Chapter 592: Internal and External Troubles
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, nothing special happened, the New Year is coming, but too many things have happened in the past year, and there are few people who are in a festive mood for the New Year, and they don't have that spirit if they want to make trouble. However, some small episodes still happened, for example, the position of Xue Yongshi at the inner court banquet was quite worth gossiping, and she actually stood in front of Concubine Lu Ning, a veteran concubine from the Lu family.
Although the head of the eldest grandson family was angry, he was not a stupid person, and said, "About some time ago, our family's actions made him angry, so he also beat us, but he didn't have to care too much." ”
As a man, the vision of men is always relatively accurate, maybe Xue Yongshi is more favored and trusted now than before, but there is absolutely no obsessive look in Yu Wencheng's eyes, that is, Xue Yongshi has not yet stood in a strong position. From the bottom of the old man's heart, compared to the Xue family, he was more reluctant for his granddaughter to face an opponent like the county lord Jian Hui, a gentle and intelligent woman who would make Yu Wencheng retreat and be obsessed with it was unintentionally more dangerous.
It is necessary to know that people will take a second step back if they take a step back, and people who are old and refined do not think that an abandoned concubine orphan girl who was driven out of the house has become a county lord, it is all about luck, as long as there is enough scheming and beauty, grasp this advantage, it is really difficult to say in the future. Fortunately, the county lord Jian Hui is already dead, so there is no need to worry that she has the heart to rob the man, so there is no need to mention this matter to her own plain girl.
But the most ugly thing about this matter is not only the eldest grandson family, the Lu family feels quite shameless. Even if Lu Ning is not favored, it is not comparable to Xue Yongshi, why let her stand in front? Old Madam Lin's face in the main hall was not well controlled. It took a moment of ugliness to recover, and when I got home, I lost my temper. However, the Lu family and Yu Wencheng are truly living and dying together, and the eldest grandson family was originally the same, but the eldest grandson died, and her son also died, to some extent, the eldest grandson family got rid of the dilemma of having to go on with Yu Wencheng.
Mrs. Lin also didn't believe that Yu Wencheng would spoil Xue Yongshi very much, but as a woman. Especially from Yin Su, Su Lin Yu and others who have been injured and suffered losses one after another, she never underestimates any woman. After thinking about it, she began to instruct someone to take a pen and write a letter.
In the palace at this time. The atmosphere was warm and affectionate, but Xue Yongshi looked at Yu Wencheng with a grateful face, the bright light in her eyes seemed to be able to give out a clear spring, and her voice was even more delicate and trembling like a soft flower blooming in spring.
But. It's all less touching than what she said. "Even if there is only one time in a lifetime, the opportunity to stand by your side, the concubine will die without regrets."
Anyway, Yu Wencheng was a little moved, he has been in a hurry recently, needless to say that he has a dead wife and a dead son, the key is that the country that he finally got his hands on looked precarious, and Xue Yongshi's gentle performance at this time really made him feel excited.
However, giving is often a desire to get something in return. This return, even if it is not money, power, and status, is also emotional, as for a woman like Xue Yongshi. She is doubly nice to you and naturally wants more. However, even for a person like her, the days in this deep palace are so difficult, day by day, like frying in oil.
But for some people, life is very good, such as Qingqing or Lin Yu, Qingqing was worried that Lin Yu would feel bored at first, but later found that for a house, it is actually not a big deal, Lin Yu completely enjoys this peaceful life.
Qingqing, looking at her so calmly a little, was a little uneasy, "You're not worried about the situation outside at all?" ”
"I'm worried about what I can do?" Lin Yu asked rhetorically, "Besides, I still have confidence in them." ”
In fact, it is not entirely true to say that Lin Yu doesn't care, although she has not been in contact with the outside world during this time, she has not cut off the news from the outside world, and she herself has some news channels, judging from the current situation, it seems that she really doesn't have to worry too much. Lin Yu released Zhang Wan'er's affairs throughout the whole time, and someone leaked it to Lu Pingzhi, and Lu Pingzhi's side, I don't know if Lu Dao was affected by this news, or if the gap between the two swords of Yuwenqi Yin Susu was too big, and Yuwencheng was disappointed, and he lost the city one after another, not to mention, and even the southwest couldn't be saved immediately.
The northwest is barren, the southwest is different, if you control the southwest, Yuwenqi no longer has to worry about logistics, with the level of Yuwenqi leading troops to fight and the elite soldiers under him, the winning side will be less than three or seven at the beginning, to six or four or even seventy-three.
This is good news for Yu Wencheng, but it is a big disadvantage for Yu Wencheng, Lin Yu has some understanding of Yu Wencheng's temper, with his temperament, maybe he can win the battle against the water, this kind of pressure of being constantly devoured by whales will only make his emotions out of control, and his performance will become worse and worse. What's worse is that Concubine Lu Li is dead, and the eldest grandson is also dead, there are almost no people who can dissuade him, maybe Xue Yongshi will do it after her intentions, but she won't do it.
