Chapter 222 On the Technique of Fragmentation

"The Empress Dowager is happy and angry." Xie Hengyu led a group of servants kneeling down to persuade her, "Although the Empress Dowager has punishments, but since the implementation is postponed until the first month of the next year, it can be seen that there is still room for mediation. As long as the banquet is smooth It's going well, maybe the empress dowager won't bring it up again... Besides, Concubine Ying, no, the Gu family was demoted to nine concubines. It can be seen from the eyes of the empress dowager and her majesty that it is the Gu family who made the mistake this time. !"

With a gloomy face, Yun Fenghuang threw a bottle in his hand down the steps, and the splash of broken porcelain made a group of waiters kneel down even more.

She stared at everyone for a moment, took a few deep breaths, and said, "Get up."

Xie Hengyu and Chen Zhu got up first, and the others got up tremblingly.

"The day's banquet is just around the corner, and all the preparations have already been made, but you have been taking care of it from beginning to end." Xie Hengyu stepped forward to support Yun Fenghuang, sat down slowly on the rose chair, and whispered , "It's in the bone, whether it's the queen mother or your majesty, it's impossible to replace someone to act as the queen..."

Yun Fenghuang let out a sigh of relief, waved his hands to make the others retreat, and then said calmly: "Don't worry, how can I not know their thoughts? It just happened, but it was just for the empress dowager to see."

She sneered slightly, "The loving mother, the Empress Dowager, seemed to be partial to Bengong and Zhaorong earlier, but recently she has become more and more displeased with Bengong. Not to mention provoking harmony between Bengong and Zhaorong, this time... She seems to be delaying the punishment of Ben Gong, but in the final analysis it is only for His Majesty! Otherwise, I am afraid that she would like to deal with Ben Gong immediately!"

"But in this palace..." Xie Hengyu's words were interrupted by Yun Fenghuang: "The people in this palace don't have any suitable people to replace this palace, but after the opening of the new year, there may be no newcomers. Already!"

Xie Hengyu was stunned and said: "But this year we only added someone..."

Yun Fenghuang said: "That's why the loving mother, the Empress Dowager, endured this palace for more than half a year! After all, since His Majesty got married, at the beginning of this year, it was the first time that a large-scale newcomer was recruited. The reason is that the emperor has no heir. Therefore, although it is another The government and the public will not say anything about hiring noble girls and picking good families, but they think it should be done."

"It's just that when the Empress Dowager made the edict, His Majesty hadn't been in charge yet. The people in this palace are still inextricably linked with the Ji family."

"Speaking slowly of Xue Xiaoge and his like, they are concubines selected from the bottom. Who knows if they are mixed with sand?"

"Since His Majesty took power, the Ji family has been losing power day by day, and now the empress is sick... Mom thinks that the loving mother, the Empress Dowager, or Your Majesty will tolerate this harem and continue to maintain the current status. The Ji family, the regent, Concubines from the Cui family and the Zheng family occupy high positions, even if they are not favored?!"

She sighed deeply, "They must change this harem from top to bottom! It's just that people have been admitted at the beginning of the year. It's impossible to say that the first thing after His Majesty took office is to add people again... It seems that His Majesty has too many people." Seems impatient. How could Chunjia be willing to do such a thing of giving someone a handle by accumulating the reputation of a wise monarch with all her heart and soul?"

Xie Hengyu heard her lack of respect for Chunjia's words, and was terrified: "My lady, don't do this!"

Is this because they don't want to live anymore, so they have no fear? ? ?

Yun Fenghuang didn't see what she was thinking, and continued with a sneer, "So no matter how impatient they are, they must endure this year! But it will be different next year. Anyway, if they can be like Ben Gong, Acting as the queen, not to mention how well you do it, at least you don’t make mistakes, and it’s not something that can be raised by a poor family! You don’t need to be selected by the whole country, you only need to choose from big families. !"

"Mom, let's just watch. Next year, um, didn't the loving mother Empress Dowager say that after the first month, she will settle accounts with me? It seems that she almost plans to propose newcomers at that time... At that time, I will be useless to them." Now, Empress Ji's present is the future of this palace!"

Before Xie Hengyu could speak, she said, "Oh, I overestimated myself—Empress Ji is the daughter of the Ji family and the wife of Chunjia. Even if she loses power now, she must be honored and raised. Now, this palace can't be treated like this, maybe you will be thrown into the cold palace, and if you drive the loving mother and empress dowager to be cruel, the three-foot white silk will not be surprising."

"Your Majesty, don't do this." Xie Hengyu's heart was sour, and he comforted in a low voice, "The matter has not reached that point yet. Besides, how can you compare the Queen with you? There is no friendship between the Queen and Her Majesty, but Ji's In the past, when the power was in the hands of the people, they did a lot of arrogant and domineering acts, surpassing the emperor... It is only natural for your majesty to despise them. But these days when you get along with your majesty, the maidservants are clear on the sidelines, even if your majesty treats you well It’s so heart-wrenching, it’s impossible to tell the truth without even a little bit of truth.”

"Your Majesty didn't do anything outrageous, so how could Your Majesty just...be ruthless with you all of a sudden because of such a little grudge?"

"It's impossible."

"Don't worry about those things that annoy you...Maybe His Majesty will come to us after getting angry tomorrow?"

Yun Fenghuang sneered, and said: "Do you want Chunjia to come over? Don't worry, if what I expect is correct, he will come here today. After all, I can't replace him right now, so can he not win over?" Focus on Ben Gong? It's not like he doesn't know, Ben Gong is not as virtuous and docile as Zhaorong, it really makes Ben Gong feel that there is no way out, so he doesn't care about the consequences!"

