Chao Jingyou narrowed her eyes slightly when she heard this, trying to smile or not and said, "Oh, aren't you very favored? Why didn't His Majesty tell you?"
"Of course Your Majesty told me, but I still want to hear what you said." Yun Fenghuang sneered and leaned back, reminding her, "Don't forget, even if Your Majesty allows you to sit firmly as the daughter-in-law of the Qi family, Once your husband makes a mistake, don't you have to remain a widow? And now the former harem wants to use the fact that Xie and Qi's family had intended to marry to criticize me, the Xie family, and your husband, but Not one or two!”
"So you won't tell me the relevant things again. If there are any omissions in His Majesty's account, do you plan to bury the whole family with me anytime and anywhere?"
Chao Jingyou sneered: "What are you thinking about asking this... Probably only you know it in your heart."
After scoffing, she finally thought about her words and said slowly, "Actually, I just wanted to take advantage of you. After you entered the palace, you attracted His Majesty's attention. His Majesty probably checked your details and thought that you could be used. This is not true. Last year, my husband went south to the capital and refused to take me with him. I tried my best to get the support of my mother-in-law and sent someone to escort me to the imperial capital to find him. On the way, at the inn, I met a chamberlain named Jiang... "
The beginning was similar to what Yun Fenghuang expected.
Chunjia had already planned it, and Jiang Lan had an ulterior motive for his exile in the North.
On the way, I didn't hesitate to give Chao Jingyou a ride: "That father-in-law is very good at talking. He said that although His Majesty is still dormant, he is the emperor after all. My worries are nothing but a piece of cake for Your Majesty."
"Even if His Majesty's own wish cannot be fulfilled, helping me is just a small matter."
"If your Majesty succeeds, it will be the merit of following the dragon. Not only will I gain a lot, but I will also be able to benefit future generations!"
Chao Jingyou sighed, "After all, I have been fighting with you for so many years, and I am not one of those stupid people... Don't you understand what you are saying?"
Since Chunjia helped her with just a little effort, once she refused, it would be a little effort for the emperor to kill her!
The kind that no one knows about.
"Are you such an honest person?" Yun Fenghuang said he didn't believe her. "Why didn't you agree at the time and later went to the Imperial Capital to report to His Majesty with the regent or the Ji family?"
If at this moment, the emperor's servants go out to recruit people, it would not be surprising if they bow their heads and bow to them.
After all, Chunjia has gained quite a bit of reputation over the years.
And with a righteous reputation in hand, it is not difficult to win over people's hearts.
But at that time...
Yun Fenghuang himself didn't like the emperor, but he stood first for Concubine Shu and then for Empress, and once helped Empress Ji make plans to trap Chunjia to death.
By the way, Jiang Lan was the one who helped the queen run away with people!
Yun Fenghuang didn't believe that Chao Jingyou's eyesight was better than his own. At that moment, he could tell through Jiang Lan that Chunjia's city was deep and troubled was about to happen!
"..." Sure enough, Chao Jingyou was embarrassed for a moment, bit her lip, and was embarrassed for a while. Then, under Yun Fenghuang's questioning, she reluctantly said, "I want to deal with the man named Jiang and go find a suitable person." It’s been exposed, but you don’t even think about it, you can think of it, but the emperor you serve can’t think of it?”
"At that time, I was thinking that I was going to save my own life, so I pretended to be perfunctory, and then I agreed smoothly. I also kowtowed to the direction of the palace a few times, saying that although I was a country woman, I also knew that the loyal army should serve the country..."
Chao Jingyou said angrily, "Who knew that slave would praise me with a smile, hit a snake with his heel and follow it with a stick - let me vote for him!"
Yun Fenghuang almost laughed out loud. She had not spoken to Jiang Lan a few times, and he was exiled to the North, so she didn't know Jiang Lan very well.
Listening to this, it turns out that those who can serve in front of the emperor do not have fuel-efficient lamps.
