Chapter 864: Borrowing a Knife
Spring is the season when all things wake up, and it is also the season when children are most likely to catch cold and catch cold.
"Ah..." After sneezing, Brother Rui hurriedly wiped his nose with a handkerchief.
Brother Yu was sitting on a chair and said sleepily: "I don't know when it will be better?" Brother Xuan was the first to catch the cold, and then it was passed on to Brother Hao and Rui.
Brother Rui just wanted to speak, but couldn't help but sneezed again. While wiping his nose, he said, "It will be fine soon."
Brother Xuan lay on the bed and said in a low voice: "Second Brother, Ah You, I'm sorry, I'm the one who caused this." The triplets, counting his health is the worst.
Brother Rui said: "This illness can't be controlled, how can I blame you!"
After a while, Mother Rong came over with a bowl of medicine each. The triplets frowned when they saw the medicine, but no one dared to shirk it, so they all took it and drank it.
Mother Rong said to Brother Rui: "Second Young Master, if you are not feeling well, just lie down on the bed and rest!"
Brother Rui is more obedient, he climbed into bed after listening to what Rong's mother said. Brother Yu is not sleepy, he doesn't want to go to bed.
Qin's mother, who was taking care of Brother Xuan, said upon seeing this: "Fourth Young Master, the concubine is still angry. If she knows that you are disobedient, she will be even more angry." Contagion, the two of them are not allowed to get close to brother Xuan, but unfortunately they don't listen. As a result, both of them were infected.
Brother Yu said: "When will the mother calm down? The mother has ignored us for two days." From yesterday morning to now, Yuxi has not appeared. In fact, Yuxi came to see the triplets when they were asleep.
Qin's mother said: "When you recover from illness, the concubine's anger will naturally disappear."
Brother Yu drooped his head, then climbed onto the bed.
Hearing that the triplets were asleep, Yu Xi said: "When they get better this time, let them live separately." The triplets are already eight years old, so it's not suitable to live together anymore, it's time to get up independently.
Sister Quan said with a smile: "Second Young Master and the others are both eight years old, they should live separately. Besides, the matter of accompanying them should be put on the agenda."
Yu Xi smiled and said: "We'll talk about this matter when the prince comes back." This companion reader must be carefully selected, so she doesn't have the time to do this now.
Back in the front yard in the afternoon, Yu Xi heard the news that A Bao had been poisoned. Yu Xi asked: "Why is it Yan Hengyu who was poisoned, not Han Yuchen?" As Yu Chen guessed, the poisoned tea time was indeed Yu Xi's handwriting. Of course, Yuxi just let Falcon take the opportunity to get rid of Han Yuchen, as for the poisoning and assassination, she didn't care.
Yu Zhi also felt that Han Yuchen was very lucky: "Yan Hengyu drank that cup of poisoned tea, and she only drank one sip, so there is no danger to her life."
I don't know if it's luck or misfortune to let my daughter stand in the way. Yuxi asked: "How many people did we lose this time?"
Yu Zhi felt that this was rather lucky: "Yan Wushuang thought it was just jealousy among women, so he didn't check again when he came to Zhao Guiyuan. So this time, we have nothing to lose." Some people folded in.
Yuxi shook her head and said: "We still have to make them be careful, and not take chances." Those who do this business will be exposed if they are a little careless. At that time, not only will he die, but other people will also be implicated.
Yu Zhidao: "It's a matter of life and death, no one dares to be careless." Those who do this business not only have to have a good heart, but also have to be very cautious in their actions.
After hearing this, Yuxi fell into deep thought. After a long time, Yuxi said: "I remember, besides Han Yuchen, there is also Xiang Zhaoyi who is also very favored."
Yu Zhi nodded and said: "Second only to Han Yuchen, even Yan Wushuang's son is very fond of him." But he is slightly inferior to Ah Bao and Ah Chi.
After a pause, Yu Zhi said: "I heard that Xiang Zhaoyi looks very much like the late Jingxian Empress Bai. As for whether it is true, I don't know."
Yuxi smiled and said: "If it's true, it would be interesting." The Empress Jingxian who Yan Wushuang pursued is still a mystery, and no one knows her life. Yuxi also sent someone to investigate, but found nothing, so only Yan Wushuang knew the details of the Bai family.
Yu Zhi asked: "Princess, what should we do now?" The Shi Ziye had to avenge his revenge, but he couldn't put their people in danger anymore. Several major actions in succession caused serious damage to their organization, many people died, and there were not many left.
Yu Xi didn't give an immediate answer, but said: "I have to think about this matter carefully." If she fails this time, she will be very passive if she tries again. Although she wanted to take revenge, she didn't want to fight head-on. Yuchen and her sons and daughters were tightly protected, and it would be too costly to get rid of them. Yuxi was not willing to exchange the nails buried in the palace for Han Yuchen's life.
Yuxi had learned about the battle in the inner house, but she had never used it and had little practical experience, so she found Aunt Quan and told her what she thought.
