Jia Pingye's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. Ming Hongyun Fenghuang asked Princess Minghui if she could.
This is actually not surprising, because Concubine Wei Yin is not good at dealing with people. Even if Princess Minghui has a special status, the emperor needs people who are particularly kind and tolerant. But when does Guanyun Fenghuang act, has he ever cared about those people?
The question depends on Yun Fenghuang's formation and that revenge. It is absolutely right that the thunder was louder and the raindrops were lighter.
Once, it seemed that the momentum was so great that it coerced Gu Zhen and others who were not in the back position, and instigated the Sixth Palace to create obstacles for Minghui and the Empress Dowager. For Sun Li, no real harm was caused.
At most, he would be embarrassed for a while.
But as Ru Ming watched Yun Fenghuang start interrogating Ji Sheng, a commoner, he knew that she would not give up.
"Empress, that matter... I don't know very well about it." Jia Pingye hesitated for a while and then said hesitantly, "At that time, I and the Lu family had equal status and similar status, so they had always been in contact. But. After all, the Lu family was not in the line of regent. His adoptive father was incompatible with the concubine's father and brother, so they did not have a very close relationship. Moreover, the empress knew clearly that at that time, the Ji family was in power, and Ji Sheng, a commoner, was the mother-in-law and the empress dowager. The entire harem, except for The Queen Mother does not care about worldly affairs, she is a loving mother and a Holy Mother, and she is extremely jealous of them, let alone the concubines."
"So even if I am close to Mrs. Lu, how can I dare to ask her about my mother, the Empress Dowager?"
That makes sense, but Yun Fenghuang said lightly: "No? If there are other more honest concubines, it's fine if they don't dare to inquire. But I, Mr. Jia, if I remember correctly, did I follow the concubine at first? The Zheng family later defected to the former empress Ji Lingzi, and only after those two fell successively did she defect to this palace, right?"
Although it was not true, but it was said clearly and redly, even if the imperial concubine said it herself, Jia Pingye immediately knelt down and defended herself: "I used to be stupid, blind, and didn't know the empress..."
"I don't want to talk about those words. I don't know the truth that when the water is clear, there will be no fish." Yun Fenghuang laughed and interrupted her, "I know very well about those things in my past. I also know that I am a kind-hearted person who can’t help but let me tell you, why do I ask you to take me in? I was promoted to the harem before and you gave me a hand?”
Jia Pingye was startled, and she trembled consciously. She didn't say anything. Yun Fenghuang had already said slowly, "I am not a loyal person, otherwise why would my former masters be gone? I am very good." Yes? But there are shortcomings and longings. What I am interested in is my cleverness. I said myself, for a person like me, even if Mrs. Zheng was there to support me, I would not want to leave a path for myself. A way out? Not to mention that after the Zheng family lost power, I just happened to fall into the eyes of the former queen!"
"There are many people in the palace. My family background is not particularly good, and I am not very fond of you. What does the former Queen do for me?"
"..." Jia Pingye was speechless and bit her lip.
She was very reluctant to get to know Yun Fenghuang, because she knew that Yun Fenghuang's coming to the east would definitely not make things easier for the eldest princess Minghui, and would even fundamentally shake Minghui's future.
This does not mean that Jia Pingye, like Gu Zhen, has some guilt and affection for Minghui and cannot bear to be harmed by her.
After all, as Yun Fenghuang said, for a concubine like her who has had three masters in the ten years since she entered the palace, there is only so much mistaking the importance of friendship.
Jia Pingye asks if she is afraid of suffering the disaster of Chiyu.
Where does Princess Minghui's identity and dignity lie? If something goes wrong, how can it be easily revealed by the Empress Dowager and other officials and clan members
As the beloved concubine of Chunjia, the instigator was also a deep and powerful figure in the city. Since she dared to murder the eldest princess, she would definitely be prepared to get away with it.
