Chapter 118: Chaos

The latest chapter of "Xianlu Fanghua".

The skin is like condensed snow, the eyes are like autumn water, the posture is graceful, and the gentle posture penetrates from her words and deeds, not delicate, not pretentious, only natural gentleness, this is Concubine Zhen.

It is no wonder that he was able to come from behind, confront the north and south of the peerless queen Yelu, and occupy a place in the court, harem and Zhao Zhen's heart.

At this moment, this concubine Zhen is sitting in front of the painting, raising her pen to outline, and the smooth lines leap onto the paper, and a picture of the lotus pond in full bloom is quietly taking shape.

"It's done!" a chuckle came.

Concubine Zhen's pupils shrank, she was shocked, then smiled, turned around and said dissatisfiedly: "Your Majesty, why do you walk like a cat! ”

"Did you scare Concubine Ai?" asked Zhao Zhen with a light smile.

"Of course, the concubine was taken aback by you!" Concubine Zhen's mouth pursed slightly, and she said dissatisfiedly.

The palace maid Hua Ling came in with tea, and Concubine Zhen hurriedly took the teacup and served it to Zhao Zhen in person.

……

On the second day, Zhao Zhen went to court, and the third prince Zhao Ming took the third prince concubine Lin to the Zhaoyang Hall of Concubine Zhen.

After the greetings, Zhao Ming went to the Qianqing Palace to pay a visit, and Hua Ling, Yun Ling, Feng Chime and others withdrew from the palace with the palace maids of Zhaoyang Palace, and the palace door was opened to avoid all the possibility of eavesdropping.

"How is the prince's body now?" Concubine Zhen looked at the bright and flamboyant daughter-in-law in front of her softly, and asked with a smile in her eyes, she was very satisfied with this daughter-in-law, she was born in the Wei State Mansion, she is the daughter of the Duke of Guo, and her appearance, ability, and talent are all first-class.

As for the prince's illness, Donggong concealed it very strictly, and she, the palace concubine, who ignored everything on the surface and did not develop the power of the harem, did not know.

"It seems to be getting worse!" Lin said with a frown. Although the status of the secret agents of the royal palace in the East Palace is important, after the crown prince fell ill, the East Palace was controlled by the queen's people! Even if their people knew the situation, they could not pass it on. Thinking of this, I complained a little bit about my mother. As the favorite concubine of my father, isn't it normal to cultivate a little manpower and pay attention to the queen's movements? Isn't that the same with the concubine in the harem? How can she have no power at all?

When Concubine Zhen saw her daughter-in-law's expression, she instantly understood her daughter-in-law's thoughts, and couldn't help but smile slightly: "Ayuan, do you also think that the mother concubine is very important in the emperor's heart?"

"Of course, who doesn't know in the court and harem!" Lin Ayuan said as a matter of course.

"Silly child, the reason why the mother concubine is favored by the emperor is because the mother concubine has no power in the harem, and only has the support of General Lingyun in the court. There is no threat to the queen either. ”

Lin Ayuan was surprised, although she didn't say anything, her expression clearly expressed her surprise.

"The only thing the emperor really loves in his heart is the queen. Therefore, all the palace concubines who were once hostile to the queen have fallen out of favor! Up to now, all the palace concubines who have huge power in the harem and may pose a threat to the queen have fallen out of favor! The reason why the mother concubine is favored is because she has no power. ”

Lin Ayuan was completely surprised now!

"I think at the beginning, the mother didn't understand this truth, but then she slowly figured out the taste, which dismissed the power. Not long after, the emperor began to stay in the Zhaoyang Palace frequently. Later, there were palace concubines who were favored, but they all fell out of favor later! ”

Is the emperor such a seed of infatuation?

But why is the queen not favored now? It is said that the emperor and queen only see each other twice a month.

That is, on the fifteenth day of the new year, the emperor will stay in the Chengqian Hall of Kunning Palace, why is this?

