Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 330: I Knew Today

The faces of the siblings changed at the same time!

"...Brother Twenty-one, let's go to the back hall to avoid it for the time being." Yun Fenghuang lowered his eyes slightly, then raised his head, and said softly to Xie Wuzheng, "Although you are not an outsider, the empress must come here in person. I also have some private matters to share with Bengong, I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for the Empress if Brother Twenty-One is present."

Xie Wuzheng looked at her worriedly, hesitant to speak: "Your Majesty..."

"It's okay." Yun Fenghuang said lightly, "I didn't just enter the palace, I know what to say and do."

She said so and did so, and ordered Chen Jing to take Xie Wuzheng to avoid it for the time being, and she immediately got up to meet the queen who was coming in, and bowed down with a calm expression: "Why? Dare to work, Empress Fengjia!"

"What did you say?" Gu Zhen has been troubled by heart disease ever since Gu Li's incident, and his body has been up and down. Although he can get up and walk around now, he still has a sick appearance. Hearing this, he hurried up in person Helping her up, he said softly, "I said I came to see you, why do you have to be so serious about it?"

He also carefully observed her face, and saw that although Yun Fenghuang came back from the outside because of a reason, her temples were slightly shaggy and her expression was tired, but she was still young and well-born, and she still looked beautiful, even different from the usual beauty It can't be square, and it has a style of negative snow plum branches and frosty chrysanthemums.

The empress, who was over thirty years old, paused subconsciously, remembering her fading complexion, compared with Yun Fenghuang, it seemed even more unsightly.

Gu Zhen felt uncomfortable for a moment. Although she didn't expect to attract Chunjia with her beauty, how can a woman not love beauty?

At this moment, he was distracted for a moment, and then he continued to express condolences to Yun Fenghuang.

The concubine and concubine greeted each other as they entered the room and sat down. After a few words, Gu Zhen got to the point, saying that he came here to make amends for his father, Uncle Zhao Wu: "At that time, although my father tried his best, Wei He was really human... ...Actually, the matter between Concubine Xian and you is nothing serious, I really don't know why it happened, alas..."

Yun Fenghuang's arm hidden in the sleeve was full of veins, but his face was full of sorrow. Hearing this, he wept and said: "I grew up in the north, and I grew up listening to the stories of Uncle Zhaowu. I don't know if there is no Zhaowu. Uncle, how come the peace in the Northland these years? How can Uncle Zhaowu be blamed for this matter? In the final analysis, it was Wei He who was violent! As for the grievances between the concubine and Rou Kun's lowly maidservant, it is just the so-called non-my race. The heart must be different, if she is also a member of the dynasty, such as between the concubine and the empress, some grievances and resentments in the early years, even if there are grievances, and when encountering things, they will be in the same boat... The concubine asked herself. Kun is at odds with her, and she has been taking care of her in the past two years. Speaking of her favorite second emperor, her biological mother went out in front of my concubine!"

"...I don't want to talk about this now, I just hope that the court will send troops outside the fortress as soon as possible to eradicate that kicker, wolves, tigers and leopards, so as to comfort the spirits of Xie's family!"

The queen sighed and comforted her, but she hesitated a few times before she finally said: "The rest of the Xie family... have already found seven or eight, but your biological parents are still missing. Now that Huizhou is recovered, But Wei He is still on the run, Bengong received news from my father that there is no news about this kind of thing, maybe it is good news."

"Mistress Lao and Uncle Zhaowu are bothering you." Yun Fenghuang lowered his head and sobbed, "I really don't know how to thank Empress and Uncle Zhaowu!"

"This is all my father's business, and the Xie family is also a citizen of our country." The queen said kindly, "My father is a soldier of the country, so it is only natural for my father to protect Li Shu."

Yun Fenghuang still insisted on getting up from his seat, and bowed down to her, thanking her without saying a word.

Gu Zhen felt pity for her at first, seeing this attitude, he felt more and more that the concubine deserved sympathy, and said a lot of heart-to-heart reassurance, and then left with a sigh.

