Chapter 97 Concubine Xuan Asks for Help

When Yun Fenghuang arrived at Xingxintang, the rain was getting heavier.

The rain in this season is hotter than the next one, but the palace was built on the mountainside after all, and got the cool wind from all directions of the Qishan Mountain. The raindrops brought down countless residual flowers and fallen leaves, and the atmosphere of late autumn was abruptly cast.

Today she is wearing a wide-sleeved short jacket embroidered with oleander branches and leaves on a light pink background. The rain on the road has stained a little bit of crimson red. It looks like flying flowers are scattered all over her sleeves, showing a different look. Merry.

Entering the door with steam in the air to salute Chunjia, the Son of Heaven, who had been exhausted by the paperwork for a long time, felt sober for a while, rubbed his brows and screamed, and let the left and right back down.

Seeing this beloved concubine approaching, he smiled and put down the vermilion pen, hugged her on his lap, and said: "So now?"

"I just heard the news and I feel uneasy. Why don't you come to ask His Majesty for more information?" Yun Fenghuang nodded his arm and said lazily, "The people of the king of Zhou and Han came to the capital but did not go to the palace, but to the imperial capital. I'm looking for Ningbo's Mansion over there. Your Majesty, you said that this matter is troublesome. You have been on the throne for almost ten years, and you have been in power for a long time. Those two still don't trust you? I'm afraid they were picked up by someone early in the morning. let's go?"

Chunjia understood her nature, and she was not so easy to be fooled. Hearing the words, he smiled lightly and said, "Those two are Taizong's beloved sons, old vassal kings of the dynasty, and their status in the clan is deeply rooted. It is the regent who met face to face. I also want to say hello to Uncle Wang... They probably want to follow the rules."

According to the rules, this is the idea of ​​the Fuyang King's lineage wanting to have a step-heir, so of course it is the idea of ​​giving priority to the Fuyang King's lineage's concubine.

So the envoys of the two feudal lords went to Xingning Bo's mansion to find ways to win the favor of Queen Mother Yuan, there was nothing wrong with it.

"Your Majesty, I only met Chao Shi before I became a concubine." Yun Fenghuang calmly stroked his neck with his fingertips, and said softly, "She said that she ordered Chao Shi to cheat my concubine. The Sixth Sister's person came out of Xingning Bo's residence. Of course, this matter cannot be blamed on the Yuan family in the final analysis, but it is the Ji family who is playing tricks behind the scenes...Your Majesty, you said that this time, the envoys of the two vassal kings went to Uncle Xingning Mansion, do you want to follow the footsteps of the loving mother Empress Dowager, or do you want to have something to do with the Ji family?"

"After all, it's not a secret that the Empress Dowager Mother and the Empress Dowager Mother are ill. Even if the two vassal kings are far away in the fiefdom and have no information, it's impossible for the envoy to go to Beijing without inquiring about it, right?"

"Even if they want to intercede with the loving mother empress dowager, how can the loving mother empress dowager pay attention to them at this moment?"

"And who doesn't know that the empress dowager loves you the most—it's better to visit her majesty instead of wasting time to disturb the empress dowager!"

She paused with her fingertips, and sneered, "This is not a concubine's slander, no matter how you look at it, it's suspicious!"

Chunjia said calmly: "This is a matter of the clan, and the Ji family can't talk about it. What's the use of them looking for the Ji family?"

"The Ji family can't talk about it, but isn't there still the empress dowager and mother empress dowager?" Yun Fenghuang said immediately, "there is still the empress in the palace. Besides, who knows what the Ji family promised them in private What if there is more than one prince? In that case, maybe the two kings will be blinded by profit, and feel that it doesn’t matter if they offend His Majesty at the moment, anyway, after the Ji family’s affairs are completed, they will have to thank them again, right?”

He sneered again, "Actually, to put it bluntly, they are relying on their age and seniority, and think that His Majesty is young and good-natured... Otherwise, how could there be an envoy from the feudal king who came to the imperial capital and didn't come to see you first? Speaking of which, you were the one who disclosed the news to them where?"

"I already know about this, and I'm not angry yet, so you're getting angry?" Chunjia couldn't help smiling when she saw her angry look, stretched out her hand to pinch her cheek, and said with a smile , "Even though Uncle Xingning's Mansion is a bit confused, it's not completely unreasonable. I'm telling people to watch over this matter, so don't worry about it."

