"Two months ago, my mother came to the palace and told me the news that my eldest aunt was ill. My eldest aunt has always loved Brother Twenty-one the most. Usually, when she is sick, Brother Twenty-one will always be there to take care of her." Yunfeng Huang lay next to the emperor's ear and whispered softly, "At that time, Brother Twenty-one was not here, so I couldn't help but feel empty in my heart. Although I didn't admit that I was seriously ill, I couldn't get up because I was dragging it on. .”
After saying this, he carefully observed Chunjia's expression.
Chunjia asked gently and caringly: "Are you serious? Can you call the imperial doctor?"
"Thank you for your trouble." Yun Fenghuang was a little disappointed, thinking that he should refuse the request, but after thinking about it, he said the words, "No... The doctor said, the eldest aunt is not mentally ill, as the saying goes. Heart ailments require heart medicine. It would be best if Brother Twenty-One goes back to pay a visit. What do you think?"
That was the method she had negotiated with Mr. Xie, and asked Xie Wuzheng to go back and visit her on the pretext that her biological mother was ill.
After all, the north is close to Wei He. If the Ming Dynasty mistakenly sent troops to Wei He, banditry occurred in the border area in the past few months. At that time, I begged Xie Wu to fight over it. Relying on Xie's local connections, he always You can find some "unexpected things" to give Xie Wuzheng some credit.
Even if Chunjia refuses to admit his fault when the time comes, at least his reputation will eventually reach his legs.
There is nothing better than Xie Wuzheng being locked up in the fiefdom of Princess Sui'an and being unable to do anything.
It is rare for the Xie family to have such a unicorn son, but he would just circle around the golden branches and jade leaves of the Tian family.
"No?" Chunjia pondered.
That made Yun Fenghuang's heart beat fast, and he stared at him intently.
"After Sui'an got married, she has been with her consort, but her fiefdom is far away from the Northland. If the consort doesn't come home to visit, we are afraid that the couple will be separated for many months." Chunjia thought for a while, and then said slowly, " That’s not very appropriate.”
Yun Fenghuang went to say: "It won't take long to come and go quickly. Besides, it's been a while since the eldest princess went east to the fiefdom, and she hasn't seen the concubine for a long time. Why not take advantage of that opportunity, and let the mother Wouldn’t it be nice for the girls to get together?”
"It's not good for a young couple to separate after all, especially in Sui'an because of the special situation. I'm afraid they'll be in a bad mood after being separated from the consort, so the concubine can be comforted." When Chunjia said that, Yun Fenghuang thought there was no hope. But he followed suit from the east, "Why don't you let Sui'an go visit your parents-in-law together?"
"I would like to thank you for your kindness!" Yun Fenghuang didn't even dare to say a polite word, because he was afraid that he would mention it. When he refused Dong a little, he immediately agreed, and then he dared to say that he would make the family happy. Princess, I will never wrong Sui'an.
The next month, she specially announced the Jiang family to the palace and told her about the matter: "Be sure to make it clear to the family. It doesn't matter how much you talk about it, but if the eldest princess is not smart after she went to the palace, she will Otherwise, there is nothing I can do to protect them!"
"I can rest assured that the experience of the past two years on the 21st has taught everyone in the clan that they will not dare to mess around again." Jiang nodded, "Besides, since the matter is serious, he will personally When we go back to the town, we must not let the eldest princess feel any slight to the east of the palace."
She followed her words and packed her bags and left within two days.
The month before Weifeng left, Jiang specially sent a message to the palace, asking Yun Fenghuang to take Dong to act more safely: "For some reason, in the past two months, Weifeng always had nightmares. He thought about it, can I ask for it? My brothers are encountering difficulties in the army, please ask me for help... We have no involvement in the affairs of the army, and there is nothing we can do. But since I am in the palace, since I have the status and power of Ru Ming, there is no need to worry about anything. Everything It’s not a bad idea to figure it out slowly.”
His voice lowered, "I'll look at Bidong's status, and whether he has been able to endure it for eight years since he took charge of the government. I want to marry Bidong, but I can't be too different in character, right?"
In fact, Jiang wanted Yun Fenghuang to seek a post at that time.
At first, she encouraged her daughter to move forward bravely and asked whether she was afraid that Yun Fenghuang would not want to live anymore. Later, Yun Fenghuang no longer had that intention. The two royal heirs are waiting to become concubines in the future, which is very stable.
That doesn't mean that the Jiang family has no ambition, but it doesn't mean that she really doesn't dare to be a mother, the only living daughter of Xi Dong.
Neither the Xie family nor the Jiang family belonged to any famous family, so Yun Fenghuang relied on himself in the palace.
Whenever she loses her Sacred Heart, her family, not to mention helping her, would even beg to be beaten back to her original shape.
In that situation, and her daughter's situation was very favorable, Jiang really felt that it was better to be still than to move.