When she left, she could still feel Yun Fenghuang standing at the gate of Xuanqing Palace, watching her from afar, so she said to the left and right in the phoenix chariot: "The noble concubine is really pitiful this time. No more. If she was the kind of concubine who was not valued at home, maybe she would be less sad. But when she was in the clan, it was heard that she was the most favored girl of this generation. Not only her biological parents, brothers and sisters-in-law and grandparents love The jewel in the palm of her hand, even her uncle and aunt are very fond of her... Sigh, what's the use of consolation from people like this palace? She still has Jin Wang, and she is Jin Wang if she is not for others, but I hope she can make it through. "

The left and right whispered: "Although the imperial concubine's complexion is not very good, her speech and behavior are not weak, it can be seen that she is determined... Earlier, someone's family members had an accident, but they were paralyzed on the ground on the spot, and then they were lying on the couch for a long time. It took half a year to slow down!"

"Didn't this just go to the imperial prison to deal with Rou Kun's aunt and nephew?" Gu Zhen shook his head slightly, and said, "It's all just holding on... I don't know what will happen when the breath is gone. Otherwise, why should I pinch you?" At this time to persuade her? As she said, although Ben Gong and her have had many quarrels in the past, after all, they are both people of the country and the dynasty, and they are not aliens. When encountering problems, we always help each other in the same boat."

She didn't know that Yun Fenghuang was walking back slowly holding Qingren's hand at this moment, and she was also whispering softly: "What do you think the empress is doing so she doesn't come early or late, why come at this time? It must be suspicious, I think it might be just a cover for Bengong to vent his anger on Aunt Roukun and his nephew... So I took this moment to test it out... If Bengong just described it in the slightest, hehe..."

Stepping into the main hall where the queen was just entertained, Xie Wuzheng was already waiting inside, his eyes were red, his forehead was densely covered with beads of sweat, although his fists were tightly clenched, he was still trembling slightly.

Sensing Yun Fenghuang turning back, he raised his head and glanced, then quickly turned away, and said in a hoarse voice: "Your Majesty... just now... I was really wronged just now!"

"It's nothing." Yun Fenghuang's face was cold, and after he walked up to the first place and sat down, seeing Xie Wuzheng lowered his head, his figure was still trembling, sighed, and said in a low voice, "No matter how bad the Gu family goes, it's still a state. One of the high families. You and I come from a humble background, and the power is far inferior. If we can't bear the momentary anger, aren't we just throwing ourselves into their arms? Don't forget, they just don't want to give us the opportunity and time to hide our strengths and bide our time, so they want to do this murderous thing , forcing us to now..."

She closed her eyes and said the word with difficulty, "...a pebble against a rock!"

Yes, even though Yun Fenghuang has been in the harem for the past two years, even though the two empress dowagers have left, she is still favored by her, but...

If she were to tear it up seriously with Gu Shi, she would not be able to tear it up now.

And it is definitely not torn.

If she can tear it apart, what is she doing?

As long as Chunjia can accommodate Gu's for a day, she will at most make the whole family uncomfortable, and she has to risk being considered ignorant by the emperor!

As far as she knew so far, the emperor didn't have any unbearable aversion to the Gu family.

So we can only wait, we can only endure, we can only take our time.

"... Your Majesty, my official position is low now, and I have little contact with Uncle Zhaowu and the others." Xie Wuzheng smiled wryly, and said, "My Majesty, I am in the palace every day. Since the Empress Dowager can personally come here today to stimulate you , In the future... I don't know what I will say or do to force you to be impulsive. I... just feel wronged for the empress!"

Yun Fenghuang also smiled wryly: "Brother Twenty-One, don't worry, you saw it just now. I'm not someone who can't calm down..."

The siblings wanted to discuss the follow-up, but after comforting each other, they lost their mood, and Yun Fenghuang waved Xie Wuzheng to leave.

In the evening of that day, news spread from Xuanqing Palace that the noble concubine had fallen ill.

This was something that everyone had expected. No one would be able to ignore the news that the family was destroyed and the whereabouts of the parents were unknown.

Because the lintel of the Xie family was not high, the reason why the whole family was noticed was purely due to the imperial concubine. Now that the imperial concubine was ill, the emperor immediately rushed back to the harem to visit after hearing the news, so naturally the harem did not dare to neglect.

That night, Concubine De was the first to visit the door, and in the next few days, everyone who was decent inside and out basically went to Huanhua Hall at least once, and those who were not qualified would go through Xie Xiaoyu or Xie Wuzheng. The rich gifts are sent in like flowing water.

Even Duke Yi felt a little sympathetic, and Mrs. Xie conveyed his condolences.

