Chapter 401 Changes in the Situation

Madam Qing said she was worried that the concubine in the palace would blame her for the blame. Su Yiqing never worried. When she was pregnant, she would obviously not be able to send two palace maids to her. Even if she offered these two palace maids as Bodhisattvas, Concubine Yang would not be satisfied. If she really wanted to make it impossible, she would have to arrange these two palace maids to sleep with her. After that, she would be able to get pregnant and give birth to a child safely. Then she would be granted the concubines and treat them like her own sisters, treating the child as her biological child, and even giving in to them. As long as one of the steps is deviated, all the previous efforts will be wasted.

Just like many women, who could have insisted on not letting their husbands take concubines, but for the sake of a virtuous reputation or the faces of their husbands and mother-in-law, they took a step back and helped take concubines. After having concubines, there are still a series of problems. Unless one of them has a physical problem, they will have to give birth to a child and have to help raise them. Their own sons can't be raised. How can they worry? Life is getting harder day by day. How many women can they accommodate in the small backyard? So the struggle continues, and people become hysterical day by day, and in the end they become yellow-faced women and jealous women that their husbands hate.

This was when I was in Yuanping Bo’s Mansion. Maybe I was reminded by her over and over again, saying that if a man really didn’t like her, it would be the same whether he helped or not. If he really took concubines, he would have to make a second step. If he made a step forward, he would not have a peaceful life. Instead of doing this, it would be better to stick to the end from the beginning and love it so much.

Even if a woman is married with a high level, it does not mean that she is inferior. If the other party is willing to marry you, it means that you have something to do. Don’t be afraid of being rejected and be cautious and timid, so that people will only think you are easy to bully.

These principles are applicable in the back house, but also in other places. Concubine Yang really dislikes her. If she wants to find an opportunity, she has opportunities. One or two palace maids will not affect the overall situation at all.

As Su Yiqing's instructions, Madam Qing wanted to find a good candidate for Yue'e. It was not so easy to find a good candidate for a while, nor could she find a bad candidate, and she would let the princess down. However, people with good conditions would rather have a little maid than a palace maid who came from this palace and didn't know the details.

Just when Madam Qing was anxious, Yue'e found a good candidate herself.

The younger brother of Hua Muchunsao in the garden is a guard in the mansion, and he has no father or mother. This year, he is a little dark and tall. His face is not handsome, not ugly, his martial arts skills are mediocre, and he has no wealth. The only thing is that he has been a guard for two years. The only advantage of ordinary people is that he is honest and honest. He is very strong.

Several times before, Mrs. Chun had been asking her mother to help find a wife for her younger brother, but her brother's conditions were not good or bad. It was difficult to choose whether to go up or down.

After hearing people's comments about Yue'e, Chunsao felt that this girl was quite suitable for her younger brother. Didn't she just want to marry? I guess such a girl also wanted to marry a strong man instead of those scholars who looked weaker than girls. Her younger brother was just right.

Look at Yue'e again. She looks good and works quickly. She is not the kind of maid who can only enjoy herself. Apart from the saying that she is crazy about men in the mansion, she has no shortcomings. Of course, if she does not have this little bad reputation, she will break the threshold by relying on talent to ask for marriage.

After thinking about it, Chunsao asked in a tentative manner. Yue'e asked Madam Qing again. After getting the permission letter from the princess, the two sides met shyly again, and the marriage happened naturally.

According to the etiquette of the maids such as Marry Yuemian Liu'er before, he gave Yue'e a dowry and set two tables of wine. Just then, Yue'e changed from a girl to a wife. It was difficult for the new wife to arrange errands, so Yue'e helped Chunsao sort out flowers and trees first.

...

Not long after, two things came for Su Yiqing, one of which was good news and the other was big bad news.

One thing is that there is a new beauty favored, and Concubine Yang gradually lost her holy heart. But when the house was leaking, her younger brother, the husband of County Lord Xiuwen, had some reason to get a strange disease and was bedridden. Several imperial physicians were hired but could not diagnose the cause.

The other thing is that the situation at the border is somewhat unknown, and Lian Yufeng is about to rush to guard the border.

As her body became heavier, her support had to leave at this time, leaving her alone in this sinister Yancheng, and become the target of struggle between various forces.

But there is nothing we can do about this. In the face of national crisis, personal interests are always at the end.

