"Qi Jiulu came to Cuiyuan a few months ago." Gong Xiangxiao touched his nose without looking at Yun Fenghuang and said, "Father, the past two months have been quite busy with Mr. Lingshan's affairs. For a while, Meiqin is arranging him... Chendi, isn't Chendi more free? So he has a closer relationship with him. Once, Chendi was almost at the bottom of the shooting list. He learned that his skills were good, so Mingyue brought him here. In the palace, if you want to win back a victory... who would have thought that you would encounter Yuan Songlai, who is so naive?"
After saying that, he quickly glanced in the direction of Yun Fenghuang, "I didn't expect that Yun Bin would come at that time."
Emperor Chunjia said calmly: "So, is everything just a coincidence?"
"My brother, I don't think so." Gong Xiangxiao shook his head after hearing this and said, "Is Yuan Songlai being used? Although that person is usually very smart, he will not let you down in public. .”
What Yuan Ke did just now was similar to how the Wang family caused a storm in the city when Xie Fenghuan Hongxing was cheated on the wall. It was not a smart move. After all, if the matter is not resolved and the enemy cannot be pushed eastward, the backlash will be heard. "If things come to pass, will Emperor Chunjia's face look good now?"
The Wang family is a local family with limited vision and knowledge, and it is not surprising that they act stupidly.
For example, Yuan Ke's background was more than one level higher than that of the Wang family, and as the emperor's companion, he had been in and out of the palace for eight years. Logically, he shouldn't have made such a mistake.
Gong Xiangxiao therefore doubted: "Maybe he did it voluntarily, or maybe someone promised him some benefits." Yuan Ke was young and his parents had passed away. Although Uncle Xingning took good care of him, he had many things to do. , How can it be meticulous enough? It will inevitably be taken advantage of by villains."
Emperor Chunjia didn't answer that, so he asked him: "Did I not know anything before Mingyue entered the palace?"
"I don't think I don't know, brother. Although my brother is not the crown prince, he is just like Concubine Lu in the Ming Dynasty." Gong Xiangxiao showed a hint of sadness and said, "If the prince's palace knows, it doesn't mean that my brother knows it. Please tell me if you don't know." Yuan Songlai is making trouble, but I don’t know at all."
The emperor chuckled, not sure whether he believed it or not. He took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Then what am I going to do now?"
Gong Xiangxiao asked tentatively: "My brother will not bring Qi Jiulu into the palace again?"
"That's it?" The emperor sounded a little dissatisfied.
Yun Fenghuang couldn't help but frown, and Gong Xiangxiao said in a pleading tone: "Brother Emperor, what kind of confinement did my brother Ruming spend in the Regent's Palace? Who is unclear inside and outside? My brother, he has a father and a concubine Lu. With Marquis Qingping as his wife, and Mr. Lingshan as his mentor, brother Chen... brother Chen has no other ideas, but it is becoming increasingly clear whether Concubine Lu made mistakes in the past two years... "
"I am not forcing me to do anything to the son of the Qi family." The emperor said coldly, "I am not telling you that Yun Concubine was hired into the palace by the imperial grandmother's decree. With Mingyue making such a fuss, Yuan Songlai is nothing more than me. How can I not do it with him? Go to the Imperial Grandmother and talk to her, lest she hear other people’s words and not be able to figure out the whole story and worry about us in vain?”
Gong Xiangxiao breathed a sigh of relief and said: "My brother, I have not thought carefully about it. Please forgive me for my brother. When will you go to Qingci Palace to ask your brother to show you the east?"
The emperor glanced at the sky outside the palace and said, "If it's not convenient for me, I'll go now."
Then he turned his attention to Yun Fenghuang and said, "Concubine Yun is here too."
Although the empress dowager's identity and age did not require her to avoid foreign men, Emperor Chun Jiadi of Bu Nao still did not take him with him that time. He asked Gong Xiangxiao to send the people away, and then ordered people to bring the emperor's chariot to celebrate. Ci Palace.
"I very much thought that Concubine Yun would imitate the virtues of the virtuous concubines of previous generations." After the imperial chariot arrived, Emperor Chunjia was of course the first to get on board. Then he beckoned towards Yun Fenghuang. Yun Fenghuang didn't say anything and helped him. He grabbed the waiter's legs and walked happily.
The emperor seemed to be smiling but not smiling. After the imperial chariot had walked for a while, he slowly teased her, "I didn't expect that Concubine Yun didn't even mean to refuse, but it surprised me."
