Jing Wenxi originally wanted to speak, but after hearing what Yun Shang said, he paused for a moment, then looked at Yun Shang hesitantly and said, "Then Xi'er obeyed the princess and waited here."
Yun Chang took a deep look at Jing Wenxi, turned around and pulled Concubine Jin into the hall. Concubine Jin didn't look well, she was a little pale, and as soon as she walked into the hall, she hurried to the bedside to look. Glancing at the little baby, seeing nothing unusual, he pulled Yun Shang over and said, "You said, it was Miss Jing who designed to harm Chen Xi, but what Chen Xi clearly revealed was chickenpox, and it's not some kind of poison..."
"Mother Concubine, if Jing Wenxi intends to make Chenxi get chickenpox, the method is very simple. You only need to let Chenxi touch the dirty clothes or things that the person who has chickenpox has touched, and Chenxi is very likely to get chickenpox. Chenxi I was born not long ago, and the body of a child is naturally not as good as that of an adult, and I am afraid that a little something from a chickenpox patient can easily be infected by Chen Xi." Yun Shang turned to look at Concubine Jin with a serious face, "Jing Wenxi is here , such a thing happened in Chenxi, I have to doubt her."
Concubine Jin was silent for a moment, then raised her eyes to look at Yunshang, "Does Miss Jing like Prince Jing?"
Yun Chang paused and nodded, "Yes." But she hurriedly said, "It's just, Concubine Mother, I didn't suspect her because of that, it's just that she came by coincidence, and after she came, something happened to Chen Xi , I couldn't think of a reason for her to do this before, but then I suddenly remembered that she likes the prince. Since she likes the prince, she naturally sees me as a thorn in the side, and it is normal to do that. Although Jing Wenxi looks like a simple woman , but the daughters of the big families in the imperial city, how many of them are really as harmless as you see?"
Concubine Jin frowned when she heard this, "Since you know that she likes Prince Jing, why did you come in and why did you leave her outside? You know that Prince Jing is coming soon, so why create a relationship with Prince Jing for her?" A chance to get along?"
When Yunshang heard Concubine Jin's question, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, "Because, I believe in the prince."
It's just that Concubine Jin didn't seem to think so, she pulled Yun Shang and sat down on the chair, "Shang'er, you and Prince Jing are newly married, maybe it's good to have a stable relationship for a while, but, a man has a flirtatious heart in his bones." Prince Jing is a good man, I hope you can catch him, don't push him into the arms of other women so easily. Maybe he has you in his heart, but if there is a good-looking woman When throwing themselves into their arms, very few people would choose to push them away, because they always think that it is normal for them to have three wives and four concubines." Concubine Jin said, her complexion darkened.
Yun Shang suddenly remembered that Qin Yi once said that the concubine mother and the emperor father were childhood sweethearts, but because of the late emperor, they used the throne as a threat to force the emperor to marry Li Yiran, and the emperor obeyed. Later, after ascending the throne as emperor, no one coerced him anymore, but the concubines in the harem were never cut off. Qin Yi once said that the concubine mother could bear the existence of Li Yiran because she knew that her father had no choice but to marry Li Yiran. He looks more and more like a flirtatious emperor, soaking in the rain and dew evenly, which is not bad for every concubine.
I'm afraid that this action of mine reminded the concubine mother of some things she experienced at that time, and she must have some feelings. Yunshang thought about it, and took Jinfei's hand and said, "Mother Concubine, Chang'er has never been willing to force things about feelings. I will not hide it from Mother Concubine. Chang'er is not as affectionate to the prince as everyone imagined. Shang'er doesn't want to be trapped by love. If the prince really disappoints Shang'er in that way, Shang'er will at most ask for a divorce letter and go on alone. Mother and concubine, I have no obsession with feelings. If it is mine, I will cherish it, if it is not mine, I will not force it. Besides, I can protect myself now, and I can live a good life by myself."
Concubine Jin fell silent again when she heard the words, and said after a while, "Concubine Mother is worrying too much. Concubine Mother is not as transparent as Chang'er in some matters. However, Concubine Mother also wants Chang'er to be happy. As long as you feel happy , that's all right."
Yunshang didn't want to get entangled in this matter anymore, remembering what the guard said earlier, saying that the father was also in the palace, but he just came in, but he had never seen the father, so he asked, "I just heard that the father is also there, but , why didn't you see it?"