Isn't Ruming's status and power already very good
The emperor doesn't want to give it, so why force it
Anyway, King Qin and the others did not deny Yun Fenghuang's biological flesh and blood, and gave them what they had worked hard to obtain. Not to mention the price and risks that had to be paid in the process, after the matter was accomplished, who could guarantee that Yun Fenghuang would not become The second Queen Mother Yuan, the emperor who was trained by one leg was so angry that she wanted to watch the young and beautiful successors go and enjoy the results
On the other hand, as a concubine, she was pressured by the court and filial piety, and she was afraid that her son would turn against her if she could take advantage of her.
But she didn't dare to tell Yun Fenghuang directly.
It's not that she's afraid that her daughter will blame her, but that Yun Fenghuang has had her own ideas since she was a child. If her family doesn't stop her from deciding something, she's afraid that she will go further and further.
Jiang could try another way to persuade her daughter: "The centipede is dead but not stiff. Even if the Gu family is rejected by the emperor, the Ding clan will be completely defeated in three or two months if it has been around for many years. I think when the Ji family was slaughtered Isn't it simple? But the remnants of the Ji family are still running around everywhere. Although the Imperial City Si Dong has made great efforts, there are still fish that have slipped through the net. I have no choice but to be helpless, so I don't need to rush for quick success. "
Yun Fenghuang really listened to what she said. He nodded slightly and promised not to act hastily, but to be sure before attacking.
I don’t know if she was influenced by Jiang. Before Jiang left, Yun Fenghuang didn’t feel anything. After she left, Yun Fenghuang actually had nightmares for several months, always dreaming about Xie Fenghuan. Ms. Xie, some not-so-good things happened. Although she didn't believe in illusory ghosts and gods, Dong Dong had been in low spirits for several months, so she couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.
That month Chunjia came over and saw her looking weak, so he stretched out his legs to check her forehead and asked her if she was not feeling well in her bones.
"It's strange to say." Yun Fenghuang took advantage of the situation and said, "When my mother left two months ago, she came to the palace specifically to tell me that she dreamed of some bad things. In those two months, I also almost… "
She politely asked the emperor if her brother was in the army, would there be any loss
If there is, please let the emperor say it, she can bear it.
"Is there some report there?" Chunjia pondered for a while after hearing the words, and said, "It's just that the government affairs have been busy in the past two months, but I didn't read it carefully. Well, I'll let someone go read it and see if there is anything If there is no relevant report, please tell me again."
He gave Yan Yin a wink.
In fact, it was something that didn't happen there. After all, the Xie family's children were of low status and were not qualified to report to the emperor specifically about their life and death.
Yan Yin went to ask whether Sun Yu, the concubine's natal brother and a son of the Xie Jiang family, had always been registered in the Imperial City Division.
After a while, he returned to Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion to apologize to Yun Fenghuang, saying that in the past few months, due to sudden encounters in the wild, the Xie family had indeed killed several of their children in battle, and those who had died early in the morning, such as Ming Xianmai, More than ten people from the two families died in this war.
Such a large and prosperous family, with Yun Fenghuang's heart calm and prosperous, could afford to die for ten people.
Especially after listening to Yan Yin's specific number of people, they are basically distant relatives... If she is a close relative, I think Dingbei Army will take some care of her out of respect for her face.
The only close relative was his cousin, whom he had rarely met, so there was not much affection. Yun Fenghuang felt that he could bear the loss.
She wondered if she had been fooled by what Jiang said, that's all
However, he was very skilled in making sentimental people, so the emperor was very sad about the death of his relatives.
Chunjia comforted her, and finally mentioned the progress of the war casually, because a gold mine was discovered during the pursuit of Hele, and now Xifa and the Dingbei army were no longer in a hurry to kill Hele, and preferred to dig it first. mine.
It turns out that contact can cost money, but encountering a gold mine can make a fortune, which is naturally a good thing.
The question is no, because of the gold mine, the relationship between Xifa and Dingbei Army Ruming is a bit subtle...
There was nothing that could be done about it. In Xifa's view, although the gold mine was not discovered by Hele, it was located outside the borders of Weihe, so of course it did not belong to his quasi-Khan who avenged his father!
But in the view of the Dingbei Army, although the gold mine was not discovered by Hele and was located outside Weihe, without their help, the grass on Xifa's grave that Hele had beaten him early in the morning would be green, and he was worried about the gold mine. From a gold mine
It was agreed upon when the troops were sent out that the Dingbei Army would have a share of all the spoils of war, and of course the gold mines were among them!
Many of them, far from their homeland, come to the grasslands to fight for Xifa. Is there any problem with digging some mines
The Dingbei Army felt no problem in Dongdu.
Due to the hindrance of Hele's remnants, Xifa has not fallen out with the Dingbei Army for the time being, but he has continued to make small moves. Someone in Leg Didong has even suggested that he abandon his father's hatred and get back together with Hele, first kill the Dingbei Army together and then divide the gold mine. .
