Chapter 397: The filial and benevolent Lin Dalang
Chapter 397 The filial, benevolent Lin Dalang
At this juncture, it is not a good thing for Concubine Yue to have the intention of adopting a stepchild. It will undoubtedly make her and Lin Jinxiao both envied and hated.
From the eyes of these Qinghe dignitaries, we can already see the clues.
Whether Da Chen's words were pure flattery or ulterior motives, Chu Nanzhi deeply realized that her staying in this world would be a disaster, and sooner or later it would bring disaster to the whole family.
According to some of the history she is familiar with, multiple births were actually considered an ominous thing in ancient times, especially twins would be considered to have one child possessed by evil spirits.
Many dynasties, no matter whether it is the Tianjia or the folk, if such a thing happens, either only one will be left or they will choose to kill immediately, and the woman who gave birth will be punished.
The reason why the Dahe Empire can have auspicious meanings is because the probability of twins appearing in the land of Qinghe is extremely high. In order to preserve the twin dragon heirs born to the queen, the founding monarch forced the warlock Qin Tianjian to change his statement. Gradually reversed people's inherent concept.
After that, several generations of Mingjun appeared one after another, which created the prosperity and prosperity of the Dahe Empire, making people believe in it.
However, if Da Chen's words hit the emperor in the face, they would bring Lin Jinxiao endless disasters.
The omen of auspiciousness did not appear in the Tian family but in the head of the unpopular clan. This gave those people with ulterior motives a chance to make use of it.
And a concubine who has just been favored does not adopt a stepchild from the palaces of the princes in central Beijing, but thinks of adopting the son of a foreign prince who holds military power. Spreading the word will only attract more criticism.
Could it be that they wanted to make people suspect that members of the Ganglin clan in Luyan had colluded with Concubine Yue Gui and wanted to do something wrong?
In this case, let everyone hate her alone.
I thought Concubine Yue Gui would be jealous, but she never thought that she would directly reveal her feelings in front of everyone:
"My uncle's words won the heart of my palace. I am honored and favored by His Majesty, but I am extremely ashamed that I can't continue the dragon heirs for His Majesty. I am very happy to see the children of King Pingning's family today. I think His Majesty will see you. I also like it, if it can come true, as my uncle said, it will definitely make His Majesty Long Yan very happy."
"The dog's family is terrified that the noble concubine can lift up the slave, but this auspicious saying is not credible. Even if the previous emperors were able to promote the prosperity of the empire, it was nothing but the help of the previous emperors who governed the government with their careers and the courtiers. It is the result of the wholehearted efforts of the ruler and ministers."
Chu Nanzhi quickly took the conversation.
And these words also attracted everyone to nod in convincing.
She inspected everyone and smiled lightly: "The slave family and the humble husband are from the village. They were born in the village since they were young, and they don't know any auspicious omens. Instead, they have so many children at once, worrying about the family's livelihood, and eating for dinner. After worrying about the next meal, he toiled all day long for three meals a day,
I am not afraid of the empress making jokes with the nobles, the four little treasures have never even attended a private school, they are illiterate, neglected to discipline, and do not know the etiquette. Joy, but bring bad luck. "
The little treasures all looked bitter when they heard what their mother said about them.
Yue Guifei saw that these children were very well-behaved, they seemed to be ignorant of etiquette, they were clearly excuses.
But the word unlucky that Chu Nanzhi mentioned made her immediately vigilant.
I heard that this family was innocently involved in a tax and bank case a few months ago and almost brought disaster to the whole family, which makes people have to guard against it.
I'm afraid it really is the bad luck brought by twin children.
Chu Nanzhi silently glanced at the pensive Lin Jinxiao, then looked at the dull and silent Dongjin Wang Lin Jinmu, and said earnestly:
"Your Majesty's imperial grace is so great. I value my Luyan Gang Lin family so much. I am a clumsy husband who has been crowned king and given an official title, and the dog is favored by the imperial concubine and empress. The slave family and the imperial concubine still have the same village friendship. If it is not for worrying about giving Your Majesty and Nyonya It's bad luck, I really want to take this opportunity to cling to the imperial concubine and concubine to please her."
Hearing this, Concubine Yue Guifei already showed joy on her face, but Chu Nanzhi's words turned around quietly:
"It's just that the crown prince is not yet established. If the slave family only cares about their own selfishness and betrays His Majesty's trust in the humble husband, let alone the heart of the kings in Beijing, the slave family will be even more ashamed."
The meaningful words directly raised the mood in the hall, and almost everyone stared at Concubine Yue Gui with hatred.
This woman was originally supported by the queen mother and protector Tang Yao to fight against the queen. She never thought that her wings would be hardened now, and she wanted to cultivate power to participate in the party struggle.
