Chapter 349: Civet Cat

In Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion, Yun Fenghuang didn't know that Ouyang Yanran was contacting the queen to charge him.

However, she was not idle, but she was thinking that the palace has been too calm recently...

It's nothing to be calm at first, after all, she changed her personality in the past two years, intending to take the route of being virtuous, virtuous, gentle and virtuous after being stimulated.

The problem is that Chen Jing made a statement two days ago, saying that although Zhonggong was in good health earlier, he has been ill for two years now and then. , I don’t know if the queen can hold on? It’s fine if you make it through, but if you don’t make it through... Then, who can the emperor arrange for the vacant successor?

The Gu family will definitely not be cheaper than the others. The problem is that they can find an unmarried daughter to take over as their successor. However, Gu Zhen, who is nearly ten years older than Yun Fenghuang, is still taken by Concubine Min Gui. Fancy slapping; how is it different from delivering food to a young girl of fifteen or sixteen years old?

What's more, there is another problem in that case, that is, Gu Zhen is barren, so he should treat the prince under his name well both emotionally and rationally.

If a young girl were to be the successor, maybe she would have an orthodox direct prince, then the king of Chu would be fine, and he would just arrange some palace servants to serve him. Wouldn't the status of the tenth and twelve princes be just Embarrassed?

Today's three first-line princes, although their biological mothers are all concubines, according to etiquette, their status is more orthodox than that of the subsequent princes.

Will you be willing to continue?

She is not Gu Zhen, but she did not personally raise the three princes from the ground, even if Yun Fenghuang personally raised Qin Wang Zhaoqing and other children, the fifteenth prince who was born is still the most valued.

When the time comes, don't push it outside, I'm afraid that you will have to use your brain to find a way to kill the tenth prince and the twelve princes.

If there is no successor, the ten and twelve princes still need their mother to take care of them at their current age, who will take care of them?

"In this way, as long as the empress is not well, Gu will be able to die of a headache!" Chen Jing smiled and suggested to Yun Fenghuang, "We don't have to do anything to the empress, anyway, it's just Zhonggong's irresponsible temperament. , as long as something happens to the harem and has something to do with her, she can make herself worse. Your majesty also knows her temperament, and she is the most dull and entangled. In this way, even if the empress is not good, she will be with us What's the matter?"

Yun Fenghuang felt that this was also true.

And she still has some thoughts, that is, in normal times, if Gu Zhen is gone, Chunjia may have another successor, and she still doesn't think about her.

But now that Mrs. Xie has just met with misfortune, the emperor has to consider her mood more or less, maybe something went wrong with Gu Zhen, and the latter position is temporarily vacant?

As long as the emperor doesn't appoint a new person for a while, she will have a chance, right?

The most important thing is that she couldn't breathe out in her heart: Why did so many people in the Xie family die tragically in the swordsmanship, especially the girls and young female relatives, and almost none survived, but Gu Zhen, the daughter of the Gu family , to be the queen of gold and jade, and I still want to bow down to her? !

At this moment, after thinking about it for a while, someone summoned King Qin and Zhaoqing to come to him, and taught them the opportunity to be more respectful to the ten and twelve princes in the future, and to be contemptuous of the third prince: "Your ten and twelve brothers are It is the status of the first son, even if you are the elder brothers and sisters, you should treat them with courtesy. But your third brother, hehe, does not have this qualification."

The two children are extremely pampered, and they are not very happy to hear this.

Qin Wang took the lead in objecting: "Mother and concubine, my child has never had a good face towards the third brother. It's just the tenth brother and the twelfth brother, even if they are the first sons, so what?"

Zhaoqing nodded at the side and said, "I dare not disrespect my concubine when I see my mother! Let alone the tenth and twelveth brothers?"

Two little fools!

Yun Fenghuang sighed in his heart, and thought, are you able to despise these many younger brothers and sisters because of yourself? It's not my palace yet! The queen dares not be disrespectful to Bengong, but to you, if she is not afraid that Bengong will find fault, she would not be able to deal with you as an aunt?

Shaking his head, he didn't bother to explain the reason clearly to them, so he just said softly: "The former one coaxed me to be the most obedient, but now I just gave a word of advice, so many opinions. It seems that you are sensible and filial They are all coaxing Bengong, but in fact, I have no intention of listening to Bengong at all! Sigh!"

Seeing this situation, the two brothers and sisters were a little embarrassed again, and rushed to make up for it by being coquettish and cute, saying that they are the most obedient, and the mother and concubine can do whatever they want!

"Two little ancestors!" Yun Fenghuang stretched out his hand and tapped their foreheads, sighing, "I haven't finished talking just now, you guys are making a fuss! What did the Japanese palace say two days ago? You are also big children now It's not that no one cares about it when I was a child, it should have the bearing of the eldest son and eldest daughter of the royal family. Otherwise, if it spreads out, it won't make people laugh!"

After comforting them, he explained to them, "Your father doesn't say anything, but he values ​​your ten and twelve brothers very much in his heart. As the eldest son and eldest daughter, it is the right thing for you to love your ten and twelve brothers. When outsiders know about it, they will also think that you have rules. Do you still think that you are afraid of your tenth and twelve younger brothers? And... your third, tenth, and twelfth younger brothers are all under your mother's knees, think about it , if outsiders are kind to Zhaoqing, but look down on you very much to King Qin, you can't help that outsider, how can you not hate Zhaoqing?"

