Chapter 22: What Misunderstanding Do You Have About Ben Chenggui?
The young man looked indifferent: "I originally wanted to kill you directly..."
When he said this, his tone was calm, and there was no murderous intention around him, but there was an unprovoked coldness in his body, which was not like a threat.
Yun Fenghuang only felt that her scalp was numb. After all, she guessed that she couldn't beat this guy. This kind of feeling of fighting for the sake of others was simply... forcing herself to stay calm and listen attentively, only to hear this person say, "But when she was about to take action, , saw the strangle marks on your neck..."
And then feel pity and raise your hand?
Yun Fenghuang curled her lips secretly, she would not believe such nonsense.
As a result, people followed up and said, "Then I want to see the follow-up."
"..." Yun Fenghuang said in confusion, "What's the follow-up?"
"Two possibilities." The young man said softly, "The first one is directed at me; the second one has nothing to do with me and is just a collision. No matter which one it is... I am very curious, no matter how you wake up Come on, what’s going to happen?”
Is this person perhaps hysterical?
Do you dare to take such a risk while in palace confinement?
You must know that the several factions in charge are checking and balancing each other at the moment, and no one can cover the sky with one hand. This person still dares to do this. I don’t know if he is too arrogant or has his own back-up plan?
Yun Fenghuang stared at him and smiled: "Then which one do you want?"
The young man said with great interest: "I would like to hear the details."
"If you wish to have anything to do with you, please send me back to the harem quietly before dawn." Yun Fenghuang said sternly, "I will be rewarded in the future; if you wish to have nothing to do with you, please send me back to the harem quietly before dawn." Send me back to the harem, and as long as I land on the shore, I will be a stranger to you and have nothing to do with you. From now on, I will not disturb you on my way back to the bridge... What do you think, your honor?"
"..." The young man was silent for a moment, then suddenly let go of her wrist and slowly sat up.
He was taller than Yun Fenghuang, which was not obvious when he was lying down. After he stood up, he looked at Yun Fenghuang in a condescending manner and said, "Okay."
Yun Fenghuang was slightly startled. She just tried to test her, but she didn't expect that she would get the answer so easily?
Um……
After careful analysis, this is not unreasonable. After all, this young man is not like an eunuch. Yun Fenghuang needs to keep his name clean, so why doesn't he need to avoid taboos?
So either kill someone and silence them, or keep quiet about it, right?
However, the above are just normal people's thoughts. Yun Fenghuang felt relieved in his heart. He heard the young man say: "It's just that the waves in the palace are treacherous. I don't know what tomorrow will be like today. I don't have to repay later, just now."
Yun Fenghuang was stunned for a moment and said: "But I have nothing to offer now..."
"It doesn't matter." The young man looked at her with cold eyes, but what he said was, "A moment of spring is worth a thousand pieces of gold."
Yun Fenghuang: "..."
She calmed down for a moment and said with a smile on her face, "It turns out that your Majesty is a gentleman who doesn't bully the darkroom."
The young man seemed unable to hear the sarcasm in her tone, and An Ran said, "I never force anyone."
If he hadn't been able to defeat him, Yun Fenghuang could have ripped off this man's head on the spot!
She looked at him for a moment, and the corners of her mouth curved slightly: "In that case, I would like to thank you for your kindness... Farewell!"
As he said this, he wrapped himself in a quilt and went to the ground. He raised his hand and pulled out a pile of dresses on the hanger, turned around and entered the screen.
After a while, he was dressed neatly and his long hair was tied up loosely. He walked out without looking at the young man who was still sitting in the curtain.
Then after taking a few steps, he was forced back into the inner room by the shining blade.
Yun Fenghuang then asked: "Does this mean you don't force people?"
"I mean I never force anyone." The young man said calmly, "As for my men... I certainly won't force them not to force anyone."
Yun Fenghuang felt that this shameless style was worth learning. She walked back and sat down on the embroidery stool facing the bed and said: "I am the beauty Xue from Su Rong Palace. May I ask who you are?"
The young man said calmly: "My father, Duke Yi, is the heir apparent."
...I believed your evil deeds!
If he is pretending to be another prince, Yun Fenghuang is really not sure. After all, she has been very well-behaved in the two years since she came to the Imperial Capital. Except for her uncle and cousin, she has not seen any foreign men at all. However, Yun Qike, the eldest son of Duke Yi, is Yun Qingman's half-brother. She and Yun Qing After all, Man had been very close to each other for two or three years, how could it be possible that they had never met each other?
