Chapter 134: The Emperor's Revenge
Yun Fenghuang said: "The empress is still investigating thoroughly, but I heard that Hu Fengyi's eldest palace lady once took a photo with Yue Jieyu's close servant in the back mountain, but I don't know if it is true or not."
Chunjia was silent for a while, waved back and forth, and said, "What do you think?"
I think?
Yun Fenghuang said in his heart, of course I think that this matter may really be done by Yuan Niangniang - after all, burning charcoal in the hot summer, even if it is a palace on the mountain, is enough to attract attention, such a perfunctory murder method is really Yuan Niangniang's style is not it?
"It should be someone who wanted to frame her." Yun Fenghuang said with a straight face, "After all, Yue Jieyu has always claimed that she has worked hard and is the only person on the cusp of His Majesty's heart. Forget it, what does she have to worry about? Could it be that she still thinks that Hu Fengyi can threaten her after giving birth to the prince?"
Chunjia looked at her with a half-smile: "What about Aifei? Is Aifei also worried that Hu Fengyi will give birth to a male heir?"
Yun Fenghuang said: "What is the concubine worried about? Not to mention that the concubine can't give birth by herself, there is no Hu Fengyi to give birth to your majesty's children, and there are other people, it is difficult for the concubine to kill all the three palaces and six courtyards It means that there is Yi Yuwan under my concubine who is also pregnant. Your Majesty doesn't even have a princess now, no matter whether Yi Yuwan gave birth to a boy or a girl, can His Majesty feel sorry for you? Besides, Yi Yuwan Wan is so beautiful that even a concubine is ashamed to be inferior to her. Your Majesty is also a dragon and a phoenix, wise and powerful. Yi Yuwan's offspring must be cute and pleasing to the eye."
"I am looking forward to it when I think about it. What are you doing to envy the heirs in other palaces?"
She said calmly, "What's more, Yi Yuwan is not the only one under this concubine! Your Majesty and this concubine are still young, and I am afraid that I will not be able to succeed without a prince?"
"Concubine Ai can think about it." The emperor laughed straight after hearing this, and stretched out his hand to touch her temple hair, his tone was a bit cool, of course he didn't go to Yun Fenghuang, "It's a pity that there are some people in this palace who just can't figure it out. "
Yun Fenghuang didn't ask him who he suspected, but said leisurely: "It's not an ignorant child anymore. If you really don't understand, why don't you come up with someone who can understand. Anyway, there is nothing missing in the palace. There will be a shortage of people who want to come in."
The emperor smiled, stroking her hair bun, neither saying yes nor no, after a while, Fang slowly said: "I am afraid that the empress has more than enough energy to preside over the palace these years, so the emperor's heirs will take over one by one. Something happened to one of them... Concubine Ai is young, why not help the queen."
"I'm afraid that my concubine's shallow knowledge will disappoint His Majesty." Yun Fenghuang was overjoyed in his heart, but showed hesitation on his face, "Besides, the loving mother, the Empress Dowager, has not yet recovered, so my concubine..."
"Leave it to Wei Jieyu at the Fangyin Hall, and I will visit my mother when I have time." Chunjia said lightly, "As for your lack of knowledge...you didn't know much when you were young, but anyway, It’s just a start, the queen is in charge of everything; secondly, if you really encounter someone who doesn’t know what to do, you can also ask the godmother.”
Yun Fenghuang comprehended the Holy Will: Anyway, you are sharing the queen's power under the banner of being a subordinate, so remember to blame the queen if you have any troubles, and remember to give the credit to yourself; if you can't pinch the queen, you can also call on Queen Mother Yuan for support.
...Why didn't she find Chunjia so likable before? ? ?
Suppressing his joy, Yun Fenghuang sincerely thanked Empress Ji for sending him to report the bad news this time, and expressed his loyalty excitedly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, with the teachings of the loving mother Empress Dowager, I will definitely not let you down!"
It was at the end that I remembered the second thing today, "By the way, Your Majesty, just now the maid in front of the empress reported a message to the loving mother, the empress dowager, that it is Ji Yuwan, and I am happy."
