Poisonous Peasant 'Concubine'

Chapter 284 Palace Banquet - The Empress Dowager

"Okay, okay, the family doesn't talk about each other, today is a good day to celebrate the triumphant return of the soldiers, let's stop arguing here, Princess Cheng, please don't say a few words, Mrs. Zheng is an elder after all. , You said that you have no relatives and no reason in this capital, and you are not familiar with the rules. Isn’t Mrs. Zheng teaching you? And you are also Wanrong. How can you intervene in Prince Cheng’s family affairs? If it is agreed Fortunately, if you make a mistake, maybe people will say something about you."

The empress dowager who was sitting on the high place acted as a peacemaker kindly, but what she said sounded like she was accusing Ling Jingxuan of not knowing what was good and what was wrong. Mrs. Zheng was also a good person, and she bowed down the steps: "The empress dowager is right. , Your wife is talking too much, please don't take it to heart, Princess Cheng."

The sister-in-law and sister-in-law made it clear that they teamed up to tease him, and many of them looked like they were enjoying the show, but Ling Jingxuan waved his hands boldly: "It's all right, it's all right, as the queen mother said, we are also considered a family, and the family can chat casually." This concubine won't take it to heart, but Mrs. Zheng, don't blame this concubine's mother-in-law for talking too much. From now on, this concubine advises you not to interrupt indiscriminately about other people's backyard affairs. Knowing that you have good intentions, relying on your seniority to educate us, if you encounter someone who can't think, can't you say that you have a lot of tongue? At that time, it will not only be Mrs. Zheng, but even the Duke of the country will lose face and lose his identity Son."

You are simply saying in a disguised form that people are talking about their seniority and talking too much!

Hearing this, everyone present could not help but slander, except him, who would think that way?Who dares to think like that?He did it on purpose. Mrs. Zheng twitched with anger, but she couldn't refute it. She was indeed the one who provoked this matter first, but who knew that his temper was so straightforward, and his words were so straightforward that he could put the words in the tomb to death. The dead man was revived, how could it be like him if he was someone else? "Yes, yes, what the princess said is very true."

Apart from saying this, she didn't know what to say anymore, Ling Jingxuan always gave people the feeling of being very powerless, but he always took advantage of it every time, making them useless even if they had thousands of words, all kinds of scheming.

The queen mother had a panoramic view of everything. Although she was dissatisfied that Ling Jingxuan did not give her natal family face, she could not be too obvious in front of so many people. She wished that someone would pull him out and chop him up, so that he would not keep embarrassing her.

In fact, Ling Jingxuan didn't use any clever tricks, he just pretended to be stupid, he didn't understand what he should understand, and he understood what he didn't understand. The most important reason why the fighting masters are not his opponents is that they all cherish their feathers very much and don't want it to be stained with dirt. Ling Jingxuan's reputation was given to him long before he came to the capital. When the corruption is gone, it is better to smash the cans than to cleanse yourself. As the saying goes, people who are shameless are afraid of ghosts, that's the reason.

"Okay, you guys, Ai's forehead hurts from the quarrel."

There is nothing wrong with that stupid and straightforward countryman, the queen mother simply pretended to have a headache, and Chu Yunhan, who had never said anything, said in a timely manner: "Since the mother has a headache, why not let them kneel down."

It's best not to make any more fuss, with you people, how can you be Jingxuan's opponent?

"Aijia is not that weak."

She took a hard look at the meddling queen, and the queen didn't dare to pretend to have a headache anymore. Her eyes swept over everyone below, and finally stopped on Ling Jingxuan: "Prince Sheng's mansion is no different. He has made great achievements, and not long ago, the Beiman envoys signed a peace agreement with us to pay tribute every year. All of this can be said to be the credit of the old nine. There is no war, the Ai family thinks that the palace should be unified, otherwise it will be a joke, do you understand what the Ai family means?"

Understand shit!Ling Jingxuan secretly rolled his eyes, she didn't speak clearly, he is not a god, what do you understand?

"Big?? You probably understand, the queen mother means don't tell people to read the jokes of the palace, right? The queen mother can rest assured, who dares to read the jokes of my prince?"

After pretending to be dazed for a moment, Ling Jingxuan pretended to half understand. Since someone said half of what he said, he naturally understood half of it.

You better understand!

The empress dowager's disdain became more and more serious, and she didn't take him seriously. Seeing that he always only understood the literal meaning, and was so stupid that he couldn't understand the hidden meaning, the empress dowager simply pointed it out to him: "The Ai family knows it." No one dares to see your jokes in front of your face, but what about behind your back? Princess Sheng, the Ai family said something bad. You, a farmer, became the princess of Prince Sheng, which is a big joke in itself. Don’t you feel sorry for Laojiu? ?”

What he said, not only Ling Jingxuan, but also the other wives and concubines couldn't help being surprised. They looked at the Queen Mother strangely. She might be a little too disrespectful to Prince Cheng, right?As the saying goes, don't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face, even if there are many faults with Prince Cheng, Prince Cheng's meritorious service stands there, and the Queen Mother, as the most honorable woman in the entire country, shouldn't say such words , How does this make Prince Sheng, who insists on marrying him, deal with himself?

However, thinking about Ling Jingxuan's stupidity, everyone was relieved, let alone put it bluntly, people don't understand, Prince Sheng is also unlucky, why did he have such a concubine?

"The empress dowager means that my concubine's status as a farmer has insulted Sheng Rui and also tarnished your royal family?"

To be blunt, right?Then everyone should be straightforward, Ling Jingxuan narrowed his eyes dangerously, and before the Queen Mother could answer, he said in a concentrated voice: "If this concubine remembers well, our Taizu Emperor is a farmer, and the Taizu Empress can't even read a single word." However, Emperor Taizu, a farmer, not only opened up thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in the Qing Dynasty, but also had only one queen in his life. Should he commit suicide in shame and indignation? Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and farmers are ranked second. If you follow the Queen Mother’s wishes, isn’t this a big joke?”