Holding back his laughter, Yun Fenghuang asked again: "Then what kind of certificate did you give me?"
Chao Jing sighed: "I am a weak woman, what can I give him? After thinking about it for a few times, I can't do it. I can only reveal all the things about our Northland!"
Without waiting for Yun Fenghuang to ask, she told her everything in detail, "What about family feuding, what about grudges, oh, and about your concubine. I'm telling the truth, and I'll tell you in detail. I told him..."
"Including the person behind your Chao family?" Yun Fenghuang interrupted her and asked with interest.
Chao Jingyou's expression did not change: "A dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist... Speaking of which, I really want to thank you. If I hadn't been tortured by you all those years, I would have had no choice but to take care of my face and meet someone like you. Being played to death without a place to complain, I won't be so willing to do anything."
"It's nothing. We all grew up together. In the future, just be a vegetarian and copy scriptures, and sincerely pray for me." Yun Fenghuang said nonchalantly, "Let's be serious, who is behind you Chao family? ?”
Chao Jingyou raised her eyebrows and said, "He didn't tell you?"
This "he" is of course Qi Jiulu.
"Do you know anything about him?" Yun Fenghuang asked without answering.
"Okay." Chao Jingyou breathed out and said slowly, "The person who encouraged me, the Chao family, to send someone to seduce Xie Fengnui was... Xingning Bofu!"
Yun Fenghuang: "...???!!!"
Didn't you say he was Marquis Qingping? ?
She calmed down for a moment and then said, "Even if the Xingning County Mansion wants to share your Majesty's worries, why would they consider going to Beidi?"
Judging from the situation at that time, no, it should be said that until now, Chunjia's primary enemy is the Ji family.
Before the Ji family was eliminated, he went to plan the Northland first... What kind of operation is this
Even Chunjia himself was cautious when dealing with Beidi Buzi, always paying attention to the regent's mood.
If you find anything wrong, straighten your hair immediately...
Anyway, before the Ji family collapsed, the emperor would never completely fall out with his uncle.
Does Xingningbo Mansion have the courage
"Perhaps they feel that their family has no role to interfere in the Imperial Capital." Chao Jingyou picked up a plum from the fruit plate, gnawed it slowly, and said, "The Ji family is not stupid. Emperor Xiaozong had no children, although the regent We have only a few heirs, but the vassal kings have many descendants of all clans, large and small. Why choose the fifteen-year-old King Fuyang?"
"Isn't it because King Fuyang is a single descendant, orphans and widowers are easy to bully, and King Fuyang's direct relative, the Yuan family, is not something to be afraid of?"
"Otherwise, with all their hard work, wouldn't they have made Yuan's wedding dress?"
"So it's normal for the Yuan family to be stupid... If they were smart, the Ji family would either not have chosen Prince Fuyang at all, or they wouldn't have let them live in peace until now."
Yun Fenghuang squinted at her: "You are quite good at talking nonsense. Who are you trying to play tricks on? If the Xingning House did this without Ji's handwriting behind it, how could you and His Majesty have cooperated inside and outside? Is Ji going to be cruel this time?"
"How did I know the filthiness of these wealthy families? I just followed His Majesty's instructions. No matter who came to gossip with me, I still followed the instructions when I was beating the drum. It's just that after I went to the court, I didn't listen. It's just your Majesty's arrangement." Chao Jingyou chuckled and said, "How can a woman like me be able to dictate such temple matters? I am not your empress."
"It was three years ago that the Ji family instigated the Ningbo Mansion to do this. At that time, His Majesty was still hiding his power and biding his time." Yun Fenghuang took a sip of tea and thought to himself, "They should still have great trust in Your Majesty. Otherwise, His Majesty would not have been allowed to wait until last year to launch the campaign... If you do this at this time, then you are not going towards Your Majesty, but towards the Regent?"
