Chapter 89 Separation of Powers

Although Meng Youyi and Yuan Zhiniang didn't enter the palace for long, they were the masters hired by the Empress Dowager Yuan. Concubine Ruifei was in front, and the two of them never let up in watching her.

Therefore, she knew the truth of this matter only after a little understanding, and at the moment, the internal and external words provoked the anger of the two of them, and she felt that the heat was almost ready, so she said slowly: "You two are also young and ignorant, I don’t even think about who was the one who told you that you can choose your own place after you come here?”

"And after arriving today, who is it that takes you around to choose a place?"

"This is Mrs. Ji's intention to sow discord, but you are so stupid that you are being led by the nose!"

"I understand why the empress has fallen off the phoenix chariot and won't come to the palace anymore. Didn't she intend to just start and not plan to deal with the aftermath?"

Meng Youyi and Yuan Zhiniang were glaring at each other, and they were a little dazed after hearing these words.

After a while, both of them realized that they didn't dare to say anything: "Could it be the Empress Empress...?"

Meng Youyi couldn't help but said: "But I went to discuss with Yuan Zhaoyuan to change places before I was just a whim..."

"You are the daughter of a famous family, and your background is similar to that of the empress. Even if your father and brother are the masters, you can still have no contact with the family members in the imperial capital." Yun Fenghuang said disapprovingly, "Not to mention that the Ji family has been in power for many years, with eyes and ears all over the world Is it difficult to find out what you like? Knowing that Yefangyuan is what you like, but the director of the palace who arranged for you to choose around deliberately kept it secret, and only let you choose the current residence. Then even if you don’t find it today Yuan Zhaoyuan, when I see it in a few days, I have to go to sit, and after I leave, I hear that the chair I sat on was chopped up and burned as firewood, can you not be angry?"

He also said Yuan Zhiniang, "You are also a fool. The people below dragged the things from the main hall to use as firewood, and you still don't know anything."

Yuan Zhiniang was both ashamed and aggrieved: "My lady, I'm just here, and I'm instructing people to set up boxes and cages. I'm too busy with the mess in the front, and I really don't have time to take care of the back kitchen."

"That's true." Yun Fenghuang sighed, pinched the forehead, "This matter has happened to me today, but I was busy arranging a pair of imperial heirs, so I was negligent."

Meng Youyi and Yuan Zhiniang hurriedly said that this was nothing, it was because they were too clumsy, they were tricked by the queen without realizing it, and they bothered the concubine Xian, you and so on... Yun Fenghuang calmly listened to their flattery , I think it is good to have a high status and real power. Weren't these two concubines very proud when they first entered the palace?

On the scene, there is a rigid distinction between up and down, but the eyes are full of arrogance.

Looking at Yun Fenghuang's eyes reveals the conceit of "this one is just lucky and caught up with the opportunity, and I will only do better in exchange".

How long has it been? She's so cute and sensible.

A position of power is a wonderful thing.

She enjoyed it for a while before she opened her mouth slowly, and said: "Forget it, now that it's getting late, tomorrow I have to greet my mother, the Empress Dowager, you go back and settle down first, and leave the palace people involved behind. This palace asked people to tie up the director of the palace to come over for a thorough investigation. It was a hot day, we worked so hard to come here from Miyagi, didn't we just want to be comfortable? It turned out that we just came and caught up with such a thing. It seems that this palace It’s time to straighten things up and down.”

The so-called empress Ji deliberately designed the second concubine's estrangement was of course Yun Fenghuang's nonsense. Her purpose was the last sentence: find a reason to clean the palace while Empress Ji is away, and replace it with herself as much as possible. manpower!

So whether this disturbance was accidental or conspiracy, Yun Fenghuang didn't care at all.

In order to prevent the empress dowager or mother empress dowager from disturbing the situation after receiving the news, she acted swiftly and didn't send anyone to tell Chunjia.

The manager of the palace was appointed by Mrs. Ji. At first, she was a little arrogant, and she denied provoking the second concubine, and asked her why a concubine should move the steward personally appointed by the empress——Yun Fenghuang is in a hurry, how can there be? Kong and this kind of mushroom, ordered someone to kill him on the spot: "Check out the family members, and follow the rules. But a slave who obeyed orders fell in front of me and put on airs. Is it easy to bully when I am so weak?"

After killing the chickens to warn the monkeys, the people who remained were a lot more honest, so she took advantage of the situation to get to know the whole palace, replaced some people, added and subtracted some rules, and initially established authority. At this time, the empress dowager Sure enough, someone came from the side.

It was Empress Dowager Ji's attendant who came, with a very ugly face, he just entered the door, saluted, and asked with restraint: "The empress dowager said that there is an extra commotion in the palace today, dare to ask the concubine Xian, what happened?" thing?"

"It's all these damn servants, they don't care about the royal family's favor, and they just do things that eat inside and out." Yun Fenghuang said kindly, "I'm already dealing with it, please rest assured, Queen Mother, it's finishing up now Yes, it will be fine soon."

Hearing the words, the servant subconsciously glanced at the hall, and was stunned by several bloody acquaintances, but knew that Yun Fenghuang was not easy to mess with, so he hesitated to say goodbye, returned to Empress Dowager Ji, and hurriedly reported: " ...Your Majesty, Concubine Xian is going too far, you and Empress Empress have arranged for them to serve you for so many years, but the servant just looked at it, and it doesn't look like she can live."

"However, because of the dispute between the two concubines, such a murderous hand was committed!"

