Chapter 40 Between Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law
The concubines in the palace naturally did not have to leave their seats, but when Wu Fujin wanted to come out, Concubine Yi glared at her and said unceremoniously: "Whose daughter-in-law are you?"
Wu Fujin did not dare to contradict her, so he lowered his head and stood behind his mother-in-law.
Outside the palace gate, Yuxi came with E Niang. When he saw the palace maids and eunuchs standing outside the palace gate, he knew that the six palaces of the east and west were almost there. After entering, the lower-ranking concubines saluted Concubine De, while she saluted the empresses and elders.
Please greet me.
"If Yonghe Palace is farther away, didn't Sister Rongfei also come here? Why did you come so late?" Concubine Yi was the first to attack, deliberately saying, "What errand did the Queen Mother tell me to delay you again?"
Concubine De looked back at her daughter-in-law and said with a smile: "This child came in in a hurry and bumped into the palace maid serving tea. He came here after changing his clothes. Sisters, take a look, the clothes I wore when I was young are now here.
It’ll be brighter for a while.”
Concubine Rong waved Yu Xi over, turned her around slowly, touched the fabric and said, "It's been a few years, you are really able to save things."
Concubine Yi also wanted to take a look, but Yuxi had already retreated to E Niang's side, so Concubine Yi would definitely look down upon her.
Concubine Hui didn't want to cause trouble for Concubine Yi. Even if she didn't like the choice of Ba Fujin, there was a happy event in her palace today, so she said: "After the eighth brother gets married, he will also move out. Brothers are more comfortable gathering outside.
You sisters-in-law, please help them, Concubine Hui has entrusted Eighth Prince to you."
Yuxi and Wufujin both claimed their title, but Concubine Yi quit again and sneered: "The eighth elder brother is under your knees, why don't you ask Dafujin to take care of his younger brother and his sister-in-law? What do you want from our children? By the way, what?
If Dafujin doesn't come to congratulate my mother-in-law, and Sister Rong, where is your family's Sanfujin?"
Concubine Rong drank tea alone and ignored Concubine Yi's instigation. Concubine Hui looked bad. There were so many concubines and nobles there. You must know that Concubine Rong and her daughter-in-law did not deal with each other. This was caused by Sanfujin's lack of filial piety.
Yes, and her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were at odds. She pushed Dafu Jin too hard, and even her own son protected her daughter-in-law and went against her. Everyone in the palace knew it.
Seeing that Concubine Hui was deflated, Concubine Yi was very proud, and then said with a smile: "I heard that the E Niang of Ba Fu Jin was granted the title of Princess Heshuo. What an amazing background. Sister Hui, in the future you will not be a good mother-in-law."
ah."
"you……"
"But it doesn't matter. Our eighth elder brother is filial. Eighth elder brother is more of an honest child. For so many years, the only son who has not made the emperor angry and punished is our eighth elder brother."
This is neither yin nor yang. It seems to be praising Concubine Hui for being able to teach children, but in fact it is still satirizing her. Her own son is not filial, but others are so good. In other words, her concubine Hui is neither virtuous nor kind, and the eighth prince is good.
What she carried in her mother's womb has nothing to do with her.
The atmosphere in the palace became more and more awkward. Concubine Rong couldn't help but wink at Concubine De. Yuxi looked on and inadvertently raised his head to see Wu Fujin behind Concubine Yi smiling bitterly at her, but he quickly averted his eyes for fear of shouting.
Mother-in-law found out.
This was not the first time that Yuxi had experienced something like this. Concubine Yi's temper was such that even in front of the Queen Mother, she would say whatever she wanted.
I heard that after the fourth princess's marriage was decided, she went to Ningshou Palace to ask for the dowry and canonization of her adopted daughter, which made the Queen Mother angry. It was Wen Xian who persuaded his grandmother afterwards, saying that the fourth sister was the same as her when she married, and Yi Fei Zuo
I just hope that my daughter will be prosperous, which is also the dignity of Emperor Ama and the Queen Mother.
