"Mom, it's all my daughter-in-law's fault. Please don't be angry. It's not going to hurt your body!"
The beautiful woman in palace attire is delicate and timid, and the words she speaks are even more humble.
He Tiantian: ...Oh, am I dressed as a mother-in-law this time?
I became the kind of vicious mother-in-law in the best novels? The villainous old woman?
He Tiantian lowered her eyelids calmly and raised her hand slightly, wanting to see if this body was really old.
But what caught his eye was a fair and slender hand.
No dryness, no wrinkles, and no age spots.
This body shouldn't be too old.
He Tiantian thought about it and realized again: It was so early to get married in ancient times.
You can get married when you are fifteen or sixteen, and you can become a grandmother when you are in your thirties.
Therefore, even if you have a daughter-in-law, it does not mean that this body is that of an old woman.
Besides, in addition to the original wife, there may also be a step-wife filling the house.
In this way, the original owner may be younger.
but--
He Tiantian squinted her eyes and turned her appraising gaze to the woman in palace clothes not far away.
This woman looks pampered and pampered.
Although she looks a little timid, it can be seen from her temperament, makeup, clothing, etc. that the conditions of her native family should be very good.
Maybe she is some kind of noble lady.
But such a noble person is kneeling humbly on the ground at this moment. Even if the mother-in-law is an elder, the respect of the daughter-in-law is too much.
Or, the original owner was so "powerful" that he could even handle his daughter-in-law who was born into a noble family.
Or, the daughter-in-law is too weak, she has a strong natal family, but she still acts lowly in front of her mother-in-law.
Thinking about the villain scripts that He Tiantian has received all year round, she has every reason to believe that the original protagonist is not a fuel-saving lamp.
Dominating and even bullying one's daughter-in-law is commonplace.
Otherwise, there would be no obvious fear in the daughter-in-law's expression.
It's not that the younger generation is afraid of their elders, but that they seem to have seen some old man-eating witch.
He Tiantian:......
Rubbing her eyebrows, she didn't want to complain all the time.
However, being a villain is really not a pleasant experience.
"Little D, please give me the script!"
Since he is a villain, it is appropriate for him to be domineering.
He Tiantian ignored the pleading of the woman in palace attire, closed her eyes and began to absorb the plot.
"Okay! The plot is being transmitted!"
Little D’s classmate seemed to have forgotten how he cried just now, and turned into a cute little assistant again.
Soon, He Tiantian received the script.
There was no disturbance in her heart, and she even wanted to laugh a little.
Humph, there is really no creativity at all, villain, villain, villain again!
Creative?
It’s just a task, what more “creativity” do you want?
Classmate Little D silently vomited in the depths of his core, and then protested: "Tiantian, it's not like you are completely uncreative. This time, the biggest villain is not you -"
Before Little D could finish what he said, He Tiantian replied, "Yes, the big villain is not me, but my cheap son!"
Well, this time the script can be described in one sentence: My son is a traitor.
Traitor!
Not only did he take bribes and bend the law to frame a loyal minister, but he actually opened the door to the thief and recognized the thief as his father.
Basically, He Tiantian's unlucky son committed all the crimes of treacherous ministers that you see in history books.
In addition to this kind of sin against the country and the nation, he is also an ungrateful, despicable and shameless Phoenix Man, a white-eyed wolf.
In the words of later generations, He Xi, the son of the original owner, was a top-notch scumbag.
He Xi was born in poverty and lost his father when he was young. It was his widowed mother who raised the three siblings alone.
Therefore, He Xi is very filial to his mother, almost to the point of foolish filial piety.
He is a filial son, which is understandable, after all, it is not easy for a widowed mother.
But he often used the excuse that "it's not easy for my mother" to force his noble wife and several children to become slaves to the widowed mother, which was a bit excessive.
In future generations, he will be a proper mama's boy and a foolish and filial boy.
However, He Xi is very good at pretending. He has been smart since he was a child, and his widowed mother gave him a hard time to study, and he really got it.
He passed the scholar examination at the age of thirteen, and passed the imperial examination at the age of fifteen. At the age of sixteen, the imperial court happened to open the imperial examination, and he passed the imperial examination directly.
A sixteen-year-old Jinshi can definitely be called a handsome young man.
And He Xi is not bad looking. Although she comes from a rural background, she is tall, fair-skinned, and has bright and charming peach blossom eyes.
During the palace examination, the saint fell in love with this young and handsome boy at first sight and directly selected him to be the courtier.
When the champion and others were riding horses to show off, He Xi was the most dazzling among the three, attracting countless girls to throw flowers and fruits, and even his hat was knocked off.
