"My father often said that the blisters on your feet are all caused by yourself!"
Princess Nankang looked at the two sisters and continued, "It is no accident that the two brothers-in-law ended up today! In addition to the secret affair, there are all kinds of crimes. If you add up, several heads are not enough!" As she said, she sighed.
He said again, "You blame the emperor for not pitying you, but who will pity the people who have been ruined by the two brothers-in-law over the years?"
"Do the two sisters really have no idea about what they are doing? Sister, I have to say something bad, but as long as you try to persuade me, you will take care of me, and you won't end up like this today, right?"
"Don't you think anyone has impeached you for what they have done over the years? It's because the father suppressed the blame. Looking at your face, he just said a few words. We know the father's temperament, and he will be with you all his life.
When did you ever have sand in your eyes?"
"The fifth brother-in-law's family was originally involved in Hu Weiyong's case. If my father didn't pity you, fifth sister, would you have kept him for so many years and turned a blind eye to what he did?"
"Sixth sister, please don't tell me why my sixth brother-in-law is so bad. He is the one who came up with all the bad ideas, right? Why haven't he been allowed to go out on official business in the past few years? In the early years, he went to the local area to train troops, not with our vassal king.
They are flirting with each other, just to deduct soldiers' pay."
Princess Nankang spoke faster and faster. At first the two princesses were angry and wanted to argue, but gradually they both lowered their heads and wept softly.
"We are women and their wives, but our status is that we are the princesses of the Ming Dynasty first, the daughters of the Zhu family, and then their wives!"
Princess Nankang sighed and took out a handkerchief to help the two sisters wipe their tears, "We are not ignorant women among the people. We need to know how to distinguish some things! The two sisters said that the father is partial and does not pity you. If his words are heard by the old man,
How sad it must be when it arrives!”
"Isn't it pity to give the corpses of two brothers-in-law and not expose the evidence of their crimes to the world? Isn't it because he did this for your reputation and the future of your children?" He paused and said, "I'll say it again.
To put it bluntly, the two brothers-in-law should have ended up on their own from the day they entered Fusi Tianlao in Jinyiwei Town! Otherwise, they would not be the only ones to be affected."
"But..." Princess Huaiqing cried, "Your Majesty too...I begged him so much...knelt down and cried outside Qianqing Palace, knelt down and cried outside Kunning Palace...
..."
"It's even harder for the emperor! He is the emperor. Our father once said that being an emperor is to give everyone in the world justice." Princess Nankang said again, "Don't talk about the two brothers-in-law. According to the degree of closeness, I have to say something unpleasant.
, whether the Chang family is close to him or not, his close cousin is not the same because he sold war horses privately...!"
"Let me say something ugly again. Fifth brother is still his uncle! Now Fengyang is in the circle! In terms of status and identity, these two brothers-in-law are better than fifth brother?"
Princess Runing cried, "But... I also made a mistake, your prince-in-law..."
"I haven't complained about my two sisters yet!" Princess Nankang sneered, "My Hu Guan is doing well at home, but it was the fifth brother-in-law and the sixth brother-in-law who brought him in and caused trouble! Fortunately, he didn't get involved too deeply, and again
The first time I committed the crime, I tried to survive from death, but now I am just an empty-handed prince-in-law!"
As he said that, he didn't want to talk more about this, and sighed, "People can't be resurrected, so two sisters, don't just focus on crying. Now is not the time to blame anyone. Hurry up and sort out the things behind your brother-in-law's death, and then take care of yourself."
Raising your children to adulthood is the right thing to do!”
"After all, they are also the grandsons of the royal family!"

"Prince-in-law, you are so... stupid!"
In the flower room of Princess Nankang Mansion, the flowers blooming in pots are colorful and beautiful.
However, Mao Xiang was dressed in gray clothes like stagnant water, sitting with his legs crossed in the midst of this colorful scene.
It looked very incongruous and weird, and what he said was very unpleasant.
