Chapter 642 Threat
Empress Hua watched the two people leave the main hall of Weiyang Palace, then turned around and took the hibiscus flower on her hair and handed it to Bao'er, letting him play with it, "After Qingyan was named the prince, there is a Many ministers are eyeing the position of the side concubine next to him, and even many of them are willing to be concubines. I have never liked people with wives and concubines, and I don’t want to be such a person. When His Majesty asked me a few days ago , I rejected them one by one..."
Upon hearing this, Yun Shang raised her eyebrows slightly, lowered her eyes and said nothing, the smile on the corner of her mouth was a bit bitter.
Empress Hua paused for a moment, then sighed lightly, and continued: "It's just that there are definitely not a few women who try to change their ways to climb onto Qingyan's bed, you..."
Yun Shang raised her eyes and smiled, with a gentle look on her brows: "I believe in light words."
Empress Hua's eyes fixed on Yun Shang's face, and after a long time, she said again: "I know that you two have a strong relationship, but, for most women, once they get married, her world will be destroyed. It revolves around her husband. Once there are other people around her husband, he will have to suffer alone. But it is different for a man. He can have all kinds of women by his side, and he can Love marries a woman. But in this world, there is more than just love, power, and interests..."
Yun Chang's eyes flashed with determination: "Your Majesty also said, most of them are just women."
Empress Hua was silent for a moment, "I remind you of this matter because His Majesty mentioned it two or three times in front of me recently. The reason I rejected him was that you just gave birth to Qingyan. Side concubine, it really shouldn't be. It's just that after a while, I don't know what reason I used to refuse."
Empress Hua looked at Yunshang, "You are the princess of Ningguo, and you don't have the slightest advantage in your status in Xiaguo. But I think you can use Emperor Ning to beat Xia Huanyu. After all, although Ningguo is Xiaguo Allies, but there are not only Ningxia and Ningxia in this world."
A light flashed in Yunshang's eyes, and after pondering for a moment, he said, "Your Majesty, you mean Yelang Kingdom?"
Empress Hua lowered her head and laughed: "You are always smart, so I don't need to explain."
When Luo Qingyan returned to Weiyang Palace from the imperial study room, it was almost midnight, in the main hall, under the palace lantern, Yunshang and Empress Hua were reading a book, occasionally exchanging opinions in a low voice.
Luo Qingyan followed Xia Huanyu into the hall and saw this scene, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.
"Where's Chengye?" Luo asked softly.
Yun Chang raised her head, and when she saw the two of them, she stood up and saluted, and said softly: "I was tired from playing just now, so I went to sleep in the dormitory, are you going back to the house? If you want to go back to the house I'll let the nanny carry him out."
Luo Qingyan nodded lightly and said, "It's getting late."
Yun Shang turned around and told Qin Yi, Qin Yi quickly entered the inner hall, and after a while, she came out with the nanny who was holding Bao'er. Yun Chang walked to the nanny and knocked. Bao'er slept very soundly, but she was not disturbed at all.
Luo Qingyan took Yunshang to bid farewell to the emperor and empress before leaving Weiyang Palace and heading straight for the palace gate.
In the middle of the night, the palace was very quiet. After Empress Hua came back, there were only a few concubines left in the palace, and they gradually lost their minds seeing His Majesty staying in Weiyang Palace every day. The palace seemed quite deserted. .
Along the way, I only saw guards patrolling back and forth in the palace.
Yun Chang raised her eyes and glanced at Luo Qingyan who had been silent all this time, then raised the corners of her mouth and laughed: "Which family lady did your Majesty introduce to you?"
Luo Qingyan paused, then turned his head to look at Yunshang, with a bit of helplessness in his eyes, he stretched out his hand to embrace Yunshang's shoulder and said, "There are several, but I didn't pay much attention to which family's daughter it was. I just saw the portrait, but I have already forgotten what it looked like."
Yun Shang laughed: "Your Highness, why didn't you take a closer look, I heard that there are many beauties in the Xia Kingdom, maybe they have the beauty of the city."
"Don't talk about the beauty of the city, the beauty of the country is in my own house, who else do I need to look at?" Luo Qingyan's voice was soft, but it was like a feather gently scratching the tip of Yunshang's heart, making people feel The whole heart is crisp.
Yun Shang laughed out loud, with a bit of a smile in her voice, "If your highness has a crush on a girl, just talk to me, and I will definitely carry a big sedan chair to welcome my sister into the mansion. wait."
