Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 31 Twins

Such bad luck happened at the Wanshou Banquet, so of course it couldn't go on - the banquet ended hastily, but the matter wasn't over yet.

"The two empress dowagers, Your Majesty, An Liu committed suicide by taking poison, which shows that this matter has nothing to do with my concubine." Yun Fenghuang took the lead in throwing the blame again, "I came from a humble background, and the Duke of Yi's mansion is even more loyal to the royal family." , where would such poison be brought into the palace?"

The Xie family of my natal family does not have this kind of background, and the Duke of Yi's mansion treats the emperor much better than this palace. It is impossible to hand over this kind of thing to this palace. Therefore, even if this palace silences Anliu, there is no such condition-conclusion: Ben Gong is absolutely innocent!

Yuan Zhiniang said softly: "Sister Zhenfei, why do you have to belittle yourself so presumptuously? Who would dare to underestimate you if you are in the harem who doesn't know that you are favored by His Majesty?"

Concubine Zhen, you did not have a good background before, but after becoming a concubine, you have more opportunities to take the initiative to send it to your door. Who knows if someone with a deep background stuffed things for you?

Yun Fenghuang glanced at her: "Zhaoyuan seems to have a lot of experience."

You think so fast, has Yuan Shi already tasted this kind of sweetness?

"Enough!" Seeing her niece at a loss for words, Empress Dowager Yuan frowned, stopped sullenly, turned to Chunjia, and sighed, "If I knew this would happen, the Ai family should have postponed the discussion."

Anliu would die even if it was delayed until tomorrow, at least it didn't happen on the same day - someone died at a good birthday banquet, even ordinary people would feel bad luck, let alone the emperor's Longevity Day.

Empress Dowager Yuan really regretted it now, "It's my family's carelessness."

"The child is the son of heaven, and all evil will not invade." Chunjia didn't care too much, he was living in Ji's hands before, who would take care of such details as him?

Moreover, the Longevity Festival this time was originally organized to further strengthen his influence, and he himself did not pay much attention to it.

At present, he hopes to resolve this turmoil as soon as possible compared to the unlucky ones. "The queen mother doesn't have to blame herself. Besides, An Liu was serving meals in a place where the palace is restricted. However, she is very poisonous and even brought it to people like me. In front of you... this is a big matter, and it would be better to investigate thoroughly as soon as possible, otherwise, if you delay for a while, you may be giving opportunities to people with ulterior motives!"

Hearing this, Yun Fenghuang had no choice but to kneel down and plead guilty: "This is all my concubine's fault. I have been using An Liu before, but I didn't realize that she is so ambitious!"

"This is very strange." Empress Dowager Yuan pretended not to see it, and turned her head to Chunjia and said, "It's just a trivial matter that the meal was overturned. If Ai's family didn't pursue it, it would have passed like this; if it was pursued, it would be Ann." Duan committed suicide in fear of crime... Leaving aside the former, let's talk about the latter, what are the people behind the scenes trying to do?"

"It's impossible to do something like this on the Longevity Festival. It's just to make things difficult for us?"

Empress Dowager Qu interrupted: "Sister, maybe it's to sow discord?"

Empress Dowager Yuan said lightly: "The real concubine has said it all. She has no resentment but gratitude towards Aijia. Doesn't the Aijia only love her and not get bored with her? If so, what else is there to provoke? What do you think?"

"Sister dare not." Queen Mother Qu quickly lowered her head and narrowed her eyes.

Empress Dowager Yuan interrupted her, and then said to Chunjia: "Emperor, look at the previous court, the Ai family always feels that this matter is endless."

Chunjia respectfully said yes, and was about to speak when Empress Dowager Yuan said, "By the way, someone came to report just now, saying that there was news from the palace, and the Ai family thought, why is it such a coincidence today that it was only at the Wanshou Banquet?" Something happened, and someone came from the palace? I don't know if there is any connection between the two?"

