Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 1278: The man behind the scenes

Views:

The Qing man was startled for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, maybe you just said it casually. After all, the Queen Mother can't do anything to us now. Saying other things now is just humiliating yourself. It's better to Talking about something ambiguous and trying to be mysterious?"

"...Maybe." Yun Fenghuang was noncommittal and suddenly said, "Who do you think is the one who is deliberately trying to kill me this time?"

"Those who were impeached in the previous dynasty, not even one of them..." Qingren was interrupted before he could finish his words: "It's up to you to say, but it's not just a day or two that these people have had grudges with me, what should I do so early?" If you don’t activate it, you won’t activate it later, but at this time?”

The attendants looked at each other, and Chie whispered: "Your Majesty, is it because of the appointment of the crown prince? Since the third prince was appointed as the Eastern Palace, although the former and the harem did not dare to say anything at the time, there were many discussions in private, and people's hearts were Under the float…”

Yun Fenghuang said: "Gong Xiangbing's son can be crowned a prince. Those people in the former palace and harem who resented me are naturally overjoyed... You don't need to say this. But think about it carefully, is there anyone or something? , you immediately made a fuss in front of me? Or, you celebrated in public and felt that I was going to be doomed?"

"This..." After thinking for a while, everyone shook their heads.

After all, at the same time that Gong Xiang Bing was able to establish the crown prince, Yun Fenghuang also received the title of crown prince first.

She did not come to the throne by air. She had been in charge of the palace for many years before she officially became the third queen of the Chunjia Dynasty.

So far, the dynasty has said that there are three queens, but in fact, the real mothers in charge of the six palaces are Empress Yuan and Yun Fenghuang.

Gu Zhen in the middle is just pretending to be a successor.

In terms of power and favor, no one can compare with Empress Yuan and Yun Fenghuang.

Although her reign was not short, during these years, whenever anything happened in the harem before her, she always looked at Yun Fenghuang's face, not really caring about Gu Zhen's thoughts.

Under such circumstances, although many people found it incredible that Gong Xiang Bing became the crown prince, and they also felt that the new emperor's life would be difficult, but unless someone's head was full of water, who would dare to mock Yun Fenghuang rashly

There were even a few blind people who wanted to celebrate, but they were stopped by other sober people.

The main thing is that Yun Fenghuang is not the kind of master who only punishes the first culprit. He has favored the Sixth Palace for many years, and all his descendants are well versed in fighting for favor, whether consciously or not. It can be said that Chunjia deducts the time and energy other than managing state affairs. , eighty-nine times out of ten, they are all in the body of their mother and son.

If Chunjia was already in his seventies or eighty, or if his time was running out, these people could relax more, but Chunjia was still in his prime, and the third prince had just gotten married.

Anyone who has some experience in the city will not think that the structure of the country will be stable in the future. How can he dare to show his face to Yun Fenghuang now

When the attendants thought of this, their expressions changed slightly: "Does your Majesty think...?"

"They are too impatient." Yun Fenghuang said lightly, "I have been operating in the harem for many years, and I have spent a lot of time and effort to maintain my favor. Even if His Majesty established the Duke Xiangbing for the sake of the country, he also gave me the post in advance. Appease. Regarding this point, anyone with a discerning eye should know clearly that even if the evidence is conclusive, I have indeed committed many crimes and crimes, but Your Majesty cannot bear to end my life."

"And I am the kind of person who will honestly admit that he is unlucky after being criticized?"

Not only does she not know how to do it, she will even take the gamble even harder.

"Let's talk about Gong Xiangbing." She pondered for a while and continued, "Gong Xiangbing is young, but he can be favored by His Majesty. His qualifications and temperament are the best choices. Even if I have changed since he took charge of the East Palace, How could he find trouble? When has he ever messed up? This kid is very calm. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the biggest enemy of me and the children. He is not in a hurry. How can others be more anxious than him? "

Chie whispered: "Is it Webster? But they don't seem to have the ability?"

Yun Fenghuang said calmly: "Of course the Wei family will be anxious. After all, their princess is almost useless. But Wei family is not just a daughter. I want to tell you in private that your majesty and the prince, father and son, It doesn't matter how much conscience they have, but when it doesn't hinder them, they are still willing to speak a little truth. Wei Xiyan has no enmity with me, but since the wedding, I have been trying to get rid of him in different ways. This time The loss of fertility has nothing to do with this palace. The Wei family has been greatly wronged both emotionally and rationally. Therefore, if their next response does not anger the Tian family father and son, His Majesty will allow them to send their daughter to the East Palace again. Serve the prince.”

"When the time comes to give birth to an heir, it will be recorded in the name of the Crown Princess."

"If there are any shortcomings in the journey of the Crown Princess, then we will choose a successor from Wei."

"So Wei Xiyan's experience and situation may be a catastrophe for herself, and it is urgent. But for the whole Wei family, it can only be said that they are still at a level where they dare not dare to speak out. It is far from enough for them to risk provocation. This palace’s situation!”

Anyway, as long as the emperor's grandson is born from a daughter of Webster, whether it is Wei Xiyan or not, it actually has little impact on the whole Webster.

So why should they take risks when they can get something by pretending to be nice and pitiful

"The original arrangement for people to attack Shanyuan Temple was just a precaution." Yun Fenghuang suddenly sneered, "I didn't expect that it was an accidental attack!"

The people on the left and right were stunned for a moment, and when they realized it, they were all shocked: "Is it the Empress Dowager who is targeting us?! But, why?"

This is really a bit confusing: there is no grudge between the Empress Dowager and Yun Fenghuang. The key point is that if the Empress Dowager wants to complain, she should first target Chunjia

The late regent should be next. Even if the regent and his wife are gone, then according to common sense, the regent's two sons should be next.

