Qin Hanzhen said: "I also feel that this rumor spread too fast. Not to mention whether it is true or not, it spread to so many people in just a few days. It is still a relatively fixed ethnic group, and almost no one else has heard of it.
, I think there is something wrong with the way the rumors spread. Maybe we can infer who is spreading the news."
Zhao Mo hurriedly asked: "Who does my cousin think he is?"
Qin Hanzhen thought for a while: "First of all, the Queen Mother comforted the Crown Princess of Shu. It can be seen that the Cining Palace has also heard about this matter. Not many female relatives who went to Cining Palace to meet the Queen Mother were few because the Chinese New Year was coming soon.
, everyone is busy with family matters. Anyway, there is always a chance to meet during the New Year. Unless there is something urgent, there is no need to rush to the palace in those two or three days. Therefore, I infer that the source of the news from Cining Palace should be in
In the palace. Maybe it's over in the East Palace? The Prince of Shu met Chen's daughter in the East Palace. Chen's daughter had been sent back to the Chen family afterwards, but Chen Liangdi is still in the palace."
Zhao Mo hesitated: "Could this be news that Chen Liangdi deliberately released? But in my impression, she only wanted the clan girl to become the concubine of His Highness the Crown Prince, so that she could have a child. I guess she didn't want to do so.
Later, I spared the life of this clan girl, so I refused to let my niece enter the palace, and only chose a beautiful and helpless orphan girl from the clan. For this reason, I did not hesitate to break the contract and refused to marry that clan girl to my second uncle as my successor.
Room. I have indeed heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no interest in the daughter of the Chen family. If he had not remembered that Chen Liangdi had served him for many years and had given birth to a grandson for him, thus saving Chen Liangdi's face, he might have let the Crown Princess have his wife long ago.
The Chen family's daughter was expelled from the palace. However, the Crown Princess did persuade Chen Liangdi to send her away several times. Chen Liangdi kept her on the pretext that she was seriously ill and needed the care of her clan sisters. But from this, it can also be inferred that the Crown Prince
His Highness's attitude is that he will never allow the Chen family to have another concubine from the East Palace and a new grandson. The Chen family's daughter has no future in the East Palace, but everyone knows the purpose of Chen Liangdi and the Chen family.
After my daughter leaves the palace, it will be impossible for her to get into a good marriage, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to even propose a marriage."
Under such a premise, if the Chen family has the opportunity to get the crown prince of Shu, even if the crown prince is an empty-handed person, they will probably be willing to do so, right? After all, he is a royal nobleman, and the Chen family's daughter will be well off if she becomes his stepmother.
It is the best fig leaf.
If Chen's daughter and the Chen family planned this way, it would be reasonable, but Chen Liangdi... I'm afraid she still refuses to give up, right? The prince of Shu didn't help her at all, and she still looked forward to having an imperial grandson. Since
If the clan girl can't succeed this time, then she should choose another talent. It is not a smart idea for the family to marry the prince of Shu, a clan who has been suspected of treason...
Zhao Mo also noticed something: "It is very detrimental to Chen's daughter if this kind of news spreads. Earlier, Chen Liangdi tried to arrange for her to enter the East Palace but failed. Her marriage was already in trouble and her reputation was ruined. Now she is involved in seduction.
With her reputation as a wife's husband, her first wife has already coveted the position of stepmother before her death. Even if the Prince of Shu is really passionate about her, he still has to consider the gossip that will arise after marrying her, right? He is the Queen of Sin, and now
It was only because of the emperor's kindness that he managed to survive, and because of the empress dowager's pity for his children, he was now living a life of wealth and ease. If his actions harmed his children and offended the empress dowager and the emperor, what would his current wealth and ease be?
Can he still be saved? He is not a brainless fool, there is no way he would not take this into consideration."
Therefore, if the source of the rumor is Chen Liangdi, doing so will not do her any good, and it will be even worse for the Chen family and the Chen daughters. If she is angry that her clan sister betrayed her and started a new one, so she deliberately used this method to retaliate, it sounds like
Maybe it's more reasonable.
But Qin Hanzhen had some objections to this: "The scope of the spread of rumors is not only in the palace, but also among the royal relatives. Forget about the royal relatives, for example, the Huang family has people in the imperial guard.
He holds office and has a close relationship with His Highness the Crown Prince. Maybe he got the news from the palace or the East Palace, which is unknown. But not everyone in the clan has the opportunity to go to the palace before the new year. How did they hear about it? And listen to me.
Grandma said that the female relatives in the clan know a lot of details, and it doesn’t seem to be just hearsay. Could it be that the Crown Princess of Shu or the attendants around her told them?"
Zhao Mo was a little puzzled: "How could this be the news that the Crown Princess of Shu had someone let her out?"
"How is it impossible?" Qin Hanzhen said, "If she really felt that her husband had fallen in love with Chen's daughter at first sight, fell in love with her again, and would be with her life and death, she would be so ill that she would die, and she would not know her fate.
Soon, there was no way to stop her husband from having sex after her death. It was not impossible to spread the news first and ruin the reputation of the Chen family's daughter. The Chen family's daughter's reputation was not very good in the first place, and now it is even more infamous.
Being forced by these rumors, it would be great if she was forced to marry someone else to clear up the rumors. If that didn't work, then she would put on the air of being a virtuous and generous wife and take him in as a concubine.
