"Pull a hair and make the head move, pull a hair and make the body change, but the hairs are all my head, and the pores are all my body." [Records of Dabei Pavilion in Chengdu]
Seeing that Jin Shang, a native of Kansai, had to worship two thousand stones, and several Confucian scholars he recommended were approved by the emperor and were allowed to participate in the Taixue meeting, but Song Hong himself received nothing. This made Song Hong very unhappy.
, he felt that this was a wedding dress for the Ma family; at the same time, he felt aggrieved. His daughter was so favored, why didn't the emperor love Wujiwu and give him more kindness?
"It's the eldest princess." Guo Cainv said as she left the palace the next afternoon.
These words made Song Hong stunned. He just asked casually, but he didn't expect Guo Cainu to answer seriously: "How can she be the eldest princess?" He thought seriously about whether he had offended Liu in his daily life.
Jiang asked, "Did the eldest princess say something?"
"Didn't Duke Song ask Mu Huangmen to bring a message to your noble lord? He said that Qili was too dilapidated and inconvenient to live in, so your noble lord specifically mentioned this matter to Your Majesty last night." Guo Cainv paused and said, "Your Majesty also agreed at that time.
He said that as long as Song Gong is willing, he can live in Jiadi, Beique, and your Majesty will give Song Gong a mansion when the time comes."
This was obviously the emperor's excuse to coax the capital of Song Dynasty. Song Hong knew that the emperor was unhappy with him for moving to Beique Jiadi without authorization and making friends with ministers. How could he dare to move back now?
He quickly waved his hands and said: "I appreciate your Majesty's kindness. After you go back, don't let this nobleman mention this matter again."
"My servant thinks so too. As long as a nobleman is favored, Duke Song will be put to great use sooner or later. Just like a candle at night, it will attract people to you if you stand there. Why should you take the initiative to approach him? He has been unlucky for no reason."
Guo Cainv pursed her lips and smiled.
Guo Cainv has always been a smart and capable person, and what she said makes sense. Song Hong couldn't help but sigh: "A noble person doesn't know much about the world. I feel relieved that you are taking care of her."
After saying that, Song Hongfu made another promise: "Although you are a maid, as long as you serve the noble man well, you will not have to worry about not being lucky enough to get promoted."
Guo Cainv's face turned red. She had actually had this idea for a long time. As a Cainu from an ordinary private family, she often returned home empty-handed in the end. Guo Cainv has always been ambitious, so she was naturally unwilling to do so. To avoid that situation
happened, she could only attract the emperor's attention, so she eagerly looked forward to the emperor last night, but it was a pity that the emperor's eyes never stayed on her for a moment. Maybe she should try wearing brighter clothes next time.
Seeing Guo Cainu's appearance, Song Hong knew that his promise had impressed the other party, so he asked again: "Go on, how does this matter have anything to do with the eldest princess?"
"Only." Guo Cainv came back from her thoughts, pondered for a moment, and said cautiously: "Somehow this matter spread out, and someone told the eldest princess. The eldest princess told you this morning, please tell me.
Queen Dema used the example of restraining her maternal family as an example, and then she seemed to go to His Majesty again."
"What did you say to your majesty?" This matter is a bit strange. Logically speaking, Pixiang Palace should all be members of its own people, so how could they get involved in the accusation? Song Hong was confused and wanted to hear what happened next.
Therefore, Guo Cainu replied with some embarrassment: "When the servant came, I asked Mu Huangmen and said that the eldest princess reminded your majesty about this, saying that Song Gong, you..."
"What did you say about me?"
"Fake show is useless without talent." As soon as Guo Cainv finished speaking, she hurriedly said: "The slaves behind me don't know either."
Song Hong was greatly surprised, and his heart was pounding with lightning. Several thoughts flashed through him at once, and he said in disbelief: "Is the eldest princess looking at me like this?"
Guo Cainv lowered her head and did not speak, which was undoubtedly her acquiescence.
