Chapter 43: In the Palace
In the morning, Mrs. Meng saw the injury on Fang Mingzhu's hand, and really asked carefully. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Hearing that Fang Mingzhu accidentally injured herself when she got up at night, the old lady couldn't help but be a little angry.
Xiaohuan naturally didn't dare to shirk his mistakes, so he knelt directly in front of the old lady to plead guilty. Seeing this girl who had been by Fang Mingzhu's side, the old lady was secretly puzzled. But it didn't show it on the face, but just told Xiaohuan to pay attention next time. For Laneige, who was the first to pay attention to this matter, the old lady personally watched the reward.
Since then, Laneige and Xiaohuan's status by Fang Mingzhu's side has quietly begun to change.
Originally, many things in Xiaohuan were now told by Fang Mingzhu to Laneige to do. This point, after everyone felt unaccustomed and surprised at the beginning, they also slowly got used to it.
said that Meng Yingqi, since he was recruited back by the household after marriage, he was invited to the side by several unfamiliar faces to drink tea as soon as he arrived at the Yamen.
There has been a great change in the personnel relations of the household department, except for him, a small official. Needless to say, seeing so many things happening in front of him, and in connection with his analysis of the situation between the DPRK and China, Meng Yingqi soon found himself involved in the power struggle between the two sides of Fang Fu.
Fang Xiangye's faction, needless to say, must protect himself, and Fu Shangshu's side, naturally, his first reaction was to get rid of himself and then hurry.
After being sent to the palace by Fang Xiangye in the name of accompanying the prince to study, the range of Meng Yingqi's daily activities was a small boxy courtyard in the deep palace. It is said that this is a small courtyard in the East Palace of the Prince, and no one is allowed to enter or leave without the permission of the emperor.
At the beginning, Meng Yingqi also hoped that he could meet someone, or Fang Xiangye would send someone to contact him so that he could know at least a little bit about the outside world. However, after waiting for several days, he realized that he was too naïve.
For Fang Xiangye, he may be just a small chess piece. The only role he played in this battle may be that the data found out in the household department gave Fang Xiangye a reasonable and perfect excuse to attack.
At this moment, he was trapped in the East Palace, and no one cared about the life or death of his little chess piece. Of course, Fang Xiangye didn't have time to pay attention to it at the moment, and Fu Shangshu was disdainful. After Fang Xiangye launched an attack, his targets were all important figures on Fu Shangshu's side. Therefore, in order to prevent the opponent's attack, Fu Shangshu couldn't spare his hand to teach him a lesson for the time being.
And if the Fu party has the upper hand, then his fate can be imagined, it will inevitably end dismally, and it is likely that there will be no bones.
It's just that no matter how he is, it doesn't matter what happens to him now, the saddest thing should be the old mother at home, right?
Thinking of his mother, Meng Yingqi couldn't help sighing, all along, it seemed that he had never reassured his mother. originally thought that returning to her hometown could bring glory and comfort to her mother, not to mention letting her old man enjoy honor in peace, at least she could live a stable life for a few years. Who knew that he was too bookish and fell into this sinister court dispute. If you are not careful, you will never recover.
He silently thought about his thoughts, pacing slowly in the narrow courtyard. said that he was asked to enter the palace to accompany the prince to study, but in fact, after entering the palace for so many days, he didn't even see what the prince looked like.
There were rumors in the outside world before, saying that Fang Xiangye seized power and usurped the Son of Heaven, but he always thought that it was just people's jealousy of Fang Xiangye's high achievements and the attack of Fu Shangshu's faction, and he always disagreed. Only at this moment did he really see Fang Xiangye's domineering side in front of the Son of Heaven.
It stands to reason that the prince is young, and he is not yet old enough to study. Even if you want to invite the crown prince and the prince, it should be designated by the Son of Heaven. But Fang Xiangye didn't say a word, and directly sent him to the prince's East Palace in the name of letting him accompany the prince to study.
In this small courtyard, except for the two elderly guards, only every morning and evening, there will be palace maids to bring in meals. And those palace maids who brought food in were also stopped by the guards when they arrived at the door. He didn't have the slightest chance of contact with the outside world. Therefore, he was actually imprisoned in disguise.
"Hey, who are you? Why are you here? A crisp girl's voice broke the peace of the small courtyard.
He was stunned for a moment, and then he saw the face of a young girl on the wall. How could this girl be so bold? There was a loud noise in the inner courtyard of this palace, and in a kind of master's tone. Come to think of it, she should not be an ordinary person, she must be a noble person in the palace.
He glanced at the girl, then looked down and stopped looking at her, but walked away with his back to her.
"Hey! Say what about you! How did you go? You stop! The girl's voice grew louder and louder, and she became a little angry.
This voice alarmed the guards guarding outside the courtyard. Then I heard someone shouting and asking, "Who is making a noise here?" Hurry up and go away! ”
Then I heard two cracks, and then the girl's voice: "Who are you?" Do you dare to stand in the way of my Princess Fengyi? ”
Hearing the words of Princess Fengyi, even Meng Yingqi, who had always paid little attention to the dignitaries in the court, was worried about the two guards.
Princess Fengyi is notoriously bold. It is said that she was originally the daughter of the fifth prince, but the fifth prince died of a vicious disease that year, and the fifth princess died of dystocia when she gave birth to her. Therefore, the emperor personally named her Fengyi, which means Fenglaiyi. and was named a princess.
The queen mother took pity on this granddaughter for being unhealthy since she was a child, and she personally raised her by her side, and she was very pampered. Except for the moon in the sky, there is no way to pluck it off for her, and the other requirements, as long as she speaks, are almost impossible to meet her. And Princess Fengyi is among the royal relatives and relatives, and she is also calling for wind and rain and responding to requests. Because everyone knows the temper of the Queen Mother, no one dares to provoke her easily.
Now that these two guards have met Princess Fengyi, it can be said that they have poured blood mold for eight lifetimes. "The little one has eyes and no beads, and I don't know that the princess has arrived, so I ask the princess to forgive me! However, the people in this courtyard were ordered by Fang Xiangye to be optimistic, and the small ones did not dare to disobey their orders! The voices of the two guards were filled with tears.
"What is Fang Xiangye? This is the palace! The palace is the biggest in the palace for my emperor's uncle! Princess Fengyi's voice carried a domineering spirit.
Those two guards didn't dare to say more, and they naturally didn't dare to disobey Fang Xiangye. But if they want to offend the emperor and this Princess Fengyi, of course they don't have the courage to do so! Now, they're in the palace.
"Hey! Say what about you! Who are you? Princess Fengyi's voice had already appeared behind him. Meng Yingqi smiled bitterly and turned around.
Seeing the face in front of him, Meng Yingqi couldn't help but be stunned.
