Queen's scheming

Chapter 426 Hejing's Birthday ([-])

"Why is Princess Zhuangjun willing to let you come out?" The Young Madam of the Yongquanhou Mansion asked a little strangely when she saw Princess Zhuangjun.

Prince Zhuangjun's concubine smiled softly, took the hand of the Young Madam of Yongquan Houfu, and said softly: "Princess Hejing's birthday, such a big event, how can we not join in the fun and be happy?"

The Young Madam of Yongquanhou's Mansion was a little stunned. The Crown Princess of Zhuangjun was pregnant and had been concentrating on raising her baby in the mansion. She hadn't attended Princess Cheng's birthday before, but now she came to attend a baby's birthday?

The Young Madam of Yongquanhou's Mansion couldn't help but dragged Princess Zhuangjun Wang Shizi to a shelter, pretended to tie her a cloak, and said in a low voice: "My dear sister, if you have any inside information, don't hide it from me. The old Hou Ye doesn't care, and Hou Ye is a big spender, if my eyes go dark again, the Hou Mansion will be defeated by our generation, you can't watch your nephew fall down in the future!"

Hearing what the young lady said, Princess Zhuangjun had no choice but to remind her in a low voice: "You must have heard about the matter with Princess Jing and Young Master Zhen Guogong earlier!"

The Young Madam of the Yongquanhou Mansion nodded, and her voice became lower and lower, "This kind of thing can't be hidden even if you want to hide it. Besides, there seems to be no news from the palace? I don't know if it is acquiescence? "

Princess Zhuangjun squinted at the young lady, shook her head and said, "Since you want to keep your marquis' mansion, don't always focus on the sesame mung beans in front of you. You should take a long-term view, our princess If you insist on letting me participate, you can see it!"

The Young Madam of Yongquanhou's Mansion was taken aback, and asked tentatively: "Could it be that Concubine Shu has vented the concubine's anger?"

Princess Zhuangjun shook her head lightly, walked in with the hand of the young lady of Yongquan Houfu, and said in a low voice: "I don't know about it, it's just a banquet in the Chengwang Palace, and the princess shirked it for me. But you want me to come to the palace, the rules in the palace are complicated, I am still pregnant, but the princess doesn't mention this, it can be seen that the princess knows something."

The Young Madam of Yongquanhou's Mansion was still a little puzzled, she had to break the casserole and ask the end, "Oh, my good sister, I'm stupid, but I'm not as quick-witted as you, you should remind me!"

Princess Zhuangjun couldn't help it, so she had to say in a low voice: "Princess Hejing is only six years old now, and it is said that men and women have different seats at seven years old, but rumors are flying all over the world. If no one is behind the scenes, how can it be possible? You don't even have this Can't even see it?"

Only then did the Young Madam of the Yongquan Hou's Mansion startle, and she opened her mouth dumbly and said: "You mean, the Zhen Guo Gong's Mansion..."

Prince Zhuangjun's concubine glanced at it, and Mrs. Zheng, the wife of Duke Zhen who had just got off the sedan chair at the gate of the palace, couldn't help curling her lips, and said in a low voice: "I didn't say anything, but I heard what our son said. Zhen Guogong wrote a blood letter with Tang Shaojun in the court hall, severed the relationship between father and son, and asked the young master of Zhen Guogong's mansion to be his son. You said that the matter of changing the son of the son will not happen sooner or later, but why? In the capital, the news about Princess Hejing and the young master of the Duke of Zhenguo’s mansion has only just spread, so you want to change the crown prince, don’t you think it’s a bit too coincidental?”

The Young Madam of Yongquanhou's Mansion, only then realized that she naturally disdained Mrs. Zheng over there, raised the corners of her lips, and supported Zhuangjun Wang Shizi and said: "My good sister, let's go to the palace first! Although we can't compare to those of the Duke's Mansion and the Prince's Mansion, we still have some face in the end. Even if we want to ask for marriage, we will definitely ask the Empress in front of the Empress. We definitely can't be that kind of merchant. It's about people's reputation!"

Mrs. Zheng just heard this sentence, and she didn't show any expression on her face. As long as her Qi Ge'er can get the throne and marry Princess Hejing, the future will be bright in the future. These gossips are nothing in front of power !

The Young Madam of the Yongquan Hou's Mansion was even more disdainful when she saw Zheng's appearance, and when Zheng walked up to them arrogantly, the Young Madam of the Yongquan Hou's Mansion couldn't help curling her lips and said: "I don't even have the heart to be ashamed. Fortunately, she is still the Duke's wife!"

Prince Zhuangjun's concubine couldn't help persuading: "Who is this Princess Hejing, the eldest daughter of the emperor! So far, there are only three princes in the palace, but there is only such a princess. What do the emperor and the empress dote on? You And looking at the banquet today, one can see how favored Princess Hejing is. Who wouldn't want to get such a monstrous wealth? Naturally, they will try their best to get involved with the princess, but the princess is just now He's only six years old, but he used such indecent methods, it really is..."

Who is the Young Madam of Yongquan Hou's Mansion? One of the few fast-talking people in the capital, Zhuangjun Wang Shizi was summoned away by Zhuangjun Wangfei. She quickly told the acquaintances and unfamiliar wives what happened just now. After searching over and over again, who doesn't have a young boy of the right age? Even if there is no one in the direct branch, there are also some in the side branch, but I didn't expect Mrs. Zhen Guogong to act so quickly, and everyone looked down on the Zheng family.