Of course Yun Fenghuang siblings didn't bother to pay attention to this, at first Yun Fenghuang met some people in person, but later they all claimed to be sick and disappeared.

Xie Xiaoyu and Xie Wuzheng packed their luggage after opening the door to receive guests for a few days, and Ding You returned home.

On the day they set off, Yun Fenghuang asked the Qing people to send them off.

When the Qing came back, his eyes were red and swollen, and he said, "The son-in-law told the Eighteenth Prince that he will help find the corpses of the servants and other family members, and collect them separately..."

"This is what it should be." Yun Fenghuang also had some bitterness in his nose when he heard the words, and said with a wry smile, "Be safe and don't be impatient, we can always take revenge!"

The Qing man wiped his face hard, and nodded heavily: "The servant girl believes in the empress!"

Yun Fenghuang's heart was full of pain, not only for the end of the big family, but also for the sorrow of the Qing people, but also because of the viciousness of Uncle Zhaowu's move: in addition to forcing Yun Fenghuang to tear it up now, don't let her influence it In addition to the opportunity to change Chunjia's mind, it is also for Xie Xiaoyu and Xie Wuzheng to retire!

Think about it, although there are many children of the Xie family, there are not many who have become officials. Among them, Xie Wuzheng and Xie Xiaoyu are the ones with the most potential and the most promising. The most outstanding one is Yunfenghuang, the latter is not only the brother who has the closest relationship with Yunfenghuang, but also Cui Wan's son-in-law. They are all married to a strong wife and family, and the emperor personally promised their future... Originally, as long as the two of them are not stupid and cooperate with Yun Fenghuang in the front and rear palaces, when King Jin grows up, there will be a lot of success...

As a result, the great Xie family disappeared overnight. It was such a tragic situation. While the people of the world sympathized with the Xie family, whether it was Xie Xiaoyu or Xie Wuzheng, could they not return to their hometown to deal with the family's funeral?

Especially the son-in-law Xie Wuzheng, his parents' corpses have been found, and Ding You has no room for change in three years!

Three years... Even according to the customary rules, in fact, it takes 27 months, which is more than two years!

During this time, who knows what will happen?

Maybe another powerful newcomer in the palace will seduce Chunjia away, and Yunfenghuang will fall out of favor?

Or maybe King Jin followed in the footsteps of the fourth prince and others, and disappeared if he said nothing?

or...

Yun Fenghuang is still favored by the emperor, Jin Wang is doing well, but after all, it has dragged down Xie Wuzheng and Xie Xiaoyu for three years!

She had to admit that she really came from a humble background, and perhaps she could quickly change and adapt in a short period of time with her talent in terms of food, clothing, housing, transportation, and behavior, but the decisive pattern that she had been exposed to since she was a child could not be easily erased.

Yun Fenghuang has always felt that even if he is among men, he will never be merciful. In these years in the palace, he has often stepped on others, and even the bones and blood of innocent people advance, which has nothing to do with the benevolence of women . However, compared to the fact that Uncle Zhaowu didn't make a move, he was thunderous when he made a move. After all, he is petty!

If I had known her back then... the imperial concubine's eyes were sharp for a moment, and then they were sad: the matter has come to this point, it is useless to think about it.

I can only continue the game of chess in my hand, suppress all the impulses of hatred, and go on...

Concubine Min had been lying on the couch for half a month before she was able to get up.

During the past half month, King Qin and other emperor's heirs pushed back their homework and served in front of the bed every day.

Chunjia would come to visit whenever she was free, but because of this, she became closer to the children.

Zhong Gong couldn't help being a little worried, fearing that the emperor would favor King Qin and the others because of this, and would alienate his relationship with his son-in-law. But considering the current situation of the noble concubine, the queen is really embarrassed to say what to do, but she misses the queen mother a little bit. If Empress Dowager Yuan was still in the palace, she must be even more displeased with the imperial concubine teaching the emperor to worry about her.

It's a pity that the only elders in the palace today are the Empress Dowager, she doesn't care about things at all, and concentrates on caring for her life in Qingci Palace.

At this time Mrs. Zhaowu asked to see her, the queen was very embarrassed, she only said that her family came to urge her to help her sons compete for the emperor's favor.

Unexpectedly, after the mother and daughter met, they cleared the scene under the hint of Mrs. Zhao Wubo, and said something that would make the queen's head big.