According to the current situation, it is inevitable to start a war, but the scale and size of the war are different. Foresighted merchants are hoarding goods and preparing to make money from the national crisis.

Princess Xiangshan came again recently, saying that the merchants of the Meng clan in the Great Zhou were frequently attacked and suffered heavy losses. The Meng clan was very dissatisfied.

Su Yiqing had no statement on this, either perfunctory or changed the subject. She knew that Princess Xiangshan meant that she hoped that Prince Ding, who had heavy troops, could interfere.

Although bandits and stings have always been endless, the intensity of the government's attack can help them restrain themselves. For example, thieves do not easily attack the official team, and they dare not make the decision to attack the official silver, because attacking the official team is equivalent to treason, and treason has always been the top priority of all charges and implicated the nine tribes.

The robbery team did not receive more silver than the robbery merchants, but the risk was greatly increased. There was no fool willing to do it, after all, these bandits were just seeking money.

If the government attaches importance to the merchants of the Meng clan and there are a few people who have the idea of ​​them, and the government immediately sends heavy troops to encircle and suppress them, then these bandits will be more restrained. On the contrary, the bandits will become more arrogant. After all, it is not nice to say it when robbing the people of the country. However, robbing foreign tribes, especially the Meng clans, caused public anger in the Great Zhou Dynasty, robbing them is equivalent to practicing the law for heaven. Just like robbing corrupt officials, they can gain a good statement in the Green Forest.

Princess Xiangshan felt very wronged. Most of these robbed merchants were regular businessmen, and those who did not abide by the rules had cleared their strong guards and escorts. Now this has simply hit the enthusiasm of the merchants of the fierce clan.

Apart from false comfort without actual effect, Su Yiqing had nothing to say. No matter whether Princess Xiangshan begs or pressures, she just covered her stomach and pondered.

After that, the nanny around him spoke for the master, saying that their princess was still pregnant. How could he hear this? I would like to say less to the princess. It is hard for the women in the inner house to interfere in the matter outside, let alone the woman with a big belly about to give birth.

Princess Xiangshan could only return in disappointment.

Su Yiqing shook her head secretly. Princess Xiangshan is also a capable woman. She is versatile, but now there are too many smart people in this world, and many things are the trend. It is difficult to turn the world with a woman.

The Meng tribe kept making small moves. First, he used the marriage between Princess Yushan and Zhao Boyang to force the Zhou Dynasty to express his war. Later, the marriage failed and he wanted to promise Princess Yushan to the side room of the other force of Dajing, King Qi. One woman married more, and he was delayed. As a result, Princess Yushan was not betrothed out. This matter became a joke in the blink of an eye.

Many court officials who had no good feelings for the Feng Clan took the eye on the emperor and slandered the Feng Clan, saying that they were just strong outside and fugitives, and the barbarians were even more unfaithful and had no benefit in making friends with the Feng Clan. Look at the mutual benefits before, the Feng Clan took a huge advantage in their Great Zhou.

In goods trading, the Meng tribe obtained food to survive the cold winter, cotton to keep warm, and even iron tools to cast agricultural tools, etc. These are all life-threatening materials. What did the Dazhou get? It was just a few beautiful clothes on the woman's body, and even the bird feathers that were difficult to preserve were hyped up by the Meng tribe and turned into luxury goods. The gold and silver of the Dazhou were earned away by the Meng tribe.

That's fine, but most of the communications are the same. However, the Meng tribe opened a casino, placed stamps of money, and even opened brothels to force good men to become prostitutes, which greatly affected the lives of the people of Dazhou. The impact was extremely bad and it was really unbearable. When negotiating with the Meng tribe, their officials said that this was the personal behavior of the merchants. If there was real evidence, the Zhou could be punished as a crime? The Meng tribe pleaded for mercy.

This is the responsibility of selling. Who doesn’t know that these things must be colluded with the officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty to accomplish things. How easy is it to find evidence to pull out the radish and bring out the mud?

Well, since your Feng Clan is responsible for selling, Da Zhou will not care about it. Your businessmen do these things. The Feng Clan officials say it is a personal behavior, and the robbers of the Zhou Dynasty robbed them is even more personal. If your Feng Clan catches people, you can also be punished as a crime based on evidence. As long as the evidence is conclusive, Da Zhou will not interfere.

