Chapter 412 Consort Maou

Mr. and Mrs. Jian Xubai had no opinion, so the third house stayed in the ancestral home after the New Year, and after the 15th day of the first month, they also left the big house and the clansmen, and moved to the city of Liao-Zhou.

They left with more reason, because Jane Li Miao is sick – Jane Li Miao was not very good health, in the imperial capital when the long years of medication, this time the long distance back, followed by the loss of father and brother, and live in the grave for a few days, it is logical that the disease to be carried back to the ancestral home to save the treatment, in this case, of course, can not continue to keep the hut.

Then one is afraid of disturbing the big house by boiling the medicine in the ancestral house, and the second is that the ancestral house is just a town in the end, and it is inconvenient to purchase a lot of things, so that’s why I have to take my leave to go to the city.

The big house retained once, see the third house to go resolutely, also will not stop.

Before the third house left, they sent things to the big house and all the families in the clan, so when they left, many clansmen came to help, and kissed them almost all the way to the city gates before they stayed.

After bidding farewell to the clan, they party entered the city.

Duanmu old lady to Jane Li Miao’s mansion before and after four, but also with a two acres of large garden, over the years has been someone sprinkled repair, so the preservation is very complete.

Although there is nothing green in the court in this season, among the jade piles of branches, vermilion lacquer carved railings, jasper tiles, only a glimpse, but also enough to show the extraordinary.

Walked into the house, but see a water of iron pear wood furniture, mica screen glazed couch, table vase also inserted a newly cut plum daffodil, making the entire interior is dense with fragrance.

“Finally a little look!” After taking his seat at the top, Jian Li Miao waved his hand for his juniors to sit down and talk, surveyed the surroundings, but was still not very satisfied, and reluctantly said, “At any rate, we’ll just live here until the second half of this year, so let’s just get on with it!”

Song Yixiao sniffing quite speechless, in her opinion this place many furnishings, already not worse than the Duke of Yan’s residence, the new father-in-law, but also said “will be” – it seems that the reason why the father-in-law proposed to move out of the ancestral home, presumably also feel that the life of the ancestral home is too bitter, and It seems that the reason why this father-in-law proposed to move out of the ancestral home was probably because he felt that the life in the ancestral home was too miserable, and he was too embarrassed to improve it in front of the big house, so he could only move to the city.

With a new move, there are certainly a lot of things, big and small.

And these things Jane Li Miao father and son are not able to help – because the local officials lined up to visit the “sick” Jane Li Miao.

Jian Li Miao and Jian Xubaibai are very impatient with this kind of entertainment, and they don’t really need to give face to these people in their capacity. But after the first refusal, the clan came and asked them to think about the clan: after the father and son finish their mourning, they will return to the court with their families, but the rest of the Jian family still have to live here!

What if the parental officials hold a grudge against the Janes?

Father and son conferred and decided to give the clan a face. In this way, it has been perfunctory until the end of spring and the beginning of summer, even if Liaocheng such a bitterly cold place, are changed into spring clothes, the visitors only scarce.

No one home to disturb, Jane Li Miao but came to the pleasure, almost every other day will go out to play – he does not mind the trouble, every time to bring the two children, this day fishing tomorrow hiking, Song Yixiao during the day can not see the children’s silhouette. Song Yixiao can’t even see the children during the day.

And at this time the two couples are still in mourning, nothing is not good to together, Liaozhou this place she can be said to be unfamiliar, although the clan are a little flattered by the meaning of the three houses, in the end, experience different status, difficult to really say to a piece.

That’s why Song Yixiao began to miss the imperial capital, at least there were still Yuan Xuexiu, Jiang Muzhe and other bosom friends to come and go.

Not so much as having nothing to do all day like we do now.

I did not think so depressed for a few days, but the imperial capital really came to the letter.

The letter was written by none other than Yuan Xuexie, and apart from greetings, it was mainly a good news report, for Yuan Xuexie, who had been out of the court for a few years as well, was finally pregnant.

