Chapter 224 Finding Parents in Unresolved Things
Chunjia nodded, this matter will be easy to handle.
The next day, Yun Fenghuang ordered people to summon all the concubines to the Huanhua Hall except Lu Qidao who was still under ground and waiting to be dealt with, Yuan Niangniang who had a special status, and Wei Hengyan who was still in confinement. Question: "Do you know what happened at the court meeting yesterday?"
Concubines, look at me and I look at you, because they are not sure what Concubine Xian means, so they don't make a sound.
Yun Fenghuang simply called the name: "Luo Jieyu?"
"...The concubine heard something." Luo Hanyi was very depressed. She had already been relegated from Concubine Xuan to Jieyu, and then became a concubine. Why didn't this concubine let her go?
"I don't think so?" Yun Fenghuang asked leisurely, flipping the lid of the tea bowl.
Luo Hanyi really wanted to say that I have feelings, and my feelings are that after knowing that you were forced by Princess Minghui to almost commit suicide in the temple, I laughed three times on the spot, feeling so happy!
But if you say this kind of thought, I'm afraid you won't be cold on the spot.
She thought about her words before she said cautiously: "...I just... feel quite surprised. Your Majesty is a virtuous and virtuous lady, how could she murder His Highness Princess Minghui? Also, Her Highness Princess has always been gentle and quiet, so how could it be possible because of With a few servants in the area, do you suspect that the empress is still poisoning the empress?"
Well, it's the same as saying nothing.
Yun Fenghuang sneered, and continued to roll the roll: "Where is Concubine Rui? What do you think?"
Concubine Rui cursed inwardly, what does this have to do with me!
What does this concubine want to do? !
The one got angry at the court meeting yesterday, and today the one is looking for Liu Gong's bad luck?
She thought about Luo Hanyi's feeling just now that Concubine Xian should be dissatisfied, but if she was to flatter Concubine Xian according to Concubine Xian's wishes, she would not be very reconciled just like Luo Hanyi.
Just thinking about whether to fool around or forget about it, Yun Fenghuang then said: "Your grandfather is smart, and you should also have some extraordinary insights."
Concubine Rui was startled, of course she had already inquired about her grandfather's statement in the temple yesterday, after all, the court meeting yesterday had already caused a big commotion, who in the palace didn't listen to it now?
"Your Majesty praised me absurdly. I am too dull to be expected by your Empress." Concubine Rui hesitated for a while, and subconsciously chose to follow her grandfather, "I feel that your Empress might be wronged."
Her grandfather would definitely not help Yun Fenghuang in a moment of kindness. Since her grandfather took the initiative to rescue Yun Fenghuang yesterday, then... it should be right to do so... right?
"The concubine Xian must have been wronged, and the concubine Xian has been wronged." Concubine Rui said that Yun Fenghuang didn't speak for a while, but the next concubine Xie thought about it and said, "How about we ask Princess Minghui to come over and ask?" To be clear, maybe the slave is talking nonsense?"
Yun Fenghuang glanced at her, and said with a smile: "Please come over, Princess Minghui? Come here? What if something goes wrong after you come here? If something goes wrong after drinking tea or something, who is to blame? I don't know." Some people thought that this palace really wanted to murder the late emperor's flesh and blood!"
Concubine Xie immediately lowered her head and closed her eyes, and said in a low voice, "It's my concubine's lack of consideration."
Mrs. Yaoning at the bottom, Gu Zhen, kept a sullen face and said nothing, while Mrs. Manya said bravely: "I have only been in the palace for a short time, and I only heard a little bit about what happened yesterday, so I don't know what's going on... So I just thought that the empress should not be angry, it hurts the liver, and it is not good for the bones of the body."
Yin Zhaoyi pursed her lips: "I don't dare to speak nonsense about the previous court... Anyway, the empress has worked hard."
