Chapter 205
Yun Dai smiled and said, "The Gu family has already removed me from the genealogy, so I still have to visit my relatives? What kind of relatives do the Gu family count as my relatives?"
Zhao Yuanjing put down the medicine bowl, and said seriously: "Actually, I have wanted to talk to you about this for a long time."
"Please speak, Your Highness."
"Come and sit down." Zhao Yuanjing hooked his fingers, "You are my side concubine, so you don't have to be so reserved when you come to my place. Sit down when you want to drink tea, and the snacks are all fresh."
After Yun Dai thanked her, she sat on the chair opposite him.
Seeing that she didn't sit beside him, Zhao Yuanjing didn't force her, and said, "About the Gu family... You just gave birth to Yan'er back then, and they threw you into the pool and threw Yan'er to death. You don't have any resentment?"
Yun Dai said: "If you say there is nothing, it is impossible."
She is not the original owner and has no feelings for the Gu family. If you only look at it as a stranger, there is no resentment.
What's more, she has already drawn a clear line with the Gu family.
I don't want to mess with it anymore.
But Zhao Yuanjing didn't think so.
He said: "The nobles in the palace, although they pay attention to family status, family background, and relatives. Although the Gu family is not considered a family, it can be regarded as a scholarly and noble family. If you have a mother, you will be born. If you don't, you will inevitably be criticized. , not only bad for you, but also bad for Yan Er."
Apart from their own excellence, most of the contests between the princes are related to the mother clan.
If the mother was born noble or powerful, their status would be correspondingly higher, and they would receive more attention and better treatment.
These are very real problems.
Zhao Yuanjing said: "The reason why I can be the crown prince is because I am the only legitimate son of the Empress Yuan. You know my elder brother, his mother was born as a court lady. Even though he is the eldest son of the emperor, he has never been valued by the queen mother and the emperor. The branch office has gone out, and it has not yet been crowned king. In fact, the eldest brother is very capable, so what? If you have a bad background, everything will be bad."
It's not fair, but that's the reality.
Yun Dai naturally understands this truth.
Seeing her thoughtful, Zhao Yuanjing continued, "If you are a person, with your temperament, it's fine to ignore the Gu family. But you have Yan'er, so you have to think about his future."
"In Yan'er's future, you can't live a relaxed life and have to fight for it?"
"Yun Dai, I understand what you mean. But, do you know what Yan'er wants when he grows up?" Zhao Yuanjing said calmly, "If what Yan'er wants is not idleness and wealth? What do you want? If he is good, you also need to know what he thinks in his heart, what you give may not be what he wants."
Yun Dai glanced at him: "Your Highness brought Yan'er into the palace, did you ever ask him what he meant?"
Zhao Yuanjing was at a loss for words.
After being silent for a while, he said: "I don't think I made the choice for him. He is of royal blood and should come back. But what he can do in the future depends on your choice. You don't want Yan'er to hate you in the future, either. Can't you give him a clear background?"
Yun Dai pondered for a moment, then said: "I can go back for Yan'er, but the Gu family..."
Zhao Yuanjing pursed her lips and smiled: "I can accompany you back. If I don't go, how can I relieve Yan'er of this anger."
Yun Dai was surprised: "Isn't this in compliance with the rules?"
"Rules, aren't they made by people? Besides, it's not a big deal. I also often go out of the palace to walk around the courtier's house."
So it was settled.
Although she is a concubine of the Crown Princess, she still has to go through a lot of procedures when going out of the palace to visit relatives.
By the day of the actual departure, the Gu family had already been forced by the Duke's mansion to jump into the river.
