Three Hundred and Twenty First Chapters Trouble
The fact that Yuan Ke entered the palace to see Concubine An in person surprised everyone inside and out.
As the emperor's cousin who suffered the most tragic end after Ji Minggan, Yuan Ke was also considered a star-studded figure in the early days.
But after the Yuan family collapsed, he was the only one who escaped by chance, and quickly disappeared in the discussions on the streets and alleys.
Now that he was suddenly brought out and sneaked out, he couldn't help whispering to the harem.
He didn't stay in Huzhu Palace for too long. After leaving in a hurry, some palace people took the couple away from Ningbi Palace and announced that Yuan Ke persuaded Concubine An to compromise. For this reason, the emperor privately told the queen to send People rewarded Yuan Ke with some things as his hard work for this trip.
"Your Majesty seems to have some affection for the newcomers." Everyone then thought, "Of course Concubine An's methods are too low-handed, maybe Your Majesty can't stand it anymore."
No idea that at this moment Concubine An was furious in the palace: "Who allowed you to release people?! When did this Palace promise to release people?! Yuan Ke, this trash, bastard, this bastard!!!"
Only a few people know the truth. In fact, when Yuan Kecai was summoned, he said truthfully that it was impossible for him to persuade Concubine An.
After all, the two people with the closest relationship between the Yuan family and Chunjia, under the Empress Dowager Yuan, are Concubine An.
When Yuan Niangniang lost her temper, it was because even Chunjia didn't want to lose face, let alone Yuan Ke's cousin?
In fact, Chunjia also understood this point, he didn't expect Yuan Ke to persuade Concubine An, he just wanted Yuan Ke's name.
So Yuan Ke, in the name of visiting, rushed to Huzhu Palace and chatted with Concubine An... Concubine An ignored him at all, but Yuan Ke finished greeting him cautiously, and told the love of many far away siblings. .
Seeing Concubine An getting more and more impatient, he tactfully resigned.
In the end, some palace servants rushed in and took the newcomer away, saying that Yuan Ke had persuaded Concubine An... This is really...
How should I put it, in the eyes of the empress, noble concubine and others, this is the best way.
Concubine An is ignorant, but fortunately Yuan Shi still has a sensible person.
As for Concubine An's thoughts and mood, these people really didn't have time to think about it.
Anyway, the Dendrobium Pearl Palace was originally remote, so if the palace door is locked, who knows what happened inside?
"The newlyweds are temporarily resettled to the Yinying Palace." Yun Fenghuang told the queen softly, "Concubine An is ruthless, and two of them have only one breath left, but Concubine An doesn't want them to be too happy, so she insisted Taking medicine to hang her life... The situation is very bad, so I asked the imperial doctor to take a look at it."
The queen sighed, and said: "I'm worrying you, this kind of thing should have come from my palace...but I'm tired of you and Zhaoqing coming forward together."
"What did you say? It's about the empress dowager, who is not a concubine? It's because Zhaoqing is young and ignorant, so he insisted on keeping these people on a whim." Yun Fenghuang smiled, very gentle and lovely "My concubine couldn't resist her entanglement, so I helped to make a plan."
Gu Zhen didn't catch a word, his smile froze slightly, and he said immediately: "This child Zhaoqing... I used to look at her like a child, but I don't want to, but I have a kind heart."
She didn't believe it!
It would be fine if the Seventh Prince had this kindness.
King Qin and Zhaoqing? ? ?
Even his half-brother, the third prince, King Chu, has been bullied countless times. Will he remember and feel sorry for those newcomers?
The queen thought to herself, didn't the noble concubine think of herself as a fool?
It's just that the noble concubine refused to admit it, and she couldn't say anything, anyone called the emperor acquiesced, the lives of these newcomers were saved by Zhao Qing and the noble concubine's nieces and nieces together?
Gu Zhen immediately lost interest, chatted with Yun Fenghuang for a while, and then sent her away.
After the imperial concubine left, the queen was tangled and said: "Is the imperial concubine trying to change her ways, or is she trying to build her reputation?"
She hoped it was the former, but the key point was that it was probably the latter...
Not only her, but the waiters on the left and right also felt that it should be the latter: "Your Majesty, if the imperial concubine really wants to change her ways, shouldn't she do such a thing in the name of her empress? Now everyone is saying that the imperial concubine is The children are kind-hearted and extend a helping hand to the newcomers, this... this does not seem like pure kindness!"
"..." Gu Zhen pinched his forehead, feeling infinitely troubled.
She sighed and changed the subject, "Is there any news from the north recently? How are father and Li'er doing?"
Gu Fangshu's recruitment to the north was not very smooth, because they were often assassinated as soon as they left Gyeonggi.
This shocked the ruling and opposition parties alike!
After all, with Gu Fangshu's status and status, there are only a handful of people or influences who dare to murder him, or so blatantly murder him.
Even the Gu family began to doubt Chunjia at that time...
Afterwards, all the way north, there were constant disturbances along the way.
The result of Chunjia's discussion with the important officials is that Gu Li's rebellion seems to have a great relationship with the remnants of the Ji family.