Neither side has the sincerity to solve the problem, what else can I do?

I can only let the situation go to a place that is not conducive to harmony.

Princess Xiangshan hopes that Lian Yufeng can interfere in this matter. After all, Lian Yufeng clearly stated that he was not in charge of the war, but obviously Lian Yufeng had other plans and wanted to leave his wife's diplomacy, starting with this Princess Ding, but he was pregnant, so he was inconvenient to listen to too many difficulties, and he could not even disturb him over and over again.

The situation is getting weirder.

Su Yiqing doesn't want to care too much, so she calms down and takes care of her baby.

Midway through, Mrs. Meng came and Meng Yan wrote a letter to her family, saying that Mr. Quan San had found the Zhou family's hometown, which caused a lot of trouble to the Zhou family.

The Zhou family's already complicated interpersonal relationships are likely to be broken.

Meng Yan couldn't stand it, and wrote a letter to solve all this.

The so-called solution is to find a way to get the Quan family to voluntarily withdraw from the marriage, because the Zhou family has a scholarly family and cannot actively regret the marriage and betrayal.

What Mrs. Meng means, if it is assisted by Ding Wang Mansion, things may be easier.

After Su Yiqing and Madam Meng finished speaking, she showed signs of fatigue and said that she had to think about it and let Madam Qing take Madam Meng out.

Madam Qing sent Mrs. Meng to the door and advised: "Madam, the princess is getting heavier and heavier recently. The princess is really upset. She is really upset about the Zhou family. Let's talk about the matter in the future. Anyway, she doesn't need to marry within half a year."

"I heard from the old master Quan San's family that I hope I can marry soon." Mrs. Meng also felt that this seemed bad, but she had no choice.

My daughter wrote a letter to ask for help. She thought that it would be easy for Meng Ye to find an excuse to warn the Quan family. She didn't want Meng Ye to refuse, saying that he had not sat firmly on his official post and could not do so much. She had nothing to say for her daughter. If she wanted to say for her daughter's sister-in-law, she would be spared.

In a word, I don’t want to waste too much resources on the Zhou family anymore, especially when the Zhou family has not shown any help to him at the moment. At the beginning, even Yufeng and Mrs. Meng were persuading him, how much help can the Zhou family provide? Now, apart from a lot of trouble, I really don’t see any help.

If the Zhou family cannot even get a dilapidated house like the old master Quan San, what else can he expect from the Zhou family? However, several colleagues and subordinates are familiar with each other. I heard that he has several concubines, granddaughters and great-granddaughters who are in the palace, and he is quite interested in seeing if he can get married.

If he really wants to marry, he will have many civil servants and in-laws. These people can help him now. If he really needs marriage to consolidate his strength, he cannot rely on the Zhou family alone.

After a few points of experience in the officialdom, Meng has become much more slick. Then he may have figured out some things and felt that Mrs. Meng is not dealing with some private matters for him, and only takes action when it is related to the whole family. There is no need to give in to Mrs. Meng anymore. After he practices his mouth slowly, Mrs. Meng can even respond with a few words.

Anyway, their family is like this, and they have torn their faces apart, but they still have children and children tied together, and they can't get rid of them. Since you don't respect me, I don't need to give in to you. Whoever is right in big matters will listen to whoever is right? If it doesn't work, there is a prince and son-in-law who is pressing on them. For other trivial matters, it depends on whoever has the upper hand.

After all, Mrs. Meng is a woman after all, she is worried about her a lot, and she is not as free and easy as Meng. Besides, she only has two or one daughter, but Meng is already full of children and grandchildren. She doesn't like to throw her away and ignore her too much.

After hearing what Madam Qing said, she returned to the mansion.

Meng Ye was sitting in the hall waiting. When he saw her coming back, he immediately said sarcastically: "Have you gone to Dingwang Mansion?"

Mrs. Meng replied angrily: "So what?"

"It's not like that. I just remind you a few words, don't be confused by the authorities." Meng also raised his eyebrows and acted like a bitter look. "Fu'er is my biological daughter. If you don't have a relationship with me, you must not have much friendship with you. If you think you are a polite mother, you should be content. Don't make trouble for nothing. If you are troubled by a little bit of trivial matters, you will not feel sorry for yourself. You should also think about it. If you really make someone tired, your backer will be gone. It's not good for others."