The news was discovered by spies from the Imperial City Department, and they reported it back to the Imperial Capital. Naturally, the emperor and his ministers would not ignore it.
Chunjia is now discussing with his ministers how to help Xifa's brother or nephew replace him
It doesn't matter which of those brothers, nephews, and nephews is in power.
The key is that he is sensible and obedient at a young age and knows that Wei He's mistakes are good.
Yun Fenghuang smiled and praised Chun Jiaxiong for his rough and arduous strategy, but his heart felt like a hundred claws scratching his heart, thinking about such a great contribution, please thank Wu Zheng... Well, even if Xie Wu Zheng is in court, she can't do that. Can't do it.
Just think about it.
Chunjia said again: "That's wrong. In two months, the queen and I will reward her with some things and Minghui. Since the consort is away for a long time, she will inevitably be lonely. The queen and I will take more care of her."
Yun Fenghuang wondered if Minghui had caused trouble again
She smiled and agreed, and the next month someone summoned Mrs. Qingshu.
Cui Lianye was so frightened that she begged to die, thinking that she was begging to settle the score for the fight between the second prince and the others.
Fortunately, Yun Fenghuang didn't mention that, so he asked her if she had ever been online with Princess Minghui.
"I passed through my home and managed to find a Dongren who looked similar to a descendant of the Ji family. I detained his family members and asked him to pretend to be a descendant of the Ji family and go to the dowry house in the east of the eldest princess's palace to join Zhuangzi." Cui Cui Lianye breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and went to report, "After the eldest princess's palace master found out, he asked someone to take him in, which shows that the eldest princess's palace master really cares about the Ji family and does not miss Bidong's ruthlessness in those years! "
Yun Fenghuang muttered: "Very good?"
Cui Lianye felt embarrassed when he noticed that she was not satisfied: "...No more."
There was no way, when Ji Sheng, a common man, was not in favor of his mother and the empress dowager, although she had a good relationship with Ming Hui, she probably tried to find ways to please the golden man, lest her mother and empress dowager would find trouble.
Minghui was extremely happy and comfortable at that time, and she didn't care much about her brother's harem. She and her two direct cousins, Ji Lingzi and Ji Muzi, rarely played together, let alone other concubines.
The relationship between Cui Lianye and the eldest princess is about one-sided flattery in exchange for the occasional kindness from the other party.
Later, Ji Sheng disappeared, and Minghui's status seemed to be noble but was embarrassing in the end. Cui Lianye was the one who wanted the most, no, it should be said that the entire harem was retreating steadily due to Yun Fenghuang's wanton control.
Too busy to take care of himself, Cui Lianye would not even think about managing a relationship with a eldest princess who has clearly lost power.
If Ming Yun Feng Huang begged her to cheat Ming Hui, she really worked hard!
"It's just such a thing. How can you care about the cruelty of Your Majesty Dong in wronging the eldest princess's palace?" Yun Fenghuang frowned and scolded unhappily, "I don't want to think that the eldest princess's palace is famous. He was young and ignorant, and whether that person took refuge with Zhuangzi as a dowry, or whether he took refuge directly with the palace master. Does this mean that the eldest princess, the palace master, has ulterior motives? Who knows if Zhuangzi’s people are not good, and they have harmed the eldest daughter. Princess Palace East?"
How could Chunjia not understand Minghui's preference for Ji
But because of the important status of the late emperor's legitimate daughter and the serious and minor crimes, Chunjia would definitely not care about it.
He has been running a benevolent persona for so many years, and Ming Hui's little manipulation is unlikely to anger him.
What Yun Fenghuang wants is not just such trivial accusations, but also the reason why Minghui truly secedes from Tiandong!
Cui Lianye said with embarrassment that it was more difficult to handle that kind of thing: "It is said that she made a fuss in the east of the second palace, and the Yun family went to the palace to find Bhidong to cry about it. But later she went to the palace of the Empress Dowager. After a trip here, he calmed down a lot after returning. Even the Yun family didn’t say anything about the master of the palace after that.”
Minghui may not have a brain, but she can't stand it. Her direct royal grandmother has brains and is willing to take care of her stupid granddaughter.
So, how easy is it to trick Ming Hui
Yun Fenghuang became impatient when he heard this: "What if it's a simple matter that requires my high position? Am I a slave that I don't have any orders for? Besides, if you're guilty of something like that, I'd better ask for your permission." Why don't you use your heart to do things?! I beg you, if you really don't want to do things with your heart, just say it clearly and I will go back and find someone else to do it!"
He added, "I come from a wealthy family and look like a sensible person, but I turn out to be so confused!"
Cui Lianye: "..."
Doesn't that mean she fabricated evidence to accuse Ming Hui
If it were someone else, she would have done it because of the fear of the wrong concubine.
But what is Minghui’s identity
Chunjia didn't dare to openly pay her the wrong money, so who did she think she was
She felt that confinement was too difficult! ! !
