After a Chinese Valentine's Day banquet in the harem, those beautiful men and women did not make any good couples, but they made the emperor and the queen unhappy. After it was reported that the queen invited herself to the Buddhist hall, it was also reported that Concubine Dezhao also prayed for the deceased palace residents behind closed doors in her Mingyue Palace.
There were two giant Buddhas missing from the harem, which made Concubine Su appear to be the only one in the family. Is this to elevate the King of Chu to the status of his legitimate son and make him the crown prince? The ministers each had a secret in mind, and some secretly sent gifts to the Prince of Chu's Mansion. This was a private surrender, but more people still had a wait-and-see attitude. It was not easy to guess what the emperor was thinking today.
I thought that His Highness Prince Yan was already of high status and could become the crown prince soon. But look, what happens now? He has been in confinement since his wedding. In fact, that kind of thing is not possible. There is no evidence in front of you, it is just a legend. How could the emperor be so wise and only listen to legends!
So the only possibility is that the emperor wants to ban King Yan!
As long as they think of this, those courtiers who are little Jiujiu at heart have a creepy feeling. They may not know when someone will dislike someone again. There is only one high-ranking position, and a new round of battle for the right to inherit is about to begin. , some older ministers can still remember the incident where the King of Jin seized the throne more than thirty years ago.
Blood flowed like a river, and everyone was killed. I don’t know how many people died, including royal family members and Gong Yun’s descendants. It can be said that the cards were reshuffled with blood. Later, although all members of the Jinwang lineage were killed , but he killed a thousand people and lost eight hundred to himself. After he succeeded to the throne, the former emperor only slept a few hours a day in order to work hard to govern. This tortured the prime minister to the point where he had only a few years to live, and the throne fell to the current emperor. superior.
Speaking of Emperor Zongwen, he did not experience such a big battle for the right to inherit the throne. It was actually because some of the former emperor's descendants were directly defeated in the battle with the King of Jin for the right to inherit the right to the throne. They died early. The remaining queen's legitimate sons had a body. Unfortunately, the prince who had only been in office for a short time died early. Then the late emperor had a great career and he was the only heir left. The throne fell on him, and he had no shirking responsibility.
But this man is not easy to fool. When he first became the emperor, he also rectified the administration of officials. He severely dealt with a group of corrupt and ignorant officials, acted vigorously and ruthlessly, and managed the Qin State safely and properly. It can be seen that he is also a The Lord is capable, not to mention that after so many years as the emperor, it becomes increasingly unclear who he really is. Who does he really care about
Of course, with the turmoil outside, such big things are men's business. Mo Xuetong naturally won't take it to heart. If the sky falls, there will be a tall man holding it up. It is obvious that Feng Jueran is a tall man who can hold up the sky in her heart. , all she can do is help him tidy up the backyard and pay attention to his affairs from those small things.
Since that banquet, Feng Juoran was dragged back to court again, so no matter how unhappy he was, he was dragged to court.
When Mo Xuetong got up, it was already past breakfast time. She was the only mistress in the house. Feng Juoran had told others not to call her and to sleep until she woke up naturally every day. However, her body was still a little tired. Fortunately, after getting up, she woke up naturally. I feel less tired now. I know that the poison in my body has not been cured, so it must be related to it.
But now, she doesn't want to think too much about this matter. Anyway, it is like this, and even if she doesn't want to, it makes her panic. She has to think about things for the better. At least Feng Juedan's medicine is much better than what her mother took at the time. , I don’t have to linger on the sick bed all the time, I can also get up and take care of things, but I am more tired easily.
Fortunately, there is usually nothing going on in Prince Xuan's Mansion. Although there are many concubines in the backyard, they obviously don't need her to take care of them, and they are free. The only real one is Aunt Qin. Feng Jueran asked her not to disturb Mo Xuetong. Rest, so one can be considered clean.
After drinking the medicine that she had cooked a long time ago and having breakfast, Mo Xuetong felt a little better, but she just had no appetite. She looked at the porridge and side dishes on the table and put them down after only a few bites. He touched Mo Xuetong's forehead reassuringly and felt that he didn't have a fever, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Ever since she knew that Mo Xuetong was also poisoned, Mo Lan's heart was worried every moment, fearing that something might happen to her. The sick and frail look of the madam kept flashing in front of her eyes. Although she was young at that time, she could I already understand the truth. If the princess becomes like the madam...
When she thought of this, she felt nervous and anxious, so she did not relax when delivering the medicine and watching Mo Xuetong drink the medicine.
"I'm fine. Maybe I picked up a book yesterday and read it late, so I'm a little tired." Mo Xuetong knew what Mo Lan was worried about, so she smiled softly and patted her hand away.
"Princess, I didn't tell you, why are you reading so late? If you stay so late again, I will go to the prince and ask him to keep an eye on you when you go to sleep." Mo Lan stared at Mo Xuetong. complained.
Feng Juoran didn't sleep here last night, and Mo Xuetong couldn't sleep alone. He simply tossed and turned for a long time. He got up and picked up a book and flipped through it. After flipping through it, he turned over it again. He went to bed a little late at night. , it was Mo Yu who was on night duty at that time, and Mo Lan complained for a long time this morning.

"Okay, I won't be so late next time, okay!" Mo Xuetong smiled to comfort Mo Lan, who was obviously unhappy.
"Princess, please remember what you said." Mo Lan said seriously as she stood in front of Mo Xuetong, with some suspicion in her eyes.
