Gu Zhen was a little confused when she heard this. She unconsciously told herself that Imperial Concubine Ye Bing was a liar and that she had no reason not to cheat her.
But after careful consideration, Yun Fenghuang’s words seem to make sense
The most important thing is that the experience just now dealt a huge blow to Gu Zhen.
She had looked at Yun Fenghuang in the past, and although she also thought that Concubine Wei Yin was very powerful, she looked down on her like a noble lady from a high family looking down at a girl from a poor family.
I feel that no matter how much Concubine Min cares about and how eloquent she is, in the final analysis, the slickness and cunning in the market are not on the surface.
But a moment ago, she was forced by Chunjia's few words to think of nothing but confessing. She was filled with resentment and thought that Fu Yunfenghuang had set her up. After Concubine Wei Ying came, she also said the same few words, and not only did she get rid of her completely , and together they helped Zhonggong escape calmly!
Gu Zhenruming seemed a little autistic.
She even gave up on herself and thought, please don't do anything at all.
Anyway, Chunjia promised to ensure that his legitimate son would succeed to the throne.
So don’t worry about taking precautions for a rainy day, or phoenix seal... just spend the confinement period behind closed doors, without asking whether the outside world is right or wrong, and wait until Chunjia is old and frail, and find a way to support his legitimate son to ascend the throne, and enjoy his own life. If possible, she will become the Queen Mother!
That doesn't mean she doesn't work hard, or the gap between her and Yun Fenghuang is too big!
If he wanted to win, besides relying on Chunjia, Gu Zhen couldn't think of anything else.
And since Chunjia is reliable, why does she need to worry so much about Yuandongtiao
If Chunjia is unreliable, will her efforts be of any use
"..." Gu Zhen's face was expressionless, thinking about whether to drive the concubine out now. He continued to complain that he was sick, and he would never see anyone again!
Seeing that she was silent, Yun Fenghuang narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "If the queen doesn't trust me, then I don't dare to ask for the trust of the queen. For the sake of the overall situation, please go to the queen." Don’t ever betray me again. After all, I am just for everyone’s benefit, right?”
Gu Zhen took a deep breath and said coldly: "I said Yue Mingming that I would incite me to acupuncture Yuan Kedong's leg, but privately I prepared a gift list to escape. I dare you to let me believe me?"
"Have I betrayed me?" Yun Fenghuang asked, "Did I have an affair with someone secretly? But is that because the queen doesn't trust me? Facts have proved that what I did was wrong. I beg you, if I do that, your Majesty will definitely conclude tomorrow that we have conspired to target our loving mother, the Queen Mother! What will happen to us then? If I do that, does it mean that I am not guilty of myself? Isn’t it true? Do you want to give your Majesty the full details? If not, I ask you to confess to your Majesty what you asked for just now? How will you face your loving mother, the Empress Dowager, in the future?"
… I always feel that something is good, but it also seems to make sense
Gu Zhen was confused for a moment, thought about it, and then said angrily: "I just said, did the Empress Dowager direct and act on her own? How did the Empress Dowager know about it?! Could it be that I was tipped off?"
"You are very unclear about the relationship between my concubine and my loving mother, the Empress Dowager?" Yun Fenghuang frowned and said, "Please tell me, what is the most important thing in the palace for her to be able to behave herself? If she is the empress, how can she not be considered a concubine? I am a concubine. I have given you some advice and plans to control her, so why do you want to inform me? Do you think that by doing this, the empress dowager will be able to turn the war with me into a sweetheart?! I think it is not the rumor that was leaked by your concubine, right?"
She raked it back confidently, "It's not once or twice that the people in front of you are unreliable! It's not my concubine, or your compassionate heart, there are few people in Didong who dare to act recklessly."
