Chapter 247: Cancellation
Yun Fenghuang sent the Empress Dowager back to her residence, and rushed back to the Xingxin Hall again. At this time, the emperor had not yet woken up, and the loving mother Empress Dowager visited for a while, but she had already left.
"If the empress is tired, go and rest." Jiang Lan and Ning Guogong were still guarding Chunjia's inner and outer rooms. Jiang Lan lowered his eyebrows and said pleasantly, "This servant will take good care of your majesty."
Compared to a long while ago, Yun Fenghuang felt more at ease at this moment.
It's not anything else, but knowing that the source of the signs of chaos in the front and rear palaces these days is because of the love of the wife of the late Emperor Shenzong. Now that the Empress Dowager is on Chunjia's side, these troubles will surely subside gradually.
She made up her mind and said: "So, there is Mr. Lao."
It's not that Yun Fenghuang doesn't want to stay here to guard Chunjia, but now that the emperor is unconscious, as a queen, she still has many things waiting for her.
Not to mention Jing Jieyu's previous actions, and the funerals of many concubines and palace people who died at the banquet, but the death of the crown prince must be dealt with one or two.
After explaining a few words to Jiang Lan, he was about to turn around and leave, but Ning Guogong hesitated for a while, but caught up with him and clasped his fists and said, "Is it convenient for you to go to the front line?"
"What is the meaning of this, Duke?" Yun Fenghuang was a little surprised.
Ning Guogong hesitated to speak, and finally said: "Just now, the emperor's heirs were ordered by the empress to flee for their lives. Some people were injured and even died to save the emperor's heirs. Now they..."
"I know." Yun Fenghuang thought that he wanted to ask for some compensation for his subordinates. Although there are a lot of things in the mind at the moment, he didn't care about one more thing, so he said immediately, "Thank you for reminding me, Duke, This palace should personally thank all the soldiers!"
She asked Mr. Ning Guo about the location, it was the front hall, which was usually used for banquets and games, but now it was temporarily vacated as a place to stop the coffin.
After leaving the Xingxintang, the left and right were not too happy for her to go there to make trouble: "Why don't you go as a servant? The empress is rich, how can I go to those places?"
"Presumptuous!" Yun Fenghuang frowned, "I personally agreed to Ning Guogong, and besides, no matter which emperor's heir they rescued, as the aunt, I should come forward to thank you in person, how can I allow you to intercept it?"
The eyelids of these palace people are still a little shallow, of course, it may be because they are concerned about it.
Don't even think about it, since the crown prince died today, the crown prince will always be re-appointed next.
As a queen, she doesn't use her presence everywhere to win people's hearts. Could it be that she is virtuous in the harem?
Compared with the position of Qingci Palace, mere bad luck is nothing!
So she came to the front in a phoenix chariot, and when she came down, she heard the sound of suppressed crying from the hall.
Yun Fenghuang was also a little sad in his heart, he stood at the spot, adjusted his expression to solemn and mournful, and then walked in.
When I entered, I saw corpses covered with quilts all over the floor. Among them, the one closest to the door was an old man in armor with his back to the door, hugging him and weeping in mourning. The sideburns are especially sympathetic.
Yun Fenghuang then stepped forward and said softly: "This..."
"Empress!" She had just approached, and the old man noticed it, wiped his face fiercely, put down the corpse in his arms, raised his red eyes and looked at her, "It turns out that the empress is here!"
"Yes, I'm here." Only now did Yun Fenghuang see clearly that this was Duke Yi, so who was he holding?
His eyes quickly swept away, and the face of the young man lying on the ground, whose face was already green, was indeed Yun Qike!
What happened to the son of Duke Yi? !
Yun Fenghuang was startled, and then looked at Yi Guogong's eyes that were about to bleed, she looked at the door calmly, but her mouth forced herself to be calm, and said, "I heard that all the soldiers fought bloody battles for the royal family, unfortunately died ,I……"
"My son, Xike, might not have died." Yi Guogong looked at her straight, and suddenly interrupted, "Because seeing that His Royal Highness King Jin was intercepted by the enemy, he wanted to assassinate him under the sword. Treat each other... this is your death!" While speaking, he suddenly tore off the skirt of Yun Qike's clothes, revealing the hideous wound on his chest.
People are dead, blood has clotted.
Against the horror of the wound, it is shocking to look at.
Simply Yun Fenghuang was not an ordinary woman, instead of being frightened, she quickly revealed a sad look, and said sadly: "My son..."
Before she could say something high-sounding, Yi Guogong interrupted her again, and said in a deep voice: "Back then my family murdered the empress first, and now my son pays back with his life. Can the grievances between you and me be wiped out?" ?!"
"..." Yun Fenghuang was silent for a short while, mainly to analyze the possibility of the other party's sudden attack. After a while, she said calmly, "Yes, the grievances between Bengong and Yun's will be written off from now on!"
"Okay!" Yi Guogong laughed bitterly, and he said repeatedly, "Okay! Good! Good!!!"
Immediately after the laughter stopped, he shouted, "Tomorrow, I will open the ancestral hall and remove the name taboo of the empress, and ask the empress to return to the clan and belong to the surname Xie. From now on, I will have nothing to do with the Yun family!"
