Queen Gu Zhen first heard that Concubine De and Concubine De were aggressively going to Yuzhen Palace to trouble Concubine Wan. She was a little surprised and confused. She was not sure whether Concubine Wan was the trigger. Did she want to burn her own head
After watching for a while, I found that the imperial concubine had actually targeted the second concubine for trouble, and I felt relieved.
Just as she was secretly happy, Concubine Jing arrived at that time. When she inquired again, the emperor didn't even take the time to see Concubine Jing and her son. Was his attitude very useful
The queen didn't want to care about that.
Then he said: "I said that the imperial concubine is deliberately looking for trouble. How can that be true? She seems to be on confinement. I am not an old man in the palace. Speaking of which, it is only a few months later than the imperial concubine entered the palace. I should know that the imperial concubine has eaten in her early years. She has suffered so much that she has not been able to give Bidong an heir for many years. This birth is also very difficult... By then she will not have time to take care of herself, so where will she find the energy to look for us? It is impossible to say that we have offended her. I don’t know myself! Then please tell me about us! Not to mention that the imperial concubine’s position is ours, should we respect the imperial concubine? Even if the imperial concubine is very good at confinement, how can we But do that? I have given birth to children, so why can’t I be considerate of some noble concubines?"
Concubine Jing almost wanted to vomit blood, and knowing that the queen was deliberately making things difficult, she could cry out and complain, saying that she had never abided by the palace rules and that she had never been disrespectful to the concubine.
She knew that if she said that directly, it would be difficult to get the queen to side with her, but fortunately, she had made the emperor relent before and specially took care of the thirteenth prince.
It's useless for the little prince to pay Chunjia by mistake, because Chunjia doesn't care at all.
It can be used to mispay the queen, which is quite effective.
Concubine Jing personally took the Thirteenth Prince into her arms, and without mentioning the reason why the concubine was looking for trouble, she framed the queen. She cried to the queen with runny noses and tears: "... Although I don't know where I offended you. Concubine, please, since the concubine has an attack, it must be my concubine’s fault! He is only thirteen, how can he stand such a fuss? If the concubine, please teach me a lesson. The body, the concubine is absolutely nothing, but the empress clearly knows that it took many years for the imperial concubine to have the blood and flesh of the fifteenth prince. The concubine entered the palace only a few months later than the imperial concubine, so there is only one of the thirteen! What if? Thirteen has three advantages and two disadvantages, how can I live in the East?"
"What I said makes no sense. Is it possible that the noble concubine is very good at murdering the thirteenth prince?" The queen frowned slightly when she heard this. She was a little unhappy at first, feeling that Concubine Jing was so bold that she hugged the prince to threaten her.
I wonder if Yun Fenghuang would have a headache if she did this.
But Concubine Jing is not favored!
Just as she was about to send him away, Concubine Jing was cruel and secretly pinched the Thirteenth Prince.
The little prince, who had been sleeping peacefully due to running back and forth, suddenly grinned and burst into tears!
Concubine Jing also cried, and she knelt down eastward, with her knees in front, begging the Queen to save the lives of their mother and son... The Queen really didn't feel sorry for Concubine Jing's fate, but the Thirteenth Prince...
The queen looked at the little child, and she subconsciously thought of King Chu's past. She knew clearly in her heart that Yun Fenghuang's reason for finding trouble was not framed by her. The queen was originally upright, so she didn't deny it. The kind of person who often plays tricks and plots, and never mentions her fault when the person who is suffering is in front of her face, but she cries and pleads with her child... The queen feels a little guilty.
After hesitating for a moment, Gu Zhen sighed: "Then I will send someone to talk to the imperial concubine and see if there is any misunderstanding."
Just as the Queen is a kind-hearted master, Yun Fenghuang is not.
She didn't even meet the palace attendants sent by the Queen in person, so she asked Chie to go out and answer: "His wife said that the Queen's kindness was appreciated, so there was no misunderstanding between his wife and Concubine Wan and Concubine Jing. . I very much ask the Queen to please not beg because Concubine Wan and Concubine Jing come from a famous family and are biased!"
