Once the Crown Prince Joins In

Aunt She followed Su Chaoyan to the courtyard where they lived. Tu Sijing was a concubine and the third eldest son in the family. Of course, his courtyard was not as good as that of the eldest son or the second son. The location was a little more remote. Fortunately, the courtyard did not count. It's small, but it's well-kept and quiet and elegant.

After entering the house, Su Chaoyan first asked Nanny She about the sixth sister. After knowing that the sixth sister was safe, she breathed a sigh of relief and said softly: "Mammy, the sixth sister didn't go to Daling Temple, right?"

Aunt She smiled and did not say whether it was true, but Su Chaoyan knew it well and said softly: "When Sixth Sister said she was going to Daling Temple to pray for His Highness, I felt something was wrong. Many people from the Tu family came to inquire with me. , I said I didn’t know and blocked her back. After I went back, grandma told Sixth Sister to pay attention to herself."

Aunt She smiled and nodded, "Third Miss, how are you doing at the Tu family? The Crown Princess was very concerned about her. This time, when a letter came from the Duke's Mansion in the East Palace, she immediately asked the old slave to come and visit. If not The Crown Princess was afraid that she would cause trouble to you by coming over, so she came over to take a look in person."

Su Chaoyan smiled. Xiaoliu said he would protect her at first, and now he is indeed protecting her. Knowing that she was afraid that her husband's family would be unhappy after giving birth to a daughter, how could she not understand that he supported her with both big and small gifts?

It happened that Hemerocallis came in with tea at this time. When she heard this, she said with a smile: "Mommy, you don't know that our girl gave birth to Sister Min. My wife and uncle didn't say anything, but the eldest mistress and the second mistress kept the secret. We exchanged a few words outside, but my wife said a few words, and the two of them didn't dare to say anything."

When Grandma She heard this, she looked at the third girl.

Su Chaoyan knew that Nanny She wanted to ask questions so that she could talk to Sixth Sister when she returned, so she said softly: "It's not a big deal, it's just that my husband is hard-working and hard-working. When the two families got engaged, no one knew that Sixth Sister could become the Crown Princess. , so after we got married, the two sisters-in-law were inevitably a little uncomfortable, fearing that our third wife would overwhelm them and their second wife. However, my mother-in-law is a fair person, and my father-in-law also knows what is right and wrong, so my child and I will not be wronged, which reassures my sixth sister. "

Su Chaoyan knew that the royal family was not easy to get into, and the sixth sister's life in the palace might not be smooth. As an elder sister, she could not help with anything, so she could only try not to hold the sixth sister back.

If it was her temperament, she would tolerate these little things as long as she could, but when the two sisters-in-law went too far, she would straighten her back and fight back.

Mother said that she was soft-tempered, but she could not lose the face of the Duke's palace and her sixth sister. Although she was a little scared, after fighting once, she found that her mother-in-law was fair, and her husband also supported her. I gradually became more courageous.

Thinking of this, Su Chaoyan smiled at Nanny She again and said, "Fourth sister and fifth sister were also afraid that I would be wronged, so they came to see me specially. Sixth sister has a high status and cannot go out easily. Auntie must have told sixth sister that I am very important." Well, let her not worry."

Aunt She saw that the third girl looked really good, so she said softly: "The Crown Princess is now in the royal family and her every move is attracting attention. It is difficult for her to come to visit her. When the cousin is older, the Crown Princess will invite her to the East Palace. Be a guest.”

Su Chaoyan was stunned for a moment, then smiled. She understood what the sixth sister meant. Being able to step through the door of the East Palace, among a group of sisters-in-law in the Tu family, she was naturally the top one. No one dared to show her any mercy.

Mother She went to see her cousin again. She was a small ball sleeping soundly. Her face was white and tender, and her eyebrows were straight. Fortunately, she didn't look like her father and mother. If she looked like her father, she was a dark ball. How can I find my husband's family in the future?

Grandma She praised her cousin again and again, then stood up and left.

In the main room of the Tu family, Mrs. Tu rubbed her forehead, looked at her confidant Grandma Sun, and said, "I didn't expect that the Crown Princess would have people come to visit the third family as soon as she returned to the East Palace. I usually heard that the sixth girl brought back by the Duke's Mansion and her family were I didn't quite believe that the sisters have a close relationship, but now it seems a bit believable."

Grandma Sun had served Madam since she was a little girl, and later she got married and came back to work as a housekeeper. She could not be more loyal to her Madam, so she smiled and said, "Whether it's true or not, Madam, you are not kind to Third Young Mistress. The eldest mistress and the second young mistress are the same. You raised the third young master with your own hands, and the third young master is the most filial to you. Besides, the third young mistress has a really good temper, and the princess will definitely not be able to find fault with her."