Yun Fenghuang thought to himself, is this possible?

Concubine Yunxian has only received benefits a few times since she came to power. If these two vassal kings refute her face this time, and the signboard is smashed, then when they have business to seek the royal family, they will consider other ways instead of first. Thinking of bribing her, how much would it cost? !

Just thinking about it makes me so sad that I can't breathe!

Needless to say, the dog emperor, the King of Zhou and the King of Han are sure to fall for her!

These two vassal kings are not so unlucky, there is no end to this matter!

"Your Majesty, if Uncle Xingning's mansion is really sensible, they shouldn't have met the envoys of King Zhou and King Han, but sent them to the palace to beg to see you!" She said immediately, "After all, how can the Yuan family have the right to deal with this matter?" Gossiping? It’s not easy for a loving empress dowager who can make up her own mind. If they don’t tell His Majesty, what’s the point of taking this matter by themselves?”

The voice lowered, "It's not that I don't know who the culprit is at Wangling's side, and I don't think they are the opponents of the Ji family? Now that the big lala is taking matters into his own hands, I am not afraid of falling into the trap again! Forget it, after all, it is the natal family of the loving mother Empress Dowager, His Majesty always wants to give them some dignity."

"But if this news gets out, people will think that the Yuan family will not do small things. The key is that King Zhou and Han Wang would rather find someone to deliver a message to the sick mother Empress Dowager than come to greet you first. Maybe there is something wrong. Follow the example and underestimate the age of His Majesty!"

And Chunjia is young, but the regent is a generation older than him - people who are looking for the Empress Dowager Yuan today, do they think that young emperors like Chunjia are unreliable, and the clan affairs have to be old People, such as the regent, can only count when they say it?

When it came to this, Chunjia's face turned ugly, but it was only for a moment, then she turned nonchalant, and asked her with a smile: "Did King Zhou and King Han offend you? Tell you to change your way to speak ill of them."

"I have never met the two vassal kings at all, how could I offend the law?" Yun Fenghuang refused to admit it, and said, "I only think about His Majesty, but Your Majesty thinks about him like this, so he won't come."

As he spoke, he pushed him angrily, and was about to walk away.

Of course Chunjia stopped her, coaxed her a few words, and said: "There is a reason why the envoys of the two kings did not come to the palace. Some of their concubines and concubines are related to my biological grandmother. There are also contacts during festivals. At that time, the queen mother was responsible for presiding over Zhongfu, and she had some friendship with them. Therefore, the envoy came over and first posted a post to the Xingning uncle's mansion, probably after planning to catch up on the past, and then come to see him."

Yun Fenghuang's background is too low, and he knows very little about the marriages between clans and nobles.

Chunjia didn't talk about this, but she didn't know it at all, but she didn't believe it very much, she said secretly: I heard that the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law between Fuyang Zhuang Concubine and Queen Mother Yuan is not very good. His mother died of illness, and his mother Zhuang Taifei followed her away... It is said that he is the only son who is heartbroken, who knows what happened?

Maybe it was the Empress Dowager Yuan who was angry at the time of grief?

So, relatives of Concubine Zhuang, what are you talking about with Empress Dowager Yuan?

"But the loving mother, the Empress Dowager, is ill now, how can she have the strength to reminisce with them?" She murmured, "From my own perspective, those people did it on purpose to disrespect His Majesty! You should show them some color!"

Chunjia hugged her waist and smiled: "I know my concubine loves me so much, so when they come to the palace in a few days, I will definitely vent my anger on you, okay?"

Yun Fenghuang poked his fingers, and said with a smile: "Why are you venting your anger on this concubine? What is it that they value when I am a woman? I am aggrieved for His Majesty! Everyone in the world knows that His Majesty is magnanimous, so these vassal kings All of them have the courage to put His Majesty first! Let them be spoiled! There is no good thing!"

As he said, he hugged Chunjia's neck affectionately and acted like a baby, "It's better for your majesty, your majesty is so kind, but the little guy who made the screwdriver trembled!"

She stayed with Chunjia for a long time, and then she tidied up her dress and Shi Shiran left.

