The princess was deposed and became the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo. Although the old housekeeper hoped that the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion would have a real mistress, she did not know that this was not a good thing.
In the capital, some ignorant noble ladies even held a banquet to celebrate, saying that it was unjust for a woman to be in power, and now things were finally set right.
He secretly sent people to investigate, and the leader turned out to be the third lady of General Dingguo's mansion.
General Dingguo is a close friend of the Crown Princess, and they fought side by side. Even our family has this attitude. How hurt must our young mistress be?
However, there is an even stranger phenomenon: even though the young mistress was deposed, a large number of memorials were still quietly sent from the palace every day, and Song Jinxiu was still as busy as ever.
It is right to be in a position to govern and to fulfill one's responsibilities, but if one is not in a position but still governs, isn't this an act of usurpation?
What is the deposed princess trying to do?
What is the emperor doing?
Seeing that the young master and the young mistress were so close in love was gratifying, but the behavior of the abandoned princess made her uneasy.
If they and the deposed princess of the Zhenguo Mansion were tied to the same rope, the uneasy old housekeeper could only order people to strengthen patrols, polish guns, and sharpen knives. Once the master gave the order, they would charge into battle.
In Qinzhong Prefecture, the long-prepared chrysanthemum viewing banquet finally began.
Qin Zhong was promoted by the poison queen of the haunted house and is a new upstart in the court. Naturally, there are many people who curry favor with others.
At the banquet, the topic of the abandoned princess naturally became the focus.
"Have you heard? The princess has been deposed."
"How could you not know about such a big thing? Alas! A princess with the surname of Wang should just be a princess. Why do you want to ascend to the throne and become the empress in one step? That's too much."
One of the sisters whispered quietly: "I was thinking that the eldest princess would become the princess consort, and we women would finally be proud of ourselves. My cousin is also eager to become a female official."
"What are you talking about? It is natural for a woman to take care of her husband and children. If she becomes an official, it is against the moral code. Which decent man would be willing to marry her?"
"That's right. Last time, my little concubine sister was tricked into going to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. It was so embarrassing."
Qin Ge, the eldest daughter of Qin Zhong, was eighteen years old. While she was inviting the girls to drink tea and listen to music, she was also listening to them gossiping.
snort! How dare a concubine's daughter covet the Duke of Zhenguo?
My father wanted me to be the second wife in the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, but the Duke of Zhenguo refused.
It is said that the two princesses love each other and will be together for the rest of their lives.
Before, the Crown Princess was Chu Jun, so she naturally couldn't compare with her, but if the Crown Princess was deposed, would they have to be a couple for the rest of their lives? Why?
Qin Ge didn't have any feelings for Su Mo at first, but she was rejected, and she was rejected as a second wife. She couldn't swallow this.
She winked at her younger sister beside her without making any expression.
The concubine sister, who always followed Ma's lead, quickly stepped forward and sneered, "Everyone only knows that the Crown Princess was deposed, but do you know why she was deposed?"
Qin Ge stood behind his concubine's sister, with a scornful smile in his eyes.
Everyone looked at the Qin sisters' expressions and glanced at each other.
Is there some hidden secret that we don't know?
"Sister Qin, your father is the prime minister of the dynasty and a popular figure around His Majesty. Does he know something about this?"
"Yes, if Sister Qin knows anything, please tell us sisters, so that we won't do anything wrong without knowing it."
Qin Ge sighed and said, "Hey! I heard that the Crown Princess actually wants to marry the Fourth Prince and the Third Prince as concubines, so His Majesty is furious and wants to depose the Crown Princess."
"Ah? This is too absurd. You are brother and sister!"
"No? How can brother and sister get married? And taking her as a concubine, isn't this a slap in the face of the two princes and the emperor? No wonder the emperor can't tolerate it and wants to abolish her."
Qin Ge looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Everyone urged again: "Anything else? Sister Qin, just tell us. We are all on your side."
Qin Ge said helplessly: "In fact, your majesty now even wants to take back the title of Princess. Unfortunately, she was indeed arrogant and domineering in the past and had made some achievements.
There was no reason, and in order to prevent the people from unrest, she was tolerated to return to live in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
The concubine said, "Your Majesty is always kind and considerate of the overall situation. But sister, since your Majesty has no idea, then we will give you one. Sister, you are so smart, you must have a way, right? The sisters are definitely willing to help your Majesty solve his problems."
If we can help His Majesty solve his problems, then aren't we heroes? Maybe it would catch His Majesty's eye.
Not to mention being awarded the title of princess or county lady for their merits, as long as they are praised by His Majesty, their marriages will be able to take a step forward.
So everyone rushed forward and quickly gathered around Qin Ge and said, "Yes, Sister Qin, if you have a solution, just tell us. As long as we can help His Majesty solve the problem, we will do our best to help him."
Qin Ge looked at everyone with relief, "Okay, everyone is a man of integrity. We women are as brave as men and can help His Majesty solve problems."
"The Crown Princess, no, the deposed Crown Princess, should never, ever desecrate the Third and Fourth Princes and take her own brother as her concubine. This is against the theory and moral principles. Let's go to the gate of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion to attack her."
Qin Ge waved his hand, and several concubines and some young ladies from low-ranking official families, holding red silk banners in their hands, marched out of the Prime Minister's Mansion and headed straight for the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
The banner read: "The eldest princess has violated the moral code, and her title is abolished."
This has been prepared long ago.
In the front was a fierce looking woman, and behind her were the wives of third-rank officials sitting in sedan chairs and carriages.
The gate of the Zhenguogong Mansion was surrounded again.
The first time was for the Duke of Zhenguo, Su Mo, and the girls did all kinds of things, embarrassing themselves.
This time it was for Song Jinxiu, the girls were well organized and the atmosphere was high.
On the roof of the main hall of the Zhenguogong Mansion, Song Jinxiu, Su Mo, the Thirty-Six Guards, and the Twelve Guards were all there to watch the fun.
Song Jinxiu looked at the colorful banners hanging high above the crowd of women shouting slogans, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Is this a demonstration?
Whose idea was this?
It's a person.
Su Mo frowned: "A bunch of restless women, how can you still laugh?"
Song Jinxiu said: "What's wrong with women? If women don't keep quiet, they will cover up half the sky."
Thirty-six Guards: If the master is 놇, it is not half the sky, but covering the sky with one hand.
Twelve Guards: This young mistress is so calm, we can't embarrass you.
So the twelve guards all had blank expressions on their faces.
The old housekeeper: "Close the gate tightly and strengthen the guard. Anyone who dares to break in will be killed...beaten out."
There was a knock at the door of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
…
In the court, the officials were divided into two groups.
One group was indignant on behalf of the Crown Princess and begged the Emperor to revoke his decision.
The Crown Princess's abilities are obvious to all, and her achievements are known to the world. To abolish the Crown Princess because of such a small matter would make the common people feel cold!
One group took the opportunity to add insult to injury. He took the opportunity to nominate the fourth prince as the crown prince.