Mrs. Tu smiled when she heard this, "Aunt Zhang was also a little girl by my side back then. Later I became my aunt. She was an honest woman, but her life was not good. Naturally, I have to take care of her children. , The third child has no other problems except that he talks a little less."

When Grandma Sun heard this, she smiled and said: "The third young master, despite being a talker, is also considerate to the third young lady. The third young lady was born white and tender. I saw that the third young master liked it very much. Last time when the old slave came over, he was very considerate." Look at the third young master holding her. Don’t worry. The third young master refused to take a concubine when the third young master was pregnant. The young couple have a good relationship, so what do you have to worry about? "

Mrs. Tu sighed softly when she heard this, "Let's talk about it later."

The relationship between the couple was good when they were young, but as they grew older, it became difficult to say that. Behind the Su family was the Duke of Qi and the Crown Princess. She only hoped that her daughter-in-law would give birth to a son next time. Even if the third child wears red sleeves and adds fragrance, there won't be any trouble.

Who would have thought that the Duke of Qi would have a princess. If he had known about it earlier, the relationship might not have ended.

Others think that their family has climbed onto a high branch, but she thinks that Qi Dafei is not a coincidence, and it may not be a good thing. Let's wait and see.

On the other side, Grandma She returned to the East Palace and explained the situation in detail.

After hearing this, Su Xinyi said with a smile: "I thought the third brother-in-law was kind at first, but now I don't take him away."

Grandma She smiled and said: "Third aunt is a concubine. Although Mrs. Tu treats him kindly, he can't compare with his own son. Fortunately, third aunt has his own way. After a few years, third aunt becomes more and more stable, and the third girl's Life will be better.”

No matter how much the Crown Princess supports her sister, she will not be as good as the third girl's own family.

Su Xinyi naturally understood what Nanny She meant, so she smiled and nodded, "That's what Nanny said."

She understands this truth. It is better to rely on herself than anyone else.

Su Xinyi felt relieved knowing that the third sister was living a good life. The next day, instead of taking Aunt She with her, she took Delphinium to Yuanhui Palace to pay respects to the queen and learn palace affairs at the same time.

Aunt She went to inquire about the affairs of Yuling Temple and Prince Xiang's Mansion.

In Yuanhui Palace, Su Xinyi sat aside with a smile on her face, watching the Queen and the concubines in the harem confront each other with smiles on their faces, but every word they spoke was thorny.

As a junior, Su Xinyi just needs to keep smiling.

However, Concubine Li didn't like her and tried to test her about leaving the palace.

"The Crown Princess has lived in Daling Temple for such a long time, and her face looks rosier than before." After Concubine Li finished fighting with the Queen, her eyes fell on Su Xinyi.

She didn't believe that Su Xinyi would go to Daling Temple to pray. She also sent people to Daling Temple to inquire about it. Unfortunately, Zhang Jian was tightly guarded there and found nothing.

When Su Xinyi heard this, she looked at Concubine Li and said, "I don't dare to take these words seriously. The clothes I wear are much looser when I come back this time. My mother is very distressed. She even asked Si Yi to go to the East Palace to make new clothes for me." .”

The queen had never said this, but at this moment Su Xinyi was using her to fight against Concubine Li. The two of them were now on the same page, so naturally they would not tear her down, so they said with a straight face: "Concubine Li, look at the Crown Princess. She has such a thin face, and the clothes she wears are shaking on her body, even if you are trying to find fault with her, you still have to choose something decent."

Su Xinyi thought to herself, no wonder Grandma She chose the loosest clothes for her to wear today. Sure enough, Jiang is old and hot, and Grandma is powerful.

Concubine Qi Xian and Concubine Ruan Ming kept silent, only bowed their heads to drink tea, and resolutely refused to interfere. Other concubines with lower status were not qualified to come to the queen to pay her respects. The palace looked lively, but in fact there were not many people.

The emperor was a stingy person, and he did not give out high-ranking positions easily, nor did he change people easily. After so many years, the concubines with high-ranking positions in the harem still had the same faces.

Concubine Li sneered after hearing the Queen's words, "Empress, you are really hurting to see the Crown Princess now."

That's what he said, but there was a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

After all, everyone knows that the Queen is the successor, and how deep the relationship between mother-in-law and mother-in-law can be as fragile as the paper shell of the Crown Princess.

Su Xinyi looked at Concubine Li and said solemnly: "What the Concubine said is that I always keep in mind the kindness my mother has towards me, and I dare not forget it at all. Speaking of which, when we came back from Ding'an Guard, His Highness Prince Xiang brought When I came back, Miss Fuyun asked me to take more care of her on the way back. His Royal Highness, Prince Xiang, treated Miss Fuyun so favorably as his savior. I think the imperial concubine must also think highly of her."

