Chapter VI The Empress, Mother, and Our Lady

Yun Qingman felt that Concubine Shu's words were too harsh. Originally, Duke Yi beheaded and then sent Yun Fenghuang into the palace, so she felt very sorry. Now she was afraid that Yun Fenghuang would not be able to step down, so she hurriedly pulled Concubine Shu's sleeve secretly, and whispered Said: "Sister!"

"Your Empress Dowager Daoji is as talkative as your sister?" Concubine Shu gave her an annoyed look, her tone softened, and she was about to say a few soft words, when Yun Fenghuang said straightforwardly: "Falling into the water is a real thing. There is no human push.”

"What?" Yun Qingman's eyes widened, "Fenghuang, you actually..." You dare to openly frame the concubine, and you are still the head of your own palace!

Even though she knew that she was quite bold in handing in the handkerchief, she couldn't help but gasp at the moment!

Not only Yun Qingman, but Concubine Yun Shu also frowned slightly, and said: "You are really courageous."

"How dare I do it myself?" Yun Fenghuang said with an aggrieved expression, "Isn't she the palace servant in front of the empress..."

She didn't finish her sentence, but Concubine Shu's sisters already understood that Empress Ji's resentment towards Concubine Yue was well known in the palace.

Although the Empress has the upper hand relying on the Ji family, Concubine Yue and Emperor Chunjia have a deep childhood sweetheart relationship. Emperor Chunjia not only respects the Empress, but also protects Concubine Yue, which makes the Empress hate Concubine Yue even more. Today is such a good opportunity, it would be strange not to take advantage of Yunfeng Huang to trick Concubine Yue... In fact, Concubine Shu mentioned the imperial physician to the queen before, not without the intention of giving the queen a chance to manipulate.

"Sister, since it is the meaning of the empress dowager, the empress dowager will not care about it, right?" Yun Qingman was delighted to hear this, and asked Concubine Shu, "The empress dowager is the aunt of the empress dowager, so she won't let her go. Empress Empress face."

Concubine Shu still frowned, and said: "It's really a child's talk. Of course, Feng Huang planted Concubine Yue after being hinted by the empress, but what evidence is there?"

Yun Qingman was stunned: "This... If the people in front of the empress hadn't hinted at this, how would Fenghuang dare to do such a thing?"

"The empress dowager must believe it! The empress dowager doesn't believe it, let alone no evidence, even if there is evidence, it is false." Concubine Shu sighed, "Who said our father and the Ji family are not on the same side?"

As the mainstay of the royalist party, Yi Guogong has been favored by the Ji family for many years, and the proposal of marriage has been proposed several times. It's a pity that this Duke is so loyal to the Gongxiang family, he doesn't care about it at all. In recent years, he has repeatedly proposed that Emperor Chunjia be in charge... Emperor Chunjia may be grateful to him, and the Ji family naturally hates him. The old guy is dead.

Hate the house and Wu, in the harem where the three generations of the Ji family ruled Fengyin, one can imagine the situation of the daughter of the Yun family!

At this moment, although Concubine Shu didn't say that Yun Fenghuang was acting against Meng Lang, she abruptly gave Ji a handle, and her frowning expression was enough for her relatives and sisters to follow in fear: "Then... what should we do now?"

"I can only take a step forward." Concubine Yun Shu concentrated for a moment and said helplessly, "I hope that Princess Minghui is here, so she can mediate for us. Although this princess is the biological daughter of the Empress Dowager Ji, she has the most eccentric personality. She is submissive and kind, but now the whole palace is filled with the exception of the Empress Dowager, only her words, Empress Ji can listen to her."

The implication is that Empress Dowager Ji is not such a docile and kind person.

In fact, this is indeed the case. The empress led a group of people to Mianfu Palace, and after the salute was completed, the Empress Dowager Ji raised her eyelids and asked Concubine Yue why she was nowhere to be seen: "She is an old man who has been in the palace for many years. Still so petty, without the airs that a concubine should have? The emperor's knees are empty, and the Ai family and the empress dowager feel anxious every time they think of it. She, who grew up with the emperor, is not to mention being more considerate, but she is jealous to the point of mourning Home is coming?"