"..." Gu Zhen was very suspicious for a moment. He wondered whether he was incompetent in running the palace, and whether the person under his legs had been bribed
Seeing that she was silent, Yun Fenghuang took advantage of the victory and pursued him: "I don't deny that I'm talking about your Majesty. I know your Majesty has a good temperament, but you have to see when and what happens! You really want to be gentle about that kind of thing, then But how can it be done? I won’t dare to say anything if the queen has any inquiries in the future. Otherwise, I will be betrayed at every turn, and even if I have some legs, how can I bear it? "
Gu Zhen actually felt a little guilty after what she said.
Do you think you are too wicked
The imperial concubine is indeed not a good thing, but she does have a good deal with the Empress Dowager Yuan. Maybe she didn't mean it that time, so she just kept it out of habit, and it turned out that she helped herself. Then...
She quickly bit the tip of her tongue and forced herself to wake up, so that she could not be deceived by Concubine Yin without realizing it.
After Yun Fenghuang left that month, Gu Zhen contacted her parents' family dejectedly.
Mr. Gu was speechless after knowing what had happened. Even as cunning as he was, he had to admit that the level of his granddaughter Gong Dou was too terrible to look at.
That trip was not going to end well if the imperial concubine stepped in to smooth things over.
"Even if you pull the head of the servant, there will definitely be no discussion about our family outside." The old man sighed, "Since all the concubines have been given the ladder, if you don't want to do anything, just push it and say no. When unrelated people heard the Empress asking about Yuan Ke, they wondered if they wanted to do something good for Yuan Ke. Do they think they wanted to deal with Yuan Ke, and that led to the Yuan Ke family being ruined? Even Bhidong would admit it. After all, Don't you think Bidong can't bear to let his loving mother, the Queen Mother, know the truth? His children are good at everything, so he's too honest!"
It's the kind of person that even the imperial concubine has given an outline and doesn't know how to polish.
There was nothing he could do, after all, it was common knowledge that no one would succeed the Gu family.
After receiving the message, Gu Zhen felt like he was struck by lightning again, and he roared in his heart: Why didn't I expect this? !
She really didn't have the strength to cry anymore.
The queen was immersed in the shock and was extremely frustrated. At that time, the concubine Shu and the concubine came together to report something. If the three princesses accidentally fell into the water while playing in the imperial garden, if the concubine Gao had not jumped east in time and killed the three princesses, After being rescued, I was afraid that the third princess had already... Concubine De was crying in front of the queen: "Ever since the eleventh prince left, I have as much flesh and blood as the third princess!" If not, she also has someone who is both good and bad, and I will not be able to survive if I reject the plan... I am very grateful to Mrs. Gao for my concubine, and I beg your empress to give me a favor in return! "
Gu Zhen was also surprised when he heard this. Although Concubine De was a concubine and relied on the support of the concubine, so she had never taken her seriously, but the empress did not treat the heirs, especially her children. The emperor's heirs had good intentions despite their conflicts.
Especially the women of Sanhuang are shy and quiet, rarely get into trouble, and they look ruthless.
The queen who has no daughter has always had a good impression on her.
Furthermore, the death of the eleventh prince was indeed pitiable. At this moment, he asked a few questions about the situation of the third prince, but he also agreed to praise Gao.
Afterwards, Concubine Shu and Concubine De struck while the iron was hot and begged to confer Gao's name as Jieyu.
"Then there are too many supporters, right?" Gu Zhen was startled, and felt that it seemed a bit promising, so he said, "Also, does the noble concubine know whether it is a big deal for a concubine to be named a concubine?"
"My dear, you know that the imperial concubine has always doted on me very much." Concubine De choked up and said, "I didn't have time to tell the imperial concubine about that matter, but I am sure that I will not do anything wrong. After all, it was my fault that he did that. For me, Jieyu is nothing. This move cannot make up for my gratitude. I plan to take some things from my private treasury and give them to her as a reward!"
Gu Zhen was secretly relieved when he heard that the imperial concubine didn't know much about it.
When she thought about it, there were probably traps involved in the imperial concubine's menstruation. Even if there were no traps, it would be safe anyway.
