Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 91: Fly Away and Grow Old

Before the words fell, Yun Qike suddenly heard the wind blowing in the back of his head. He was startled, and instinctively dodged to the side—but before he moved, he had already received two heavy blows in succession!

Before he lost consciousness, he vaguely heard Yun Fenghuang's voice with shock: "Your Majesty?!"

Qi Jiulu glanced at the comatose Yunqike in his hand, threw it under his feet like throwing some garbage, pulled out the handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped his fingers, and stepped on his body to Yunfenghuang, halfway Kneeling down to check, and confirming that she was safe, he breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head and nodded slightly to Empress Ji who was standing at the door: "Dare to ask your mother, where is the key?"

"The man has already been brought out for you." Empress Ji is dressed in beautiful clothes. Even in the prison cell, the double knives are still tied up meticulously. There was a little bit of brilliance under the bright light, which reflected the cold light in her eyes, without any popularity at all.

She threw a bunch of keys at Qi Jiulu, glanced at Yun Fenghuang lightly, "Whether you can let her go with you, that's up to you."

"What joke are you kidding? Ah Huang won't come with me, so why not come with you?" Qi Jiulu was in a good mood at the moment, and he quickly untied Yun Fenghuang from the shackles. Seeing a little dust on her cheek, he stretched out Going over to wipe her sleeves, she said without raising her head, "Yun Qike is also entrusted to you—Gu's side, I don't think I need to worry about it?"

He didn't have much respect for Empress Ji in his tone, and the empress' eyes darkened because of this, but she didn't get angry. She just said "hmm": "Then, I wish your lovers will be married in the end. House full!"

These words were fine at the beginning, but everyone in the imperial court knew that Yun Fenghuang's offspring were hopeless, but she chose to say "a house full of children and grandchildren", which is obviously not without insinuation.

Qi Jiulu frowned slightly when he heard the words, and immediately said with a smile: "I also wish my mother all the best, and take power soon!"

Empress Ji sneered and didn't say anything, she just said: "Your Majesty will leave to go back to Chunban Villa in the future, you'd better move swiftly. Otherwise... you two are willing to be a pair of mandarin ducks who have the same fate and go far away, It also depends on whether His Majesty agrees or not?"

After saying this, he lightly clapped his hands, and two closely guarded guards walked in outside the door, and without saying a word, they came up and lifted Yun Qike to leave.

The queen watched from the side, and when they went out, she followed them.

Yun Fenghuang frowned when he heard their footsteps going away, and asked Qi Jiulu, "Why did you get together with her?"

"Otherwise, how can we be picked out?" Qi Jiulu smiled and kissed her on the cheek, and said, "Wait a minute."

He got up and walked out of the stone room, and came in with a bundle not long after, "I specially prepared it, do you like it?"

Yun Fenghuang opened it suspiciously, and saw that it was a newly made dress, with ultramarine blue background hand-painted with white plum branches, a double-breasted skirt, a blue and green embroidered auspicious cloud belt, and a gray pink crepe skirt with a fairy skirt, in addition to two pieces of jewelry, agate lotus flowers Hairpin and gilt dot emerald emerald beaded stone begonia crane pattern head flower.

Although there are not many things, they are all exquisite, and it can be seen that they have put their heart into it.

She raised her eyebrows, didn't move, but put away the burden, pushed it to the side, squinted her eyes and asked: "Who is that lowly servant girl Xi Le?"

"...She has always been the one arranged by the Dou family for the prince." Qi Jiulu's eyes darkened when he saw this, but he still smiled on his face, and said softly, "When the queen arranged to serve you, the prince has ordered that if you I intend to subdue her and let her just follow you. In daily affairs, even if your orders conflict with what the son said, you are the most important."

Yun Fenghuang snorted, and said, "If Gong Xiangxiao has this kind of ability, why would he recruit you? Did you tell me?"

The two of them got married when they were young and grew up together, and they both know each other very well - just like Qi Jiulu knew that Xi Le was the person Gong Xiangxiao arranged in front of Yunfenghuang, and he was sure that Yunfenghuang would find an opportunity to poach the wall; Hearing what he said, I know that it must be Qi Jiulu himself who came up with this idea.

"When you came to the imperial capital suddenly, you only had Nian Xuan by your side. I remember that maid was not very helpful." Qi Jiulu didn't deny it, and sighed softly, "Living in your aunt's house is already a grievance. Entering the palace, how can you do without anyone who can do it? Xi Le will be careful when doing things properly, especially with that bluffing Xi Jing, who is the confidant you urgently need... I have no other intentions, just want to let You live more comfortably."

Yun Fenghuang sneered and said: "The person who thought he was closing in was a trap set by the enemy plane first. You still say you want to make me feel more comfortable? Do you want me to be so pissed off by you!"

