Chapter 467 Long Ping Hou Bui

After Princess Jinxi and Xie Fuwang's marriage was announced, the court and harem were really surprised.

One is that Princess Yun'an was still running around a few days ago, and wanted to send her only daughter to Wei He to become the Da Yan Clan. At that time, everyone thought that there was something wrong with this Highness's mind?

Regarding the relationship between their mother and daughter and Emperor Xiaozong, as for the need for Princess Jinxi to go to a foreign country to earn wealth?

It's only been a few days now, and she's actually engaged to marry the imperial concubine's nephew. This... what does the eldest princess think? ? ?

The second reason is that Wei He Zhunda'an's Xin Cheng Princess is Yun Fenghuang's niece Xie Kuo.

Princess Yun'an didn't snatch the imperial concubine, but promised her daughter to the imperial concubine's nephew. This signal made many people, especially the queen's faction, feel heavy in their hearts.

Although the Zheng family has fallen, there is only Zheng Fengli, but relying on his status as a son-in-law to protect himself. However, Princess Yun'an's status as the daughter of Xiaozong's family meant that Chunjia's lineage must treat her and her flesh and blood kindly.

Where can the queen not see such an advantage?

Even if it wasn't for the lack of friendship between herself and Princess Yun'an, the queen would have wanted to tell the third prince about Jinxi, so as to offset the disadvantage of the third prince's background.

It's just that the relationship between the empress and Yun'an hasn't reached the point of talking about these things. The key is that the children are still young, so the empress will put it aside for now. She only plans to wait for the tenth or twelve princes to enter the East Palace in the future. The status and status will inevitably rise accordingly, and when the time comes to discuss marriage, the probability of the eldest princess rejecting it will also decrease.

Who knew that Yun'an chose Xie Fuwang?

Not only that, but it was even suspected that Yun An wanted Jin Xi to do the work of the Da Yan family before.

The purpose is to help the imperial concubine get rid of other competitors.

Because although the Son of Heaven would definitely not let Jin Xi go to make a marriage, but...the identities of Yun An and Jin Xi, other people want to be this big family, they also have enough reasons to oppose and disrupt the situation, don't they?

Anyway, after this incident, everyone suspected that Yun Fenghuang and Yun An had already made an agreement in private, and they deliberately deceived others.

When Yun Fenghuang heard these rumors, she just laughed it off. She was talked about not once or twice, so she really didn't care.

Moreover, in the past, when the master of Jinxi County was in the palace, she didn't care about it. It's just that every time the royal daughters got their share, they would give Jinxi a share.

But since this is a prospective niece and daughter-in-law, and a niece and daughter-in-law who is of great benefit to the future of the nephew, it is impossible for Yun Fenghuang to maintain the previous attitude, but she asks Zhaoqing to bring people to walk around from time to time, just to observe this nearby the temperament of the child.

Of course, this is a long-term matter, not an overnight effort.

Within two days, news came from the Northland, shaking the government and the public: the new Jin Longpinghou was assassinated again on the eve of the arrival of the medicine, and when his life was dying, he returned to the light and ordered the medicine to be used on Qi Jiulu, so that he should not waste it in vain. The concubine's promise to Qi Jiulu, but other things, she couldn't say anything, so she let go!

When Chunjia heard the news, she was furious!

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were trembling, including the members of the Gu family who had just received the bad news.

This is because the second assassination was obviously the concubine of Marquis Longping.

Although Marquis Longping is not considered a woman who loves beauty according to outside rumors, after all, at this time, there are generally three wives and four concubines. In addition, his regular wife and heirs will stay in the capital as hostages. Those who need women's service.

The favored concubine who started the attack was a few years ago after Mrs. Longpinghou arranged for the past family to have a child, and the five generations have been serving the Gu family.

The reason why Mrs. Longpinghou did this was because the mother of the concubine that Gu Fangshu promised to Qi Jiulu before her death was once very favored by him. Even more praised by Gu Fangshu, Madam Longpinghou felt jealous, and decided to send a well-known concubine to serve her husband, and also to monitor her husband's back house in Beidi.

This concubine is young, beautiful, and gentle, and she is very attentive in serving the Marquis of Longping. The year before last, she gave birth to a male heir, who is very cute. The mother and son are very fond of the Marquis of Longping. It's pretty decent in front of you.

This time Long Pinghou was assassinated in the army, the Dingbei Army was naturally heavily guarded, outsiders could not even enter the barracks, let alone get close to plotting.

But concubines and concubines are extremely weak, and the future of both mother and son rests with Marquis Longping, and the background is the Gu family who gave birth to a son and the mistress' confidant, who would doubt her?

Coupled with the fact that Marquis Longping needed close care while in a coma, everyone felt that the servants in the concubine's room were more reliable than the clumsy personal guards in the military camp... Who knew that this concubine's room was also a spy?

What angered the court the most was that the concubine committed suicide on the spot after the assassination, without a word of confession!

As for Mrs. Longpinghou, she fainted immediately when she heard the news. After she was woken up, she couldn't provide any clues at all. After thinking about it, she is Gu Fangshu's main wife. Even if she has been separated from her husband for many years, even if she is jealous The concubines in the land don't talk about feelings, but about interests. Gu Fangshu's death, what good will it do for her and her children?