When Mammy Quan heard that Yuxi wanted to borrow Xiang Zhaoyi's hand from Han Yuchen, she said, "It's a good idea, but Han Yuchen's ability to suppress Xiang Zhaoyi for so long is probably not just because of Han Yuchen's skill. This Xiangshi is probably not a smart person." .”
Yuxi hummed and said: "It doesn't matter if Xiangshi is not smart or skillful, this can be made up the day after tomorrow." It is enough to arrange for Xiangshi to be a smart and resourceful nanny.
After thinking about it for a while, Quan Momo asked Yu Xi: "Are you only going to attack Han Yuchen?"
Yuxi was silent for a while and said: "It may be that I have become a mother myself, so I can't do anything to those two children." She didn't stop Yunqing from killing the two children, but it didn't mean she was able to do so .
It was also at this time that Yuxi had to admit that in some respects she was not as decisive as Yunqing.
Sister Quan nodded slightly and said, "Yuxi, I am very pleased that you can keep your heart." Not being blinded by hatred, being able to temporarily give up one's hatred for the safety of subordinates is not something everyone can do.
Yuxi asked: "Don't you think I am a woman's benevolence?" She felt that her intolerance was a bit ridiculous. When Han Yuchen attacked Ah Hao, he didn't have the slightest bit of resentment.
Sister Quan shook her head and said, "No. Only those who can keep their hearts can live well. On the contrary, such a person will live like a walking corpse." Like Han Yuchen, even if she is a noble concubine now and has a pair of children under her knees, she will never be able to live. to happiness.
Yuxi thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to tell Brother Hao about it, and also explained why she didn't attack Han Yuchen, mother and son for the time being.
After talking about this, Yu Xi touched Brother Hao's head and said: "This is what mother thinks, but if Ah Hao wants them to die, mother will respect your opinion." No mercy, so Yuxi didn't think there was anything wrong with telling Brother Hao about it.
Brother Hao was a little surprised, and asked: "Mother said that it was not Yan Wushuang who attacked me, but the third aunt? And it was to avenge Zhou Yan?" He always thought it was Yan Wushuang who did it.
Yuxi nodded and said: "I didn't expect it without talking about you."
Brother Hao said disdainfully: "If she really has Zhou Yan in her heart, she won't let Zhou Yan live in embarrassment and humiliation. To avenge Zhou Yan is just to seek peace of mind." Zhou Yan met such a relative Mother, it is his misfortune.
Yuxi said: "I don't regret what happened to Zhou Yan. I just didn't expect it to implicate you." Yuxi also knew that Zhou Yan was forced, but since he helped Yan Wushuang, he should bear the revelation as a result of.
Brother Hao said with a smile: "Mother, you don't have to be sad, let alone feel guilty. This may be a catastrophe that your son deserves. Besides, it doesn't matter if you have smallpox, I won't have to be afraid of it in the future." Say no to hate It's impossible, he still has lingering fears when he thinks about the kind of torture that would make life worse than death. But Brother Hao knew that his mother had suffered no less than him, so he said this for the sake of the overall situation and to make her feel at ease. It didn't mean that he didn't want revenge.
Yuxi stroked Brother Hao's head and said: "It's good that you can think like this. A person's life cannot be smooth sailing, especially your identity is doomed to intrigue and intrigue, but you must keep your heart. Otherwise, It's easy to lose yourself."
Brother Hao hummed, and said, "Mother, you're right. However, if the grass doesn't get rid of the roots, it will grow again. Mother, I won't allow this to happen."
Yuxi nodded and said: "Don't worry, mother will not allow this to happen." She never thought of letting Yan Hengli and Yan Hengyu go, but she didn't want to get rid of them with despicable methods like Yuchen . When Yan Wushuang is defeated, she will not let A Bao and A Chi go.
Brother Hao hummed, and then said with a smile: "Mother, I went to see Ah Rui and the others just now, and they all knew they were wrong, mother, don't be angry." Whether he heard it or not, he was afraid that Brother Rui and the three of them would have ideas. It's just that it can't be said directly.
Yu Xi said with a sullen face: "I know I'm wrong? I said that day that I wouldn't let them approach me, saying that I would get sick? As a result, they followed suit. If they don't teach them enough lessons this time, they will do it again in the future."
Brother Hao was a little surprised and said: "Mother still wants to punish them?"
Yuxi hummed and said, "We'll talk about it when they recover from illness." But it's been cold for two days, so it's time to visit.
The triplets were very happy to see Yuxi appearing. Brother You was so happy that he got up from the bed, he just wanted to hug Yuxi, but he quickly retreated thinking that he was still sick.
Seeing this, Yuxi's heart softened, she stepped forward and touched Brother Yu's head and asked, "Is it better?"
Brother You shook his head and said, "It's not very good. After taking medicine for two days, they still haven't recovered." Before they were infected with wind and cold, they took two medicines and they were fine, but this time they still haven't recovered after two days.