"No matter what the emperor and queen are out of harmony. In short, the queen's status in the emperor's heart is unquestionable, so I must not do anything that threatens the queen. ”

Lin Ayuan nodded, indeed. For the concubine, getting the emperor's favor is the most important thing.

"The prince's affairs, let the emperor not be in a hurry, and don't make any small moves. Concubine Zhen advised.

"Are we going to do nothing?" Lin Ayuan was a little unwilling.

"Silly boy, the emperor is upset at this time. What you do is what you do wrong, so not moving is the best option. Wait for the prince's affairs to come to fruition. Our days are going to be better!" Concubine Zhen said lightly with a sip of tea.

"What's the result? Do you want to wait for the prince to recover?"

"You stupid boy! Don't worry! The prince won't be better. Concubine Zhen said softly. The crown prince is certain to die. She was sure.

Could it be that there are other people working on it? How does the concubine know? Who is doing it? Does the concubine want us to be fishermen? Lin Ayuan has a lot of questions to ask in her heart, but the palace maids and grandmothers of Zhaoyang Hall have already come in, which also means that this conversation is over, even if she has too many questions without answers, she can only keep them in her heart now, and wait until she goes back to ponder slowly.

After Zhao Ming knew the concubine's instructions, even though he had doubts in his heart, he still rejected the names of the courtiers, and honestly stuffed himself in the prince's mansion, and even the small actions in the secret were restrained a lot.

It didn't take long to receive the news of the prince's death.

During the national mourning, the imperial court received news: Yuanwu invaded, the frontier was lost, three cities were lost, and the whereabouts of Xiao Di in the north of the town were unknown.

There was an uproar in the government and the opposition.

The rank of general of Zhenbei began to become a hot topic in the government and the opposition, suppressing the message about the crown prince some time ago.

Zhao Ming is also thinking about who will hold the rank of general in Zhenbei, he hopes that it can be a talent under his foreign general, General Lingyun, or a person who is good friends with General Lingyun, but he is a little afraid to exert his strength now, and he always feels that it is better not to interfere, after all, his father is still very young, and it is not good to develop his personal strength so early.

If you lose the emperor's heart, the gain will outweigh the loss!

So he didn't say anything in the end.

In the end, it was the deputy marshal of Northern Xinjiang, Yi'an Bo Shao Lingti who was the commander, and transferred 100,000 men and horses from the northwest to arrive in Northern Xinjiang to resist the invasion of Yuanwu.

The Houfu in the north of the town was raided, and the female dependents in the house were locked up in the inner courtyard of the Hou Mansion, and they were disposed of after the war was over.

In the second year of the war in Northern Xinjiang, Xiao Qi, the son of Zhenbei Hou, died in battle, and his aunt Su Niang hanged herself.

In the third year of the war, Xiao Di of Zhenbei Hou was also found guilty of collaborating with the enemy and treason, and the government and the opposition were shocked. What's more, the war is not over, and it is not appropriate to make a big killing. Concubine Zhen seconded the proposal.

The emperor angrily reprimanded Concubine Zhen and said: The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics.

In the end, the men of the Houfu in the north of the town were beheaded, and the women were exiled.

Because the second prince Zhao Xin was debauched and uninhibited, the queen was reprimanded by the emperor for her teaching, and was imprisoned in the Chengqian Palace, and the concubine of Zhaoyang Palace held the phoenix seal and commanded the harem.

Wu Yue Min capital. Since then, there has been no further town in the north of the Houfu.

During this time, Assassins broke into the palace. Captured by the Praetorian Guards, Emperor Fury: Execute the assassin Ling Chi!

In the fourth year of the war, Yuanwu withdrew his troops.

Since then, Wu Yue has lost ten cities.

After four years of war, the people of Wu and Yue were displaced. The treasury is empty.

Zhao Ming, the third son of the emperor, has performed remarkably in recent years, and has been supported by the government and the opposition, as well as the military generals.