Yuan Zhaoyuan has a backer, so her attitude is much more natural and casual: "Yesterday's court meeting was not over yet, and Jiashan Palace is not good. After I heard about it, I was afraid that my aunt would be worried, so I went to serve in Spring Palace. After that, Your Majesty will go, and my concubine I just went back to my own palace. Because I was too tired and busy, I haven’t asked the people below about this matter yet, so I’ll invite Concubine Xian Haihan.”
The implication is that if your concubine Xian doesn't want Haihan, ask my aunt.
Yun Fenghuang didn't raise his eyelids, and said coldly: "So you only stayed in the Spring Palace for a few hours yesterday, so you're busy and tired? It's not like the empress dowager is not without maids You give me a hand, they are serving every day without shouting or being tired, you are lucky, it’s only been such a short time, you just look like you have done a lot of things, you don’t have a loving mother and empress dowager in your heart, so treat yourself casually Do you feel impatient after a while, or did you not learn well at home when you were young, and you can't do enough to serve the elders?!"
"The concubine is just worried about my aunt..." Yuan Zhaoyuan didn't expect her to be so picky, her face turned red all of a sudden, and she subconsciously wanted to explain.
But he was interrupted by Yun Fenghuang before he finished speaking: "You keep saying you are worried, I only think of you when you talk and do things! You are so busy just thinking about how long you spent in Spring Palace yesterday. Tired, why don’t you think about the hardships and pains of the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager who have been sick for many days?! Are you worried about the Empress Dowager? I’m afraid you should take this opportunity to invite favors! How can you care about the elders who are sick? Tired yourself? It can be seen that what you are thinking about is purely yourself, how can you give a little bit of sincerity to the loving mother Empress Dowager!"
Yuan Zhaoyuan said anxiously: "I am not..."
"Shut up, you!" Yun Fenghuang sneered and asked Qingdu to lead someone to gag her and drag her out, "What kind of pretense are you pretending to be in front of this palace! Unfilial things, go down and copy the scriptures ten times to pray for the two empress dowagers ! You are not allowed to come to His Majesty before you finish copying!"
Seeing that she dealt with the Empress Dowager Yuan's niece so readily, and that she was confident and not afraid of being scolded by the Empress Dowager afterwards, all the concubines frowned slightly.
Jia Pingye at the bottom was especially frightened. After Yun Fenghuang looked over, she subconsciously swallowed her saliva, and then timidly said: "The body of the concubine... the body of the concubine is given to the two empress dowagers and the virtuous concubine these days." Copying the scriptures and praying for blessings...so...therefore yesterday's court meeting, I was not very clear...I am stupid...I am..."
She was on the verge of crying as she spoke, and it was all true: after all, after Ji Lingzi left the palace, she had no backer at all, and Pianyun Fenghuang was a ruthless one. A comfortable day.
In order to calm the panic and struggle, she has been copying the scriptures and becoming a vegetarian all the time. She is even more indifferent to the news from the outside, fearing that she will not be well-behaved and harmless.
Unexpectedly, Yun Fenghuang would call over to ask for his impressions.
If I had known about her yesterday, I would have asked someone to inquire about it.
At this moment, it is not clear at all, what happened at the court meeting yesterday?
"Where are the scriptures?" Yun Fenghuang stared at her for a while, then asked with a cold snort.
Jia Pingye trembled and said, "It's just... in the concubine's bedroom!"
Yun Fenghuang changed his sitting position, propped his chin with one hand, and glanced at Qing who was beside him: "Ask someone to look for it."
Seeing that Jia Pingye didn't mean to be guilty after saying this, she knew it was probably true, so she didn't make things difficult for her anymore, but instead talked about Yuan Zhaoyuan who had just been dragged out, "Seeing Jia's style is the real way to bring the two together." The empress dowager took it to heart! Like Yuan Zhaoyuan, that is, relying on the loving mother empress dowager to love her, pretending to be filial! I hate this kind of unfilial behavior the most in my life, you should take it as a warning, otherwise Let me know, but I can't spare you!"
All the concubines have one thought in their minds: If you say you are not filial, who else in this palace can compare with your virtuous concubine?