He also said, "If you think this palace is unfounded and worrying about the sky, let's see what happens next: the punishment of this palace is what the loving mother empress dowager said personally, but when she came back, she was furious and smashed many things. When it was heard by the loving mother empress dowager, follow Common sense, how can she not be angry? Even if the banquet is coming soon, it is not easy to spread the news that I don’t like the palace, and it is only natural to summon her to ask her in private and ask His Majesty to reprimand her."

"But if she keeps her mouth shut and pretends she doesn't know, then she is ready for a replacement, so there's no need to talk to Bengong!"

Xie Hengyu was heartbroken when he heard it, and thought to himself that this time he would be ashamed to tell the old master, and he really couldn't persuade this master to seek his own death--then Yun Fenghuang said coldly: "It's just their mother The two of them want to cross the river and demolish the bridge, so they have to ask me if they are willing to use this bridge? Thinking about when I first entered the palace, how could I have relied on someone’s initiative to pity me all the way?! It’s really their mother who can make me what I am today. Did the two give alms?!"

She is the winner of a real fight, not an orthodox concubine who loves her superiors!

It's just that the later stages in the middle went relatively smoothly, and there must be Chunjia's pity to some extent. That pity was also obtained by her careful planning, singing and fighting.

It's not that Chunjia took the initiative to discover and give.

Throw away when you want to use it, it's not that easy!

Xie Hengyu was tongue-tied, a little uncomfortable with her way of thinking, and then said in a daze, "Your Majesty, what do you mean...?"

"Meng'er has been in the palace for a few days. It's not good for a child to be away from their parents for a long time." Yun Fenghuang narrowed his eyes and said lightly, "Pack her up later and send her back. Mother, you can see her off in person." , and wait until no one is around..."

She was silent for a while before continuing in a low voice, "Ask my sister-in-law if there is a way to contact...the Prince Regent's Palace in private."

Xie Hengyu was surprised and said: "The Regent's Palace? How could the Thirteenth Young Madam have this idea?!"

"Why not?" Yun Fenghuang reminded her, "Sister-in-law Thirteen is the daughter of the Chen family and Qi Jiulu's mother-in-law. Of course she is called Tang Aunt! And Qi Jiulu's relationship with the Prince Regent's Mansion does not need to be mentioned by me, you should also know stop?"

"But this is too..." Xie Hengyu looked embarrassed. She didn't think that Yun Fenghuang's actions were disloyal to Chunjia, or unfair to Qi Jiulu—after all, he belonged to Yunfenghuang, of course. First of all, consider Yun Fenghuang's interests—it's just that the Xie family's children have already set a good future, so is it worth going to the Regent's Palace?

The Regent is not a cheap lamp!

"Mom, I'm going to say something rude." Yun Fenghuang patiently explained, "There are many poor families in the world, and our Xie family is not the only big family in the Northland. Among them, is there anyone else who is similar to our family? Yes, are you willing to seek refuge with His Majesty? Why are the Xinke Scholars and Masters chosen by the Xie family? In the end, is it because of my palace that I can get the moon first?"

"The status of the palace is not stable now, do you think that what His Majesty promised before can still be accurate?"

"Of course, I believe in the talents of the elder brothers. Even if His Majesty did not hint to the examiner, they must be able to go to high school. But not to mention that after losing the opportunity of Shangzhu, it is impossible for Xie's lintel to improve quickly, just say For the people and things that I have offended since entering the palace, do you think that once I lose power, fewer people will be offended?"

"At that time, no matter whether the brothers become officials or return to their hometowns, will there be peace?"

"The current situation, for our family, is to retreat if we don't advance!"

"We have no choice at all—if His Majesty is reliable, that is of course the best; but now that His Majesty is no longer reliable, how can we not find a way out in advance?!"

"At least the right to take charge of the Sixth Palace is still in the hands of this palace. The news of the demotion has not yet spread. In the eyes of outsiders, this palace is still the concubine who is proud of the Sixth Palace. And the elder brother in the family is also a tacit upstart in the future... …Do you think you are looking for someone to negotiate business at this moment and ask for a high price, or do you wait for this palace to fall out of favor and leave the position, and all the brothers are lost, and then go to ask for mercy and ask for a price... No, at that time, we still have the right to negotiate the price? "

"At that time, it was man for the knife and I for the fish!"

Xie Hengyu heard the cold sweat dripping from his forehead, and solemnly bowed down on the ground without wiping it off: "My servant must bring the words to the Thirteenth Young Madam!"

Yun Fenghuang nodded: "Tell her the analysis I just made verbatim, lest she take it seriously and refuse to try her best."

And it also let Xiao Chen know that this matter was not done for her alone, but also for Xiao Chen's husband's family, her husband, children and even her own future.

Of course, Xie Hengyu didn't know that the reason why Yun Fenghuang arranged Xiao Chen as the candidate to re-contact the Prince Regent's Mansion was not only because of the relationship between this sister-in-law and Chen's relationship, but also because of such an important The contact leads all go through the Chen family, not the Xie family.

Then once the wind leaks out in the middle, she will give up the car anytime and anywhere to protect the handsome, and put herself aside...

After all, Chunjia is not what it used to be today, and Yunfenghuang has to think about defeat before thinking about victory.

She regretted again and again, why couldn't the emperor be a fool who didn't know the difference between wheat and beans?

Then she can even think about the rooster sitting in the morning.

It's not like now, to be a concubine who looks at people's faces, you have to worry about being replaced by killing donkeys all the time.

Then he pulled Xie Hengyu to tell him some words, trying to make Xiao Chen feel panic as much as possible, so he went all out, Yun Fenghuang looked at the mess in the hall, and ordered in a gentle tone: "It's done, let them Come in and tidy up."

As a result, when she went back to the back hall, the front palace people didn't clean up twice, and Chunjia came.
