While Yuan Qingling was still at the old lady's house, Uncle Su came to visit.
Su Guojiu is the biological brother of the Queen Mother, and he has been granted the title of Guojiu. The Su family has not had many capable people in recent years, but there are still three pounds of nails in a rotten ship. After all, an empress dowager and a good concubine are both the same.
He who covers his hands for clouds and makes rain.
When Su Guojiu arrived at the Hou Mansion, he went straight in and told the story about the King of Chu marrying the concubine. In the middle of his words, he always brought the Queen Mother out and asked Jinghou to guarantee that when the King of Chu married the concubine, both Princess Chu and Jinghou Mansion would be the same.
Heartfelt blessings.
When Jinghou heard that the King of Chu was going to marry the daughter of the Chu family as his concubine, he was already very depressed. If he had known this earlier, he would never have planned the scene in the princess palace.
Now the King of Chu did not agree with him, but also offended the Chu family. He really lost his daughter and lost his army.
Facing Uncle Su's threat, he could only say sincerely: "Uncle Guo, don't worry, Xiaohou can guarantee that the princess is also happy. After all, after the second young lady of the Chu family came in, she and she were sisters. From now on
Serving the prince together can be considered a family."
Uncle Su Guo said calmly: "The Marquis is a man who knows current affairs. With your words, I think the Queen Mother and Concubine Xian will feel at ease. Don't worry, Concubine Xian will remember your affairs and won't call them in vain."
You have been wronged."
Jinghou smiled bitterly, how could the Concubine Xian help him with his affairs? Even the Queen Mother had no right to interfere in the affairs of the government, and the Su family was not as capable as the Chu family. Today, half of the country in the Northern Tang Dynasty belongs to the Chu family.
However, I definitely didn't dare to say this on my face, I could only pretend to be surprised and bowed repeatedly, "Then thank you, the Queen Mother, and thank you, the Concubine Xian."
Uncle Su Guo left with satisfaction.
When Yuan Qingling left the old lady's house, she was stopped by two guards and "invited" directly to the study. Lu Ya was also taken to have snacks by her mother-in-law first, and she was not allowed to follow Yuan Qingling.
This time, Jinghou was furious, "I ask you, answer truthfully, were you kicked out of the palace because you opposed King Chu's marriage to his concubine? Did you offend the Concubine Xian because of this?"
Yuan Qingling was dragged over, and she was already angry in her heart. But when she heard him ask such a ferocious question, her face immediately darkened, "What does it matter if it is yes or no?"
"So what?" He waited and saw that she had no intention of repenting at all, and dared to yell at him. Her anger suddenly burst out, and she raised her hand to swipe him away.
The moment he raised his hand, Yuan Qingling said coldly: "I have to see the King of Chu when I get back, and my father will just beat me."
The raised hand fell down abruptly, but he could not hide his anger, "Why do I have a daughter as stupid as you? The King of Chu wants to marry the daughter of the Chu family. You should raise your hands to agree and even help in many ways, so that Chu can be calmed down.
The resentment of the family, if you want to give up the position of concubine, you must give up."
Yuan Qing said coldly: "I want nothing more than for the prince to marry his concubine. Not to mention giving up the position of the main concubine. Even if you divorce me, I have no objection. My father told the Chu family that I, Yuan Qing Ling Yinuo, will give me a thousand gold coins."
After saying this, she took a step back, as a courtesy to her daughter, and said, "I'm going back first. Your Majesty has been unwell recently, and I have to go back to take care of him."
While Jinghou was still stunned, Yuan Qingling opened the door and went out.
Jinghou could hardly believe that this was what Yuan Qingling said. She said she had no objection to divorce? But back then, she even begged to die to marry the King of Chu.
Have you transitioned now?
Anyway, it was a relief to wait.
It was a dangerous journey at the beginning, but now that I think about it, I am really breaking out in a cold sweat.
The Supreme Emperor valued the King of Chu very much at that time. The King of Chu also had military exploits and had a high chance of being crowned prince, so he would take this risk even if he did not hesitate to offend the Chu family.
As everyone knows, the King of Chu was convicted by the emperor for this matter, and the Emperor's condition worsened. It was almost impossible for the King of Chu to be named the crown prince.
If Yuan Qingling voluntarily asks to go, maybe the Chu family's resentment can be relieved, and they will have more exchanges and fawnings in the future. Instead of hoping for support, they just hope that they will not be regarded as a thorn in the Chu family's side, and he will become Amitabha.
As for Yuan Qing, Ling Qiu went back and found a small family to marry, which was considered a blessing.
Thinking of this, the mood of waiting is greatly relaxed.
However, this matter still required him to take the initiative. He wanted to save the face of both parties without offending the King of Chu. What excuse should he use to beg for resignation?
In order not to damage the face of King Chu and the face of his Jinghou Mansion, the only option is to sacrifice Yuan Qingling.
A trace of hatred flashed in his eyes, and he said: "Come, please call the second old lady."
Within three days after Yuan Qing Ling returned home, rumors spread throughout the capital that Yuan Qing Ling returned to the Marquis Mansion to ask his second wife to find a son from a good doctor, but she was diagnosed with a congenital disease and could not conceive.
People say that this news is very true and was told by someone close to the second wife of the Hou family.
When Yuan Qingling learned the news, it was already three days later.
It was Luya who went out to buy needlework and came back to inform Yuan Qingling after hearing this rumor.
Luya was very angry. She accompanied Yuan Qingling back home that day. Where could she have hired a good doctor?
After Yuan Qingling heard this, she just smiled lightly. With a clear mind, she had already seen Jingwai's plan.
She is now an abandoned pawn of Jinghou Mansion and cannot help Jinghou Mansion. However, being a concubine in the palace is an eyesore to the Chu family. If Jinghou wants to curry favor with the Chu family, she must be abandoned.
Finding an excuse and asking for it to be discarded was a great gift to the Chu family.
The Chu family has never finalized the marriage, probably because they don't want the second young lady Chu Mingyang to be a concubine after marrying. If she is married to a main concubine, it will be a different matter.
Flattery and flattery, waiting for a hand.
If these thoughts are used for the country and the people, where will today's achievements be?
"Princess, why aren't you angry? People outside are talking nonsense." Luya said with a sigh of relief. Although she didn't like the princess before, she has changed a lot now. She is different from before. She really cares about her.
The princess is the master and will not allow others to slander her.
Yuan Qingling laughed and said, "You know it's nonsense, so why are you still angry? Your mouth belongs to other people, and they can say whatever they like."
Lu Ya sighed, "This nonsense will damage your reputation."
Yuan Qingling knew that the greatest insult to a woman was to lose her virginity and be unable to have children.
Waiting for this is a cruel move.
Even though Yuan Qingling did not regard Jinghou as his father, he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart. How could he be sad if the original owner was still alive?
That's her biological daughter!
For the sake of his career, he disowned his relatives.
Aunt Xi listened to the conversation between the two and glanced at Yuan Qingling with deep thought in her eyes, but she did not speak.
Yu Wenhao recovered from his injuries for a few days and improved a lot. Emperor Ming Yuan directly ordered an imperial doctor to take care of him in the palace. Naturally, Yuan Qing Ling had nothing to do with him. They didn't see each other for a few days after leaving the palace.
The days are quite peaceful.
However, these peaceful days soon ended.
On the fifth day after leaving the palace, Emperor Ming Yuan sent an edict to Yuan Qingling to enter the palace immediately to have an audience.
