In the evening of this day, Chen Sheng inquired about the news and said that Emperor Chunjia had indeed gone to Mianfu Palace to attend to his illness, but he was dismissed by Queen Mother Ji after not staying long. According to the Queen's arrangement, Wei Ronghua should be staying at Yijia Palace tonight. at.
Yun Fenghuang chuckled softly: "If that's the case, Wei Ronghua won't talk to me sourly tomorrow... Well, there's no need to go and say hello tomorrow."
She wasn't very concerned about the health of Queen Mother Ji, because she had seen her two days ago. She looked really good. It was probably just a minor problem like wind and cold, which would be gone in three or two days, and would not affect the overall situation.
So I asked Chen Sheng if he had anything else to report, rewarded him with a few dollars, and waved him off. By the way, he also dismissed Xile in the room, thinking about the next step alone.
So far, her plan is going well.
The threat to the throne has been basically resolved. Huzhu Palace, a place recognized by the Sixth Palace as a bad place, is now quite comfortable to live in; gaining the trust of Queen Ji is also in progress. The only one to worry about is probably Concubine Yun Shu.
However, Concubine Shu is not suitable as a scapegoat for manipulation of her children.
After all, they are all sisters of the Yun clan now. According to the rules of the palace prohibiting those who are not the head of the family from raising heirs, no matter how many children Yun Fenghuang and Yun Qingman gave birth to before Jin Jieyu, they would not be able to raise them themselves, and they would have to be given to the first palace. The main position... So among the main positions, who else is more logical than Concubine Yun Shu
Therefore, both emotionally and rationally, Concubine Yun Shu would not target her two sisters on this issue. Even if the two sisters were happy, she would become the most reliable protector.
After all, the child was born for her.
With this relationship, and the fact that Concubine Yun Shu was not a brainless master like Yue Jieyu, Yun Fenghuang thought over and over again and gave up his plan against Concubine Shu.
However, Nian Xuan's consideration was also reasonable. No matter what the purpose was, Emperor Chunjia actually stayed at Xi Xingxuan for a few nights. The news spread quickly after her mother and aunt came out of the cabinet. If she also spreads such a physique...
Yun Fenghuang frowned. If the emperor was in the imperial palace at this time, it would certainly be a dream for the new concubine to be happy. Even if we don't mention the ambition after Qianqiu, since ancient times, beauties have always had an emperor's heir, regardless of gender. After all, mother is more valuable than son, and she has a foothold in the palace from then on.
But Emperor Chunjia is now...
Concubine Shu and Yue Jieyu were two examples in the past. Now that they are the concubines second only to the queen, they are also very timid and do not dare to step out of Yanlan Palace.
She is a little noble person with no one to rely on. Once she is happy, what is the difference between her and a talisman
Do you think Concubine Shu will protect her
Not to mention that Concubine Shu didn't even protect her pregnancy at the beginning. Even if she learned her lesson and ensured that Yun Fenghuang gave birth safely, what about after the birth
Maybe this is what Mr. Xie said before, leaving the mother and leaving the son.
Yun Fenghuang had no friendship with Emperor Chunjia in the first place, but he had no intention of risking his life to give this man an heir. Even if she considers that the child is her own flesh and blood, she has only grown up this year and is not at the age where she is eager to have a child. She really cannot bear the feeling of sacrificing herself to protect a child.
Therefore, contraception and even abortion are imperative.
But just like she advised Yuan Niang, why not just put it into practice if you have to do it anyway
Maybe there will be some unexpected gains
Now that Concubine Shu was not suitable, Yun Fenghuang thought about the throne in the palace, and suddenly he thought... The queen's cousin Ji Zhaoyuan had forced herself to change her name before, hadn't she
Although it was unsuccessful, the grudge was settled.
If he didn't do it to her now, he would be sorry for his reputation of being unyielding!
The most important thing is that Nianxuan once fell into the hands of Queen Mother Yuan, and Yun Fenghuang still has doubts about her trustworthiness.