Princess Zhuangjun glanced briefly, and seeing everyone muttering, she glanced at Mrs. Zhen Guogong on the seat on her right from time to time, nodded with satisfaction, and said softly to the princess: "You have done a good job in this matter." Alright, if you feel tired after a while, look for an opportunity to talk to Concubine Jing Huishu, the empress will let you go down and rest!"

Princess Zhuangjun smiled sweetly and said: "It's my daughter-in-law's honor to help Concubine Shu do something. Besides, the pregnancy is stable and it's fine. If it's too tired, my daughter-in-law will bother Shu again." Empress Dowager!"

Seeing the princess nodding her head slightly, the concubine could not help but raise the corners of her lips. A few days ago, she rejected the concubine girl that the concubine prepared for the concubine, which made the concubine very dissatisfied. Turned around, how can I say that Concubine Shu is also her sister-in-law, she should do things and speak for Concubine Shu, and it is really good to have these windfalls, this is really the right time for Princess Jing's birthday !

The banquet soon began. Thanks to the contribution of the young wife of the Marquis Yongquan, all the ladies turned their attention to Princess Hejing, who was only six years old and was wearing a chest-length skirt. figure out...

Everyone pouted secretly, pointing at Mrs. Zhen Guogong, but Zheng still pretended not to see it, she doesn't need to care about these things, what she has to do now is to settle this marriage and let Qi Ge'er become the eldest son smoothly , When Lord Zhen Guo is successful in the future, he will give everything to Qi Geer!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Zhen Guogong couldn't help but pretend to be kind, and took Princess Hejing's little hand, but refused to let it go. She looked familiar and asked, "Is the princess's body getting better?" , Did you catch a cold? Afterwards, the court lady was very worried, it was all the court wife's fault that she didn't take good care of the princess, fortunately Qi Ge'er was there, otherwise I don't know what will happen."

Everyone looked at the sighing appearance of Mrs. Zhen Guogong, and they were even more disdainful. They were afraid that others would not know. They told the events of that day in front of the courtiers and family members, but they didn't know what the palace meant. I haven't expressed my position all the time. Could it be said that it is really impossible to marry Princess Hejing?

Everyone seemed to be eating and drinking, but their ears were all listening. If the marriage in the Zhen Guogong's mansion fails, they will have a chance!
Just when everyone thought that Princess Hejing would become angry from embarrassment, Princess Hejing tilted her head, looking ignorant of worldly affairs. Hearing what Mrs. Zhen Guo said, she seemed to be thinking about the events of that day. He smiled and said: "That's right, the young master of the Duke's Mansion was in the garden that day, and he even helped the princess."

When Mrs. Zheng heard this, she was a little dissatisfied. She glanced at Shen Qingyi who was standing above her, and seeing her smiling face, she boldly said: "It's so easy for Brother Qi to give me a hand, alas, fortunately My wife has always let Qi Geer learn to swim, otherwise, if something really happened that day, how will my wife explain to the emperor, empress, and imperial concubine!"

Princess Hejing seemed a little at a loss, looking at Shen Qingyi who was looking up, Nan Nan said: "Mother's queen..."

Zheng sneered in her heart, do you want to admit it at this time?That's too late, now that the news has spread all over the capital, even if Princess Hejing doesn't want to admit it, she must be her own daughter-in-law!

Shen Qingyi beckoned lightly, called Princess Hejing to her, whispered a few words of comfort, casually played with the white jade wine cup in her hand, stared at Mrs. Zhen Guo with a half-smile and said: "This palace has some I can't understand what Mrs. Zhen Guogong said. The young master Qi of the Duke's Mansion helped the princess when she came ashore. Both the palace and the emperor gave me a lot of knowledge to go to the Duke's Mansion. It's enough! Why? Listening to Mrs. Zhen Guo's intentions, it seems like Master Qi saved the princess."

Shen Qingyi's sharp eyes swept over, with a hint of threat.

Everyone also understood that what the empress meant by her words was that she did not admit that Young Master Qi of the Duke of Zhen's mansion had saved the princess. This is so lively!
Even the courtiers in the outer hall who were behind the screen put down their wine cups. Shen Qingyi's cold voice raised his voice, and it was difficult for them not to hear it. The leader Li Tianyou glanced at him, his expression was unclear, and he couldn't see any joy or anger. Could it be that Li Tianyou didn't know about this matter?Or is Li Tianyou unwilling to admit to this marriage?
Duke Zhen clenched his fists slightly. He has broken away from the father-son relationship with Tang Zihan. The marriage between Qi Ge'er and Princess Hejing must be completed. There has been a lot of rumors outside the palace. Even if Li Tianyou and others want to shirk, there must be someone Ken believes it is!
The Zheng family also thought the same way in the inner hall, she would never give Shen Qingyi a chance to shirk, so she knelt down and said with a look of fear: "I don't understand what the queen empress means, if it is not a surprise that I fell into the water with Princess Jing Brother disregarded his own safety and went into the water to save people, how can Princess Hejing be safe and sound?"
