"Empress, if you are complaining about me, do you think that I lied to you because I gave birth to Concubine Xian?" Yun Fenghuang said lightly, "But think about it, Concubine Xian is very much outside the palace. , the facts have not yet been determined, so why rush to think that I am unreliable?"
She said confidently, "Besides, even if the Xingning Palace and the empress dowager had no intention of forcing the virtuous concubine's son to you, the eighth prince would not have the status of a legitimate son and would be raised by his own mother. How could he be allowed to die at that time? King, what good will it do to you and your future legitimate son? Tomorrow, the empress dowager, a loving mother, can ask for early canonization from Bidong for the eighth prince, and tomorrow she can ask for more for the eighth prince! By then, even if you The prince from the east of the knee has entered the East Palace, and the eighth prince has all kinds of advantages in his legs, can you feel at ease?"
Gu Zhen's face was as dark as water. He really wanted to ask whether my concubine should be the first to want to do that kind of thing, right
But then I thought about it, although Yun Fenghuang's ambition is clearly written on his face, Queen Mother Yuan is indeed not a fuel-efficient lamp.
Rather than letting one of them support the Eighth Prince and the other support the King of Qin and the Seventh Prince with their favor and ruthlessness, and threaten the status and power of the East Palace when they grow up, it would be better to drive away the wolf and swallow the tiger and join forces with Yun Fenghuang to deal with the Queen Mother Yuan first!
... This does not mean that Gu Zhen is more disgusted with the Queen Mother Yuan, but considering whether the three emperors to the east of Yun Fenghuang's knees and whether the King of Qin was enthroned with the King of Chu, if he and the Queen Mother Yuan cooperated internally and externally to propose the abolition of the King of Qin's title, it is estimated that The king of Chu also wanted to be affected.
Princess Zhaoqing is a girl, and she is good-looking. She is also the eldest daughter of Chunjia, so she has always been favored and treated harshly. There is little point in targeting her, as it will probably annoy Chunjia.
As for the seventh prince, his grandfather was famous as a calf protector.
So regardless of whether Dong Lai could also weaken the other princes, it would be better to stop the eighth prince.
Of course, after blocking the Eighth Prince Dong from being enthroned in advance, the Queen would definitely want to sell Yun Fenghuang again.
In fact, Yun Fenghuang didn't think so. After communicating with the queen about how to use Concubine An to stir up disputes, which made the empress dowager her mother, the empress dowager was in the wrong and it was difficult to ask for extra favors from the eighth prince after receiving Donglai, he left. .
If the harem mistress asked the two of them to decide whether or not to agree, they would act very quickly now that they had reached an agreement.
The next month, all the concubines went to Chongchang Hall to pay their respects. After saluting and briefly talking about some palace affairs, the queen let everyone go. When Qu Hongzhuan was standing on the east steps, she fainted without any warning.
Although that incident was unexpected, because Qu Hongzhuan's status was not that important, everyone watched the queen order people to send him to the side hall and then ordered the imperial doctor to be hired. They left a few words of concern to the queen without asking for money. After hearing this, the imperial concubine resigned.
It turned out that half a month later, I received news that Qu Hongzhuan was pregnant.
The appearance of this poor girl who entered the palace at the same time as Yi Xingen was actually about the same level as Yun Fenghuang, but she was slightly inferior to Yi Xingen.
When she was a concubine in Xuanqing Palace, she was very popular with Yun Fenghuang, but her luck was not very good and she was always suppressed by Yi Xingen.
Ruming was finally happy. Not only did the former leader Yun Fenghuang give her words of encouragement on the spot, but he also sent a large number of rewards to her palace. At the same time, many people who entered the palace were also quite sad, thinking that she had suffered all the hardships and finally wanted to be in the palace. That is the real barrier in the palace.
That's right, for a concubine like Qu Hongzhuan, who was not from a high family background, even if she was lucky enough to become a concubine, her future was still not guaranteed.
That has nothing to do with the emperor's favor. Lord, the rules of the country are that once the emperor dies, all the childless concubines will be sent to the emperor's mausoleum or palace to observe the festival.
At that time, those who were born into a noble family may have family members to take care of them, so they can buy more easily.
If you are not from a good background, then your life, death, honor and disgrace will really depend on the caretaker's legs.
In addition to the main palace, there are also descendants who have children. Even if the children are not the concubines raised by themselves, they are qualified to enjoy the family happiness of following the new queen mother to live in her old age and occasionally reunite with flesh and blood.
Therefore, after Qu Hongzhuan returned to her palace, there was an endless stream of visitors, all of whom came to congratulate her.
That incident was quite lively in the palace for two days, and even Chunjia heard it and laughed.
A few months later, when the concubines asked An Bi to leave as usual, a sudden cry of surprise came from the crowd, and then the red seal script rolled down the steps, waiting for the palace attendants who were waiting for her to rush towards her in panic. When she was helped up, the nearby concubines were surprised to see that the hem of her skirt was already stained with blood!
Not long after, the news that Concubine An pushed down Qu Hongzhuan in public, causing the latter's miscarriage, spread throughout the Sixth Palace!
The entire harem was in turmoil in an instant.
After all, everyone knows that Qu Hongzhuan was born in a humble family, and he is not a good emperor's favorite, not to mention his status. So, even if he was cheated by Concubine An, whether Concubine An was doing it on purpose, that loss would be just that. But just swallow it.
But Qu Hongzhuan is not completely without a backer. She is the person who came out from under the legs of the imperial concubine Yun Fenghuang. She went to Huaqing Palace at three o'clock in the morning and served tea to Yun Fenghuang. She was attentive and considerate, as if When I was a concubine.
She suffered so much at that time, not to mention the loss of the imperial heir who had come so easily, so why didn't she find the Yunfenghuang Gang to help her
Yun Fenghuang was also willing to stand up for her. Over there, Qu Hongzhuan was crying loudly for her missed child, and over there, Concubine Min led her men to kill her in Huzhu Palace!