"Your father has something urgent to deal with in the study. I just saw that you are in a mess, but what happened?" Concubine Jin replied.
Yun Shang didn't hide anything, "Yes, Prime Minister Li rebelled, and now he is bringing the rebels all the way to Laifeng City. A few days ago, my father sent a letter to the prince, saying that I will return to the palace today. When they bumped into each other, they hurried over on horseback, luckily you didn’t go back to the palace.”
"It was true that I went back to the palace today, but Chen Xi suddenly fell ill and couldn't leave, so she had to stay." Concubine Jin said, Chen Xi on the bed began to cry, Concubine Jin quickly hugged him in her arms, Yun Chang just wanted to go forward, but was stopped by Concubine Jin, "You don't listen to persuasion to come in, I can't, but you can't touch Chenxi no matter what."
Yunshang looked at Chenxi, whose face was flushed red, blisters had already formed on his face, and he looked a little scary, Yunshang frowned, "If Jing Wenxi did what I said, let Chenxi touch it, shouldn't he touch it?" Throw away all the things in this palace that Chen Xi can come into contact with, and replace them with new ones."
Concubine Jin nodded, and just as she was saying this, the door curtain was lifted, and Madam Zheng came in from the outside with a bowl of medicine, and she was slightly taken aback when she saw Yunshang, "Why did Princess Yunshang come in? You I haven't had acne, don't get infected, get out quickly."
Yun Shang smiled at Madam Zheng, "I've already come in, it's useless to go out, I just don't touch the things my brother touched." Then she said her guess about Jing Wenxi When Madam Zheng heard this, her expression became serious, "If it's as the princess said, it's very possible. Chickenpox mostly occurs in spring and winter. This summer, this servant feels a little unusual. It's just that there is no such precedent, so I didn't think too much about it. The little prince has just reached the full moon, and his body is already weak, so the chances of getting infected by those dirty things are extremely high."
He said with a bit of anger on his face, "I didn't expect that Jing Wenxi was so scheming, and Miss Wu was so close to her, the slaves immediately looked for anything that didn't belong in the palace, and if they found something If she has no evidence, she must not be allowed to harm anyone again."
Yun Chang nodded. Madam Zheng has been waiting by the concubine's side. She knows medicine and knows everything in the palace. Concubine Jin took the medicine bowl and carefully held Chen Xi to feed him a little bit of it. Well, Chen Xi is also obedient, she just cried for a while, and obediently took the medicine. Seeing such a pitiful appearance, Yun Shang thought of her Huan'er again, and hurriedly lowered her head to hide the emotion in her eyes.
Madam Zheng searched the hall, but she didn't seem to find anything, so she checked them one by one again, but there was still nothing unusual. Yun Chang frowned, could it be that she was just thinking too much
Concubine Jin has already finished feeding the medicine. Although Chen Xi is well-behaved, she is just a child who has just reached the full moon. The medicine juice is all over her face. Concubine Jin smiled and said, "Look at this child, drink medicine and get it everywhere. Same as when I was a kid."
Yun Shang raised the corners of her mouth slightly, watching Concubine Jin take out a brocade handkerchief from her sleeve to wipe Chen Xi's mouth, Chen Xi smiled, grabbed the brocade handkerchief and stuffed it into her mouth, Concubine Jin patted his face lightly , laughed and said, "Jumpa is not delicious, but you can't eat it! I don't know why I like eating Jinpa so much. Every time I wipe his mouth, I always stuff it in his mouth."
Yun Chang's heart jumped suddenly, a light flashed in his mind, and he stood up hastily, "I see."
Concubine Jin and Nanny Zheng looked at Yunshang strangely, Yunshang pointed to the brocade handkerchief in Concubine Jin's hand and said, "I know why I couldn't find anything in this house, did Jing Wenxi use the brocade handkerchief?" Have you wiped your mouth for Chen Xi?"
Concubine Jin and Nanny Zheng were stunned, and when they thought of Chenxi's actions just now, their complexions immediately turned pale, "You mean, the problem lies in Jing Wenxi's brocade handkerchief?"
