Chapter 78: Scheming
There was a period of people in the palace who turned their horses on their backs, starting from Qingning Palace to investigate, checking the yin and private affairs in each palace, although Wei Qian's spice was not found elsewhere, but also found out that many other palace concubines were scheming and fighting with each other.
Wu Guifei's incense burner, Concubine Xiande's curtain, and Deng Zhaoyi's clothes are stained with various special spices.
Like Concubine Xiande, the pair of Fengxiang Tong silk curtains were originally given by the queen's mother. The clothes on Deng Zhaoyi's body were given by Wu Guifei a few years ago, and Wu Guifei's incense burner was also written by the queen.
Situ Yun had a dark face, and after coming to Ningshou Palace, he looked at the concubines in the palace, and sat next to the Queen Mother in silence. Although I have known about the intrigue in the harem for a long time, I didn't expect that it would only be a few years before I started with my own heirs.
"If you die, will you be able to get a favor?" Situ Yun looked at Queen Wang dissatisfied.
Queen Wang's face changed slightly, her heart continued to sink, she knew that she had been cheated. With the help of Wei Qian's hand, she calculated her fiercely.
"Is it Jia Yuanchun?" His eyes were fixed on the curtain of Concubine Xiande. When she drugged Jia Yuanchun, it was not in the tent, but in another thing. However, last month, Concubine Xiande changed hands and gave it to others, so she must have been prepared for it.
"She deliberately put down her own tent, in order to push it to the palace?"
"You all talk!" Empress Dowager Chen pointed to the things that the maid was holding. Which palace didn't have something that others secretly stuffed? There are also some red, musk and things like that. Some are ready to give away, and some are cheated by others and mixed with their daily use.
But at this moment, they all gritted their teeth and claimed that it was something sent in by others.
"Speaking of which, the queen's palace is clean." Concubine Xiande measured the Tao. As the queen mother guessed, Concubine Xiande deliberately ordered Huqin to smear things in her palace to wash away her innocence.
looked at Wei Qian. Seeing Wei Qian bowing her head and crying silently, Jia Yuanchun thought secretly: "This cousin is really a good means." Now that the road has been paved, I might as well take the opportunity to show my attitude and join forces with Wu Guifei for the time being? β
Jia Yuanchun questioned the queen with a clear attitude, and Wu Guifei also reacted, and the only way to clear her innocence was to throw the suspicion to others. And in Wu Guifei's mind, this matter could only be done by the queen. Except for the queen, who can start in their own palace?
Some of the other concubines were weak-hearted, and they also hurriedly framed the queen for these things that appeared in their palaces.
"The concubine is wronged!" Queen Wang's face changed greatly, and she hurriedly went out to avenge her grievances. Although she cheats people, she can't splash the dirty water of the entire harem on her, right?
"Wronged?" Situ Yun was furious and reached out to shake the teacup over! "You are the queen, the master of the six palaces, you didn't do it, why are so many people in the palace recruited, and it's okay in your palace?"
"Niangniang is in charge of the six palaces, and the concubine has always been good to the palace people, and she can make them betray the palace, who else are you besides Niangniang?" Wu Guifei will not let go, and if she does not clear her suspicions in this matter, she will inevitably fall out of favor in the future.
"Yes, yes!" The wall fell down and everyone pushed it, and the other concubines followed Wu Guifei to echo it, as long as it was pushed to the queen, the position of the middle palace was vacant, who could say that he did not reach the top one day?
"Yes, that curtain was given by my sister Fengzao Palace when it was first established." Jia Yuanchun learned from Wei Qian to cry, although the two sisters have incompatible personalities, they are also masters of acting. "Who would have thought that it was the mother who secretly poisoned her?"
Wen Xiuyi and the others turned white, and they also thought of what the queen mother had given them. However, after those things were later checked, they managed to isolate them and did not use them.
