There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 759
[Chapter 759, Xiliao mission enters Beijing]
Prince Jingping and set aside the land to the east of the palace for Xiao Yeyang to build a new house, which caused quite a commotion in the palace.
Chen Yuan, the courtyard closest to the Pingxi Hall in the main courtyard on the west side of the palace, was allocated to Xiao Yechen by Prince Ping when he got married, and it was renovated and specially used as a new house.
“Don’t care how much the father and king have loved the mother, concubine and husband-in-law these years, compared with the first wife and first son, they are still a bit behind.”
In the main room, Luo Qiong was talking with the dowry maid.
Compared with other courtyards in the mansion, Chenyuan is undoubtedly the best in the mansion no matter in size, location, or grandeur. When she married in, Chenyuan was only slightly worse than Pingxi Hall, and even really Some people thought that the position of the eldest son of the palace would belong to the prince.
But now.
Hearing the construction in full swing on the east side of the palace, Luo Qiong showed a hint of sarcasm on his face.
The father may be doting on his mother, concubine and Xianggong, but he probably never thought of making Xianggong his son.
Since ancient times, the east is the most expensive, and it can be seen from the site selection of the new house when the father and the husband married Xiao Yeyang that no matter how bad the relationship between Xiao Yeyang and the father is, the father still prefers him.
The servant girl felt aggrieved for her own girl. The reason why the Duke of the Kingdom agreed to the uncle’s marriage proposal was because of the prince’s love for the uncle, thinking that the title of the prince’s mansion would fall to the uncle in the future.
But now, the prince obviously values the young prince more. The courtyard on the east side has just started to be rebuilt, and the prince has already sent someone to make a plaque. I heard that the young prince’s new house is named Pingxi Hall.
The main courtyard where the prince lives is called Pingxi Hall, and the place where the little prince lives is called Pingxi Hall. Isn’t this telling everyone that the son of the prince is the little prince?
If my son-in-law can’t inherit the title of the palace, then it would be too worthless for her daughter to marry.
At this moment, a servant girl walked in quickly: “Grandma, the princess has a headache again, and just sent someone to announce the imperial physician.”
Luo Qiong sneered, as a mother-in-law, she could only resort to such unsightly means.
When it came to the battle for the royal title, she naively thought that her trick of pretending to be weak and pitiful would still work!
Luo Qiong asked casually: “Where did Mr. Xiang go?” The
servant girl shook her head: “The eldest son went to the third prince’s mansion early in the morning.”
Luo Qiong sighed, remained silent for a long time, and then quietly said: “Father, did you see him go?” At first glance, if this person is not good, then we can avoid talking about the others.” As long
as her husband or mother-in-law is very useful, she can still develop some fighting spirit, but she is surrounded by idiots, so what’s the use of fighting alone? ?
The mother-in-law, the dignified princess, used some concubine means to gain the attention of the father and king all day long. She couldn’t figure out what the duty of a regular wife was.
As for Xianggong, he didn’t try to please the emperor to get an errand, but instead made friends with some useless officials.
It is very important to build a network, but the premise is that he himself has the value of making people communicate, so as to maintain the network.
People who hang out in the capital are very realistic. If they don’t have benefits that others can get, let alone make friends, it’s fine if they don’t bite back.
She had told Xianggong many times about this kind of thing, but he was still stubborn.
This background and knowledge really determine a person’s pattern!
Luo Qiong sighed silently, got up to tidy up, and went to see Princess Ma, her mother-in-law was sick, and as a daughter-in-law, she had to take care of her illness.
No matter how Princess Ma pretended to be sick, how unwilling Xiao Yechen was, and how the people in the palace moved, Pingxi Hall was gradually improving bit by bit.
The days slipped away day by day, besides going to the government office, Xiao Yeyang would personally inquire about the progress of the renovation of the new house every day. During the busy time, the news that the Xiliao Mission was coming was also spread to the capital.
Jinlingwei Office.
After Xiao Yeyang left the Yamen, he asked Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai to leave together.
“This time, the Xiliao mission came to Beijing with the slogan of celebrating the queen mother’s birthday. The person in charge of receiving the Xiliao mission has already come down. It is Jiang Jinghui from the Jiang family.”
Yan Wentao: “The time for his dismissal has not yet expired. A month?”
Xiao Yeyang sneered: “Jiang Jinghui is the eldest grandson of the Jiang family, and the queen mother and Cheng Engong will not let him stay silent. For Jiang Jinghui, the queen mother went to the government hall to look for the emperor in person yesterday. It’s a shame .”
Yan Wenkai curled his lips: “It’s different to have a backer behind it, and the ruined tribute can be handled so lightly.”
Xiao Yeyang looked at the two: “After the Xiliao Mission entered Beijing, , you should pay more attention to their movements, the people from Xiliao come here this time, and they should have a lot of plans.”
Both Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai nodded solemnly.
On June 25, under the leadership of Jiang Jinghui, the Xiliao Mission entered the capital.
When the Western Liao Mission entered the city, the scene was extraordinarily grand, and the people in Beijing and China rushed to watch.
Daohua booked a private room on the second floor on the main street where the mission must pass. Early in the morning, she and Han Xinran and Yan Yihuan waited here to see the Xiliao people.
This time, a prince, a prince and a princess came to the royal family of Xiliao, and all three of them entered the city on horseback.
The people from Xiliao were tall and tall, with three-dimensional facial features. Surrounded by many soldiers, the three of them looked quite majestic.
“The prince and princess of Xiliao look good!”
“It’s just that Princess Xiliao’s chin is so high, isn’t her neck sore?
” She is so arrogant, who does she think she is?” A
mocking voice came from the next door, Daohua turned her head and found it was Wu Xirong and Kang Naixin.
The person who spoke was Wu Xirong. Her father was the governor of the Fifth Army Commander’s Mansion. Since she was a child, she had heard many stories about Xiliao people’s invasion of the border, and she didn’t have a good impression of Xiliao people at all.
Daohua walked over to greet the two of them, and then drank a cup of tea together. After the people on the street dispersed, they went back home.
royal palace.
The emperor received the Xiliao mission in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and held a palace banquet that night to welcome them.
At the palace banquet, the emperor saw that Jiang Jinghui was getting along well with the Xiliao royal family and officials, worried that the Jiang family and the Xiliao royal family would mix up in private, so he sent Xiao Yeyang to be responsible for the reception of the Xiliao mission.
The next day, the Second Prince, the First Prince and the Seventh Princess of Xiliao couldn’t wait to ask to see the bustling and bustling capital of Great Xia.
“Yeyang, the Second Prince of Xiliao and the Eldest Prince want to visit our racecourse. I’ll take them there. As for the Seventh Princess, I’ll trouble you to take care of it!” Jiang Jinghui said to Xiao Yeyang with a smile.
Xiao Yeyang glanced at him indifferently: “It’s just a foreign princess, there’s no need for me to accompany her personally, and then just send a few people to follow.” Then, without waiting for Jiang Jinghui to refute, he said, “I’ll be with you Go to the racecourse.”
Hearing this, the smile on Jiang Jinghui’s face became far-fetched: “Is Yeyang worried about me?”
Xiao Yeyang looked at Jiang Jinghui, with a half-smile and said: “Why do you think so, I I just want to run the errand assigned by Uncle Huang.” As he spoke, he seemed puzzled, “What do you worry me about?”
Jiang Jinghui stopped talking: “Then let’s go together.”