Yuxi said with relief: "It's not so easy to get wind and cold in spring." Several mothers took good care of the triplets, but there are some things that cannot be prevented. Brother Xuan took off his clothes during the exercise, but he didn't put on his clothes in time after the exercise, and he caught cold as a result.
The triplets all looked depressed when they heard this. But when they recover from their illness, they will find out that they are still ill! It's okay to be punished for copying scriptures, but the three of them are actually asked to live separately.
Brother Yu approached Brother Hao to intercede: "Brother, can you help us intercede in front of mother? I don't want to live separately from my second brother and my third brother." It would be nice for the three brothers to live together.
Brother Hao didn't agree: "The courtyards of the three of you are all next to each other, you can hear anything if you scream, except that you can't sleep in the same room, everything else is the same." There is no room for the maids and women.
Seeing this situation, Brother Yu asked: "Does this mean that mother will not change her mind?" Seeing Brother Hao nodding, Brother Yu looked depressed.
A few days later, Falcon received a secret letter from Yuxi. Seeing Yuxi's letter telling them not to do it themselves, but they can use Xiang Zhaoyi's hand to deal with Han Yuchen.
Chi Ying said with some surprise: "Princess, is this asking us to borrow a knife to kill someone?"
Seeing that Falcon looked a little embarrassed, Chi Ying asked a little strangely: "Boss, what's the matter? Don't you think the princess' decision is not good?" He thought it was quite good. They don't need their people to take action, so that even if something happens to them, their people won't get involved.
Falcon shook his head and said: "No. The princess said in the letter that she wanted to preserve her strength, and it was not appropriate to deal with Yan Hengli and Yan Hengyu for the time being. But the prince ordered to get rid of Yan Hengli and Yan Hengyu before." It was really embarrassing for him to receive two completely different orders, and he didn't know who to listen to.
Chi Ying smiled and said: "Boss, what is there to be entangled with, even the prince has to listen to the princess, so naturally the princess' orders are the main ones."
Falcon glanced at Chiying, and said: "We still have to tell the prince about this matter." In fact, he also agrees with Chiying's words in his heart, but there is no big mistake in being careful.
More than a month has passed, and the Zhanghua Palace is calm. But the more this happened, the more restless Yuchen became, as if it was the calm before the storm.
Nanny Gui brought a cup of ginseng tea to Yuchen, seeing that Yuchen didn't want to drink any more after taking a sip, she immediately persuaded: "Madam, it's useless to worry, the soldiers will cover you with water and earth." During this time, Yuchen couldn't eat. I couldn't sleep well, and lost weight quickly.
Yuchen smiled wryly and said: "But I can't control myself. These days, I always dream of being stabbed to death by Yuxi's sword." Such nightmares made her even more restless.
Nanny Gui picked up the ginseng tea and handed it to Yuchen, and said, "Your Majesty is thinking about it every day and dreaming about it at night. In fact, things are not as bad as your Majesty thinks. As long as we take precautions, she won't harm your Majesty. "
Yuchen didn't have any appetite, but looking at Nanny Gui's pleading eyes, he could only finish the ginseng tea: "I'm not afraid of death, but I'm afraid that something bad will happen to Abao and Achi after death." She was so wary, In the end, Achi was still caught in the dark. If she is gone, it is impossible to imagine what will happen.
Nanny Gui took the silver cup and said, "Then you should take care of yourself even more. Madam, look in the mirror and see how thin you are. If you continue like this, how will your body be able to stand it?" Yuchen looked delicate. , In fact, the foundation is very good.
Why doesn't Yuchen know this truth, it's just that there are some things that she can't control. Speaking of which, she is already trying her best to adjust herself.
Nanny Gui thought for a while, and thought it would be better to change the subject and said, "Ma'am, Xiang Zhaoyi has recruited a nanny surnamed Gao."
It is definitely not a simple person who can make Nanny Gui specifically mention it. Yuchen cheered up and asked, "What's the background of this man?"
Gui Momo said: "This Gao Momo has been working as an errand in the department for more than 20 years. I checked, and this person was an unknown person in the department before." people, so they survived. Nine times out of ten, those who are a little bit too pretentious are dead.
Sizhifang is a department responsible for the clothing of the harem.
Yuchen frowned. How many of them were idlers who could live from the previous dynasty to the present: "Is there anyone else in this family? And why did Xiang Zhaoyi take a fancy to him?"
Sister Quan said: "I heard that the embroidery is very good, and Xiang Zhaoyi accidentally saw it, so Xiang Zhaoyi asked her to go to Roufu Palace." Although Yuchen was in charge of the affairs of the harem, Xiang Zhaoyi Zhaoyi wanted an old maid, and the eunuch in charge couldn't possibly offend her for such a trivial matter, so he gave her face.
Yuchen is skeptical about everything now: "It's such a coincidence that people should keep an eye on this high nanny." (To be continued)
