Chapter 122 Yun Fenghuang Himself Almost Believed It!

Seeing that Chunjia brought Yun Fenghuang over, the Empress Dowager was not very interested. Now that she heard the words, she didn't even look at her, she just spoke to Chunjia: "The Ai family just heard about the Liudan hall. I was shocked by the incident! Since when did such an accident happen? The poison has been put into the emperor’s breakfast, and everyone inside and outside is dead? Not at all. use!"

"It wasn't very peaceful in the palace at this time last year. The queen said she was sick, but it didn't reach this point!"

"The Ai family really gets angry when they think about it. They usually say that the flowers are good and the rice is good. It seems that anyone can become the master of the palace. What happened? The queen just stayed in the palace city to recuperate, and it's not like she's gone. Just come out with these moths!"

"Knowing that the emperor is generous and kind, you have always been reluctant to criticize those around you."

"But this time it's really outrageous!"

"You are hesitant and reluctant to say what to do, but the Ai family doesn't follow it—the emperor's son of the Ai family is not blessed, and he left at a young age, and there is no prince under his knees. It is rare that you are a filial and sensible child. The family sees you as no different from your own grandson, if you have been wronged like this, if the Ai family doesn't make the decision for you, then what kind of imperial grandmother?"

She rambled on and didn't give Chunjia a chance to interject, and then scolded Yun Fenghuang, "Concubine Xian, are you guilty?!"

Before Yun Fenghuang came here, she had thought that the fire would probably burn on her own head, because she knew that Chunjia would definitely sideline her, and she didn't have to panic, so she left her seat and bowed down, and said with a blank face: "Back to the Empress Dowager If so, I don’t know what I did wrong to offend you?”

"Why are you pretending to be confused?" The Empress Dowager sat high on the phoenix seat, looked at her with lowered eyes, and said coldly, "If you just offend Aijia, a person of Aijia's age will not bother to care about you! What do you do? Since you came to the palace this year, you took care of things at the beginning, and you have calmed down the dispute between Mrs. Manya and Yuan Zhaoyuan...but what's next?"

"It's good that you want Concubine Xuan and Rui Concubine to practice more so that she can be on her own sooner, but you're too trusting—you just leave the job after handing it over to them, right?"

"Those two have only entered the palace for a few days, and you haven't figured out the rules in the palace yet, how dare you throw them away like this?!"

"If you keep watching up and down in person, your shrewdness, which is praised by everyone from the emperor to the empress to the empress dowager, will let that black-hearted thing mess with the emperor's breakfast ?!"

The Empress Dowager sneered, "Say it yourself, are you guilty?!"

"...Concubine is guilty." The empress dowager's questioning is well-founded, and Yun Fenghuang can't admit to being incompetent. If she personally watched the affairs of the palace, it would not be able to stop the emperor from wanting to make trouble in the breakfast. , so I can only admit it, "The concubine's negligence has caused His Majesty to be frightened, please punish the Empress Dowager!"

"You are the emperor's man, and the Ai family doesn't want to overstep and take over." The Empress Dowager said coldly, "The Ai family only asks you, you have stayed in the Liudan Hall for a long time today, but who is so bold?"

"Grandmother, calm down." Chunjia came out to smooth things over in a timely manner, and said gently, "Concubine Xian is always sensible and considerate, but people are not sages and sages can do nothing, and what happened this time is not what she thought. It's nothing serious. Obstacles. Due to an accident in Liudantang, the Zhaoyi Yin family and Concubine Xuan Rui have always been friends, and now they are naturally not suitable to deal with this matter, but Concubine Xian has to make the decision.",

"That's why I asked Concubine Xian to atone for her crimes and thoroughly investigate the truth."

"It's just that since the culprit dared to tamper with my breakfast, he was naturally prepared. After this day, there are only some clues, and the real culprit has not been known yet."

The empress dowager frowned, very dissatisfied: "The emperor is too tolerant of the concubine Xian. When she was not away from the summer heat, she would help the queen and assist the sixth palace. During the summer vacation, the queen is not here. Liu Gonghe deserves to be watched by her. Now that something has happened, how can you act as if nothing happened, and even entrust a heavy responsibility?! You must know that merit must be rewarded and demerits must be punished, that's the only way!"