"Really, really, I will definitely remember it. Don't worry, Mo Lan. I also hope that I will be energetic every day and can go to the garden to collect some lotus dew and make tea." Mo Xuetong nodded hurriedly and promised. In front of Mo Lan, she was just ignorant. She had no choice but to make Mo Lan so sensible.
"Princess, where are you going to collect lotus dew? It's already this time. There's no dew on the lotus leaves. There's a lot of sunshine, but I don't know how to collect it!" When the door curtain was raised, Mo Yu blinked with a smile on his face. Come in, she came in with a plate in her hand. The white jade vase containing mutton fat contained the lotus dew that Mo Xuetong mentioned earlier.
If the lotus dew collected by Qingli is soaked in water, the tea will have a faint fragrance of lotus. It is very refreshing. Feng Jueran likes the smell very much. Ever since Mo Xuetong collected the dew and brewed it for him to drink, he He kept reading it, but he didn't allow Mo Xuetong to take it away by himself.
Looking at the sunshine outside the house, Mo Xuetong also smiled. It turned out that she really got up too late.
"How is He Yufen's place?" Picking up the lotus dew handed over by Mo Yu, Mo Xuetong carefully wiped the water stains on the edge with a handkerchief and asked softly.
In fact, He Yufen was not sent to the building that day. Feng Juoran only made a show of it, secretly brought the person back, threw him in the woodshed of the palace, and put him under supervision. Only a few confidants knew about this. , the person who takes care of it is Feng Jueran, and the person who usually delivers food is Mo Yu.
"When the servant went to deliver the meal just now, the eldest lady of the He family begged the servant that she wanted to see the princess. She had something important to tell the princess." When it came to business, Mo Yu also put away the teasing look on his face. With an expression on her face, she replied sternly, speaking of it, she really didn't like the eldest lady of the He family, and she didn't understand why the prince and princess wanted to keep her.
In Mo Yu's view, he dared to murder the princess like this, even if she was cut into pieces, it would not be enough to vent her anger.
"She has said this more than once. I don't think the He family has any other important things. Apart from the fact that the He family only cares about wealth and wealth and does not hesitate to give their daughters to this and that, what other important things can happen to the He family!"
Mo Xuetong was silent for a moment. The He family's most painful thorn in Feng Juoran's body in the previous life was now a thorn in Mo Xuetong's heart. They deliberately left He Yufen behind just to know how much she knew. , He Yufen seemed to be more scheming than He Yuxiu, so he left her in the house to cool down just to see her reaction.
Now it seems that she does know something, so she should know more than He Yuxiu.
"Princess, it's almost time. I secretly visited He Yufen yesterday. When I heard some noise, she shrank nervously. She looked really frightened and frightened. I think it's best to ask at this time. The timing." Mo Lan was no more reckless than Mo Yu and thought for a while.
Mo Xuetong nodded approvingly and put down the clean mutton-fat white jade bottle in her hand: "Mo Yu, please stay here, put the water in the bottle, and wait for the prince to come later to make tea. I Take Mo Lan over there and have a look."
"Yes, I will release you now." Mo Yu nodded.
Since He Yufen was brought back secretly, it was definitely not appropriate to bring her to the main courtyard. Mo Lan was the only one she brought with her. Mo Xuetong went to the woodshed in the backyard. In front of the woodshed, the gatekeeper opened the door for her. After opening the door, Mo Xuetong walked in with Mo Lan.
Hearing the human voice, the figure inside immediately shrank into a ball with fatigue and started to tremble.
Looking at the sunshine outside the window, Mo Xuetong could clearly see He Yufen's eyes exposed from behind her sleeves. She could clearly see that the person opposite was Mo Xuetong. He Yufen suddenly pulled down the sleeves covering her face and rushed towards Mo Xuetong. Mo Lan, who had been staring at her closely, quickly stood in front of He Yufen.
"He Yufen, do you still want to murder the princess?" Seeing that Mo Xuetong was almost knocked down, Mo Lan raised an eyebrow and shouted angrily.
"No, Sister Mo Lan, I'm not. I just have something to say to the princess." He Yufen said anxiously.
Mo Xuetong's eyes fell on He Yufen's face. She hadn't seen him for a few days. He Yufen looked so thin that she was almost out of shape, her cheeks were sunken, and her skin was pale. She hadn't taken a shower for so many days in the summer, and she still smelled of rotten food. The general smell is really unpleasant.
The servant brought a chair from outside and placed it at the door. He said smartly: "Princess, please sit down. The prince has asked you not to get too close, for fear that the smell will intimidate you. There are people at the door here, and no one will come."
Mo Xuetong nodded and sat down on the chair. She understood that this was Feng Jueran telling her that no one would listen to what she said here. Looking at the boy's quick movements, she knew that he was also a kung fu expert, and he was standing on the side. Ahead, he happened to be blocking He Yufen. This was because Feng Jueran was wary of He Yufen hurting herself. Her heart warmed and a faint smile appeared on her face.
He Yufen looked at the woman sitting in the chair, with a hint of coquettishness in her beauty, and felt bitter in her heart. Why couldn't she see through it, and how could she think of that position in vain? Was it the prospect that Concubine Zhao said was really promising, or was it herself? She has always been reluctant to stand behind others. Seeing everything in front of her, she still doesn't understand.
In the heart of that superior person, there is only Mo Xuetong, but they have never been able to see through it. Concubine Zhao actually said that she had used tea to make them renounce. Did they look like they were eccentric at all? Even when he was interrogating himself, he was afraid that she would smell like him. How could the man who just protected her in his heart have other women in his eyes.
In fact, she had already been defeated. She had already been defeated when she entered the mansion... (To be continued)