"Why does she care about the little dispute between the Meng family and the little Yuan family?" Empress Dowager Ji said with a mocking smile, "She just took this opportunity to eliminate dissidents... That's right, without the queen sitting in the palace, The Ai family and the Empress Dowager, the two elders, would not want to disregard their identities and fight with her personally, but even if there are others who are facing my Ji family, none of them are useful..."

She breathed a sigh of relief and said indifferently, "Anyway, this palace has already been replaced after the flood at the beginning of the year. Concubine Xian can deal with these old people if she wants to deal with them. You go and find out, if no family members are involved , then let the people below pay for it. If the concubine Xian intends to kill the grass and roots, then come and talk to the Ai family."

The attendant whispered: "The concubine Xian ordered her family members to take it together, saying... that the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, and the family members are definitely not good. If they let it go, they would be doing something bad."

Empress Dowager Ji was not angry, but said lightly: "If she wants to accuse Sang and scold Huai, let her go. A little verbal dispute is not a big deal."

"Empress Dowager." This servant is a confidant, hesitated at this moment, and whispered, "Why does the Empress Dowager stay in the palace this time? The loving mother Empress Dowager and the Holy Mother Empress Dowager dare not get up, and both have servants who have followed for many years. Even though the Empress Dowager stays, she still..."

Can't do anything.

As for Shun Jieyu's birth, the attendant didn't mention it directly, because everyone knew that Chunjia, who already had three sons and a daughter, no longer had such an urgent need for an heir.

Especially Shun Jieyu is not considered favored.

The queen killed Shun Jieyu and his wife, not to mention the gains, maybe she did Yun Fenghuang a favor.

Let the support of Yi Guogong's lineage be more concentrated on the head of Xuanqing Palace.

So the attendant was very puzzled, why did Empress Ji stay in Miyagi even though she hurt herself this time?

Isn't this an opportunity to give Concubine Xian a chance to seize power in the palace and clean it up!

...Yes, even the Empress Dowager Ji's people thought that it was the Ji family who did it by herself when the phoenix chariot threw the empress down, and the purpose was to let Empress Ji stay in the imperial capital.

"..." Empress Dowager Ji's eyes drifted a little when she heard these words, she was in a daze for a while, and then said calmly, "You don't need to worry about this."

The valet immediately stopped talking.

Because the empress dowager and empress dowager Ji stayed put, Yun Fenghuang cleaned up the palace very smoothly, so smoothly that she even wondered if those two wanted to kill herself without doing anything.

She even went to Chunjia to act like a spoiled child, asking him to instruct the imperial guards in the palace to watch over the Borrowing Moon House where she lives.

When Chunjia set off from the imperial capital, he brought a large number of government affairs on the road. Apart from occasionally summoning concubines to relieve fatigue, even when the emperor's chariot was marching, he was very busy.

Although the Secretary of the Imperial City would help him keep an eye on all kinds of movements in the front and rear palaces, they would not take the initiative to report interruptions for things that were not particularly important in such a time of daily affairs.

Therefore, I only found out about these turmoil after receiving her report, and I couldn't help crying and laughing: "Now that I know I'm afraid, why didn't you tell me when I started? Let me send you some people?"

"Aren't you afraid that the Empress Dowager or the Empress Dowager will send someone to stop them, and it will be difficult to do anything later?" Yun Fenghuang pulled his sleeves and scratched them, and said softly, "But who knows that they haven't made any movement at the moment. , as if I was really angry... the concubine feels guilty and afraid!"

Chunjia said to her: "If you were really afraid, would you still dare to do this?"

But cleaning up the palace was originally his idea, so naturally he would not blame the concubine Xian for this move, he teased a few words, and really ordered the guards to get more energy, not to slack off... Yun Fenghuang's goal was achieved, and he chatted and laughed with him for a while Also resigned.

Going back to Borrowing Moon Xiaozhu, after thinking about it for a while, he ordered someone to invite Concubine Xuan Rui over.

After a while, the second concubine was invited, and Yun Fenghuang asked people to watch tea and give them a seat, after a few words of pleasantries, the scene was cleared, and they got to the point, telling them about the dispute between Meng Youyi and Yuan Zhiniang.

The second concubine didn't know what she meant by saying this, so she cautiously dared not express her opinion.

Yun Fenghuang said: "I have a lot of things to do, and I have to take care of the emperor's heir, so I won't go around in circles with you. Although there are some grievances between us, in the final analysis, the disputes between us are all His Majesty's people. However, Ruo Guo The consequences of Ji's gaining power are self-evident! Therefore, Bengong thought, although the previous court meeting exempted the queen from confinement for three years and entrusted the palace affairs to Bengong and the two, but the queen is not in the palace at this moment, and everything All of them are taken care of by me, one is that my body is divided and lacks skills; the other is, although you are young and have little knowledge, how many people are there in the past and present who know it?"

"I can't let you fight all the time, how long will it take to be alone?"

"So for the next palace affairs, you two will deal with it. As for my palace, I'll let you take care of it, how about it?"

Concubine Xuan and Concubine Rui didn't know what to say for a while?

It is said that Concubine Xian is willing to delegate power, and her words are more nurturing, even if they are not grateful, they will be happy.

but……

Since Yun Fenghuang said these words, I always feel like there is some kind of conspiracy?

Seeing that they didn't answer immediately, Yun Fenghuang raised his eyebrows: "What? You don't want to, or you still think it can't be done?"