"Prince Yun." Yun Fenghuang said with a calm face, "I have just entered the palace and have not yet been favored. If I lose my virginity here, the consequences will be self-evident. When the time comes, I am afraid that the prince will not be able to escape the wrath of the royal family. .”
The young man said indifferently: "Death under peonies is like being a ghost. Besides, Chunjia relies heavily on my family now, how can he care about your little concubine?"
"Your Majesty may be lenient," Yun Fenghuang said, "but the Queen has always respected the rules."
The young man said: "There is no rule in the palace about inspecting Yuanpa. If Chunjia doesn't say anything, how will the queen know? Is it possible that the palace in the palace will go to Surong Palace to listen to it in person?"
You are really thoughtful.
Yun Fenghuang smiled: "The prince is a young and talented man with a noble family background. What kind of beauty is there? Why bother with my concubine's beauty?"
The young man's expression was indifferent: "How can an ordinary beauty compare with a concubine? The emperor's forbidden beauty does not matter what her appearance and temperament are, but this level of status, just thinking about it, makes people want her."
"..." Yun Fenghuang was silent for a moment, then suddenly chuckled, "So is this why His Majesty rarely visits Qiongfang Palace?"
Mrs. Yaoning lives in Qiongfang Palace.
The legitimate daughter of Uncle Zhaowu, the right-hand man of the regent.
What she said was nothing more than a tactful way of pointing out the other party's identity.
The prince regent, Gong Xiangxiao!
"This is a forbidden matter." Gong Xiangxiao looked at her with strange eyes for a moment, then Fang Youyou said, "How did the foreign minister know about it?"
Yun Fenghuang looked at him for a moment, then asked tentatively: "If the prince has an order, why not speak up?"
Gong Xiangxiao laughed gloomily: "As expected of Yun Chenggui, who made His Majesty's heart suffer a big loss just after entering the palace and still has nothing to say. Such a clever mind and really considerate... But this prince How dare you dispatch Chenggui easily despite your stupid qualifications?"
This means she is required to surrender her name.
The most ready-made thing is that Gong Xiangxiao just proposed that a spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold...
To be honest, the prince regent has good looks and is younger than Chunjia. If we were together in the flower front and moonlight, Yun Fenghuang wouldn't mind giving Emperor Chunjia a cuckold.
But not right now.
Gong Xiangxiao made it clear that he wanted her to be used for his own purposes. Now that everything was going according to his will, wouldn't it be tantamount to acquiescing that he was a master and servant?
She has no interest in being inferior to others.
"...The reason why I entered the palace is all thanks to my uncle and Duke Yi." Yun Fenghuang pondered for a moment, then said, "But my aunt was devoted to me wholeheartedly. When I left my hometown, When I came to the imperial capital from afar, my aunt regarded me as my own child, and I also regarded my aunt as my mother... My uncle's official position was not high. Even if he lived next to the Yiguo Duke's palace, he could do whatever he wanted with his status as the heir apparent. What’s the difficulty?”
Gong Xiangxiao shook his head when he heard this: "If it were someone else, I would have accepted it. But Yun Chenggui is smart and intelligent, so I think it is more secure."
The implication is that you, Yun Fenghuang, are not a fuel-efficient lamp. You are just an aunt, one step away from your biological father and mother. In terms of relationships, you have only cultivated them in the past two years. Who knows whether you will be able to control you at the critical moment?
"The palace is strictly forbidden. When I go in and out of the palace, there is no one I can trust around me." Yun Fenghuang was not surprised by his rejection and said calmly, "Unknown Crown Prince, can you give me a few words?"
If you're really worried, just put someone next to me and keep an eye on me. Is that okay?
However, Gong Xiangxiao still shook his head, and the reason was still the same: "If it were other people, I can recommend a few palace servants who are relatively diligent in their work, but you Yun Chenggui...and I remember the people you serve. Are they all full? Wouldn't it be a mistake to change people rashly?"
This was the master who had just entered the palace and was already fighting against Concubine Yue. The key was that she still had the upper hand!
Even if Gong Xiangxiao wanted to deploy people, how could he say so before getting reliable information about Yun Fenghuang? Who knows if Yun Fenghuang will change hands and sell him now that he is so committed?
Yun Fenghuang narrowed his eyes: "I am now Chenggui, but that may not happen in two days."
Before Gong Xiangxiao could speak, she continued, "In fact, why should the prince have any doubts? Our meeting tonight may be an unexpected surprise for the prince, but for me, it is exactly what I want."