Hmph, damned old hag, do you really think he's afraid of her because he flatters him everywhere?Since she is shameless, then don't be shameless at all.

"You. Presumptuous!"

The queen mother was trembling with anger, and slapped her hard on the armrest of the Phoenix chair, pointing at his hand like a chicken claw, with white foam of anger on the corner of her mouth, staring at his eyes As if the bag might fall out at any moment, everyone present knelt down in unison: "Queen Queen, calm down!"

All the wives warned in unison, but it was of no effect at all. With the audience, the queen mother became even more angry, pointing at Ling Jingxuan who was still sitting still, and cursed: "Well, you are a princess, you dare to move out of Taizu?" The queen came to suppress Ai's family, could it be that you are a farmer with Laojiu or Laojiu? You dare to compare with Taizu Empress?"

The ancients valued filial piety the most, and the Daqing Dynasty ruled the country with filial piety. Even if what he said was true, the queen mother would not allow him to charge herself with unfilial piety. Otherwise, even if the emperor did not abolish her, the people of the world You have to scold her to death, a hundred years later, what face will she have to go down to meet the ancestors of the Yan royal family?

"They're both farmers and women, why can't they compare? Or is it because the queen mother prescribes medicine to others, and she can't afford to provoke the empress Taizu, so she uses my concubine as a knife?"

Without farmers, where did you come from?Ling Jingxuan has no intention of backing down at all. If he backs down here today, they might think he's easy to bully in the future. Hmph, she's just an old woman, isn't it just that she has a higher status and really thinks she is a god?Giving her three points of face really opened up the dyeing room.

"You, you, you. You obviously didn't expect him to dare to talk back. The queen mother pointed at him for a long time, but you didn't make a fuss. Chu Yunhan and Jinmao who were next to him hurriedly supported him from left to right, and he was about to collapse. body of.

"Queen Dowager, please calm down. Princess Sheng is new here and doesn't know the rules, so don't be as knowledgeable as him."

Helping him to sit down again, Chu Yunhan comforted him in a low voice. If he listened carefully, there was no ups and downs in his tone. The Queen Mother waved him away angrily, pointed at Ling Jingxuan and said angrily: "Come here, give the Ai family Slap your mouth, a little concubine dares to blaspheme the Taizu empress, the Ai family will replace the ancestors of the Yan family to practice the family law, and teach this unworthy descendant a lesson."

Even in her fury, the queen mother did not forget to protect her identity, and forcibly pinned the charge of unfilial piety on Ling Jingxuan.

"Yes!"

Nanny Jin turned around with a fierce face, and walked down the steps step by step. When she was about to reach Ling Jingxuan, she waved her hand, and a dozen rough eunuchs rushed in, and a group of people approached Ling Jingxuan by coincidence.

"Snapped!"

"Whoever dares to move, this concubine will be the first to kill him!"

"Things that don't know how to live or die, you are also worthy of touching Princess Sheng? Get out of here, Miss!"

Before Ling Jingxuan could move, Princess Huajun who was sitting next to him and Ye Ruyun who was standing behind him jumped out from left to right. Princess Huajun waved fiercely the long whip that was hanging around her waist and never left her body. The sound of piercing the air resounded through the hall. Although Ye Ruyun didn't have a weapon in hand and she was a woman, she had been in the army all year round. How could ordinary people be able to resist her evil spirit?

Not only the rough envoy eunuchs, but even Jin Nao couldn't help taking a few steps back. The concubine and concubines had already left their seats, and they all gathered opposite them and looked at them in shock. No one thought that that The arrogant and domineering Huajun Princess, who had always been alone, would stand up to help Ling Jingxuan. Sitting on a high place, Chu Yunhan glanced at Ling Jingxuan worriedly, seeing his calm appearance, he was quietly relieved.

"Bold Concubine Huajun, Captain Ye, Aijia teaches his daughter-in-law, it's none of your business, let Aijia get out of the way."

The Empress Dowager stood up abruptly, her body stopped shaking, her voice stopped trembling, and her eyes were almost burning with real sparks of anger. It can be seen that she was really angry this time, and even forgot her original purpose.

"The empress dowager wants to teach her daughter-in-law a lesson. I have no objection, but what did Aunt Jiuhuang do wrong? You are rushing to talk, and Aunt Jiuhuang is just defending herself. Is there something wrong? This is the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law rules of the Yan royal family? Ben Gong It’s been recognized.”

The word "Ben Gong" at the end clearly told the Queen Mother that his identity at this time was the Third Prince of the Western Kingdom. If she wanted to use her status as the Queen Mother of the Qing Dynasty to suppress him, I'm sorry, she was not qualified enough.

"I also agree with Princess Huajun's meaning. It is the Queen Mother who dislikes Princess Sheng's status as a farmer. He is just giving you an example to tell you that farmers are not lowly. Is it true that the Queen Mother really only listens to flattery as the outside world sings?" Flattery, do not accept loyal words? Or is it that the Queen Mother wants to bully Prince Cheng and Concubine Sheng because she is an elder and the mother of a country? Forgive me for taking the liberty, but I have to ask the emperor about it. country's rules."

Ye Ruyun didn't back down either. She hadn't been in the capital all year round, so she didn't understand many of the rules in the capital, and her style of behavior was basically the same as that of a man. What's more, she was already engaged to Ling Jingpeng, and she was Ling Jingpeng's future daughter-in-law and Ling Jingxuan's sister-in-law. Will you watch him being slapped in public?If this really goes on, how will Princess Sheng see people in the future?How can Prince Sheng lead the three armies?