Wen Xiuyi wondered in her heart: "Since we can find out, why are these concubines unaware?" β
A group of warblers and warblers wept like pear blossoms with rain, Situ Yun felt a pain in his heart, and gritted his teeth: "The queen's middle palace is immoral, and she will be deprived of the phoenix ...... from now on"
"ιxiΓ ." Wei Qianrou interrupted Situ Yun softly, choked up, and said: "Although Niangniang is guilty of neglecting the harem, whether this matter was done by her or not is just our sister's speculation. β
"Then why is she okay in the palace?" Wu Guifei looked at Wei Qian, with a look of surprise on her face, this was an excellent opportunity to suppress the queen. Why did this girl help Queen Wang speak at this time?
Wei Qian shook her head slowly: "If it is said that there is nothing to do in the Niangniang Palace, maybe the queen is strict and cautious, and it is inconvenient for outsiders to attack her?" He added: "Look, the concubines are looking at the younger sisters with low ranks, and there are no accidents, could it be that they are also suspicious?" Now that there is no one in Qingning Palace, there is no need to find out the poison that is plotting against others, maybe Niangniang really doesn't know? β
"As for why only a few of us are unlucky, it must be deliberately targeting a few of us. But if there is no evidence, His Majesty must not lightly suspect the Middle Palace, so as not to hurt the relatives and the enemies quickly. Secretly stretched out five fingers and gestured in the direction of the Taiji Pavilion.
The Five Princes? Situ Yun was stunned and fell silent. "That's it, the queen's affairs are not good, resulting in a miasma in the harem, and all the concubines are victimized by traitors. I think it's also because the queen's qualifications are too shallow and she is in charge of the harem for the first time. Now that the queen mother is presiding over the court, the affairs of the harem will be handed over to the queen mother for the time being. Just rest for a while!"
After Situ Yun finished speaking, he threw up his sleeves and left.
Empress Dowager Chen was overjoyed in her heart, scolded Queen Wang with a stiff face, and left Wei Qian alone and let everyone leave.
"You girl is so bold, you don't even want your own happy bed! Also, what did you mean by Concubine Zhen just now? "Empress Dowager Chen saw Wei Qian's hint to Situ Yun, and it was because she understood it that she didn't deal with the queen.
"Even if it's not a concubine, it must be her." Wei Qian shook her head lightly: "It can't be said that the queen mother persecuted the concubines, right?" The middle palace is shaken, and it is not good for His Majesty. Now that His Majesty's dragon position is unstable, those who can bear it should bear it. β
Deposed Queen? It will only make the court turbulent, and it will not be good for Situ Yun's dragon chair.
"Now that the power of the queen mother is cut off, the queen mother can worry more about it in the future." Wei Qian said with a smile: "Those eyeliners in the concubine's palace will all be handed over to the mother." β
Empress Dowager Chen was silent, and only sighed after half a sound: "It's hard for you, and you have to help this slut cover up when this kind of thing happens." You can rest assured, this palace is in one day, and there will be no accident when your palace is interrupted. β
Good words comforted Wei Qian, and Empress Dowager Chen really regarded Wei Qian as a blessed general. Just a few days after entering the palace, he first helped himself to establish the court, and then even took the power of the six palaces. As soon as this matter came out, even the emperor couldn't say much.
Tai Chi Pavilion, the Emperor Taishang is watching the singer dance. Hearing this, he waved off the eunuch and only said: "In the end, it is a little childish, it was indeed a little wrong to choose this princess for Lao Qi back then." β
At the beginning, Situ Yun was just a little prince with the same background, and the Emperor Taishang didn't choose a princess with a higher status for him after thinking about it, so as not to give him any ideas with the help of his wife's family.
But now that Situ Yun has ascended the throne by mistake, it is okay for this princess to be in charge of the palace, but the mother is obviously not in the world.
"If you talk about her background, there are a lot of people in the harem who have overwhelmed her. And she can't adjust her mentality, and sooner or later something will happen when she turns around. "The Emperor Taishang was quite dissatisfied. But after all, it is his son's harem, and he is too emperor to speak, so he simply continues to watch the song and dance. "But when you go back, you can find Concubine Ning's girl to drink tea. This girl is quite interesting, and she didn't say anything about deposing the Middle Palace. β
Ningshou Palace, Wei Qian came out of the palace. The Queen Mother gave her a lot of ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum and other supplements, and wanted her to nourish her body and go back to bed.
