Chapter 244 Confused

Chunjia was startled when he heard the words, subconsciously felt a little bit disappointed.

He thought that Yun Fenghuang's grand ceremony was purely for him, but the concubine still planned to catch the real culprit by taking advantage of the situation?

Sure enough, Concubine Xian is Concubine Xian, every step counts as three steps, every move is not easy.

When it came to business, Chunjia put away those playful thoughts, and said in a deep thought: "That will only happen if you and my servants are trustworthy."

"I did a thorough investigation before, and if there are still problems, I'm afraid I won't be able to wake up during those days when I was lying on the couch and the water and rice were hard to get in." Yun Fenghuang sighed, "I can't give up eating because of choking, and suspect that there is no good person around me from now on... …I used to live like this after the incident with my sixth sister, but it was okay when I lived under my aunt's lap, but after entering the palace, Nianxuan just didn't take advantage of it, so Qingdu and the others had to do something."

"Actually, Lu Chuncao is indeed suspicious." Chunjia thought for a while, and said to her, "Although the evidence found by the Secretary of the Imperial City is not all true, but since Liu Hong is the one who started it, it is inseparable from the regent. The regent On Wang's side, the most likely person to do this for him is Lu Chuncao."

Yun Fenghuang looked at him, hesitant to speak.

Chunjia said, "What's wrong?"

"Although the father and daughter of the Lu family are at odds with the Prince Regent's son, the Dingbei Army has a great relationship." Yun Fenghuang hesitated for a while before saying, "Don't worry too much, I just don't think Lu Chuncao is like that kind of impulsive person .It might be possible if Concubine Lu Ji, but Concubine Lu probably doesn't have the ability to reach out to my palace."

"Let's talk about things seriously, can I still think too much?" Chun Jia said, "I know what you mean, the regent treats Qi's son generously, hoping that he will take over the Dingbei Army in the future. Therefore, I will kill you , it is very likely to dissatisfy Qi's son. Lu Chuncao will not do this. But the problem is, Qi's son has no connection with the palace, if there is something wrong with you, how does he know what the truth is?"

Yun Fenghuang frowned and said: "You mean, Lu Chuncao might plot to murder me, and then blame other people, and even your plans?"

Seeing Chunjia nod her head, she quickly analyzed, are the emperor's words sincere?

To be honest, this shows that he should not have doubted her.

It would be interesting if it was fake.

Could it be that he has already found out something, and in order not to disturb her, he denied it?

Concubine Xian thought for a while, and decided to pretend to the end. She took the position that this matter was not done by herself at all, and shook her head, "If it's just to make Qi's son separate from you, why would the regent take such a risk? Even if Qi's son cares a little about me, after all, he is already married and has a daughter, with parents and daughters, how can he still sacrifice his life for me? Wanbu said, even if Qi's son is really a fool, what status does he deserve to care about the death of a dignified concubine?"

"Ah Huang, have you forgotten why Qi's son is valued by the regent? It's because he can fall into Uncle Zhaowu's eyes." Chunjia sighed and said, "The problem is, even if Qi's son is really regarded by Uncle Zhaowu as an in-law disciple, he won't be able to get away with it." He is still far away from taking charge of the Dingbei Army! For the regent, who is the most important right now? For Qi's son, Lu Chuncao or the regent, it may not be too risky, but for Uncle Zhaowu?"

Yun Fenghuang was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted: Although Uncle Zhaowu was said to have always disapproved of Gu Zhen being the empress, Chunjia only persuaded Uncle Zhaowu's father and younger brother to decide to take advantage of Uncle Zhaowu's presence in the frontier, without edict Don't go back, come with raw rice and cooked rice, so Uncle Zhaowu can't deny this account.

But after all, the Prince Regent and Uncle Zhao Wu had a friendship that used to hang out together in the army, maybe they thought of using tricks to make it easier for Gu Zhen to assist the Prince Regent to win the throne after he became a queen?

Anyway, Gu Zhen, as one of the victims of the Three Corpse Worms, has no children so far, and it is unlikely that he will have children in the future.

Even if she becomes a queen and her sons seal the East Palace, they still don't have Gu's blood.

And Gu Zhen didn't like Chunjia very much, even if she sat in the back seat all the time, it might not bring much benefit to Gu Shi. Even after Chunjia's throne was stabilized, there was no risk of following in Ji's footsteps.

On the contrary, Uncle Zhao Wu has a close relationship with the Prince Regent. If the Prince Regent comes to power, how can he not rely on the Gu family?

In this way, it is reasonable for the regent to plan to poison and kill Yun Fenghuang in order to ensure that Gu Zhen will not be separated from power after he enters the Yanfu Palace.

... If Yun Fenghuang hadn't done this by himself, she would have believed it!

"If Uncle Zhao Wu is involved." Yun Fenghuang squinted his eyes slightly, made a quick calculation in his heart, and said in a deep voice, "I have an idea."