Among the many girls who were watching, there were also some ladies who were riding in carriages or sitting on the second floors of shops along the street.
Seeing Tan Hua Lang's young and handsome appearance, the ladies of marriageable age were a little moved.
The He family is poor, and He Xi is the eldest son raised by a widowed mother, but he is good-looking, and he has also won the title of Tanhualang, and his future should be good.
Therefore, some powerful people had their thoughts moved.
Among them, the one with the highest status and the most favored one is none other than Princess Ankang.
Princess Ankang is not the prince's daughter, but the daughter of the sage's direct eldest sister, Princess Yongchang.
The saint and Princess Yongchang were born from the same mother, but their biological mother was not favored.
When the saint was still a prince, he was a small and transparent existence.
In order to be able to help her younger brother, the eldest princess Yongchang tried every means to marry the eldest son of Duke Wei.
Duke Wei is one of the founding fathers of the country and one of the few nobles with a large military force.
The reputation of Guo Jiajun resounded throughout the Great Xia Dynasty, and he was the most feared magic weapon of the Hulu.
With the support of the Guo family and the planning of the eldest princess Yongchang and the saint's siblings, the saint finally succeeded to the throne.
After the saint won the throne, he conferred the title of eldest princess on his eldest sister and granted her to thousands of households in the city.
The consort Guo Hong was promoted to general and commanded a hundred thousand northwest troops to guard the border for the imperial court.
Princess Yongchang's eldest son and second son also had family backgrounds, and they were awarded the rank of Imperial Guard as soon as they were born.
When you grow up, your future is even more limitless.
Princess Ankang is the youngest and only daughter of Princess Yongchang.
Back then, when the eldest princess Yongchang was seven or eight months pregnant, she happened to catch up with King Li's rebellion. In order to save her, the eldest princess Yongchang was seriously injured.
Her life was hanging by a thread when she gave birth to Princess Ankang. She couldn't bear to have her daughter be called a "mother-killer" right after she was born. Princess Yongchang gritted her teeth and endured it for three days before she finally died.
Princess Ankang was born prematurely and was physically weak. When she first landed, she was just like a kitten.
The saint was already grateful for his sister's sacrifice and life-saving grace, but now that he saw his sister's little niece in exchange for his life, his heart was melted.
He directly regarded the child as his biological daughter, kept her in the palace, and was raised by himself and the Queen Mother personally.
The child finally reached the age of five, and it seemed that she was no longer prone to die at an early age. The saint named her the Princess of Ankang, and granted her a household of thousands of households. He hoped that she would live a safe and prosperous life, with no worries about food and clothing.
Princess Ankang is unfortunate. Her biological mother died young and her father is not around.
She was lucky enough to be pampered and favored as a darling by the most powerful mother and son in the Great Xia Dynasty since she was a child.
Moreover, she is a woman. Although her surname is Guo, she will not inherit the Guo family or get involved in the power struggle. Let alone the nobles and princes, even the courtiers will allow the royal family to treat her with all kinds of favors.
It can be said that as long as the Great Xia Dynasty does not fall, and as long as Princess Ankang does not rebel, she can always enjoy wealth and glory.
Her husband and children can also be protected by the emperor's grace.
She is not a princess, but she has grace and dignity that surpasses that of a princess.
You know, after Guo's consort, the saints began to suppress the power of the consort.
As long as the master is the master, there will definitely be wealth and honor, but the actual power will not be certain. Civil servants cannot join the cabinet, and military generals cannot lead troops to fight.
Princess Ankang has no such restrictions. She is just a princess, but she is deeply loved by the Queen Mother and the Emperor. Even several princes are very friendly to her.
There is a huge Guo family behind her.
Although the saint began to suppress the generals, he still showed some affection for his brother-in-law Guo Hong.
There was no attempt to seize his military power, but allowed him to continue guarding the border.
Of course, all the people of the huge Weiguo Duke's mansion, with more than a hundred people, stayed in the capital.
Guo Hong stayed alone in the northwest. If the concubine beside him became pregnant, he would be sent back as soon as possible.
The sage was wary of Guo Hong, but he always doted on Princess Ankang, responded to her requests, and was obedient.
If it were anyone else, he would probably be spoiled by the supreme mother and son in the palace and turn into a lawless and dandy prince.
However, Princess Ankang is weak by nature. Even if no one dares to provoke her in the harem, she is like a weak, delicate little white flower.
A little white flower in the true sense of the word, she has no scheming, is simple and kind.
There is an aura of pity from the inside out.
She is also like a little white rabbit, innocent and harmless, but timid.
She obviously has the resources to be a female overlord, but she shrinks her body every day, and turns pale with fright at the slightest sign of trouble.
