Chunjia stayed overnight in Huanhua Hall that night. As usual the next month, he got up before dawn to pack up and prepare for the court.
Seeing Yun Fenghuang rubbing her eyes and getting up, he gently advised her not to work for herself: "If it gets cold tomorrow, I'll just continue to rest."
In the past, it was not fun to force the concubine Xian to serve her, and Chunjia was not short of people to serve her. He was actually the quickest to do things on his own at that early stage. After teasing Yun Fenghuang a few times, he gave up.
Seeing her sleepy-eyed at the moment, wishing she could fall asleep right there, she felt soft-hearted.
Who would have thought that Yun Fenghuang glanced at him sideways when he heard this, and said without a smile: "If you don't want to, just ask me, because he won't get up. Doesn't that follow his mother's instructions? He has to go to pay respects to the Queen and plead guilty? Turn back. I have to go to the Queen Mother, so why don’t you get up early?”
Chunjia immediately stopped pitying her. He smiled and asked her if she could help. Let Yan Yin go outside to cut some thorns in the imperial garden and come back: "It's always the same as asking for forgiveness when you are burdened with thorns. Don't worry, Ah Huang. I can't think of it." He has thought about it all for me.”
Yun Fenghuang bitterly bypassed him to wash up: "You just say you feel sorry for him, you are a liar!"
After cleaning up, the two of them went east to have a meal together. Chunjia was in a good mood and had a good appetite, but Yun Fenghuang had a rare loss of appetite. Yazhen picked and picked, and it took a long time to eat a small piece of cake, tea soup and snacks. , without touching it.
Chunjia knowingly asked, "Tomorrow the cook will not do what I like? Why don't you replace him?"
"... No need." Yun Fenghuang said depressedly, "He doesn't want to use it himself."
There are many times when she is high-spirited, arrogant and confident. Even if she is severely hit, she will look haggard and desolate at that time, with her head drooped like Ruming, reluctant but not daring to make a fuss. Is it very rare? Chun Jia It looked interesting, so he suppressed a smile and continued to test: "It's so good, why don't you want to use it? Is it uncomfortable? Could you please call the imperial doctor to take a look?"
Yun Fenghuang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he obviously thought that was a good idea. Well, it was a good idea to delay the attack... But then he became frustrated again and sighed: "That's it, his mother begged to stay for a long time that time, how could she escape the first time?" It’s fifteen years after hiding in the port. It’s better to get the matter settled as soon as possible! Otherwise, she will become more irritable in two months, and Dongci will scold her even more if she comes over!”
Chunjia smiled and teased her: "Then I hope you can find a way for him to help me talk nice to Mrs. Jiang."
"Me?" Yun Fenghuang immediately raised his head and said disdainfully, "It's fine if I don't go to find her. If I go find her, she can just beat him in the leg! She said early in the morning that I, the government official, should go and let him go." If he is more sensible, don't let me worry about him, let alone ask me to help persuade her to discipline him less?"
Her expression of "I don't want to kill him" pleased Chunjia so much that when the emperor took the imperial carriage and went out, he had a smile on his lips and said to Yan Yin: "That Mrs. Jiang is very polite. I have never seen a person who can make Concubine Xian so fearful."
Yan Yincuo Jiang's perception is also good. The mother-in-law is much better than the virtuous concubine, but the people in front of the emperor are cautious in doing things and rarely express their happiness, anger, sorrow and joy directly: "Don't tell me what you said."
"But how can a lady who knows etiquette like this raise a daughter like the Concubine Xian?" A moment later, he heard Chunjia continue to speak, with a slight smile in her voice, "Go and check it out. Come on. What kind of person is Jiang?"
"... I obey my orders." Yan Yin lowered his eyes and bowed, his heart awe-inspiring.
Yun Fenghuang, who left the house one step later than Chunjia, still didn't know the emperor's thoughts and plans. She took her time to make the gesture of being unwilling but forced, and arrived late at Yanfu Palace. She was still shocked by what she saw. Concubines.
After all, Mrs. Chunke and Concubine Xian have never been to Yanfu Palace since Gu Zhen became the emperor.
If you're wrong, just say you're sick. Who doesn't know what's going on
Now that Concubine Xian is here, people can't help but doubt whether she is here to cause trouble.
Even Gu Zhen inside was surprised when he heard the report: "Concubine Xian is here? Why is Concubine Xian here? Have we not done anything recently?"
"No!" Both sides were also very confused. They glanced wrongly and exchanged information with each other about Dong's recent private moves. After confirming that they had not provoked Xuanqing Palace, they breathed a sigh of relief and continued to discuss Xian Fei's intention.
