Chapter 131: Aftertaste
Yun Fenghuang returned to Huanhua Hall in the evening, and when she came back, Chunjia had already been here for a while, coaxing Zhaoqing in the side hall.
Zhaoqing's spirit is not very good, he has lost his savage strength, and the little girl's soft voice sounds very cute: "...Father, my son's leg hurts so much, my son is so painful that I don't have the heart to do things son."
"Then don't do it." Chun Jia said with pity, "I'll concentrate on recovering from my injury first, what's the matter, let's talk about it after the injury recovers, huh?"
"What if the injury is healed and still hurts, what should I do?" Zhaoqing was not satisfied with this answer, and continued to act like a baby, "Father, if my son's leg hurts all the time, can I not do my homework all the time?"
The corner of Yun Fenghuang's mouth twitched outside, thinking that the daughter should not be so hurt anymore.
Otherwise, where did the thoughts come from, and now you are still thinking about taking advantage of the situation to be lazy?
But thinking of the words of the imperial physician, his expression turned cold.
Inside, Chunjia also had similar thoughts, and said with a smile: "How can there be a royal princess who can't read a few characters? You are not allowed to mess around. But if you are doing well, it is also negotiable to reduce schoolwork in the future."
Zhaoqing was a little disappointed, she was too young, and no one dared to tell her about the possible consequences of being disabled, she hadn't thought about it that much yet.
I think that after the fall, my father, queen, mother and concubine will be very talkative in a short period of time. This is a good time to propose not to do homework.
Seeing that Chunjia couldn't be persuaded now, she felt sick all of a sudden.
After a while, Chunjia came out lightly, and saw Yun Fenghuang standing in the corridor, half covering his face, looking at the courtyard thoughtfully, feeling sad in his heart, and said in a low voice: "The child just fell asleep, let's go Let the main hall speak."
"What did Yun Jieyu say?" After taking her seat in the main hall, Chunjia pinched the center of her eyebrows, swung her left and right, and asked straightforwardly.
Yun Fenghuang lowered his eyes: "The left and right are just old things. She doesn't talk about it herself, and the concubine doesn't know about it. She hates the concubine so much."
Seeing Chunjia raise her eyebrows, she showed a wry smile, "She said, if there is an afterlife, she would like to be born in a family where her father loves her mother and her brothers and sisters love her. , life is meaningless."
"She wants to." Chunjia sneered, "Is she worthy too?"
Seeing his furious look, Yun Fenghuang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the emperor was so angry, it was not unrelated to Yun Qingman's previous disobedience, and it could be seen that he really loved Zhao Qing.
If he hadn't found a scapegoat to take the blame, maybe the anger was directed at him.
"I don't want to live anymore, seeing her." Yun Fenghuang sighed softly, showing a look of loneliness, "So I don't want to talk to her too much...just, Zhaoqing..."
She said sadly, "She hates this concubine, and she is here for her, why bother to vent her anger on my child?! In fact, doesn't this concubine hate her? But the concubine did not say what she did to the fourth prince. When she gave birth to The fourth prince, how can I feel better physically and mentally? But in order to make the life of the fourth prince better, I asked her to be concubine Xie... It is a pity that the fourth prince is gone, but this is not what the concubine did. Why should she hurt her? Zhaoqing, should I borrow the hand of the King of Qin?! How old is the King of Qin? The two children are so ignorant now that they don’t know the severity. When they grow up, how will they get along with each other?!”
After speaking, he began to cry.
Chunjia believed her words very much, because Yun Fenghuang had previously suggested that the heirs of the same age should accept the fact that the emperor personally took care of their studies. From the emperor's point of view, it was because she had no biological flesh and blood that she pitied all the emperors. Heir.
Since the imperial concubine is such a concubine who is extremely friendly to the emperor's heirs, then Yun Qingman's murder of King Qin and Zhaoqing for the sake of the fourth prince is of course especially pricking her heart.
His face darkened, he stretched out his hand to embrace Yunfenghuang, and comforted him softly: "This lowly servant girl is vicious and vicious, and deliberately stabbed you in the heart! However, Zhaoqing is still young, I will find a famous doctor for her, she will be fine Damn. Don't let her be confused by this, wouldn't it make her proud instead?"
"This is also a concubine's incompetence." Yun Fenghuang leaned on his chest, charmingly, quickly thinking about whether she had fallen short, and said in a low voice, "Although she was also a concubine in the Xuanqing Palace, but before and after After only staying for a few months, Jieyu was sealed off. That's it, but she still left behind in front of the concubine. It was in vain that the concubine felt that she was smart. Now that she saw the child like that, she woke up. It turned out that the concubine was also He's just an idiot!"
This is the most difficult point for Yun Qingman to be the real murderer behind the scenes, because everyone agrees that Yun Fenghuang's methods are extraordinary, and she is the kind of powerful character who only harms others and no one can harm her.
