The palace attendants hurried back to Yanlan Palace to inform Concubine Xuan. Concubine Xuan looked at the evidence on her legs and sighed: "That's it, let's wait until tomorrow."
"Your Majesty, something like that happened tomorrow. How long has it been since Bidong entered the Huanhua Palace? How could he have rested so quickly?" Wet nurse Yin Shi frowned and said, "It's 80% likely that Bidong is being coaxed by the true concubine and should not be disturbed. , so the Didong people are lying to us."
Concubine Xuan said helplessly: "But even so, do we want to force our way into the Huanhua Palace? The true concubine entered the palace before the others in this palace, and she has a relationship with Bidong. Bidong Ruming is naturally a bit cruel to her. Moreover, the second prince and Princess Zhaoqing are raising their eldest son, but the eldest son and eldest daughter of the emperor are actually here. Wouldn't the emperor give extra dignity to the adoptive mothers of those two? We are arguing, at least for now. "
"Is there any news from the palace tomorrow?" Mrs. Yin lowered her voice, "Mr. Ji gave birth to the wrong twins. Although according to the relationship, the two children should be raised by the middle palace, but Bi Dong How could the Ji family's daughter have a legitimate son? She would definitely refuse to do so. The Gu family was also ignored by Bidong. The real concubine had raised a second prince and a very famous princess, Zhaoqing, so she couldn't be too contentious, right? If your Majesty opens your mouth, Your Majesty will allow your Majesty to raise at least one prince?"
Concubine Xuan was a little reluctant: "I have just entered the palace, so there is no need to be in such a hurry?"
She didn't deny that Yun Fenghuang couldn't bear children of his own, but if he had his own flesh and blood, why would he raise another woman's child for the emperor
Besides, Ji Muzi is not the legitimate daughter of the Ji family, who knows if Chunjia will have any grudge against the wrong twin
"Keep it first, so that you can have reason to invite Your Majesty to come over from time to time in the future." Ms. Yin advised her, "Anyway, it's just a concubine, and it's not the emperor's eldest son. Arrange a few palace people to take care of it, and wait for you to do it yourself." Doesn’t it cost a lot to have children?”
Bu Nao is not a tool to compete for favor.
"That's not appropriate." Concubine Xuan said, "It's just a matter of fighting for the birth of an ordinary concubine. But since they are not the blood of the Ji family's legitimate daughters, we want to use them as rafts, how can the Ji family ignore it? ? Not to mention the previous dynasty, don't forget that the Queen is 'sick', but the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother are very close to each other. They don't talk about ordinary things. If we catch the reason that the Emperor doesn't care, when the time comes No matter where the trouble goes, we will always be at fault, and Ping Hong has ruined the reputation of the Luo girls... If not, forget it."
"Then..." Mrs. Yin was a little reluctant. Chun Jia was already that old. Ordinary people would be able to marry their children in a few years. They finally had a child, but they were all in their infancy. Although the third and fourth princes were not disciplined, The daughters of the clan are not princes, nor are they rare twins - but thinking about what Concubine Xuan said makes sense, she sighed, "But on the True Concubine's side... what can I do? I'm so depressed by her all the time. No way."
The Yin family reminded, "The true concubine is with us in terms of position and affection, and her only weakness is her poor family background. Not to mention that the second prince of the concubine Shu's name is raised in front of her, let's talk about the fact that Xie's son is married to the princess. , and there are brothers who have been named on the gold list. After three to five years, the Xie family has been revitalized. It is not similar to our family, but it cannot be underestimated!"
"At that time, if you are still ruthless..."
"Once there is something wrong with the palace, then..."
The one who may not be able to bear it will be Yun Fenghuang.
Concubine Xuan's face also became serious. Her goal was very clear, which was to succeed to the throne. In comparison, Chunjia doted on Yun Fenghuang more, went to Huanhua Palace more often, and did not have much sincerity towards her. Although it is not regrettable, it is tolerable.
But she will never give up her position in the middle palace!
"Your Majesty, it is my servant's opinion." At this moment, they were the only master and servant in the palace, so the Yin family said again, "The true concubine is smart and cunning, and she is favored by the emperor. Even though she is not happy with her, the empress dowager, who is a loving mother, cannot Please consider Bidong's mood. If we just wait for her to make a mistake or be rejected by Bidong, I'm afraid there will be no chance."
Because the true concubine is not a fool, she must not make a big mistake rashly.
Moreover, Chunjia was very cruel to the concubine. Even if she accidentally did something wrong, the emperor would help to find out. Chunjia's heart was with her. It was fine for Empress Dowager Yuan to find faults and cause a little trouble. What if she really wanted to take advantage of the real concubine? , it is impossible to make a mistake unless there is enough evidence.