But what about dealing with Ji's concubine... It is estimated that even if the Queen Mother Yuan knows about it, even if she restrains herself without contributing, it is absolutely impossible to destroy it!
The only way to destroy it is to blackmail Yun Fenghuang after the matter is completed, but Yun Fenghuang is not afraid of this. After all, she does not intend to let Empress Dowager Yuan's aunt and nephew live until then...
After some deliberation, she was satisfied and called Xile in to help her wash and prepare herself.
"There is no need to ask for greetings in the next three days. You tell them to hurry up and clean up the Zibei Palace." Yun Fenghuang threw the hot handkerchief after wiping his face back into the silver basin, looked at the bronze mirror and said, "How small is Xi Xingxuan?" It’s a little too crowded, it’s really crowded with so many people living there.”
Xile agreed and made some trivial suggestions, probably to remind Yun Fenghuang that he could still ask for some regulatory furnishings... Of course he wanted to ask for it from the chief. Anyway, now that Yuan Yuniang's momentum had been taken away, it was exactly It’s the right time to get what you want.
The master and servant discussed for a while how to search the Ningbi Palace tomorrow, and Yun Fenghuang asked casually, "By the way, what about Liuhong?"
"My maid seems to be very diligent in her work, but she doesn't like to talk." Xile looked at the water basin and said softly, "But she has been serving in Xiao Penglai before. There has been no master in that place for many days... I think she just arrived. You are here, don’t worry about making mistakes if you say too much, things should get better if we get along with each other for a while.”
Yun Fenghuang said "hmm" and said: "Xiao Penglai is indeed a remote place. I also saw her helping me once and thought that even though my place is not a very good place, it is still more popular than Xiao Penglai. It's just that my status is still low now, and I have limited manpower under my command, so I can't afford to support someone who has nothing to do. If she is such a lazy person, I asked for it. It's really not good. I have to ask the empress to send her away. Go somewhere else."
Xile pursed her lips and smiled: "That maid must be well served, so as not to be disliked by the noble one day."
"I'm disgusted with you now, look at how petty you are." Yun Fenghuang joked, "When I talked about Liu Hong, I just thought about myself."
"It's not because your noble Lord loves us all the time that this servant girl has the guts to have sex with you?" There are only eight of us in total. You can see clearly at a glance whoever is doing things indiscriminately and who is cheating on others. They are really such unscrupulous slaves. I will never spare you!"
Yun Fenghuang nodded: "Okay, it's getting late, so you should go and have a rest. There are a lot of things in the past two days, and it's been very hard for you to go in and out with me, so you don't have to stay with me tonight. I'm sorry that Xingxuan is a small place. The place where you live is only two steps away from this dormitory. I never have to wait for you at night, and His Majesty is not here today, so we are just hiding away."
Xile declined several times, but seeing her firm attitude, she agreed.
At night, Yun Fenghuang waited with bated breath for a long time, but saw no movement, so he wondered if Liuhong just came to Xixingxuan and was unfamiliar with the environment, so he couldn't take action immediately
Fortunately, she had prepared many words to answer Gong Xiangxiao's questions... It was a waste of emotions...
Yun Fenghuang sighed and went to sleep. He got up early the next morning, gave some instructions about moving, and then went to Ningbi Hall to take a shower.
This time Yuan Yuniang still didn't show up, and she was probably still in a dilemma.
She and Aunt Zhu had several exchanges in the side hall, and were about to get down to the topic of asking for something. At this time, someone from the palace was spying outside. Aunt Zhu frowned, confessed to Yun Fenghuang, and went out to see.
Not long after, he came back with a slight smile and congratulated Yun Fenghuang, saying: "The foreigner learned that the empress dowager's phoenix body was inconsistent with the body, and everyone in the third rank handed over the certificate. The empress dowager was grateful for everyone's support, and Yun Zai Mian said. I would like to say hello outside the Palace of Fortune, and allow everyone to spend some time with the concubines in the palace... I heard that the noble’s adoptive mother, Mrs. You have to hurry up, lest you go late, but you won’t be able to say a few words!”