Suddenly, I saw a red shadow in the distance. Wei Qian said to Hongchun: "You send things back, Xiangling, you come with this palace." Wei Qian took Xiangling over and saw Jia Yuanchun standing at the intersection of Ningshou Palace and Penglai Hu.
"Sister, can you go with my sister?"
Wei Qian pondered Jia Yuanchun's intentions, and said with a smile on his face: "Okay." He smiled indifferently and walked all the way with Jia Yuanchun.
The two walked through a peach forest, and the pink peach blossoms bloomed.
Seeing that there was no one around, Jia Yuanchun said: "My sister's hand is clever, presumably the incense was given by my sister herself?" β
"Huh?" Wei Qian looked at Jia Yuanchun with an unknown look. "My sister doesn't know what my sister is talking about, what that spice is used for, my sister really doesn't know." His eyes flashed with sincerity, and even the most clever criminal officer could not see the fake.
Jia Yuanchun said: "Don't pretend, although my sister and sister don't see each other much, they have always paid attention to my sister." My sister has a strong temper, even if she puts on a pure heart and few desires, but how can she let others take the initiative according to her sister's strong desires? β
Although Wei Qian cultivates, she is a woman who is determined to build her own empire. Is it really as weak as the appearance?
Would you really be naΓ―ve to think that if you don't do it, others won't harm you?
"Although my sister has a lot of eyeliner in the palace, it is not easy to start from under my sister's nose. And that incense should not be from the queen's mother. In other words, my sister is pushing the boat down the river and replacing the spices. β
Jia Yuanchun stretched out his finger and twisted a peach blossom: "According to the queen's thoughts, I will indeed start at this time." Evian is really the queen's mother. But according to your caution, how can an unknown drug let it get its hands on it? β
"My sister may have forgotten, but my sister still remembers her habits. As long as it's something uncharted, my sister will never touch it again. For this reason, my sister changed a lot of cups and bedding in Jiafu. For the sake of the embankment, others are plotting. β
"And, according to my sister's desire to control, I will never let an accident happen. Even if you acquiesce to Evian's medicine, Evian's medicine must have been replaced by you. β
"Each other, each other. The medicine on my sister's tent should not be under the queen. Wei Qian finally spoke, her smile and the bright peach in the background fused together, competing for brilliance. Sister's medicine should have come down to target the queen mother by herself? Otherwise, why did you choose the curtain sent by the queen? This time, my sister made it clear that the carriage and the queen were working against each other, and I asked my sister to be careful in the future. After replying, he took his leave and left.
Looking at Wei Qian's departing back, Jia Yuanchun said to himself: "You are saying that there is an accident in your palace, aren't you warning us, let's hurry up and drug the palace, so that we can take the opportunity to get rid of our suspicion and attack the queen together?" β
But thinking of the last sentence, Yuan Chun sighed lightly: "I also want to use the medicine that the queen gave me at the beginning, not only can I pretend that I don't know, but I can also use the difference between the two drugs to make the queen suspicious of you, and understand that you are secretly operating to push you to the front." β
But Jia Yuanchun just sent things out last month, and at this time, if he wanted to push the queen, he could only drug the things sent by the queen himself. This time, there are traces of too many tricks, and of course Queen Wang understands that Jia Yuanchun is doing it on purpose to attract most of the hatred.
"So! Although he suppressed the queen's arrogance, he was forced by this cousin, and it is currently clear that the chariot and horse are opposed to the queen, and the future layout needs to be planned carefully.
And even if this cousin doesn't cooperate, she must be kept neutral, and it's too troublesome to bother with this kind of person. Now that there is the support of the Queen Mother, hehe, this time to help the Queen Mother take charge of the palace, I am afraid that Yongfu Palace will no longer have to worry about the plots of others. β
Wei Qian left the garden and returned to the Ayaqi Palace.