Gu Zhen felt unhappy and did not dare to have any quarrel with Xuanqing Palace when the imperial concubine was still in her confinement period... After all, there was a lot of talk about the dead soldiers of the Dingbei Army in the previous dynasty, and Gu family Ruming had no choice but to keep a low profile.
She didn't even dare to show her disgraceful resentment, so she had no choice but to tell Concubine Jing that she couldn't mediate and let her find her own way.
What can Concubine Jing think of
After discussing with Concubine Wan, she felt that Concubine Wan was invincible, so it would be better if she surrendered.
The next month we came together to apologize.
Yun Fenghuang didn't say anything to them, so he had people drive them away.
At first, the second concubine wanted to play the kind of drama where she couldn't afford to kneel down for a long time, but the palace servants sent by Yun Fenghuang told them: "Why don't you two queens leave quickly? The noble concubine had some headaches before. At that time, I heard that He said that you two refused to leave after coming, and you are getting more and more angry, so I am afraid that you need to call the doctor!"
How dare that guy dare to cheat? Are you afraid that if you ask the defendant to go to Chunjia, they will be found guilty of murdering the emperor's heir
You have to leave in vain.
They went back in despair, but things were not over yet. Concubine De and the others went to the two palaces to cause trouble.
At first, a large group of people took turns running here and there, so that the second concubine could catch her breath. But only two days later, Yi Xingen proposed that the troops should be divided into two groups to prevent Yuzhen Palace and Yanlan Palace from having a moment of peace!
Because: "Concubine Wan and Concubine Jing have not given birth to children themselves, but they want to take advantage of the opportunity to harm the concubine when she is giving birth. It is simply crazy! In this case, why do they have a good confinement period?"
Qu Hongzhuan once again came up short in the competition for favor. He was so angry that he almost wanted to vomit blood, but he had to support the proposal.
Concubine De knew that both of them were direct descendants of Yun Fenghuang, so she was not sure whether Yun Fenghuang's intentions were involved and did not dare to contradict her. Otherwise, Concubine Wan and Concubine Jing would be in bad luck... When Concubine De went to Yuzhen Palace the month before last, She accidentally fell down and sprained her ankle. It was not an accident, but Qu Hongzhuan who came with her insisted that Wan Feidong had poisoned her legs, which made a big fuss.
Unfortunately, Chunjia was in the previous dynasty and had no idea about the harem for the time being. As for the queen, she felt that the concubine who was born prematurely and was very good at confinement was a hot potato.
She had been embarrassed when she sent people to intercede before, but she didn't have to mind her own business at that time.
Just... I simply used the excuse of being afraid of summer, stopped at the Sixth Palace to pay my respects, and drank the liquid at the gate of Yanfu Palace, pretending that I didn't know anything!
No, summer had officially entered at that time, and He Gong should have been spending the summer at Qishan Palace.
Chunjia not only canceled the summer vacation next year because she wanted to accompany Yun Fenghuang, but also recalled Uncle Zhaowu because of the matter of identifying the dead soldiers of the Northern Army. But it is hard to say whether Zhaowu Bo Ruming will be obedient when he leads his troops.
It would be more convenient to go to the palace for message transmission and order circulation, so it is omitted.
Then, the emperor and empress didn't pay attention to it. How could other concubines dare to show their faces
Everyone held their breath and concentrated, fearing that the imperial concubine might be upset, so it would be best if she didn't vent her anger to the point where they would die.
Concubine Wan and Concubine Jing were isolated and helpless. According to reports from Didong people, they had become much haggard in just a few days and looked very pitiful... Of course, the Qing people would not tell Yun Fenghuang that the second concubine deserved pity, but only said that the second concubine's natal family Cruel: "The palace people feel pity for them. The mother-in-law's family feels like they are dead... they actually regard outsiders as more important than their own family."
Yun Fenghuang had a very ugly expression on his face and snorted: "Well, since those two families don't know how to flatter each other, let's just fake it and send the second concubine away! After all, I have narrowly escaped death for the second time. If a decent person takes responsibility, wouldn't it mean that everyone in the palace can step on me?!"
She had just made such a determination, but who knew that someone from the palace would come running over and tell them: "Empress, Concubine Wan is hanging from a beam!!!"