, isn’t this Chen’s daughter at her mercy? What if the Prince of Shu has been stunned by his mistress and insists on marrying Chen’s daughter as his stepmother, and refuses to make her a concubine and marry her with such an unpleasant reputation?
A woman who enters the clan will definitely arouse the resentment of the Queen Mother, the Emperor and other clan elders in the future. Even if the Chen family gives birth to an heir, who will support her son to replace the throne of the King of Shu?"
Zhao Mo pondered: "That makes sense. If this rumor comes out, it can force the prince of Shu to wake up and stop entangled with Chen's daughter. It may be more in line with the prince of Shu's concubine."
However... how did the Crown Princess of Shu spread the rumors to this point? How long has it been since she ended her life in captivity? There are not many confidant maids left around her, and her family has fallen into decline. And this will obviously happen
She couldn't assign her husband's men to do things that would damage the reputation of the Prince of Shu. She was a patient and had few opportunities to go out. It was said that apart from occasionally going to the palace to see the Queen Mother and the Crown Princess, she also
With a pair of children, she has almost no contact with other female members of the clan. If she is the one who did it, she must be able to do it successfully!
Qin Hanzhen felt a little confused after listening to Zhao Mo's analysis. Those who have the ability have no motive, and those who have the motive do not seem to have the ability, so who is spreading these rumors?
She asked Zhao Mo: "Will this rumor have any serious impact on anyone?"
Zhao Mo thought for a while: "The reputation of the prince of Shu may become worse, but after he was originally a criminal, his future has been ruined, and he is just a wealthy and idle person. His reputation has not much to do with him. Besides, he has never
It's just a rumor that he really had an affair with Chen's daughter. Maybe the Empress Dowager and the Emperor would reprimand him privately, and if he just defended himself a little, it would be fine. Unless he lost his wife in the future and really married Chen's daughter to fill the house.
, otherwise there is no actual evidence for others to even say that he is obsessed with things. In the final analysis, no matter how widespread this rumor is, it is nothing more than a romantic affair."
The harm of rumors to Chen's daughter and the Chen family is more obvious. The most serious point is that Chen's daughter may not be able to find any decent family in the capital. If she is allowed to marry outside the capital, the Chen family will not know
Are you willing to do so? After the gossip spread, the signs of the Chen family falling out of favor in front of His Royal Highness the Prince of the East Palace became very obvious. In the past, for Chen Liangdi's sake, outsiders would treat the Chen family politely when they met, even if they looked down upon the Chen family.
, it will be difficult to say from now on.
Chen Liangdi's situation may not be good. Even though she was the only woman who gave birth to an heir for the prince, now everyone can see clearly that the prince is not even willing to take her clan sister as a concubine, and he has nothing to do with her.
How much pampering? For an old woman with no pampering and no children, even if the prince ascends the throne in the future and she is promoted to a noble concubine, she will have no power at all. She is still not as powerful as the Crown Princess Tang. After all, the Crown Princess is the official wife and has always been respected by the prince.
, and a daughter.
Qin Hanzhen and Zhao Mo analyzed it for a long time, but they couldn't figure out who was spreading the rumor deliberately. They could only infer that the person who spread the rumor must have helpers or connections in the palace and clan. It was still early,
They can't see what consequences such rumors can have, and they can't figure out the purpose of the people who spread them. They can only wait and see for a while and ask for more information, so that they can grasp more information and draw more specific conclusions.
Mrs. Niu had already set up two banquet tables outside, and sent her maid to urge Qin Hanzhen and Zhao Mo to go out for dinner. The two looked at each other, then put their minds aside for the time being, and ate first before talking.
Everyone enjoyed the family banquet at the Yongjia Marquis Mansion, but a few miles away, the Crown Princess of Shu was sitting at the table in fear, lowering her head in silence, and facing the table full of delicacies, there was not even the slightest bit of food.
Desire to eat.
The Prince of Shu stared at his wife expressionlessly for a long time, then raised his hand to pour himself a glass of wine, and said slowly: "What you did is not wrong. It is really abrupt to confess our purpose to the Crown Princess so quickly.
A little too much will easily arouse her alertness. Fool her first and let her think that you have no idea about the position of royal heir. In the future, if you push Da Lang to get closer to her, she will not be suspicious easily. etc.
She has gotten along a lot with Da Lang and feels affection for him. If he pushes the child away, she won't be able to let him go. When the time comes to talk about adoption, what's not to say?"
He took a sip of the warm wine and put down the glass: "It's just that you have to tell Da Lang a few words to ask him to be well-behaved and please the Crown Princess."
The Crown Princess of Shu's heart was cold, but she still had a smile on her face: "Yes, Crown Prince, don't worry, I met Da Lang today. Da Lang told me that he got along very well with Princess Minshun. Minshun
The princess is very close to him. With Princess Minshun as a liaison, the princess will definitely love Da Lang even more."
"That's good." The Prince of Shu smiled at his wife, with an indescribable tenderness on his face, "In the future, you should stop making your own decisions. At least you should tell me before you act, so as not to make me worry.
Yes. You are Dalang’s biological mother, is it possible that I am not his biological father? Everything we and our husbands are doing now is for the future of our children, and there really is nothing that can go wrong. Can you understand?"
The Crown Prince of Shu's body trembled slightly, but she still tried her best to answer with a smile: "I understand, Crown Prince, don't worry."
