Luo Hanyi sullenly walked out of Xuanqing Palace, not caring about going back to Yanlan Palace, so he went directly to Chunwu Palace to complain to the Empress Dowager Yuan: "... Please forgive me for my incompetence, the Empress Dowager. I originally thought that your majesty has only the little prince so far." The two heirs of the princess should be taken seriously together, but there are so many civet cats in Xuanqing Palace, which is really worrying, so I went to remind the real concubine, but who knows that my sister... my sister... "
Concubine Xuan came from a well-known family, and even when she cried, she did it with restraint. Her tears fell quietly, her voice was only slightly choked, and she forced herself to continue, "My sister ignored my good intentions and couldn't help but find faults. In the end, I used my status as a tutor." Just talking, I... I really couldn't bear to hear her criticizing the Luo family tradition, so I had to leave in a hurry."
As she spoke, she knelt in an upright posture, with her back straight, and her demeanor was not lost at all. This shows that the daughter-in-law of a famous family has a magnanimous temperament. Even though she was unreasonably humiliated, she still did not lose her composure.
Empress Dowager Yuan admired this type of girl the most. She originally had the intention of suppressing Yun Fenghuang. Seeing this, she became more and more partial. She asked Zhan Liu to help her up in person, and sighed: "Good boy, You have been wronged. It’s true that the real concubine is your sister. Why are you still so ignorant? Don’t argue with her. The Ai family will send someone to tell her about this matter, and she must give you an explanation!"
"Your Majesty, in fact, the displeasure of Sister Zhenfei is nothing." Concubine Xuan said quickly, "After all, I have just entered the palace, and I am not familiar with Sister Zhenfei. Maybe there is something in my words and behavior that makes my sister unhappy but she is not aware of it. The top priority is , or the safety of the emperor's heirs. Although Sister Zhenfei has specially designated a yard to keep civet cats in captivity, civet cats have always been good at flying over walls and walls, so it is not impossible to escape. "
"Although this kind of thing has never happened before, don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality."
Queen Mother Yuan pondered for a while, nodded and said: "You are right."
He also said that she was virtuous, "The true concubine's temper is well known to the Ai family. Even you were so angry that she ran over to report it. It can be seen that what she said must be very unpleasant. In this way, you can not care about her and care about the emperor's heir. It can be seen that There is no need to question Luo’s family tradition.”
Concubine Xuan quickly knelt down to thank her: "Thank you, the Queen Mother, for your understanding!"
In this way, even if the true concubine's words spread and are endorsed by her loving mother, the Empress Dowager, others cannot say that Luo's tutoring is bad.
And since Empress Dowager Yuan said so, she would definitely not allow Xuanqing Palace to keep those civet cats in captivity... Luo Hanyi knew that the true concubine entered the palace a year earlier, had a relationship with Chunjia, and had a certain foundation in the palace. , and she has a pair of children under her knees. It is not easy to shake the status of such a concubine.
She was not in a hurry to target the true concubine herself. She first let the Sixth Palace know about the civet cat being dealt with. The true concubine no longer had the final say in this palace. She also needed to consider whether she could disobey and offend the concubine. .
... But what Concubine Xuan didn't know was that Yun Fenghuang had arrived at Taichu Palace at this moment, and was dragging Chun Jia to feel wronged: "I am only a few months older than that Luo family, but in her eyes, I am already old and yellow." !”
Chunjia coaxed: "What are you listening to her talking about? I see that you are standing with her, so you should call her sister."
Yun Fenghuang suddenly changed his expression, threw off his sleeves, and said angrily: "I know His Majesty wants that Luo to step on my head! At this moment, she deliberately called me to say that I am old and shabby. Sister, I really wish I could suppress this concubine as soon as possible so that I can legitimately let her be my sister!"
"Don't you know who I am partial to?" Chunjia stretched out his arms and pulled her onto his lap, coaxing, "I mean, although she is a few months younger than you, she looks older than you. Woolen cloth."
Yun Fenghuang turned his head to the side without looking at him, and hummed: "Your Majesty said this in front of me. When you go back to Xinli Palace, you may help Concubine Xuan scold me again."
