The emperor's anger didn't know where it came from, and the eldest princess of Jinyang was also angry, and she lost her face at that time: "If you don't look at it, don't look at it, why should the emperor be so angry? Le'an is a person with two bodies now , you scared Le An, what happened?"
The emperor kept a cold face and did not speak. Concubine Feng Gui said softly to Princess Jinyang: "The emperor has been anxious these days, and his temper is not very good. Please take care of him, Your Highness."
Concubine Feng Guifei spoke so sincerely that even Princess Jinyang was embarrassed to refute her kindness, and immediately got off the kang: "Then my sister is leaving, please take care of your brother."
Princess Jinyang's words were also a little angry, and she kept talking to Su Yan when she left the door: "Did you see it? I don't know what he thinks!"
Seeing the emperor's reaction today, Su Yan confirmed her conjecture yesterday, Su Yan held Princess Jinyang's arm, and whispered in her ear: "It is impossible for the emperor not to know that there is something wrong with my body. The only possibility is that he doesn't want people to know that something is wrong with him."
Princess Jinyang was stunned, then frowned and said: "But he just guards against others, why is he also guarding against me?"
"Don't forget, your uncle is Chu Yan." Su Yan reminded Princess Jinyang with one sentence.
That's right, her uncle is Chu Yan. In the eyes of the emperor, her position is not pure anymore. Thinking of this, Princess Jinyang sighed again and again: "Then what should I do? He is obviously not in good health, but he can't always drag on like this."
Su Yan said: "In my daughter's opinion, don't meddle in this matter, because meddling is useless. The emperor's intention is obvious. If you inquire about his condition many times now, you might make him even more angry. I might think you have ulterior motives."
Although she knew that what Su Yan said was correct, Princess Jinyang was still a little worried about the emperor's condition. She was hesitating when she heard Su Yan say again: "Don't worry too much. If you don't intervene, it doesn't mean you don't want to worry about it." Let others intervene." Su Yan said softly, and then said: "Daughter hasn't visited the empress for a long time, let's go to the empress's palace for a while."
The queen has been ups and downs in the harem for so many years, it is impossible to have no connections of her own as shown. If the empress is really the kind of person who has no power to fight back against the emperor, she may have been killed by the emperor without a sound.
Some things they can't do, don't mean the queen can't do it. At the beginning, she risked the danger to help the queen to treat her illness, so the queen would never refuse to help her with such a small favor.
Princess Jinyang didn't quite understand what Su Yan meant, but she still listened to Su Yan.
In Fengzao Palace, the queen is dressed in a phoenix crown and is arranging flowers in a vase, just like the first time Su Yan saw her.
Seeing Su Yan and Princess Jinyang coming in, the queen put down the flowers and scissors in her hands, and said with a smile, "Have you seen Concubine Feng?"
Su Yan's expression was indifferent, and she said in her heart that it was true.
Princess Jinyang said in surprise, "How does the Empress know?"
The queen smiled, and she was indescribably calm: "I don't know, I just heard that you went to the palace to visit the emperor, so I guessed it."
Su Yan greeted the queen, and said with a smile: "Since the empress has guessed this, why don't you guess why my mother and I are here?"
"You are much smarter than your mother." The queen glanced at Su Yan, and it seemed that she was smiling in her eyes, which meant nothing.
Princess Jinyang looked at her at a loss, not knowing what kind of riddle these two people were playing.
The queen got off the ground with the help of the maid, and said to Su Yan and Princess Jinyang: "It's better to hit the sun than to choose the day. Come in with me."
Su Yan got up immediately, Princess Jinyang looked at Su Yan suspiciously, and asked her what was going on with her eyes, Su Yan shook her head pretending to be mysterious, just smiled and followed the queen in.
But actually, Su Yan didn't know what the queen wanted to do.
When she entered the room just now, she understood what the queen asked herself. The queen was exactly what she thought, and there were people around the emperor, but she couldn't understand the queen's actions afterwards.
Walking to the door of the inner room, the queen suddenly turned around and looked at the palace people who followed her step by step behind her: "Come in if you want, and listen if you want, but no matter who your master is, you have followed me for so many years anyway. I would like to advise you, what you see and hear next is enough to kill you. Whether you want to see or hear, you decide for yourself.”
After finishing speaking, the queen turned around and entered the room. Princess Jinyang and Su Yan glanced at each other, and then followed closely. The people at the door looked at each other, and finally only two people chose to enter the room.
Glancing at the two court ladies who entered the room, the queen withdrew her gaze lightly, as if the two of them were not present, walked directly into the room, took out a painting scroll from a painting basket, and put it on the table Unfold slowly.
Su Yan stood at the side calmly, judging from the appearance of the scroll, this painting must be at least ten years old. As the scroll slowly unrolled, the yellowed canvas due to improper preservation confirmed Su Yan's judgment.
This painting depicts a woman, and the queen opens from the feet up, bit by bit, inch by inch.
Until the queen fully opened the portrait, Princess Jinyang exclaimed: "This is... Concubine Feng Gui!"
Su Yantao also squinted her eyes, looked up at the concentrating queen, and then looked down at the figure in the painting.
The girl in the painting has picturesque eyebrows, she is in the blooming season, she looks almost exactly the same as Concubine Feng Gui now. It seems that this Concubine Feng Gui, who was sent into the palace by the second prince, is not simple.
The queen caressed the face of the woman in the painting with her well-maintained fingers, and suddenly said: "Her name is Feng Lian'er. All the sufferings in my life are caused by this person."
Su Yan stood aside and listened, raising her eyebrows slightly.
Concubine Feng Gui looks exactly the same as the Feng family back then, out of the emperor's guilt towards Feng family back then, it is reasonable for the emperor to favor this Concubine Feng now.
But she didn't know why the queen suddenly said this to herself, but there was no doubt that the queen must have her own intentions, and what she had to do now was to see what the queen wanted to do.
"I was born in the Zhao family, a rich family. I have been a jewel in the family since I was a child. When I was seventeen years old, I married the emperor who was still the prince. The next year, I gave birth to the emperor's eldest grandson. It can be said that my life Eighteen years of glory are incomparable, even now, no woman can match. But maybe the old saying is true, everything that I am proud of is completely lost when I was eighteen years old. stop."
Speaking of this, the queen paused, rolled up the scroll and put it away before saying: "Twenty-five years ago, that was the second year after I married the emperor. At that time, I had just given birth to the first prince On the day of confinement, Emperor Yang accompanied me back to my natal home to visit. But that day... I met her with a big belly, Feng Lian'er."
Speaking of this, Princess Jinyang held the queen's hand distressedly, and comforted softly: "I know all this, don't think about it anymore."
The queen withdrew her hand expressionlessly, looked up at Princess Jinyang and said, "Really? So you know all of this. Now that you know it, let me tell you something else you don't know. Jinyang , you sit down first, listen to me quietly, and listen to me quietly, okay?"