Both the Queen Mother and the Saint were very sad.
The girl is timid and soft-tempered. When she was a child, she didn't show off much, but she was a bit cute.
But as Princess Ankang grew older day by day, and it was time to get her haircut, the Queen Mother and her son discovered the problem——
My child is so weak and timid, and if he marries someone, he may be bullied even if he has their support.
Needless to say, aristocratic families have more rules and more people.
And where there are many people, there will be disputes. Princess Ankang's cowardly appearance will definitely be plotted to the bone.
The Queen Mother and the Saint were not at ease finding a family with a small family. Wouldn't it be even more disgusting if they met a bastard who was a hard-fed person?
Unlike an aristocratic family, although the rules of an aristocratic family are cumbersome, they can still protect the interests of the head wife.
After all, the rules are there, and the children of aristocratic families have grown up following the rules since they were young, so they also follow the rules deep down.
It's different for the new rich. There are no family rules or family traditions to speak of. It's all about character.
Besides, those newly promoted to poor families were indeed a bit shabby, and neither the Queen Mother nor the Saint wanted to wrong the children they raised with their own hands.
The mother and son were in a dilemma. For a while, Princess Ankang's marriage became their top concern.
At this moment, He Xi, the scumbag son of the original owner, appeared.
Although the He family can't even be called a poor family, they are just extremely poor, but He Xi's personal conditions are good enough.
Moreover, He Xi was raised by a widowed mother.
No matter what age, a woman who did not remarry after her husband passed away, but took great pains to raise three children by herself, and also taught her eldest son to be a talented person, is worthy of respect.
Especially in ancient times, the original owner He Tian could be called a chaste and martyr woman, a good wife and mother respected by the mainstream of society.
After the husband dies, being able to maintain integrity for her husband can definitely be called a virtuous man.
I can't read a single word, but I can raise a sixteen-year-old Tanhualang. The other two children are also filial and well-behaved, which is enough to be called a virtuous man.
Therefore, in the eyes of the world, the character and knowledge of the original owner, He Tian, are absolutely reliable.
Even the saint and the queen mother could not help but nod secretly after hearing the He family's story.
And the most important thing is that Princess Ankang fell in love with He Xi at first sight.
The timid and cowardly little white rabbit is also a face-controller.
No matter how many conditions or worries, they are not worth Princess Ankang's "I like it"!
After some investigation, the Saint and the Queen Mother repeatedly confirmed that He Tian and He Xi, mother and son, had good character, especially He Tian, who was also a sickly and kind-hearted woman.
Although she was not the same as the widowed mother in the world's impression - either fierce or withdrawn, the Queen Mother was even happier.
My grandson is also a frail girl, so it shouldn't be too difficult to get along with her mother-in-law, who is also frail.
Besides, He Tian's health is not good and she is old. How long can she live?
The person who really wants to spend the rest of her life with Ankang is her husband.
As long as He Xi treats Ankang well, the couple is happy, and they have a few more children in the future, Ankang's life will be complete.
However, subsequent facts proved that both the Queen Mother and the Saint were mistaken.
He Xi is basically a money wolf in sheep's clothing.
His kindness, integrity, and gentleness are all deceptive.
He took advantage of the royal favor and guilt for Ankang, took bribes and perverted the law, clung to powerful officials, and framed Zhongliang.
He even colluded with the barbarians to frame his father-in-law Guo Hong, and personally concocted evidence that Guo Hong was treasonous.
The deputy general around Guo Hong was bribed by He Xi and lied about the military situation, causing Guo Hong and an army of 100,000 to die tragically on the battlefield.
The Guo family who stayed in the capital also did not end well. The men were beheaded and exiled, and the women were confiscated and consigned to a lowly status.
Almost overnight, the huge Duke Wei Palace collapsed.
Stepping on the corpses of more than a hundred members of the Yue family, He Xi became the most beloved minister of the saint.
If it was just to frame Guo Hong, he could still use a political struggle in which there were differences between civil and military forces, each with his own master, to clear his name.
But then, He Xi's treasonous crime was truly unforgivable.
Without Guo Jiajun to guard the northwest border defense, the barbarians were directly overwhelmed, and the barbarians drove straight in and approached the capital.
The capital is trapped, but the capital is high and deep, and there are tens of thousands of imperial guards. They can resist for a period of time and wait for reinforcements to rescue them.
However, the surrender faction headed by He Xi chose to negotiate peace with the Hulu, and secretly opened the city gate and let the Hulu in.
For a time, the country fell, the barbarians rebelled, and the Great Xia Dynasty was almost destroyed...
