Clear and Muddy Loss of Love

Chapter 274

too much honor

Both mother and daughter put on riding clothes and galloped on the horse farm for most of the day.

Nangong Jingnv hadn't ridden a horse for a long time and her riding skills were quite rusty, and Qi Yuxiao actually got the upper hand at the beginning. Nangong Jingnv couldn't help but sigh with emotion when she saw the little guy galloping on the pasture: the nature of blood is really a magical thing.

Although I intend to train Yu Xiao, I have never hired any equestrian master for her. The little guy can have such riding skills because of her own efforts, or more... the unique grassland blood flowing in her body .

During the play, Nangong Jingnv also chatted a lot with Qi Yuxiao. Although Yu Xiao was smarter and more sensible than children of the same age, she was still just a child after all. Soon Nangong Jingnv learned from the conversation that she wanted to know The thing about it——As expected, those palace people in the Pearl Palace have acted like slaves and bullies!

A few servants often use the name of "supervising" His Highness to study, get up early and wait for excuses, and trespass into Qi Yuxiao's study and bedroom. Not long ago, Nangong Jingnv was worried that Qi Yuxiao would be bullied. The child's frequent replacement of her personal maid is also not conducive to her growth. Maybe the inner court still has the power of the former princess, and it will be bad if they get mixed up with Yu Xiao.

Ganoderma lucidum and Immortal Grass Nangong Jingnv who served beside Qi Yuxiao before disliked them for being cowardly and careless, and sent them to the Clothes Bureau to do rough work. Counting a few years have passed, it is better to call them back, after all, they know their roots. Yes, and after several years of experience, I will naturally cherish the opportunity to serve Princess Yanyang even more.

However, Nangong Jingnv also felt that doing so would only treat the symptoms but not the root cause...

It was dusk, and after playing for most of the day, the mother and daughter drove back to the palace, Yu Xiao was extremely tired, and fell asleep on Nangong Jingnv's lap.

Nangong Jingnv looked down at the little guy, raised her hand to wipe the thin sweat off Qi Yuxiao's forehead, Nangong Jingnv thought for a long time and made a decision.

The next day, Nangong Jingnv bypassed the courtiers and promulgated an imperial decree through the procedure of the Inner Court Secretary: "Following the heavens to carry the emperor, the edict said: Princess Yanyang is intelligent and prudent, fulfills filial piety, and I am very happy. To live in the side hall of Ganquan Palace, and I will educate him personally. This is my honor."

This is what Nangong Jingnv thought of, the method to cure the root cause.

It is not enough to have the services of fairy grass and ganoderma lucidum, only taking Qi Yuxiao under his knees and raising him himself can not only ensure her safety, but also make those who bully her dare not do it again.

Now that Yu Xiao is still young, she may not understand the true meaning of "little bastard", but as she grows up day by day, this trauma will accompany her to grow...

however……

Although Nangong Jingnv tried her best to make this matter look like a harem family affair, the courtiers were still blown up when the news came out. Now that Xing Jingfu is not in the civil official group, only Lu Boyan is following the lead. After receiving the news, Lu Boyan immediately gave five of the six ministers Passed a message, asking them to follow him into the palace immediately to face the saint, naturally skipping over Qin De, who has already been appointed Minister of the Ministry of War.

Being taught by the emperor himself is not something that can be easily said with the word "honor". Throughout history, almost every prince who was raised by the emperor himself will be one of the heirs to the throne when he grows up. More than half of them They all became the next generation of emperors.

The reason why Nangong Rang raised Nangong Jingnv under his knees was that no one objected to it. One is that Nangong Jingnv was the only heir, she lost her mother when she was young and was a princess, and the courtiers all watched the relationship between Ma Shi and the late Emperor. In my eyes, but this time is different from the past: since the empress ascended the throne first, the next generation of empress can also be a princess!

Although the life and death of the Marquis of Bei'an is uncertain, as long as the empress does not marry a new concubine for a day, Qi Yuxiao, the princess who was bestowed with a golden record and jade certificate by the late emperor, can be counted as the eldest daughter of His Majesty...

How can there be family affairs when it is related to the State Reserve?

Besides, almost all the veterans knew that Princess Yan Yang was not born to His Majesty, but was born by the Marquis of Bei'an through an affair. How can such a bastard be worthy of the emperor's personal teaching?

As soon as the imperial decree was issued, the ministers who came to see him in half a day knelt in groups outside the imperial study room and begged for an audience.

Nangong Jingnv had planned for a long time, and after ordering people to put down the bead curtain, she invited these "loyal" courtiers to the imperial study.

The mark left by Qi Yan on her neck has not dissipated, this must not be seen by the courtiers.

Nangong Jingnu: "What are you aiqings talking about?"

Lu Boyan took the lead out of the line holding the jade wat: "Your Majesty Qizuo, I have come here today because I have doubts about His Majesty's decree to bring up Princess Yanyang personally under my knees, and I came here to find out the holy meaning."

Nangong Jingnv nodded indifferently, swept her beautiful eyes, and asked indifferently: "Is this why you all came here?"

After a few breaths of silence, the officials all said yes.

Nangong Jingnu: "This is just my family's business. Are your lords' hands stretched too far?"

Lu Boyan: "Your Majesty's words are wrong. As the saying goes, the family and the country, the affairs of the king are the affairs of the state. Which of the princes who can be raised by the king in the past dynasties will not be one of the candidates for the state heir when he grows up? So..."

