Chunjia rested in Huanhua Palace that day. Early the next month, when he went to court, Yun Fenghuang also got up. After dressing up, he summoned Chen Jing and told him to go to Beidi and keep an eye on Xie Wu. fight.
When Yun Fenghuang expressed his suspicions to the Qing people, Chen Jing was not around.
At this moment, he was shocked when he heard this: "Do you think that the consort is...?"
"I also hope that I have thought too much." Yun Fenghuang's face turned a little pale and he said softly, "But the matter is so big that I cannot allow myself to deceive myself! After all, if I have really underestimated my consort, I will If so, even if he is fifteen from now on..."
He glanced vaguely at the side hall where Jin Wang Ruming lived, "No one can say whether it will be confirmed or not by then!"
Chen Jing suddenly became solemn.
His master is a concubine, and if the concubine is deprived of power by Xie Wu, even if he becomes the queen mother, how powerful will his chief steward be
For example, Ming Qing Ci Palace also had a general manager, but how could it compare with Yan Yin
Moreover, as a foreign servant who has met Empress Yuan, he has also vaguely heard that the three generations of Phoenix Masters of the Ji family seem to be noble and extraordinary, and they all have the magnanimity and ability that a queen should have, but in fact, except for In addition to the Empress Dowager, everyone from the common man Ji Sheng to the Yuan Dynasty Empress Ji Lingzi was controlled by the family.
My own right to speak is very restricted.
Chen Jing has enjoyed many unscrupulous benefits from following the imperial concubine over the years. How can he tolerate Xie Wuzheng picking peaches
He accepted the order very solemnly and promised to handle the matter properly...
However, Yun Fenghuang was not so reassured by his guarantee and reminded: "Although the Xie family cannot compare with those high-ranking families in the Imperial Capital, in Huizhou, they are still local snakes who have been operating for many years. In-law relationships are intricate, and places have their own destiny in the world. Even if the Ruming family is in trouble and the main branches are in decline, after many generations of accumulation, there is still a certain foundation. Furthermore, as the royal son-in-law, the consort has a noble status. Not only the remaining members of the Xie family, can they have good relations with each other? My in-laws will definitely look down upon her! Therefore, I must not take it lightly!"
Seeing the imperial concubine's instructions, Chen Jing did not dare to neglect: "Don't worry, Madam, I will act with caution and will not be careless in the slightest!"
After saying that, he hesitated and then said in a low voice, "No, empress, if the consort is unreliable... then, what about the news that the consort usually reports to us?"
"I know." Yun Fenghuang sighed, "I will deal with it one by one. Judging from the current situation, even if the consort has evil intentions, he can't do without my support, and he will definitely not stab him at that time. This Palace Knife…”
She pondered for a while and then said, "Therefore, we must not leak the news to avoid changes! Furthermore... those suspicions against me may not deny that others are deliberately sowing discord, so that I can be suspicious of the consort and lose that in vain. A helping hand…”
After all, so far, although Xie Wuzheng cannot escape suspicion, there is no actual evidence to prove that he murdered his brother.
Counting the time, how long has it been since the death of the Xie family
Even if Xie Wuzheng was influenced by his mother, he didn't like his fourth wife, and he didn't feel weak when he tricked Xie Xiaoyu, but he couldn't do this to his own biological parents, biological nephew, and nephew.
To put it bluntly, does Xie Wuqiang have the courage? He doesn't have to ask for help from his blood relative Dongdu Leg. It has been shown directly that Yun Fenghuang is very willing to support him
After all, who doesn't know whether Concubine Min's most lacking thing in those two years is her own family.
Even though Xie Wuzheng didn't have as deep a relationship as Xie Xiaoyu and Yun Fenghuang, the imperial concubine was not the kind of mistress who would not be afraid to show favor to her brother. Is there no competition for one
Even if she has that selfishness, Ruming doesn't have the strength to be so willful.