Just ask Empress Ji, why doesn't such an unruly concubine give some color to her? It's a joke for newcomers, thinking that high-ranking concubines are all like Concubine Yue!

Empress Dowager Ji and Empress Ji are aunts and nephews, and their eyebrows are six to seven points alike. They are both graceful and graceful beauties. Like sisters with the queen, the grace and demeanor cultivated by the Zanying family for generations has become more and more natural after years of court influence.

Even though there was no thunderous anger at this moment, a few interrogations still made Highness Nong Rou quiet and hear the needles.

"My mother doesn't know, Concubine Yue is now being reflected on by her son-in-law Guan Yuzhu Palace." Empress Ji said lightly what happened in Yanfu Palace a moment ago. Unfolding, instead, he said in a somewhat reproachful tone that the queen dealt with it too lightly: "The Huzhu Palace has always been troubled, and almost everyone knows what is going on. The emperor and Concubine Yue are childhood sweethearts, and the Queen Mother Yuan is Concubine Yue. My dear aunt, for the sake of the two of them, the Ai family usually pretends to be deaf and dumb. I thought that Concubine Yue would be touched one day, and she would change her mind to serve the emperor and honor the Queen Mother Yuan... Who would have thought that she would get worse, Even Bao Lin, who had just been personally edicted by the Empress Dowager to enter the palace, dared to touch her! Why would she not allow others to continue the emperor’s heirs if she couldn’t give birth herself? It’s not to cut off the royal blood!”

These words were very serious, Empress Ji quickly knelt down and admitted her mistake, admitting that she mishandled it.

Concubine Zheng, Concubine Yun Shu, Concubine Xin, Mrs. Yao Ning and other high-ranking concubines also bowed down one after another, saying in unison: "I dare not!"

Yun Fenghuang and these low-ranking concubines followed obediently and knelt down, piercing their heads in the shape of a quail... Hearing that the concubines and the Empress Dowager Ji pleaded guilty and promised, it took a long time for the Empress Dowager Ji to calm down, hum One command: "Everyone get up."

Then they began to discuss how Concubine Yue should be punished for doing these things?

During this time, Yun Qingman's face turned pale, because she was thinking that the queen mother would not let things go easily, as her sister Concubine Shu said, and she wondered if the fire would burn on Yun Fenghuang's head?

Fortunately, she kept her head down and her status was not high, so no one noticed, only Yun Fenghuang who was next to her noticed, and quietly reached out and shook her wrist, signaling her not to be afraid.

They all lost their minds, and when they listened again, Empress Dowager Ji was already calling the shots, saying that the murder of Xinjin Baolin must be thoroughly investigated to the end! After all, although Baolin's status is not high, he is the one who serves Emperor Chunjia. If he can attack Baolin today, will he be able to kill the emperor tomorrow? Furthermore, this Baolin was chosen by the Empress Dowager, is this because of dissatisfaction with the Empress Dowager?

In short, Empress Dowager Ji thinks that the evidence of this matter is conclusive and the nature is so bad that it must not be ignored. It must be dug deep to find out the truth.

On this basis, she sent people to Huzhu Palace to summon Concubine Yue, scolded her head and face in front of the concubines of the Sixth Palace, and finally sent Yuan Shi to kneel at the gate of the palace: "When will you figure it out?" Get up again!"

Concubine Yue almost lost her temper and went crazy!

If she really found someone to murder Yun Fenghuang, she would admit that Dong Chuang was punished like this!

But she hasn't done anything yet!

Even discussing what happened yesterday in detail, she was the one who suffered the most, okay?

Now Empress Dowager Ji kept telling her to understand, she kept saying that she wanted Concubine Yue to come to her senses and completely confess and change her past... At this moment, she is so wronged that she can't wait for June Feixue, what do you understand? !

It's impossible to understand in this life, okay?

But Empress Dowager Ji didn't give her a chance to argue at all, she stopped talking and sat back slightly, and the strong and strong palace understood, stepped forward and covered Concubine Yue's mouth and dragged her out forcibly.