Seeing Chunjia looking over inquiringly, she sighed, "The regent thinks well, but will that son-in-law of the Luo family, who has been honed in the Dingbei army for several years, be willing?"

"You mean Luo Tieyi?" Chunjia thought for a while, and said, "You suspect that this matter was done by the Luo family, with the purpose of alienating Uncle Zhaowu, Qi Jiulu, and even the regent, for the convenience of Luo Tieyi?"

Yun Fenghuang said: "I just think that a famous family like the Luo family is well-known, and its son is so honorable, it is unlikely that someone will take his love away? But since Qi's son entered the Dingbei Army until now, have you ever heard of it?" What disturbance did you talk about?"

Chunjia said implicitly: "In fact, it may not necessarily be calm, it may be thousands of miles away, we don't know."

Of course, Yun Fenghuang knew that Qi Jiulu was not peaceful after he entered the Dingbei Army. He narrowly escaped death, but was brought south by Chao Jingyou to the imperial capital to file an imperial complaint. How could it be all arranged by Ji and Chunjia? Not without Luo's help, he hoped that he would die on the road.

But after all, she is a loyal concubine who "sees His Majesty when she enters the palace", so how can she pay attention to her ex-fiancé?

At this moment, he insisted: "How important is it to set up the North Army? If something serious happens, we can't not hear it. Anyway, I don't believe that Luo Tieyi will sit back and watch Uncle Zhaowu talk to the regent and exclude him. Not only Luo Tieyi Tie Yi, it's impossible for everyone in the Luo family to swallow this breath? But I didn't see them swearing at the regent in the temple, so it's probably because they wanted to get out of the market, right? They can't just accept it like this, Sit back and watch Luo Tieyi fetch water from the bamboo basket in vain? Who will pay attention to Luo Shi in the future?"

"...What you said makes sense." Chunjia thought for a while, then said, "I'll let the Secretary of the Imperial City keep an eye on it."

Yun Fenghuang rolled his eyes and said, "I almost forgot, Xuan Jieyu is still waiting outside. Why don't you let Qingdu go over to find out about her, and see what's going on with her rushing here now? Maybe just follow her." Is it related to Rockwell? Let's confirm one thing or two."

Chunjia naturally had no objection.

So Qingdu went, and after a while, he came back in a hurry to report, saying: "Your Majesty, empress, Xuan Jieyu said that just now the wet nurse was breastfeeding the second emperor's daughter, and the second emperor took two sips, and the nurse suddenly fell to the ground with bleeding from all seven orifices. Death, looking left and right, it looks like... a crane with a red crest!"

Yun Fenghuang was stunned for a moment, not only her, Chunjia also changed his face: "Really?!"

"The servant girl doesn't look like a fake from Xuan Jieyu's appearance." Qing Du glanced at Yun Fenghuang and said in a low voice.

... For such a big matter, Luo Hanyi was crazy to fake it.

Although after waiting for a long time, she learned that the concubine Xian was lying on the couch and the emperor personally accompanied her, and she had no time to pay attention to her, and could only let Qingdu come over to deal with it, she felt that she was going crazy—it took about a stick of incense after Qingdu went in. , the dignified Chunjia strode out, asked briefly about the situation, and asked her to board the chariot to Yanlan Palace together, planning to investigate the matter thoroughly by herself!

Not only him, but Yun Fenghuang wanted to see what was going on for himself?

But there was no way, she was the one who announced that she was sick today, and because of this, the emperor didn't go to court early, so she couldn't immediately go to Xuan Jieyu Palace to point fingers, right?

Therefore, Chunjia got up when she talked about it, and looked into it when she said she wanted to.

Yun Jiaohua's position is very unstable, she knows best how He Dinghong got to Huanhua Hall, but the problem is what happened to the second emperor's wet nurse?

Who cares about a wet nurse?

Even if it's the second princess, it doesn't feel worth being murdered.

First of all, the imperial daughter cannot inherit the throne, secondly, she is not even the eldest daughter, and thirdly, the second imperial daughter is very common regardless of the birth mother's background or the importance of the adoptive mother.

Chunjia has five sons and three daughters, she is not outstanding in it, okay?

When the other seven imperial heirs were all safe and sound, why on earth did the second imperial daughter become the target?

If it weren't for knowing that he didn't have any reliable allies in the palace, Yun Fenghuang would have thought that someone had done this specifically to help him confuse his sight.

Hmm, wait... If it's the other way around, maybe he doubted himself but had no evidence, and planned to use this matter to frame her?

Thinking of this, Yun Fenghuang became vigilant, reviewed his previous plan again to confirm that there were no flaws left, and wondered how the matter of Yanlan Palace would develop?