"I have already said that I like Bidong the most, but if you are close to Bidong, how can you care about your reputation?" Yun Fenghuang said boldly, "Besides, I am not as good as a concubine of the Ming Dynasty. No, what do you want to do with such a virtuous and virtuous person? You must serve your Majesty well. If your Majesty is outside, I can't reach you even if you ask for anything. How can I serve you?"
Are you kidding me
Taichu Palace is so far away from Qingci Palace, but why should he walk there in the emperor's chariot
The most important thing is not...
My emperor is obviously not a good person, so what's the use of pretending to be virtuous to make me happy
It's no good why he is abusing himself.
The emperor looked at her amusedly: "Is Concubine Yun really articulate?"
It sounds like it's true.
Yun Fenghuang Quan thought he was sincerely praising him and showed a complacent expression: "Otherwise, how could he be in the eyes of the Empress Dowager?"
Then, after a long while, they arrived at Qingci Palace. After the greetings, Emperor Chunjia said nothing. The Empress Dowager who was at the head took a look at the three Dong Dongs, showed a compassionate look, and raised her head towards Yun Fenghuang. He nodded and said: "Then what about the child of Mother Melia? I haven't seen her for some months, and her complexion looks much better. She looks like she is only fifteen or sixteen years old..."
Yun Fenghuang: "..."
Calm down... Calm down... Think on the bright side: When I came to visit her when I first entered the palace, I was sure that the Empress Dowager did not remember what she looked like at all. At that time, the Empress Dowager actually mistakenly thought that she was not Yuan Yuniang. What does that mean? It shows that the old concubine Yue Yue and Ru Ming Yue Jieyu, an old man who has been in the palace for eight years, the Empress Dowager still cannot remember her appearance!
So she was treated like a concubine in front of the Empress Dowager, and she really couldn't say anything to congratulate her... What a ghost!
Why should he compare so unfavorably with Yuan Yuniang! ! !
Yun Fenghuang's face was expressionless, and he felt deeply that he had not been able to work hard enough, and he was a little drifting during that period. If that didn't work, he wouldn't be able to pass the confinement... That damn palace!
Emperor Chunjia coughed dryly to hide his smile: "I'd like to thank the emperor's grandmother, that's the concubine Yun from the Queen's Palace, who was granted the title of Baolin when she first entered the palace. She will indeed be old enough next year."
"...Is the Ai family really blind?" The Queen Mother was also a little embarrassed, and immediately asked, "Why did you suddenly bring that child here? Is there something wrong?"
What Yan Dong meant was that it didn't matter that someone who had just been granted the title of Baolin and was now a concubine was brought to Qingci Palace for what
Emperor Chunjia said: "If nothing happened, how could you dare to disturb the emperor's grandmother? But it's not like that."
He immediately gave an overview of Yun Fenghuang's birth history, and then changed the section about whether he was stuffed into the invitation list after the revelation of Yi Guogong and his daughter, but it was changed to read that Yun Ju and his wife felt sorry for their niece and took the initiative to accept her as their adopted daughter. And informed Duke Yi that the Yun family genealogy was officially entered.
During the three years that Yun Fenghuang was in the imperial capital, she and Yun Qingman had a deep relationship and couldn't bear to be separated. Duke Yi felt sorry for their two children, so he recommended them both to Concubine Shu, who then recommended them to the Empress Dowager...
After hearing this, the Empress Dowager sighed and said sadly: "When people get old, they are no longer useful. The Ai family doesn't know anything about these things. If Mingyue hadn't told us, it would have spread all over the city. Only then will the Ai family know."
"The Imperial Grandmother is in her prime, and there are many things that your grandson points to you." Emperor Chunjia comforted him softly, "How can I ask for such words? In fact, those are not trivial matters, otherwise the Queen and Concubine Shu would also I must have told you before. Please tell me if Mingyue made such a fuss, my grandson was worried that someone would add fuel to his jealousy and damage the reputation of the royal family. Originally... "
"Is what I did wrong?" the Empress Dowager interrupted him and said harmoniously, "Yuan Songlai is about to be crowned after all, why is he so confused? It involves the ban, the concubine, otherwise he, a foreign man, can Did you say it casually? The Ai family knows that the Emperor has always been gentle in temperament, so he shouldn't be too manipulative of the people around him."
