"A person who died in ancient times, yes, a person who died in ancient times will never be forgotten by the Ai family for decades." Empress Dowager Feng shook her head: "That was the person that the late emperor liked, the legitimate wife that the late emperor wanted. But back then, it was Queen Mother Ye chose the Ai family."

Empress Dowager Feng shook her head: "On the wedding night, the late emperor was talking about Ling Shuang. Empress Dowager Ye promised him to ask Chen Lingshuang to come into the palace to be his concubine, and promised that she would be his concubine when the late emperor ascends the throne. But the emperor wanted her to be his legitimate wife. He actually moved his wife. Understand the thoughts of the Ai family."

"The Ai family is the daughter of the Feng family, and the Feng family was very prosperous at that time. Besides, the late emperor's position as the crown prince is unstable, how dare you? How could the Queen Mother Ye allow it? Chen Lingshuang was given death by the Queen Mother Ye. The Ai family was supported by the Queen Mother Ye "Yes." Queen Mother Feng shed tears.

"The Ai family is not favored. They have not been favored since I became the princess. After entering the palace and becoming the queen, they are also not favored. He either didn't come on the first or fifteenth day of the lunar month, and when he came, he refused to do anything with the Ai family. He even gave Aijia prescribed medicine.”

Queen Mother Feng took a deep breath: "If it weren't for Queen Mother Ye, the Ai family would have died long ago. But the Ai family still held on. The Jin family's child was born at that time. The Ai family couldn't give birth, how could they? It was the Ai family. The family's attack, as you know, was the Ai family's attack."

"My dear, this is a long time ago, why bother mentioning it?" Aunt Zhuang wiped away her tears.

"Do you know that the Ai family only feels sick when they think of the late emperor? Fangru, the Ai family feels sick. I feel sick. It was because he was incompetent and did not dare to oppose Queen Mother Ye. It was his greed that harmed his Ling Shuang. But he will All this is blamed on the Ai family."

Empress Dowager Feng sneered with tears in her eyes: "If he likes Chen Lingshuang so much, how come he dotes on the Yang family so much? It's still because of him that the Ai family is like this."

"How could he secure the throne without the support of the Feng family? Now, his son has forced the Feng family to this point. How could our Feng family fail them? How could we fail them?" Queen Mother Feng said. , sweeping the tea cup on hand to the ground.

Aunt Zhuang knelt down and said, "I have been wronged all my life."

"They only looked at my beauty, watching me become the Crown Princess, the Queen, and the Queen Mother. But who knew that when I was the Crown Princess, the Crown Prince would not come close to me and only hated me for killing his true love. The Queen. When I was the Queen Mother, I had no airs, but when I was the Queen Mother, I still had to look at people's faces. I was childless and alone, and now that the Feng family is like this, I am still half-paralyzed... How many sins have I done in my previous life? What did I do?”

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." Aunt Zhuang cried and held Empress Dowager Feng's hand.

"Mother, please cheer up."

"The Ai family... It's always been like this in this life. It's always been like this. It would have been better if the Ai family had not been the crown princess back then. Instead, they had become an old lady from a wealthy family. Now they should be a complete family."

Empress Dowager Feng laughed again: "This harem is just a place for cannibalism. No matter what your family background, you will be eaten when you come in. No bones will be left. The Ai family is also tired."

"Your Majesty... My Majesty, Fangru will always be loyal to you, and she will always be loyal to you." Aunt Zhuang cried.

"Get up, the Ai family still has you. Get up." Empress Dowager Feng took a deep breath: "The Ai family is not in a hurry, there is no rush, there is still time."

Empress Dowager Feng already showed her inferiority.

Qi Yixiu looked at the person standing below: "Is it really Princess Jin?"

"When I get back to the emperor, it's Princess Jin. I'm afraid she has stored this medicine for many years. But everyone has found it. Her personal maid has committed suicide, but it was still found out that the person who came into contact was an eunuch from Queen Mother Feng. This The eunuch was the younger brother of an eunuch whom Empress Dowager Feng had killed earlier. He came here to avenge his brother. Now he has been waiting for many years to get close to him. "

"The people in Cirui Palace were not on guard against him, so they asked him to get close to the Queen Mother's diet. It happened that the poison was colored but tasteless, and was put into Queen Mother Feng's soup. It happened that the soup was dark in color, but she didn't notice it. come out."

"And because the poison did not act in time, it has been four or five days, and there is no trace. If the eunuch from Princess Jin's side hadn't accidentally seen it, he really wouldn't have been able to find this person." Chu Si said. Qi Yixiu looked at what the eunuch had signed: "Check again to see who else this person has been in contact with. Concubine Jin... If the Queen Mother is anxious not to pursue the case, just send it out according to the rules."

The main thing is that Qi Yixiu still has some friendship with Princess Ganquan.

It's just that if Princess Jin died like this, it would be a good thing not to pursue the family, let alone pursue the title.

In Cuiyun Pavilion, Yuan Xiao said: "I'm afraid this matter is not simple. In Ruiqing Palace, a eunuch named Zhang was brought into the Inner Punishment Department. All the people from Princess Jin's family also entered the Inner Punishment Department. In addition, the servant inquired about the condition of Empress Dowager Feng’s legs.”

"You mean, it's not because of illness?" Shen Chuliu frowned: "Princess Jin? Why is this?"

"Master, when Princess Jin was favored in the early years, she gave birth to a prince first, but there was no preface. The servant inquired and found that the child died when she was a few months old. Now that I think about it, I am afraid there is something fishy. Princess Ganquan is It only happened a few years later. After giving birth to Princess Ganquan, Princess Jin Taifei fell out of favor. "

"It turns out it's an early grudge." Shen Chuliu nodded: "You should pay close attention. The key point is to see how Queen Mother Feng's illness is. How it is and whether it can be cured." Shen Chuliu said.

The Lantern Festival went as expected.

"Master, are you thinking that Empress Dowager Feng is in trouble?" Zi Zhu asked cautiously.

"I can't tell. She has no children and the Feng family has collapsed. What if she loses her mind?" Shen Chuliu frowned.

"It can't be said. There are still people in the Feng family, and her mother is still alive. There are also Concubine Qianshu and the second prince. She... shouldn't be." Zi Zhu said.

"It's better to be prepared and be prepared." Shen Chuliu sighed: "What a good year this year is."

Things have been happening since the beginning of the year, and now that it’s almost the end of the year, it’s still endless.

The Feng family, the Shen family, the Liang family... it's just that.

"Yes, this year has been really rough. Fortunately, we are doing well." Zi Rui was also scared.

"The Liang family is all gone?" Shen Chuliu asked.

"He left. He said he only asked his youngest son to see the third wife. I guess he was also annoyed." Zi Rui said.

"Well, forget it, please take care of Shen Biyu. Don't let anyone kill you by mistake. Don't let anything happen. I'm scared." Shen Chuliu sighed: "But at least you can spend the New Year in peace."

"Master, don't worry, she will be fine as long as you are here. However, the brocade has been severely damaged by the work, slave... slave, can you help her?" Zi Rui asked.

"I remember she is good at embroidery? She should be transferred to the Department of Services and make a living relying on her skills." Shen Chuliu said.