Gong Xiangxiao raised his eyebrows.
"It was an accident that I entered the palace. It can be said that I entered the battle in a hurry." Yun Fenghuang's eyes flashed and he talked eloquently, "Therefore, there is no trustworthy person around me... As the prince knows, I am the only family member in the imperial capital. , that is, my aunt’s family. But not to mention that my uncle’s official position is low, he may not be able to arrange a reliable helper for me to enter the palace. Even if he can arrange it, given the relationship between my uncle and Duke Yi, how can I trust and dare to use it? "
As for her father's family, "The Xie family has lived in the north for a long time. Even if they feel sorry for my concubine, they are out of reach and powerless."
As for Yun Fenghuang, "I have just entered the palace now, and my status is still low, so it's okay. But when I am promoted to the throne in the future, I will have to deal with many things, but it is embarrassing! I will not hide it from the prince, I have been worried these past two days. As for this matter, I have to meet the prince tonight, which shows that God is merciful!"
The more she talked, the happier she became, and she even started to make conditions, "...the chambermaid should be smart and know how to look at the eyes, and should have a fair and gentle appearance, so that she can be honored when taken out; the palace maid should stay with me for a long time and have many opportunities. In addition to being smart and decent, You also need to be brave. The maid I have grown up with since childhood is loyal, but is too stupid and timid. If it weren’t for time being urgent and unable to change, I would not have taken her with me!"
Seeing Gong Xiangxiao looking at him expressionlessly, Yun Fenghuang asked strangely, "Don't you, the Crown Prince, believe in me? But the Crown Prince hopes that I will deliver the forbidden news to you, and I hope that I will rise rapidly in the palace. Can we cooperate with each other?" Isn’t it a matter of getting the best of both worlds? After all, my higher status makes it easier for me to inform the prince, right? Or does the prince suspect that I don’t have such enterprising spirit?”
Gong Xiangxiao was silent for a long time and then said, "What if after your status reaches a high level, your heart will turn to Chunjia?"
"If I have so much sincerity for Your Majesty, just based on the scene of sleeping together on the same bed just now..." Yun Fenghuang sneered, "I should have committed suicide by now. Do you think Your Majesty is keeping his integrity?"
"...Since you have no intention of keeping the festival for His Majesty." Gong Xiangxiao pondered, "Then why don't you want to have a good time with me so that you can trust each other more?"
In this way, everyone holds the handle of each other's capital crime, which makes it easier to cooperate in the future, right?
Yun Fenghuang glanced at him and suddenly smiled: "Your Majesty, you just kept saying that I am different, why are you confused now? Your Majesty has been resting in Xixing Pavilion for the past two days. Do you think I have any influence on him?" What kind of trust and favoritism?"
What misunderstanding do you have about Ben Chenggui?
Is this Chenggui so good at sleeping clothes?
"..." Gong Xiangxiao looked at her, and for some reason, he suddenly felt a sense of unreasonable aggrieved. After a long time, he slowly let out a breath, "Here comes someone!"
After a pause, "Send Chenggui to Xiao Penglai."
The reason for this arrangement was explained by the ordered guard on the way: "Xiao Penglai is not like this small square pot. The place is extremely small and can be seen at a glance. There have always been only a few Sasao palace maids left behind, not even internal servants."
Therefore, it is most suitable for Yun Fenghuang to "accidentally wander". His reputation will not be questioned, and he can return to the harem openly.
Of course, Gong Xiangxiao went around in such a circle not just for safety, but also because, "There is a palace maid named Liu Hong among them, who is loyal, clever, and pretty neat in appearance."
Yun Fenghuang knew it, so when he went to Xiao Penglai later, he was looking for this palace maid to accommodate him. With such a connection, if you are promoted to a higher position in the future, it will be a matter of course for you to have people around you.
...With the help of the prince regent who could treat the small square pot as his own villa, Yun Fenghuang's return to the harem went smoothly.
She first took a bath and changed clothes in Xiao Penglai, served by Liu Hong, and put on a set of clothes that Liu Hong changed, and finally slept comfortably on the bed Liu Hong gave her. During this period, Liuhong went to report to the maid in charge of the island, and discussed going to Yanfu Palace to report.
Yun Fenghuang didn't worry about all this trouble. When she was woken up, Zhouji was already waiting. After washing and changing clothes, she boarded the ship and was quickly sent to the queen.
