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

Chapter 62

"It's also a good thing for the child. Of course, I have nothing to disagree with. It's just that the distance is far away. You have to call your sister-in-law and nephew for the adoption." The old lady only thought for a while, and nodded her head in agreement.

Not only that, she also called the maid beside her to call for someone at the other end of the big room.

Princess Hezhen was sitting in the old god's seat, with what could be considered a gentle smile on her face, which was completely different from the bewildered and crazy look she had when she entered the palace.

This is what the people at the other end of the big room saw when they arrived.

Although princess Hezhen is only the second wife's wife, she has a title of princess after all, and she is different from other people as monarchs and ministers, so even the elders and wives of the Ding family can only be honest when they see Princess Hezhen. Really please.

"It was said in the imperial decree that Xu's second daughter-in-law adopted a grandson at home. I thought Hui'er's end would be very suitable, so I asked you to discuss it." Mrs. Ding thought that this matter was very good, so she simply passed it on. Say the idea as your own.

This time, although the second house was responsible for the disaster, but because the Ding family has not yet separated, all the houses suffered together, and no one was spared.

It would be a lie to say that the Ding family did not resent Princess Hezhen, but only looking at Princess Hezhen's words, she herself is somewhat respectable in the palace, so she cannot break this marriage.

When Princess Hezhen got married, the crown prince was still standing firmly. At that time, the family who could marry the crown prince's eldest daughter was naturally not bad, so the eldest son and daughter-in-law married in when the Ding family was in its heyday were naturally knowledgeable.

Although it is inevitable to have some resentment towards Princess Hezhen, but only looking at the current appearance of Princess Hezhen, I can only grit my teeth and admit it.Calculated from left to right, if the matter is weighed this time, the ones who get the benefits are all their own children, which is a little bit off.

"It's his blessing that Hui'er is loved by his younger siblings. I'm not in good shape now, so I feel relieved to hand Huier over to my younger siblings. It's just that after Hui Er's mother is gone, he and his sister have become closer. I'm afraid After all, I'm afraid that Hui'er will be reluctant to part with my sister." If it was her own son, she would not be reluctant, but if it was just a grandson, although she would love her just as much, but after all, as long as the child can have a good future, she would not be reluctant.

But I still couldn't help probing, just to see Princess Hezhen's sincerity, whether she really wanted to adopt her own child, or it was just the old lady's wishful thinking.

Princess Hezhen was still sitting in her seat, and she couldn't help raising her eyebrows after hearing this.

At the beginning, she and this sister-in-law got along quite speculatively, but now she understands the meaning of this.

"It doesn't hinder anything. If my sister-in-law is willing, she can adopt her granddaughter together. I always have private property, so I don't care about paying an extra dowry." Facing this temptation, Princess Hezhen did not mind I care, "Two months will pass before the Supreme Emperor's longevity, and it will be a happy event for me to bring a pair of great-great-great-grandchildren to meet the Supreme Emperor."

This means that he is also willing to adopt this time.

After all, if you do not agree, you can use this talk to refuse, and there is no need to think about bringing the child into the palace.

This made the sister-in-law of the Ding family feel relieved.

My family knows about my own family affairs. When my current eldest daughter-in-law came in, the Ding family had already shown signs of decline, so relatively speaking, she came from a lower family background, with very shallow eyelids. A woman was regarded as a thorn in the side, if she hadn't protected her tightly, she would have almost had an accident.

But this is only for those who were thieves the day before yesterday and could not guard against thieves for a thousand days. As a mother-in-law or grandmother, it is not easy for her to take care of these things for the rest of her life. It may not be a bad thing if these two children are passed out this time.

She knew very well that even though she was in disaster at home because of Princess Hezhen, her family, as an iron-clad loyal old prince party, would suffer disaster sooner or later even if there was no such thing. Princess Hezhen can't be blamed entirely.

Now that the Supreme Emperor is still there, it is better to suffer because of this now than to be liquidated later.

But no matter what, just look at the attitude of the palace this time, even if it is for the sake of acting, at least they have already made an attitude, and they always protect the eldest daughter of the righteous and loyal old prince.

That's enough.

----split line----

The matter of adoption is not complicated, at least it is not complicated when both parties are willing.And because this matter actually has a holy decree, so even if the county horse did not show up, Princess Hezhen adopted the pair of children under his own name as quickly as possible.

Anyway, without saying hello to the county horse from the beginning to the end, Princess Hezhen still brought the two children to his mansion the next day.

These two children are not very old, the girl is only in her early three years old, and the boy is less than five years old, but they are already a little sensible.

At least even if they were changed to an unfamiliar environment, they still knew how not to cry or make trouble, and even the older brother knew how to coax the restless younger sister.

When he was adopted before, his younger sister Ding Qing didn't show up, but it was Brother Hui who was given Ding Yi's name and recognized his father.

Children can always soften people's hearts, especially young and sensible children. Princess Hezhen just watched the interaction between the little brother and sister, and his heart softened a little after all.

On the one hand, they sent someone to deliver the news to the palace, and on the other hand, they asked the maids and mothers around them to coax them with some good things.