Yun Fenghuang was quite surprised. Yesterday, Yun Qingman was worried that the gathering of the concubines and their families would be canceled because of Empress Dowager Ji's illness. Unexpectedly, the gathering was brought forward instead.
She didn't believe that this was just Queen Mother Ji's pure consideration and kindness. She probably had other considerations...
For example, deliberately giving Ningbi Palace a chance to communicate with Xingning Bo Mansion
Gong Xiangxiao and Yuan Yuniang both said before that Empress Dowager Ji and Empress Dowager Ji, the aunt and nephew, have similar temperaments, and both are uneasy about being in charge of the Sixth Palace...
Just because the Ji family was taboo about the middle palace interfering in politics and worried that girls being outgoing would be detrimental to the family, the two of them did not dare to do anything too obvious. So Empress Ji enlisted her to act on her behalf, and Empress Dowager Ji...is this also a plan
Yun Fenghuang frowned. He originally thought that things were going smoothly for Yuan Nian Niang, but now things are not going well...
Although Ji's aunt and nephew have the same purpose, Yun Fenghuang doesn't think he can cooperate with the Queen Mother's plan. After all, if the Queen Mother does what the Queen wants to do, the Queen doesn't need Yun Fenghuang to do it. After her long-cherished wish came true, will she continue to support a concubine who is recognized as restless in the Sixth Palace
You have to mess up the Queen Mother’s plans!
The problem is... Yun Fenghuang has no contact with the Queen Mother Ji except to ask for her regards, and he has no idea what the Queen Mother did in private...
She sighed and decided to go to Tongxia Palace to meet Xie and others.
"You stay and look over at Dian Ningbi Palace." Yun Fenghuang went back to Xi Xingxuan to change clothes. During this period, he told Xile, "There are many people in Xixingxuan, and you are the one I trust and rely on the most. At this moment, That means I can rest assured that you are in charge of the overall situation."
But Xile said: "The noble is not here, and the maid can't go into the Ningbi Palace. At most, she can only watch who comes and how long they stay. Xijing Liuhong can do all these things, and the maid still stays with the noble." Let’s go to Concubine Shu, shall we?”
These words sounded like palace maids competing for favor, but Yun Fenghuang suspected that Empress Ji was worried about her, and told Xile not to miss the opportunity to supervise her contact with Duke Yi or the Xie family, so he paused and agreed: "That's fine."
She is now at a critical point in winning the Queen's trust, and there is no need to upset the palace for such a trivial matter.
After Yun Fenghuang agreed to take Xile with him, he looked at Xijing and Liu Hong and said, "Liu Hong will go too."
There is nothing wrong with this arrangement. Among the four palace maids, Nian Xuan is still lying down, and only three are able to work. Among them, Liu Hongcai has come. If there is only one palace maid left who can work, she will certainly not be kept.
But before Liuhong could answer, Xile added, "Your Excellency, we have a lot of things to pack. I'm afraid Xijing won't be able to handle it all by himself!"
Seeing that Yun Fenghuang did not agree to him immediately this time, but frowned slightly, knowing that the master was unhappy, he hurriedly explained, "Your Excellency just asked us to move some things to Zibei Palace first, but Chen Sheng and the others are not allowed to come over for other things." That’s it, the ones in your nobleman’s room, I think it’s better for the maids to come.”
Yun Fenghuang didn't take it seriously, but for Empress Ji's sake, she thought for a while and said calmly: "That's okay, let's leave it like this."
Hearing the displeasure in her tone, the attendants did not dare to say anything.
Xile lowered his head and showed no intention of apologizing.
After a while, the master and the servant left Huzhu Palace and walked through a deserted road as usual. The only sound of their footsteps was heard on the long palace road.
Suddenly Xile quickened his pace slightly and stopped Yun Fenghuang, saying softly: "My lord, wait a minute, the prince is waiting for you over there!"
