Poor Family Laity

  Chapter 272, more children, more blessings

  In the Imperial Garden, when Mrs. Dingguo, Xiahou Huanyan, Mrs. Shi and Shi Fuyin came back, even though the four of them forced their faces to smile, everyone still felt strange.

  As for the empress dowager calling the four people away, the people present vaguely guessed something, but guesses are guesses, and if they are not accurate, some good people want to confirm their guesses.

  At this time, the status of Duke Dingguo's Mansion and Wuchangbo Mansion can be clearly seen.

  Duke Ding's mansion is a first-class mansion. Several generations of Ding Guogong have been ministers with power and power, and no one dares to offend.

But Wuchangbo Mansion is different. Although Dingxuan and Shi Dinghao are two promising juniors, but one is demoted as a policeman, and the other is just a loudspeaker next to the emperor. They have no foundation in the court. What scruples does the government have.

  Therefore, someone with good intentions directly asked Mrs. Shi: "Mrs. Shi Bo, what is the matter that the Empress Dowager called you to Shoukang Palace?"

   As he spoke, he smiled and looked Shi Fuyin up and down.

   "The third girl in your family is really good-looking, but is something good going to happen?"

   At that time, the old lady's complexion remained unchanged, and she said with a smile: "I don't dare to talk about the matter of the Empress Dowager. If the ladies are really so curious, why don't you go directly to Shoukang Palace and ask."

  The troublemaker couldn't laugh anymore, looked at Mrs. Shi, and said nothing.

  On the other side, Mrs. Ding Guogong and Xiahou Huanyan were also surrounded by acquaintances. Compared with others who were rude to the Shi family, these people showed concern for Mrs. Ding Guogong and Xiahou Huanyan.

   "It's okay, the Empress Dowager just asked us to go over and talk."

  Before the engagement was made, she was told that she had a concubine. This is not an honorable thing, Mrs. Ding Guo didn't want to talk about it.

  The queen saw everyone's reaction in her eyes, and then looked at the four people who had just been called away by the empress dowager, smiled and didn't ask anything.

  Empress Dowager

  Don't look at her as the empress, aunt as the empress dowager, the harem has long been in their hands, but they are still as afraid of the Shoukang Palace as ever.

   According to reports, the death of the regent was due to the most fatal blow given by the empress dowager.

Regent.

Although the first emperor spread the disloyalty, filial piety and injustice of the regent after the death of the regent, and almost demonized him, but they, the powerful families, knew that the regent's skills and talents were not weak, not only Not weak, Yin is still higher than the first emperor.

  The former emperor who enthroned at a young age was almost powerless against the regent king who held great power, but in the end, the loser was the regent king! !

  How did the Empress Dowager get along with the Regent Zhou Xuan?

  Beauty?

  But there are so many beauties in the world. Does the regent want any beauties, let alone the empress dowager is not a peerless beauty.

  Even if the empress dowager temporarily aroused the regent's interest because of her status, it shouldn't last too long. The first emperor ascended the throne at the age of 8 and took charge at the age of 25, with a total of 17 years in between.

   How the regent was defeated is still confusing, but one thing is certain, that is, the empress dowager's tricks!

  Although Mrs. Dingguo and Mrs. Shi were silent about the summoning of the Empress Dowager, everyone still couldn't help but explore and look at it.

"sister."

  Looking at the eyes of everyone, Shi Fuxin held Shi Fuyin's cold hand.

  Shi Fuyin smiled, and shook her head at her sister, signaling that she was fine.

  The Shi family, who were in an embarrassing situation, felt that this banquet was particularly tormented. At noon, they ate the palace banquet and talked for a while. The queen finally announced that the banquet was over.

  After the phoenix chariot who watched the queen leave, the female family members of each family left the palace together.

  As soon as she got into Shi's carriage, Mrs. Shi took off her disguise, unable to hide her worry and exhaustion.

   Mrs. Shi met and wanted to ask what happened, but Mrs. Shi just closed her eyes and took a nap, completely ignoring the three daughters-in-law who were on the same ride.

  In the latter carriage, Shi Fuyin told Shi Fuxin that the Empress Dowager wanted her to be a concubine for Duke An.

  After hearing this, Shi Fuxin's complexion sank: "Mr. An is really powerful. You saved his life, and he actually repaid you like this. Back in Jianghan, it was better not to save him!"

  Shi Fuyin was silent: "It may not be what he meant."

  Shi Fuxin frowned: "Sister, what do you think?"