After all, the empress dowager was not her mother, and the one who was not her mother was not close to the emperor. Therefore, the two empress dowagers, the loving mother and the holy mother, did not have enough restraint on Chunjia.
There is no way to control the emperor with filial piety like those powerful empress dowagers in the past, so that they can keep their promises.
"Although she entered the palace a year earlier than the empress, she is as old as the empress. Is it really true to expect that she will be rejected by the emperor when she gets old and loses her beauty..."
Maybe the real concubine has lived as beautiful as a flower under the emperor's care, but maybe Concubine Xuan is one step ahead of her
The most important thing to ask for was "No," Mrs. Yin's voice was even lower, "The second prince and Princess Zhaoqing were hugging each other very much. Although Yuxue, the son of the two younger princes, was ruthless and not Bidong's biological child. Bones and blood, you can just take a look at it at that time. If children grow up very quickly, in a few years, the two little palace masters will be able to walk, run, and act like a spoiled child, then... "
Concubine Xuan bit her lip. Not to mention the second prince, although he was ruthless, he was not ruthless in an ordinary way. In the eyes of a person of Concubine Xuan's background, he was not so ruthless as to shine in front of his eyes. .
Can Princess Zhaoqing...
The eldest daughter of the emperor deserves to have a beautiful biological mother, who is so beautiful.
Because Concubine Xuan did not have a good relationship with the real concubine, she only saw her a few times during the full moon banquet, but she was also a little bit confused - such a beautiful and ruthless child is not her own daughter, and she has grown to be three or five years old. Dida ran behind him, hugging her thigh in a coquettish manner, and shouted "Father" in a soft voice... What could Chunjia not agree to
With such a daughter to help him keep his favor, wouldn't it mean that Yun Fenghuang's frustration is far away
"... We really can't continue going east like that." Concubine Xuan was silent for a while, exhaled, and said attentively, "The true concubine can ask for anything, except the phoenix position."
After a pause, she said, "The true concubine is cunning and clever, and with her majesty ruthless and the emperor's heir beside her, ordinary things may not bring her down."
A flash of cruelty flashed in Yin's eyes, and she said in a deep voice: "So, she must do something heinous!"
... In Huanhua Hall, Yun Fenghuang didn't know about the discussion between Concubine Xuan and her servants. She cried and begged for death and survival for half an hour. She felt tired, so she showed mercy and let Chunjia go.
How could Chunjia remember what she suspected about her at that time
Feeling that he had finally escaped, he became more and more coaxing, and tactfully suggested that when Xie Meng grew up, he could be given a title, such as village head or county head.
"Meng'er is very young, how can he take on the responsibility?" Yun Fenghuang glanced at him and said, "I don't care about that, just ask Bidong to make me happy."
Anyway, if you can't fulfill it for the time being, it's better to give it to me to show your innocence.
Chunjia smiled and said, "Isn't it better to be a favor to my niece?"
He said that, in addition to doting on Yun Fenghuang, he also felt that the Xie family had a weak foundation. Even if they had a consort and were granted the title of village head and county head, they would not be able to develop to a level comparable to those of the Luo family and the Ji family. , enough to threaten the imperial power.
"Let's be serious!" Yun Fenghuang gently patted the back of Dong Dong's leg and said thoughtfully, "The banquet tomorrow is really unexpected, and I can't blame my loving mother, the Empress Dowager, for doubting me. After all, I came naturally. In her heart, she was a wanton person! But it was really not my concubine who did it. Later, the empress dowager, the loving mother, also said that by chance, the palace would come to announce the good news tomorrow... I always felt that Like if there’s a connection.”
She reminded Chunjia, "I remember, when the news of Ji Yuwan's pregnancy came out, did she have a good confinement?"
"..." Chunjia has always been keen, but the atmosphere between Empress Dowager Yuan and Yun Fenghuang became good just after the Bu Nao Mingyue incident happened.
He was caught between the affectionate queen mother and the doting concubine. He followed the one and favored the other. He was mediating like a long rope until now, and he didn't think too much about it after all the hard work.
After hearing this and thinking for a moment, his face turned gloomy and he said, "That is such a coincidence. It must have been arranged intentionally."
Yun Fenghuang chuckled and said, "If I ask you to deliberately arrange to announce the good news on a good month, it's nothing, it's just human nature. Can you... I ask you tomorrow if there's nothing about Anliu. I'll come to the palace to announce the good news. I'll have a chat with you." Double happiness comes to your door, Bidong, what will happen?"