Isn’t that just disgusting?

Who doesn't know yet.

Who doesn't know that Concubine Li hates Fuyun, so Su Xinyi pointed out Fuyun's life-saving grace to Prince Xiang. Concubine Li treated her harshly, which was heartless and unjust, but she had saved her son.

Concubine Li's face froze, and the queen felt very happy when she heard this. She really liked Su Xinyi at this moment. As long as Su Xinyi didn't quarrel with her, it would be a relief.

"The Crown Princess is kind-hearted. You are still thinking about what King Xiang said at the time. Speaking of which, I am also very curious about Miss Fuyun. When King Xiang has time to bring her in for a look, after all, she is The savior of King Xiang, I am the queen mother of King Xiang after all, so I must reward that girl well."

The queen was very embarrassed. Why didn't he think of it at the beginning? If he wanted to disgust Concubine Li, he should give Fu Yun a good face. Didn't Concubine Li not like Fu Yun?

She just promoted her, it was a mistake, it was a mistake, why didn't she think of it.

Sure enough, Su Xinyi's brain was so good that she could hit the snake seven inches away. She didn't expect why she was so dark under the lamp. Fortunately, it's not too late now.

Concubine Li was so angry that she couldn't stand it anymore because of the Queen and the Crown Princess's singing. She immediately stood up and left, her sleeves fluttering in the wind as she left.

Concubine Ruan Ming and Concubine Qi Xian immediately stood up and left. The queen did not embarrass them and let them go with a wave of her hand.

After leaving Yuanhui Palace, Concubine Qi Xian breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Concubine Ruan Ming and whispered: "What do you think is going on between the Queen and the Crown Princess? Why does it look wrong to me?"

Concubine Ruan Ming naturally saw it. This was obviously the Queen and the Crown Princess joining forces.

In the past, the prince was alone, and he, as a prince, could not interfere with the affairs of the harem, but now that he had a wife and a princess, it was different.

It was obvious that the Queen and the Crown Princess were not getting along well before, but now...

I also remembered that this time the Crown Princess went to Daling Temple to pray for the Crown Prince. The Queen not only agreed with this matter, but also praised the Crown Princess's move many times in the harem...

The two looked at each other and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Concubine Ruan Ming did not want to talk to Concubine Qi Xian about these things. She was a little panicked. If the queen really joined forces with the East Palace, the balance of the harem would be suddenly broken.

The Queen had not always wanted to push her son to the throne of Crown Prince, so why would she join forces with the Crown Princess now?

Concubine Qi Xian also felt a little uncomfortable. She looked at Concubine Ruan Ming and said, "No matter what, we live our lives. Sister Ming Concubine, I will take the first step."

Concubine Ruan Ming smiled softly, "Sister Concubine Xian, walk slowly."

Concubine Qi Xian walked back to her Zhaoyang Palace with neither light nor heavy steps. After returning, she asked her cronies to call her son into the palace.

King Jing happened to be on errands, and it took him a long time before he entered the palace.

As soon as Concubine Qi Xian saw her son, she quickly told him what happened today and said in a deep voice: "What do you think will happen if the Queen really joins forces with the Crown Princess?"

King Jing looked at his mother-in-law's frowning expression and said nonchalantly: "Whatever you did in the past will be the same in the future. Concubine Li will definitely not give up. Don't get involved. Donggong Don't come close over there, the Queen and Prince Rong are not easy to mess with, so don't get yourself into trouble."

After hearing what her son said, Concubine Qi Xian was a little unconvinced. They were all His Majesty's sons, but His Majesty's partiality made her afraid to express her anger.

The Crown Prince sat on the throne of the Crown Prince at a young age, and Prince Rong was His Majesty’s favorite. Prince Xiang was protected by his doting mother-in-law, Concubine Li. In comparison, his son was not outstanding in his studies, and he was not outstanding in his studies. He is valued and loved by His Majesty, but the relationship between father and son is ordinary, and he has no foundation or ability to fight.

Concubine Qi Xian couldn't help but feel a little frustrated. She looked at her son and said, "You are right, we can live our own lives without any help." After saying this, "How do you choose between Concubine Ming and King Wu?"

King Jing updated, "Third brother has a temper like a boring donkey. Who knows what he thinks, but Concubine Ming is not a troublemaker. She is probably about the same as us."

Concubine Qi Xian sighed again, "I heard that His Majesty asked the Crown Princess to help the Queen share the palace affairs. It's really strange that someone as domineering as the Queen agreed."

King Jing was stunned, "Father, let the Crown Princess share the palace affairs?"

Concubine Qi Xian nodded slightly, "What the Queen said today, what do you think is going on? I'm afraid the harem is not stable."
