Chapter 458 The Eldest Princess and the County Lord
"It turns out to be the eldest princess." Yin Ruhua smiled and said, "Eldest princess, please take a seat."
As the Crown Princess, Yin Ruhua naturally knew nothing about these royal relatives.
She heard from Aunt Ge about the eldest princess of Kangnan. She was the younger sister of Emperor Yong of the Ming Dynasty. She was from the same mother and was very favored, but her body and bones had never been very good.
The reason for her poor health was that during the fierce imperial court battles in her early years, she accidentally drank a cup of poisonous tea that was supposed to be consumed by Empress Qin.
It can be regarded as saving a disaster for Empress Qin.
However, precisely because of that cup of tea, Princess Kangnan's health has never been in good condition.
It was probably because the battle for the right of succession left a psychological shadow on her, so even though the eldest princess was a sibling of Emperor Yong of the Ming Dynasty, she rarely returned to the capital after arriving in the fiefdom, and never interfered with the affairs of the capital.
Just because of that cup of tea, her son directly won the title of Marquis, and her daughter also won the position of county head.
This is unique among the eldest princesses.
After Princess Kangnan sat down, she smiled slightly and said, "The Crown Princess is just like the rumors. She has ice-cold muscles and jade bones, and has an unparalleled appearance."
The Nanyang County Lord next to him couldn't help but have a look of jealousy in his eyes when he heard this. It was probably because of this charming look that he seduced the prince's cousin!
Yin Ruhua smiled and said, "The eldest princess is really too polite."
Queen Qin had already picked up her granddaughter and asked, "Does Yunyang miss my grandmother?"
Little Yunyang has grown up a lot now and understands more and more words. She smiled at her imperial grandmother.
She can only speak two sentences, one is mother and concubine, the other is father and king, but she can't speak anything else.
Needless to say, Queen Qin's love for her granddaughter went without saying. She smiled and said to Princess Kangnan: "This is Ji'er's eldest daughter, her name is Situ Xi. The emperor has conferred the title of Princess Yunyang."
Princess Kangnan said with a smile: "I look exactly like the prince when he was a child. If this is a prince, that would be great."
Empress Qin didn't care much about this, "Ji'er and the Crown Princess are still young, so it would be good for them to bloom first and bear fruit later."
As for Yin Ruhua, she just treated her as a guest and didn't say anything.
However, the Nanyang County Lord next to him couldn't help it and said: "Auntie, you don't know how unpleasant the rumors are. Now everyone is saying that the prince's cousin can't have a baby. We who just came back have all heard it.
My ears are really unbearable!"
"Don't talk nonsense." Princess Kangnan scolded.
"I'm not talking nonsense, that's what people say." The head of Nanyang County said.
Yin Ruhua glanced at her, Yang Chan left and Nanyang came again.
"If Ji'er hasn't had a son for three to five years, they won't be too anxious no matter how late it is. But now, just a short time ago, they are already anxious. Moreover, this kind of rumors have not happened to me before." Empress Qin.
He said very calmly.
At first, she was unable to get pregnant because of her health problems. Wasn't it also rumored that she could not give birth? They also spread rumors that she was jealous of the queen, and that she could not give birth, so that Emperor Yong of the Ming Dynasty also had no son.
She knew it was those aristocratic families who spread rumors to slander her.
Now this experience is similar to that in old Beijing, where the courtiers often used the excuse that their son had no heirs.
They are probably all thinking about getting more people into the palace when they wait for the draft after their son ascends the throne.
This is the method used to do it over and over again.
"What the empress said is that the princess just gave birth to a little princess, so she made them anxious!" Princess Kangnan nodded hurriedly and gave her daughter a warning look.
The head of Nanyang County said nothing more, but he couldn't help but look at the Crown Princess Yin Ruhua.
Yin Ruhua didn't care about the county owner because he looked like a spoiled and unlovable person.
After a while, Queen Qin said: "Yunyang can't stay any longer. Princess, please take her for a walk."
"Now I like to run out, and I really can't sit still in the palace." Yin Ruhua said with a smile.
Empress Qin handed the child to her and asked her to take it out to play.
After their mother and daughter left, Queen Qin looked at Princess Kangnan and said, "Why are you interested in coming back this time?"
Princess Kangnan smiled and said, "Of course I have to come back to take a look at such a big thing as moving the capital. How is your sister-in-law in good health?"
"Everything is fine. What about you?" Queen Qin looked at her.
Of course, Empress Qin also gave this sister-in-law an extra preferential treatment. Although the cup of poisonous tea was unintentional, it did help her avoid a difficult situation.
"Thank you for your concern, sister-in-law. I'm fine too. I just thought I wouldn't be back for a long time, so I brought Nanyang and Ting'er to have a look." Princess Kangnan said with a smile.
Empress Qin nodded, "I have also heard from the Emperor that Ting'er manages the fiefdom very well. He, the young Marquis of Nanting, has the talent to manage the place."
No one doesn't like their son to be praised, and the same goes for Princess Kangnan. She smiled and said: "How can he have any great talents? They are all strategies offered by people below. At most, he only has the ability to make good use of talents."
That’s all.”
"This is also rare." Queen Qin smiled.
Princess Kangnan said: "But when I come back this time, I really want to ask my sister-in-law for something."
"What's the matter?"
"Ting'er is not young anymore, but he still has no intention of getting married. He doesn't like any of the girls in the fiefdom, so he came to Xianyang this time for his marriage." Kang
Princess Nanchang said.
Empress Qin also said: "After Ji'er ascends the throne and is drafted, how about I ask someone to write a list for you to see?"
"That's perfect." Princess Kangnan smiled.
Then they turned to other things. During lunch, Emperor Yong of the Ming Dynasty came over to join us.
This is the treatment that Princess Kanghua, who died in the prison, dreamed of, but she never received this honor until her death.
Princess Kangnan is also very good at talking. When she saw her brother, she was surprised, "What kind of magic medicine did your brother take to make you look so much younger?"
That expression obviously pleased Emperor Yong of the Ming Dynasty. He said with a smile: "Kang Nan is joking, my body is not young at all, it's just that my surface is smooth."
The outside world did not know that he had taken three pills of natural cardamom. They only thought that he had taken two pills. Of course, the effect of two pills was greatly reduced.
"I see that the imperial brother is in excellent condition, almost as if he was thirty years old."
"Haha!" Emperor Ming Yong smiled.
The meal was naturally served in a harmonious atmosphere, and when we left the palace, we were rewarded with many things.
After Princess Kangnan got on the carriage, a look of fatigue appeared on her face.
As expected, my body is still not in shape, and I get tired easily.
"Mom, why didn't you tell your aunt about me?" Nanyang County Lord couldn't help but said.
Princess Kangnan glanced at her daughter, "Do you think your appearance can be compared with Yang Chan?"
