The old lady of the Zheng family has not given up the idea of letting her daughter give birth to a prince.
The other concubines’ natal families naturally did not give up either.
Especially, seeing Xuanyuan Jin, the deposed prince who was originally abandoned, not only come back alive, but also alive and well.
Each and every one of them hopes that their daughter will give birth to a son as soon as possible, and they are even more urgent.
Naturally, this is what the concubines’ natal families want.
As for the aristocratic families in the capital, or the newly wealthy families, they have different thoughts.
Everyone is not a fool.
Even if the third prince was deposed as prince, he was still the emperor's only legitimate son.
It would be fine if he died outside, but he came back intact.
Not only that, he was brought back by the Queen Mother herself!
Although the Queen Mother did not care about government affairs, she devoted herself to worshiping Buddha.
But because of this, it became even more prestigious in the hearts of courtiers.
What's more, the witchcraft case was so loud that year that Mr. Sun Ge was killed inexplicably, but the Queen was still the Queen.
The emperor deposed the young prince who was implicated by the empress, but did not depose the queen...
Does this have any other meaning? Who knows?
There is no telling what day the deposed prince will be re-instated as prince.
For a time, all the major families in the capital were agitated by the news, and they all considered whether their daughters of the right age could become the third prince's concubine, then the crown prince, and finally the empress of the world...
It can be said that after Xuanyuan Jinlong returned to Beijing, the most direct effect was as if Tang Monk fell into a goblin cave.
At this time, the Bai family.
The feng shui cycle was turning, and the second master spoke with his head held high.
"What am I talking about? His Highness the Third Highness must be the emperor's favorite prince!" The second master shouted loudly: "Brother and sister-in-law, you are cautious and look forward and backward. Not only did you miss a great opportunity, but you also made such a big mistake.
The Queen Mother is angry. Now that the Queen Mother is back, what if she forces you to resign?"
These days, the elder has been delaying going to court after returning to Beijing on the pretext of recuperating from illness.
Naturally, he did not resign to the emperor.
As long as the Empress Dowager does not force me, I will never ask for my resignation.
One day at a time, the matter of resignation will be over until the Queen Mother calms down.
In short, in their opinion, the Queen Mother is a aunt who left the Bai family and will not watch the decline of the Bai family.
After hearing what the second master said, the eldest man was very upset.
In the past, the two brothers were considered brothers and sisters.
I went back to my hometown once, and all the friendship seemed to be gone.
"Second brother, are you saying this because of your heart?" The elder was poked in the foot and said with a dark face: "I begged the Queen Mother so hard to give Qing'er a chance. What's the result?
"
The second master hesitated.
The daughter only stayed with the Queen Mother for two days before she was sent back in disgrace.
When he asked, his daughter just said that His Highness didn't like her at all.
If she continues to hang out in front of His Highness the Third Prince, she will only lose the Bai family's face!
I have to say that the second master was also surprised that his daughter, who had always been proud and arrogant, actually said such depressing words.
At the same time, I also gave up.
Unexpectedly, this became the reason for the elder brother to fight back against him.
The elder was speechless and the second elder was speechless, and then looked at the old lady.
Yes, the old lady who originally wanted to return to her roots and live in Qingzhou Mansion until death, followed her back to the capital.
Euphemistically speaking, her grandson was about to get engaged and marry his daughter-in-law, and she came back to drink her grandson-in-law's tea.
In fact, she took the health pills given by Tangbao and felt that she could live a few more years.
"Mom, what do you think we should do about this matter?" the elder asked.
The old lady did not answer the eldest man. She first looked at the second master and said in a stern voice: "Second brother, the eldest brother is the father. Even if your eldest brother did something wrong, it was for the good of this family. I will not treat you badly in the future.
Brother is rude!"
The elder's eyes were red and he almost shed tears.
Sure enough, it was my mother who could understand my painstaking efforts and speak out to defend myself.
The second master was scolded by the old lady and said unwillingly: "I understand, mother."
After saying that, seeing the old lady still staring at him, she had to add: "Mom, you don't know, I just have this bad temper. I naturally respect my elder brother..."
When the second master said this, the old lady became less angry.
Then, he looked at his two sons, with a trace of exhaustion on his face.
"You remember, it is a taboo for brothers to fight against each other, but it is a sign of a prosperous family if brothers work together." The old lady said seriously: "Now that things have happened, it is not the time to blame each other, but to think about how to make amends."
"Yes, mother, what you taught me is that my son will remember it." The elder said quickly.
When the second master saw it, he secretly rolled his eyes and said, "My son also remembers it."
The old lady nodded with satisfaction and said: "For the current plan, we must marry the girl from the Xia family as soon as possible. As long as the girl becomes the daughter-in-law of the Bai family, she will naturally consider the Bai family. In this way,
Shuzhi's official career will surely be smooth sailing and he will rise to the top, and he will be able to support the Bai family in the future..."
As soon as the old lady finished speaking, the elder showed a sigh of relief.
"My mother was the most foresighted and arranged this good marriage for her son in advance." The eldest man said: "The Xia family will come to the capital in the near future. At that time, the son and his wife will go to the Xia family to discuss the betrothal and marriage matters...
…”
If it were the Xia family in the past, the couple would not even bother to visit.
At most, send an official media outlet to talk about this matter.
That's different now.
In just a short time, things have changed a lot.
Not only was Xia Zhifu transferred to the capital, he was also promoted one level and became a powerful young minister of Dali Temple.
Not to mention, the position of Minister of Dali Temple is just around the corner.
As a result, the Xia family's family status has risen several steps.
What's more, there is also the relationship between the Xia family and the Su family, and the Su family and the Third Highness.
Although it was a roundabout way, as far as they knew, the girl from the Xia family had mostly lived in the Su family in the past few years, and she was like a daughter of the Su family.
But the Bai family is different. Seeing that the big tree of the Queen Mother is becoming unreliable.
If the Xia family is at its peak, then the Bai family has a tendency to decline.
"This Xia family is really lucky to have climbed up to the Su family so early." The second master clicked his tongue and said: "The third highness just treated that little girl from the Su family as if he was protecting her.
That little girl is also good-looking. Even if she is a younger sister now, she might get married in the future... What's wrong? Did I say something wrong? "
When the second master saw the old lady and the eldest master staring at him, he couldn't help but ask, thinking that he had made a mistake.
The old lady and the eldest man looked at each other, but neither mother nor son spoke.
They had no choice but to think that the second master might have discovered the truth.
