Princess Sun was a little angry after hearing this. Her husband knew very well that he had a soft temper. If he hadn't been really offended, he wouldn't have been so angry. She thought about it and felt uncomfortable in her heart. Things had happened to Prince Chu's Mansion several times before.
He helped every step of the way without any selfish motives. The fifth brother had been the prince for so long and never promoted the second brother. It was a rare opportunity for him to say some sarcastic words without contributing much. It was really too much.
After thinking about it for a while, she felt that she really couldn't swallow it, so she asked someone to prepare the carriage and went to the Royal Courtyard to talk to Yuan Qingling.
Yuan Qingling didn't know what happened. During these days, she was mostly taking care of the Supreme Emperor in other courtyards. Once emphysema and asthma broke out, she would always be out of breath in the middle of the night, so the Supreme Emperor couldn't be without people.
At least, the condition will not get better until the weather gets warmer.
When she heard that Princess Sun was coming, she thought that Princess Sun was here to greet the Emperor and talk to her to relieve her boredom. However, the Emperor happened to be asleep at the moment, so she went to the main hall to see her.
"Are you the only one here? Rong Yue and Mrs. Yao are not here?" Yuan Qingling asked with a smile. Rong Yue and Mrs. Yao are now relatively close to Princess Sun, and usually go out together for activities.
Princess Sun said calmly: "They didn't come, I didn't call them."
Yuan Qingling came in and saw something wrong with her face, so she asked, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy? Who provoked you?"
Princess Sun looked at her with slightly stunned eyes, "Princess, I ask you a question, just answer it truthfully."
"Are you so serious?" Yuan Qingling wiped her hands and just divided the medicine inside. Before she could wash her hands, she sat down and said, "You ask, I will answer truthfully."
Princess Sun turned to look at her, "Tell yourself, how have I treated you in the past two or three years?"
Yuan Qingling saw the anger on her face and asked such a heated question, and was a little confused, "Second sister-in-law has been very good to me. Fortunately, I have had second sister-in-law help me over the years. I am very grateful."
"Okay, you yourself admit that I have never treated you badly, nor have I ever done anything to make you feel sorry for you. Then why does your second brother have to go on a business trip this time, and the fifth brother wants to run against him like this?" Princess Sun said angrily.
.
"Is there such a thing? I don't know!" Yuan Qingling turned around and glanced at Man'er. Man'er was also a little confused. The palace didn't order anyone to report the matter today.
Princess Sun was very angry, but she also knew that she shouldn't vent her anger on Yuan Qingling, but there were some things in her heart that she couldn't say out loud, "You know that your second brother has a peaceful temperament and doesn't argue with others. Over the years, because of
Given his temperament, his father did not entrust him with important responsibilities, but to be honest, who wants to be a loser all the time? He also hopes to do something practical to relieve his father's worries and contribute to the court. Who has given him a chance?
?In the past, the fifth brother did not deal with the elder brother and the fourth child. Your second brother always stood by the fifth brother without saying a word. Even if the fifth child is banned this time, your second brother is still in front of the father.
I say good things, but it’s true that he hasn’t done anything practical, and my father doesn’t think much of him. He hasn’t helped you much. This is also due to his incompetence. It’s not easy. You think he got such an opportunity and was able to go to the grave.
He went to the country to see things and had the opportunity to make meritorious deeds. Lao Wu was not happy for him and even said some tactless words to irritate him. This is really Lao Wu's fault. I'm not saying that I blame you, but your second brother has always taken it seriously.
You and your wife, he sincerely hopes that you will be happy for him. Even if you are unhappy in your heart, you should not show it on your face. Do you think this is true?"
Yuan Qingling heard that the Yangtze River was filled with bitter water. She recalled that in the past two or three years, no matter what happened, the couple always stood by them without hesitation, regardless of who was responsible.
Who was at fault? This relationship cannot be ruined. She hurriedly comforted and apologized, "Second sister-in-law, you are right, Lao Wu did not handle this matter properly. I will criticize him later. He is a person. You know he has no bad intentions.
I also respect my second brother. I may say those words because I am worried that my second brother has never traveled far away. In addition, the relationship between Su State and our Northern Tang Dynasty has always been tense. I am afraid that Su State will do something that will cause the second brother to suffer.
Yes, it’s purely a good intention, even if the words don’t sound nice, don’t argue with him, don’t you know him? This man can’t spit out ivory from his mouth, and he doesn’t have a good word to say to me on weekdays.
I don’t know how many times I’ve spoken back to you, but I’m just shy, but my heart is good, so don’t be like him.”
After hearing these words, Princess Sun's face became better, "I just came to tell you, don't criticize him, men have to save face, just say one sentence, saying that his second brother is looking forward to
If he is happy, he should also be happy for his second brother. Even if he sends a word of blessing and advice, it is better than such a conspiracy theory."
"Okay, don't worry, I'll ask someone to take the message back when I get back." Yuan Qingling said soothingly.
Seeing her nervous look, Princess Sun sighed, "I know I went too far by saying this. It's not a big deal, but your second brother... what should I say? He has something in his heart.
It’s aggrieved that something happened to the boss, and he was the eldest one under his father’s knees. He hoped to help his father share his worries. This was against his temperament, and it was forced to embarrass him, but he had to shoulder the responsibility and give it to his younger brother.
We set an example, but they always make things worse, and he must also feel frustrated in his heart. In fact, he is not happy at all these days, and he is not as happy as before."
Yuan Qingling recalled that when he first met King Sun, what he was thinking about and talking about was all about eating, drinking and having fun. In order to have a good meal, to be able to make up his birth date, and to come to the Chu Prince's Mansion to mess around with the cook.
He would take the trouble to wait for snacks every day. After eating delicious food, he could laugh and be happy all day long.
Perhaps Lao Wu's original intention was to protect him and let him be himself.
But as Princess Sun said, the second brother also has a sense of shame in his heart. He doesn't want to be a loser. Even though he has never defined idleness as a loser, outsiders say so, and he doesn't care about the gossip of outsiders at all.
What about gossip?
Between brothers, we still can't let some misunderstandings hurt the harmony.
Therefore, after Princess Sun left, Yuan Qingling went back and told Eunuch Chang that she would go back to Prince Chu's Mansion first to deal with some matters.
The most important thing is that she is worried that if there is a rift between the brothers, the second brother will really favor the fourth brother. Can the fourth brother get close to him casually? He will suffer a big loss!
Back at the palace, Yu Wenhao had just sent Xiao Hongchen away when he saw her suddenly come back. He was not surprised at all. Women can hide many secrets, but the second sister-in-law is an exception.
"Second sister-in-law has gone to find you, right?" Yu Wenhao asked.
"I complained a lot, saying that you shouldn't have said those things to your second brother, which made him worried." Yuan Qingling took his arm and went in, "I saw Xiao Hongchen at the door just now. Is there any news?"