Chunjia smiled and scolded: "Do you think I am as glib as you?"
Then he said, "Anyway, haven't you always disliked those civet cats? Just take advantage of this time to pass away..."
Before she could finish her words, she was pinched by Yun Fenghuang. The real concubine said angrily: "I don't like those civet cats very much. After all, it's only been a year since Miaocai happened, and my memory is not that bad. But why should I do this? Are you listening to Concubine Xuan? The little prince and the princess are all in the Huanqing Palace, and I will deal with those civet cats sooner or later—is it Concubine Xuan’s turn to give advice?"
"Your Majesty, you still don't know what Concubine Xuan just said about me? She said that I have to serve you, take care of the emperor's heirs, and take care of palace affairs. When you have free time, you have to educate a strong son. Where can you be busy?"
"My concubine is strange. Do all the mistresses of the Luo family only do one thing? Who is the head mistress of the family? She is not raising her children while supporting her parents-in-law, and at the same time being a good wife to her husband. While taking care of the family business, when I have free time, I have to mediate the quarrels among the concubines and deal with favors... I asked her, have you ever heard that the mistress of the Luo family is not in good health? "
"In the end, she actually walked away angrily - as the saying goes, there is no good person under the reputation. I don't believe that the Luo family tradition is so rude. It can be seen that Concubine Xuan despises me and is deliberately disrespectful to me!"
Chunjia understood her nature, and after hearing these words, she knew that the truth of the matter was definitely not what she said. Most likely, she made Luo Hanyi so angry that she couldn't stay any longer, so she could only walk away.
But if he exposes it, the real concubine will definitely make endless troubles, suspecting that he doesn't like her anymore and prefers Luo Hanyi... Thinking about the consequences, he said vaguely: "Concubine Xuan's move is really unreasonable. I think she just entered the palace and is ignorant, so don’t argue with her..."
Then before he finished speaking, Yun Fenghuang burst into tears.
Chunjia didn't notice it at first, and was still saying, "Concubine Xuan is not good. Concubine Xuan is wrong. Concubine Xuan has made you feel wronged, my beloved concubine." "But" you should be tolerant and forgive her. Then she felt something was wrong and looked down. , Yun Fenghuang's tears wetted his sleeves, and he said in panic: "What are you...what's going on? I'm still facing you!"
"I just remembered that when I first entered the palace last year, I did something wrong because of my youth and ignorance, and this is how your majesty excused me." Yun Fenghuang wiped his tears and choked up, "Although your majesty said at that time It's not good for my body, but I feel very stable physically and mentally, because I know that even if I am ignorant and not smart enough, with His Majesty here, I will definitely not let me be punished seriously. Now I hear His Majesty also justifying Concubine Xuan in this way... "
She did not continue speaking, but burst into tears.
Chunjia was speechless for a while, and after a while, she said awkwardly: "Ahem... I just think... this is not a big deal..."
Anyway, his true concubine definitely didn't suffer, so he couldn't continue to add insult to injury to Luo Hanyi, right
That wouldn't be easy to explain to Luo.
Although Luo Hanyi doesn't have a biological father who chases the emperor for justice after hearing that his daughter has been wronged, he still has fathers and brothers!
Yun Fenghuang said quietly: "Your Majesty cares about the world, and this matter is of course not worth mentioning in your eyes. But I only have you, and only the Xuanqing Palace you gave me to live in, so anyone who steps into Xuanqing Palace will not be threatened. Anyone who sees my status in your mind is a big deal to me."
"..." Chunjia was silent for a long time this time. He wiped her face with a sigh and whispered, "After all, those civet cats were raised by the Queen Mother under the command of the Queen Mother. However, there are emperor heirs in the Xuanqing Palace, so it is indeed not suitable to continue. Keep raising them. Otherwise, send them to Yanlan Palace first and let Concubine Xuan take care of them. After sending someone to the palace to ask for instructions from the Queen Mother, the Empress Dowager will decide how to deal with them."
