Wangchuan had read the content of the letter, but he had to pretend not to understand at this time. Fortunately, Zhu Kongyue was not on guard against her, and while reading the letter, he educated her on the ins and outs of the matter.
once.
It has to be said that Zhu Kongyue's language organization skills are still very strong. She started from the status of Zhu Kongshan and Liu in the Zhu family, then talked about the identities and backgrounds of her mother and daughter, and then talked about the eighth prince's letter calling her
She went to the capital, and she sent two girls to follow her. Finally, she pointed out that there was no letter from the two girls after they arrived in the capital, which made her think that the two girls had been bribed by Zhu Kongshan to rebel.
After saying this, he handed the letter in his hand to Wangchuan: "See for yourself! It turns out that the little bitch Zhu Kongshan did something wrong, so that Ah Huan and Ah Ruo not only lived a miserable life, but also couldn't even send the letter.
."
Wangchuan pretended to read the letter carefully. After reading it, she immediately shared the same hatred with Zhu Kongyue and criticized Zhu Kongshan's bad things together. She said: "When a woman is not married, she should regard her mother's family as the foundation, and this
The mother's family should be her father's family, not her maternal grandfather's family. If what is said in this letter is true, then the third lady is too close to her maternal grandfather's family, so that the Zhu family..."
"The Zhu family is nothing in her eyes!" Zhu Kongyue took over the words and said angrily: "That little bitch is thinking about her cousin and aunt. Yes, her cousin is the prince.
, my aunt is the imperial concubine, and our Liu family is just a family of sixth-grade officials, so naturally we can't get into her eyes. Alas, but no matter how dissatisfied we are, what can we do? The Zhu family has the support of the prince, so the Zhu family has to be with the prince.
She lowered her head in front of the gifts. Don't think that I don't know what she and her aunt are thinking. They just want to marry into the prince's house. No matter whether it is the eighth prince or the sixth prince, they will always get closer. In this way, in the future,
The entire Zhu family must be at her mercy."
Wangchuan said as if he was thinking: "Marry the prince? Isn't the third lady a concubine? Normally, a concubine cannot marry a prince and become a concubine. Even if she wants to marry, it should be a legitimate daughter of the Zhu family!" She said
After saying that, he looked at Zhu Kongyue and said, "Miss, you are the legitimate daughter! The eldest lady is the mistress! If the Zhu family really wants to marry each other, then you must be the one who should marry the prince.
No matter what, it’s not a concubine’s turn.”
Wangchuan's words awakened Zhu Kongyue. She slapped the table and said, "That's right! Why didn't I think of that! It's me who should get married, and it's not her turn anyway. A concubine with a humble status, it's the same for a concubine to marry into the prince's house.
I'm so embarrassed that I can't even win a concubine. In the end, I have to rely on my parents' family to support me. No, I have to talk to my mother later, and I can't let Zhu Kongshan have too much fun in the capital."
Wangchuan continued to work harder: "Miss, you must be on guard against domestic thieves. It's not that I'm evil-minded, but that since I'm with the eldest lady, I have to think about you wholeheartedly. I feel terrible no matter how I think about this matter,
If the third lady must marry the prince, as she is a cousin, she cannot be willing to be a concubine, so she has to find a way to get the position of a concubine. And she is a concubine, so she wants to be a concubine.
It's impossible, then...there is only one way to go."
"You mean..." Zhu Kongyue took a breath of air, "She wants to be the legitimate daughter? She wants to take my position?"
"Not only is she trying to take your position, I'm afraid her mother is also trying to take the position of the eldest lady!" Wangchuan analyzed Zhu Kongyue seriously, "Miss, to take a step back, even if they don't
With such thoughts, Zhu Mansion is probably not taken seriously. You see," she pointed at the letter and said, "The third young lady did good deeds in the capital, and the emperor restored Lady Li to the concubine position. The eighth prince also had a good reputation.
She is very proud in the capital. But she is the young lady of the Zhu family! She has done good things, why not say a good word for the Zhu family? If only she could think of the Zhu family, the master would not be just a sixth-grade official now.
.No matter how bad it is, even if you don’t get promoted, at least the reward should go to Pengzhou, right? But what about now? The Zhu family has not received any benefit at all!"
Zhu Kongyue was provoked by Wangchuan, and her anger kept rising. Whenever she thought about the possibility that her position as a legitimate daughter would be taken away, and her mother would no longer be the mistress, she would roll her eyes with anger. Whenever she thought about it, she would no longer be the mistress.
Zhu Kongshan didn't think about the Zhu family at all. She felt that the Zhu family had raised a white-eyed wolf for so many years, and it just happened to be a white-eyed wolf with a backer. What should she do?
Thinking about Mrs. Liu again, she couldn't help but said angrily: "Both mother and daughter are bitches! One is an old bitch, and the other is a little bitch! They are all charming, and it is not a good thing at first glance. But they are lucky and have good luck at home.
Two concubines were born, and two princes were born. Ah Chuan, you know, the eighth prince sent things to our house twice, but my father has always stayed in the Liu family’s courtyard!"
Wangchuan nodded, "When I came back just now, I heard that the master will stay there tonight. Fourth aunt is not happy and is crying."
"Hmph!" Zhu Kongyue snorted coldly, "What's the use of her making trouble? If she has the ability to go to Liu's yard to rob someone! She can't seduce men at such a young age, and let an old lady get an advantage, and she still
Are you embarrassed to make trouble?" Zhu Kongyue said, and sighed again, "Achuan, what will happen if I am not convinced? After all, I have no backer, the only one I can rely on is the Zhu family, the most powerful
Her identity is that of the legitimate daughter of the Zhu family. My maternal grandfather was a businessman. Dashun paid attention to scholars, farmers, industry and commerce. Being a businessman was the lowest status. Apart from being able to receive a subsidy of silver, I could not expect anything. But what about others?
