Mrs. Chen suddenly turned around, stared at Ling Ruo's half-smiling face for a long time, shook her head and said, "Impossible, this is a family matter in Prince Guo's palace. How could the emperor get involved in such a matter?"
Ling Ruo chuckled and said, "The emperor and Prince Guo are brothers. Prince Guo's personal affairs are naturally related to the emperor. Don't you think so?"
Mrs. Chen narrowed her eyes slightly and said coldly: "Is your Majesty using the Emperor to suppress me?"
"Your Majesty's words are serious. I just hope that Your Majesty's Majesty will understand that there are some things that you can't do just because you say no. Fu Ying is kind-hearted, dignified and virtuous, and is a rare good match. I really don't understand why Your Majesty.
I just don’t like her, is it just because she comes from a poor family?”
"Fu Ying is your adopted sister. How dare I not be happy? In fact, I feel sad when she loses her child. After all, he is Yun Li's eldest son. But no matter what, she should not take away Yun Xian's child. You
Say so?"
Ling Ruo was not in a hurry to tell her this, but gestured for her to sit down, and then said: "I understand your concubine's mood, but it is best to ask your concubine to trust me and give her child to Fuying to raise.
Good choice.”
Mrs. Chen looked at the tea brought by the palace servants and said coldly: "Forgive me for not agreeing with your concubine's words, and I don't think this is a good choice."
Seeing how stubborn she was, Ling Ruo shook her head and said, "The imperial concubine is so determined. Are you forcing me to go to the emperor to request an order?"
Chen's pupils shrank, she didn't want to give in in front of Ling Ruo, but the word "imperial edict" was like a mountain, weighing her down, and she said firmly: "If your Majesty insists on doing this, I won't do it."
There are ways to do this, but it doesn’t mean that I agree with this matter. Taking away a child is always ridiculous and excessive."
Ling Ruo sighed softly and said: "I can do this, but doing so would be disrespectful to the noble concubine. If it is not a last resort, I would not take this step." Seeing that Mrs. Chen did not speak, she
He added: "Although there is no evidence about Fuying's premature birth, based on the noble concubine's thoughts, a little thought
If you think about it, you should understand that Meng has this motive and thought. I hope that the imperial concubine will not be blinded by your prejudice and let Meng do evil in the house. She harmed Fu Ying's child, and now she will give her child to
Fuying's support can be said to be retaliation, and it is not ridiculous or excessive."
"To take a step back, no matter who this child is given to raise, she is your granddaughter. There is no reason for you not to wish your granddaughter well. Although there is only one word difference between the princess and the princess, they represent two identities.
The palace has read the records and it turns out that you were born as a concubine and were always suppressed by your sister-in-law who entered the palace at the same time. The situation did not change until you gave birth to Prince Guo. Do you want your granddaughter to suffer the same thing in the future?"
Ling Ruo's words made Mrs. Chen's heart move. In fact, both Fuying and Meng were outsiders to her. Only Yunli and Yunli's children were her relatives. Since they were relatives, she didn't want them to
Suffering, and Ling Ruo undoubtedly grasped this point, causing her originally firm thoughts to waver.
In fact, she knew in her heart that whether she nodded her head or not, the child would belong to Fuying. Because with this concubine who could persuade Yinzhen standing behind Fuying, she had no chance of winning.
Now the reason why Mrs. Niu Hulu is talking to her so much is just because she wants her to nod, so that Fuying won't be too embarrassed in the future.
After thinking for a long time, she finally nodded with difficulty and said: "Okay, I agree."
Hearing this, Ling Ruo smiled and said, "It's really a good thing that the noble concubine can understand things so well. In a few days, the Imperial Palace will ask the emperor for a decree to name and canonize little Princess."
Mrs. Chen said with a cold face: "Thank you, Madam. If you have no other instructions, I will leave first."
"The noble concubine can do as she pleases." Just when Mrs. Chen was about to leave, she suddenly said: "By the way, I have something I want to give to the concubine. I wonder if the concubine is interested in hearing it?"
Mrs. Chen hesitated for a moment and said, "My dear, please speak."
Ling Ruo stood up and said meaningfully: "The concubine has been in the palace for decades, and she has always been able to do it with ease. She not only protected herself but also Prince Guo. She has never been fooled, which makes me admire her very much. But now with age
With the increase, it seems that the noble concubine can no longer understand as clearly as before."
Mrs. Chen's face turned cold and she said coldly: "I am indeed old, but I am not old enough to be confused. Thank you for reminding me."
Ling Ruo smiled and said nothing. After Chen left, Shui Xiu said with a worried look on her face: "Master, has your concubine really agreed to this matter, or is she just saying so?"
Ling Ruo took the tea and took a sip and said in a cool voice: "The words have come to this point, so she can't help but refuse to agree. Besides, the last words I said should be able to make her understand, otherwise... she will be really stupid."
Ling Ruo was right. As soon as Mrs. Chen returned to Prince Guo's Mansion, she immediately ordered Mrs. Meng to come see her. Mrs. Meng was supported by two maids and weakly came to Chen's courtyard. "My daughter-in-law has seen E Niang."
,Bless you, my mother."
Mrs. Chen's eyes swept across his face, and he sipped his tea and said, "Well, sit down."
Meng secretly took a look at the court clothes on Chen's body and asked tentatively: "Did E Niang just come back from the palace?"
"Yes, Concubine Xi ordered me to enter the palace to say a few words." Mrs. Chen's voice was as smooth as a mirror, so Meng could not hear her thoughts. She could only say softly: "Concubine Xi asked E Niang to enter the palace, but it was for the sake of her daughter-in-law.
thing?"
Mrs. Chen nodded slightly and said: "Yes, you also know the relationship between Concubine Xi and Fu Ying. She persuaded me to agree to the matter and hand over the child to Fu Ying."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Meng hurriedly said: "Eniang, you can't agree. The child was born by the daughter-in-law. You can't hand it over to your direct descendant Fujin for anything. Besides, if Eniang's words are changed overnight, what else will happen in this palace in the future?"
The prestige is palpable."
Mrs. Chen leaned forward and said coldly: "I haven't said anything yet, but you have made up my mind first. It seems like you are my mother-in-law?"
Mrs. Meng didn't dare to accept this, so she quickly said: "My daughter-in-law doesn't dare. My daughter-in-law is just nervous and a bit arrogant, so she was a bit talkative at the moment. Please forgive me."
Mrs. Chen's mouth curled up slightly and she said: "As a forehead lady, I naturally won't argue with you about some small things, but if it goes too far, I have to argue with you, don't you think?"
Meng didn't quite understand what she meant by that, so she could only smile and say, "That's what E Niang said."
"If that's the case, then you should tell me carefully. Does Fuying's premature birth have something to do with you?" After saying this, Chen's face darkened, as if a storm was brewing.
Meng was shocked. She didn't know why Chen would ask such a question. She forced a smile and said, "Why did E Niang suddenly ask this? The reason why Fujin was born prematurely was because of her own carelessness. What does it have to do with her daughter-in-law?"