And what about Yun Qingman?
To be honest, I almost forgot about her in the harem two years ago.
Although the family background is not low, when he entered the palace at the beginning of the year, he and the late Xue Xiaoge belonged to the seed players among the group of newcomers who had never seen anyone before. Falling out of favor quickly.
Even being able to conceive the fourth prince was probably due to the accidental death of Concubine Zhenxi Shu, and Chunjia needed to appease the Duke of Yi, so she had frequent visits several times.
After the fourth prince was born, he was basically raised and waited to die.
Just such a master said that she could play tricks in Xuanqing Palace, and even cheated the brothers and sisters King Qin and Zhaoqing. I am afraid that no one in Liugong would believe it.
Chunjia is not stupid.
But now he really believed it, and comforted Yun Fenghuang: "How can I blame you? This poisonous woman is Zhenxi's half-sister after all. Poison woman... At first, I thought they were just trying to protect the fourth prince, but they didn't care. Who knew that they were so mad that they did such a thing... This is my fault, I didn't cut off their wings early in the morning. In the future, peace will be celebrated It's fine if there's nothing wrong with her, if she really..."
Chunjia paused at this point, and sighed, "I will make it clear to her when the time comes, I can't blame you for this."
Yun Fenghuang silently thanked Concubine Zhenxi Shu, still looking extremely sad, forced a smile and said: "What does this have to do with Your Majesty? Your Majesty has a lot to do every day, and my concubine is in the palace. Or let them make a mistake under their noses, no matter how you look at it, it is all the responsibility of the concubine."
This night, the emperors and concubines competed with each other to take responsibility, but in the end they threw Princess Zhaoqing aside, it was not easy for each other to feel sorry for each other.
The next day the news of the murder of King Qin and Princess Zhaoqing spread throughout the Six Palaces. The concubines were surprised and sent people to visit them one after another.
It's just that most people are secretly happy.
Concubine Min has swept all the invincible opponents in the six palaces since she entered the palace, the only thing that can make people find a balance is not to have this.
But the emperor couldn't stand his partiality, so he entrusted the eldest son and the eldest daughter to her to raise them. Now that something happened to the two children, even if Chunjia didn't blame her, the noble concubine would still be ashamed.
Moreover, Chunjia loved Zhaoqing the most among her children. Something went wrong with this eldest princess. If she really became disabled, maybe other princesses would have a chance to compete for favor.
Xuan Zhaoyi, who had always been indifferent to the second princess, sent a lot of nourishing medicinal materials to Xuanqing Palace, and sighed with compassion: "How did the good princess become like this? It’s better to be out of danger.”
Turning around, he happily ordered, "Teach the second princess more in the future, and let her visit the eldest princess more often."
The voice lowered, "Choose the time when His Majesty passes by."
Even if she can't replace the eldest princess, at least she can show that she is a good mother and concubine, and the second emperor's girlfriend loves the eldest sister, right?
The concubines all had the same idea, so everyone outside the palace knew about it all at once, and they all rushed to feel sorry for Princess Zhaoqing.
The more embarrassing thing is that Yi Xingen, as the biological mother, is not the stepmother. She cares, but she doesn't care or doesn't care... Even because she just offended Yun Fenghuang, she doesn't dare to pretend to be ill to hide from the limelight.
Otherwise, if someone said that Yi Shi was fine, why would she be sick? Wouldn't she be so distressed that Yun Fenghuang would take care of her the next day?
Fortunately, Yun Qingman helped her.
It was only when I heard that King Qin and Zhaoqing were tricked by Concubine Yuan Xie that Zhaoqing's injury worsened, Liugong didn't take it seriously.
It wasn't once or twice that the wise and mighty Emperor Chunjia seemed blind to the imperial concubine. From the Empress Dowager Yuan down, everyone was used to it.
Some people secretly lamented that Yun Qingman was pitiful. When they were in the boudoir, they were looking for handkerchiefs. It was not good to find something. When they entered the palace with a master like Yun Fenghuang, it was clear that Yun Qingman was the leader Yun Fenghuang was just an existence that made up the numbers in the last wave.
In the end, she came from behind and turned against the guest. Even Yi Guogong and his wife were trembling.
It was so easy to give birth to the fourth prince, and I looked forward to it. The fourth prince died at a young age. Now, I have to be pulled out by the noble concubine as a shield. What a miserable concubine.
So the queen sent someone to the Beigong to check the ins and outs with Yun Qingman, and when she learned that she had committed suicide by hanging herself, she sighed sincerely and wondered whether she should ask Chunjia for a decent burial or something. On the face of the prince?
Then I saw that the person sent over was hesitant to speak.
"What's wrong?" the Queen asked, raising her eyebrows.