Except for the low-key Empress Dowager Qu who has almost no sense of presence, which one of the empress dowagers have you never contradicted?
"What do you say?" Mrs. Yaoning was silent just now, and Yun Fenghuang didn't point her. Everyone thought she was trying to save face for Gu Zhen. I got up, "Mr. Jia is stupid, but he also knows how to copy scriptures and pray for the two empress dowagers. You are so old, you can't do nothing in the palace all day long, right?"
Gu Zhen was so angry that his face turned pale, he clenched his fists, and said in a deep voice: "I am concentrating on taking care of the third prince, I don't have time to think about whether I will meet or not!"
"One third prince takes all your attention?" Yun Fenghuang sneered and said, "The two empress dowagers are sick, and you don't know how to care? Your majesty has been quite tired from going to court for the past two days. You must also No time to think about it? In vain you have entered the palace for many years, you are not as good as the young Concubine Rui!"
Concubine Rui looked at Gu Zhen in embarrassment, but did not dare to speak.
Gu Zhen said sullenly: "Why is it that the Xianfei empress specially asked people like concubines to come here to listen to your instructions?!"
"It's not like I'm idle and have nothing to do. What do I teach you?" Yun Fenghuang said softly, "Anyway, if you make a mistake, you will be punished by the palace rules. If you really can't be a concubine, you should go down and become a concubine. It's all Those who serve His Majesty can be promoted from concubines to concubines, why can't concubines be promoted to concubines? I just think about my own lessons, remind you, be more cautious in the future, don't be like me, you don't know if you are cheated .It's time to delay serving His Majesty!"
The concubines who said this were very unconvinced, and Gu Zhencheng's mansion was the shallowest and the most straightforward, so he said: "I am afraid that concubines are not qualified to understand the lessons of the virtuous concubine. After all, how can concubines have the ability to offend you?" Her Royal Highness Princess Minghui?"
"Why don't you have the skills?" Yun Fenghuang said with a smile that was not a smile, "Princess Minghui has never been able to talk to me about how close she is, but she has never had any grudges. What are you doing now to target me? ?” As he spoke, he looked at the four concubines Rui specifically, “Especially you guys, really thought that Ouyang Yanran was trying to smooth things over for me at the court meeting, for my own good? It's your turn."
"When the time comes, can you hold on?"
The concubines were startled, looked at each other, and their faces were not very good.
Concubine Rui forced a smile and said, "This... No matter how angry Your Highness the Eldest Princess is, she won't be, um, suspicious of He Gong?"
"Who knows what the golden branches and jade leaves are thinking?" Yun Fenghuang said lightly, "Anyway, this is all I have said, so you go back and take it easy. Otherwise, when the time comes, all of your servants will come to me crying and wiping away tears. Don't blame me for standing on the sidelines. I don't dare to offend the blood of the first emperor."
After she finished speaking, she waved people away.
The four concubines Rui came together subconsciously after leaving Huanhua Hall: "Is what you said about Concubine Xian true or false?"
"How could it be true? Are you stupid? Didn't she suffer a disadvantage at the court meeting and wanted to instigate us to target the eldest princess together!" Yin Xuan said without thinking, "I don't listen to her! The eldest princess If we have no grievances or enmities with us, why should we go against the first emperor's daughter for the sake of the concubine?"
"But since Concubine Xian said so, if we don't listen, I'm afraid..." Meng Youyi bit her lip, "I'm afraid she won't let it go?"
Yin Yan pursed his lips, and said in a low voice: "We are not the only concubines in this palace! I don't believe that other people are willing to fight against the eldest princess for the sake of Concubine Xian. You see, Mrs. Yaoning just now clearly cannot help Concubine Xian The law does not blame the public, no matter how powerful the concubine Xian is, can she still clean us up?"
This is reasonable, but Concubine Rui is still a little worried: "My grandfather did speak for her at the court meeting yesterday..."