She made a lot of assumptions, but she never imagined that the development of the Yanlan Palace has simply exceeded everyone's expectations: all kinds of evidence point to the Huzhu Palace!

"Ridiculous! It's absolutely impossible for Niang Niang to do such a thing!" The Empress Dowager Yuan, who was also paying attention to the matter, was furious when she heard the news, "This must be the nonsense that Qizi slave is talking about! Niang Niang Ever since King Qi passed away, she has been staying at home all day long, this is not enough for her, and she is also worthy of being a concubine?!"

Chunjia seemed to be alluding to Yun Fenghuang when he heard this, and quickly explained: "The queen mother is not Li Niang, but Cistanniang!"

"Cistanniang?" Empress Dowager Yuan was taken aback, and she almost didn't think of this niece. After all, compared with Yuan Ziniang, who was brought up by one hand, and Yuan Zhiniang, who was named Zhaoyuan under the title of daughter-in-law, Yuan Cistanniang, no matter her birth or status, are all too easily overlooked.

Even Queen Mother Yuan paid far less attention to her than the other two nieces.

Now she is even more angry, saying how is this possible, if you say that Niangniang murdered the second princess, at least she might have the ability, but Niangniang... this is just an unfavored concubine, an idler raised in the palace, I'm afraid she has never been to Yanlan Palace at all? Can she do this?

Empress Dowager Yuan said with a sneer: "If she has this ability, she will be the one who caused Aijia to look at Concubine Xian!"

In fact, Chunjia didn't really believe that it was Yuan Yuniang. The problem was that this was the result of Yanlan Palace's thorough investigation. He could only come to discuss with Queen Mother Yuan how to deal with the aftermath: "The Luo family insisted on asking the child to uphold justice for her, but now the evidence is overwhelming. , it’s not good not to give her an explanation.”

It's fine if it's just Luo Hanyi, the key is that he and Yun Fenghuang just hung people out for a while.

Luo Hanyi was so anxious that he took advantage of the opportunity to have someone send the news out of the palace and told his parents and elder brother.

It's like saying that things have gone to the front.

It is conceivable that what needs to be sealed now is no longer a mere concubine, but the huge Luo family.

"What ironclad evidence is there!" Empress Dowager Yuan said angrily, "If the Ai family says it's not true, then it's not, or let the Luo family come to the Ai family and say it in front of the Ai family?!"

This is of course an angry remark, Luo Hanyi may be easy to dismiss, but Luo Shi is definitely not so easy to provoke.

And this time it was Luo Hanyi who was almost murdered, the key wet nurse was the one who nursed the second princess.

It is Chunjia's flesh and blood that the second princess is no longer taken seriously.

If the crime of murdering the emperor's heir is deducted, Yuan Cistanniang will not escape death. The crime is minor, and Xingningbo Mansion probably won't have a good life.

Even Yuan Lianniang's harsh concubine and murder of the emperor's heir in the past will be revealed... The regent will definitely be happy to do so.

Empress Dowager Yuan pursed her lips, regretting once again that she didn't train Yuan Niangniang carefully.

If her niece has a reputation of being virtuous and generous, what is she afraid of?

She dared to continue to cry out against the overwhelming evidence!

For example, Yun Fenghuang's biological mother, Jiang, had an example of raising her concubine daughter as her own, and even treated her concubine better than her own. The mother and son tortured to death, I am afraid no one will believe it.

But Yuan Niangniang's reputation...

From this, it can be inferred that sister Yuan Niangniang's character is...

That really doesn't hold water at all.

"Mother, the boy has just promised euphemistically that he will return to the position of the Luo family." Chunjia comforted him for a while, and then said, "As for his father and brother, there must be no problem if the boy tells them tomorrow. It's just that Cistanniang and Uncle Xingning's mansion, the empress mother has to take the trouble to give them some advice."

Empress Dowager Yuan said bitterly: "These bastards don't know anything other than dragging their feet, what are they telling them? Just let them go back to Fuyang County! Don't be ashamed in the court and in the palace!"

That being said, after all, I ordered someone to bring in Yuan Yuniang who had already knelt outside the hall to take her sins, "The Ai family should personally ask this low-spirited maidservant! Why can the Yuan family, the Ai family, and the emperor feel sorry for her?" , she wants to harm people like this?!"

In fact, the mother and son are not very surprised by Yuan Yuniang's food, after all, people are not strong enough, what they can't figure out is, where did Yuan Yuniang get this ability?

Of course, Luo Hanyi's way of managing the palace is not as good as Yun Fenghuang's. She even doesn't care much about the second emperor's daughter, the kind that she raises casually, but this does not mean that it is easy to kill the second emperor's wet nurse.

The Empress Dowager Yuan just said that Yuan Niangniang might have this ability, but she was flattering Yuan Niangniang.

Yuan Niangniang may have this qualification, but she really may not have this skill... let alone Yuan Yuniang?