Perhaps Concubine Yue's hysterical but helpless expression pleased the Empress Dowager Ji very much. She was in a good mood from now on, in the normal mode of being a kind empress dowager. The concubines of the Jin Palace, such as Yun Qingman, and the beauty Xue Shi who was assigned to the Surong Palace presided over by the Xiaoji family in Zhaoyuan came out to look at them, said some words of encouragement, and gave some rewards... Originally nervous The atmosphere suddenly relaxed, and gradually some laughter could be heard.

Seeing the time passed, Empress Ji calculated that it was almost the same, so she got up and left.

Empress Dowager Ji nodded: "Go ahead, the Empress Dowager has been exhausted for the past two days, so don't bother me."

The queen respectfully said yes, and then she left in a mighty manner with a group of beautiful concubines just like when she came.

After going out, Empress Ji asked them to separate, and Yun Fenghuang was taken by Concubine Shu as a matter of course.

This time when she got on the chariot, Yun Qingman was very happy: "Sister, the Empress Dowager didn't mention Fenghuang just now, did she not care about it?"

In the end, Concubine Shu sneered and said, "Empress Ji is..."

She glanced at the words that Yun Fenghuang swallowed, only sighed, and said to Yun Fenghuang, "You know the Empress Dowager Yuan of Spring Palace?"

Yun Fenghuang also sighed, could he not know? After all, it is not possible for every dynasty and generation to have three empress dowagers co-existing... Oh, there is a queen dowager above the empress dowager of the country!

Even if she had heard about these things when she didn't think about entering the palace, after receiving the decree, Mrs. Lan even inquired about a lot of more profound news from Duke Yi's mansion, and stuffed it all in her head!

Of the three empress dowagers in the country today, the one with the strongest sense of presence and the highest status is of course the Empress Dowager Ji whom they have just met.

The other two are Yuan Shi, the aunt of Emperor Chunjia before he ascended the throne, who was revered as the empress dowager;

And the birth mother Qu Shi, the former concubine of the palace, is the Queen Mother of the Holy Mother.

Originally, according to the tacit understanding of adoptiveness, they would not be brought to the imperial capital, let alone both be honored as empress dowagers.

It is said that it involves the struggle between the royal family, eunuchs, officials, and the Ji family, but the specific details are beyond Yun Fenghuang's ability to understand at this moment. In short, since the Empress Dowager Yuan entered the palace, although she lived in seclusion like the Empress Dowager Qu, she did not care about world affairs, and only showed her face at grand ceremonies throughout the year, but those who knew a little bit about the inside story did not dare to underestimate her... because she was one of the three empress dowagers. The one with the deepest relationship with Emperor Chunjia.

Emperor Chunjia was a son of a concubine, and was raised by his aunt's mother as soon as he landed. The Empress Dowager Yuan, who had nothing to do with him, treated him as her own and devoted all her efforts to raising him. Later, let alone the Empress Dowager Ji who only met after Emperor Chunjia ascended the throne.

Now because Emperor Chunjia has not been in power yet, let alone has great power, and Empress Dowager Yuan's status is not obvious, she dare not compete with Ji's daughter.

But take care of Concubine Yun Shu, the three daughters of the Yun family... but there will be no problem. After all, the Ji family is also eager to support Emperor Chunjia's power to fight in the nest. If the Empress Dowager Yuan comes out to find a place for her niece, the Ji family will definitely applaud Applause.

"...Why did your Empress Dowager Daoji say that the queen's treatment is too light?" Concubine Shu taught her sister earnestly, "How can she lose face as a queen? She is just afraid that concubine Yue's aunt and nephew will not hate our sisters, so she saves up a borrowed knife to kill someone thoughts!"

Yun Qingman was worried, and was about to speak, but Yun Fenghuang was the first to shed tears, and asked Concubine Shu pitifully: "Madam, if I continue to stay in the Huzhu Palace, won't I be like those concubines before, how can I die? I don’t even know? Madam, can you help me change a place? Even if it’s a remote corner that has been in disrepair for a long time!”
