Zheng Xiu was a little confused by what she heard, so she stopped him and asked, "So, your uncle thought your cousin was dead, so he married the princess in accordance with the emperor's order. A few years later, your cousin was found again, and they got together again, and then gave birth to Shao?"
Xue Zhi nodded, "It's a little complicated, but that's what happened. My mother went through ups and downs several times, and finally she really didn't care about the world. I'm always uneasy about her illness now."
Zheng Xiu pondered for a moment and sorted out the relationships in the Duke of Qing's Mansion. She had heard Xue Zhi say that Xue Shao was the illegitimate child of the Duke of Qing and another woman, so she felt sorry for Princess Guihe and labeled the Duke of Qing a 'scumbag'. But listening to Xue Zhi's words, it seems that the Duke of Qing originally loved his cousin, and thought that he was dead, so he was at ease to marry Princess Guihe. After the cousin's "resurrection", their old love rekindled, and Xue Shao was born.
Although it was the Duke of Qing who was wrong in the end, he didn't seem to be as bad as she thought before.
In the end, we can only blame the old Duke of Qing. If he hadn't forced them to break up at the beginning, there wouldn't be so many things later.
That wrong marriage was undoubtedly the misfortune of Princess Guihe, the Duke of Qing and Xue Shao's mother.
But if you look deeper, it seems that the Queen Mother is the mastermind behind the scenes. She wanted to marry Princess Guihe to a nobleman with a high status but no real power, so she chose the Duke of Qing's Mansion and reached an agreement with the old Duke of Qing, which led to all the things that happened later. If you put yourself in the position of the old Duke of Qing, you will realize that he is seriously ill and cannot protect his wife and children. His two sons have not yet started a family, and the future of the family is worrying. At this time, the Queen Mother extended an olive branch, perhaps under coercion and inducement, so he naturally had to agree.
Don't say that Zheng Xiu thought a lot, it's really the only way to explain it. Otherwise, why didn't the old Duke of Qing say that he would separate this cousin from his son in the early years, but changed his mind when he led the marriage proposal. No wonder the old lady blamed him.
The two were silent for a moment, and Zheng Xiu spoke up, "If you are worried, let the doctor keep an eye on her from time to time and visit her more often every day."
Xue Zhi sighed helplessly, "What's the use of our enthusiasm? I'm just afraid that she won't be happy."
Unhappy? Unhappy about what?
Unhappy to live, wanting to die.
Zheng Xiu paused for a moment before she understood. She didn't know what to say for a moment, so she could only comfort her: "The prince has just married, maybe Hanyu will give birth to a great-grandson, and the old lady will be fine?"
"I hope so." Xue Zhi said helplessly.
The New Year is approaching, and every household is busy.
On the third day after Xue Qin and Wang Hanyu got married, Xue Qin accompanied Wang Hanyu back to the Xinyang Marquis's mansion.
The two had a harmonious relationship, and when their eyes met from time to time, Wang Hanyu would blush and lower her head shyly.
The wife of the Xinyang Marquis saw it and was happy in her heart.
The Xinyang Marquis invited Xue Qin to the front yard for a drink, and the Xinyang Marquis's wife and the Xin Wang's Crown Prince's wife pulled Wang Hanyu into the inner room.
The news that Wang Hanyu was disturbed in her bridal chamber and cried on her wedding day had spread, but she was worried about upsetting the wife of the Marquis of Xinyang and the Crown Prince of Xin.
When the two asked her about it, Wang Hanyu said with a little embarrassment: "It's nothing. I was tired after a day and missed home, so I was holding back my tears."
The Marquis of Xinyang took her to look at her. Seeing that her face was rosy and she didn't look like she was in trouble, she was relieved and said: "I'm glad you're fine. It's because your parents came back early that day, otherwise they would definitely not let you suffer such an injustice for no reason!"
The Marquis of Xinyang took care of everything personally before the wedding. She cried for a long time that morning. After lunch, she felt dizzy. She was afraid of being rude at her daughter's wedding banquet, so she left early accompanied by the Crown Prince of Xin. The Marquis of Xinyang was worried about his wife, so he waited until Xue Qin entered the bridal chamber, and then he left with some elders. In fact, the Marquis of Xinyang did not leave early, because the wedding banquet was supposed to end when the groom entered the bridal chamber. Generally, those who stayed behind wanted to join in the fun in the bridal chamber, or were too drunk to leave the table.
"Mom, are you okay? I heard that you and your elder sister left in the afternoon, and your daughter was also very worried."
"Mom is fine," Xinyang Marquis's wife took her hand and smiled, "Mom has an old illness. When she is tired, she easily gets a headache. She rested at home these two days and took some medicine. She is already fine."
Xin Wang's prince's wife couldn't help but said distressedly: "Mom should pay more attention to her body and don't do everything by yourself. You have done all the things, why do you still support those people?"
Wang Hanyu also agreed and helped her elder sister to persuade.
Xinyang Marquis's wife smiled and shook her head, "Okay, I won't do it in the future. Mom only has you two daughters, both of them are married, and there is nothing worth being busy about anymore." She gave birth to two sons and two daughters. The youngest Wang Hanyu is married, and she can really rest assured to recuperate.
The three of them naturally had a lot to talk about. Lady Xinyang asked about Wang Hanyu's daily life in the mansion of Duke Qing.
Wang Hanyu said, "Don't worry, mother. With Mo Yun and Bi Tao here, they will naturally take good care of me."
Lady Xinyang touched her face lovingly, "It's good to be at home for a thousand days, but it's hard to be away from home for a day. Mother is also worried that you are not used to it after just marrying into someone else's family. How does Princess Guihe treat you? Does she make things difficult for you?"
Wang Hanyu lowered her eyes, not knowing how to answer for a moment. Princess Guihe's good words to her definitely don't count. If she doesn't, that doesn't count either. Other mothers-in-law have to visit their daughters-in-law every morning and evening. The more powerful mothers-in-law will even nag and harass their daughters-in-law who have just entered the house, but Princess Guihe not only exempted her from visiting her every morning and evening, but also asked her to go there less often and just live her own life in Xiyayuan.
Seeing her in such a dilemma, the Consort of Prince Xin said, "Just tell me, mother and sister are here, they will help you find a solution."
Wang Hanyu said, "The princess...didn't make things difficult for me. But she was very cold, and seemed reluctant to see me."
The wife of the Marquis of Xinyang and the Consort of Prince Xin were both hung up by her silence, and now they breathed a sigh of relief. Princess Guihe had a fiery temper, and as long as she didn't make things difficult for others, she could get by.
However, the wife of the Marquis of Xinyang still felt sorry for her little daughter, so she pulled her aside and told her, "The princess is now dissatisfied with the queen mother, not you. You should be more tolerant and bear it. When you give birth to a boy, the princess' attitude towards you will naturally be very different."