"Mother, Your Majesty didn't agree to punish King Zhou and King Han." On the way back to Borrowing Yue Xiaozhu, the Qing people were a little disappointed, and whispered to Yun Fenghuang, "Does Your Majesty plan to choose Fuyang King from the two of their children?" The heir of the same line?"

It doesn't matter if the complaint is unsuccessful, the key is that their mother has already accepted the benefits of King Changle.

If he can't help King Changle succeed... Even if those things are not returned, Yun Fenghuang's reputation of "being able to do things" will not be preserved.

So let alone whether he can deceive the king of Zhou and the king of Han, the key is that the candidate for the heir must be someone who has benefited Yun Fenghuang!

"What's the hurry? It's only just started, and no one has come." Yun Fenghuang was also very upset, but he still yelled at him calmly, "It's not like I can only go to His Majesty this time!"

As time goes on, water drips through rocks, and she doesn't believe that those two vassal kings who don't have winks can't be killed!

Back at Borrowing Moon Xiaozhu, Concubine Xuan and Concubine Rui had been waiting here for a while, chatting casually, when Yun Fenghuang came in, she hurriedly got up and saluted.

"Let's all sit down." Yun Fenghuang was not in a very high spirits, took the lead and sat down first, Fang glanced at the second concubine and the brochures in their hands, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Concubine Xuan and Concubine Rui looked at each other, and said together: "Concubine Huixian, it's time to organize the birthday of the loving mother Empress Dowager, but the loving mother Empress Dowager has not come to escape the summer heat this year, this matter...?"

"The loving mother, the Empress Dowager, has always been frugal and doesn't like extravagance." Yun Fenghuang pondered for a while, and said, "Besides, her old man's body is out of harmony, so she can't make troubles...let's keep everything simple."

Concubine Xuan said: "Your Majesty, it's just that it's simple... but what rules should I use?"

You ask this palace, who is this palace asking.

Yun Fenghuang thought to himself, it wasn't like this last year either.

She thought about it for a while, and felt that it would be safe for Chunjia to make a decision on the Empress Dowager Yuan's matter, so she said: "This is the first time this Palace has encountered such a thing that the loving mother Empress Dowager is not in the palace to celebrate her birthday, why don't you go and ask Your Majesty for instructions. "

Concubine Xuan quickly agreed, and then said: "Your Majesty, there is one more thing, can I ask you to be the master of my concubine?"

"You are Concubine Xuan, why should I be in charge of this?" Yun Fenghuang asked with a glance at her.

Concubine Xuan just smiled wryly: "I've had a lot of civet cats running over there. It's been a few days, and I can't drive them away. After all, the empress dowager ordered them to be released. I can't do anything to them... No, I have always Lay there. Although nothing has happened so far, all kinds of movements at night are very noisy! The most terrible thing is that there is still Mrs. Liang there? She is afraid of cats. Trembling! The concubine looks worried!"

"Then why don't you just go find your mother, the empress dowager?" Yun Fenghuang asked unhappily, "Are you still afraid that you won't be able to meet your mother, empress dowager?"

Concubine Xuan said coyly: "I am... I am clumsy in speech and speech, I am afraid that if I say something bad at the time, I will make my mother and empress dowager angry."

She was afraid of going to talk to Empress Dowager Ji, but instead of driving the civet cats away, she was punished by Empress Dowager Ji - because before Empress Dowager Ji returned to the palace, she had the idea of ​​killing all the civet cats raised in Yunfenghuang Palace And after putting it into action, Empress Dowager Ji didn't have a good impression of her among the concubines.

Although Yunfeng Huangding had been pulling hatred in front of her before, Empress Dowager Ji hadn't had time to do anything to Concubine Xuan, but if Concubine Xuan bumped into her by herself...it would be to vent her anger on Empress Dowager Ji.

Where does Concubine Xuan dare to go?

She suspected in her heart that these civet cats would come to her door, maybe it was because the Empress Dowager Ji planned to settle accounts with her, just waiting for her to be unbearable.

Seeing that Yun Fenghuang didn't want to take care of this matter, Concubine Xuan gritted her teeth and said in a low voice: "It seems that there are some elder brothers in the imperial capital who are not yet married. I have a shameless concubine, and there is a concubine at home..."

She really had enough of those civet cats, she had no choice but to sell another sister.

Anyway, it doesn't seem to be a big deal to sell my sister after selling my brother-in-law once... right?