This doesn't seem to punish anyone, but compared to Luo Hanyi's previous plan, it is obvious that he still favors Yun Fenghuang.
"But it is up to Your Majesty to make the decision." Yun Fenghuang said lightly, a little wistfully, "I have put Your Majesty in trouble again."
"... I can still do this now." Chunjia pinched her cheek and said softly, "Okay, I still have some things to do here. You can go back. I will come to see you later when I am done with my work. ."
He was originally going to Meng Youyi's place tonight, and now that he said this, it was obvious that Meng Youyi was going to follow in Ouyang Fulu's footsteps, and the wait was in vain.
Yun Fenghuang responded calmly, stood up and left.
Returning to Huanhua Hall, I asked someone to fetch water to wash off my makeup. I was thinking carefully about what to do next. Someone came from outside to report that it was Xie Meng who wanted to see me.
"Have you finished your homework?" Yun Fenghuang casually called someone in. Seeing the niece's brisk steps but twinkling eyes, as if she had something to say, she raised an eyebrow and asked.
Xie Meng said: "No, I just heard that my aunt was in a bad mood, so I came over to have a look. After all, the homework is left there, and it won't slip away because I don't write it. How can it be more important to care about my aunt?"
Yun Fenghuang smiled and said: "Stop talking sweetly to me, your aunt, I don't want to do this!"
"How could it be?" Xie Meng came over and lay on her shoulder, made a face in front of the bronze mirror, and said with a smile, "As long as I coax aunt well, no matter how much nonsense I keep, how can aunt be willing to do anything to me?"
"Don't think so." Yun Fenghuang reminded her kindly, "There's not much love in this world that can't be worn away. Even if you are my biological niece, I have to tell you that no matter how much you love or protect you, unless I plan to completely break up, otherwise I should restrain myself. Especially you are not my only niece, but don’t imitate the one in Huzhu Palace. Look at the Empress Dowager Yuan protecting her, now there are still three nieces with her In the palace?"
Some people always think that children are ignorant and ignorant, and even if their childish words are wrong, they will not remind them, they just want to be interesting - but Yun Fenghuang himself came from playing with his own mind when he was a child. Why is it unclear that at Xie Meng's age, although he is still naive and ignorant? , one can learn bad things if he is not careful.
Although she did not regard her niece as more important than her own life, she still loved her.
I don’t want to raise a second Yuan Niang.
Naturally, I have to tell her the importance of propriety.
"But aunt, didn't you just go to discuss it with His Majesty yourself?" Yun Fenghuang was still thinking about whether he had been too doting on Xie Meng recently, and whether he should add more burdens to his niece's homework. Who knew that this niece's eyes were so bright? Turning around, he covered his mouth and chuckled, saying slyly, "Originally, Concubine Xuan was not in your hands, so there was no need to disturb His Majesty who was dealing with government affairs, but you still did it... Well, aunt, shouldn't you? Are you planning to break up with His Majesty? Or has Auntie forgotten about it? "
Yun Fenghuang paused while selecting the hairpin ring, then looked to the left and right.
Zhu E, a native of the Qing Dynasty, and other attendants lowered their heads and closed their eyes, not daring to express their anger.
On the other hand, Xie Meng relied on his favor and smiled.
"I don't know what you are doing when you suddenly come over and say these things." After a moment of silence, Yun Fenghuang slapped his niece on the back and hummed, "Are you colluding with each other?"
She didn't exert much force, but Xie Meng still screamed in cooperation and threw himself into her arms: "Auntie is so ruthless... Am I not your beloved niece?"
Yun Fenghuang said with a cold face: "Get up and talk!"
Xie Meng hesitated for a while, peeking at her stern expression, and then he got up obediently, straightened his clothes, and whispered: "We are doing it for auntie's sake. After all, if auntie makes any mistake, we will How can life be so comfortable?"
"So you think your aunt and I are so confused?" Yun Fenghuang thought to himself. This niece actually felt that her life was comfortable. It seemed that she had too little schoolwork. "Then why didn't you stop me when I went to Taichu Palace just now? I?"