As the princess of Hezhen, it is naturally impossible to hand over the booklet directly to Tu Mingxuan. This post is naturally to be handed over to the Queen Mother.

If it is really calculated, although the Queen Mother occupies the title of a grandmother, she actually has no affection for Princess Hezhen.Even when Princess Hezhen was taken in for two months, Hezhen was confinement in name, but they didn't get along very much. It's not as deep as Yuan Chun and Princess Hezhen.

But after all, the queen mother also knew that the matter on Princess Hezhen's side was probably related to the matter of her son's previous court, so she was not stingy in giving rewards, and pretended to be in harmony with her grandparents.

"I didn't know how to say that with Jane before, but now I can only confess." After all, the queen mother was still a little dissatisfied with the drama with Princess Zhen before, and the words contained It is inevitable that there will be some emotions.

"The Holy Majesty's intention is probably to show respect to the old Prince Yizhong. After all, he is the son raised by the Supreme Emperor. Although I feel awkward in my heart, I still feel distressed." Yuan Chun happened to be here with the Queen Mother, and heard this. In the end, I still have to say a few words of comfort, "This time I took the initiative to give Hezhen the main body face, it is better than giving face to Prince Yizhong in the future."

In this way, it is indeed a bargain.

This time, it is considered a grace to just let go of an empty-headed lord who is a captain of a light car. Everyone has to praise the kindness of the Holy One—but if there is a disturbance on the other side of Prince Yizhong, the price paid here will be high. .

Even if something happened on the other side of the Zhen family, the one who suffered must be Tu Mingxun.

If you think about it that way, it makes you feel better.

"Master Hezhen is a smart person, so he may not know the truth here. Although he is an uncle and nephew, he may not have much in terms of affection. There are still a few people in the line of Yizhong old prince. It is better to let her use it for herself than to give it to her half-brother." After all, she has some affection with Princess Hezhen, Yuan Chun is still willing to say something for him nice words.

The Empress Dowager was naturally aware of the problem, but it was because she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and she got acquainted with Yuan Chun, so she complained a few words.

But she was also aware of the importance of it after all, but she calmed down after being comforted by Yuan Chun.

----split line----

Since Princess Hezhen passed the news to the palace, she didn't mean to hide it from others.So when Yuanchun returned to his palace and met Tu Mingjun, he casually told the news about Princess Hezhen to him.

This is nothing shameful, it's just passing on a message, but it's something she said casually, which can't be regarded as breaking her mouth.

Tu Mingxuan really didn't care what happened to Princess Hezhen.

"Since the princess has raised another girl, I might just imitate his brother and give him the position of county monarch." After hearing about it, Tu Mingjun just casually mentioned, "The only one who is loyal to the old prince is For the two prostitute princesses, no matter how much grace there is, it doesn't matter."

Since he expressed his full affection for the princesses of the old Prince Yizhong, the Supreme Emperor would not talk to him about the promotion of Prince Yizhong and Concubine Zhen.

He gave him a little kindness before, and for this reason, the Supreme Emperor gave him a good face for two months, and became more generous in government affairs, which made Tu Minghao feel the sweetness.

After all, it is just a princess who can't threaten him at all, so it is very cost-effective to calculate it this way.

So this can be regarded as setting the tone of his actions.

"It should be considered the end of Princess Hezhen's side. If the Holy Majesty gives the princess some face again, she might as well ask the empress to give some rewards for her to distribute to the boys and girls in the other rooms of Junma's house. After all, Junma's this time What happened will definitely affect the marriage of the children in the family, and the grace given to the princess by the Holy Majesty will also allow the princess to show favor to the Junma family, and when it comes to the Supreme Emperor, it is also the meaning of the Holy Majesty to be considerate of his niece." Talking about the details He said that Tu Mingxun couldn't compare with Yuan Chun anyway, as long as he set a tone, Yuan Chun could always give several ideas in an instant without worrying about being blamed.

"Not only Princess Hezhen, but also Princess Herui. Don't forget that although she is living a good life, the Holy Majesty might as well give some rewards—her husband's family is also the family of the righteous and loyal old princess. Comparing the current situation of their family with that of Hezhen County Ma's family is also the reason for all the horse families in Ma County to be vigilant." No matter how these sisters and nieces around him can't pose a threat to Tu Mingzhen, then they should be more lenient There is no disadvantage, "Left and right are just decent, if you can win people's hearts, you will not suffer. It is just a title that lasts for one generation, so a little Lumi is nothing."

Counting the affairs of these princesses and princesses should be the queen's responsibility, but the queen probably hasn't fully adapted to her current status, and still only does those things she did when she was a princess, but it's not enough to do it This good wife.Coupled with the fact that these matters are still related to the Supreme Emperor, compared with the Queen, Tu Mingzhen trusts the advice given by Yuan Chun, the daughter of an old minister's family.

Although the national treasury is becoming more and more empty, the salaries of these virtual nobles are not high, even if ten or eight are sealed at one go, the sum of the annual salaries of these people is probably not comparable to the few days spent in the palace .No matter where the money comes from, the money will come out after a sip, which is really nothing.

Even when Tu Mingjun was still an unfavorable prince, he was not stingy with these few taels of silver.