In the first year after the end of the war, Zhao Ming was awarded the title of crown prince.

……

Although all this is related to Shui Xuan, it has nothing to do with Hanxiao.

Hanxiao had left Minjing shortly after the prince's death, accompanied by Xiao Di, who was captured by the Praetorian Guards. This man. After returning, he sneaked into the Chengqian Palace, probably to visit the imprisoned queen Yelu, but was unexpectedly captured by the Praetorian Guards who were waiting for the rabbit. was rescued from the prison by Concubine Zhen's people one step ahead of time before the execution and handed it over to Xiaoxiao.

As for what do you want to do with him after he is rescued?

It's not that she doesn't want to do it herself, and she simply and neatly solves grievances, but there is an iron law in the cultivation world, that is: you must not make a move on ordinary people. Martial artists also belong to the category of ordinary people.

Throughout the history of the cultivation realm. All cultivators who do things to ordinary people are all dead.

Even if there is hatred. Xiaoxiao definitely didn't want to violate the iron laws of the cultivation realm because of Xiao Di.

She wants immortality.

Returning to Taoyuan Mountain City, I met Tianruo who was waiting there.

Then I heard Tianruo's request.

"What did you just say, do you want Xiao Di?" smiled and looked at Tianruo in front of him in surprise. This person can't be interested in Xiao Di, right?

"Yes, I want you to hand over Xiao Di to me, and the favors you owe me before will be written off. Tianruo didn't realize how much ambiguity there was in his words, and said with a blank face.

"It's like you're at a loss. With a smile, he tilted his head slightly and said, I didn't expect Xiao Di to have such a role, Tianruo stayed in Taoyuan Mountain City and tried his best to teach Shui Xuan, it was because of Xiao Di!!

It's incredible.

I didn't expect Xiao Di to be so valuable!

Xiaoxiao suddenly felt a little sympathy for Xiao Di.

However, in view of the fact that he hadn't figured out how to deal with Xiao Di yet, and that he owed Tianruo several favors before and after, Hanxiao called out a Qiankun bag beside him very happily.

"How did you put a living person in it?" Tianruo was a little surprised.

"When the soul is separated from the body, where is it considered a living person, at best, it is only a living dead. He explained with a smile.

Tianruo was covered in cold sweat, the black lines on his forehead were like a waterfall, and the green tendons on his eyebrows twitched.

She is completely relieved now!

With Hanxiao's attitude towards Xiao Di, she was sure: Hanxiao has no feelings for Xiao Di!

In other words: no matter what she does with Xiao Di, it will not lead to a smile of dissatisfaction.

That's good!

……

Most of the old people around Hanxiao have a home, including the green yarn stranded in the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei.

Listening to Yinluo, she had an affair with a person from the rivers and lakes who broke into the Hou Mansion at night a few years ago, and was later sold by Xiao Difa, and then escaped from Lefang, which can be regarded as escaping.

Now he is at ease with that person in the rivers and lakes, and it is said that he is living a good life.

They also had occasional contact with Yinluo, and also donated a large amount of gold and silver to Shui Xuan.

I just don't dare to see a smile.

The peak of the eighth layer of Yinya's internal strength, as guessed before, has become the actual ruler of Wuyinglou, and the relationship with her husband Qinghe is also respectful as ice, and Hanxiao has already suggested that the two of them should be reconciled, although they are persuaded to leave or not, but Qinghe is debauched, Yinya is not the one who can tolerate people, and the two are not compatible at all, so it is better to separate as soon as possible.

When leaving, in addition to Shui Yue and Chi Xuanqi, who were crazy in the secular world, they also took a little doll with them, Yinluo's youngest son, Shui Jie, and the pseudo-spiritual root of the four elements of gold, water, fire and earth;

The qualifications are not good, but it is enough to enter the outer door!

ps:

Code words, code words, trance is missing!