Could it be that the preparation for getting away with it was using her, Jia Pingye, as a shield
After all, does Jia Pingye remember how Lu Qidao died
What plot to kill the Sixth Palace and leave the concubine without heirs... Jia Pingye knew too well how impatient Lu Qidao was. I wonder if he had the ability to be Jieyu for many years like him
It's just that we need a culprit at first, and she is the most suitable one to choose from, so the blame will be given to her.
As for the truth, it is clearest in the head.
The lesson was too profound, and not long had passed. How could Jia Pingye dare to forget it
"Mother, I am indeed... indeed a person with a strong will." She thought about it, and said to Yun Fenghuang with a dry voice, "But I really didn't dare to ask more about the common man Ji Sheng. Because that matter is very taboo among the Lu family. I have been gossiping about it. It seems that because her adoptive father came from a commoner Ji Sheng, he later followed Xiaozong and became an in-law with the regent. The key is not, he later I have always been consistent with the late Emperor Xiaozong and the regent, and it seems that the matter about the emperor's brother was not spread to him. Because of these reasons, the common man Ji Shengcuo and Lu Chuncao have always had opinions."
"I once wanted to flatter Ji Sheng, a common man, and brought up the topic when chatting with Mr. Lu, but Ms. Lu was very unhappy and directly told me not to mention her."
Jia Pingye added, "Furthermore, during those years when Mrs. Lu was in the palace, she had little contact with the Mianfu Palace. I feel that even if she grew up in front of Ji Sheng, a commoner, she would be estranged when she grows up. After all, Ji Sheng, a common man, has two biological nieces in the palace. In terms of closeness and status, why should we consider the Lu family whose foster father is already at odds with Ji Sheng, a common man?"
"..." Yun Fenghuang frowned, a flash of disappointment flashing in his eyes.
To be honest, digging a hole through Lu Qidao's legs to dig a hole for Ji Sheng's mother and daughter was not her idea early in the morning. Lu Qidao was very alive at that time. If he started to move his legs at that time, he might not have a chance.
After all, whether what Bucang Jia Ping Ye Ruming said was true or not, her relationship with Ji Sheng was far removed from one level, far inferior to the understanding of Lu Qidao, who had grown up in front of Ji Sheng, and Cuomianfu Palace in the east.
The question is no Chunjia.
Yun Fenghuang knew very well that he had wrongly paid to Ji Sheng, and wrongly paid to former empress Ji Lingzi and other members of the Ji family. Even if Chunjia knew that the legs were not very upright, she would not care.
Because the emperor didn't like them in his heart. Of course, if the emperor looked at it from the perspective of an outsider, he might not like the Empress Dowager and Minghui so much. The question is, he is grateful to Xiaozong, so does Xiaozong's direct blood relatives have good looks among him
Before his good looks were completely consumed, he didn't want to get things done by those two people.
Therefore, Yun Fenghuang thought about it for a long time, gave up the secret, and contacted Lu Qidao to obtain information about Ji Sheng.
At that time, Jia Pingye could not find any valuable information, so...
Yun Fenghuang frowned in silence, which seemed to Jia Pingye to be under great pressure. After a moment, seeing that the imperial concubine did not shut up, she finally couldn't support it anymore and said, "My dear lady, Mrs. Lu really didn't mention this to me before she was alive." There are too many words about the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother, but there is one thing, I wonder if it is related to me?"
"What's the matter?" Yun Fenghuang originally planned to send her away, but he raised his eyebrows and asked.
Jia Pingye walked forward on her knees and whispered: "In the year when the empress entered the palace, during the summer vacation, didn't Ji Sheng, a common man, say that Dong Bidong's heirs took the concubine to Shanyuan Temple to pray for blessings? ?”
Yun Fenghuang suddenly remembered what Princess Yun'an had said before, whether it was a rumor that she and Ji Minggan spent a whole night together alone in the wild, or whether it was a rumor spread by the common man Ji Sheng himself, so he straightened up a bit, He motioned her to speak carefully.
