Chapter 66

Tang Yang's heart trembled. If this were the case, both the Emperor and the Supreme Emperor would probably be furious.

However, the anger was only temporary, and by divorcing the princess, there was peace in the house, and there was no need to be entangled by Jingwai. In the long run, the advantages outweighed the disadvantages.

"What do you think of marrying the second sister of the Chu family?" Tang Yang asked.

Although Yu Wenhao was tired of this topic, his father and mother kept raising it, so he couldn't avoid the problem he had to face. He asked Tang Yang, "What do you think?"

Tang Yang analyzed, "Looking at the situation, it is indeed beneficial to the prince. Although the Chu family married the eldest sister to the King of Qi, Chu Shoufu did not fully express his support for the King of Qi. Because of the Queen Mother, Chu Shoufu always had some concerns. In addition, the Supreme Emperor has always been

To appreciate you, the prince, we have to let the Chu family act conservatively. This is the current situation. But once the prince marries the second sister of the Chu family, the Chu family will more or less take care of you, the prince. If the king of Qi cannot use him, the chief assistant of Chu will take care of you.

All the power is invested in you."

Yu Wenhao said calmly, "It seems that you also agree with what my mother and concubine said."

Tang Yang shook his head. "No. The overall analysis is like this. But Beizhi knows that the prince has no pursuit in his heart. However, Beizhi still hopes that the prince will marry the second sister of the Chu family as his concubine, if the second sister of the Chu family is willing to become his concubine."

"Why are your words inconsistent?" Yu Wenhao frowned.

"There is no contradiction. Concubine Xian asked you to marry the second sister of the Chu family out of competition, but because of her humble position, she hopes that the prince will be cared for and protected by the Chu family."

"The king still needs the protection of the Chu family?" Yu Wenhao said coldly.

"Your Majesty, there are some things that you can't do, but the Chu family can." Tang Yang made it clear, "Like this time when King Ji took action, if the Chu family was on your side, could you not teach King Ji some lessons? King Ji is now

It’s really too arrogant.”

An arrogant soldier will be defeated, but before defeat, he is still very lethal.

Yu Wenhao said calmly, "I understand what you mean."

"Then..." Tang Yang asked tentatively, "My lord, what do you think?"

"That's not necessary!" Yu Wenhao said.

Tang Yang knows the interest, no more.

But Yu Wenhao asked, "Xiu Yuan Qing Ling, what do you think?"

Tang Yang hesitated and said, "I agree."

Yu Wenhao fell silent.

Early the next morning, Yuan Qingling asked her grandmother to go to the warehouse to pack some ginseng and bird's nests and return them to her parents' home.

When she went back this time, she didn't take her grandma or Aunt Xi with her, but only took Lu Ya.

The carriage arrived at Jinghou Mansion and was greeted by the concierge.

Jinghou had already told her that she would be back today, so the second lady and her family were waiting in the main hall. Seeing Yuan Qingling come in, the second lady stood up with a smile and said, "Qing'er is back? Come and sit down quickly."

According to the rules, she had to be addressed as "Princess Princess" and be greeted with courtesy, but "Qing'er" was the first to distinguish her seniority.

Yuan Qingling was not stupid. He heard it. Looking at the people sitting in the room, they got up after the second old lady got up. They didn't look particularly serious. They lazily called sister or sister, and

Not the princess.

Yuan Qingling didn't respond and went straight over to sit down.

You can recognize her at a glance. Next to the second wife is her eldest daughter-in-law, Luan. She is wearing a blue silk embroidered skirt. She has light eyebrows, pink eyes, a flat nose, and some wrinkles at the corners of her eyebrows, but they are not very obvious, which shows that she is well maintained.

.

Next to her is Mrs. Cui, the daughter-in-law of Yuan Lunwen, the eldest brother of the original owner. She is wearing a yellow floral silk feather skirt and a jade bracelet on her wrist. The jade beads on her head are also very expensive. She comes from a wealthy family and has a rather aloof temperament. Looking at it now

Yuan Qingling's eyes are also somewhat arrogant.

Next to her is Yuan Qingping, the younger sister of the original owner. She is fifteen years old. She has just grown hair. She is powdered and looks at her with two round eyes. The whites of the eyes are much more than the eyeballs. They look a bit triangular and her lips are a little thin.

She looks like a mean-mouthed person, but at first glance, she still feels pretty.

In addition, the two concubines in the second room stood aside obediently with their heads lowered. Because they were concubines, their clothes were not exquisite.

There were still many female relatives in the mansion who had not come out. It could be seen that the second wife saw that there were too few people, so she called two concubines and granddaughters to come out and rush for the head.

Yuan Qingling looked at the second old lady again. She was now relatively plump, with a round face and very few wrinkles. Her hair looked dyed, and there was no trace of white silk. She was also very richly dressed, covered with silk and satin, and her hair was combed.

The high bun and hairpin looked expensive, but there was no trace of the shabby appearance of a dowry girl. If you didn't know better, you might have thought that she was born into a noble family.

There was a faint smile on everyone's face, and the smile was a bit mocking. It can be imagined that Jinghou Mansion really didn't pay attention to this disgraced princess.

Yuan Qingling asked, "The government has reported that my grandmother's condition has worsened. How is she doing now?"

The second old lady looked outside and saw that she had indeed brought only a girl and not the royal nanny. Her expression slowed down and she said, "Your grandmother is always like that, but this time it was your father who asked you to come back."

, you go to the study to find him."

Yuan Qingling knew what she was thinking, so he didn't bring anyone with him, so he didn't need to give the palace any face. He didn't bother to entertain her, so he sent her to the study directly.

Yuan Qingling frowned. If he wanted to see her, he could just go to the palace to find her. Why lie about her grandmother being sick?

Since her grandmother was not sick, she was not in a hurry and said calmly, "I haven't had breakfast yet."

She didn't mean to put on any airs. She came back early this morning, she hadn't finished breakfast yet, and her hands and feet were a little weak from hunger.

The second old lady looked at her and said, "Then you go to the study first and I will order someone to prepare some rice porridge for you."

"Now!" Yuan Qingling looked directly at her.

The second old lady looked at her for a while, then turned around and ordered, "Come here, serve rice porridge."

Luan, the eldest daughter-in-law of the second wife, sat down and curled her lips, "You are so majestic. You have to eat rice porridge when you return home. Didn't you eat such good things in the palace?"

When Luan said this, the other female family members burst into laughter.

Luan is the daughter of the county magistrate, and is considered a household to the Hou family. Before Luan's father became an official, Luan followed her mother to sell embroidery to help support the family. She was used to being a merchant.

The breath was still there, the roots were red and the top was white. Seeing Yuan Qingling put on airs, she couldn't help but make some sarcastic remarks.

Yuan Qingling didn't even raise her eyebrows and said, "Are you saying that the palace is too poor to eat rice porridge?"

Luan was startled, "I'm not as poor as the prince."

"That means I have failed as a princess. I can't even get enough to eat in the palace, so I have to go back to my parents' house to beg for porridge."

Yuan Qingling's eyes flashed sharply, staring at Luan.

Mrs. Luan is so frustrated, what the hell is this? When Yuan Qingling returned to her parents' home in the past, didn't she have to go to her parents' home? Why is she so majestic today?

The second old lady smiled and said, "Well, why are you two so weird? Why haven't you come this early? Come and have a look. By the way, didn't Mother Zhang make sweet-scented osmanthus cake today?"

Bring some to the princess."

After all, he is a snobbery. If he swallows it lukewarmly, he is just eating rice porridge.

After a while, there was sweet-scented osmanthus cake to eat.