After he said this, without another word, he leaned over and hugged Yun Qike, sobbing, "Don't think about the past anymore, Xike, the grievances are over, as a father... I will take you home now!"
Yun Fenghuang stood at the same spot, watching the father and son leave for a long time, then looked away without saying a word, pulled himself together, calmed the rest, and then returned to Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion, the master and servant were silent.
It's almost time to arrive at Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion, but Chie plucked up the courage and persuaded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, don't argue with Duke Yi..."
"Of course I won't care about him." Yun Fenghuang smiled wryly, shook his head and said, "It's just that I suddenly feel that...it's so boring to be kind and resentful."
Having said that, after entering the Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion, she immediately ordered her subordinates to find Jing Jieyu. If she wanted to see a dead body, no one could cheat her without paying the price!
Yun Qike didn't intend to sacrifice his life back then, so what is Jiang Mingdan?
It's just that the palace servants went there once, and came back soon to report, saying: "Jing Jieyu has been found, but it was found in the lake. Now that she has no breath, and is pickled, I dare not bring something that will pollute your mother." Eye."
Both Yun Fenghuang and the servants were surprised: "She would throw herself into the lake? How is this possible!"
Wasn't the reason why Jing Jieyu took the lead at that time because she was afraid of death?
Such a person who is afraid of death, even if he knows that being found by the queen will not have a good result, how can he have the courage to seek his own death?
"If you go back to the empress, it was the concubine who drowned him just after she found someone." The palace man hesitated to speak, but another person came in from outside and said softly, "I ask the empress to punish you for making unsolicited opinions!"
Yun Fenghuang frowned, looked at Yi Xingen: "You?"
The servants were also surprised, after all, this Yi Shi has always been respectful and sensible, and has never acted like this.
They immediately became vigilant!
On the other hand, Yun Fenghuang thought for a while, stretched his brows, and said, "You are also from the Empress Dowager?"
"Returning to your empress, I was adopted by my adoptive parents when I was young, and I have always been told to pay attention to the empress dowager after entering the palace." Yi Xingen said apologetically, "It's just that my empress hasn't done anything to the empress dowager these years. In this way, the concubine will serve you all the time."
Yun Fenghuang said with a half smile but not a smile: "The meaning of this is that if I do something to the Empress Dowager, you will not be able to serve me well, but you will have to deal with me?"
Yi Xingen smiled and said nothing, obviously acquiescing.
The empress wasn't angry with her either, after all, she was the one left behind by Shenzong to ensure that the Empress Dowager would go well in her later years, and if the empress didn't want to turn against the Empress Dowager, of course she wouldn't do anything to her.
Besides, she is still very satisfied with Yi Xingen's performance over the years, besides, she has never doubted Yi Xingen before, and now Yi Xingen self-reported her identity... the intention is self-evident.
So he didn't take it seriously, and said leisurely: "You belong to the Empress Dowager... Then your brother, is it possible that he is also?"
"Brother and Mr. Deng are actually prepared by the Empress Dowager for Your Majesty, but they may not know about it themselves, but the Empress Dowager secretly arranged for them to have an opportunity to communicate with Your Majesty." Like Dou Zi, he said simply, "If Your Majesty can't win them over, then the Empress Dowager won't bother."
This Yun Fenghuang understands that after all, the Empress Dowager herself said that when Chunjia was young, she was so much like the first emperor of Shenzong. She wanted to establish him as the new emperor because of this, but she also didn't want this younger generation to spoil what was left behind by Shenzong. Good impression.
If Chunjia's performance made the Empress Dowager dissatisfied, the Empress Dowager would not mind changing to another emperor who was not quite like Shenzong, but at least reliable.
"So that's how it is." Yun Fenghuang nodded, and suddenly said, "Back then, my niece, Kuo'er, was appointed as a princess and married to Wei He. Dowry, do you know about it?"
Yi Xingen said softly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the Empress Dowager is actually preparing for those people at the moment. If you are willing to let them serve Her Highness Princess Xincheng, you can do so now. In fact, the Empress Dowager has no other intentions. It is really for His Majesty, for the sake of the country."
At that time, Yun Fenghuang couldn't figure out what the Empress Dowager's intention was, so she refused with a cautious attitude.
At this moment, Yi Xingen didn't need to say it, she also knew that the empress dowager's move was mostly to help Xie Kuo, no, it should be said to be to help Guochao.
Those who said it belonged to the Ji family may have actually been left behind by the late Emperor Shenzong.
The Empress Dowager has been staying behind the scenes for a long time these years, but Xie Kuo went to Wei He to do the business of the Da Yan family. Obviously she had never expected it before, but she also wanted to take the opportunity to help Wei He as much as possible. Let Xie Kuo's position in Weihe be more stable.
If he had known the emperor's grandmother's position earlier, how could Yun Fenghuang have refused?
At this moment, he simply agreed on Xie Kuo's behalf: "Then I will thank the emperor's grandmother on behalf of the letter."
She asked some more details about the past, only then did she realize that many things in this palace are actually under the control of the Empress Dowager.
It can only be said that Shenzong and his wife are really not good.
Such a master is ahead of the curve, with the layout decades earlier... Yun Fenghuang's loss is not wronged at all.
Fortunately, although she lost, the result may not be bad.
After sorting out his mood, Yun Fenghuang finally asked: "What did you kill Jing Jieyu for?"
