Chapter 585: Clearing the Portal
After the Zhuang family left the palace, Lin Yan asked people to put away the small clothes sent by the Zhuang family. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
And at this moment, Mu Qing came in and said to Lin Yan: "Niangniang, these days, many palace people in the palace have been suddenly taken away by Gonggong Wan, and then they have not come back. ”
Lin Yan listened and nodded, since she was pregnant, the emperor didn't want her to worry about it anymore, so he even took over the affairs of the harem. And in order to let her raise the fetus with peace of mind, many things were not let her know. As soon as the emperor became serious, she was "dizzy" in the harem.
She used to boast that she was looking at all directions, and there was almost nothing in the harem that could hide from her, but as soon as the emperor made a move, she felt that she was really arrogant, and all her eyes and ears seemed to be blocked by the emperor.
Lin Yan was naturally a little angry, but after being diagnosed by the imperial doctor last time that the fetus was unstable, and she shouldn't worry too much about the need to quietly raise the fetus, the emperor even more justifiably blocked everything out of her in the name of "for her good", and didn't let a little thing affect her mood.
Although Lin Yan was helpless, she couldn't twist her arms against the emperor.
But Lin Yan at least knew that the emperor had been cleaning up the portal recently, preparing to check the harem.
Mu Qing continued: "A confidant by the crown princess's side, surnamed Nian, and Ye Sang were also invited away by the prince. ”
Lin Yan turned her head when she listened, a little surprised.
Mu Qing nodded at her and continued, "Ye Sang was sent back after being taken away for a few days, but that young man never came back. ”
Lin Yan knew that young man, after the nurse Fu Mo next to the crown princess was sent back to Cui's house because of a mistake, it was this young man who came up to serve by the princess's side, and it has been more than ten years. This young man was originally serving in the Shang Palace Bureau, and was later asked to come to her by the crown princess, who trusted her very much, sometimes even more than Ye Sang she brought in from outside the palace.
That young man looks very honest, he always has a smiling face on weekdays, and he is polite to everyone. But because of this, you can also eat in the harem.
Lin Yan said in her heart, it seems that there is something wrong with this young man.
Lin Yan asked again: "Can anyone in Changkun Palace be taken away?" ”
Mu Qing nodded and said, "A little father-in-law who sweeps the yard at the door, and a palace maid who is in charge of the flowers and trees in the garden on weekdays. It is said that someone gave them money and asked them to report anything to the mother, including her whereabouts, food, what she said, and who she met. Because the two of them are inferior palace people, they don't know much about Niangniang, so they have only betrayed the news once. Once the mother went to the small garden for a walk, and once went out to the Qinzheng Hall to deliver soup. They originally thought that this was not important news, and it was okay to say it, and they were greedy for money for a while. But I didn't expect that with such two important news, the man still gave them one or two pieces of silver. ”
Lin Yan sighed, this is indeed not important news, she went to the garden for a walk or went to the Qinzheng Palace, and even the news that could be heard almost easily. But those people gave them money, not because the two pieces of news were important, but so that they could tell him more important news later.
An unimportant piece of news can get a tael of silver, but if it is an important piece of news, everyone is greedy for money. What's more, some unimportant news reaches the ears of those who care, and then connected in series, sometimes it may be an important news.
Mu Qing knelt on the ground and said, "The slave and maid ask the mother for forgiveness, or the slave and maid are not optimistic about the portal of Changkun Palace." ”
Lin Yan said: "You get up, this can't blame you, you have done a good job, Changkun Palace has not had any major events for so many years, half of it is your credit." There are so many people in Changkun Palace, let you ensure that everyone is loyal to Changkun Palace, that is embarrassing for you. ”
Lin Yan didn't ask who was buying the two palace people behind her, but sighed softly.
And at the same time, in the Yanqing Palace.
The crown princess sat in a chair, also thinking about things at this time.
Ye Sang asked the prince to take him away, and when he came back, although his face was a little haggard, he didn't see any injuries on his body.
Ye Sang remembered this experience, the filth in the torture chamber, the rats running around on the ground, and other sounds like ghosts howling everywhere.
Every palace person who enters the harem torture room, the first thing they will encounter is to get off the horse and knock off your spiritual qi by three points. When Ye Sang entered, he saw a palace man who had made a mistake and was forced to drink urine. So when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to ask her, she said everything, including what she knew about the Crown Princess. Because of this, she finally came back safe and sound.
But Ye Sang almost didn't want to recall this experience at all, even when he recalled it occasionally, he would still dream at night.
Ye Sang said to the crown princess: "...... Your Highness, I can't come back. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that she was a spy placed by others beside His Highness, in order to separate His Highness and the queen's mother. ”
The crown princess sighed in her heart, she has served her for more than ten years, almost since she gave birth to Yuan'er. has been loyal to her for so many years, and brought up Yuan Erlan'er, how have he ever done things that are not good for her.
As for the separation between her and the queen, it is even more out of nowhere. Nian He once said that the queen was not good for half a word, but in front of her, she often persuaded her to respect the queen, to serve the queen, to be respectful and obedient to the queen, and to obey no orders.
But the things in this palace have never been clear, the prince said that she was a spy placed by someone else beside her, then she was someone else's spy.
Ye Sang looked at the crown princess, knowing that she didn't believe that Nian was someone else's spy, and sighed in his heart.
In the past, Ye Sang didn't think that there was anything about Nian, that is, the crown princess snubbed her, the maid who had served her since childhood, because of her youth, and she only blamed herself for not being enough to win the princess's heart and couldn't share her worries.
But now that I think about it, there was a lot wrong with the year. Many of the things she said to the crown princess sounded like she was persuading the princess not to have trouble with the queen and to be respectful and respectful to the queen mother, but the words sounded so uncomfortable.
It seems that the crown princess is not as good as the queen mother, that is, she will be pressed by the queen mother for the rest of her life, even if the crown princess becomes the queen in the future, she still has to obey the queen mother, because the queen mother is not only noble and has the name of a virtuous queen, but also in the prince's heart, the queen mother is more important than the princess, and everyone in the harem respects and loves the queen mother, so the princess must endure and endure......
But after she persuaded her, the crown princess temporarily endured it on her face, but the resentment towards the queen mother and even the prince in her heart increased layer by layer, until now the suspicion with the queen mother is getting bigger and bigger.
Last time, the idea of letting the fourth princess of the Cui family come up with a young man, saying that it can improve the relationship between the Lin and Cui families, the queen mother and the crown princess. At the time, she thought it was a good idea, but now it seems to be a bad idea. The relationship between the queen mother and the crown princess has not improved, and the Lin family and the Cui family are now resentful.
The crown princess didn't ask anything, asked who was the one who installed Nian, and didn't ask how Nian was doing now, but just cared about Ye Sang and said, "You were taken away by His Royal Highness the Prince, didn't you suffer anything?" ”
Ye Sang shook his head and said, "Thank you Your Highness for your concern, the slave is fine." After the men took the slave and maid away, they only asked the slave and the maid a few questions, and then let the slave and the maid come back. ”
The crown princess nodded and said, "That's good." (To be continued.) )