Zu is the emperor’s father-in-law, she has such a noble status, and she has the support of the prince’s cousin, how can I compare with her?”
Seeing that Zhu Kongyue's arrogance was about to be suppressed, Wangchuan shook his head slightly and said: "In any case, the third young lady only thinks about her grandfather's family and ignores the Zhu family. Even if this matter is said
It's reasonable to go to the master. I'm just a servant and can't do anything. I can only stay with the eldest lady. I hope the eldest lady can live a better life."
Zhu Kongyue was still sighing repeatedly. She still hadn't regained her composure until dinner time. She was very decadent.
Today's dinner, Mr. Zhu Xinjie of the Zhu family served it in the eldest lady's room, but as soon as the dinner was finished, he got up, grabbed his robe and left. The eldest lady was worried and asked: "Master, what's the matter?"
Do you want to go to Liu's yard? How many days has this been going on? Even if you were trying to show respect to the Eighth Prince, you wouldn't do it like this. Tan's family has been making a lot of noise this afternoon, even if you don't like Tan's family anymore
, but there is also the Xu family and the Zhang family, why do you keep arresting the Liu family?"
The eldest lady's words were already very rude. She had tolerated Mrs. Liu for too long. She thought that both of her sisters had been demoted to nobles, and Mrs. Liu's arrogance was almost suppressed. However, she did not expect that Zhu Kongshan went to the capital for a visit.
This time, Mrs. Liu actually came back to life again! This was really beyond her expectation.
Facing the eldest lady's accusation and obstruction, Zhu Xinjie paused, but did not stop putting on his robe. He said: "Xu family and Zhang family? What can they bring to my Zhu family? But
She is just young and beautiful. How many women like that are there? As for the Liu family, with two sisters like that and two nephews who are princes, that is the person that my Liu family should keep.
She is the one I should pamper!" After he finished speaking, he looked at the eldest lady and said, "You are the mistress, there is no need to compete with them for favor."
"What are you talking about, master?" The eldest lady stepped forward and said, "I am not competing for favor, I am doing this for the sake of master's health. In the past, master did not show favor to the children in the backyard every night. This has been going on for many days.
But I go to the Liu family every day, and the circles under my eyes are black when I look at you. Maybe a doctor from Baicaotang will come over and ask him to take a look at you too!"
Zhu Xinjie rubbed his eyes, "Really? Darkened?" Thinking about the recent Liu family pestering him to have fun every night, he felt that it was a bit too much, so he turned back and sat down again, thought for a while and said
: "Then I won't go today! I'll just rest here."
The eldest lady nodded with satisfaction, "I have been in poor health recently and cannot serve the master. I just want to give him a rest." As she spoke, she stepped forward, took the initiative to take off the robe that Zhu Xinjie had just put on, and said
: "That kid from Kongshan has been in the capital for so long, and I don't know if he's been doing well lately. There are many wealthy families in the capital. Is anyone bullying her? Well, speaking of it, that kid is also very capable. She has only been in the capital for a few days.
, she did so many good deeds that her second aunt in the palace even regained her title as concubine!"
The news of Concubine Li returning to the throne has spread to Pengzhou. Now that the eldest lady mentioned it, Zhu Xinjie frowned, not showing any joy at all. The eldest lady looked at his appearance and sneered in her heart, but said:
: "Master, what's going on? Shouldn't you be happy?"
Zhu Xinjie snorted coldly, "Happy? The Liu family is happy. What can I, the Zhu family, be happy about?"
The eldest lady sighed softly and echoed: "The master is right. Although Kongshan has done so much, the people who benefited are all the Liu family and have nothing to do with our Zhu family. Speaking of which, master, you are from Kongshan."
Father, I heard that the emperor personally awarded the award, so why isn’t this award given to me? How about... let’s write to Kongshan to talk about it?"
Zhu Xinjie did not express his position, but he also made a conspiracy in his heart. His daughter was a scheming person. When she went to the capital this time, she obviously defected to the Eighth Prince. If she was really serious, the Zhu family would not get any benefits. But now this
The situation seems to be that the daughter is most likely thinking about her own future and has no plans for the Zhu family.
Zhu Xinjie felt unhappy and had a lot of slander against the third daughter and Mrs. Liu. The eldest lady watched his emotional changes and felt happy.
That night, Zhu Xinjie, who had originally agreed to go to the Liu family's courtyard, stayed in the eldest lady's room. When the news reached Madam Liu's ears, Madam Liu was telling her maid Chuntao how capable her daughter was.
Her two sisters were more considerate of her and were even saying: "The master now understands the situation. The eldest lady whose mother's family is just a merchant can't give him any help. As for me, Kongshan will marry the eighth prince in the future."
, whether he wants to be promoted or make a fortune, it’s all a matter of words between us two. Just when you see him running into my room, you know that he is not stupid, and he knows it well. "
With a flattering look on her face, Chuntao pinched Ms. Liu's leg and said, "Who doesn't know that you are the biggest in the house now, Aunt Liu? The eldest lady is just a title. I think Yinu will have to take this title sooner or later."
Please step aside for Aunt Liu, our aunt will soon take off her hat."
Mrs. Liu smiled and pinched the maid's cheek, "Don't worry, one day I won't let you down. My heart cannot only be with one woman. Even if I become a mistress, I still need a caring person."
Let’s serve the master together. We have many yards in our house, and I will give you one sooner or later.”
Chuntao smiled shyly: "Thank you, madam!" When she was proud, she stopped calling her aunt and changed her name to madam.
But at this moment, a servant in the courtyard came to report: "Someone from the master's end sent a message, saying that he would stay at the eldest lady's place tonight and not come here!"