"It must be for His Majesty's face!" Yin Xuan said bitterly, "Who doesn't know that His Majesty favors her?"
They left the Xuanqing Palace angrily, and sent people to inquire about the news, but they didn't want to listen to Yun Fenghuang anyway.
At this time, Gu Zhen was sitting in the flower hall of Huanhua Hall with a displeased face, looking at Yun Fenghuang who came in with a change of homely dress: "The concubine Xian asked the concubine to stay here on purpose. What orders? The third prince under my knees is still young and cannot be separated from my concubine's care, but my concubine dare not wait too long."
"The Huanhua Palace in this palace is not a dragon's pond or a tiger's lair." Yun Fenghuang Shi Shiran sat down opposite her, and said casually, "You can't stay like this?"
Gu Zhen snorted, "Of course Huanhua Temple is not the Dragon's Pool and the Tiger's Den, but the prestige of a concubine, how can it be compared to the Dragon's Pool and the Tiger's Den?"
"Then you still talk to me like this?" Yun Fenghuang smiled, "It seems that what I call prestige is nothing more than that."
"..." Gu Zhen wanted to say something but held back. He just kept his face stiff and urged, "Your Majesty, if you have any orders, please say so clearly. I'm a blunt concubine. I'm afraid you won't be able to understand it if you go around in circles."
Yun Fenghuang said: "I told you those things just now, what can I say now that you have retained your old qualifications?"
Gu Zhen took a deep breath before resisting the urge to scold her, and said: "I know, after I go back, I must tell the people below to be more careful, and not give His Highness Princess Minghui a chance to find fault."
"Then I can rest assured." Yun Fenghuang smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes, "It's just that you don't talk nicely, your palace is not clean, even Bengong who only entered the palace last year , you know everything like the palm of your hand, not to mention how many years have the biological mother and natal family of His Royal Highness Princess Minghui been operating in this palace?"
"You..." Gu Zhen was so angry when she heard that she openly said something that she knew well about her palace, but immediately thought of something, her expression changed, and she said in a deep voice, "What do you mean by that?"
Yun Fenghuang said: "It's not interesting, I'm just afraid that your soft-hearted subordinates will also slack off, if something goes wrong, then this palace is not allowed to propose a successor to His Majesty?"
...The news that Gu Zhen left the Xuanqing Palace with a sullen face was soon heard by all the concubines, and Yin Xuan kicked the flower pot and scolded bitterly: "I don't know where I have lived at such a young age! It's all about His Majesty's grandson!" The old man who entered the palace when he got married is still being led by the nose everywhere!"
She is the one who dislikes Yunfenghuang the most among the four concubines, not only because she was beaten by Yunfenghuang when she first entered the palace, but also because she has a good father, not full of concubines like other concubines, and her main wife goes away Afterwards, they began to alienate their legitimate children.
Yin Qu has a very good relationship with his wife, and he never remarried after his wife left, and he dotes on his two daughters very much.
Yin Xuan grew up in this kind of environment, but she was not treated differently by Chunjia when she entered the palace. concubine!
Later, she gritted her teeth and lowered her figure to actively fight for favor. Chunjia cooperated and went to her place a few more times, but what she still missed was Yun Fenghuang... This is simply too irritating! ! !
How could she be willing to follow Yun Fenghuang's wishes and go against Princess Minghui together?
Originally, I thought that Gu Zhen would not cooperate, but with this old senior Mrs. Yao Ning at the front, they both obeyed and violated, and Yun Fenghuang was the first to find Gu Zhen when he wanted to be punished... In the end, they all left, and Gu Zhen was still in the hustle and bustle. In the Flower Palace, even if she came out with a bad face, it seemed that she was not getting along well with Yun Fenghuang, but what if she still compromised? What if she actually sang with Yun Fenghuang to cheat other concubines?
Yin Xuan kicked the flower pot to the ground, and flicked his sleeves vigorously: "That's all! Send someone back to ask Dad, this matter... what should be the rules?!"