"Then I'm afraid you don't have this blessing, unless Concubine Jin has another daughter, you will only have a younger brother and no younger sister in your life." Luo Qingyan took Yun Shang's hand, and gently squeezed Yun Shang's palm , with a bit of helplessness in his voice: "Naughty."
Yun Shang then grinned, "That's really a pity."
The two left the palace, then took a carriage back to the mansion, it was already late at night, the family of three washed up casually, and then took a rest early.
Early the next morning, Yun Chang got up early, called Qin Yi and Hua'er, carried Bao'er out of the mansion together, and went straight to the Seventh Prince's Mansion.
The gate of the Seventh King’s Mansion was closed tightly. Qin Yi glanced at Yun Shang, then quickly walked to the door and knocked on the copper ring on the door. After a long while, the gate was opened, and the doorman saw Qin Yi and Yun Shang Seemingly stunned for a moment, he hurriedly came out and saluted: "I have seen the Crown Princess, but I don't know the Crown Princess..."
Yun Chang patted Bao'er's back lightly, her voice was a bit cold: "Is your concubine in the mansion?"
The doorman replied softly: "Princess, I'm here."
Yun Shang said lightly: "Go and tell your concubine, I will come to visit."
The door boy seemed to be taken aback by Yun Shang's expression, he quickly agreed and entered the mansion in a hurry.
Qin Yi walked to Yun Chang's side and said softly: "Your maidservant, come and hug the prince of Xiaojun."
Yun Chang shook her head, hooked the corners of her mouth, "No need, Bao'er is still young and not heavy, I'll do it myself."
Yunshang stood at the door for a long time before seeing Hua Yutong greeted her in person. Maybe it was because she cried a lot last night, her eyes were still slightly red, and she was a little surprised when she saw Yunshang.
Yun Chang just pretended not to see her, and said indifferently: "Could it be that the seventh princess doesn't welcome me?"
When did Yunshang talk to Hua Yutong in such a tone, Hua Yutong was taken aback for another moment, and then quickly said, "No, no, the princess is too worried." After hastily explaining, she hurriedly stepped aside and said softly Said, "Please come inside the princess."
Yun Chang picked up Bao'er and walked slowly into the Seven Kings' Mansion.
Hua Yutong did not bring Yunshang into the courtyard where she lived, but into the flower hall. With a cold smile on the corner of Yun Chang's mouth, she raised her eyes to look at the decorations in the flower hall, and sat down slowly after a while.
Hua Yutong was a little flustered, and hurriedly ordered the servant girl to make tea and someone to bring some refreshments.
Yunshang sat quietly, smiling at her discomfort, raised her eyes to Huaer, Huaer took out the box in her hand, and handed it to Hua Yutong, Hua Yutong raised her eyes to look at Yunshang , with a little puzzlement in his eyes.
Yun Chang smiled and said: "I was cleaning the warehouse yesterday, and I saw some jewelry, which was brought from Ningguo. I thought you are also a jewelry lover, so I sent it to you. Do you see it?"
Upon hearing this, Hua'er opened the small box and showed Hua Yutong the jewelry in the box.
Hua Yutong's hands trembled slightly, his eyes fell on the box, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was somewhat perfunctory and forced: "It's... nice."
Yun Shang should not be able to see it, and said with an authentic expression: "As long as you like it, it can be regarded as some of my thoughts, so you can accept it. Today is different in the Seventh Prince's Mansion. In the past, although the Seventh Prince was not in good health, he was still favored by His Majesty. There are naturally many people who fawn on your prince, but now that the Seventh Prince has been imprisoned by His Majesty, everyone is in danger, and I am afraid that there are not many people who are willing to get close. In this world, there are always many people who add icing on the cake, and few people who give charcoal in the snow."
Hua Yutong's face turned pale again.
Yun Shang looked at Hua Yutong's complexion carefully, then frowned and said: "The seventh princess looks not very good, I'm afraid it's not very good to rest recently. The seventh princess should take care of herself." Well, now that the Seventh Prince is still in the prison, the Seventh Palace depends on you to take charge of the overall situation. Didn’t you always complain that the Seventh Palace has no place for you to talk? This is a good opportunity.”
Hua Yutong couldn't hear the sarcasm in Yunshang's words, so he bit his lips and said: "I know that I was sorry for the Crown Princess before, but it's just that the Crown Princess has fallen into trouble like this, but it's a bit out of style?"
Yun Shang couldn't help laughing, if the rabbit was in a hurry and bit people, Hua Yutong was not a kind person, how could she let her be so taunted.
