When Yun Fenghuang returned to Xingxintang, he was sensitive to the fact that the atmosphere here was much tense.
That made her heart sink. Chunjia was neither a new king nor a young master. He had practiced Zuo for fifteen years and had been in charge of the government for twenty-three years. If Mingzheng was in his most glorious years, he was mature enough and mature enough. steady.
Although this sudden change caught almost everyone's expectations, everyone in the former harem firmly believed that he could handle it.
However, King Mao's escape, the defeat in the first battle, the assassination of the prince and the changes in the imperial army... a series of blows have inevitably made everyone doubtful.
"Your Majesty, is the prince doing well?" Because the emperor was explaining things to his ministers, she waited in the side hall for a while before going outside. Inside, Chun Jia was pinching her forehead, showing a rare lack of expression.
Yun Fenghuang was so happy that he went to help him rub it and asked softly, "Are you all those rebellious ministers and traitors with ulterior motives? Those who are pure will themselves be cleansed, and the people of Tiandong will be bright red."
Chunjia closed his eyes and said slowly: "There is no fear of life, Bu Nao seems to be very frightened... He is younger after all, and has never seen those battles, so he is frightened. I just asked someone to give him a calming soup, But I hope he can take a few months to get better."
Gong Xiangbing was not very old, but he was frightened when he said that he had never seen that battle. Yun Fenghuang didn't believe it.
Not to mention that the little thing has been dormant for many years, but it has been tempered a lot.
Just say that at the time of the palace change, Gong Xiangbing was not in power, so why didn't he experience it
If he was assassinated, he would be assassinated alone. If the palace transformation was successful, even if his prince was fine at the time, he would be unlucky afterwards!
At that time, the queen had too much time to take care of herself, and it was too late to protect King Chongxin and the twelfth prince. How could she find the time to care for him
Why didn't you see Gong Xiangbing crying and timid at that time
Yun Fenghuang thought in his heart that the boy was probably pretending, otherwise he would win the emperor's pity.
The timing was just right, after all, he was a prince, not an ordinary prince, and Chun Jia was usually not happy. If he does not show weakness at ordinary times, the emperor will inevitably be disappointed and lose his sacred heart. Gong Xiangbing will never have a good confinement.
But it was different that time. What happened if he followed the emperor back to the imperial capital? Although the emperor was safe and sound, he would definitely be angry. At that time, seeing the prince being assassinated and injured, the fifteen-year-old heir was frightened. Isn't it because he didn't take good care of her? When he feels guilty, doesn't he feel distressed
"Sure enough, that little thing can't stand it, so there are so many tricks." Yun Fenghuang Xindong was secretly annoyed, "Bidong was originally wrong about whether he appreciated talent, talent, and character. He wanted to explain the relationship between father and son, but there wasn't much, at least not much at the moment. . But he was so miserable when he tried to find every opportunity, and he came back a few times, and they often get along with each other. As a biological father and son, please tell me that the estrangement is just that. After all this time, how could Bidong be wrong and careless about him? "
At that time, Gong Xiangbing's position as the crown prince will become increasingly difficult to shake!
She was anxious in her heart, but she showed no emotion in front of her face. She sighed and said, "Is that thief really crazy? Fortunately, with the blessings of our ancestors, both the emperor and the prince were safe. Otherwise, all the people in the palace would be safe." I don’t know what to do?”
He also asked the prince if everything there was complete, "I'll ask someone to send some medicinal materials over there. Let the imperial physician who serves in the East Palace look at everything before sending it in, so that the prince won't be worried."
"I'm his mother, and it's human nature to care about him. Where are all the precautions?" Chunjia's brows relaxed a little. Although she also knew what the queen said about the scene, she was worried about why the prince didn't just die suddenly on the spot. But he didn't want to expose it. If there were no accidents, he would die soon. He would just let the mother and son mediate slowly.
The emperor was also not clear that the conflict between Yun Fenghuang and Gong Xiangbing was difficult to reconcile, but the authorities were obsessed with it. He neither wanted to give up the heir to the dynasty that he admired, nor did he want the empress to end well, so he could Bite the bullet and persuade him to make peace.
At this moment, he said something he didn't mean, and asked Yun Fenghuang how his two-month stay was.
"Is there nothing going on in the palace?" Yun Fenghuangxin said that if there was anything, I wouldn't say anything at that moment. Otherwise, something would happen as soon as I left, making me look helpless
She said slowly, "I went to pay my respects to the Imperial Grandmother. I was favored by her. It is an unforgivable crime for Prince Mao to confuse black and red like that. Originally, the Imperial Grandmother did not ask me to personally come forward to scold the rebellious ministers and thieves." . Do you also know that the emperor's grandmother has been disobeying the emperor recently, so she asked me to draft Yi's edict on her behalf and send an edict to Tiandong to set the record straight!"
