Quick wear is not a cannon fodder

Although the Wang family was quite good at comforting themselves, saying that it was because the Queen Mother passed away and the Wang family was still in mourning period, so no one else came.

In fact, this is not the case at all. When Grandma Wang was in her natal family, Mrs. Wang passed away, and the family was still busy. Many people even wanted to take advantage of the Wang family's funeral to give gifts so as to catch up with the Wang family. As a result, the Wang family was even busier than usual. It's much more lively, unlike the Wang family now. After the death of the Queen Mother, not only did no one take advantage of this opportunity to find excuses to come and go, but the family even became deserted. Isn't it because of the decline of the Wang family.

In fact, the attitude of people in the capital towards Duke Cheng'en's Mansion has indeed changed, and it's not that Grandma Wang thinks too much.

If nothing else, the Zhou family was overjoyed when they heard that the Queen Mother had passed away. If the third prince hadn't taken the throne yet, the Zhou family knew they couldn't offend anyone and made more enemies, so they didn't cause any trouble to the Wang family for the time being. Otherwise, the Wang family would not only decline, but the Zhou family would also cause trouble.

It’s no wonder that the Zhou family wanted to cause trouble for Duke Cheng’en. They were deceived by the ministers of the previous dynasty and thought that the reason why their daughter did not become the queen was because of the Queen Mother’s obstruction. Therefore, the Zhou family treated the Queen Mother and her natal family , has great opinions, and will definitely cause trouble for the Wang family if given the chance.

The fact that the Zhou family is not looking does not mean that others are not looking.

If An Ran wants to make some small moves, he will take action naturally.

An Ran didn't do any other tricks except spreading the news about Grandma Wang beating her concubine.

In fact, she could have people spread the news about Aunt Wang and the Kefu family, because this kind of talk is very popular in the house now, but An Ran didn't want to spread rumors, so she only spread the news about Aunt Wang beating her concubine. If anything else, this is at least true.

In the past, Mrs. Wang's beating of concubines was not widely spread. Firstly, the Wang family suppressed it for the sake of reputation. Other families were afraid of offending the Wang family and did not dare to spread the news. Secondly, the Cheng'en government also suppressed it, so as not to The Wang family blamed Duke Cheng'en's housekeeper for not doing a good job, and it was rumored that such a thing was bad for the reputation of the Wang family. After all, Duke Cheng'en's house would have to rely on the Wang family for support in the future.

However, they were all controlled and controlled by the government. They thought that as long as the government controlled it, people outside would not know about it, so they did not control the private sector. Of course, they could not control the private sector. After all, , Defending the people's mouth is better than guarding the river.

And An Ran knows that the countryside surrounds the city. Although this public opinion is not the same as that in the countryside, it is similar in nature. The scope of the public is large. When there is more public discussion, the Wang family and the Cheng'en government will overwhelm the government. The discussion inside can't suppress the discussion outside. In the end, Grandma Wang's reputation will still be bad.

Unless Grandma Wang no longer has any bad intentions, otherwise, if she hits someone once, she will spread the word outside. As time goes by and the number of times increases, her reputation will become stinky.

And if she wants to maintain a good reputation, she can't continue to beat people. In this way, An Ran can indirectly save other people. I believe that Grandma Wang's reputation for beating concubines at every turn has spread. She doesn't want her reputation to continue to get worse. , she can only restrain herself a little, and then her purpose of saving people will be achieved.

It has to be said that An Ran's trick was quite useful. Not long after, the story of Grandma Wang beating his concubine gradually spread outside. However, because it was initially spread among the lower class people, the Wang family He and Cheng'en Duke's Mansion didn't notice it for a while.

Not to mention that Grandma Wang didn't know that a public opinion storm was brewing outside that was extremely unfavorable to her. She only said that on An Ran's side, Si Yan was in mourning in the palace, and the Queen Mother soon mourned. This was normal, because the royal family could not Those who have been mourning, like the emperor Daxing, only have to mourn for twenty-seven days, with one day replacing one month. The reason is also very simple, because the emperor cannot stay away from the court for too long. In order to prevent anything from happening to the court, he can only use the sky to replace the month. .

The emperor only stayed in mourning for twenty-seven days, so naturally the queen mother would not stay in mourning for too long. After the mourning, Si Yan returned home.

Although the mourning time in the palace will not be too long, it does not mean that Si Yan and others do not have to continue to mourn. It is just that the emperor does not have time to watch all the time, so the mourning will be announced soon, but others, such as the third prince and others, still have to stay in their own homes. In the mansion, the mourning continues according to the rules.

But Si Yan is a grandson, so he only has to guard it for one year.

So even though he came back, Si Yan still couldn't sleep with An Ran because he had a filial piety period in the next year. He had to wait until next year.

Si Yan couldn't help but feel depressed when he thought about the fact that he would not be able to eat in the next year. After all, he was the only one who had fun, but something like this happened and he couldn't eat. How could he not be depressed?

He deliberately disobeys these rules and does whatever he wants with An Ran - Si Yan is a bit lawless, but he can really do this - but unfortunately An Ran doesn't cooperate, and his mother-in-law sends someone to stop him. He just wants to be with An Ran There was nothing I could do about it, so I could only give it up in frustration.

However, Si Yan's dissatisfied look was still noticed by others, so some people wanted to set a trap on him.

Now that the Queen Mother has passed away, if Si Yan does anything during the mourning period, it will become a huge stain. It will definitely become a sharp sword in the hands of political opponents to attack him, making it impossible for Si Yan to obtain the position of crown prince.

Concubine Zhou Huang was afraid that if her son couldn't hold on, he would do something to An Ran, and that she would be exposed, which would be detrimental to future competition for the throne, so she sent someone to watch over An Ran so that she could stop Si Yan at any time.

But she forgot that An Ran was quite honest and wouldn't do anything she was afraid of. It was Si Yan's friends, who were really unpredictable about what they would do with Si Yan.

In particular, these cuckold friends are just plastic friends who come to Si Yan for profit because they see Si Yan's biological mother being favored. How can they really care about him? Some even wish that something would happen to him. After all, there are always a lot of jealous people in this world. Seeing that Si Yan was reborn well and living a good life, there are many people who will be jealous of him and want to see him suffer misfortune. These people, in Under the temptation of fame and fortune, there are also people who want to help others harm Si Yan.

Although they were with Si Yan because they wanted to benefit from Si Yan, who was favored by him, they shouldn't harm him. After all, they had harmed him miserably and they had no legs to hug him. Isn't this bad?

However, if someone promises them more benefits, then they will still harm Si Yan. When Si Yan falls, they will just take care of someone else.

Because of this, someone came over to ask Si Yan to hang out.

Si Yan had long been bored at the mourning in the mansion. Seeing someone asking him to go out to play, he pretended to refuse, saying that he had to attend the mourning and could not go out. However, after the other party invited him a few more times, Si Yan dropped the matter of mourning. I went aside and went out with the man.

Of course, the fact that Si Yan was moved so easily was actually related to the fact that he didn't want to stay in mourning from the bottom of his heart.