She said in a nonchalant tone, "Xiao Ji gave birth, and it is said that they are still twins, but they are two little princes."

Everyone was startled by this news, and Chunjia was also a little surprised. Empress Dowager Qu couldn't help but pursed her lips and said, "Twins? This is rare."

Empress Dowager Yuan took a deep look at her and said, "Well, it's rare. The visitor is still waiting outside, does the emperor want to see you?"

"The mother's matter is more important." Chunjia shook his head and said, "And such matters, why do you need the child to come forward in person? Zhenfei, you go and take care of it, everything follows the rules."

Yun Fenghuang, who knelt for a while, heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that Chunjia deliberately found a reason to get her up: "Yes."

She got up to go out, asked the waiter at the door, and was led to a side hall, where a servant full of dust was waiting.

Seeing Concubine Zhen come in, she knelt down to pay her respects.

Yun Fenghuang said: "Get up, I heard that you brought good news, it's just that there are some things in the rush for the palace banquet today, and they were talking about it, and the loving mother, the Empress Dowager, didn't talk about it carefully... and I have nothing to do with this palace. Come on."

The waiter said "yes" and said in detail... In fact, there is nothing to elaborate, it is just that Ji Muzi is living very well under the care of the empress dowager and her mother empress dowager these days. It's a good thing to start, because it's the first child and twins, it's quite a toss, until this morning the third son was born, and then struggled for a long time, and the fourth son was born at noon.

In this way, the palace was full of joy, and the empress dowager hurriedly asked people to come over to announce the good news to the palace.

"Your Majesty's knees are empty, Ji Yuwan has made a great contribution." Yun Fenghuang nodded, followed the rules to encourage, and asked the Qing people to prepare rewards, and finally asked about the bodies of the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager.

The servant said: "The empress dowager and the mother empress dowager have been raising them for a lot of days, but this time Yu Wan gave birth to a crisis, and the two empresses are very worried and tired. I don't know if they need to be raised by a good general."

This remark is obviously leaving room for it.

Yun Fenghuang heard it and frowned secretly.

The Ji family had hoped that the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager Ji would return to the palace, because these two could not only restrain Chunjia from the harem, but also play a role in many cases—especially the Empress Dowager—but unfortunately Ji Muzi gave birth to two princes now!

It is conceivable how important these two princes are to the Ji family who is in a severe situation!

Not to mention expecting one of them to take Chunjia's seat in the future, once the Ji family is completely defeated, maybe they can rely on the face of the two children to keep a chance of survival?

Therefore, the Ji family will definitely go all out to protect them.

As for the current relationship between the Ji family and Mrs. Chunjia, would they trust Chunjia?

impossible.

So in the future, it is very likely that Empress Dowager Ji and Empress Dowager Ji will voluntarily give up their plan to return to the palace in a short period of time in order to take good care of these two children.

After all, on Miyagi's side, ever since Empress Ji became ill, the concubines in power, whether Yun Feng Huang or Concubine Xuan Rui, were all committed to eradicating the influence of the Ji family and weakening the deterrence of the Ji family.

After half a year, the Ji family can't be said to have no foundation in the palace, but he was also hit hard.

On the other hand, in the palace, although Yun Fenghuang started to seize power during the summer vacation last year, after all, time is limited. Moreover, the seniority identities of the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager Ji were put there, and Yun Fenghuang didn't dare to get involved with them in all kinds of monsters at that time.

After the period of operation and consolidation since the end of the summer vacation, it is obviously the safest for the two children with Ji's blood to live in the palace.

As for the heat and coldness of the palace, it is nothing to the extremely wealthy Tian family.

Thinking about it this way, it is very likely that the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager Ji will stay in the palace...

Yun Fenghuang frowned, how could this work?

She also counted on these two to come back and help the Empress Dowager Yuan take care of it!

How can I let them stay in the palace and rest assured to raise the prince!

