It's Hard to Be the Concubine of the Red Chamber

Chapter 58

Because of the confinement period, Princess Hezhen just lay on the couch, very emaciated, even when she saw Yuan Chun coming in, she just turned her head and nodded slightly.

Although it was because of the confinement period that he couldn't get up, if this appearance fell into the eyes of others, it would inevitably appear a little arrogant.

But Yuan Chun didn't care.

"I didn't see it when the princess entered the palace to pay her respects before. I heard that the Supreme Emperor and the Holy One specially took the princess back to the palace to recuperate for a while. Although it didn't alarm others, I have some face with the empress dowager, so I got the news. That's why I thought about taking the liberty to visit." Since there were no tables and chairs in the room, Yuan Chun didn't see him, so he simply sat on the edge of the bed.

Princess Hezhen's expression was somewhat surprised.

"I'm sorry to bother the emperor to worry about it." Talking to Princess Zhen is still polite, not as proud as the one Yuan Chun saw before, "I'm not clean now, but I don't want to disturb too many people. Concubine Xian doesn't have to Thank you very much."

After all, in the eyes of most people, confinement is originally an unclean thing. Generally speaking, young women are very taboo about it, for fear of getting bad luck—and Yuan Chun not only came to visit in person, but even a little She didn't hesitate to sit directly on the edge of the bed, which naturally surprised her.

"It's not a shock. I have stayed with the empress dowager for a while, and I always come to pay my respects to the empress every now and then. We are about the same age, and the sage also wanted me to accompany the princess." Although Yuan Chun was old It is also younger than Princess Hezhen, but after all, it is the most similar age to Princess Hezhen in the harem.

Although Tu Mingjun didn't talk to Yuanchun personally, he sent people around him to remind Yuanchun that "Hezhen will probably stay in the palace for a while, so it's a good idea to visit the princess at the queen mother's place for a while." So Yuan Chun simply came here generously.

He didn't even bother to wait for confinement with Princess Zhen.

It is doomed to have no children in this life, so there is no need to be taboo about this so-called uncleanness.

If Yuan Chun didn't know what happened here at the beginning, now that he met Princess Hezhen, Yuan Chun can probably guess a little bit.

It is true that he and Princess Zhen ran to the queen to ask for peace before, and it was probably a bit of a breakdown, but now that he can break the pot and sue Junma's house in front of the emperor, there must be someone behind the scenes.

But just look at the place where she lives now. The person who joins forces with Princess Hezhen is either Tu Mingjun or the Queen Mother, so don't think of it as a third person.

Thinking of this, Yuan Chun felt a little relieved.

If it is said how much Tu Mingxuan has deep feelings for the old Prince Yizhong, Yuan Chun is determined not to believe it. Even Princess Hezhen, at least half of it is because of the agreement between Princess Hezhen and Tu Mingxuan. It was Tu Mingjun who was willing to make such a generous move.

Of course, there may be a part or two in this because of the incense of the abolished princess, but this is by no means the main reason.

If it's just that Tu Mingxuan did something in it, it would be better than the Taishang Emperor's thunderous anger and began to liquidate the status quo of the orphans of the Yizhong old prince.

At least Tu Mingxun will never know Qin Keqing's identity, nor will he care about the life and death of Prince Zhong's outer children.

Princess Hezhen is also a smart person who understands current affairs, whether she knows Yuan Chun's origin or not, since Yuan Chun, as the concubine of Tu Mingjun, has shown her sincere kindness to her, she does not take Joe, but is generous accepted this kindness.

"Since that's the case, then I'll trouble Concubine Xian." Princess Hezhen nodded slightly, as a response to Yuan Chun's kindness.

At the beginning, she regretted that her mother did not give birth to a male heir to her father, but now it seems that it is not a bad thing. At least the Holy Majesty can make a deal with the deposed prince's legitimate daughter, but it is impossible to accommodate the deposed prince's legitimate son.

"It's not too much trouble. The Holy Majesty is always thinking about you. After getting the news of the princess, he wanted to ask the empress to inquire about the news of the princess Herui. It can be seen that he is the flesh and blood of his uncle and nephew." Yuan Chun smiled. Continue to show kindness to the other person.

Princess Hezhen's biological parents are gone, and the only thing she cares about most is probably the younger sister. As for the other half-brothers, she cares only a little bit.

Hearing Yuan Chun's words, Princess Hezhen's expression unavoidably relaxed a little subconsciously.

People are always selfish.For Princess Hezhen, the most important thing in this world is naturally her own flesh and blood.And in the absence of children and parents, the closest one is only such a direct sister.

"Princess Herui is back in her body now, so it can be seen that life is not bad." Because Princess Hezhen's life is not good, so Yuan Chun didn't want to say much, lest he might irritate the other party, he could only say no. It's just bad.

In fact, Princess He Rui's life is actually very good.

There is no need for the heirs of Princess Hezhen to be difficult, but Princess Herui has given birth to four sons and one daughter in a row in seven or eight years, spreading branches and leaves for the husband's family with only one seedling - even if the grandmother is still at this point , just looking at the many children she gave birth to, it can be seen that life is not bad.

