[065] Concubine Shun's Way of Survival
Furthermore, the emperor personally promoted him to the lowest level, so even if he has Prince Dun's favor, other officials will think twice before using him. Therefore, it seems that Yuan Qiyu still has a chance, but in fact, unless something goes against him
God's luck, otherwise he would have no chance of getting up, and he is already dead. If he still leaves a bad impression on the emperor, King Dun will probably give up on him.
Wenren Taibo couldn't help but sigh in his heart, but Emperor Xuan Ren laughed, "You little nerd, you are really a nerd to say that you are a nerd, you don't know how to arrange it when people see it, but it doesn't matter.
No, it’s rare to have an innocent heart.”
Wen Renyang was never really stupid, he was just obsessed with reading, and few external things could disturb him. Over time, he formed certain habits. To outsiders, it seemed that he was slow to react. In fact, he was slow to respond to many things.
He knew in his heart that he still said that, he just didn't care, whether it was praise or disparagement, but when it really benefited him, he also knew how to deal with it.
Emperor Xuanren still had government affairs to deal with, so he didn't leave many followers.
Not long after Wen Renyang left the palace, Yuan Qiyu's affairs quickly became known with Emperor Xuanren's tacit approval.
Obviously, Emperor Xuanren also sounded the alarm to some people. Don't think that if you reach this point, you will reach the sky in one step, so that you will get carried away. Maybe he is just like many gentlemen and wives in the imperial city who borrowed the name of "talented scholar" from others.
As Yuan Qiyu was a party involved, he naturally learned the news relatively early.
He was so stimulated by Wen Renyang that he fainted in the morning, and now he vomited blood and fell into coma again. This time, he didn't wake up as easily as before. You must know that when he entered the imperial city to prepare for the test, he knew that there was
With nobles like Concubine Shun and Prince Dun, as long as he passed the exam, he didn't have to worry about his future at all, and his family never thought that he would fail the exam. Therefore, the whole family, young and old, followed him and prepared to enjoy the blessings.
.
Before the results of the palace examination came out, they were ranked in the bottom of the top three, which made the emperor disgusted. They suddenly felt that the sky was falling and the earth was falling. They all cried loudly, as if their parents had died. Perhaps, in their hearts,
This is more serious than losing your parents.
"Cry, cry, cry, what's the use of crying now? Hurry and go to Mrs. Zhou and ask her to go into the palace to find Concubine Shun. Let's try to find a way to see if we can see King Dun. It would be best if there is room for redemption. If so,
..." This person is speaking from Yuan Qiyu's grandfather, the patriarch of the family, and the Mrs. Zhou he is talking about is Concubine Shun's biological mother, the daughter of the Yuan family.
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away." His old wife wiped away her tears and took her daughter-in-law, Yuan Qiyu's mother, to Zhou's house. The unconscious Yuan Qiyu was completely ignored. Obviously, in their
In his eyes, Yuan Qiyu's future is more important than himself.
Yuan Qiyu was originally one of the helpers trained for King Dun, and it was impossible for the Zhou family to ignore him. However, at this hour today, it was impossible to enter the palace, so they could only do it as early as possible tomorrow.
As for Prince Dun's palace, Prince Dun did see him, but Prince Dun didn't make any clear statement. He understood his father's temper. If he had already said it, there was basically no room for change. He didn't have to do it with Yuan Qiyu.
Apart from being useful, Qi Yu could not bring him any other benefits. There was no point in interceding for such a person at the risk of offending his father. To put it bluntly, he had actually given up on Yuan Qi Yu in his heart.
Therefore, King Dun's choice really did not go beyond Wen Renyang's expectations.
But he was still angry. He was angry because Wen Renji didn't give him face. When the incident spread, he still had to be laughed at to death!
Moreover, he couldn't keep the people who had their name here. There were still a few of those new scholars who were willing to join him, but they had a complete grudge against the Wen people.
The Zhou family still didn't know what King Dun was thinking, and they were trying to make a last-ditch effort. King Dun didn't stop him. It would be best if he could save Yuan Qiyu. As for whether his mother and concubine would offend his father, he didn't know.
I'm worried that there is still affection between the mother-in-law and the father. They are just asking for mercy. At worst, the father will not agree, so he won't make the mother-in-law angry.
So if you achieve the best, there is no loss if you fail.
There is no queen in the main palace, and Concubine Shun, as one of the people who assists in managing the harem, does not need the permission of others to meet people outside the palace.
