"Sister, I..."
Princess Hui covered one side of her face, while the other side was extremely pale, her eyes averted, and she said in a trembling voice.
Concubine Cui said coldly: "Qin'er grew up in Cui's family and has been with me for more than ten years. Before that, she took care of your daily life. Besides you, who else can order her?"
Princess Hui lowered her head, speechless for a long time.
After a while, she gritted her teeth suddenly, with a strong hatred on her pale face, she said sharply: "That's right, it was me! I asked Qin'er to do this, a jade bracelet is nothing, I am To ruin her reputation, this is just the beginning, they ruined my children, I want them to die!"
"What's wrong with Li Da?" Concubine Cui frowned and asked.
"Da'er, after Da'er was tortured with a stick, he will no longer be humane!" Princess Hui squeezed out a few words through her teeth.
Concubine Cui Gui frowned even deeper, and after a while, she whispered, "Stupid!"
The king of Shu was expelled from Beijing due to the last incident, and even this time the Great Court Meeting was not called, and their power in the court was also severely damaged. The influence of other officials is even deeper. The Cui family and her schemes and arrangements for more than ten years have been almost destroyed. It is impossible to recover in a short period of time.
What can be done now is forbearance, because even if the forces in the court and China are severely injured, they still have no opponents. The Cui family has an extremely strong background in the gentry, court, and folk. No one, including His Majesty, dare to underestimate it. Look, the other princes want to get their hands on the East Palace, it's just a dream.
If he can maintain the status quo, he will be sure to win, but if he continues to do like before, he will be pushed into the abyss step by step.
Concubine Cui Gui looked at her and said coldly: "This matter will end, one year, at most one year, no matter it is Li Yi or whoever, you can deal with it as you want. If you do such a stupid thing again, Don’t blame me for being ruthless if Xian’er’s event is ruined!”
When it came to the last sentence, his tone was already extremely severe.
"I see." Princess Hui nodded, gritted her teeth and said, but the hatred in her eyes was still strong.
…
…
"The King of Duanyang is inhumane?" Li Yi was shocked when he heard the news from Li Xuan.
Isn’t it hitting the board? It’s hitting on the stomach instead of lying down. How could it be injured..., where it hurts, is it because of the capillary blockage in a certain place caused by fear, the blood vessels are blocked, and the peripheral nerve necrosis eventually leads to the necrosis of the cavernous body...
"It's spread among the rich and powerful circles in Beijing, don't you know?" Li Xuan looked at him and asked.
Li Yi shook his head. He never knew what the elite circle in Kyoto was like. Besides, he had stayed at home to look after the children for the past few months, or just accompanied Ruyi, so he had no time to meddle in other people's business.
"It is said that Prince Hui and Concubine Hui invited many miraculous doctors, even the imperial physicians, but they failed to cure Duanyang County King." Li Xuan sighed. For a man, this is already a great shame in life.
"It's really pitiful." Although I can't empathize with him, but as a man, even if Duanyang County King is no longer a thing, he is still worthy of pity in this matter.
Li Yi also sighed, and said, "Yeah, that's good... God's fault!"
Li Xuan turned his head and looked at him with a helpless expression. Don't you know who did the evil
Thinking of something, Li Yi looked at Li Xuan and asked, "By the way, is that aunt just now Princess Hui?"
Li Xuan nodded and said: "Yes, she is Princess Hui, the first mother of Concubine Cui Gui, and the mother of Prince Duanyang."
"There are two sisters, one is the imperial concubine and the other is the princess, is the Cui family really so powerful?" Li Yi asked again.
Li Xuan nodded and said: "The Cui family is one of the most powerful families in Jingguo. It has been going on for at least hundreds of years, and its influence is even greater. Apart from the royal family, there are only a few who can compete with the Cui family. Several families... "
Li Yi knew about these families or the royal family before, but not as detailed as Li Xuan.
More than a hundred years ago, the power of the aristocratic family was powerful for a while, and even the royal family had to avoid it by three points. Although it is no longer the grand occasion at that time, the background is still there. If there is no legitimate reason, even the royal family is not easy to provoke.
Of course, this is not to say that the royal family really can't touch them, it's just that those aristocratic families have too deep roots and have a huge influence on the court and the people. Strong measures cannot be taken.
What's more, the relationship between aristocratic family and aristocratic family, between aristocratic family and royal family is also intricate.
There are many concubines in the palace, and almost every one has a certain force behind them. Concubine Cui represents the Cui family, even the Empress Empress, and behind her is a powerful family that is not weaker than the Cui family. concubine, even Li Xuan's own concubine...
The interest entanglements involved cannot be explained in simple words.
The more Li Yi talked, the more confused he felt. He shook his head and asked again: "The Cui family has almost monopolized the jewelry business, so it must be very profitable. Compared with your father-in-law's family, which one is richer?"
"In Jingguo, apart from the royal family, there is no family richer than the Wang family. However, for ordinary people, the wealth of the Cui family is still unimaginable."
Li Yi nodded and said, "Then do it!"
"What are you doing?" Li Xuan raised his head and asked curiously.
"Cheers!" Li Yi said, raising the teacup in his hand.
…
In Yingcui Palace, the guards soon brought news that the bracelet was stolen by Concubine Cui's maid. After the incident was revealed, she intentionally planted it on Mrs. Li Xianbo, and was severely punished by His Majesty. Saved, but the end is still miserable.
Li Yi wasn't surprised by this at all. Princess Hui had been trying to bring the matter to the old emperor just now, but she didn't know that she was courting death.
It's not good to put the blame on someone, put the blame on Ruyi, ask Lao Chang, see if he has the ability
What the old emperor suffered from was asthma but not dementia, and he bumped into it head-on.
However, this news is a bit intriguing for others.
A little maid, stealing the treasures of the imperial concubine, and blaming the county uncle's wife, or the wife of the county uncle Li, must have the guts to dare to do this
His Royal Highness the King of Shu once sinned against the county uncle Li, and he was almost beaten to death in front of all the officials. Now, he can still enjoy himself in the Furong Garden. Where is His Highness the King of Shu
The eldest son of the emperor, the prince who is most likely to be in charge of the East Palace, is now expelled to Shuzhou to herd sheep. The officials of the King of Shu are like hiding from the plague when they see him. At this juncture, they actually go to provoke him
Could it be that Concubine Cui Gui is really in a daze
Everyone can clearly see the current situation of the court. Even if the college is about to open, Li Xianbo is being valued by His Majesty and is in high spirits. No one in the court can rob him of his edge. , now it is best to keep a low profile and wait for the opportunity. It is really stupid to touch the other party's brow at this juncture...