Madam Zheng lowered her eyes and thought for a while before she said, "Yes, I remember that when Miss Jing first came, she used a pink brocade handkerchief embroidered with hibiscus flowers. Two days later, she went to the city When she came back from shopping, she changed into a blue brocade handkerchief embroidered with plum blossoms. The servant girl felt that the brocade handkerchief did not match the color of the clothes she was wearing that day, so she took a second look at it. Miss Jing also said to the servant girl, yes She saw it when she went shopping, and thought it looked pretty, so she bought it. The maidservant didn't suspect it at the time, but now that she thinks about it, she feels that the blue brocade handkerchief looks like it has been used for a while, and it doesn't look like it. It looks like a new one. The blue brocade handkerchief that Miss Jing has been using since then, Miss Jing seems to like the little prince very much. The nanny who served the little prince said that Miss Jing almost gave up all her work. Robbed... Miss Jing has been by the little prince's side for a few days, there must be a chance... "
As Madam Zheng said, her complexion turned green, "It's because this servant is careless. This servant has always been afraid that something will happen to the little prince, and she pays special attention to the basic necessities of life around the little prince, but she never thought that something would go wrong in such a place." " As he spoke, he hurriedly stood up, "Just now that Jing Wenxi went to take a bath, my servant went to ask someone to steal her brocade handkerchief quietly, and my servant will see if it is really because of the brocade handkerchief."
Concubine Jin saw that Nanny Zheng blamed herself very much, so she quickly pulled Nanny Zheng over and said, "This matter is not your fault, Jing Wenxi is a caring person, and his thoughts are not shallow, you should investigate this matter clearly. Don't want to wrong someone, and we will show more concern to Chen Xi in the future."
Madam Zheng nodded, then backed out.
Yun Shang is still bowing her head in thought, although it is not yet confirmed that Jing Wenxi did it, but Yun Shang is thinking in her heart, if it is as conjectured, how deep Jing Wenxi's mind should be to be able to do it. Notice the little details and make arrangements. Moreover, it is not easy to find a Jinpa used by a person with chickenpox in such a short period of time. She suspected that someone was pointing Jing Wenxi behind her back.
She couldn't forget that in the palace, the empress told her so confidently that she would attack Concubine Jin and the little prince. Could it be that this is what the queen said? If the queen used Jing Wenxi and arranged for someone to help her, it would not be impossible.
Yunshang thought about it, so she talked to Concubine Jin, went out of the inner hall, and summoned the hidden guards, and asked the dark guards to check. These days, who has Jing Wenxi been in contact with, where he has been, and what kind of things he has done? what happened.
She didn't dare to be careless. In her previous life, she didn't even know how her mother and concubine got there. In this life, since she was reborn, she would naturally protect her relatives.
Concubine Jin was afraid that the chickenpox would infect others, so she only asked a palace lady who had had pox to wait in the palace. Although Concubine Jin didn't let Yunshang touch the dawn, it was fine to do other things.
A day passed like this, and the sky was getting darker, but there was a knock on the palace door, Yun Chang frowned, and only heard Jing Wenxi's voice from outside, with a bit of annoyance, "Princess It is said that the prince will come today, but the sky has already darkened, but there is still no trace of the prince, could it be that something happened to the prince?"
There was a sarcastic smile on the corner of Yunshang's mouth, she just said it casually, and what she said was that if the prince came, let her help convey a word. She actually kept watching and waiting, before she came to question herself.
"Maybe it was delayed on the way. The prince brought the soldiers together. There will be nothing wrong. It's just that there are too many of them, so they will move slower. It's not very conducive to driving at night after dark. Maybe it's a search. The camp is set up in the place, so I can come tomorrow." Yun Chang replied casually.
But she was also a little worried, what she saw in the forest before must have been reported to Prince Jing by the hidden guards, and what she saw today, Li Jingyan and Xia Houjing probably brought more than 40,000 people.
I don't know if the dark guards have waited for King Jing's reinforcements.
Yunshang recruited the hidden guards again, and asked him to investigate Prince Jing's situation. As soon as Yun Chang finished giving her orders, she faintly heard Jing Wenxi's sigh coming through the door.
Yun Chang couldn't help but laugh, dare to complain
As soon as the dark guard left, Yun Chang saw someone jumping in from the outside with Emperor Ning in his arms, and landed in front of Yun Chang, who hurried up, "Father Emperor."