Mrs. Longping Hou was absolutely determined not to intentionally murder her husband, and Dingbei Army had this consideration in order to get the concubine. And Madam Longpinghou, if she sensed that there was something wrong with the concubine's room, would she still send her to the north to serve Gu Fangshu?

Not to mention how chaotic the Gu family is, this is not a trivial matter for the court.

Not only because of Gu Fangshu's identity, the impact caused by successive assassinations, but also because of who is tirelessly killing him? !

"...Marquis Longping, let's just say to the outside world that after the previous assassination, he died of serious injuries." After Chunjia's seizure, he took a few deep breaths to stabilize his emotions, and said in a cold voice, "As for the truth, order the Imperial City Secretary to investigate thoroughly! If there is no definite news within a month, the envoy of the imperial city will come to see you!"

Today's court meeting ended in an extremely heavy atmosphere.

In the harem, Huanhua Palace, Yun Fenghuang slowly let out a breath, thanking the loving mother Empress Dowager in his heart for the first time in his life.

Yes, the former rulers and ministers were still at a loss as to who instigated the sudden appearance of the concubine's room, but Yun Fenghuang felt that most likely it was the Queen Mother Yuan's handwriting.

She originally thought that the Empress Dowager Yuan would start with the Chao family, but...

Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager, or Uncle Xingning's Mansion, hid it deeper than she imagined.

But after careful consideration, this is also a reasonable thing. The queen mother is not stupid, and the emperor is not stupid. It is not good for the ministers to reach their current status. Since the Empress Dowager Yuan dared to kill Gu Fangshu, she must be quite sure that she would not be found out.

"Next, I'm afraid that the empress dowager is going to shift the truth of Gu Fangshu's death to this palace?" Yun Fenghuang's eyes flickered, and he muttered, "It's just about the concubine's room. This palace didn't realize it in advance, and His Majesty is not the master who follows others' opinions, but how can she achieve her goal?"

After thinking about it for a while, Yun Fenghuang put the matter aside for the time being, and ordered his confidantes to eliminate the whole series of things including Patriarch Qi's threats and news delivery.

Otherwise, as long as Chunjia knows that the Patriarch of the Qi family threatened her because of Qi Jiulu, and now that Gu Fangshu is dead, and the drug Yin belongs to Qi Jiulu alone, what will the emperor think?

In the next few days, the imperial concubine pretended to be ignorant, and only greeted Chunjia who was in a rage, as if her mind was all on taking care of the emperor's heirs.

Because the former court could not disclose the real cause of Gu Fangshu's death, after some private discussions, the eldest son was appointed as the Boss of Longping, and went to the north to help the spirit.

Mrs. Gu aged a lot all of a sudden, and even when he was in a trance, he fell because of a trance, as if it was not serious, Chunjia specially arranged for the imperial physician to come and make a diagnosis... These news spread one after another, Yun Fenghuang He said: "It's really pitiful. I didn't expect that the war is over, and there are such things. Alas, the empress is also suffering."

But my heart is very happy.

It was a joy to think that when the entire family of the Xie family was killed, the Gu family was gearing up for the upcoming battle and the military achievements behind the battle.

Now it's finally Gu's turn to feel such grief, in Yun Fenghuang's view, this is not enough at all.

The Gu family just lost a Gu Fangshu now, even if it was a pillar, why should it be compared with the Xie family's hundreds of lives? !

Under the banner of caring for the queen, she went to Chongchang Palace to "visit" Gu Zhen again and again, and every time she picked up words that seemed to be caring but actually stabbed a knife, so that Gu Zhen was just a little frustrated at first, and was treated like this by her. After a few times of heartache, I actually fell ill.

However, Yun Fenghuang still went to Chunjia to ask for credit as usual. The implication was that if she hadn't walked around frequently and persuaded her in place, the queen might not be able to hold on at the moment.

During this period of time, Chunjia was concentrating on government affairs, and ignored the harem at all. Even knowing that Jin Xi and Xie Fu had forgotten their engagement, she just asked Yan Yin to arrange a congratulatory gift. , don't look at the usual signs of disagreement with the queen, but at the critical moment, I still feel very sorry for the queen.

When Gu Zhen found out about it, his heart blew up.

She still persuaded her with tears from left to right: "My lady, the imperial concubine is clearly going to make trouble, I wish you could get angry! You can't fulfill her wish! Even though Lord Marquis is gone, uncle is still there, The Gu family is still here. Your majesty has not shaken your position so far, so how can you fulfill the wish of the imperial concubine?!"

The queen just raised a little heart to heal her illness.

As a result, Yun Fenghuang saw this situation, and made another plan when one plan failed. He turned his head and brought the words to the queen's ears, saying that the third prince and the tenth prince were all wolf-hearted: "At the beginning, the imperial concubine was deeply saddened by Xie's matter, His Royal Highnesses, King Qin, were in such a hurry that their studies have plummeted since then, because they were all focused on the imperial concubine. Now that the empress is sick, and Marquis Longping is newly mourned, the third and tenth princes still talk and behave As usual, the schoolwork is not affected at all, it can be seen that in the hearts of these two Highnesses, the empress is not the mother of the mother after all. Even Marquis Longping has nothing to do with them, and he doesn't even know how to mourn!"

"I don't know if it's because the two His Highnesses are cold-hearted by nature, or because the Empress only treats them with a good-looking face and doesn't care about them in private, so that the relationship between mother and child is estranged?"