Since the imperial concubine doesn't know much about this, then... who knows if she is lying to her or not. In fact, the imperial concubine already knows
After all, the queen didn't believe Concubine De, so she asked someone to take her east to freshen up on the pretext that her makeup was smudged, and she asked Concubine Shu to inquire about her condition.
Concubine Shu hesitated for a while, and then said in an evasive tone: "It's hard to say about the other concubines, but you know, Concubine De is as ruthless as a treasure if she only has the flesh and blood of the three emperors."
"... Then let me tell you, what about Jieyu's matter?" The queen pondered, "Everyone is discerning, and I won't talk in circles. So if Gao is not a member of this palace, how can the noble concubine agree? Even if the concubine De is very pity My daughter, please always consider the future of yourself and your daughter, will you do something that may not be approved by your concubine?"
Concubine Shu said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, although the Imperial Concubine is overbearing, she is always good at wronging her own people. How can I have a bright moon if Concubine De asks me to be supported by the Imperial Concubine?"
It's sad to say that Cui Lianye became an old man who entered the palace during the emperor's wedding, and he became a concubine when he was first named.
So how many years did it take from Concubine Xin to Concubine Shu
There were many ups and downs in the middle.
And what about Wei Hengyan? Just because she hugged the wrong Yun Fenghuang's thigh, she was promoted to the Imperial Concubine just a few days after entering the palace. She even surpassed an old man like Cui Lianye and became the assistant governor of the Sixth Palace!
From Concubine Shu's point of view, no matter how many others Yun Fenghuang has, it's not wrong to make mistakes for herself.
As for the queen, she is not like her confidant Ping Xianyi.
... Of course, it's not because the queen has too much time to take care of herself, let alone support her confidants to share the power of the palace.
Gu Zhen thought for a moment, and finally said: "I know, this matter is serious, please allow me to think about it carefully."
After she said that, she sent Concubine Shu and Concubine De, and summoned her confidants to discuss it.
After thinking about it again and again, I thought that if the concubine knew about it, it would not have been the concubine's initiative. It might have something to do with Li Jieyu's happiness.
"Although both the Gao family and Li Jieyu are not related to the empress, they have always been at odds with each other." A confidant of the palace maids said in a low voice, "Li Jieyu took the lead in becoming the leader of Ye Yuan before, and Gao family was suppressed a lot. So much so that those of the Gao family The confinement period is very difficult. If Mingli Jieyu is unable to raise her child, she will live in seclusion. If the Gao family were to become a concubine at this moment, they would definitely seek revenge and go back."
The queen frowned and said, "It's okay to pinch them here and there, but we are not allowed to mess around with them!"
"Actually, the empress might as well accept this matter." The palace maid thought for a while and said, "In the final analysis, Li Jieyu's pregnancy was her most important request. For the empress, it does not matter. Gao and Li Jieyu was able to be favored by the empress at the beginning, so she was naturally outstanding. The empress might as well have approved this matter, so both of them disapproved of Jieyu. The difference was nothing more than the title ban, but it was barely enough to balance it. The empress suppressed them and did not allow them to do so. It would hurt both sides. When the time comes, Tian Jieyu respects Jieyu, and many people will pay the wrong price. After all, Gao is not stupid. She should know that the person she can rely on most in the palace is neither the emperor's favor nor the virtue. The kindness from my concubine’s side is none other than yours, my concubine’s.”
Although neither Li Jieyu nor Jing Jieyu had the opportunity that Yun Fenghuang had when he first entered the palace, it was easy for him to live there later.
But Gu Zhen is really not good at harem legs. If he wants to control Li Jieyu, who is like Gao, he has to arrange for them to restrain each other for safety.
Gu Zhen also understood his own weaknesses, thought about it again and again, and decided to agree.
Within two months, Gao was successfully promoted to Jieyu.
Not long after she was promoted to the throne, she took the opportunity to disguise herself and entered the Huanqing Palace. She knelt in front of Yun Fenghuang and expressed her desire to ask for allegiance.
Yun Fenghuang: "... ... ...?!"