Emperor Ning was slightly taken aback when he saw Yun Chang, "Why is Chang'er here? Isn't she with Prince Jing?"
Yun Shang hurriedly said, "Shang'er was worried about the mother concubine and the emperor's younger brother, so she came to have a look first. The mother concubine said that the father and the emperor are in a hurry, but is it about Prime Minister Li?"
Emperor Ning glanced at the inner hall with the lights on, and nodded, "I'll go and see the book brocade and Chenxi first, you go to the study and wait for me first." Then he raised his foot and walked towards the inner hall.
Knowing that Emperor Ning didn't want Concubine Jin to worry, Yunshang responded and walked towards the study. The study was a little messy. Yunshang saw a few maps and some books on the desk.
Yunshang walked to the desk and looked at the map on the table. The map included border gates of Xia State, border gates of Yelang State, and Ning State. Yunshang saw Emperor Ning draw a circle on the deer city of Xia State, Draw a circle on Kangyang.
Kangyang, Yunshang also heard a lot from Prince Jing, so he only glanced at it briefly and then turned his eyes away. Xia Guo, Lucheng.
Yunshang has also done some research on Xia Guo recently, and knows that although Lucheng is the border of Xia Guo, it is not adjacent to Ning Guo. Lucheng is a city near the sea, and there is a mountain between Ningguo and Ningguo. What is the intention of the father to set aside this deer city alone? Could it be that they want to bypass the mountains from the sea and attack Lucheng directly
Yun Shang pondered for a moment, but shook her head. Ningguo's maritime combat capabilities are not very good, and if it attacks Lucheng, the supply of combat preparation materials will be a big problem. However, the geographical location of Lucheng is good. Lucheng is a belt-shaped city. The southernmost side is near the sea, and the northernmost side is almost deep into the hinterland of Xia Kingdom. If it is captured, it can guarantee the supply of the army.
When Emperor Ning came in, he saw Yunshang staring at the map in a daze. Emperor Ning paused slightly, and said with a smile, "Look at you looking so serious, but what did you see?"
Yun Shang smiled and said, "Shang'er saw that the emperor drew Kangyang and Lucheng on these maps alone. The prince of Kangyang told Shang'er before that it is the gate of our Ning country. If Kangyang falls, Kangyang After Yang, without the geographical advantages of defense, and without generals who can lead troops to fight, it is almost difficult to stop Xia Guo's offensive pace. Moreover, although the generals guarding the city of Kangyang are veterans, they are just a bit arrogant and arrogant. Xia Guo's military advisers are very aware of his weaknesses, and I'm afraid they will make use of them."
Emperor Ning was a little surprised, "Prince Jing also told you this?"
Yun Chang smiled, "It's just because I saw this place was drawn on the map of the prince that day, so I asked a few questions out of curiosity. Chang'er also told the prince that the ancient Yunwei girl and villain are difficult to raise, If my father sent me to be the supervisor of the army, I might be able to restrain General Qi Lang's faults, he is arrogant, I am even more arrogant than him, even with my status, I am afraid that he would not dare to do anything to me."
Emperor Ning laughed when he heard the words, "It's not a bad move. It's just that what you were looking at was Lucheng?"
Yun Chang nodded, "Yun Chang saw that Father had circled it, so he secretly speculated why Father had circled it alone."
Emperor Ning raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Oh? Then tell me why?"
"Shang'er guessed that it should be because of the location of Lucheng. Lucheng is not a big city, and it is not very eye-catching on the map, but it is a bit special. The north side goes deep into the hinterland of the country of Xia, only about 120 miles away from the imperial city of the country of Xia, if it can be captured, it will be just around the corner to approach the imperial city of the country of Xia." Yun Shang said softly.
Emperor Ning nodded, "Then what do you think, why has no one tried to capture such a place?"
Yun Shang smiled slightly, "It's also because of its location, the mountain next to it is so high that it is almost impossible to attack from the mountain side, and if it passes through the sea, water warfare has great limitations. Construction, selection of soldiers, and secondly, if it is really an attack from the water, combat readiness and supplies are also very big problems."
Emperor Ning fell silent when he heard the words, and said after a while, "I thought you only knew about the fights in the house, just like other women. Unfortunately, you are a woman."