Emperor Chunjia bowed his head and received the instruction: "If the imperial grandmother said it, my grandson will definitely scold Yuan Songlai when he comes back."
He explained further, "Yuan Songlai is the younger brother of Melia. Melia seems to be pregnant, and her grandson is worried..."
"...If that's the case, let me figure it out." The Empress Dowager frowned, not satisfied with his attitude, but Yuan Niang's pregnancy was indeed a very important bargaining chip. After all, if there is a daughter of the Ji family in the middle palace of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chunjia is not pro-government. There has been a lot of discussion outside. The emperor has no heirs. It is difficult not to make people speculate that it is not because the emperor has few heirs, but because of the lack of heirs. Ji's legs were vicious and she did not allow concubines other than Ji's daughters to contribute to the royal family.
At the beginning of the year, the reason why the Empress Dowager went to Dongyi in person and whether to recruit or select the emperor was not only because she was really worried that there would be no successors to the royal family, but she also did not want to show it to the people of Tiandong.
At that time, Emperor Chunjia brought up a pregnant concubine as a cover. Although the Empress Dowager thought that Yuan Songlaihe should take a good long memory, she had to take a step back to see if she was unhappy in the end and her eyes fell on Yun Fenghuang. , "As the emperor's concubine, you should be chaste and self-possessed, why don't you always run forward? What are you talking about?"
Without waiting for Yun Fenghuang to argue, he said to Emperor Chunjia, "Well, Yun Fei was the emperor's favorite in the past two months. The Ai family didn't punish her, and just told her not to go to the front... Originally, the previous dynasty didn't This is not a place where concubines should set foot!"
"Emperor Grandma, the reason why Concubine Yun appeared in Taichu Palace was not because of her own wishes, but because she was called over by Ming Hui Jinyun and others." Emperor Chunjia went to say, "Maybe it's because of the same age, the sisters are very She likes to play with Concubine Yun... Mingyue Jinyun once gave Concubine Yun cakes made by the cook in her mother's harem."
When the Empress Dowager's granddaughters were mentioned, the Empress Dowager's expression softened slightly and she said, "No? Minghui and the others are pitiful if they are locked up in the palace for the whole month. Alas, in that case, let them go."
He looked at Yun Fenghuang again and said calmly, "The granddaughters of the Ai family asked me to accompany them. I just need to accompany them properly, but don't think about those things that I shouldn't have!"
Yun Fenghuang lowered his head: "I obey."
Even if the matter ends there, at least it ends in front of the Empress Dowager. After receiving Donglai, the Empress Dowager no longer paid attention to Yun Fenghuang and Emperor Chunjia, but moved her legs to call Gong Xiangxiao to her side. Yan asked him about the current situation in the regent's palace.
The emperor and Yun Fenghuang served as guests for a stick of incense, and the cordial conversation between the Empress Dowager and Gong Xiangxiao came to an end, showing their intention to see off the guests.
The three of them left Qingci Palace. Gong Xiangxiao was accompanied by palace attendants, and the emperor took Yun Fenghuang to Yanfu Palace.
After all, it involves the harem, and after communicating with the Empress Dowager, you should always tell the Empress that you don’t agree
Yun Fenghuang walked away from the emperor's chariot, with a heavy face, and quickly thought about the wrong strategy. After all, the truth behind her entering the palace was not a card used by the queen to control Duke Yi's palace in the next month, or was it a bargaining chip for surrendering in the first place? First, it turned out that Mingyue Yuan Songlai was making such a fuss, and the emperor took advantage of the opportunity to let her get through in front of the Empress Dowager. Then how could Empress Ji and others make a fuss about it and question Duke Yi Guo's father and daughter for bullying the emperor? crime? !
Her eyes touched the emperor who was beside her with his eyes closed, and she couldn't help grinding her teeth secretly: At that time, Qiufu couldn't tell who was instigating Yuan Songlai, so she didn't want to go to Hundong!
Is it really a good idea for Yuan Niang to be happy? Even if the Empress Dowager saw through the truth first and wanted to vent her anger on Yuan Songlai, the emperor blocked her in the guise of being an heir!
Aren't you afraid that Gong Xiangxiao is a fool? !
Even if Yuan Songlai didn't come out tomorrow, he was so sure that everything would be fine? !
Well, wait a minute, maybe Gong Xiangxiao is stupid, but Yun Fenghuang doesn't believe that Qi Jiulu is also that ignorant.
So what's going on