"I'm afraid the Seventh Princess didn't know me well enough before, and I've never been a kind person." Yun Shang raised her eyes and looked at Hua Yutong, "Before the Seventh Princess did those things, did she ever think about whether she was wrong? Demeanor? This concubine can be regarded as benevolent to you. When the seventh concubine used her cousin to inform the seventh prince and secretly contact the subordinates of the seventh prince, did she ever think of Washington and this concubine? The seventh concubine approached Concubine, do you feel any guilt in your heart when you want to say something from this concubine? When the Seventh Concubine stood in the Taiji Hall to identify this concubine, did you ever regret it?"
Yun Shang caressed Bao'er's back, and sneered: "I'm afraid the seventh princess has forgotten that she still has elderly parents, brothers and sisters."
Hua Yutong's complexion was a little pale, and he raised his eyes to look at Yunshang, with a bit of begging in his eyes: "It's my wife who did something wrong, and my wife is willing to accept the punishment, but please don't make things difficult for my wife's family, the Crown Princess."
"Oh?" Yunshang smiled, "So the Seventh Princess has family members? I thought that the Seventh Princess only had the Seventh Prince in her heart. By the way, speaking of the Seventh Princess' family, I recently learned about a The news, I wonder if the Seventh Princess can know about it?"
Hua Yutong stared blankly at Yunshang and shook his head.
Yun Shang leaned forward slightly, "The father of the Seventh Princess, who robbed the daughters of the people, now has six lives in his hands. The elder brother of the Seventh Princess, bought and sold official positions, and sold private salt..."
With a bit of consternation in Hua Yutong's eyes, he stared fixedly at Yun Shang, his voice was raised a bit, almost shouting: "You are talking nonsense!"
Xu Shi's voice was too sharp, and Bao'er in Yunshang's arms frowned, curled her lips, and burst into tears.
Yun Chang hurriedly coaxed a few words softly, and then shook gently, and Bao'er gradually stopped crying. Yun Chang raised her eyes, with a bit of cruelty in her eyes: "If the seventh princess doesn't believe it, you can write a letter and go home, so that you can ask your father and elder brother to know whether what I said is true or not."
Hua Yutong was trembling all over, as if extremely cold, "No, no."
"This matter didn't happen recently, but was discovered a few years ago. It's just that your father and brother did it very covertly. But there are women of the same age but with outstanding looks in the Hua family. Has the seventh princess thought about why the Duke and Mrs. Guo chose you?" Yun Shang glanced at Hua Yutong With one glance, the contempt in his eyes was not concealed.
Hua Yutong fell silent, and didn't speak for a long time, but his body was trembling slightly.
The servant girl served the tea, silently glanced at Seventh Princess, then stepped aside.
Yun Chang raised her eyes to look at the servant girl, frowned and said, "You are not allowed to serve in this room, so go back."
The maid was a little hesitant, and took a look at Hua Yutong, seeing that Hua Yutong hadn't spoken, she slowly backed out.
Hua Yutong seemed to have calmed down a little, with bloodshot eyes, raised his head and asked softly, "What do you want me to do?"
Yun Shang shook her head: "No, I don't have anything to tell you to do, but I suddenly found out about it, and I was afraid that you would still be kept in the dark by your family, so I kindly came to tell you."
Yun Chang's eyes fell on the box full of jewelry, and then she smiled and said: "By the way, the Seventh Prince will be executed in a few days. If the Seventh Princess wants to, she still has a chance to visit in the prison." Visiting the Seventh Prince, after all, you are a husband and wife, after all, you are the person you promised affectionately. Those guards in the dungeon have a lot of appetite. If you have difficulties in your hands and cannot raise silver taels, since the jewelry in the box is given to you by my concubine If I give it to you, I will let you dispose of it, you can pawn it off, or you can directly give it to the guards in that prison."
Yun Chang stood up, "By the way, this concubine heard it before, I'm afraid it was too cold in the sky prison, and the seventh prince was also a little unwell in the sky prison. It hurts badly. There is a doctor in the Xiaoji pharmacy in the west of the city who has good medical skills and has a lot of research on this kind of disease. You can also grab a pair of medicine and boil it to send to the Seventh Prince to relieve the pain of the Seventh Prince. "
Hua Yutong had been sitting still, with beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, and the hair on his forehead was soaked.
Seeing this, Yunshang smiled and said: "You choose the road yourself. Whether it is right or wrong, you have to walk it yourself. This concubine wants to see, if you give up everything for him like this, how can he go? How will I treat you."
After Yun Chang finished speaking, she carried Bao'er out of the flower hall and left the Seven Kings Mansion. <