"I know." Yun Fenghuang pondered in his heart, raised his head and smiled at the servant, "I will report to His Majesty."

She waved the people away, and went back to the previous hall, where the Empress Dowager Qu was talking, and she listened intermittently through the door: "...I know that I came from a humble background, and my talent is stupid. To be able to achieve what I am today is already a blessing from heaven." Fortunately, I won't ask him again... If my sister doesn't believe me, I can go back to my hometown in Fuyang County... but I'm afraid that someone will deliberately provoke, so as to make the harem uneasy and drag down your majesty..."

There was a choke in his tone later on.

Yun Fenghuang stood at the door, entered as if nothing had happened, and saw Queen Mother Qu's face was blushing, her eyes were full of tears, she was holding her handkerchief tightly, looking at Queen Mother Yuan mournfully.

And Empress Dowager Yuan had a sullen face, looking like she wanted to get angry but was not good at it.

Seeing Yun Fenghuang coming in, Empress Dowager Yuan breathed a sigh of relief: "In front of the imperial concubine, you are an elder anyway, don't do this, let the children see us and laugh at us."

Yun Fenghuang pretended not to hear, and stood behind Chunjia after being blessed.

Chunjia coughed dryly: "The two mothers and queens are all for the benefit of the baby, and the baby knows it. Let's not talk about this matter, let's get back to the topic, the baby thinks that this matter should be handled by the Imperial City Secretary, so as not to disturb The care of the two queen mothers, the second is that the queen is sick now, and the three concubines who are in charge are all young, otherwise An Liu would not be allowed to get close to the mother of Yuan...the Imperial City Secretary is more experienced."

Empress Dowager Yuan asked without expression: "Sister Qu, what do you think?"

"Everything is under the orders of my sister and Your Majesty." The Empress Dowager Qu's posture was as low as ever.

Anger flashed across Empress Dowager Yuan's eyes, she forced herself to restrain herself, and looked at Yun Fenghuang again: "Concubine Zhen, what do you think?"

Yun Fenghuang said softly: "I will listen to Your Majesty in everything."

So the matter was settled like this - Empress Dowager Yuan immediately got up and said she was going back, her niece Yuan Zhiniang followed of course, Chunjia knew that she was not feeling well, got up to see her off, Yun Fenghuang saw it, and went straight away Go to the Empress Dowager Qu: "The concubine will send it off to the empress."

Empress Dowager Qu glanced at her with complicated eyes: "The real concubine has a heart, but I still don't want it, you go back to see the emperor's heir, the Ai family has its own palace servants to take care of it."

"Yes." Yun Fenghuang saluted with a smile, "The concubine, thank you for your consideration."

So she went to join the palace people who took care of the emperor's heir, and they returned to Huanhua Hall together, and then asked someone to take the emperor's heir to rest in the side hall where they were placed, and Chunjia came over.

"Didn't Your Majesty go to send off the loving mother, the Empress Dowager?" Yun Fenghuang asked in surprise as he entered and sat down in front of him.

Chunjia frowned and said: "Having walked halfway, the queen mother suddenly remembered that she was going to see Mrs. Chunke. After a few words of persuasion, there was nothing serious about seeing the mother, so I left."

Yun Fenghuang speculated that things should not be so simple, the mother and son may have fallen out.

However, she didn't immediately get into trouble. After all, it was not a time when there were no disputes among close relatives. Just such a bad breakup was not the time to reveal that she couldn't tolerate Queen Mother Yuan's true colors.

She brought the topic to the palace as if nothing had happened: "It's no wonder that the loving mother Empress Dowager thinks of Mrs. Chunke. The third and fourth princes were born by such a coincidence that they were born on the same day as His Majesty. However, although the visitor did not mention his appearance, it must be There is no eldest prince like His Majesty."

Chunjia raised her eyebrows, and as expected, she asked: "You just went to see the palace man who came to report the news, what did you say there?"