The Minister of the Household Department was the oldest, and he went out to fight for the white and said: "The old minister is bold, please think twice. Even if your majesty loves Princess Yanyang, he dare not ask what kind of ministers he rewards, but the honor of the emperor's personal education is given as Princess Yanyang. , I'm afraid I can't bear it!"

Hubu Shangshu is not Lu Boyan's person, but a man of integrity who sincerely considers the court. Qi Yuxiao's life experience is well known to these veteran officials. Hubu Shangshu is worried that the Nangong family's world will fall into the hands of foreigners.

Nangong Jingnu: "It's up to me whether I accept it or not, and... Yu Xiao's golden record and jade certificate was given by the late emperor. Since it has entered the genealogy... I hope that in the future, regarding the identity of Princess Yanyang, Don't mention it again."

Lu Boyan: "Your Majesty, this world belongs to the Nangong family. Princess Yanyang does not have royal blood. I hope Your Majesty will think twice."

Nangong Jingnv chuckled, she was waiting for Lu Boyan to say this.

Nangong Jingnu: "Speaking of it...Although Marquis Zhonglie adopted under Princess Zhuohua's knee, he did not go to the fiefdom with Princess Zhuohua, but stayed in the capital, right?"

Lu Boyan: "Yes."

Nangong Jingnu: "Marquis Zhonglie is young, who is teaching him now?"

Lu Boyan: "Your Majesty, I will be raised by my wife, and I will check his homework from time to time."

Nangong Jingnu: "Oh...is that so? How did I hear that Marquis Zhonglie didn't study hard in the upper study room, and gathered a few children from aristocratic families to bully others and speak wild words?"

Lu Boyan's face froze, and he answered bravely: "I...don't know. But I believe this...maybe there is something else hidden."

Nangong Jingnv said slowly: "I remember that this child was adopted under your knee before, and I returned this child to the heir only after the Marquis Zhonglie died for the country. After all, it was only a matter of one or two years, right? ?”

Lu Boyan: "That's right."

Nangong Jingnu: "So who taught the Marquis Zhonglie to insult Princess Yanyang as a 'little bastard' in public?"

Lu Boyan's face changed completely, and the other ministers also somewhat understood when they heard His Majesty the Empress say so.

Which one in the field is not a well-educated Confucian, who attaches the most importance to the education of the children of the aristocratic family, even if someone has a dirty mind, they will never hurt others, this is the creed that most scholars in the Wei country uphold.

Even though many people have the same ideas as Marquis Zhonglie, it is still a disgraceful thing for them to scold directly.

Lu Boyan: "Your Majesty, this is a serious matter, and I hope Your Majesty will see it clearly."

Nangong Jingnu snorted coldly: "What? Could it be that Lu Pushe suspects that I can't make up a child?"

Lu Boyan: "I dare not..."

Nangong Jingnu: "Marquis Zhonglie is young, and after being a hero, I don't want to embarrass him, but Princess Yanyang is also the princess of the clan who was bestowed by the emperor with a golden book and jade certificate. You should know the consequences of the investigation. I also don't want to destroy the friendship between our two families. So, in order to prevent anyone from speaking unkindly in the future, I decided to take Princess Yanyang under my knees and teach her personally. Marquis Zhonglie is an incense of the Lu family. If the trouble continues... Zuo Pushe weigh it for himself."

One sentence pushed Lu Boyan into a dilemma: Lu Zhongxing only had this one son, and Nangong Jingnv had already made it very clear that the reason why she took Yu Xiao to the palace to raise herself was because Yu Xiao was insulted by Marquis Zhonglie. , but after the other party is loyal, don't pursue it anymore.

The crime of insulting the royal family is not small. If he knows the cause and effect and continues to make trouble, Lu Boyan will definitely bear the infamy of disregarding his brother's orphan.

Lu Boyan: "I, I will ask you clearly when I go back. If the matter is true, I will strictly discipline you. Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness."

Nangong Jingnu: "Since that's the case, all adults should go back to their respective residences. The imperial decree has been issued, so there is no need for jokes. Please don't think too deeply about it. I took Princess Yanyang under my knees and raised her personally. Hope the royals are insulted."

……

At night, Nangong Jingnv came to the forbidden area of ​​Ganquan Palace, Qi Yan was very pleasantly surprised, she thought it would be some time before she could see Nangong Jingnv again.

Nangong Jingnv brought a food box, and the two had dinner together in Qi Yan's bedroom, Nangong Jingnv took the initiative to mention what happened after she left, Qi Yan listened quietly, and replied: "I also feel that, Yu Xiao's status is not suitable for His Majesty to teach him personally."

Nangong Jingnu: "But Yuxiao is your blood relative after all, and I really love this child, and I don't want her to be wronged."

Qi Yan sighed softly, and replied: "Sometimes being wronged is not a bad thing, and..." Seeing Nangong Jingnv's slightly changed expression, Qi Yan stopped talking in time.

Qi Yan felt: Yu Xiao's life experience and her environment are doomed to be wronged all her life, it's better to let her understand earlier and hone her character.

And... just as the saying goes that Muxiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, the honor of being raised by the emperor himself is too great, and it is not suitable for Yu Xiao, a child of impure blood, but Qi Yan can't hide his disappointment when he sees Nangong Jingnv's face. Knowing that the other party had good intentions, he didn't say any more.

Qi Yan: "Since the imperial decree has been issued, you are not joking... Please Your Majesty to take more care from now on."