Song Yixiao was of course very happy to see this news, and when she had not finished reading the letter, she called out to Bell to ask her to go and arrange a congratulatory gift.

But after admonishing the bell, she continued to read on, only to find that Yuan Xuexian had also said not-so-good news: something had happened to the crown prince!

The prince was riding a horse when the accident, so the guards rescue timely, did not cause a major disaster, just fell and broke a leg, after the Imperial Doctor diagnosis and treatment, said that there should not be any major problems after the connection – after all, the prince is still young, only eleven years old, the bones can continue to grow.

The problem is that the person who plotted against the Crown Prince was Consort Mao.

Consort Mao was first appointed as concubine Mao, and her promotion to consort status was last year when she returned to the court from her summer vacation at Cuihua Mountain, because her son died – yes, this is the biological mother of Emperor Duanhua’s second son.

The reason she plotted against the crown prince is of course because she was not willing, originally she was in the East Palace to the crown prince as a concubine is not very favored, after the promotion of concubines is also to do most of the decoration. But because there is a son, Empress Wei also did not in the portion of the regulations harshly over her, so it is also peaceful and self-satisfied life.

As a result, last year Cuihua Mountain was plagued by smallpox and the second prince was lost!

How could she be happy when her birth mother was made a consort?

After all, the rules of this dynasty, childless concubines, in addition to a very few cases such as Fu Tai Fei, once the emperor’s death, to go to the palace to wait for death – Mao Fei has been several years did not serve the Duanhua emperor, basically no possibility of having children again!

Then that meant that even if Emperor Duanhua was still alive right now, she was just a widow waiting to die.

How could Princess Mao not hate it in her heart?

She hated the most of course is to make smallpox people, but the Lu family has been destroyed; the second hate is Jane false white father and daughter, after all, we all think that the reason why the second prince got smallpox, is Jane false white from the daughter of the smallpox after the transmission of the smallpox brought into the palace, young and weak second prince, so the trick.

But Princess Mao is just an unpopular palace consort, even if she resents Jian Xubai’s father and daughter, her hand can’t reach out to the former dynasty to reach out to the State Duke’s Office. Especially now that the whole family is in Liaozhou, not even in the imperial capital.

So Consort Mao finally turned the tables on the Crown Prince – my son is dead, what makes the Empress’ son still alive?

She didn’t necessarily not realize that it didn’t make sense to relent like that, but desperate people would do anything.

In fact, after the revelation of what Princess Mao had done, Empress Wei and the Crown Prince both pleaded for her, asking Emperor Duanhua to take into account the pain of her son’s death and to be lenient with her. And Duanhua Emperor in a rage, but also to her to the last class of beauty – but she still chose to touch the pillar of self. But she still chose to touch the pillar and kill herself.

The tragedy had come to an end in the Imperial Capital, and the Empress finally decided to bury Consort Mao with consort rites, forgiving her for her momentary confusion.

But things don’t end here.

Yuan Xuexie told her friend in a letter, “Now many people are behind the scenes to send Jane Xiu Huang and Qing Yue’s not, saying that if it is not Jane Xiu Huang dyed smallpox and did not know it, and went in and out of the palace exams as usual, the second prince would not have been fine at all; Consort Mao has her son to count on as a son, and even if she is not favored, she will not think of plotting to harm the prince; so that the crown prince will not fall and break his leg; Consort Mao does not have to self . end–the royal family will still be a harmonious one.”

Of course, she also consoled, “the emperor and queen for such rumors are very angry, personally urged the Beijing Zhaobu thorough investigation in the end, is very sentenced some people. The Empress Dowager and the Grand Princess of Jin is also the same attitude, clear-eyed people know that this is not Jane Xiu Huang father and daughter of the fault.”

But Song Yixiao knows that things will not be so simple, not to mention that preventing the people’s mouth is even more important than preventing the Sichuan River, let alone the Duanhua Emperor and his wife, may not not have similar ideas in their hearts.

In the end, the second prince is Emperor Duanhua’s own flesh and blood; this time the suffering crown prince, is also Empress Wei’s only child!