The King of Qin said puzzledly: "But mother concubine, Erchen sees that the third younger brother is not promising, even if he hates people like Erchen in his heart, or hates the tenth and twelve younger brothers, so what?"

"Although your third brother looks weak, he may not be sure in private." Yun Fenghuang smiled slightly and said, "Besides, your mother likes him the most! Anyway, don't ask too many questions, and don't talk nonsense when you go out! Listen What the concubine mother does is, is it possible that the concubine mother will still harm you?"

Although the two brothers and sisters are pampered, self-willed and domineering, according to Yun Fenghuang's observation, one of them is quite good, that is, they are very young and can keep secrets.

The mistake was not designed to fall into a trap like Zhaoqing was in front of Chunjia, otherwise it would be difficult to ask a few words in ordinary times.

Therefore, Yun Fenghuang didn't care to reveal a little word of mouth.

Seeing the two children retreat thoughtfully, Yun Fenghuang squinted his eyes, thinking that although it is not difficult to provoke the children to quarrel, but at the age of these children, I am afraid that it will take some time to see the effect.

And she can't wait for Gu's to go underground immediately, she really can't wait for a moment!

At this time, the Qing people personally led the seventh prince in, and said: "Your Majesty, the place where the Seventh Prince played with the Ninth Prince is a bit far away. The servants in the palace didn't take good care of them. The servant girl just ordered someone to punish him. "

"Really?" Yun Fenghuang was a little absent-minded, ordered the Seventh Prince to come to him, hugged him for a while, and asked casually, "Why did you remember to go far away? Didn't I tell you not to run around? This palace is no better than the one inside the palace. Flat, the mountain road is rugged, don't fall and knock you."

The Seventh Prince was a little apprehensive, because the imperial concubine now has more children, and the time each child gets to spend with each other is naturally less.

Moreover, he was indoctrinated since he was a child that he was not Yun Fenghuang's own birth. Under the suppression of King Qin and Zhao Qing, he naturally felt that he was a head lower than his brothers and sisters, and he wanted to hold on to his mother and concubine more and more, not daring to let go.

At this moment, he was very timid, and said something in a soft voice, but Yun Fenghuang couldn't hear clearly, so he softly coaxed him to say it again.

Realizing that the concubine mother was not angry, the seventh prince breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a low voice: "My son... I saw that the flowers on the other side of the lake are very beautiful, and I want to pick some back to give to my concubine, so...um...so I thought Take a detour, the ninth younger brother in the middle will come back first when he is tired from walking, and Erchen will pass by alone."

Yun Fenghuang observed the words and deeds, and knew that the so-called plucking flowers for himself was probably an excuse, and it should be a child's playfulness, wanting to play in places he had never been to.

She was amused in her heart, but she didn't expose it, and kindly thanked the child for his "heart", told him not to run around after a while, patted his head, and let him out.

Then he said to the Qing people: "It's not a big deal. If Qin Wang Zhaoqing, he must be scolded. Those two children have always been bold. If they don't suppress them, they don't know what they will do. But Xiao Qi is soft-tempered. Many, but don't scare him too much, or he will become a coward in the future. Not only will Yin Qu not give up with Bengong, but Bengong will also look depressed."

She is the same as Chunjia in this regard.

That is, my children can be overbearing and unreasonable, but they must not be stupid, stupid and weak.

"Your Majesty, why doesn't this servant know how well you treat His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince?" The Qing people sighed and said, "If it's just that His Highness has gone a little farther, it's fine if you say a few words. But do you know how your Highness is today?" Where did you go, did you meet someone? He went to the Empress Dowager!"

Yun Fenghuang frowned: "I remember that this place is very far away from the residence of the Empress Dowager? Little Qi is only so old, and he can travel so many distances? Did he really go there unintentionally, or?"

"The servant girl seems to be a coincidence, but Chen Jing has already asked Chen Jing to investigate." Qing Ren said, "His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince was chasing a civet cat at that time... That civet cat finally entered the courtyard of the Empress Dowager. Your Highness's age Xiao, I don’t know who lives there, so I went straight to the door and wanted to go in. Naturally, they knew our Highness over there, and after asking the Empress Dowager for instructions, they let His Highness go in. Then I heard from the maid serving His Highness that the Great Emperor The queen mother liked it very much when she saw His Highness, and ordered someone to bring tea to His Highness, and..."

Before she could finish speaking, Yun Fenghuang's face darkened, and he said, "Wait, civet cat? Since when are civet cats allowed in this palace?!"

Originally, there were not a few civet cats in both the Imperial Capital Miyagi and the Xinggong.

Some were kept in the palace to control snakes and insects, and some were deliberately arranged by the ex-mother and empress dowager Ji Sheng in order to use the three corpse insects to murder the emperor's heir.

Since the incident of the three corpses was exposed, all civet cats in the two palaces have been swept away. Even if there are occasional fish that slip through the net, it is impossible for them to appear openly.

Not to mention the civet cat that entered the yard of the Empress Dowager...

Yun Fenghuang frowned, and asked the Qing people: "Don't talk about those who have or don't have them, go and call the imperial physician first, and ask Xiao Qi to take a good look at those who have diagnosed the three corpse insects before."

He stared at the part of the clothes that had been in contact with the Seventh Prince just now, his face sinking like water, "Show me too!"