This piece was arranged by Empress Ji as good news, Yun Fenghuang was thinking about the intention of diluting the bad news of Hu Fengyi's death.
It's just that in the Fangyin Pavilion before, Queen Mother Yuan's attitude was already very indifferent. Now Chunjia is even more ruthless. Hearing this, she said without thinking: "In this case, how can Ji Yuwan continue to live in Zhuxueyuan?" Are you disturbing the emperor's grandmother? Of course, she is pregnant after all, and it's not good to have no master to take care of her, so let her move..."
Glancing at Yun Fenghuang, he probably thought that this concubine would soon represent himself and Empress Dowager Yuan in a fight for power with the queen, and there was another Yi Xingen in Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion, so she couldn't take care of her.
After pondering for a while, "Let her move to Luqintai. Although the imperial concubine is still in confinement, the queen told me when she suggested that Zhao Chenggui be arranged there. The imperial concubine was pregnant earlier, so she must have collected a lot. The method of confinement. Even if the imperial concubine is lying down by herself, the people around her must be very good at taking care of the pregnant woman... My concubine will send a message to the queen later, and say that I sympathize with Ji Yuwan's pregnancy, so there is no need to come over to thank her."
I don't know if Ji Muzi will be upset when she hears the news...
Yun Fenghuang held back his smile and nodded in agreement.
As expected, Emperor Xindao only seemed to be gentle and refined, but in fact, his revenge was quite tormenting.
After all, the Ji family has been descended for three generations and is deeply rooted in the palace. A special concubine like Ji Muzi couldn't be held back by an ordinary host.
But Concubine Zheng is the concubine who is second only to the empress, and she has the support of her uncle Zheng Gu. Although she usually respects the empress, Ji Muzi is just a mere Ji Muzi, and she was only Zhaoyuan before she was demoted. She has nothing to fear.
And I don't know if the emperor knows it or not. The root cause of Concubine Zheng's miscarriage is that the male heir in her womb was tampered with, and it was just a torture for nothing when she was born. One can guess that the imperial concubine is most suspicious of the Ji family.
Now that Ji's prostitute daughter is in her hands, how can she let this chance go?
I'm afraid that the methods learned from Zheng Gu will be used on Ji Muzi.
The reason why the emperor sent Ji Muzi to Luqintai was still the original words of the empress... The emperor's intention of retaliation can be said to be quite naked.
"I ordered people to summon important ministers to discuss state affairs." Chunjia asked Yun Fenghuang about the phoenix body of the Empress Dowager Yuan, and after checking the time, she sent her away, "If my concubine is fine, then go."
He didn't even have the intention of going to Dan Ruoting to have a look.
After leaving the Xingxin Hall, the Qing people saw that there was no one in front of them, so they sighed slightly: "Hu Fengyi is also pitiful."
"If you don't advance to the position of concubine, you will be an ant." Yun Fenghuang looked indifferent, "Slowly talk about your majesty, it is the palace, not to mention other places, it is the concubines in the Xuanqing Palace, except Yi Xingen Qu Hongzhuan Waiting for a few people who are outstanding in appearance and smart and obedient, and the ordinary ones don't mention anything, I'm afraid I won't recognize them if I see them outside."
So Hu Fengyi is gone, and the emperor is stingy to be there to remember it in person, which is understandable in Yun Fenghuang's view-this Fengyi has attracted the attention of the Six Palaces only because of the emperor's heir, or the emperor who is suspected of being a male heir Heir.
Now that there are no people left, the emperor's heir will naturally go with him.
So who cares about her anymore?
This palace seems to be full of flowers, but under the flowers, there is always a cold reality. Yun Fenghuang understood this truth when he just entered the palace, so he did not hesitate to gamble on his fertility, and broke the convention to become a concubine.
Those palace concubines who are not aware of it, or who are aware of it but have no choice but to continue to live in fear, letting others decide their own honor and disgrace.