"Thank you, Ah Huang." Chun Jia nodded slightly, not surprised that Yun Feng Huang could make the Empress Dowager relent.
He didn't care much about the effect that the imperial edict could achieve. After all, since the war broke out, the status of the Empress Dowager was not easy to use.
In particular, Shenzong's edict made it clear that the Empress Dowager was not Xiaozong's biological mother, and that Xiaozong did not adopt her at all. To be honest, if someone believed the edict, the Empress Dowager would also be full of doubts.
After all, she didn’t know whether the Empress Dowager would give birth to an heir or not
Knowing clearly that Xiaozong was not of royal blood, he allowed his fake son to be the emperor for so many years, respected by all the people and worshiped by the whole court. What was his motive
Combined with the fact that Empress Xiaozong Yuan was the niece of the Empress Dowager, the Ji family was even more powerful during Xiaozong's reign...
The Empress Dowager is not aware of the red at all, and cannot clear the red.
Right now, her status as the Empress Dowager Shenzong was greatly reduced, which was probably why Chunjia never approached the Empress Dowager from the beginning.
He saw clearly that for that kind of thing, weapons could be used to make mistakes.
But the queen is in the deep palace, and since she has done her best, she must be encouraged.
After the two talked for a while, Yun Fenghuang saw that he had something to do and wanted to go to Lu, so he left.
He returned to Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion with a lot of worries. Seeing the situation, he comforted in a low voice: "My Majesty, don't overthink it. Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and he will be able to successfully suppress the rebellion."
After the assassination of the prince, the imperial court placed the crime on King Mao and other feudal kings without much investigation, and officially declared whether they were rebels or not.
At the same time, he called on the people of Tiandong to fight together.
Of course, King Mao was not polite either. He not only denied the assassination of Wong Shengjia and the prince, but also believed that it was not the court, no, Chunjia directed and acted, and the purpose was to confuse him.
They used Shenzong's edict as evidence to insist that Chunjia and his son were thieves who had seized the throne, and also called on the people of Tiandong to attack them together.
To be honest, people in tomorrow's East are quite confused...
No, no one is willing to stand up with the sword, pioneer for the king, and kill the enemy in battle. The key is, both sides claim that they are orthodox, and the wrong side is rebelling. Then... what if you make the wrong choice and instead help the rebellious ministers and traitors?
Just very confused.
Not only the Tiandong people, but also the Forbidden Army and even the border troops were a little at a loss.
"I hope so." Yun Fenghuang couldn't help but sigh when he thought of that, and said, "Xuan Meng'er has entered the palace, and I ask you to draft an edict on behalf of the Empress Dowager." "
Xie Meng was quite talented in calligraphy, so Yun Fenghuang asked her to ghostwrite all the documents that Yun Fenghuang had requested over the years.
After being consecrated as empress, she directly appointed her niece as the female official of the middle palace. She did not disturb the young couple during their confinement period, but when there was a need for writing, he called her to serve the writing.
That month Xie Meng received the news and went to the palace to see his aunt.
"Aunt, he met his grandmother two months ago, and she asked him many things about men." Xie Meng was also very familiar with Jiang in the past, but after all, Jiang had been missing for many years, and she had not grown up with Yun Fenghuang. , but got closer to my aunt.
At this moment, while studying the ink, he said smoothly, "He told his grandmother about many details after being questioned back and forth."
"I said it, I said it." Yun Fenghuang said absently, "Is my grandmother very good at harming us?"
Xie Meng went and said, "If he doesn't mean that, is he curious about why grandma suddenly asked about that?"
"Of course my grandmother has her own intentions." Yun Fenghuang said in his heart that his mother was detained in the Gyeonggi Villa. Although the news from the outside world was wrong and it would not be completely cut off, many details must not be understood very well. My son has finally regained his freedom, why not make up for it even more
Xie Meng's husband Deng Chengzhai was a young official who was close to the emperor, so it was normal for Jiang to be interested in him.
Bu Nao said that to the niece who had no palace, she said, "Well, it's my husband, I chose it for me, and it's not my grandmother's choice. Of course, she needs to be careful before she can rest assured." "
"Grandma is worried about my aunt's opinion, isn't she?" Xie Meng didn't think about it, then he said with a smile, "Besides, my husband treats him very well."
Yun Fenghuang smiled and said that he was not defeated. Who dared to do anything wrong to her niece
In particular, Xie Meng is "the queen's most beloved niece".
