The moon falling to the ground

Chapter 219 The Yan Family’s Attitude

Can we take seriously what girls say when they quarrel? The emperor is so serious, is he dissatisfied with the Taiwei Mansion?

After the palace maid left, Rong Taiwei angrily smashed a set of teacups, had his eldest son called out from the concubine's room, and scolded him.

Rong Wenxian, the eldest son of General Rong, also felt very aggrieved. He missed his shift one day and was lazy for a day, and just by chance, his father was in a bad mood and was scolded.

Rong Wenxian didn't care about the injury of a bastard. He didn't care about his own son, let alone the bastard. He only asked a few questions about Rong Xin, and when he learned that several famous doctors had been invited to see the patient, he just ignored it.

Instead, his wife, Yan, scolded Jian Yue and wanted to find a few people to teach Jian Yue a lesson.

Seeing that his daughter-in-law was reliable, General Rong finally felt better. He didn't care about Jian Yue, a little princess. When she was alone, he would kill her.

After Ji Yunzhong's explanation, Jian Yue was in a good mood. When she returned to the Princess's Mansion, she found that people from the Shangshu Mansion were waiting for her.

The Shangshu Mansion sent a nanny with a stern face, who first scolded her for being disrespectful to her elders and lacking filial piety, and then criticized her for being arrogant and causing trouble outside.

Jian Yue was so angry that she laughed.

This is what is called a relative, cold, selfish, and self-interested. How could she be so unlucky to have such a family?

Jian Yue asked Aunt Qiu to slap the nanny twice, and asked Fu Yun to carry her out and throw her outside the door.

Tired of heart!

The reason why the Shangshu Mansion knew what happened in the Eastern Palace so quickly was thanks to the two Zhao sisters.

Seeing that Rong Xin didn't get any advantage and was possessed by evil spirits, the two left the East Palace immediately and ran to the Shangshu Mansion to report the news. The two added fuel to the fire. In their mouths, Jian Yue became the arrogant person who relied on her status as a princess to do whatever she wanted.

Before Minister Yan was off duty, Old Lady Xiang called Yan Xiuyuan and his wife to her side and gave them a scolding, saying that they had not taught their daughter well and that she was causing trouble outside.

Could they possibly offend the Grand Marshal's Mansion and the mother and son of Concubine Rong? The Second Prince's popularity was very high now, and almost half of the court officials had already sided with the Second Prince. The Grand Marshal's Mansion had been raising money outside to support the Second Prince's operations over the years. These were things that the court officials knew very well.

The reason why Yan Xiuyuan accepted the second prince's olive branch was because his elder brother Yan Xiusheng had clearly expressed his support for the second prince. But not long after Yan Xiusheng expressed his position, he heard that the prince's poison had been cured. This made Yan Xiusheng a little regretful.

Yan Xiusheng was, after all, an old fox in the officialdom. He decided to wait and see. Even if he supported the Second Prince, he would try not to offend the Crown Prince, lest the Yan family be liquidated if the Crown Prince succeeded to the throne. Who knew that he had planned everything, but he didn't expect that Jian Yue had offended the Taiwei Mansion and the Second Prince and his mother just three or four days after coming.

This ability to attract hatred is really amazing!

The old lady was so angry that she complained of a headache and asked Yuanshi to send someone to capture Jian Yue and teach her a lesson. Yuanshi still had some plans in her mind and did not dare to really capture someone. So, she sent a strict nanny to test Jian Yue. If Jian Yue honestly accepted the nanny's reprimand, she would let go and capture the person. If not... she could only let the master solve it.

The nanny from the Shangshu Mansion came back covered in dust and made Xiang very angry again.

This cheap granddaughter slapped the nanny's face, wasn't she slapping the Shangshu Mansion's face? It seemed that she was really crazy and didn't even take the Shangshu Mansion seriously.

As soon as Yan Xiusheng got off duty, he was blocked at the door by General Rong and scolded.

Yes, General Rong is so arrogant.

To put it bluntly, Yan Xiusheng is just a dog of the Second Prince. What does he have to worry about?

Yan Xiusheng was scolded and felt completely confused. He didn't know why. The key point was that he didn't dare to argue with General Rong.

General Rong was nearly 70 years old and suffered from vertigo. He was afraid that General Rong would become too emotional and cause dizziness, and he would not be able to take responsibility then.

Yan Xiusheng returned to the Shangshu Mansion with a lot of anger. He learned that it was because Jian Yue offended Rong Xin that he was scolded by General Rong, and he became even angrier.

He called Yan Xiuyuan to the study and said directly: "Second brother, it is really outrageous that your daughter has not been raised by your side since she was a child. Since you can't control her, marry her off quickly."

Yan Xiuyuan was also angry and resentful towards Jian Yue. Why was she so troublesome? Was it so difficult to be a well-behaved and lovable princess?

Now being questioned by his elder brother, Yan Xiuyuan felt insecure and said in a weak voice: "Yue'er is a princess after all, so even if she is looking for a husband, she has to find one of equal status."

Yan Xiusheng sneered: "She grew up in the countryside and knows nothing about etiquette and rules. Do you think she can be a wife in charge of the household?"

Yan Xiuyuan was stunned and said unhappily: "She is valued by the emperor. If she marries down, what good will it bring to our Yan family?"

Yan Xiusheng softened his tone and said earnestly: "Second brother, the prosperity of the Yan family requires the concerted efforts of both of us brothers. Now the Second Prince has the highest popularity, so why not give Yue girl to the Second Prince as a concubine. In this way, the trouble caused by Yue girl can be wiped out, and the future of our Yan family will be limitless."

Yan Xiuyuan looked at his elder brother: "The reason why mother is willing to make peace with me is because she is targeting Yue'er, right? She wants Yue'er to pave the way for the Yan family to move to a higher level?"

Yan Xiusheng's old face turned red, and he said dissatisfiedly: "Don't say such harsh words. Which girl doesn't pave the way for the family? Since they have enjoyed the family's glory and wealth, they have the obligation to contribute to the family."

Yan Xiuyuan was silent. After a moment, he said, "Such remarks are not suitable for Yue'er. Because she has never enjoyed the wealth of the Yan family. Even after she came back, she followed Mao Shenyi for medical treatment and never enjoyed the resources of the family. Brother, she has no sense of belonging to the Yan family. Unless she wants to, she probably won't marry for the sake of the family."

Yan Xiusheng snorted coldly: "Is it unfair for her to be the second prince's concubine? We two brothers will help her, maybe she will have the opportunity to rule the country in the future."

Yan Xiuyuan's heart skipped a beat.

Yes! Why didn't he think of this? Who said that a concubine will always be a concubine? If the wife is gone, the concubine can also be promoted to the wife!

At this moment, Yan Xiuyuan's heart was deeply moved.

Seeing his second brother's intention, Yan Xiusheng immediately struck while the iron was hot and persuaded him: "In fact, the second prince has long been interested in Yue girl, and he had mentioned before that he wanted to take her as a concubine, but was stopped by the prince's faction. Yue girl has extraordinary abilities, so the prince's faction naturally does not want her to join the second prince's camp. But think about it, if Yue girl becomes the second prince's concubine, will the emperor's determination to depose her be set in stone?"

Yan Xiuyuan's heart was burning with passion.

He felt that his elder brother's words...