If we were in a different place, it would be hard for Song Yixiao not to be angry.

Even though everyone knew that Jane Void White definitely didn’t do it on purpose.

But an unintentional mistake is just as much a mistake, especially when it has irreversible consequences, and whether it was intentional or unintentional sometimes doesn’t really matter – because the damage has already been done.

When Song Yixiao put down the letter with a heavy heart, all the joy of having joy for Yuan Xuexiu was replaced by worry.

She ordered someone to go to the front yard to bring in Jane Void White, “Take a look!”

“We’re not in the Imperial Capital right now, so for the time being, we can only pretend we don’t know.” After reading the letter, Jian Xu Bai’s face also turned somber, and he remained silent for a moment before saying, “The mourning period has not yet expired, so it’s impossible to rush back now. What’s more, if we go back now, there’s nothing else we can do except to apologize to the Empress – however, since the Empress has already expressed her intention to defend her, going to apologize will definitely just be a formality, and will probably also evoke the sadness in their hearts.”

Song Yixiao thought the same thing, and she gave the letter to her husband just so that he could be mentally prepared, so that he wouldn’t be caught off guard when he returned to the imperial capital at the end of the year.

Couple two because of this matter mood low for a long time, afraid of Jane Li Miao back to know the worry, and only reluctantly pull yourself together to cover up.

But after a few days, Jane Li Miao still knew.

It’s not that the two couples have revealed their flaws, but that Jian Li Miao has also received news from his colleagues from the imperial capital: some people have impeached him and Jian Xubaibai, not remembering the love of flesh and blood, brother and sister, colluding with the clan, and oppressing the son of the Grand Princess of the State of Jin, Jian Yiyu.

It is said that the impeachment of the table book folder several copies of Liaozhou side of the testimony of the people, the same moved out of the ancestral home, Jane Yiyu cold and desolate miserable, the three houses are sent to the warmth of the road.

Impeachment of the imperial historian is very literary, it is said that the table book will Jane Yiyu’s situation written tearful, Jane family three houses do is a thousand fingers can not describe the bad – so much so that the Duanhua emperor read half of the reading can not go on.

The Grand Princess of Jin, who was seen later, also had the rare honor of not immediately speaking to Jane Void White, but chose to remain silent.

For the reaction of the Grand Princess of Jin, Jane Li Miao three people are actually not very surprised, after all, with the Grand Princess a little more contact with the people, all know that the Grand Princess always like to lose more than enough to make up for the lack of.

More than ten years ago, Jane Yiyu was older, Jane Xubai was younger, Jane Yiyu plotted to kill his younger brother, and from that time on, the Grand Princess clearly favored Jane Xubai in the two sons surnamed Jane;

Now things have changed, the downtrodden into the Jane Yiyu, Jian Xubai fell Jane Li Miao love maintenance, then the heart of the Grand Princess, naturally also fell to Jane Yiyu.

What worried them was Emperor Duanhua.

Anyone in this dynasty knew of Emperor Duanhua’s favoritism towards the Duke of Yan’s House, and now that someone actually dared to openly go to the table to impeach Jian Xu Bai, this in itself showed that the Emperor’s attitude had probably changed because of the matter of Consort Mao.

And Jane Li Miao got the news, although the Duanhua Emperor ignored this impeachment, but also did not impeach the person how, but lightly reprimanded a few sentences, said that I believe that Jane Xubaibai father and son is definitely not such a person, and even if it is.

Such a statement is rather a hint for the man to bring more evidence.

“We’ve been away from the imperial capital for half a year, and in the middle of that time, something must have happened that no outsiders know about.” Although Jane Li Miao is on the same level as Jian Xubai, but in the end the age and seniority of that, experienced in politics, a look at the news said, “Otherwise, based on your relationship with His Majesty, and the face of the Empress Dowager, a single matter of the Maohu Fei, His Majesty’s heart is likely to have a grudge, the attitude has greatly changed to this extent, ten eight . Nine is an inside story!”
