Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 77 Time

Ye Guogong tried his best to calm down, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this lowly servant girl is talking nonsense! What a lintel of my Ji family, as the saying goes, swans do not go with birds and birds, how can lions and tigers walk with dogs and horses, Xie family is also very sorry Regardless of your clan, they are all so-called big clans in remote places, but in fact they are all poor families, so what right do you have for my Ji clan to plot against you?"

"On the contrary, Concubine Xian, since she was strongly recommended by Concubine Zhenxishu to enter the palace, she has been spoiled and self-willed, domineering and domineering. Although she has been promoted to fourth concubine from concubine in just one year, she is still greedy and covets the position of Fengfeng!"

"According to what Chao said, his mother's husband's family and Xie's family are in the same hometown. It's a good relationship. How can I know that it's not the virtuous concubine who covets the queen's position and colludes with the other clans in Sangzi to set up this bitter trick to discredit my Ji family, Planting the Empress, tricking His Majesty into doing the Empress Dowager, and using Concubine Quanxian's ambitions?"

"My lord's words are wrong!" Before the words finished, Chao Jingyou quickly said, "Let's not mention that although the family of the women, mother, husband, and Xie family have no common hatred, they are in the same countryside, and have always had quarrels. Would you cooperate with the Xie family in doing such perverse actions? It is really a joke to say that the ambition of the virtuous concubine is really ridiculous: the virtuous concubine entered the palace last year and served His Majesty for many years!"

"If it's really the kind of person who is pampered, willful, domineering, and even covets the position of the phoenix, even though the Empress Dowager loves Concubine Zhenxishu, Concubine Zhenxishu is just one of the concubines of the Empress Dowager's grandson, how precious is she?" Your Majesty? Could it be that the Empress Dowager thinks of Concubine Yishu more than Your Majesty, knowing that Concubine Xian is unworthy, and still enlists her in the palace?"

"Of course, my lord may say that the Empress Dowager was deceived!"

"But if that's the case, after all these years, you should understand what kind of person the concubine Xian is. If the concubine Xian is not good, it goes up to the empress dowager, down to the concubines, and there are three empress dowagers and empresses in between. Now, no one is restraining the concubine Xian?! And let the concubine Xian be promoted all the way from the concubine?!"

"A commoner's family background is humble, and in the eyes of adults, she is just a poor family. Even so, there are also rules in the back house. There is a difference between the upper and the lower, and the distinction between the superior and the inferior."

"Could it be that the majestic harem is in such a mess that no one can control a concubine from a poor family in a remote place?!"

"This is too ridiculous and generous, and everyone in the world will be fooled!"

Ye Guogong listened, glanced at her sharply, but didn't say anything - he just spoke because Chunjia was the one who asked the question.

But now Chao Jingyou, a commoner's woman, came out to answer the question, and with his status and age, he didn't bother to fight with her in person!

So Min Yanghou stood up and said solemnly: "The lowly servant is full of sophistry! If you really have nothing to do with the concubine Xian, why do you keep defending the concubine Xian?"

Chao Jingyou eloquently said: "Although the women are not sensitive, they also know that the law of heaven is not happy with retribution! The concubine Xian is He and others, and the women who have been in contact with them for a long time are the most clear. Of course, it must be clearly explained to show the truth! Furthermore..."

She cast a sidelong glance at Min Yanghou, and sneered unceremoniously, "My lord, the reason why the woman came to the palace is to complain for her own family, her mother's family, and even the poor husband-in-law of the woman! How could this happen? Son, are you just arguing about whether the virtuous concubine is virtuous or not? To put it bluntly, this is a matter of the Tian family's inner house, so what's the matter with the women?"

Saying that, without giving Min Yanghou a chance to reply, he turned his head and kowtowed to the hall, "I beg Your Majesty to be the master for the women and their families!"