Concubine Shun knew that she was not very smart, not even as good as her sister in Pingyang Hou Mansion, but she refused her sister's help from the beginning, because Pingyang Hou and the emperor were completely different men, so she wanted to win over Pingyang Hou.
Using other methods to win over the emperor is seeking death. Concubine Shun is neither smart nor stupid.
She has been able to reach this day and can raise her son safely. Even if there are countless newcomers, she has long since lost favor, and she can still occupy a place in the harem. Even the virtuous concubine does not dare to touch her. She naturally has her own survival.
way.
To put it bluntly, she likes whatever the emperor likes, and if the emperor doesn't like it, she won't like it but won't add insult to injury. Even if she educates her son, it's just an ordinary education. She never instills any ideas into him, and the method is very clumsy.
, however, it was very effective for Emperor Xuanren.
Emperor Xuanren was never a ungrateful person. As long as he didn't make big mistakes, it was okay to be a little temperamental occasionally. He was also very tolerant of the people who had been serving him since the palace, and Concubine Shun was the most important among them. Therefore,
, even if he was not favored, he would occasionally go to Shun Concubine's palace to sit there. This kind of closeness was something that even good concubines did not have. Several concubines with higher rankings were often jealous.
With this kind of love, what Concubine Shun wants to do is naturally easier than being beaten, but will she plead with Emperor Xuanren? Of course not, knowing that there is no room for change in this matter, does Yuan Qiyu have any feelings for her son?
It's nothing, so how stupid can she be to waste that love? Love is always limited, especially if it is given by the emperor, don't expect it to be effective forever, so cherish it even more and use it on the edge at critical moments.
.
But King Dun didn't know this. However, King Dun did not go to the palace to dissuade her, and she was not disappointed. Her son was just like her, not a very smart person, and had some ambitions that did not match his abilities. However,
She had never thought about her son sitting in that position. Of course, Concubine Shun did not tell Prince Dun about this issue. After all, she was her biological son, so she could save some face for him.
She also knew that her son was actually not a very bold person, and he did not dare to go overboard even if he was thoughtful. However, the things he had the courage to do were within the tolerance of the emperor. In other words, the emperor even took some care of his children.
Noisy indulgence. The emperor was in his prime, and he could always make arrangements for his son in the future, so Concubine Shun was not worried.
Therefore, when Wen Renying was in her last life, the throne fell to King Dun, Concubine Shun was not happy, but collapsed. In fact, she did see it accurately. After her son ascended the throne, her life was not easy, and she ended up miserable.
.
The reason why I agreed to the sign handed in from outside the palace was that, firstly, it was my mother, and secondly, it should be struck appropriately. Therefore, when Concubine Shun's mother came in with her original family, Concubine Shun even had
Do vase placement in a leisurely manner.
After seeing the ceremony, Concubine Shun served tea while watching others, and then slowly washed her hands.
Before she could speak, the original family members finally couldn't hold it in any longer and began to cry miserably.
It was not the first time for them to meet Concubine Shun. They had been brought in by Mrs. Zhou once before. They were still nervous at first, but seeing that Concubine Shun was a good-natured person, they seemed to be very relaxed this time.
Be careful about the image and occasion.
"Okay, don't cry. There's no point in crying. I won't plead with the emperor."
The crying stopped suddenly due to Concubine Shun's indifference. She looked at Concubine Shun blankly, as if she couldn't believe that such an amiable Concubine Shun had turned out like this. Was it because she asked for her help? She was essentially like this
A mercenary person?
Seeing the change in their eyes, Concubine Shun didn't take it seriously. "I've never seen that child of yours. I don't know very well what happened yesterday. However, just from what I know,
Judging from these things, has the child been raised crookedly by you? Where is this place? There are a lot of nobles at the emperor's feet, but he is even more frivolous than those people.
He was arrogant and arrogant. He didn't know anything about the situation, so he dared to make rude remarks. If he really met a noble person, he might be beaten to death. Besides, Wenren Yang had such a prominent reputation in the imperial city.
, everyone has already announced his family name, and yet he stupidly bumped into him and humiliated himself. He has been in the imperial city for a long time, right? A scholar, shouldn’t the person you associate with also be a scholar? If you associate with a scholar, wouldn’t you know that Wen Renyang
This person? So, what does he do all day long?
Not to mention the emperor's eloquent words, even if he can plead for mercy, I will not open my mouth. I feel embarrassed.
