Chapter 37 Lang Family


Chapter 37 Lang Family

Although Emperor Yongjia didn't like the fact that vassals and princes interacted with powerful ministers, he had a different attitude towards the sons he liked. For example, the Crown Princess came from a scholarly family. Although she was noble, she had no real power in the family. As for the marriage between the third prince and Feng Jiahe, Emperor Yongjia was happy to see it happen.

Lang Zhizhou was self-aware. With his official position, it would be wishful thinking for his daughter to be the main concubine of a certain prince, but side concubines could compete, such as the third prince's side concubine.

Of course, if you can be a concubine for other princes, it will be a high achievement for the current Lang family. However, Lang Zhizhou does not think so. The prince's in-law family sounds good, but in fact it puts the entire family on the razor's edge. Once it is on the wrong side, If the team bets on the wrong money, the family will be destroyed.

Except for the prince who was not favored by the Holy Spirit, among all the other princes, the third prince was the most likely to inherit the throne.

We can't blame Lang Zhizhou for having such thoughts. After all, since the founding of the Yong Dynasty, there have been nine people who have been crown princes but failed to succeed to the throne alive!

Those who were admired after death such as Emperor Xiaokang were already phoenixes. Among these nine people, some were given poisonous wine, some went crazy after being deposed, some were assassinated, and some were imprisoned until death.

Therefore, not only did Lang Zhizhou think so, there were also many people in the court who had this idea. Although the prince was the prince, he might not be the one who sat on that chair in the end.

Among the many princes, the third prince has the greatest chance of winning.

Lang Zhizhou and Mrs. Lang are also optimistic about the third prince's backyard. As long as they can send Lang Yuyu in, even if she is just a concubine now, with her beauty, she will definitely be favored by the third prince. In the future, the third prince will be honored as a great treasure, even if Lang Yuyu becomes a concubine Even if she is not a noble concubine, she still has a place among the four concubines.

As for the Feng family, rather than benefiting others, the position of concubine is better given to one of their own. Lang Yuyu's entry into the family will also be a help to Feng Jiahe.

But Lang Yuyu's biggest advantage is her beauty, and her biggest disadvantage also comes from her beauty.

After all, Hancheng is a small place. The most beautiful woman in Hancheng is nothing in the aristocratic circle of the capital. A plaque dropped in the capital can kill three third-rank officials. Lang Yuyu, who was born in a family of a fifth-rank official, is in the capital. In the eyes of ladies, she is a country girl.

A country girl but as beautiful as a flower, this is the beginning of misfortune.

Therefore, when they learned that Princess Jiayi was passing through Hancheng, Lang Zhizhou and Mrs. Lang's eyes lit up.

Princess Jiayi has just experienced the pain of losing her son, and she must be in a bad mood now. If Lang Yuyu can show her face in front of Princess Jiayi, make the princess happy, and get a few words of praise, then one day Lang Yuyu will come to Beijing. Then there is a reason to see the eldest princess. As long as she comes in and out of the eldest princess's mansion once or twice, she will have a good reputation in the capital.

Mrs. Lang has already inquired about it. Along the way, many gifts were given to Princess Jiayi, including many rare treasures. However, the Princess only accepted a puppy and confiscated all other gifts.

What does this mean? It means that the eldest princess lacks nothing but people or objects that can make her happy.

Mrs. Lang worked hard on Lang Yuyu. Lang Yuyu was good at singing and dancing, and she was also eloquent. She could even make a dead person live.

Mrs. Lang firmly believed that Lang Yuyu would please the princess better than that little white dog.

Princess Jiayi was no ordinary princess, she was the direct princess of the former Empress Dowager, who only gave birth to two children, Emperor Xiaokang and Princess Jiayi.

Moreover, the Supreme Emperor is still alive.

If we were to say who was the woman with the highest status in the capital, besides the empress, it was the eldest princess. After all, Emperor Yongjia's biological mother is now only a concubine, not even a queen mother. There are only five people in the harem who have the title of concubine, but Concubine Li's ranking is still behind the other four.

Therefore, she had to be cautious when giving orders in the harem. Although her son became the emperor, there was still the Supreme Emperor above him. Although the Supreme Emperor lived in the Longevity Palace, as long as he had not ascended to the throne, Emperor Yongjia could not surpass his father's title. His biological mother is the queen.

Facts have proved that Emperor Yongjia also doted on this royal sister. A few years ago, Princess Jiayi beat a vixen in the street, which caused a lot of commotion and the royal family lost face. However, Emperor Yongjia did not dislike her because of this. On the contrary, She loved her legitimate son very much, but it was a pity that the child was not blessed and died at a young age.

Lang Zhizhou and Mrs. Lang made all kinds of calculations and thoughts, but they did not expect that the eldest princess would change the route and pass through Hancheng without entering. They were shocked and angry.

Lang Zhizhou looked gloomy. Could it be that the news leaked from his side and the eldest princess deliberately avoided it?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. After all, the eldest princess and his wife did not go directly to Liangdi. Instead, they traveled all the way and made a big circle. They did not take this road, so they did not pass by Hancheng. She has never even met anyone from the Lang family, so how can she talk about likes and dislikes?

So he thought about it, and there was only one reason, that is, the eldest princess already knew his plan.

With a sullen face, he said to Mrs. Lang: "Have you told anyone about this?"

Mrs. Lang shook her head quickly, but her twinkling eyes had given her away after being married for many years.

Lang Zhizhou shouted angrily: "Who did you tell this to?"

When Mrs. Lang saw him yelling at her, she also lost her temper: "With whom? Who else could it be? It's not your mother, our old lady! If she hadn't said it so unpleasantly, I wouldn't have killed our mother in a fit of anger. I’m going to say it. Instead of blaming me, you should take care of your mother’s mouth!”

Lang Zhizhou closed his eyes. Lang's father was from a poor family when he was young. He was admitted to the Tongsheng Examination on an empty stomach. Only then did he attract attention. Li Zheng paid for him to study and was admitted to the Juren Examination. In exchange, he married Li Zheng’s daughter is his wife.

Lang's father later became a Jinshi and kept his promise, never taking a concubine until his death.

It's a pity that Lang's father came from a low background and had no one to guide him. He died in depression. He was only thirty-five years old when he died. He was only a county magistrate until his death.

Fortunately, in the last two years of his life, he finally came to his senses and analyzed the detours he had taken over the years one by one, so that his son would not follow his old path again.

Therefore, Mrs. Lang threatened to die, and Lang Zhizhou did not marry his uncle's cousin. Instead, he married Mrs. Lang, who was an official. Although Mrs. Lang's natal family did not have a high official position, she had followed her father in office since she was a child. The connections cannot be compared to Mrs. Lang’s niece.

Moreover, Mrs. Lang's father and Feng Ke were classmates. Lang Zhizhou was able to catch up with the Feng family because he was following the path of his father-in-law.

But it is precisely for this reason that Mrs. Lang has always disliked Mrs. Lang, and she also dislikes Lang Yuyu.

Lang Yuyusheng's beauty was like a charmer in the eyes of Mrs. Lang. When Lang Yuyu practiced piano and dance, Mrs. Lang said that this was the style of the Yao Sister. In short, Lang Zhizhou had a headache when he thought of Mrs. Lang.

Not to be disrespectful, the Lang family is at least a third-line character in this book, if not a front-line character. Well, everyone with a name is a character, such as Lang Yuyu.