She is more of a gentle and brilliant image to contrast the bad of others, which will only stimulate Yu Wencheng to be more dissatisfied with those people, more tyrannical, and unable to see the situation clearly, especially the innocent people who have suffered recently. Fortunately, King Qi has been sick recently, and he restrained his subordinates in time, and he was very low-key, so he was not involved. You must know that Lu Dao recently Yu Wencheng punished two uncles and three aunts and their husbands one after another, and there are so many unlucky people in the princess and princess, not to mention others.
One side is winning, the logistics are worry-free, the good generals and elite soldiers still occupy the righteousness, on the other hand, the emotions have gradually gotten out of control, which is a big disappointment, and the originally low people's hearts have gradually been lost, and the victory or loss of this war does not seem to be a problem, especially when Lin Yu also knows that Xue Yongshi, the pillow person of Yu Wencheng, is indeed harboring evil intentions for Yu Wencheng.
This was an unexpected discovery when Qingqing entered the palace, she passed by the Phi Xiang Hall where Xue Yongshi now lives, and happened to meet Xue Yongshi's palace people pouring incense ashes from a distance. Qingqing, she is a skilled house, so obsessed with spices, after the palace people left, she went over with some curiosity, but she made a bit of an unexpected discovery.
The spices used by Xue Yongshi seem to be spices that can stimulate people's excitement, and when it comes to the current situation, can you still not understand it at all? It's just that Qingqing was silent for a while, and she still didn't say anything, even if it was to the personal maid, she just said that it was an ordinary sweet fragrance.
Of course, she wouldn't hide this matter from Lin Yu, and when she came back, she mentioned it to Lin Yu, "If it weren't for Xue Yongshi who was very good at perfumery, there would be some master behind her, and I almost didn't even notice it." ”
"With her age, I'm afraid it's not her, unless she has been with you for a year and has a family secret." Lin Yu sighed, "I remembered another thing, before the eldest grandson died, there was a problem in the spices, do you think it could be the hand of the Xue family?" Or the person behind her? ”
Actually, Lin Yu also remembered another person, she hesitated, I don't know if I want to say it, Qingqing took a sip of tea, "You just said it, do you still have any concerns?" ”
"I'm just guessing." Lin Yu still had hesitation in her eyes, with her character, if there were no more positive clues, she would not be able to talk about others, but in the same way, she really didn't need to care about anything when facing Qingqing.
"What is sacred that makes you look so jealous?"
"Liu, Empress Liu, uh, now it's Empress Dowager Liu." Lin Yu is indeed jealous of the Liu family, "This woman, but Yin Susu fell into her hands once." ”
Looking back now, although Lin Yu had no contact with the Liu family who got up early, the actions of this queen are really admirable. Needless to say, God gave it to her beauty or something, she didn't become a princess and became a queen, but she is not familiar with it in secular concepts, she has children, daughters and love, and she doesn't say this. Just looking at the fact that she dared to continue to murder the woman who became the crown princess has never been discovered, she has been ambiguous with the prince for many years, no one has exposed it, and she can still steal beams and change pillars after giving birth to an illegitimate child, all of this is successful, and you know that this woman is not a simple character.
Except for Lin Yu's suspended death this time, Yin Susu has been smooth sailing in her life, and she planted it once, that is, in the hands of Queen Liu, and she planted it very miserably this time, if it wasn't for good luck, Lin Yu came to save the scene, and almost gave away her life. Of course, there are reasons for Yin Susu's carelessness, but it is also an indisputable fact that it was planted in the hands of Queen Liu.
Of course, if it weren't for Yin Susu's instant retreat and the lack of intelligence system, the third prince Yu Wencheng might not have been able to succeed in the rebellion, and the Liu family would have pitted himself into it to some extent. Therefore, Liu's overall view is really not good, and she can't be regarded as a truly wise woman, but she is shrewd and sinister, and cunning and cunning, and she, the winner of the palace fight, can be proud of everything.
How could such a person be so immersed in nothing, send all his children out, and determined to take revenge? According to the news received by Lin Yu, the Su family did not plot to kill the Changsun clan, maybe she had this idea, but she didn't do it, and the Changsun clan died, so who killed the Changsun clan?
Lin Yu is really suspicious of Queen Liu's role in it, and even whether she is in collusion with Xue Yongshi? After all, at the moment, it seems that people with this common interest have a natural reason for alliance, a favorite concubine, a former queen who has stood in the palace for many years and has a deep foundation, and the first queen mother, it is simply a good match.
With such internal and external troubles, Lin Yu is not optimistic about Yu Wencheng. But Lin Yu didn't expect that things would take a turn so quickly, maybe everyone didn't expect it, and it can only be said that fate is more ingenious and traceless than people's calculations.
It's just just after the first month, and a poisoning incident broke out in the palace, and the protagonist of the poisoning incident doesn't need to guess, it is Yu Wencheng. (To be continued......)