The palace man said in a low voice: "My lady, my concubine Xie... No, it's Yun Jieyu, Yun Jieyu left a suicide note, it was sealed with wax, the slaves dare not move it, should I bring it up now?"
Gu Zhenxin said that he didn't know whether it was Yun Qingman or Yun Fenghuang who stayed behind.
She said casually: "Take it up and have a look."
After seeing Gu Zhen, his whole body is not good!
In the suicide note, Yun Qingman claimed that Chen was the one who murdered the King of Qin and Zhaoqing in order to take revenge on Yun Fenghuang.
but……
Then she started to target his aunt, Mrs. Yi Guogong!
And the beginning is "Han family murdered my son", which means that she can't think about targeting Qin Wang brothers and sisters. The main reason is that the fourth prince is gone, so Han family is the culprit!
As for why the Han family murdered the fourth prince, the reason is very simple, in order to make King Qin, the prince under the name of Concubine Zhenxishu, the only grandson of Duke Yi's mansion!
Because although Yun Qingman was not favored in her natal family, and even the fourth prince was not valued very much, after all, King Qin and Concubine Zhenxi Shu had no blood relationship, they were just named heirs. Therefore, the Han family proposed several times for the King of Qin, but was rejected by Yi Guogong. That's why Han believed that it was because the four princes shared the weight of the King of Qin, so that Lord Yi Guo pushed three times and four times, and refused to pay for the King of Qin.
At this point, Gu Zhen could continue to suspect that it was Yun Fenghuang's conspiracy.
After all, everyone knows the grievances between Yun Fenghuang and the Yun family.
The problem is that there are a lot of evidence and details written in the suicide note, proving that after the fourth prince went, Yun Qingman spent a lot of thought to thoroughly investigate the matter, and found a lot of evidence pointing to Mrs. Yi Guogong.
But she expressed despair, whether it is herself or the fourth prince, in the eyes of Chunjia and Yi Guogong, the status is too low and the weight is too light, even if there is a quarrel, there is probably nothing to do with Yi Guogong and his wife.
Even because many of the people around her were Concubine Zhenxishu's old friends, maybe she died before the big trouble happened.
Therefore, in order to avenge her own flesh and blood, and also to avenge Yun Fenghuang, she persuaded the old people left behind by Concubine Zhenxishu to plan an assassination against King Qin and Zhaoqing.
"...Before Yun Jieyu left, the noble concubine went there." After Gu Zhen saw it, his heart was ups and downs for a moment, and he ordered someone to call the palace servant who had gone to question him before, and interrogated him, "Does the noble concubine know about this suicide note?"
"Returning to the empress, the imperial concubine should not know?" The palace man thought for a while, and said, "When the slaves went, they found that the doors and windows of Yun Jieyu's hanging beam room were tightly closed, and they were all locked from the inside. , I couldn’t get in from outside at all. After the servant girl checked carefully, she confirmed that there was no way to enter normally, so the door was knocked open. And this suicide note was hidden by Yun Jieyu. According to the servant girl’s observation, although Yun Jieyu’s body was struggling, But it was all caused by normal beam hanging, and there was no trace of coercion. The imperial doctor has also seen it, and said that Yun Jieyu was very awake when she hung the beam, and she did not lose consciousness."
Gu Zhen narrowed her eyes, and she also felt that Yun Fenghuang probably didn't know about such a letter.
Otherwise, with regard to the grievances between Yun Fenghuang and Duke Yi's mansion, wouldn't there be a quarrel immediately to attack the Han family?
She didn't believe that Yun Qingman had the ability to play tricks in Xuanqing Palace, and thought that Yun Qingman might be used as a shield by the imperial concubine, but the imperial concubine never thought that Yun Qingman also had plans to use the imperial concubine... This suicide note should be what Yun Qingman wanted Yun Fenghuang to get.
Yun Qingman was not favored, and she was surrounded by concubine Zhenxishu's people, even if she doubted the Han family, she was helpless.
The only way to hand over the evidence to Yun Fenghuang was through this opportunity of being framed.
With Yun Fenghuang's hand, give Han family a ride.
But Yun Qingman did not expect that Yun Fenghuang hated her so much, and it was not Yun Fenghuang who dealt with it, but the empress.
So this letter reached the queen's hands.
So now the question is, what should I do to maximize my benefits?
Yun Fenghuang has a grievance with the Han family, and he wished to kill the Han family as soon as possible, but Gu Zhen and the Han family have no grievances or enmity...
Considering Gu's current situation, and the emperor's trust in Yun's... Gu Zhen narrowed his eyes, and lightly told the palace servants who were still waiting in front of him: "Forget this suicide note, Yun Jieyu committed suicide in fear of crime, and left nothing behind." Just a few words, understand?"