Let me tell you that with his temper, it would be good for him to fall down now, so that he can know that there are people outside the world, and there is a heaven outside the world, so as not to cause greater trouble in the future and bring trouble to me and King Dun."
The original family was speechless. Has their child been raised crookedly? Maybe so, because the child is smart, and because he has a relative like King Dun, his target has been planned for a long time. The whole family has placed hope on him. He is his direct relative.
If the elders have seemingly nonexistent indulgence, bottomless praise, and other people's flattery to please them, they will be arrogant and arrogant, and they really think they are a nobody.
They were actually aware of these things, but before coming to the imperial city, no one took them seriously. They had a big backer, so what if they were a little more arrogant? The result...
Madam Zhou had no intention of speaking again. Her daughter and grandson were naturally much more important than outsiders.
"Okay, if you don't have anything else to do, just go out of the palace. Today is the Si Festival, which is a good day for an outing. It doesn't matter if you go out for a quick trip, don't think too much, it will be in vain. - Mother
Do you want to go with them, or leave some food in the palace and go back later in the afternoon?" Concubine Shun's attitude in driving them away was quite rude.
It was not easy for Mrs. Zhou to see her daughter. It was impossible for Mrs. Zhou to hand out a sign whenever she wanted. When she came, she naturally wanted to be closer to her daughter and chose to stay, while the original family had no choice but to leave.
Xiaocao naturally went out with her family now. She was alone before, and she was very busy every day. Not to mention the Shangsi Festival, she always celebrated the major festivals in the same way, and there seemed to be no difference.
It's different now, and Xiaocao's mood is completely different. It's still good to enjoy life.
Compared with yesterday's trip, the number of people traveling today was quite large. Except for those who could not go out and those who went to the Yamen, all the others came out. It was a huge and lively event.
The Imperial City and its surroundings are so big, there are many places to go, and the gap between high and low today is not that big. Of course, even so, ordinary people can only see the wealth of high-ranking families from a distance.
In order to prevent something like yesterday from happening again, Mrs. Han not only ordered her maid to serve her well, but also warned Wen Renying to follow her fourth sister closely. Wen Renying happily accepted the task assigned by her mother.
Is this the rhythm of "making a mistake" once and losing credibility? Although she felt helpless, Xiaocao accepted it well.
Along the way, I met many acquaintances and exchanged greetings with each other. Xiaocao got to know a few more people, but as the saying goes, once you get to know them twice, you will calm down after two more visits.
I heard that people did not follow the trend and go to the stream. Ordinary hillsides, small woods and other places are all good choices.
Along the way, we can see many young men galloping on their horses, courting friends, wearing bright clothes and angry horses.
The older children and the younger children happily flew kites and played games. At the same time, they also brought a lot of fruits and snacks from home. Those who were more sophisticated would set up a table, and those who were more casual would just lay mats on the ground, casually.
I sat on the edge and started enjoying it. It couldn't be more leisurely and comfortable.
After Xiaocao returned to Wenren's house, she felt relatively relaxed, but it was still not as good as today.
Sitting on the ground, hugging her knees with her hands, closing her eyes, letting the breeze blow over her cheeks, she felt comfortable. Wen Renying lazily nestled next to her, and stretched out a hand to protect Xiaocao's waist, unable to catch up.
After leaving, Wen Renying still smiled and expressed that she was afraid that she would run away.
Han left for a while in the middle, but when he came back his face was not very good.
"Mom, what's wrong?" Xiaocao raised her head and asked.
Han sat directly next to Xiaocao, "I just saw the Meng family. Do you still remember the Meng family?"
"Xiaosi's fiancée's house?" There were too many people there, so there was a possibility that someone might be confused.
Wen Renying also sat up and looked at her mother.
"Yes, on the day of our family's banquet, Yang'er's fiancée didn't come to the door. People in their family said they felt cold. When I saw the Meng family, I went to take a look. The girl was still not there, so I asked about the situation. Just to see
The Meng family was hesitating and there seemed to be something wrong with their expressions. Now that I think about it carefully, the Meng family's expressions didn't seem natural that day either. I was wondering, is there something wrong with that girl?" What happened a few months later?
Mrs. Han was somewhat worried about her daughter-in-law who was coming to visit her.
Xiaocao pulled Wen Renying's hand away and stood up directly, "If Mom is worried, let's go and take a look."
"Go now?" Mrs. Han was surprised. Her daughter said that "wind is like rain"?
