The character interpretation of "Do You Know If It Should Be Green Fat Red Thin" Issue 60: The aftershocks of the Shenchen Rebellion made the foundationless Eighth Prince usher in the heavens and fortunes, but can he catch it?
01
"I disagree." My mother patted the table and said to her father.
Dad choked and said, "The queen's mother has already revealed the meaning of marrying, we can only let Fen'er marry..."
Looking at my father and mother like this, my heart is very uncomfortable.
But the direction of the wind in the court is related to the fate of various families. Looking at the behavior of the current emperor, you can see that he is resourceful.
So, for the sake of the family and my father, I gritted my teeth and knelt down to my father's knees: "Dad, I will marry." ”
02
My name is Zhang Guifen, I am the top noble daughter in the Beijing circle, my father is the old general of the British Gong Zhang, and my mother is also a famous noble girl.
As long as our family stands there, even if it is a royal person, we must give three points. So, growing up, I was the most noble of my cousins.
But now, I have been married to the emperor's brother-in-law Shen Congxing, and I don't know how many people laugh at me behind my back.
Although Shen Congxing has military merits, he is also a super Weibei Marquis. But he was a widower who had just died of his wife.
Moreover, he also has a sister-in-law.
When my father wanted me to marry me, my mother cried so much that she almost fainted.
Actually, I can refuse to marry me, but I am a young lady in the British Mansion, so I naturally know the stakes here.
First: My family has never participated in the dispute over the throne, and the emperor today has no mother and wife family to rely on. My father is the main assistant of the country, and my sons and daughters are in the barracks. Therefore, the emperor had to stabilize his power through marriage.
Second: If the queen's mother proposes a marriage, my family must produce the girl with the highest status to show sincerity. Otherwise, casually stuffing a girl from the Zhang family over will make the emperor displeased. After all, he is a king, we are subjects, and the king wants his subjects to die.
Third: Shen Congxing is the emperor's brother-in-law, and naturally he trusts him, so I married through the Shen family to stabilize the relationship between my Zhang family and the emperor.
And the Shen family has no foundation, Shen Congxing's current brilliance, in the eyes of us old aristocrats, he is an upstart.
Therefore, the Shen family also needs my Zhang family to enhance their own power.
So, with a hijab, I became the younger sister of the empress, Lady Shen of Weibeihou.
03
I am also a woman, and I also have a longing for my husband.
On the wedding night, I saw my husband handsome, not at all like a father of three children, and I liked it. However, not long after we got married, he brought in the wife and sister of the original wife Dazou clan.
My mother said to me, "In a family like ours, it is normal to have three wives and four concubines. Moreover, the Zou family is kind to the Shen family and the queen's mother-in-law, and you should get along with that little Zou family. ”
I naturally understand the truth of what my mother said. It's just that I'm a little uncomfortable in my heart.
But after that little Zou clan passed the door, she wanted to fight for the long and short everywhere, and when I was a little angry, she cried and ran to Shen Congxing to complain: "Sister is virtuous, if she is still there, I will definitely not be a concubine, nor will I suffer such grievances..."
Every time, Shen Congxing persuaded me: "You are a lady who has seen the world, and you are a housemother, let her be more!" ”
Slowly, I became disappointed with Shen Congxing.
04
Soon, Xiao Zou was pregnant, and Shen Congxing stayed in her room overnight, and the palace also rewarded a lot of things.
Little Zou became more and more proud in front of me.
However, in just three months, the pregnant little Zou actually jumped into the water and saved the child of the Big Zou family.
In the end, Xiao Zou miscarried, and the palace rewarded some things, and also sealed her with a five-rank commandment.
I thought something was strange, so I let people look it up.
It turned out that Xiao Zou's fetus was unstable, and the child could not be saved at all. In order to fix the favor, the Zou family gave her a bad idea.
Let the grandmother lead the child of the Big Zou clan to the water's edge, causing him to lose his footing and fall into the water, and the little Zou clan sacrificed his life to save him.
This approach made me feel chills in my lips and teeth. Is prosperity and wealth really more important than blood relatives?
So, I closed the door and lived my own little life.
05
Since then, Shen Congxing has lived with the Xiao Zou family every day. Occasionally coming to my yard, we also rarely talked.
But, just like that, I got pregnant.
After I was pregnant, my heart was complicated. I want the birth of my child, but I don't want him to be born in such a bad family.
After knowing that I was pregnant, Xiao Zou was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. In order to block me, she held the time for half a cup of tea for my imperial doctor.
I didn't bother to take care of her.
As I grew older, the Zou family visited the house more and more frequently, and they always discussed in Xiao Zou's house.
Just when I was about to give birth, the people of the Zou family actually beat the maid next to me.
I've put up with them for a long time, and this time I can't get angry, so I asked them to theorize. In the midst of the pushing, I was born prematurely. After I gave birth to the child, I learned that the Shen family and the Zou family had changed their lives.
The eldest uncle of the Zou family was exiled 3,000 miles southwest, and the second uncle had 30 large plates, and confiscated most of the family property as compensation, and Shen Guo's uncle was reprimanded by the divine decree, fined for one year, and thought about it behind closed doors for three months.
Xiao Zou was stripped of his life, and his face was also opened.
06
On the third day after I gave birth, my mother advised me to take this opportunity to reconcile with Shen Congxing.
But I hate it in my heart.
However, I have a child, I have a concern, and for the sake of my mother's family, I must reconcile with Shen Congxing.
First of all: the emperor only had this grass platform team brought back from Shubian. Therefore, no matter how big a mistake Shen Congxing makes, he will only knock and will not punish. Because, he will continue to reuse Shen Congxing.