Furthermore, considering his fault, the Gu family is not a wealthy family that has been around for many years. Even if there is no successor, the elders who head the family are not dead, so they should not be immediately regarded as a declining family.
Mrs. Gu missed the needles in Huaqing Palace and Yun Fenghuang several times. To be honest, if Yun Fenghuang's legs were a little short, she would not be able to swim in ten thousand, and Young Master Chunjia would be a little off, so her confinement would definitely not be as easy as it is now.
Therefore, Mrs. Gu deliberately acupuncture Xie Xiaoyu, so that the imperial concubine would suspect Xie Wuzheng, causing Xie's main bloodline to split, and even kill each other... It is not unreasonable.
She dismissed Chen Jing, thought for a moment, and then summoned people from the Qing Dynasty to discuss it: "I naturally hope that the prince-in-law will have no problems, but as soon as it becomes clear, even the emperor is suspicious of him, so we have to be on guard after all. Other things That’s all, he can’t figure it out even if it causes trouble. But the key is the series of contacts from Qi Jiulu, don’t let Bidong know!”
The Qing man looked solemn: "No, what the empress said! That's right... The empress also said that the consort may not have really harmed the 18th young master. If all this was not instigated by the Gu family, and the consort is innocent, if he realizes that the empress wronged him, Do you doubt it, just because you are afraid that something will come up in your heart?"
"I am Minghong." Yun Fenghuang said with a coldness flashing in his eyes, "In that case, Gu Ruming will put things to rest for Bidong's sake. But in our hearts, we must not be willing to get rid of the mistake and then quickly get rid of it." It’s based on your thoughts. Let’s just use Gu’s name to prevent Gu from taking advantage of us, and then we must destroy all traces of contact!”
"Empress, the key is not the Qi family." The Qing man pondered for a while and said, "That time, the Qi family head threatened you first, and the consort is not willing to alarm you."
She whispered, "Then the head of the Qi family can't keep him?"
"But how can we touch them now?" Yun Fenghuang shook his head, "Not to mention what we want to do to the head of the Qi family, we must go through the consort, otherwise there will be no suitable people. As for the family's deep roots in the North, I don't think so. It’s clear. The Qi family is not a family of orphans! If Luo Dong shows up at that time, the consequences will be disastrous!"
The Qing people doubted whether she had ever had feelings for Qi Jiulu, so they refused to touch the head of the Qi family.
Otherwise, according to the concubine's temper, Zheng Shangchu and his like were driven to death. How could one or two of them care about the mere head of the Qi family
But he didn't dare to say it, so he said tactfully: "If this is not the case, then Vice General Qi, can you personally say hello to me, to avoid a similar situation happening again?"
The only person who can control the head of the Qi family and the Qi family in the east is Qi Jiulu.
Although people in the Qing Dynasty also knew that Qi Jiulu had a deep love for Yun Fenghuang, but now and then, whether they were a serious unmarried couple and childhood sweethearts, she felt that Qi Jiulu was quite good.
Later, I learned that this man came to the Imperial Capital and even had a secret meeting with the imperial concubine. To be honest, I didn't like Qi Jiulu very much.
After all, that kind of behavior would bring huge risks and hidden dangers to the imperial concubine.
As the imperial concubine's mother's former servant and current confidant, the Qing people would certainly not consider Qi Jiulu's grievances, sorrow, and danger. Anyway, she felt that Ru Ming, the boy from the Qi family, could not help the imperial concubine. On the contrary, he would not put the imperial concubine in danger. , that would be very annoying.
So if Qiu Bubu is afraid of the imperial concubine, the Qing people really want to persuade Yun Fenghuang to kill them all, and kill Qi Jiulu together.
"Sure enough, no one is perfect." Her reason made her shut up, but she sighed secretly in her heart, "Even a smart person like my empress can sometimes be kind-hearted and weak-legged. But forget about being soft-hearted about ordinary trivial matters! Such big things , Your Majesty, you miss your old relationship so much, so it’s best to ask for peace and quiet in the future. If something goes wrong, what should you do?”