At this time, it can be seen that the emperor conspired with the regent to cut the mess quickly and directly beheaded the important people of the Ji family. Because it was not after steadily eating away the influence and power of the Ji family, he succeeded in one fell swoop, so Ye Although the Duke of the State and other important figures of the Ji family passed away suddenly, leaving the Ji family without a leader, but... the huge contacts and power accumulated by the Ji family during the three dynasties did not suffer serious damage in the first place.
Later, for the sake of decency, the emperor did not declare Ji's charges, but arrested him privately, so that those who were more vigilant had already run away wrapped up in soft clothes.
And these people who are loyal to the Ji family are afraid that they will not accept Chunjia now.
Because their old master was suddenly wiped out, instead of being defeated over and over again, so that their followers lost their hearts. Due to the sudden end of the Ji family's orders, the determined old officials felt that the emperor was despicable, and that Chunjia was nothing more than that, not necessarily better than the Ji family, but just shameless and vicious.
In short, these people are still very motivated to avenge their old masters so far, and it is difficult to completely eradicate them in a short time.
Like the old Ministry of the Regent, it is much easier to clean up.
The main reason is that the Prince Regent has been suppressed by the Ji family before, and his power is not as good as that of the Ji family. Furthermore, the Prince Regent suffered losses and was cheated one after another in Chunjia's hands. Compared with the Emperor's age and seniority, it was hard not to make people have a pessimistic view of the Prince Regent. The dispute between the two sons also lost a lot of goodwill, so that the subordinates were also disappointed. In the end, after the regent passed away, there was no successor, and the old people were panicked, so it was difficult to make things happen.
At this moment, the remnants of the Ji clan were making trouble again, and it seemed that Ji Minggan was personally in command. After discussion, the court was too embarrassed to announce the truth. It only said that it was a riot caused by thieves, and took several local officials as shields.
Naturally, the emperor would not take the initiative to tell Yun Fenghuang such news, but it was Cui who entered the palace to pay his respects, and relayed the report, saying that it was the news from the son-in-law Xie Wuzheng.
"Brother 21 has a lot of eyes and ears in the North?" Yun Fenghuang felt a little regretful, "It's a pity that Brother 21 was delayed because of Her Royal Highness, otherwise, why would Brother 21 only have the good luck of today? ?”
Although the emperor allowed Xie Wuzheng to become an official, and it seems that there is no restriction at present.
But after the previous experience, it was hard for Yun Fenghuang not to be suspicious, just worried that the emperor would ask Xie Wuzheng to go home and stay with the eldest princess to stop doing things on a sudden whim tomorrow.
Hearing the words at this moment, I couldn't help but feel uneasy, for fear that Xie, the only brother with the qualifications to be a general and a prime minister, would eventually be unable to escape the suspicion of the emperor.
"My son-in-law said that Beidi is the hometown of our Xie family, so the news is naturally better." Cui said in a low voice, "I don't know much about other places, but my son-in-law has also told people in private in the past two years. Be prepared. In case there is any trouble in the future, the empress will not know."
Yun Fenghuang was very appreciative of Xie Wuzheng's foresight and foresight, and took the initiative to ask if the expenses were enough: "If it is not enough, just use the money and food that I have saved!"
In the past two years, she has successively received a lot of makeup money from the underlings.
Originally, I was a concubine in the deep palace, and there were often rewards in addition to the salary, so I lived a very comfortable life. Basically, there was no chance to use the cosmetic money outside... Like the situation of gaining fame in the early days of smallpox, after all, few.
Originally, the money was saved to buy the hearts of the fifteen princes when they grow up and seek the position of the crown prince.
But right now, listening to Xie Wuzheng's plan, thinking that the fifteenth prince is still in his infancy, there is no need to be in a hurry, why not support Xie Wuzheng first.
After all, arranging the eyes and ears everywhere is actually not very important to Yun Fenghuang today, but in the future when the fifteenth prince grows up, shouldn't it be used?
"Your Majesty, how can you use your Majesty's money?" Cui Shi hurriedly said, "I also have some dowry..."
Yun Fenghuang couldn't help but laugh and said: "Although our family Xie's lintel is not high, we didn't say anything about the idea of marrying our daughter-in-law as a dowry. Let's keep your things for now, I have my own discretion."
After talking about this matter, he asked about the recent situation of his brothers and sisters-in-law. Seeing that Cui was hesitant to speak, he asked her to say whatever she had to say, and she must not be offended.
Cui then said that Princess Sui'an was getting more and more depressed these days, and she was invited by her son-in-law, and went to the house twice to persuade her, but it didn't seem to help.
"Why is she unhappy?" Yun Fenghuang knew that Sui'an hadn't been in a good mood for the past two years. As for the reason, of course it was for the sake of the child. She can't have children, no matter how good the son-in-law treats her, how can she not feel a little depressed?
Speaking of earlier, Yun Fenghuang still felt sorry for her.
This time, she was a little annoyed too, so she said lightly, "Is the son-in-law not treating her well enough? Or does she feel that the son-in-law is a little tired?"
Where are you not happy? You said it!
As for the heirs, don't you want children as my elder brother? !
These are all things that can't be helped, you must think about it too hard, if you spread the word, you won't be able to say that my elder brother has treated you badly!
This is not what you are looking for!
Yun Fenghuang was very unhappy in his heart, and his tone was not so polite, "I can't live in luxury, and I am not happy if I am not happy?"