Hu Guan sat opposite him, his face flushed as if he was trying to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
"You haven't made any progress in such a long time? Tsk tsk tsk..." The cloth shoes on Mao Xiang's feet were hanging on his toes, rising and falling with the rhythm of his words.
Then, suddenly there was an indescribable smell that filled the air. The smell was like rancid old vinegar mixed with long-haired soybean paste, and then a piece of stinky tofu was mixed in, and then added
Strips of pig intestines with oil.
"When you play with others, can you also play with yourself? Ouch!" Mao Xiang continued, "You can do it! If others kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred, you will die together!"
Hu Guan was humiliated by the accusations and was scolded until he had nothing to say.
But the little self-respect he had in his heart still made him speak out, "The emperor also knows about this..."
"I know you're stupid!" Mao Xiang smiled and raised his eyebrows, but there was still half a sentence left unsaid, "Only stupid people are loyal!"
At this moment, he suddenly felt a little uneasy.
"Think about where such a stupid person could stand under the old man's hands back then? He might have died eight hundred times! But now, this prince knows that his subordinates are stupid, but he still wants to use them. Not only does he use them, but he also cooperates with them.
I even wiped his butt with the servants and took great pains to cover him up..."
"I dare not think so, Amitabha, it is so disrespectful and disrespectful!"
"Actually, this junior is in front of the emperor and has appeared too many times. This junior feels that if this continues, sooner or later someone will notice..." Hu Guan spoke a little garrulously, "That's why he came up with this last resort..."
"Stupid is just stupid, don't make excuses for yourself!" Mao Xiang continued to raise his toes, "You don't have to go to the emperor! There are so many messengers for you, so you have to open your mouth yourself? With our status, how can we not go to the emperor?
I don’t want to be around you, but you are lucky enough to work harder in the palace than at home!"
"This...junior!" Hu Guan lowered his head, his face burning.
"You put on a big show for a few small fish and shrimps, hey!" Mao Xiang sneered again, then put down his feet and held the armrests of the stool with both hands.
With two kicks, he came face to face with Hu Guan, so close that Hu Guan could see the leeks between his teeth.
"I came here today because I have other things to do!" Mao Xiang looked at Hu Guan, "I have gone home to provide for the elderly, and I came back specifically to tell you!"
"Please speak!" Hu Guan was nervous for a while and swallowed his saliva.
"Don't be afraid, it's a good thing!" Mao Xiang smiled softly.
But the more he said this, the more nervous Hu Guan became.
"What a good thing!" Mao Xiang said with a smile, "I'm asking you to lend me some money!"
"Huh?" Hu Guan was stunned, his eyes seemed to be frozen.
Are you kidding me?
You're asking me to borrow money. You're such a dignified secret agent. Your annual expenses come from the emperor's inner treasury without anyone verifying it. You're asking me to borrow money?
Besides, if you borrow money from me, do I know you very well?
"Not much!" Mao Xiang patted Hu Guan's hand and said with a smile, "Just 327,000 silver dollars!"
Suddenly, Hu Guan almost bit off his tongue.
This is not much, so what the hell is too much?
Besides, what are you borrowing money from me for?
I don't even know what you're going to do, so you just tell me the numbers?
"Senior..." Hu Guan muttered, "This..."
Mao Xiang seemed a little embarrassed, "What, are you in trouble?"
"Yes! You also know, junior, this..."
"If you have difficulties, you have to borrow. You have to borrow if you want, and you have to borrow if you don't want to. If you take the initiative to borrow, I still owe you a favor. If you don't do it unwillingly, I really won't give it to you!
"Mao Xiang said with a smile.
"I......"
Hu Guan was a little bit dumbfounded.
Since ancient times, have you ever seen someone so confident in borrowing money?
Are you borrowing or robbing?
Suddenly, Hu Guan's heart skipped a beat and he looked at Mao Xiang, "Senior, when you said borrow, could it be more appropriate to change the word borrow to ask for money?"