"How can we be enemies?" Qi Jiulu coaxed softly, "Isn't it just because you think that if you can't recruit anyone you can use, you will have something more to worry about... Besides, although Xi Le was ordered to rely on you, he never betrayed you! "

"I couldn't help but rushed to the villa and sent me unconscious to Yun Qike. Is this called never betrayal?" , the lower body is extremely stable, but it doesn't move at all, and even holds her hand.

Yun Fenghuang twitched and didn't twitch, so he simply kicked him, and said in a hateful voice, "Just now, why did Yun Qike like you listening to me outside? If he wasn't so merciful, he would have stopped me in time, wouldn't he?" You just let me take that poisonous pill?! Or just now, whenever you missed, you just let me be blocked by him with a knife?! You really have made progress! You have only been in the Imperial Capital for a few days, and you have learned to trade the green plum you once had for your future Is it?!"

"How could it be possible to ask him to lead you away?" Qi Jiulu hurriedly explained, "The medicine has been changed long ago—but it looks like it, but it's actually a dough mixed with some harmless medicine! As for him just now Move the knife... Didn't I come in immediately after hearing the movement?"

"Really?" Yun Fenghuang looked at him suspiciously, picked up the pill that fell on the lapel of his clothes just because Yun Qike blocked it, looked at it, and suddenly sent it to him, and said with a calm face, "Then you eat it and I'll take it." have a look!"

Qi Jiulu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he didn't hesitate. He took her hand and swallowed it with his mouth open.

"Stupid you!" Then Yun Fenghuang took the pill away when he saw this, and said in a low voice, "The Yun family hates me so much now, they brought me here without beating or scolding, just let me obey That pill, how could it be a good thing! Just now, because Yunqike was unwilling to stop me from taking the medicine, I didn’t find any difference in the pill after being very close to it... It can be seen that even if the pill has been changed, it is enough to confuse the real one! I don’t remember If you have this ability, Ji Lingzi must have done it? Do you believe her when she says that she changed to a non-harmful drug? How do you know that nothing has been done here?!"

After the repeated reprimands, he still couldn't let go of his hatred, and stretched out his fingers to poke his forehead hard, and said in a bad mood, "I told you to eat it now, and you will eat it. Why weren't you so obedient on Peacock Slope back then? If you let you go, you will eat it." I refuse to leave for life or death!"

Qi Jiulu's heart softened when he heard this, and subconsciously said: "I can't help it, seeing you angry, I just want to follow you and let you calm down, I don't care about other things..."

Before he finished speaking, Yun Fenghuang turned his face like a book, and his face darkened instantly. He put the pill in his sleeve, squinted and said, "It seems that Ji Lingzi really made it? I have been holding this pill for a long time. I didn't find anything special, just give me some dyed flour and I can knead the same one, you know it's for me to eat, but you still hand it over to Ji Lingzi instead of doing it yourself..."

She glanced sideways at Qi Jiulu, whose face changed suddenly, and she paused for a moment before sneering, "Just now I heard from Ji Lingzi that you want to take me away?"

Before Qi Jiulu could nod his head, Yun Fenghuang kicked over again, cursing, "What kind of lintels are our two families? Even if you rely on the son of the regent, the son himself is devastated by the housework in the mansion. Can you borrow money?" How powerful is it? How dare you conspire with Ji Lingzi—no matter how poor she is, Ji Lingzi is still the queen of the country, her mother is the world, and she is the daughter of the Ji family. She has a noble status and a profound background! You How is it different from seeking skin from a tiger?!"

"...She took the initiative to send someone to find me." Qi Jiulu was very embarrassed by her beating and scolding, but he didn't dare to resist, so he had to explain while dodging, "Otherwise, I hate Ji so much, why would I take the initiative?" to find her?"

In the end, it was fine if he didn’t say that, but once he said that, Yun Fenghuang became even angrier: “If she finds you, you agree to her? Who is she to you?! Ah, who is she to you?! Who am I to you? ?! Have you ever been so obedient to me!"

Qi Jiulu said in a low voice: "That's not the case, listen to me..."

Yun Fenghuang said impatiently: "Why should I listen? I won't listen! I won't listen! If I say I won't listen, I won't listen, or I won't listen, or I won't listen, or I won't listen!!!"

Qi Jiulu could still bear her making such a fuss, and continued to coax and persuade her gently, but the others couldn't stand it—then heard Gong Xiangxiao's voice coming from outside the door, revealing patience and helplessness: "Little ancestor After receiving the hint from the queen, brother Xinyun immediately contacted his son, who then reported to his father. So now it is the Ji family who is trying to buy brother Xinyun to plot against Uncle Zhaowu and Duke Yi, so as to force His Majesty to use Ji However, Mrs. Ji doesn’t know that we have always been in touch, so needless to say, you can guess what will happen next?”