Thinking of this, Yu Xi couldn't help but sigh. Yinzhen always said he was restraining Wen Xian for his nonsense, but in fact, he loved his sister more than anyone else. He knew that her sister was kind-hearted, could be friendly to her brothers and sisters, and cared for her elders.
"Your Majesty..." A palace maid came in, interrupting Yu Xi's thoughts. She cheered up and looked over with everyone.
Concubine Hui was already in a bad mood and asked calmly: "What's the matter?"
The palace maid reported: "Dafu Jin sent someone to send congratulatory gifts."
Concubine Yi chuckled: "She is the eldest daughter-in-law after all. Whose eldest daughter-in-law doesn't put on some airs? In ordinary people's homes, the eldest daughter-in-law has to be the head of the family."
Concubine Hui rolled her eyes at her, and was about to restrain her anger and speak, but the palace maid said: "Brother, please tell me separately, Dafu Jin is happy again."
"Are you happy?"
"Yes, it is said that Dafu Jin was going to the palace to express his congratulations, but before leaving the house, he suddenly vomited. The eldest brother hurriedly called the doctor, and he asked about his pulse."
Because of the arrival of a new life, the awkward and dull atmosphere in the palace suddenly became lively. The low-ranking concubines and nobles all congratulated Concubine Hui. Concubine Hui did not need to restrain her joy, it was all on her face, and she said happily: "I'm afraid it's the month.
It's still shallow, we are the elders and we have to protect it."
Speaking of the eldest brother, as the eldest son of the emperor, it is not an exaggeration to act proudly, but as he gained some military success, he began to boss around his younger brothers, which Yuxi couldn't stand.
.
But his love and care for his wife was even greater than that of Yinzhen, and Yu Xi admired her.
Take the happy event in front of you, for example. In fact, Dafujin has already given birth to four daughters for his eldest brother. Each of them is exquisite and cute. During the New Year, he goes to the palace to salute the Queen Mother and the Emperor. The big and small girl dolls hold hands, and they are well-behaved and polite.
, everyone likes it when they see her, and Yuxi also hugged her elder brother’s little princess.
But none of these granddaughters liked Concubine Hui. Even before the eldest granddaughter was born, Concubine Hui was anxious to hold the emperor's eldest grandson, so she actually deceived Dafujin into the palace and locked her in a side hall so that the old woman could teach her the ways of human relations.
It is said that Dafujin's painful screams could be heard outside the palace gate. In the end, the eldest brother broke in and rescued his wife.
From then on, Da Fujin rarely entered the palace. During banquets, the eldest brother always had countless reasons to protect his wife. Anyway, Concubine Hui could not leave the Forbidden City easily. He lived outside with his wife and did not interfere with each other.
Be at peace with each other.
Many years passed by, and Dafujin gave birth to four daughters one after another. For the sake of his future, the eldest brother must also be looking forward to a son. After all, the emperor's eldest grandson already exists in Yuqing Palace.
But even so, there is still no Fu Jin in the mansion, not even a concubine.
Now that Dafujin is pregnant again, even if she can never give birth to the emperor's eldest grandson, having a grandson is better than having no grandson. Concubine Hui is full of expectations, and she doesn't care about what Concubine Yi made just now.
Amidst the congratulations, Concubine Yi finally left without making a fuss. The concubines left one after another, and Yuxi followed E Niang out.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law originally planned to take a walk back to Quan Dang to stretch their bodies, but unexpectedly they turned to the palace road outside Yikun Palace and heard Concubine Yi standing in front of the palace gate scolding her daughter-in-law: "You asked your dowry to get pregnant first, you
I don't even know how to blush, and I don't expect anything from you. It's your ability to give me a grandson as soon as possible."
Yu Xi's heart skipped a beat, and she raised her eyes to look at E Niang. Concubine De smiled gently: "Let's turn around and go to Cining Palace to have a look. I wonder if someone will clean the fallen leaves there."
If he continues to move forward at this moment, he will definitely embarrass Wufujin. Yuxi himself feels uncomfortable, so it is better not to meet him. He is grateful to E Niang for being considerate of her thoughts and follows him to Cining Palace. This chapter has been completed!