Chunjia reassured her like a gracious emperor, and asked her for a certificate—if Chao Jingyou hadn't betrayed her, it would be time for her to submit a certificate now. Regarding the certificate, the Ji family is very confident, that is From personal evidence and material evidence to the right time and place, people and all aspects have been considered carefully, and the evidence has been checked and polished by many aged and skilled staff.

After the promise was taken out, Chunjia was left speechless and could only admit it!

But since Chao Jingyou had long been on Chunjia's side, the evidence she presented now was of course going in the direction Chunjia wanted.

Not only that, even these evidences are vaguely arranged, and there is a shadow of Ji's arrangement, but it is just a hysterical attack from a different direction...

It shows that their behind-the-scenes arrangements are all within Chunjia's calculations.

Ye Guogong stood motionless on the head of the civil servants. He is now old and his bones are weak, but he can vaguely see the handsome outline of his youth, and his stature is still tall and burly. The purple robe and jade belt are added to the body, making it more rich and majestic.

Since he was in court, no matter how violent the storm was, Ji's faction felt at ease.

But at this moment, even he himself was a little unsteady.

I can't figure it out, when did Chunjia do it?

What's more, I couldn't figure it out, how could Chunjia keep everything secret?

The most incomprehensible thing is...he just sneaked a glance out of the corner of his eye, and the Prince Regent opposite him also had a moment of unconcealed surprise when Chao Jingyou betrayed him.

So this matter should have nothing to do with the Prince Regent?

Could it be that Chunjia did it alone? !

But where did he get this ability? !

At this moment, Ye Guogong felt a little dazed, and even wondered if he was really old? And Chunjia is really the master who responds to the destiny of heaven, so the will of heaven cannot be suppressed by himself, an old and important minister?

Even the Ji family is a stepping stone to give the other party a publicity in the dark?

Ye Guogong bit the tip of his tongue fiercely, and then forced himself to come back to his senses, and continued to pay attention to the progress of the matter - as a personal evidence was brought up, the discussion in the temple became louder and louder, and the Ji family certainly looked pale. Rutu, the rest of the people also have different expressions.

The royalists were naturally ecstatic, and their eyes on Dan Chi became more and more passionate. The courtiers of the regent's line also frowned, exchanged glances with each other, and hesitated to speak.

In addition, some neutral courtiers have long shrunk to the corner, lest they be involved in the impending turmoil.

Seeing that the Ji family was irrefutable, at this time Chao Jingyou suddenly stepped forward on her knees and kowtowed - everyone thought she was going to complain about her family again and beg the emperor to make decisions, but who knew that she was expecting Ai Ai and said: "The woman... ...When the woman pretended to be obedient to the Ji family before, she had won his trust, and she accidentally found out about one thing, which is of great importance. I beg Your Majesty to forgive the woman's crime of lying, and the woman dare to speak out!"

Hearing that the ministers other than the royalist faction felt a little bad.

But the emperor has quickly agreed: "I agree!"

"Your Majesty, on the day when Ji's threat was threatened, the woman refused because of the virtuous concubine. She said that the virtuous concubine had a high status in the palace and was very popular. The family of the common people is like ants. How dare you make things difficult for the virtuous concubine and the Xie family?" Chao Jing said with a low voice. Head, and said timidly, "At that time, the concubine Xian was still a real concubine. In order to persuade the women, the envoy of the Ji family once said, said..."

She seemed to be shivering due to excessive fear, and then continued, "The messenger of the Ji family said that the life and death of the Sangong and Six Courtyards are all in the hands of the Ji family, even the emperor's heirs are no exception, let alone the mere true concubine, that is, Zhenxishu Concubine. As the beloved daughter of Lord Yi, she is ranked among the fourth concubines, and won the emperor's heart, so why not just say nothing..."

Before he could finish speaking, Duke Yi was furious before Mrs. Ji could reprimand him. He picked up the Yahu and threw it on Duke Ye's head: "Old man! Give back my daughter's life!!!"

... When Yun Fenghuang arrived, the court hall was in chaos.