"Brother Xinyun has worked hard to reunite with you this time. Not to mention anything else, you should understand just how suspicious the queen is - especially after being betrayed by you once, she has become more suspicious! Of course she was the first to find Xinyun. Brother, in fact, I just planned to use Brother Xinyun to frame you, and finally made it to cooperate with Brother Xinyun to bury the Duke of Yi, how much painstaking effort did you spend and how much did Brother Xinyun pay for it?!"

This world is not in vain to support!

Qi Jiulu was relieved in his heart, but his face remained calm, showing more and more determination to endure humiliation.

"So the regent plans to be an oriole this time?" Yun Fenghuang was really moved when he heard the words, and reached out to touch his cheek, as if to comfort him, but he was moved by the message revealed in Gong Xiangxiao's words Attracted, he murmured, "Just from the standpoint of the lord, thinking about it, at this moment, Mrs. Yao Ning couldn't let Mrs. Yaoning take it seriously, um, that's why you brought me here with the help of Yun Qike without saying hello? If what I expected is not bad, I am already dead right now? Is that right?"

There was applause outside the door, Gong Xiangxiao said with a smile: "Brother Xinyun's sweetheart after all, she is really smart! It's just that Mao Jieyu on the other side of the villa is fine, but she fell down while hunting yesterday and was scared , now recuperating in the house, except for the servants, no one else is allowed to come close to disturb..."

"Then tonight or tomorrow, Yunqike will burn Chunban Villa on fire in order to avenge his sister's murder. Mao Jieyu and her dowry Nian Xuan were both buried in the sea of ​​fire, with no bones left. Afterwards, I will be in charge of your Majesty's hunting trip." My son, it is logical to find out the culprits of the family of Duke Yi, as well as the Ji family who instigated behind the scenes and allowed Yun Qike to murder the concubine, so as to avenge the unlucky Mao Jieyu!" Yun Fenghuang concluded from the interface, and immediately Curiously asked, "It's fine that Xi Le was a trap you buried for me early in the morning, what about Nian Xuan? When was Nian Xuan bought by you?"

"Nianxuan was never bought, but just fooled." Qi Jiulu said hastily, "Yesterday in the woods, after you were taken away, Xi Lepo woke up Nianxuan and told her that this was your arrangement, let her Cooperation is... You have been relying heavily on Xi Le recently, Nian Xuan has long been used to it, and you also know that the maid is not very smart, so there is no doubt?"

Yun Fenghuang: “………………………………………”

She calmed down, and said slowly, "Is it true that she has no doubts just by saying that?"

Although I always knew that Nian Xuan was not a very smart person, but if she was really so stupid, then... Yun Fenghuang swallowed silently.

Can such a big thing be fooled? !

This is definitely not caused by her reuse of Xi Le Xi Jing and alienation of Nian Xuan after she entered the palace!

"...I gave Xi Le a token that Nian Xuan recognized in advance, and said that I made an appointment with you, so Nian Xuan believed it." Qi Jiulu hesitated for a while, and confessed, "You just learned how to make a network earlier. The one you called me."

Yun Fenghuang looked at him expressionlessly, making his hair stand on end, and smiled apologetically: "Ah Huang..."

"Your Majesty, with all due respect, the queen is not a fool." However, just when he thought Yun Fenghuang was about to lose his temper, she turned her head and looked outside the door, and said loudly, "This idiot, like me, was born in the Northern Region and came to the Imperial Capital. Afterwards, he joined the Prince Regent's Mansion, and the prince and the prince treated him well. Even if the queen believes that he has feelings for me, there are so many unlucky men in the world. What kind of affection do you believe in when it comes to things?"

Without waiting for Gong Xiangxiao to answer, she sneered slightly, "Don't forget, the matter has not been completed yet, the queen is leaving first - she is not afraid that this idiot will follow me away and send a letter to the prince. Let her plans fall short?!"

"If I were the queen, I wouldn't plan to kill Gu Zhen right now. Why don't I take advantage of the fact that all of us are here and find an excuse to bring the imperial army to search for it!"

"When the time comes, the Prince Regent's son and the guests will be in the same room with Jieyu who should be in the backyard of Chunban Villa, and Jieyu's clothes are still disheveled... If this scene is spread, what will happen to the Prince Regent's mansion?!"

"Even if you are an elder of the clan, if something like this happens, you will definitely be at a disadvantage in the public opinion!"

"However, the regent king has been in power for many years and has a deep foundation. He has the support of the Dingbei Army outside and the Imperial City Secretary is ordered inside. How can he be active?"

"At that time, in order to suppress the King Regent's faction, even if you know that the Ji family is planning all this behind the scenes, how can you not use the Ji family?"

"After all, even if His Majesty is so broad-minded that he can bear the green grass above his head, the Regent cannot believe that His Majesty will not settle accounts in the future... Between uncles and nephews, there is no choice but to die!"

"Such an overt plan for the general situation, how can it be compared to the schemes of Gu Zhen and Yun Qike?"