At least it's much better than Hezhen County.

"That's right, her mother-in-law is gone, and the great-grandmother is her own grandmother, and she doesn't even have a sister-in-law to compare with. The one who wants to come here is more comfortable than me." If the old prince Yizhong still stood firmly, and Zhen The princess's marriage seems to be better naturally, but under the current situation, it seems that the marriage with Princess Rui is more happy.

In other words, when Princess Hezhen got married, her parents were still there, so naturally she never considered that one day she would lose her backer.When Princess He Rui got married, although her father was still there, her mother's health was already very bad.

The daughter's status after marriage depends largely on the mother's intentions - no one can determine what the crown prince's intentions will be after the crown prince is gone, so the original marriage with Rui was to promote the crown prince. Her natal family, on the other hand, is also the protection of Princess Herui.

Yuan Chun didn't elaborate on this, but Princess Hezhen can still hear Yuan Chun's voice-over.

She can only express helplessness in this regard, and can only sigh that it was originally a trick of good fortune.

"Uncle Huang told me that he asked me to find a little baby in the clan to adopt Yi'er's name. Firstly, it would make my future dependable, and secondly, it would also leave some incense for Yier in the future. Calculated in this way, it would be It's not too bad." Princess Hezhen sighed, with a look of loneliness that could not be concealed.

Although it is not bad, it is still different compared to Princess Herui who has both sons and daughters.

No matter how caringly raised this adopted child is, it is still different from his own flesh and blood.

It's just that there is no way to do it, and I can only blame myself for not being lucky enough.

After hearing what Princess Hezhen said, Yuan Chun understood.

The left and right are adoptive children, so there is no difference between adopting a son or a grandson to Princess Hezhen—but if it is an adoptive grandson, the son of Princess Hezhen will still have the incense of descendants in the future. Stronger than a lonely one under the ground.

"If the left and right children are cared for, they are probably no different from their own. This is also the kindness of the princess." Yuan Chun smiled, but reminded Princess Hezhen without any trace, "Anyway, they are adopted. The princess might as well ask your mother-in-law to choose a younger one among the grandchildren of Junma's brothers. Firstly, it is closer in blood and more considerate, and secondly, it is also a way to show kindness to the family. I originally thought It was also brought up by a wealthy family. Things outside are not the same as those of the royal family. To live in this kind of family, you have to worry about the views of the clan. Even if the emperor is considerate of the princess, it is impossible to cover everything in the end. It’s all about gaining face, so why not give the family a little sweetness, it’s also for the sake of the future.”

Princess Hezhen made such a fuss this time, but it ruined the face of her husband's family. Tu Mingjun was willing to support Princess Hezhen, but her future life was her own.Both left and right have adopted a child, and she doesn't want to have her husband's concubine, but it doesn't hinder her from giving her husband's family some sweetness.

Rather than letting Tu Ming make a will, it would be better for her to softly pick someone out of her husband's brother's children and grandchildren.

"Although the princess is married, there is a difference between the monarch and his ministers. I probably don't get close to my husband's family. I saw something at my mother's house, which may give some enlightenment to the princess. Afterwards, the status of the new daughter-in-law is also relevant, but more depends on the mother-in-law's wishes. I thought that although the princess is not a bride, I don't need to ask the county horse's family in the future, but for the sake of children and grandchildren, this family has nothing to do with everything. The principle of Xing is always the same." Even Princess Hezhen, with the name of a super-extraordinary wife, has been different from her husband's monarch and ministers all her life, but in the future, her children and grandchildren will never be as extraordinary and refined as her. In this case, it is imperative to ease the conflict with her husband's family.

Compared with Tu Mingxuan who can give Princess Hezhen a bright face, although Yuan Chun's suggestion is not a direct help, it can give Princess Hezhen the inner comfort.

Although this suggestion seems to be quite aggrieved, and it sounds a bit unpleasant to Princess Hezhen, who has suffered a lot of grievances from her husband's family, but fortunately, Princess Hezhen has a calm and tenacious temperament. Thinking about it carefully, it is actually more considerate than Tu Mingjun's help.

——To be honest, if she could think of these things in her husband's house before, probably this time she wouldn't have to go to the palace to sell herself miserably in order to save her face.

Nine times out of ten, life is unsatisfactory. Although face and face are both important, for truly smart people, it is better to be comfortable on the inside than to be bright on the face.

Princess Hezhen came back and made a big fuss in the palace. Although the superior was willing to vent her anger to give her a face, but it really trampled her husband's family under her feet.

That is, she has gained real benefits, but there is no precedent for the eldest daughter and Li to remarry in this dynasty, and she is not young, and she will always return to her husband's house to live in the future, and it is impossible to stay with her uncle for the rest of her life. Home life.

After thinking about it, I know that after she leaves the palace, there is no way her husband's family will give her a good face.

Rather than relying on the support of the old emperor and the uncle who doesn't know how much affection she has for her for the rest of her life, it's better for her to stand up on her own and live comfortably on her own ability.