"There is no one left?" Yun Fenghuang looked cold and sounded impatient.
The palace man was startled and went to say: "It is said that Baoyuan people were very relieved when they found out. Ru Mingzheng summoned the imperial doctor to save him."
"She asked her seriously and went like that. I respect her for her courage." Yun Fenghuang was indifferent and sneered, "Since he is not dead, it can be seen that he is not greedy for the world, but what is he pretending to do? Spread the word, Let's just say that I was shocked when I heard the news. Ruming had a headache and fever, and felt uncomfortable all over the body! Let the imperial hospital transfer the movable imperial doctors to serve the emperor, the empress, and the emperors. Summon everyone here!"
The palace messenger who sent the message was a little dumbfounded, and Dongzhi asked: "Where is Concubine Wan...?"
"Am I stupid?" Dan E kicked him next to him and scolded, "What is Concubine Wan's identity? How can she compare with the Empress Dowager, Bidong, and the Empress, who are very close to Bidong? If not, the empress should be fine It’s nothing more than a son, but since the empress needs it, how dare the imperial doctor ignore the violation of the empress’s body and go to seduce Concubine Wan?!”
That leg made the Sixth Palace look at him with suspicion.
After all, it has been known since the establishment of the dynasty that all the heads of the palace are from noble families. Although they are not outright gentlemen and cannot make bad noises, they are somewhat concerned about their appearance.
Like Yun Fenghuang torturing Concubine Wan naked to death... Especially when everyone knew that Concubine Wan had not offended Yun Fenghuang, it was really frightening.
All the concubines were trembling for a while, but Queen Fei was the one who really had a headache.
Gu Zhen no longer had the strength to sigh: "...Before, I could tell that whether the concubine was that kind of person or not, it was just a matter of telling Concubine Wan and Concubine Jing clearly. Ruming that she forced Concubine Wan to death They all hanged themselves to death, but they refused to give up. They even asked the imperial doctor who was treating Concubine Wan to be summoned away. So... was it intentional to force Concubine Wan to death! If I continue to pretend to be deaf and dumb, I will go to court in the future. How should the harem view me? If not, the imperial concubine and Your Majesty Dong Ruming may be very angry, but how can they listen?"
It's okay if she doesn't listen if she asks for permission. At most, she can just talk about it once.
I'm afraid that not only will the imperial concubine not be able to hear her, but she will also be angry with her and make the Qu family and the Yi family run into trouble in the Chongchang Palace, then...
"Mother, if it really doesn't work, why don't we just call it a disease?" The two men also felt uncomfortable, and after a short discussion, they said, "Maybe we can report it to the Emperor?"
"I should have complained of illness before I knew it." The queen secretly regretted, "Does it seem like she is avoiding the imperial concubine if she claims to be sick now?"
Although she did not want to avoid the imperial concubine's sharp influence, as a middle palace, she also wanted to save face...
As for reporting to Chunjia, "Although Bidong has a lot of things to do, Yan Yin and the others have a sense of proportion. Such things cannot be reported to me. If Bidong doesn't say anything, I will go and say it specifically. It seems to be wrong." Like a noble concubine, I look stingy."
The emperor had repeatedly told Ziren that she was incompetent and could not be the queen.
If she asked whether to tell her this time, she would probably ask the emperor to tell her that. And, as she said, if the emperor really wanted to interfere with the imperial concubine, then there would probably be imperial attendants rushing to Xuanqing Palace.
Since there is no such thing, it is obvious that Chunjia deliberately condoned the imperial concubine's behavior... Then why did the empress join in to be punished
Maybe he would be used as a shield by the emperor, for example, if he stopped Concubine Dong's nonsense and said it was the queen's fault... Anyway, Gu Zhen felt that what the emperor said was very reasonable. Maybe he or Keke should not be the queen's material...
But there is nothing I can do, she has already stayed in that position, and she doesn’t want to ask her to abdicate in favor of someone better.
At this moment, she can rack her brains and think about whether there is a way to preserve her dignity as a queen without offending the emperor and the noble concubine
At that time, someone suggested in a low voice: "Please... can you please go talk to the Empress Dowager?"