"The servant girl remembered that when she was with Madam, she heard a poem that Madam urged the Eighteenth Prince to recite." The Qing people have served the Jiang family for many years, and they are not the kind of soft-hearted people. It's just that the Xie family is not a small rural family at the bottom, nor is it a top-notch family. As a big family that is more than enough than the next, and relies on the large number of clansmen to maintain its momentum, it is natural to be extraordinarily particular about human feelings, and rarely act decisively. As cold and undisguised as Gong Wei.
The Qing people were unavoidably a little unaccustomed to it, and said, "'If you only work hard on your own, you won't succeed in a hundred years'. At that time, the servant girl felt strangely chilled. Now, looking at this palace, how many people are "no gold bones, no list" Dantai Name【Note】'?"
Yun Fenghuang smiled lightly: "There are always a majority of mediocre people in this world. If you don't want to live in a muddle like them, naturally you have to strive for the top."
It may be due to the difference in status and age. At this moment, she is full of thoughts about entering the palace for several months and finally being able to intervene in the palace power justifiably. In Hu Fengyi's situation, she felt that she didn't need the sympathy and pity of others at all.
Hurrying back to Baoser Xiaozhu, Yun Fenghuang said Chunjia's arrangement with a smile, and watched the queen's face darken a little bit. She didn't speak for a long time, but finally she had to nod: "Since Your Majesty has said so, then follow me when you are free."
After thinking about it for a while, he said, "It just so happens that there are some things here in this palace that are really too busy."
So he proposed to let her share the various cases.
"Your Majesty said that this concubine is young and incomprehensible, so it is enough to let this concubine help the empress." This is a fat job, but Yun Fenghuang flatly refused, "This is a big matter, I am afraid I can't do it, I will follow you It's good to have a lot of knowledge around the empress."
What are you kidding?
Although it is good to make money, you can still take advantage of the situation to play tricks. The problem is that the few people around her who are sent by the Jiang family are still reliable, and the other places are all blind. There is a problem with the food and clothing of the concubines, especially those who are pregnant... Aren't they trying to embarrass themselves and make the empress laugh at the emperor's ignorance!
Yun Fenghuang is not confused, at her age, qualifications and family background, without the support of the emperor, it is impossible for her to touch the edge of the palace power - when she just entered the palace, Zheng Guifei was happy, and the empress only took a share to enrich the palace Quan hinted that concubine Shu joined forces, but did not give any real power, and concubine Shu's background, status, and qualifications in the palace?
The most important thing for the current plan is to make the emperor happy, stabilize his position, and establish his own power. What do you want when the wings are full?
So Empress Ji asked a few more things, which were all rejected by Yun Fenghuang very vigilantly. Finally, the Empress became impatient and asked directly: "Since Your Majesty asked you to come here to share my worries, you can't just do nothing. Do it? Could it be that you want to perfunctory the holy order?"
The empress is about to be charged with crimes, and Yun Fenghuang of course has to answer: "I think that I am young and have little knowledge. I am afraid that I will not be able to do things that are too important. At that time, I will not only disappoint your majesty, but also delay your empress. I don’t care about trivial matters, but if His Majesty knows about it, I’m afraid I’ll misunderstand your empress’ love for power, and I don’t want to teach my concubine.”
"..." Empress Ji understood, what Zhaoyi meant was that she didn't want to do small things, and if she dared to fool her with small things, she would sue the emperor that the queen loves power; she was going to do big things, but she was responsible I don't want to bear it anymore, she can enjoy the credit alone.
If it wasn't for knowing that the other party was arranged by the emperor, the empress could roll up her sleeves and beat her to death on the spot!
"... I know, it's just that it's getting late now, and the matter of Hu Fengyi hasn't been dealt with properly." Empress Ji took a deep breath, and said expressionlessly, "I can't think of a suitable arrangement for a while, In this way, after you go back to serve Yuan's mother first, I will think about it carefully and talk about it tomorrow. It's just one night, so you can't wait?"
Yun Fenghuang smiled sweetly and softly: "Your Majesty said this, I will obey you in everything!"
She stepped out of Baoser Xiaozhu, the queen couldn't help but dropped the tea bowl with her back foot: "Bitch!!!"
