Crowned with Pearls

   Chapter 1264 Sixty-three The initiative has changed hands

  Su Yao put the right to choose in the hands of Concubine Pang Gui, whether it is to take matters into consideration and make matters smaller, continue to argue with the courtiers, sacrifice the interests of some daughters, or spread out with the courtiers and simply tear their faces.

   Concubine Pang is really difficult to choose.

  No one wants to offend the censors, the censors have a special status and their mouths can kill people.

   But if you back down, then Princess Eleven's marriage will not be satisfactory.

   was talking when Princess Eleven came in. She was holding a crystal plum bottle with a few plum blossoms in it, very bright and beautiful.

   Seeing that Su Yao was also there, Princess Eleven was very happy: "Ah, nephew and daughter-in-law are here? Look at my flower?"

   She likes to tease Su Yao very much now, and when she sees Su Yao, she asks Su Yao to call her aunt.

   Originally, I wanted to call. What happened in private is a private matter, but I couldn't talk to anyone on the surface, so Su Yao called out naturally: "Yes, auntie."

   Princess Eleven listened interestingly, haha ​​laughed.

   She is naive, at least emotionally, she is really naive.

Concubine Pang Gui looked at her, seeing that she was beautiful and sensible, bright and bright, like the right plum blossoms on the branches now, thinking that her daughter might end up with those princesses who married poorly, the house was restless and there was no happiness in her heart. The haze intensified.

   She has already made up her mind.

   But before making a decision, Concubine Pang Gui consulted the fifth prince.

   The fifth prince had just greeted the imperial concubine, and when he heard Concubine Pang Gui's invitation, he hurried over: "Is there something wrong with the concubine?"

   He was filial, and Concubine Pang comforted her heart: "It's nothing, but there is one thing the concubine can't make up on, so I want you to come over and discuss it together."

After   , Concubine Pang Gui told the fifth prince about the candidate for the consort.

   Including the actions of the few people that Su Yao found out, he also told the Fifth Prince.

The attitude of the fifth prince was put forward from the beginning: "These people, Lu Yongning is narrow-minded and talkative, so he must first get rid of them. Chen Xianyi is hypocritical and unfeeling. , to gain fame and reputation, and to hurt people behind their backs, their intentions were impure from the beginning, if they really become concubines, the eleventh day will not be easy."

   This is also what Concubine Pang Gui is worried about.

   She nodded and lowered her eyes: "These five won't work, but."

   But even if they talk about what they are fighting against each other this time, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs will do it all over again.

   In the end, the courtiers still want to be the masters. They want the royal family to follow the ancestral system so that they can benefit from it.

The fifth prince also saw it very clearly. He didn't avoid it, and said bluntly: "Mother concubine, you can't condone them! This matter is related to the lifelong happiness of my sister, and it's not a joke. If you don't choose well, you can accept bribes once, and later on It’s the same, what’s the use of just changing people? We don’t know what kind of things we get replaced. What we should do is to take the initiative in our own hands, and we should choose the candidates for the concubine by ourselves.”

   Concubine Pang was very relieved that he could say these words, she sighed: "Why doesn't the concubine mother know this truth, it's just."

   Just like this, it is inevitable to pull out the activities here. Once this happens, it is really against the courtiers.

   The reputation of the fifth prince will not be good.

   Those censors will definitely scold him.

The fifth prince knew what Concubine Pang Gui was worried about, and he suddenly smiled: "Mother concubine, I have already prepared, why are you still unable to think about it? Who am I? I don't plan to do anything wrong, as long as I don't commit these two horrific sins, no matter if it's my father or Ah Heng, how could they treat me lightly?"

   He wants to be a happy prince, what's wrong?

   Concubine Pang Gui was stunned. Seeing her son's bright smile, she came back to her senses later, and she couldn't help laughing.

  Yeah, why is she still timid unconsciously?

   She is a noble concubine now, and she has no further hope. In this case, why are you afraid of offending the courtiers? !

   Not to mention, I can do Su Ying a favor.

   Su invites to accomplish this, and it will become famous, and everyone will know the vigorous and resolute actions of Taisun Concubine.

   She was worried about gain and loss, but she didn't think about it.

   She glanced at the fifth prince: "You can figure it out."

   "Naturally, I figured it out, and even if I had that hope, should I sell my sister?" The fifth prince said frankly, "Then I can't do it."

   Concubine Pang Gui felt a little sour and a little relieved.

  Her son is really powerful, so transparent, he will definitely not lose to Xiao Heng.

   But her son is so kind and conscientious.

  Thinking of King Zhuang, the second prince and the third prince, Concubine Pang Gui's unwillingness dissipated.

   Anyway, raising such a son is always a happy thing, better than raising those unethical things, right?

   She smiled.

The next day, when Su Yao came over, Concubine Pang Gui said softly to Su Yao: "I have already decided on this matter, Yao Yao, I want to trouble you, and let Lu Yongning and the others pay bribes. Tell them about their affairs in other palaces, and I will choose a suitable husband for Eleven again."

  Su Yao had expected Concubine Pang Gui's choice, so she was not surprised to hear that, she should be smiling.

Then Su Yao signaled that the three provinces should be active in it, and immediately after that, Lu Yongning learned that he was pushed into the well by Gao Dachun of Yongxiu in Jiangxi Province. As a result, the discipline **** received Gao Dachun's money and planned to make this matter a small matter. , said it was Lu Yongning's own misstep.

  Lu Yongning was also removed from the list of five.

   He almost lost his life, but in the end he lost his place. Lu Yongning was so mad that he made trouble in the other palace and fought with Gao Dachun.

   As a result, this matter could not be covered up, and everyone knew about it.

   I heard that the princess was to choose a husband-in-law. As a result, there were people in the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs who received money for the qualifications. The censors felt that it was incredible. After learning the whole story, they all impeached the officials of the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs for their personal pockets and accepting bribes.

   There was a lot of uproar about the matter, and it was about his own daughter. Princess Eleven was also favored. Emperor Yuanfeng was furious and signaled to Dali Temple to conduct a strict investigation.

  Dali Temple intervened, and soon found out the forces behind Lu Yongning, Chen Xianyi and Gao Dachun.

   When he heard that his daughter's husband-in-law had been chosen as the capital for the family to make money, Emperor Yuanfeng laughed angrily.

Concubine Pang Gui also cried a lot: "It was said to follow the ancestral system, I thought it was the good intentions of the courtiers, but who knew that they were using the daughters of their concubines as a way to make money! These people are really hateful! Is there no one in our royal family?!"

   This is contempt for imperial power.

   The initiative of the matter is no longer in the hands of the officials.