"Yes, the eldest princess has always disliked noble people. She thinks she is not stable, and she is also prejudiced against me." Song Hong paced a few steps on the spot, thinking that as long as the emperor still loves Song Du, there will be nothing the eldest princess can do.
There was nothing he could say, after all, she wouldn't be able to stay in the palace for long. Finally, he paused and asked, "Has Your Majesty stayed in Yeting these days?"
"Yes." Guo Cainv replied: "Most of them stay at Pixiang Hall."
"My daughter is loved by His Majesty, and that's what I expected." Song Hong said proudly, and then sighed: "It's a pity that Your Majesty is still young after all."
Guo Cainv heard the regret in Song Hong's tone, and then said: "I was about to tell Duke Song about this. Your Majesty can do things in the house now."
As he said that, he told how he met the Jiaofang palace man that day and how he eavesdropped on what the other person was talking about.
"Ah!" Song Hong said hurriedly: "This is a great event! You have to persuade her to seize the opportunity and never let others take the lead."
"It's still early, the noble man hasn't even come to the sunflower water yet, how can he have sex." Guo Cainv said with a wry smile.
"Hey, that's right." Song Hong suddenly felt a sense of crisis. His daughter was still young, but the empress and Fu Guiren were all grown up. If the emperor knew about Dunlun's interest, he would inevitably have different thoughts. He raised his head and glanced at Guo Cainu:
"Who else knows about this?"
Guo Cainv answered truthfully: "Apart from the nobles and slaves, only the people in the Queen's Palace know."
"This is a major matter related to the country, but Dong knew it and did not report it. It is really abominable!" Song Hong said this, but he was actually unwilling to tell the outside world. He changed the topic and said: "The imperial doctor Ji Pi usually
Be kind to me, there is no female doctor in the palace now, you just need to ask him for some advice, it is important to take more care of yourself."
"That's right." Song Hong was just worried about the eldest princess Liu Jiang. At this time, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he suddenly changed his mind about continuing to hide it: "After you return to the palace, you might as well spread this matter.
.”
"Ah?" Guo Cainv said puzzledly: "No one around the queen has spoken out. This shows that this matter is important and there is no benefit in telling it out."
"You don't understand, just do as I say. Not only the noble Fu, but also the eldest princess and noble Huaiyuan will know about this matter." Song Du had made up his mind, and Guo Cainv saw that he looked determined, and also
It’s hard to say anything, just think that Song Hong has been immersed in officialdom for many years and thinks about some things more carefully than she does.
Although Guo Cainv was young, she was very efficient in her work. Soon, the news that she had been suppressed by Empress Dong for nearly half a month spread throughout the Weiyang Palace overnight. Everyone was happy when they learned about this. After all, this was indeed the case.
A great happy event.
Only Empress Dong was filled with hatred: "Go find out in private who is talking nonsense behind your back, and take him out to straighten out the palace rules!"
"Jinnuo." Chang Yu agreed, carefully looking at Empress Dong's expression of hesitation: "There are already some clues. The first thing was the news coming from Pixiang Hall."
"Song Capital?" Empress Dong sneered disdainfully: "Would she still come up with such an idea? The fact that this matter spread so fast is definitely not unintentional. There must be someone around her who told her."
"Then what should we do? Your Majesty often goes to the Xiang Hall. Now, I'm afraid..." Chang Yu said worriedly.
"There is no need to do anything. This is not directed at me. She is the one who should pay attention to... We have to help push her from behind." Empress Dong whispered something in Chang Yu's ear.
Soon, the story of the emperor's wet dream spread from inside the palace to outside the palace, and the ministers who were originally worried about the emperor's heirs all felt comforted. What followed closely was a memorial from Song Hong, a doctor in Zhongsan, saying that the emperor had already died.
Now that she has grown up, as her elder brother's widow, Tang Ji, a noble lady in Huaiyuan, should avoid suspicion and leave the palace to live separately.