Yun Fenghuang didn't know what the Qing people were thinking. She didn't want to mislead the head of the Qi family, and she did want to save Qi Jiulu's face, but she wasn't actually worried that the father and son might be a trap. They would make more mistakes if they did more.
But he just wanted to erase all the evidence that the two parties were closely connected, so as not to be criticized for being frivolous in the future.
After arranging the matter, she had time to summon King Jin to her and asked her son what he was thinking when he was in front of the emperor: "Don't tell me that I missed you because I was hungry!" But my father, I know very well that I am wrong, so let me muddle through!"
The imperial concubine had a cold face, banged the table with her ruler, and shouted, "If I dare to speak out, I will teach you a lesson tomorrow!"
"...The child was...that time..." King Jin grimaced, looked at the ruler with fear and fear, and muttered, "The child felt...that the father seemed to be deliberately thinking about his father's identity. The child thought, his father's identity No one can dissuade you from being noble. What the mother and concubine said is enough for the father to listen. If not, just remind the father that the mother and concubine are lying down. Can he bully the mother and concubine when her jade body is in disobedience? Son!"
Yun Fenghuang raised the ruler without saying a word.
Without saying a word, the King of Jin stood up and sneaked under the table.
"I'll come out for me!" Yun Fenghuang was furious, rolling up his sleeves and shouting, "Don't think that I can't do anything to me if I hide in there!"
"Mother and concubine, I heard that I was so young that I got away from home. I am too young to bear your punishment." King Jin knelt on the ground, tried his best to crawl into the corner, and said loudly, "Please, concubine, don't you call me Big brother and the others are here to let you vent your anger on two things? Big brother and the others are so filial, they will definitely agree!"
Yun Fenghuang was so angry that he slammed the table and said to his neighbors: "Let's look at that bastard! King Qin and the others wronged him so much that he could actually say such things!"
The King of Jin had nothing to hide, so he curled up with his head in his arms and said with a curl of his lips: "What the mother-in-law said is right! It's just because the eldest brother and the others like my son and are very willing to be punished for my son, so I only want to be happy." Accept them to receive the punishment on your behalf. Otherwise, if the eldest brother and the others don't like the son at all, but they want to suffer for the son, wouldn't they also blame the mother and concubine for the son? Like now, the eldest brother and the others are willing to suffer for the son. I was beaten by you, so after the beating, wouldn’t it be good for everyone to be a loving family? Wouldn’t it be better for the mother and concubine to punish the sons and ministers so that the brothers become enemies? "
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Your Majesty, Prince Jin, is young and doesn't know how to keep your mouth shut." Seeing Yun Fenghuang's gloomy expression, he quickly advised, "My Majesty, please don't argue with your Majesty..."
He also urged the King of Jin to admit his mistake, "Look at how angry you are at your Majesty! You must apologize to your Majesty quickly!"
The King of Jin responded quickly: "Mom, please calm down. All the mistakes you made are not my fault! You must not be angry. Otherwise, what will I do in the future?"
"What should I do in the future? Is there anything I can do in the future!" Yun Fenghuang sneered, "Don't I have my big brother and the others to protect me?"
"Brother, please ask if they don't have mother and concubine here. They don't know how to live the confinement period for a long time. They are very protective of their children. How can they be so cowardly!" Who knew that King Jin said without thinking, "Brother, they are not reliable at all!"
Yun Fenghuang was shocked by the son's unwillingness: "I just said that my eldest brother and the others like me and are willing to take the punishment on my behalf!"
"No, that's right." King Jin muttered, "But what I don't know is that in my father's palace that day, the tenth brother and the eldest sister almost got into a fight. At that time, I felt that the eldest brother and the eldest sister were unreliable. I must rely on my mother and concubine to succeed!"
"..." Yun Fenghuang frowned, thought for a while, then softened his tone and said, "Oh? Why do I feel that way?"