"What the imperial grandmother said is true, but apart from the virtuous concubine, there is no one else in the palace who is suitable to preside over the overall situation." Chunjia said slowly, "After all, the queen is not here, not to mention that Empress Ji was injured before, and now Minghui is young. She has been ill for a long time, and said she has improved a bit, but it has been inconvenient for her to visit, and I am afraid it is mostly comforting... If this matter is not resolved for a day, I am afraid that Empress Ji and Grandmother will not have time to be distracted."

"Concubine Xuan Rui needs to avoid suspicion. She is also young and inexperienced. How can she handle such an important matter?"

"Although Mrs. Yaoning below is an old man, she has always been upright, and I'm afraid she is too weak."

"Mrs. Manya and Zhaoyuan are newcomers who just entered the palace this year. Zhaorong is pregnant and can't take care of herself. Xiuyuan and the others are too low-ranking. How can they have the right to make decisions for Zhaoyi?"

"You said you don't want Concubine Xian to do things, who else can you let?"

The emperor sighed, "It's also because Minghui is not doing well these days, and made the emperor's grandmother and Empress Ji worry about it. Otherwise, who would dare to do such a thing under the eyes of the emperor's grandmother?"

The empress dowager's complexion was not very good-looking. She suspected that Chunjia was tactfully accusing her and the empress dowager Ji of only Gu Minghui's disregard for the emperor. That's why the poisonous imperial meal happened—but she didn't have any evidence, so she couldn't just turn her face on it. He said coldly: "How long will it take for Concubine Xian to find out the truth?"

"We have to convince Zhaoyi first." Yun Fenghuang changed his mind, showing embarrassment, and decisively sold Yin Jian, "After all, Zhaoyi loves the dowry, so torture is not allowed, and the concubine is not sure, what those people said is true or not?"

No matter what Chunjia thought in her heart when she said this to Chunjia, she didn't have any special instructions anyway.

But the Empress Dowager became angry when she heard it, and she raised her hand and slapped the tables in front of her, causing the entire tea set to jump up: "Bastard!"

She pointed at Yun Fenghuang and started cursing, saying, Concubine Xian, you are completely confused!

When and what happened, Yin Zhaoyi was young and ignorant, and you, a wise concubine who entered the palace a year earlier and has always been sensible, let her? !

"I think when you first entered the palace, you were just a little Baolin, and even Concubine Yue couldn't hold you down. Now that you are a concubine, you can't even control Zhaoyi?!" The Empress Dowager He said angrily, "Isn't it that these years of palace life have been passed on to dogs? Aijia doesn't matter whether you intend to or not, in short, it will take three days at most! If the real culprit is not found within three days, Aijia will die." I'm asking you directly!"

While speaking, his eyes glanced at Chunjia who seemed to be about to speak, and his voice raised another pitch, "Emperor, please stop pampering her! Otherwise, the Ai family will really be angry!"

Chunjia smiled and said: "Grandmother, don't be angry, if you are angry for my sake, but it's not my fault."

"It was originally your fault." The Empress Dowager said angrily, "How important is it that the Son of Heaven is attached to the country? If such a big matter happened, if you don't investigate it thoroughly yourself, and leave it to a concubine who doesn't care, you won't say anything." Don't come to Ai's family to say something! Do you know how worried Ai's family was when they heard about it just now?"

She choked up as she spoke, wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and said in a trembling voice, "Sorry for the poor family, first sent away the emperor Shenzong, and then sent away the emperor. It is so easy to have you as an heir, do you have to follow me?" They are the same, cruelly abandon Aijia and take a step first? Even if you don’t feel sorry for Aijia, you don’t feel sorry for the newcomers who entered the palace in the past two years who are still in their prime, and you don’t feel sorry for the children under your knees who are still alive. In swaddling? Without the protection of you, the Son of Heaven, what will they do in the future?"

These words of reproach were reasonable, just like a real grandmother, Chunjia was in a trance for a moment, then came back to her senses, smiled and said: "The emperor's grandmother taught me the lesson."

Originally, he should have said a few more words in this atmosphere, but Chunjia fell silent after finishing this sentence.