The palace servant who was ordered to report to the front did not come back for a long time. Just when she was getting impatient, she saw the palace maid running back wiping cold sweat and saluted in a hurry: "Your Majesty, something big is happening ahead! The Duke broke his head, and now His Majesty is sending someone to tell the imperial physician, Yan Yin Gonggong said, I am afraid that His Majesty will not be able to summon you in a while, why don't you go to the side hall first?"

Yun Fenghuang's expression was serious halfway through, and he abruptly turned into a stunned one. He took two deep breaths before nodding: "Talk about the ins and outs with Bengong."

After a while, the hustle and bustle from the court hall gradually calmed down, Yun Fenghuang also listened to the narration of the palace man, his expression was red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue and purple, he let out a sigh of relief, and said sadly: "This palace understands, You...you go down, I will wait for His Majesty here."

After the palace servant went down, the Qing people no longer concealed the joy in their brows and eyes, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, it's great, Your Majesty has such means, let's see if the Ji family can continue to be rampant!"

But seeing that there was no smile on Yun Fenghuang's face, instead it became more dignified, so he couldn't help being surprised, "Your Majesty?"

"Ms. Ji's painstaking calculations were all in vain, and instead she told His Majesty the oriole to follow..." Yun Fenghuang smiled coldly, "It's certainly gratifying, but for us..."

She sighed quietly, "You never thought about when your Majesty, Chao Jingyou who instigated rebellion?"

The Qing people were stunned, and said: "This...is about the time after the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, when the Imperial City Secretary went north to rehabilitate Miss Six?"

After all the calculations, this time is the most likely, right?

"When you are the regent and the Ji family, you are blind?" However, Yun Fenghuang sneered when he heard the words, "That time, His Majesty made a clever order, and the regent blocked it on the spot! Later, in the Northland, I was able to give the sixth sister 'Cleaning up the grievances' is already a blessing, but what do you want to do to take advantage of the situation?!"

"Then..." the Qing people said in a daze, "What does your empress mean?"

Yun Fenghuang's eyes were cold, but after staring at her for a while, he smiled wryly: "Forget it, what's the matter with you? You haven't come to the Imperial Capital at that time!"

The Qing people heard that this was wrong, and subconsciously said: "Could it be that your majesty... when the maidservants came to the imperial capital?"

"It wasn't long before I entered the palace, and I was still living in the Dendrobium Palace, under the restraint of the lord, Yuan Niangniang." Yun Fenghuang squeezed the center of his brows, and sighed with a smile, "I was trying to make things difficult for her, Your Majesty at that time Partially helping Yuan Niangniang, I was tired of Bengong making troubles for him again and again, so one day, by the Taiye Pool, I made Bengong dance non-stop... Bengong was forced to jump off the Taiye Pool halfway. escape punishment."

This action caused many changes, such as meeting Gong Xiangxiao by chance, which laid the groundwork for the private meeting with Qi Jiulu in the palace; Gained the queen's trust...

At that time, Chunjia was not yet in power, and was still in hibernation, and her power and position in the palace was vaguely lower than that of the empress.

So Yun Fenghuang and Empress Ji sang together, although he didn't dare to do anything to him, but he didn't let the people around him go.

Yes, before that, Chunjia's valet was not Yan Yin, but an old eunuch named Jiang Lan!

That is the confidant he brought to the Imperial Capital from Fuyang County, it is said that he is the waiter who has been in charge of his yard since he was a child, the old man of Fuyang Palace!

... At that time, Yun Fenghuang heard that Jiang Lan was exiled to the North after being exiled by the imperial staff, and wondered whether the emperor would take the opportunity to attack the North, and seemed to have reminded Empress Ji.

But there was no movement after that, she was busy dealing with all kinds of intrigues and trying to climb up, so she forgot about it.

Hearing Chao Jingyou's rebellion at this moment, he suddenly came to his senses: Counting the time Jiang Lan was exiled to the Northland, wouldn't it be possible to meet Chao Jingyou who was going south from the Northland to the Imperial Capital to reunite with her newlywed husband? !