Secondly: my father will not really watch Shen Congxing have an accident, otherwise my life will be difficult, even the original marriage will have no meaning.
So, on the fourth day after I gave birth, Shen Congxing stepped into my house, and the two of us sat in silence for a long time.
In the end, I ignored my grandmother's admonition and threw myself into Shen Congxing's arms and cried fiercely.
At this point, we are reconciled.
Since then, Shen Congxing has been resting here night and night. From the perspective of outsiders, we are more husband and wife, and father and son have a deep relationship.
But only I know that this is just a "power game".
07
I am faithful to my children.
My Zhang family is an honest and important minister, but I can't talk about "loyalty". I can't let my father go to the court to ask for justice for me because I was angry in the Shen family.
In that case, my Zhang family will inevitably fall into a domineering notoriety.
So, for such a long time, my father and mother felt sorry for me while looking for an opportunity to fight back. Xiao Zou's premature birth happened to be a breakthrough.
So, after recovering from illness for a few days, my father said to the emperor: "Your Majesty is the lord of the world, that is, if the Zhang family fights bloody battles and fights to the death, which of the sons and daughters will frown?"
At any time, when His Majesty wants it, the old courtier's sword is pointed, which is the duty of the courtier. Moreover, when it comes to the marriage of children, His Majesty should not be disturbed by the woman's crying. ”
These words were to remind the emperor.
My marriage, when the emperor entered Beijing, had an eyebrow with the Zheng family. It's just that the emperor stepped in sideways and had to give marriage. Although my Zhang family did not want to, my daughter also got married. was also bullied by the Shen family's concubine.
Therefore, my Zhang family is full of loyalty, and I will not forget my duty for the trivial affairs of my children.
08
Shen Congxing's "snow hide" is the emperor's public relations means.
Shen Congxing was reprimanded by the divine decree, fined for one year, and pondered behind closed doors for three months. It seems that outsiders are very disappointed in this brother-in-law.
However, gossip is time-sensitive, and people's memories are automatically deleted. This matter will soon be forgotten.
Now Xue Zang Shen Congxing is the best means to protect him. At the same time, it is also the best public relations means.
Shen Congxing can also take the opportunity to clean up the inner mansion.
Because, a concubine room controls most of the Hou Mansion, which is already an after-dinner conversation in the capital. The Da Zou clan left three sons and daughters, and the little Zou clan acted as an aunt to replace the Zhang clan as a mother.
At this point, Shen Congxing's sons and daughters want to discuss relatives, and good people will retreat.
But the Great Zou family has kindness to the Shen family, and when this storm passes, the emperor will definitely reuse Shen Congxing. At that time, the emperor will also pity Shen Congxing for being burdened by his family lineage.
09
The Zhang family and the Shen family are estranged but they have to be pinched together, which is what the emperor is most willing to see.
The relationship between the Zhang family and the Shen family is actually very delicate.
Although the emperor valued the children born to the empress, the other princes were also his children. In the future, no matter who inherits the throne, it will not matter to the emperor.
However, it was different for the Shen family. If another prince is appointed as the crown prince, then the Shen family will be a thorn in the side of the future new monarch.
If the relationship between the Zhang and Shen families was too close, the emperor would also consider whether the other crown prince would protest by the masses, and whether the son of Empress Shen would rely on the Zhang family and the Shen family to rebel.
If the relationship between the Zhang family and the Shen family is too tense, the emperor will feel that both families treat the Holy Will as bullshit, and they are not respected.
Therefore, it is perfect to have an Aunt Zou girl who comes out from time to time, so that Zhang Shen and his family can never eliminate the gap.
010
In this way, Shen Congxing and I lived for many years.
Shen Congxing knows that I look down on his indecisive nature, and I also know that Shen Congxing encounters things and prevents me from being like a thief.
It wasn't until Shen Congxing's eldest son hit the wall that he deeply realized how chaotic the Shen family's back house was. The concubine of my grand prince occupies the title of concubine; Xiao Zou, the aunt who married her brother-in-law as a concubine, accounted for the actual situation.
After the new daughter-in-law entered the door, if she honored me, Xiao Zou would definitely be dissatisfied, and her husband would also be displeased.
But if you want your own golden and noble lady to curry favor with a concubine, and serve like a serious mother-in-law, won't it be shameful, and even the mother's family will not be able to go out to meet people.
Shen Congxing actually took the sword sideways and asked me to say goodbye for my sister-in-law.
I immediately sneered: "The eldest young master has never even called me a mother so far, only his aunt is in his heart, and if he asks for a daughter-in-law in the future, it is not me who serves." Hou Ye is really good at entertaining people, pinching my good sex, bullying our Zhang family is too much! ”
011
Finally, Shen Congxing went to ask the empress.
I heard that the final result was that the queen was going to marry her daughter to her nephew.
This dynasty decreed that Princess Shang's colt could only be knighted and rewarded with fictitious titles.
I think it's funny to think about it, Shen Congxing saw in the end, his sister-in-law was unbearable, and in order to keep his wealth, he actually cut off his career in advance.
However, none of this has anything to do with me.
Shen Congxing and I seem to be a loving couple, but in fact we are helpless.
After all, this chess game of mine, when the emperor gave the marriage, was a dead end. I only hope that my children can jump out of this chess game and avoid the game of "power tricks".
Xiao Xian'er has something to say: Zhang Guifen, a British concubine, really makes me fall in love. I personally feel that it doesn't matter if a woman has love or not, but her head must be clear.
In fact, if you look closely, her situation is even more difficult than Old Lady Sheng. However, her brain is clearer than Old Lady Sheng, and she can be beautiful alone in such a dead end!