After much deliberation, no one could think of a reason. Maybe Yun Fenghuang had already been led outside to sit down in the palace. If Gu Zhen hesitated, it seemed that he was afraid of her, so he just got dressed and walked out.
To everyone's surprise, after the queen came out, Concubine Xian stood up together with many concubines to greet her. Although it was not the duty of a concubine, but in the presence of Concubine Xian, who had given the new queen a slap in the face during the ceremony after she was crowned, That's very unusual.
The concubines sat down one after another under the Queen's "no courtesy" instruction, and exchanged glances with each other. They all found the behavior of the Concubine Xian very confusing.
Anyway, if Concubine Xian is capable of doing anything, no one will believe that she respects the Queen.
Gu Zhenqi thought so, so she was very alert. After sitting down, she didn't say much. She looked around and said to herself: "There is nothing going on in the Two Moon Palace, let's go."
I need to get rid of the idle people as soon as possible!
Otherwise, when Concubine Dongxian starts to make a fuss, and so many people see that I cannot succeed, how will it end? !
I am not the queen now, so don’t be too embarrassed! ! !
With that idea in mind, Gu Zhen didn't even dare to ask the concubines, "Do you have anything to report?" He was afraid that others would not shut up or make trivial remarks. "Ask the Queen", which made her extremely embarrassed.
But she was already so cautious, and Concubine Xian interrupted just before she finished speaking: "Queen, I have something to report."
really!
The visitor is not good!
She finally started to speak!
Gu Zhidong clenched his fists consciously and said as calmly as possible: "I will keep the Concubine Xian, and the others will retreat to the East."
Hearing this, all the concubines were very disappointed. They thought they could see the scene. It turned out that the queen was smart and didn't give her a chance!
As long as they are worthy concubines or pure wives, if they dare to openly disobey the emperor's orders, they will be reluctant to comply.
However, the Queen did not give her a chance, and the Concubine Xian was not a good person. She shut up before most people had just stood up: "I also ask all sisters to bear witness to this matter. Please allow me to do so."
I'm coming!
The virtuous concubine lived in seclusion in Xuanqing Palace for many months.
There seemed to be no response to the punishment given on the day of the Queen's Ceremony, but as expected, there really was no response!
If Ming is ready, then the Queen will not even want to dismiss the Sixth Palace to save her last dignity!
Sure enough, the virtuous concubine is not the virtuous concubine!
"... It doesn't have to be like this, right?" Gu Zhen was silent for a while and asked suppressing his anger.
She knew that the virtuous concubine was an economical lamp, and she also thought that if she walked behind the throne, she would inevitably arouse deeper hostility and offense from the emperor's beloved concubine.
But she didn't expect that Concubine Xian would not give her face like that.
He even refused to send away many concubines.
Do you want your new queen to be disgraced in front of the Sixth Palace? ?
How dare she
Why does she dare
Chunjia indulged her like that? ?
Gu Zhen's heart was full of emotions, he felt sour and sad at the same time. Unless the emperor lost power in the palace, the emperor's cruelty would really be allowed to do whatever he wanted.
Even if she was ten times ahead of Yun Fenghuang in terms of background, and Yun Fenghuang couldn't compare with her in terms of qualifications, Yun Fenghuang was not the emperor's favorite. On that alone, her background, qualifications, and caution were all meaningless. !
"Your Majesty, I have something to ask for." Concubine Xian's words were gentle and gentle, but when Gu Zhen heard them, she couldn't say they were vicious.
There was Yuan Niang in front of her and Yun Fenghuang in the back. Those who were favored never seemed to know how to be merciful and merciful.
Gu Zhen's leg fingers folded in her sleeves trembled slightly. She was silent for a while, her back straightened, and she said slowly: "...Okay."
She knew that she was fighting against Yun Fenghuang, but since she was the queen and Yun Fenghuang was pressing her every step of the way, then even if...
Didong's thoughts disappeared in an instant because of Concubine Xian's actions: Yun Fenghuang stood up and left his seat, walked to the phoenix throne, and knelt down respectfully!
After that, he kowtowed three times seriously: "Concubine Hu, the Yun family, disrespected the queen and defied the palace rules. I came here to plead guilty and pray for punishment from the queen!" "
Gu Zhen didn't react for a while. He thought in a daze that even if she did that, there would definitely be hindrances to Jie Donglai. For example, she shut up and said, "Concubine Hu is guilty, but the Queen is also guilty!" "