Then she thought about why Qi Jiulu told her that Chao was suspected of being the Marquis of Qingping.
This must be Ji's disguise for Xing Ning Bo's side, or Xing Ning Bo's mansion listened to Ji's advice - after all, if it wasn't so concealed, Chunjia would have been a proper puppet at that time. , the regent knew that his original direct relatives and foreigners were actually causing trouble on their own territory, and he might go directly to the palace to settle the score with Chunjia.
Regardless of whether Chunjia was willing to defend the Yuan family or not, he would definitely be unable to do anything at that time. He could only follow the regent's wishes and punish Xing Ningbo Mansion.
It's okay for the Yuan family to be unlucky like this, but for the Ji family, wouldn't it be of no use if the family was exposed
It would be better to let them stay hidden and stir up trouble in the name of Marquis Qingping... Well, so the Marquis Qingping and the Regent don't agree with each other
Otherwise, if the regent notices something, wouldn't he just confront Marquis Qingping directly
Yun Fenghuang realized this and thought about the situation of the regent prince at home revealed by Gong Xiangxiao himself and Qi Jiulu, and narrowed his eyes slightly: Gong Xiangxiao had always been worried that his father, who once loved him very much, would Because of his ambition and love for his stepwife's youngest son, he abandoned his wife's eldest son.
But if the regent is really cruel to his eldest son... what gap can there be between him and Qingpinghou, the son-in-law
Qingpinghou was born as a eunuch, and he could not have any ambitions for the throne. All his glory and wealth were even based on imperial power.
Although he also sent an adopted daughter into the palace to be his concubine, Lu Qidao was neither favored nor had any heirs. In contrast, Princess Lu finally gave birth to a son to the Prince Regent, and he was the main wife, so she was more worthy of the attention of Marquis Qingping.
If the regent is willing to appoint the youngest son instead and promises to appoint the youngest son as the crown prince after the event is completed, there is no reason why Qingping Hou will not support him with all his strength.
But now it seems... there is not much trust between the father-in-law and the son-in-law of the Prince Regent's Palace.
It's no wonder that the regent, who had spared no effort in supporting Xiaozong before his death, and also won over the Marquis of Qingping through marriage, still stayed where he was after so many years.
To deal with the Ji family, we have to rely on Chunjia to take the lead in the charge...
Yun Fenghuang sighed, thinking that there was a reason why this master failed to become the emperor's younger brother, and he was too indecisive.
If she had been the regent, she would have made everyone in the Qingping Hou Mansion dizzy.
Even if you really don't want to change the name of the younger son, you agreed first, and sent you away far away on the pretext that you were afraid that the eldest son would threaten the younger son's status. When the dust settles, you will be the emperor. If you want to go back on your word, what else can someone named Lu do
Well, no, if she were the regent, when Concubine Yuan passed away, she would hide her eldest son and claim that both mother and son were gone. Moreover, it was impossible to marry Princess Lu just now. It would have to be to arrange the positions of a principal concubine, two side concubines, and concubines, allowing them to compete for favor and love, and use the crown prince's position as a bait... Don't worry about a group of father-in-laws not working hard.
… It’s a pity she’s not the regent.
Yun Fenghuang calmed down regretfully, raised his head and said to Chao Jingyou: "Okay, I know about this. What are you going to do next? Just go back to the North like this? Are you not afraid of being caught up by Ji's people on the way? Already?"
Chao Jing said with a smile: "What your beloved concubine did is really not very good. Didn't Your Majesty tell you anything? Our husband and wife have been greatly wronged this time. How could we go back to Beidi to suffer that kind of misfortune?" Are you suffering from the cold? Your Majesty will arrange a seat for my husband in the temple, and of course I will live with my husband in the Imperial Capital."
She looked at Yun Fenghuang and smiled, "If my husband is promoted quickly, I can come to pay my respects during every new year and festival in the future. Is your Majesty happy?"