  Shi Fuyin lowered her eyes: "What do I think, does it matter?" Although she rejected the Empress Dowager, if the Empress Dowager insisted on pointing her to Xiao Ziqing as a concubine, would she abandon her family and resist desperately?

  Shi Fuxin held Shi Fuyin's hand: "Sister, don't worry, I won't let you be a concubine."

Shi Fuyin grabbed her younger sister's hand tightly: "Don't mess around, this matter may not be possible. When we left Shoukang Palace, Xiao Ziqing came, and he should dissuade the Empress Dowager. Also, the Dingguo Mansion will definitely not Will agree."

  Shi Fuxin's brows still did not relax.

  What if Xiao Ziqing didn't persuade the Empress Dowager?

  What if Dingguo’s government finally fails to resist the pressure and agrees?

  It is not her style to completely leave her own situation to others and can only wait passively.

  Looking at the coldness in Shi Fuxin's eyes, Shi Fuyin said in a confused voice, "Sister Xin, promise me that you will not hurt Duke An."

  Considering whether to poison Mr. An so that he can't get out of bed and get married in a short time, Shi Fuxin: "Sister, what are you thinking? How could I do this?"

  Shi Fuyin looked at her: "Did you promise me?"

  Shi Fuxin had a headache: "Okay, I promise you."

  Shi Fuyin breathed a sigh of relief and patted Shi Fuxin's head like she did when she was a child: "Sister believes in you."

  Shi Fuxin was speechless, turned her head and did not want to speak.

   Who is she doing this for? How ungrateful!

  Shi Fuyin also leaned against the car wall, silent.

  Compared to when they left the house, everyone was smiling, but when they returned home, everyone was in a low mood.

  Mrs. Shi thought that after she returned to the mansion, Mrs. Shi would tell everyone what the Empress Dowager called her and Shi Fuyin, but who knows, Mrs. Shi didn't mention it.

  Lady Shi also told Shi Fuyin not to mention Jin Yuee and Shi Zhenghe.

   "If An Guogong can dissuade the Empress Dowager from withdrawing her order, I will treat you as a concubine to An Guogong as a concubine, and don't mention it in the future."

   Offending the Empress Dowager and rejecting the Empress Dowager's marriage proposal are all serious crimes. If word spreads, even if the Empress Dowager did not commit the crime, a good family would not dare to marry such a stubborn daughter-in-law.

  Shi Fuyin nodded, apologetic: "Grandma, I."

  Shi the old lady waved her hand: "It's not your fault, it's the mansion's fault, it's because the mansion couldn't protect you."

  If the Earl’s House hadn’t been defeated, how could the daughter of the Earl’s family be reduced to being a concubine?

  Even if that person is An Guogong!

  On the other side, Lanyue Tower, watching Shi Fuxin come back from the palace with a sullen face, the servants in the courtyard consciously restrained their behavior, and did their work carefully.

  ‘It seems that entering the palace to participate in the palace banquet did not go well this time, what happened? '

Mother Leng looked at the upper room with flickering eyes. She has been with Miss Six for more than a month. She can feel that the master doesn't trust her. She only asks her own opinion on matters involving feelings. All were handed over to An Ran and Xiao Fang to take care of them.

  If you want to be the master's confidant, at this time, you should take the initiative to step forward to share the master's worries and labors, but Mother Leng has no such ambition.

  The master's confidants will certainly be reused, but correspondingly, the risks to be borne are also high.

  Now Miss Liu treats her very well, she will only look for her when there is something to do, and she is happy to be free when nothing is wrong.

  However, she didn't take the initiative to share her worries, but Shi Fuxin found her.

   "Nurse Leng, the girl is calling you."

  Nurse Leng paused for a moment, then walked quickly into the room.

  When she came in, Shi Fuxin, who was sitting in front of the window, smashing the flowers one by one, waved An Ran and Xiao Fang back, and then looked at Nurse Leng:

   "The Empress Dowager wants to point my sister to An Guogong as a concubine, what do you think about this matter?"

Hearing this, Mother Leng finally understood the reason why Shi Fuxin was in a bad mood, she thought for a while and said, "Girl, the emperor's order must not be violated, if the Empress Dowager really has such thoughts, the third girl may have to obey. "

As soon as the words fell, Shi Fuxin threw the flower branch in her hand on the ground with a 'bang', looked at Nurse Leng, and sneered, "Imperial orders cannot be violated? It's not surprising, but you have stayed in the palace for twenty or thirty years."

"snort!"

   "The emperor's orders must not be disobeyed. If the emperor's orders must not be disobeyed, those civil and military officials in the court, how dare they dare to shout at the emperor and obstruct the emperor's decree?"