So the Empress Dowager couldn't cry anymore, she covered her handkerchief and sobbed and sighed: "The Ai family knows that you didn't listen to Ai's words at all!"

"How dare I?" Chunjia had a gentle attitude and a sincere tone, but the emotion in his eyes did not fluctuate, and he said softly, "I also ask the emperor's grandmother to calm down. Minghui is not good. If the emperor's grandmother has something good or bad, but teach me what to do?" What to do?"

The empress dowager choked up and said: "All of you are worried, Ai's family is old, and I can't control you, that's all, you go down!"

... A moment later, the imperial concubine who was euphemistically expelled from Jin Louxuan looked at each other in the imperial chariot.

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager originally intended to make use of the topic to hold on to my concubine, but after His Majesty repeatedly mentioned Princess Minghui, the anticlimax ended." Yun Fenghuang calmed down and said in a low voice, "I'm afraid Princess Minghui's illness There was such a mystery that the Empress Dowager didn't dare to keep us any longer, so she immediately sent us out."

Chunjia pondered, "It's just... what happened to Minghui?"

Yun Fenghuang felt a little regretful, he knew that at the beginning of the year he would not have given the Queen the idea of ​​flooding, otherwise it would be useful at this moment - if the Xunfeng Pavilion is flooded, the Empress Dowager Ji and Princess Minghui must be rescued, right?

At that time, the army was in turmoil, and people were asked to watch in the dark in advance, so they might be able to see through Ji's plan.

But not now, she can't offer this trick now.

Not only will it arouse Ji's suspicion, but it will also remind Chunjia of the leak in the palace at the beginning of the year...

"Did anyone mention Her Royal Highness Princess Minghui's marriage these days?" She thought for a while, then asked the emperor, "There is also Qin Tianjian, did you mention Her Highness Princess Minghui's fate?"

Chunjia shook his head and said: "There has never been such a thing, otherwise how could I not know?"

When the news of Princess Minghui's serious illness just came out, Chunjia suspected that it was Ji's valued son-in-law, who was afraid that she would not be able to pass her test, so she let the princess pretend to be sick, and waited for the right opportunity, and then used the princess's life as a risk. Chip, forcing himself to nod.

But up to now, there have been no similar rumors from the former harem.

This makes people incomprehensible.

"Your Majesty, do you want Qin Tianjian to do the math for His Royal Highness?" Yun Fenghuang rolled his eyes and suggested, "Maybe there is any way to make His Highness recover soon?"

Since the Ji family is standing still and we have no way to start, let's help them move - the emperor can arrange the Qin Tianjian himself, say something about Princess Minghui's illness, and force the Ji family to do something?

She was still in the mood to advise the emperor at the moment, but as a result, the night passed, and when she woke up the next day, she was told a rumor: It was rumored in the palace that Liu Dantang was done by her virtuous concubine.

The reason is very simple. Although Yin Zhaoyi is not the most popular in the palace, he is the one who single-handedly provoked the concubines to strive for favor.

And the last one who tried every means to win favor regardless of his dignity was Yun Fenghuang himself.

Relying on this high position, the big man in the palace who is second only to the queen, and the virtuous concubine who raised two emperors' heirs, would you like to see others imitate it? Besides, Yin Zhaoyi is both talented and beautiful, young and beautiful, and has a good family background, and she can still give birth!

So, can Concubine Xian tolerate her?

Not only can't he tolerate it, but he has to take advantage of Yin Xuan's downfall to teach everyone a good lesson, that is, dare to show his head rashly to flatter the emperor, even if it is Yin Xuan's status, it will not end well!

In this way, everyone is as quiet as a chicken like in the early years, and everyone is the same when they see the emperor, who is well-behaved and sensible, showing the lively and quick thinking of the concubine Xian, isn't she satisfied?

... What he said really made sense, Yun Fenghuang himself almost believed it.

She laughed angrily: "Where did this word come from in the first place?"

The people below were rushing to provide her with news, and another palace official came in to report the bad news: Yin Qu begged to see Chunjia, and complained for his daughter—yes, he had already heard the latest rumors , this face-to-face, the spearhead is directed at Yun Fenghuang!