Well, the Empress Dowager watched Gong Xiangxiao grow up, and she might be a little reluctant to let him go. Isn’t there another Gong Xiangzhen

In addition, when the Ji family was destroyed, brothers Zheng Fengfeng contributed a lot. Isn't this hatred ranking high enough

Even though the Empress Dowager loves Princess Yun'an, it's not like Princess Yun'an can't remarry!

In addition to these few, the Yin family, the Meng family, the Luo family, and the Ouyang family all divided up countless industries after the overthrow of the Ji family... Can these empresses and queens forget

As for Yun Fenghuang, no matter how deep the grudge he had with the Ji family was, limited by his status at the time and the background of his natal family, he only got a small advantage.

The most important thing is: "Mother, Ji Qin and the others have been lurking in front of Xie Wuzheng so that they can use you to hide from His Majesty's eyes and ears. The Empress Dowager is stirring up everything now, lest the remaining members of the Ji family are not driven away and killed. ?"

As for what Ji Qin had hinted before, they were not on the same side as the Empress Dowager, and were even enemies. Master and servant Yun Fenghuang didn't take it seriously.

No matter how hard it is to write two characters of "Ji" in one stroke, even if there are some disagreements, you are still more friendly than outsiders. How can it be so troubled

"Have you all forgotten that Gong Xiangbing is a prince of the Ji family?" Yun Fenghuang glanced around and said with a smile, "What? Just because the Empress Dowager has not taken care of them all these years, you have acquiesced. Doesn’t it have anything to do with the Queen Mother?”

The attendants were suddenly reminded, and their expressions changed slightly.

He then heard Yun Fenghuang say: "The Empress Dowager is already old. The Prince can wait, the Meng family and others can also wait, and I can also wait, but she cannot wait much longer. Although in Shanyuan Temple Before the incident, I didn't hear that there was anything wrong with her. But considering her age, her death now can be considered a happy birthday. If she were more tired and bedridden, even if she wanted to do something, she would be powerless... It's so easy She has waited until Gong Xiang is the chu, and if she doesn't hold on to her last breath and deceives me once, she will not be able to close her eyes!"

She sneered a few times as she said that. Although she found the culprit by mistake, her expression was still not relaxed. "It's just that I didn't think of her before. How could she expose her flaws? Shanyuan Temple...what is hidden there?" What kind of secret?"

And why did the palace man say that it had nothing to do with her and was not without benefit to her

benefit…

Yun Fenghuang's eyes flickered, and he quickly calculated his so-called benefits, but why couldn't he have anything to do with Shanyuan Temple

"But the empress has a clever plan, and now she has noticed the clues." Chie thought for a while and asked in a low voice, "If I report it to your majesty, then... can you make your majesty dislike the prince?"

If this is the case, then their Xuanqing Palace is in great danger.

"It's useless." However, Yun Fenghuang shook his head and said, "The son of Gong Xiangbing has nothing to do with the Empress Dowager these years, otherwise he would not be able to hide it from your Majesty's eyes and ears. Your Majesty will not use someone who is full of affection for the Ji family. Even the prince who has feelings for the Gongxiang family is the crown prince. In fact, the two brothers, the King of Song and the Crown Prince, have nothing wrong with their brains, and they cannot regard their maternal family as more important than their own."

After all, they were not favored by the royal family when they were growing up, and only the Gongxiang family recognized them as their own family.

Compared to the Ji family, they are still outsiders after all.

What's more, the Ji family has been overthrown for many years, but the Gongxiang family has been at the top of the world. How stupid must one be to recognize the Ji family but not the Gongxiang family

People always seek profit.

Therefore, Chun Jiaming knew that there were remnants of the Ji family around Gong Xiangbing, but he didn't care at all.

Not to mention that what he can give to his son must be more than Ji's.

The most important thing is that even if Gong Xiang Bing was partial to the Ji family before, once he becomes the prince, he will naturally change his mentality and approach and put the interests of the Gong Xiang family first.

Because when he became the crown prince, his interests and those of the Gongxiang family overlapped to a considerable extent.

Not to mention that Gong Xiangbing probably didn't know about the Empress Dowager's actions. Even if he knew, he would probably be more angry than happy.

It's not like he couldn't wait. The Empress Dowager had never given him any benefits or help over the years. Now that she tried to intervene and failed, Gong Xiangbing felt that it was too late for her to be too troublesome.

Not to mention grateful.

Therefore, Chunjia may have pretended to say a few words to the East Palace in order to calm the dispute, but it was impossible to shake the crown prince's status.

Chunjia was not confused. He appointed the prince himself unless he felt it was inappropriate.

Otherwise, just relying on others being stupid is not enough to make him think of easy storage.

This is not only true for the prince, but also for the concubines.

Yun Fenghuang was the beneficiary of his temperament in the past, but now that he saw Gong Xiangbing being treated in the same way, his mood suddenly became complicated.

After calming down, Yun Fenghuang said: "Since I can't do anything about this matter, I can't do anything about the prince either... Unless the prince is involved, but Gong Xiangbing is not stupid, he will never do this. Even if we find These credentials are innocuous, at most they will make him disgraced and have no real meaning."

"On the contrary, the Empress Dowager...ask more people to keep an eye on her."

He paused and then said, "Even though the Shanyuan Temple is burned to ashes, we still have people keep an eye on it to see if anyone with suspicious behavior is there."

She once again regretted that her family background was too low. At the time of Emperor Shizong and Shenzong, no one from the entire Xie family was in the imperial capital, let alone knowing the secrets behind those temples.

The current clues are not enough to deduce the detailed ins and outs.

but…

Yun Fenghuang hesitated again and again, but still ordered someone: "Go to Taichu Palace to report to His Majesty, and ask if Your Majesty will have time to come over later?"