Still with a foreign prince holding a heavy army.
On weekdays, she and Dongjin Wang Lin Jinmu flirt with each other, and Tang Ru and Tang Yuanxi's brothers and sisters just treat each other as vulnerable groups who share the same disease and sympathize with each other.
Tang Ru suppressed his anger, and persuaded him with kind words: "Prince Pingning has just been canonized, and the imperial concubine likes children, but if you want to adopt a stepchild, you still have to think twice. You can't trap your highness in injustice."
Ji Wanying also looked at Concubine Yue with gloomy eyes, and said in a cold voice: "What is the meaning of Concubine Yue's move, the Empress has never mentioned the matter of adoption for many years in the palace, so it's possible that the empress wanted to be pampered just after she became a concubine And proud?"
"The princess is serious."
Concubine Yue Guifei's complexion suddenly turned dark, extremely embarrassing.
"Yes, don't misunderstand the concubine and princess, the concubine just likes children."
Lin Jinmu chimed in with a smile on his face.
I thought Concubine Yue Gui wanted to support her wholeheartedly, but she never expected that she would change her mind after returning to her natal home, and she even wanted to cling to a prince from a foreign domain who had just been conferred.
Although this Lin Jinxiao gained some power thanks to the love of the Empress Dowager, Chang Yanjue, and Lin Jinshu's master and apprentice, he was still only a foreign prince, and he was not allowed to enter Beijing at will, and it was also used to check and balance the bandits in the east. I can't tell, where can I catch up with myself.
Although he is only a concubine prince, at least he has lived in Beijing for a long time, so he can have the opportunity to compete with the kings in Beijing.
Since Concubine Yue Gui has revealed her heart, he also wants to test whether Lin Jinxiao has a different heart.
Lin Jinmu slowly put down the wine bottle in his hand, parted his mouth slightly, looked at Lin Jinxiao with a smile, and said, "The virtuous disciples have flourishing heirs, and it is understandable to be favored by Concubine Yue. The words just now are really serious. We who are emperor uncles, No matter how bad the emperor's uncle is, he won't care about it with a child, but he doesn't know what he thinks of the concubine's proposal?"
Lin Jinxiao was still amazed by his wife's ability to stir up trouble. Hearing Dongjin Wang's question in a hurry, he immediately raised his head and looked at Chu Nanzhi in dismay.
He didn't understand that this brother Wang was trying to test whether he wanted to intervene in party disputes.
But can his mind be seen through so easily by him?
He glanced coldly at Da Chen, whose face was cloudy and uncertain, and said with a bitter smile:
"As the humble woman said, the noble concubine looks at the dog differently, and the younger brother is deeply terrified. Logically speaking, the younger brother should not refuse, but the crown prince has not yet been established. If the younger brother really only cares about his own vanity, even if the king is generous, he will not blame him. It's hard to guarantee that others won't feel jealous and jealous."
After finishing speaking, he couldn't help but look at Lin Jinmu again. Seeing that he was still in a state of breaking the casserole and asking the end, he was obviously not satisfied with his answer, so he had no choice but to say clearly:
"Brother Wang must have heard about my younger brother's life experience. He lost his father since he was a child, and he was raised by his stepmother. The stepmother, Mrs. Chen, is also the niece of the third uncle. The third uncle treats our mother and son as her own. There is so much love and care, my little brother is grateful,
This person's life is based on the word filial piety. Brother Wang doesn't know the nature of the younger brother, but Brother Cen An knows it very well. The younger brother has no ambitions. When he first came to Beijing to be a Lang official, he only hired a last-ranked county government official. When the petty official returned to his hometown, he hoped to be more filial to the old people.
Although I got His Majesty's will this time, I dare not live up to the emperor's favor, and will try my best to stabilize the situation in the east. As for other matters, I dare not make arbitrarily assertive decisions, and I still have to follow the wishes of the third uncle. The younger brother's affairs are still the third uncle's To be the master. "
"Filial piety, benevolence and righteousness are the duties of a person, and a good brother is worthy of the reputation of being a filial son and a virtuous grandson."
Lin Jinmu blinked deeply.
Back then, Lin Jinxiao was really surprised when he returned to his hometown. With his talent and learning, he could stay in Beijing as an official. No matter how bad he was, he could be assigned as a county magistrate in the lower county. I never thought that he would go back to his hometown and serve as a special police officer. Cao Shi, it turned out to be filial to the elderly.
Really admirable.
It's just that this old woman is really an eyesore, and she is too flattering to Concubine Yue Gui, and sooner or later she will endanger herself if she stays in this world.