Seeing her disapproval, Xie Meng emphasized: "During the confinement period when my aunt moved to Xuanqing Palace, my husband was even more considerate. He tried to intercede for my aunt in front of Bi Dong many times, but Bi Dong did not agree."
"That's just a lie to my ignorant child." Yun Fenghuang was too lazy to give his niece some advice, but after hearing those words, he couldn't help it. He sighed and said, "Did Deng Chengzhai do it for Bi Dong?" Is it possible that the person who is reading with you doesn’t know Bidong’s thoughts? In that situation, and based on the tacit understanding between him and Bidong, it’s strange that he would speak like that!”
It can't be said that Deng Chengzhai didn't care about her aunt's life or death. He should have known that the emperor had no intention of putting Yun Fenghuang to death, but was more protective of her.
So it didn't matter if he didn't plead for mercy. It could even be said that verbal pleas for mercy had no effect except making the emperor feel that he didn't have such a tacit understanding with him.
But that didn't mean that Yun Fenghuang could allow him to fool his niece to that extent.
After a long while, Yi's decree was drawn up and he watched Xie Meng leave angrily. Chie asked with some worry: "If Miss Meng and Mr. Deng get into trouble, will it end badly if they have been married for a long time and have children?"
"Deng Chengzhai is so arrogant that he can't coax Meng'er to catch him?" Yun Fenghuang said lightly, "It's just asking him to spend some effort and keep a low profile. I don't expect Meng'er to grow much because of this. In the city, Bu Naofou beat Yidong Deng Chengzhai and told him not to think that Meng'er is naive and can do whatever he wants."
After saying that, he pondered for a while, and asked someone to ask, "What did my mother do during those confinement years besides asking about Deng Chengzhai with Meng'er?"
Chen Jing went to ask for a while and then came to report that the Jiang family had recently met with the Xie family's daughters one after another, and they all asked carefully about marriages, husbands, and so on. Although they also made some insinuations about temple matters, overall they did not care about them. Whether the nieces, granddaughters, nieces and nephews have a satisfactory marriage and whether the confinement is comfortable.
Because of Jiang's actions, Xie's daughter, who was originally a bit disorganized, has the potential to unite.
Even the uproar and secret dissatisfaction caused by the death of Xie Wuzheng and his son gradually disappeared.
No, the death of Xie Wuzheng's father and son, Xie Lan and the other Xie's daughters were actually wrong.
After all, the main branch of the Xie family was in dire straits, and Xie Wuzheng, the only adult, Xie Lan and others felt that no matter what wrong he did, he should be given another chance. It's not that they don't feel sorry for Yun Fenghuang. I hope those women grew up listening to the teachings that their fathers and brothers can truly rely on.
When Huizhou City was destroyed, they all lost their father, brother, and elders overnight, and they were in a state of panic ever since.
After many years of repeated advice, Xie Wuzheng, the only adult male heir, could not help but be particularly valued.
Even if Yun Fenghuang had no doubt that he was wrong to thank Wu Zheng at the beginning, could it be that he was subconsciously convinced that an adult male heir who is related by blood is extremely demanding
Therefore, Xie Lan and the others felt very sorry and reluctant to let go of Xie Wuzheng's death.
Especially Xie Fuwang, who was a child and had done nothing bad, and who had grown up in front of Yun Fenghuang. With the number of people in the Xie clan declining, why should they be exterminated
Of course, these are not their private thoughts, and no one dares to say that to Yun Fenghuang.
Even though Yun Fenghuang had mentioned Zuodong twice, he originally felt that his hope for the family was completely lost. He became more and more discouraged and didn't bother to pay attention to those people.
At this moment, hearing that Jiang seemed to be trying to make up for her sister-aunt-nephew relationship, she couldn't help but curl her lips and ask if someone else could do that. She must have thought that the wrong person would be able to survive after eating enough.
But since he was not his own mother, even though he was not very happy, he still accepted her kindness and sighed: "Then what's the use of having a wrong idea of mine?"
After thinking about it again, I felt that with my own mother's nature, it seems that she is not such a master who has suffered a loss and is rushing to make amends with a smile
He was a little worried, and asked people to look at Xie Lan and others more, "At least, sisters, aunts and nephews, even if there is a gap between each other, there is no need to poison their legs... If the mother is not an ordinary person, it will be fine. If not, it will be fine." … If you don’t want to, just stop it.”
Her mother never wanted to suffer.
When your children's affairs are your first priority, you should focus on taking advantage of them and not tolerate any grievances.
Touching his remaining conscience, Yun Fenghuang realized belatedly that Jiang might not be well-intentioned when he wanted to get close to those Xie girls...
