Yuan Qingling is aware of the current embarrassing situation in the Hou Mansion.
In the past few years, the Hou Mansion has not produced any powerful people. My father spent a lot of money to protect the position of minister in the East and the West. Every time he was evaluated by the officials, he had to ask someone to go through the back door through connections, otherwise he would have been dismissed long ago.
At the beginning of this year, the Emperor criticized certain yamen by name, saying that some officials were eating nothing but waiting to die. This year's assessment is to deal with these people.
After waiting quietly, he naturally clicked into his seat. He knew that he was such a person.
A person whose heart is as high as the sky and whose talent is as thin as a piece of paper always sighs and refuses to talk to me about his talents. In fact, he knows it best in his heart.
He just doesn't have the ability.
He didn't even have the ability to hug someone's thighs, so he could only win over courtiers by marrying off daughters in an attempt to secure his position.
He always said that he wanted to aspire to the position of Minister, but in fact, he knew in his heart that it would be good to keep the position of Minister.
He knew it, everyone in the mansion knew it, even Yuan Qingping knew it.
That's why she said that she couldn't be worthy of Gu Si. This wasn't belittlement, it was true self-awareness.
Yuan Qingling's heart was soft and fragile, and she couldn't bear to hear these things.
Sighing softly, "Forget it, let's talk about this later."
"Don't worry about me, I'm ready." Yuan Qing smiled, "Actually, it's not that bad. There are still many people who envy Xiaolan. With her family background, she can marry
To the great bachelor, this is like smoke rising from the ancestral graves."
Yuan Qingping's last words could not suppress the irony.
Yuan Qingling felt the turbid air coming up from her chest again. She frowned and couldn't help but run to the spittoon and vomited.
Yuan Qingping was startled and quickly opened the door and asked someone to come in. She ran over and swept Yuan Qingling's back.
"It's okay, it's okay, vomiting is normal." After Yuan Qingling finished vomiting, she comforted her with a white face.
Aunt Xi actually heard them talking outside, so she quietly pulled Yuan Qingping aside and said, "Then if Xiaolan comes, it's better not to let the princess see her."
Yuan Qingping nodded, "I understand, I will take her outside to talk and then let her go."
She remembered that she was a little reckless, so how could she ask Xiaolan to come?
The eldest sister knows Xiaolan. How can Xiaolan be the stepmother of a group of court officials with her temperament? She is not as good as herself.
After Yuan Qingling finished vomiting, she fell asleep for a while.
After waking up, Green Ya came in to wait on me.
"Where's the second young lady?" Yuan Qingling asked. She didn't get up either. She was lying on the bed, feeling that the discomfort she felt a few days ago was back.
"Second Miss is in the front yard, talking to someone." Luya said.
Yuan Qingling remembered that she had invited Xiaolan to come over before, so it was probably Xiaolan who came.
She sat up slowly and said, "Go and invite the second lady and her friends in."
Lu Ya was startled for a moment, and then she remembered that Aunt Xi had ordered not to tell the princess that someone was coming.
"Go!" Yuan Qing Ling said.
The green buds have to go out.
After leaving the door, Grandma Xi came in with sour plum soup and asked: "Are you awake?"
Luya said with a guilty conscience: "Wake up, the princess said she wants to see the second young lady and that girl Xiaolan."
Aunt Xi glared at her, "Talk too much!"
Luya lowered her head, "I know I was wrong."
Aunt Xi said: "Since the princess wants to see you, go and spread the news."
