The Crown Princess came in person with a big belly to apologize and receive the punishment, so it was not easy for them to make a fuss in the palace by citing Daji's reason for betraying the country.
In the end, the mourning in the court was the result of Ming Jin withdrawing his troops.
However, as a female member of the harem, the Crown Princess came to the main hall without hearing His Majesty's message, which obviously violated the ancestral rules.
So Luoyun was reprimanded by His Majesty and ordered to go back to the East Palace to cultivate himself and raise his fetus, and was not allowed to leave the palace without permission.
On the way back that day, both Vanilla and Ji Qiu felt sorry for their princess.
Even the Zong clan of Jiankang Palace sighed and shook his head after hearing this: "The women in this palace have to take the blame for the men from time to time. Until Luoyun entered the East Palace, he has not summoned his father, but he is still affected by his father's brothers..."
Speaking of this, she looked at her second daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zheng, who was serving in front of her, and warned her uneasily: "Now that the court is filled with lawsuits, you must also pay attention. When you marry into our royal family, you must be cautious in everything and don't cause trouble for your husband!"
Mrs. Zheng just listened with a smile and nodded, indicating that her mother-in-law had taught her that she must pay more attention to it.
Compared with the eldest daughter-in-law who is soft on the outside but tough on the inside, the second daughter-in-law from a scholarly family is much more submissive and kind.
Because of the previous revision of the poetry collection, Han Xiao often gave the bride a cold look after their marriage, but Zheng didn't complain at all, and only smiled every day to meet the second prince's cold face.The second prince deliberately kept her cold, but she was not impatient and just calmly looked at her book and wrote her own words.
This kind of family education and self-cultivation is also unparalleled.
Even the eldest brother Han Linfeng comforted Han Xiao: "If my father had not ascended the throne, you would not be able to reach a talented and beautiful Confucian woman like your siblings. If you don't like this, don't delay the family, break up as soon as possible, and marry some flattering common people to match you. Anyway, the Zheng family's daughter has no need to worry about getting married, and there is no need to hang her in your ice cellar!"
As time passed, Han Xiao became a little discouraged and felt that he was boring. The relationship with Zheng had somewhat eased in the past few days.
Unfortunately, the relationship between the second prince and his wife had just eased, but the harmony between the prince and his wife in the East Palace was finally broken.
His Majesty weighed the pros and cons, and although he found out that Su Guiyan had not engaged in malpractice for personal gain or slacked off in his duties, in order to ease the relationship with the aristocratic family, he finally issued an imperial edict to punish Su Guiyan, moving him to the left and denouncing him to the bitter cold of the north.
With this imperial edict, the descendants of the Imperial Master finally came to terms with themselves and felt that they had regained their face.The rest of the aristocratic families were also gloating.
After being made such a fuss by the emperor's descendants, the authority of the land equalization system was greatly reduced. As long as the wealthy gentry in each township and county used serious names to prevent the poor people from encircling their land, then this new policy would gradually be abolished.
If most of the refugees have farmland, then what’s the point?Where do they hire tenant farmers to farm the large fields owned by the family?Even if we can hire people, the prices are not as low as before!
Now that Su Guiyan was reprimanded, this was the first step for the new emperor to bow to the noble family.
On the night when the imperial edict was issued, Luoyun, who loved his brother so much, perhaps because of a moment of unbearable depression in his heart, fought for his brother's injustice, and actually had a big quarrel with the prince Han Linfeng.The sound of things being smashed.Even the palace people in the outer courtyard can hear it.
Huai Xia was reprimanded by the Crown Princess because she had other thoughts, and wanted to kick her out.Later, Huaixia cried and asked Jiqiu to intercede for her. The palace servants in this palace all had seniority. After all, if Huaixia was like Vanilla and the others, when she leaves the palace next year, she would have completed her service and could get an extra settling-in allowance.
Finally, Ji Qiu took the courage to plead for mercy.Perhaps the Crown Princess had calmed down at that time, and finally relied on the master-servant relationship of the past two years to reluctantly agree to her stay.
Although Huaixia can no longer enter the inner courtyard, she can do some simple work in the outer courtyard. As long as the time is up, she can leave the palace with Vanilla and the others.
That day, she listened at the door to the noise in the house, and Prince Han Linfeng patiently whispered comfort at first, but Su Luoyun had no intention of giving in, and their voices became louder and louder.
In the end, the prince was obviously fed up with the persuasion, and he angrily scolded Su Guiyan for being ignorant of current affairs and shallow, insisting on turning this trivial matter into a storm in the court.
Perhaps because the prince was angry, Su Luoyun finally stopped arguing, but began to choke and sob. Then Huaixia saw Han Linfeng hurried away with an angry look on his face.
After a while, Ji Qiu came out carrying a basin with a dejected look on his face.
Huai Xia quickly grabbed her and asked quietly what was going on?I haven't seen the two masters blush in more than two years of marriage, so why are they so quarreling today?
Ji Qiu sighed and whispered: "In order to stop the turmoil in the previous dynasty, Your Majesty decided to relegate Su Guiyan to the north. I heard that the poverty there is even worse than Liangzhou. There is a year-round lack of water and you can't take a bath all year round. The Crown Princess feels sorry for her younger brother and wants the Crown Prince to beg for mercy in front of Your Majesty. Don't send your brother to the north."The younger brother was demoted so far.But the prince said that there is a lot of criticism in the court and his Majesty's life is not easy.How could he, as the crown prince, embarrass his father?Alas, I have never seen the prince crying so hard. Her eyes were red and swollen."
Huai Xia felt sad and sighed, nodded and whispered: "You and Vanilla will have to persuade the Crown Princess in a while."
Ji Qiu also nodded, and handed the copper basin in his hand to Hua Xia with a look of helplessness, then turned around and went back.
During the rest of that day, when Huaixia was delivering things to the inner courtyard, she would hear Su Luoyun's choking sounds from time to time.
Huai Xia knew that the Crown Princess's weakest spot, apart from the Crown Prince, was her biological brother. Now that his brother had suffered such a disaster, it was no wonder that the Crown Princess was sad.
As soon as the prince left, he did not return all night.On the second day, Huaixia had just gotten up when she heard a bang from the courtyard, and then heard the princess's tense voice, asking Vanilla loudly what time it was and why was it still so dark?
When the Crown Princess said this, it was already bright and the sun was shining brightly.
After Vanilla hurriedly entered the house, she soon heard Vanilla crying sadly: "My eldest girl, what's wrong with you? Why do you have an eye problem again? I advised you not to cry too much yesterday, but you refused to listen... Let's see what happens!"
Then there was a chaos in the inner courtyard. The old doctor who had been treating Luo Yun all year round also ran and panted all the way carrying the medicine box into the inner courtyard. After a while, the old gentleman shook his head and left with a sigh.
Huaixia guarded the door, and while delivering water to the inner courtyard, he grabbed Jiqiu and asked the princess if she was sick and why she looked bad at the old doctor's face.
Ji Qiu looked at the people around her with a sad expression, and then whispered: "I'm just telling you, please don't tell others that our Crown Princess's eye disease... seems to have happened again."
Huaixia's eyes widened when he heard this. Did he suffer from eye disease again?Could it be that the Crown Princess could not see things again and became blind?
