Chapter 66 Revealing the truth
"What are you talking about!" Madam looked sideways at the Prime Minister, her voice rising unconsciously.
The prime minister frowned, looked at his wife, and said in a deep voice: "I am talking to Concubine Shu, please don't interrupt."
Concubine Shu looked at this usual way of getting along, and she couldn't help but feel depressed.
The family and the eccentric father that she once thought she had escaped from have now become a cage trapping her. When they appear again, they can still drag her into the abyss, unable to escape or hide.
[Grandpa is obviously a good person, how did he become like this? 】
The prime minister in the storybook is a good man who cares about his wife, children, and children. Even though he was wronged by Emperor Qingling and his family was exterminated, all he thinks about is Concubine Shu and the granddaughter he has never met.
Is the Prime Minister's character actually like this?
Doting on concubines and destroying wives, turning concubines upside down, and even expecting concubines to help a concubine in the palace?
Concubine Shu was called back by Ying'an's inner voice.
Things that are unattainable in youth will eventually pass away.
What I once longed for is no longer important now.
From now on, she only lives for herself and Ying'an.
"Father, my concubine is not good-looking, and she has no talents to serve in the palace. She cannot survive in the palace."
The prime minister was stunned when he heard this.
Why does he feel that Yao He seems to have changed a lot in the past few years since he entered the palace.
Yao He always agreed to what he said before, because in her heart, nothing is more important than the honor and disgrace of the family.
Even though she was upset, she would still comply for the sake of the overall situation.
Why now...
Not only him, but also the wife looked at her daughter in confusion. Although she was surprised by her daughter's change, the approval in her eyes was so full that it almost overflowed.
The Prime Minister lowered his eyes, coughed dryly and said: "Yes, you have been the legitimate daughter of the family since you were a child. Your concubine can't get all the resources of the family compared to you. She has always envied you and always complained to me. From the cracks in your fingers The leaked resources are enough for her to walk sideways in Beijing. She is pitiful. Now our family She is shameless in the capital, and she has reached the age where she wants to discuss marriage. Aunt Lian said that although Yaoxiang has no talents, she can get along well in the palace with you as the concubine's sister-in-law. I hope you can help her. Line, she said she would treat your mother well from now on at home.”
Concubine Shu picked up the teacup at hand and brought it to her lips, swallowed it nonchalantly, and said lightly: "Father, even though there are prominent people in the capital, there is no reason why the mistress should treat her well as a concubine. Where does she have the face? ”
The Prime Minister frowned.
The lady wiped away tears.
When my daughter grows up, she realizes that she feels sorry for her mother.
The Prime Minister's voice was calm: "Shu Guifei, you are now a noble concubine. I can't say anything about you, but since ancient times, filial piety has been the first thing to do. Is this your attitude towards your father?"
Concubine Shu put down the teacup heavily and said in a horrifyingly cold voice: "The Prime Minister also knows that I am a concubine, so it is difficult for you to open this mouth. In this way, I can help the Prime Minister find a good marriage for my concubine in the capital, but after entering Palace, don’t even think about it!”
At home, her concubine has been competing with her openly and secretly.
Even one year, he tried every means to enter the palace in the hope of meeting the emperor. If the emperor hadn't been so pleased with her at the beginning, and his eyes were full of her, and he didn't even notice the concubine who tried his best to show off, he might have been plotting to frame her in the palace now. , and also as a concubine.
Once upon a time, she had to endure for the sake of her family.
But now, she has Ying'an.
With her concubine's ruthlessness, she really didn't dare think about what Ying'an would suffer if she entered the palace.
I'm afraid that she will use her name as a noble concubine to secretly collude with many people with evil intentions, and do everything possible to kill herself and Ying'an!
She's not stupid enough to hurt Ying'an for unworthy people and unworthy things!
Everyone who tries to harm Ying'an deserves death! The Prime Minister was obviously displeased.
"Don't talk about the capital, just ask around the world, who else has a more noble status than the emperor! I see, you are the sect that forgot to hold you up on the altar after ascending to heaven!"
His voice was low.
No one else could hear it except the family of four sitting here.
After all, this is the palace, and he is not stupid enough to seek death.
Concubine Shu raised her eyebrows lightly, looked at him sideways, and said in a very soft voice: "Am I ungrateful, or is it that the Prime Minister can only share the hardships but not the joys? The family is in decline, so you want to save my life and the blood of the Prime Minister's House. The family is well and I am well, so you think about Aunt Lian and your concubine. Have you ever thought about mother and me? You praise Aunt Lian as high as the sky, but have you ever thought that she would give me the gift of my mother? Judging by your expression, have you ever thought that my mother would be laughed at by people in the capital? To be honest, you only love yourself and the clan. Even Aunt Lian, you don’t take it seriously. She is the icing on the cake for you. A beautiful woman, but father, you are not the icing on the cake for me, you are holding me back. My daughter needs you, give me a reason to help you.”
This series of words made the Prime Minister extremely ashamed.
An old face turned red like a doll in a New Year painting.
He frowned and looked directly at Concubine Shu.
His unyielding eyes made his heart tremble.
In the past, Concubine Shu was submissive and always looked like she was being rubbed and crushed. How could she be so aggressive and clear-cut now?
He doesn't speak.
Concubine Shu also lowered her eyes and said nothing.
It was Madam who broke the silence first.
"Your Majesty, we have been here for so long, it is time to leave."
She held Ying'an in her arms and whispered the lullaby that Concubine Shu had sung to her when she was a child.
This scene stung Concubine Shu's eyes.
The mother who once coaxed her was now holding her daughter in her arms and singing a lullaby.
She raised her eyes to look at the Prime Minister, the disappointment in her eyes was too obvious.
"In addition to asking me about my concubine's entry into the palace, does my father have anything else to say to me?"
Father and daughter finally reunited, and his words like this were undoubtedly a knife in her heart.
The Prime Minister's face was cold and he wanted to get up and leave, but the matter involved the Prime Minister's Mansion, so he could only say what he had planned to keep silent.
"Foshan Temple and Prince Heng's Mansion must be connected, but we haven't opened the door yet. I will send someone to tell you when I find clues. But as far as I know, the emperor is also investigating this matter, and he has already discovered it. I am also investigating. If he blames the former harem for being involved, the matter may not go well.”
In the past dynasties, the harems of the previous dynasties were independent. The emperors were suspicious, and they were most taboo about the person next to them usurping their throne.
There were many princes, and anyone who supported him would be able to secure the position of Queen Mother.
This is a capital crime.
Concubine Shu lowered her eyes and said in a deep voice: "I saved the emperor. Not only will he not blame him, he might even send someone to investigate the matter thoroughly with the Prime Minister's Mansion. Prince Heng has moved the Emperor. It is Prince Heng's Mansion that should be worried, not the Prime Minister's Mansion." .”
The Prime Minister nodded: "That's good. It won't hinder the Prime Minister's house. I will do anything to help you fly high. Please also ask Concubine Shu not to forget her mother's family."