   "In the court, there are countless things of deceiving the superiors and concealing the facts, and forming cliques for personal gain; in the harem, there are even more incidents of adultery, and not one or two royal heirs died."

Shi Fuxin looked at Nurse Leng: "Nurse, you are mine now, and I don't care how you hide your clumsiness on weekdays, but if I open my mouth, then please know everything without saying anything, otherwise, I want you What's the use?"

  Nurse Leng trembled in her heart, she raised her eyes to look at Shi Fuxin: "Since the girl said so, then this old slave will talk about his own humble opinion. But there is one thing, this old slave has to make sure first."

  Shi Fuxin looked at her: "What's the matter?"

  Nurse Leng: "What kind of result does Miss Six want?"

  Shi Fuxin: "Of course my sister is not allowed to be a concubine."

  Nurse Leng shook her head: "It's not this, what the old slave asked was whether the sixth girl wants the third girl to marry An Guogong."

Shi Fuxin paused, frowned and thought for a while: "Xiao Ziqing has no parents, no brothers and sisters. Although there is an empress dowager to take care of her, the empress dowager is old and her sister likes a plain and simple life. Xiao Ziqing The situation is very suitable.”

  Looking at Nanny Leng, "But the Empress Dowager made it clear that she doesn't like Uncle Wuchang's mansion, and won't let my sister be Xiao Ziqing's legal wife."

  Nurse Leng: "If the girl wants the third girl to marry into the government of Anguo, it is actually not impossible."

   "The reason why the Empress Dowager wants to find a noble wife for An Guogong is so that after she leaves, someone can help An Guogong."

  Shi Fuxin nodded, not only she knew this, but everyone in the capital knew it.

Mother Leng continued: "Duke Anguo's mansion is a first-rank duke. In fact, as long as Duke Anguo does not seek rebellion, the prosperity and wealth of the Xiao family can be guaranteed for generations. In this way, having a strong Yue family is not the top priority. .”

   Paused, "The empress dowager's biggest heart disease is the continuation of the Xiao family's blood."

   "An Guogong's mansion is now only left with the blood of An Guogong. The issue of his heirs is what the Empress Dowager is most anxious about."

"An Guogong was conspired to be very poisonous when he was young. Although he was rescued, he has been weak and sick since then. Although he has recovered under the careful care of the Empress Dowager these years, his body is still weaker than ordinary people. .”

   "We all know that people who are weak and sick will have difficult children."

  Nurse Leng looked at Shi Fuxin: "If anyone can help the Empress Dowager solve this worry, I think, even if the status is not enough, the Empress Dowager will compromise a little bit."

  Shi Fuxin understood somewhat: "So, what is your solution?"

  Nurse Leng: "You can spread the news and tell the Empress Dowager that the third girl has a strong fate and many children in her life."

  Hearing this, Shi Fuxin's eyes flickered, but slowly, she frowned again.

  With her here, there is no need to worry about her sister giving birth, it's just that...

   "In this way, wouldn't my sister become a tool for An Guogong to give birth to a child?"

  Nurse Leng choked, a little confused about her girl's brain circuit, a woman would be blessed with more children, that's a good thing that can't be asked for, why does the sixth girl still look contemptuous?

   "In the affairs of the world, there are always rewards."

  Marrying into a noble family raises one's status, so one has to bear the burden of inheriting one's descendants from the noble family.

When Mother Leng saw Shi Fuxin frowning, she thought for a while and said, "If the girl doesn't want the third girl to marry into An Guogong's mansion, there is a way, but if this is the case, the third girl may have to bear some bad reputation. gone."

  Shi Fuxin looked over.

  Nurse Leng: "It's still the same sentence. The Empress Dowager emphasizes the inheritance of the Xiao family's bloodline, and spread the news that the third girl and An Guogong are incompatible, which is not conducive to the inheritance of the descendants."

  Shi Fuxin was silent, and thought for a while: "This is my sister's lifelong event, and she has to make the decision." After saying that, she got up and went to find Shi Fuyin.

   "Sister, do you want to marry Xiao Ziqing?"

  In Fucui Hall, Shi Fuxin looked at Shi Fuyin seriously.

  Shi Fuyin's eyes drooped: "How can I be worthy of An Guogong!"

  Shi Fuxin frowned, not because she didn't want to marry, but because she didn't deserve it.

  Shi Fuyin looked at her younger sister: "With An Guogong coming forward, I don't think the Empress Dowager will force me. Don't mention this matter in the future."

  Shi Fuxin snorted: "You trust him."