Wen Xiuyi stepped forward to ask about the situation, and Wei Qian said with a smile: "After leaving the palace, I saw my cousin, she greeted a few words, it's nothing." It's just that the poor cousin was also victimized by others, and nothing came out of it all these years. β
"Although my sister knew that there were people in the harem who designed it, I didn't expect the queen mother to be so ruthless." For Concubine Zhen, Wen Xiuyi didn't think about it at all.
"But in the end, it is the queen's mother, and the middle palace cannot be shaken at this time." Wei Qian comforted Wen Xiuyi a few more words. In the evening, Situ Yun rarely came to the Ayaqi Palace.
Of course, this is chasing Wei Qian.
Wen Xiuyi was interested, did not disturb the two, and let the two speak in the side hall.
Situ Yun was a little embarrassed, and said in a deep voice: "That bed was taken by me to apply incense." Go back and check the incense before moving it back for you. β
Wei Qian was silent, and Situ Yun said again: "This time it is indeed difficult for you, and it is no wonder that you are sad when this kind of thing happens." Situ Yun thought about it, Wei Qian couldn't have children, and as a result, he was stimulated by this drug, which naturally poked him into inferiority, so he was angry and wanted to burn the happy bed.
Wei Qian didn't speak, constantly thinking about the next move.
After a while, he said in a low voice: "The concubine body begs His Majesty not to blame the concubine body for making her own opinion." β
"What? Hi bed? I know you're sad about your body, so don't worry. If you really want to have a child, I will take it upon you to find a treasure from your palace and write her child in your name. β
Wei Qian shook her head: "Your Majesty rules the mountains and rivers, and the dragon heir is the greatest, which is related to the society of the rivers and mountains." Although the concubine has only been in the palace for a few days, seeing that His Majesty has no children under her knees, the Queen Mother is worried about this, and the concubine is quite unpleasant. β
"Last night, Hongchun noticed that Evian was assigned to attack the concubine. The concubine will take the opportunity to stab the matter and track down the real culprit behind the scenes, and clean up the harem by the way. β
"You did this on purpose?" Situ Yun's heart was shocked, he thought that Wei Qian was so troublesome because of his natural illness, but it turned out that this was the case?
Wei Qian said: "The concubine is worried about His Majesty's heirs, and when she saw that the harem was constantly private, she designed to help Her Majesty clean up the harem." I didn't expect this incident to be done by the queen's mother. β
"Really a queen?" Situ Yun was a little skeptical.
"There is a problem with the harem, and the concubine has already felt it, so when the court was established, the queen mother was asked to establish a female medical bureau in order to help the concubine check her body. As a result, she was tried to stop by the queen's mother, and now she is worried that her plan will be exposed. β
is reasonable and well-founded, when Queen Wang saw Wei Qian's arrogant suppression, it directly became a proof of the queen's weakness.
However, the concubine also understands the queen's thoughts, there is no child in the middle palace, if the concubine is born first, it will be detrimental to the prince in the future. Therefore, Niangniang wants to give birth to her eldest son and occupy the status of the legal system. βγ
Situ Yun bowed his head, and he could guess what Queen Wang thought, but psychologically he couldn't accept that he would block the birth of his other children.
"If she doesn't give birth to a son-in-law for a day, I can't have a child for a day?"
Wei Qian said softly: "Niangniang has indeed done a little too much, but the position of the middle palace must not be taken away. So as not to disturb people's hearts, several princes fought back. Now the harem has been cleaned up, and the Queen Mother is in charge. Your Majesty can rest assured for a period of time and reproduce with your concubines. The concubine is here to help His Majesty prosper. After speaking, he bowed deeply to Situ Yun.
Wei Qian didn't want to pretend to be an innocent white lotus, so she simply wanted to be a smart woman with natural diseases. You can watch from afar but not play profane, you can make friends but you can't go deep.
looked like helping Situ Yun, although Situ Yun minded Wei Qian's scheming a little, he was also very moved, and hurriedly helped Wei Qian up.
"Your Majesty, it's late at night. Today, Your Majesty can go to Sister Wen first. It is best to be able to succeed overnight, and the prosperity of the dragon is the work of the country. With a look of helping Situ Yun plan, he directly sent Situ Yun to the main hall to find Wen Xiuyi.
