Chapter 160: Unexpected
Feng Jinghuang looked at Gu Lingxin, raised his hand, the slap was just about to fall, and he was frozen in mid-air, and a pair of eyes just looked at Gu Lingxin at this time in a daze.
"Whatever you want! How happy are you in these Four Princes' Mansion, how can you come, I'm afraid I can't control you. Feng Jinghuang smiled bitterly before sitting down slowly.
Feng Jinghuang was also upset about the recent changes in the Yang family, but he was very aware of the current situation, just without the backer of the Yang family, if he turned his face with Gu Ling, who had the support of Prime Minister Gu Tiandao behind him, then the advantage he had built up with great difficulty over the years was estimated to be gone soon.
Therefore, although Feng Jinghuang felt guilty about the Yang family and the Yang family's hearts, he would never offend Prime Minister Gu Tiandao for them.
Gu Lingxin glanced at Feng Jinghuang with a little surprise, and didn't say anything more.
It didn't take long for Yang Pingzhi to hang herself in the Four Princes' Mansion to reach Yang Pinglan's ears, and Yang Pinglan, who was already upset, was even more upset.
Although they knew that they sent Yang Pingzhi to the Four Princes' Mansion, it was because the Yang family had no confidence in her, the eldest daughter, and they didn't believe that Yang Pinglan, the eldest daughter, could be favored by Feng Jinglan, but in the end, both of them were sisters with the same father and mother, and now that they learned that their sister died tragically in the palace, Yang Pinglan's heart was torn apart.
At this time, Yang Pinglan felt remorse in her heart: if she hadn't provoked Chu Jiaorou, she would not have caused her father to end miserably, nor would she have caused the Yang family to be defeated, and she would not have caused her sister to die tragically. If she could do it all over again, she would definitely abide by her duty, even if she was lonely and widowed in the palace for the rest of her life, she would never touch the hornet's nest.
"Master, I heard that Miss Hinozhi was still pregnant in her womb when she died."
Yang Pinglan smiled bitterly, glanced at the slave maid, got up and walked towards the prince's bedroom, the person who should have been avoided the most was now Yang Pinglan had to go to Feng Jinglan's side in person.
As soon as she arrived outside Feng Jinglan's palace pavilion, Yang Pinglan took a deep breath and knelt down facing the front of Feng Jinglan's palace pavilion, looking at the door in a daze, her empty eyes couldn't play any scheming, if it wasn't for Mr. Qingchen to see it when he came, maybe no one would have said a word to Feng Jinglan in the house.
The people in this prince's mansion all know that Yang Pinglan has completely lost power, even if she is still in the high position of the side concubine, it will be a matter of time before she falls from the high position, so who wants to work for a person who will have to go down from the high position sooner or later?
The two guards watched coldly, even if the sky was already cloudy, no one moved to ask Feng Jinglan in the house.
Mr. Qingchen came to the back room and saw Feng Jinglan sitting down with a slight smile.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows that Yang Pingzhi's hanging in the Four Princes' Mansion is really unexpected!" Mr. Qingchen stroked the placket of his clothes and sighed: "One corpse, two lives." ”
Feng Jinglan's eyes were not shocked: "Since the Yang family is of no use to my fourth emperor brother, and I don't want to offend the Chu family because of her, there is no need to stay, originally I thought that the fourth emperor brother would kill the eggs and take the eggs, but I didn't expect that even the children of the Yang family disdained to stay." ”
"But I heard that the person is the fourth princess and concubine, and she was forced to die." Mr. Qingchen looked at Feng Jinglan, and his eyes kept observing the look in Feng Jinglan's eyes: "His Royal Highness the Prince, believe it or not?" ”
Feng Jinglan paused, and then nodded for a long time and said, "I've heard of it." ”
"By the way, His Royal Highness the Prince, Concubine Yang has probably been kneeling outside your house for a long time, does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince not want to see him, or did the guards outside not mention it to His Royal Highness the Prince?" Mr. Qingchen asked.
"Kneeling? Then let her kneel......" Feng Jinglan took a sip of tea and thought: People who do wrong things should always be punished.
thinks that there has always been no husband and wife affection between himself and Yang Pinglan, except because of the Yang family's status among the ministers, Feng Jinglan generously gave Yang Pinglan a position as a side concubine, and then Feng Jinglan didn't care about Yang Pinglan's life or death at all.
Yang Pinglan has been stirring up trouble in the palace for many years, and this person should not have stayed in the prince's mansion for a long time.
"I'm afraid there will be a lot of rain in this weather?" Mr. Qingchen looked at the sky outside and sighed, the smile on his face unchanged.
"When it rains, people will always leave." Feng Jinglan said in a low voice.
At this time, Yang Pinglan, who was kneeling outside the palace pavilion, looked at the surrounding weather, took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and did not intend to get up from the ground at all, waiting for Feng Jinglan to see himself with a soft heart.
Chu Jiaorou and Qinglan beside her passed by, saw Yang Pinglan's embarrassed appearance at this time, and looked at the sky again, Chu Jiaorou looked at Qinglan and said in a low voice.
"Go outside and get two oil-paper umbrellas, I think it's going to rain on this day."
"Master, your body and bones have not fully recovered these days, and you should go back to breathe in this rainy weather, what are you doing here."
"Qinglan, I'll let you go, you go, how can there be so many words." Chu Jiaorou said in a low voice, and then slowly walked behind Yang Pinglan, looked at Yang Pinglan's appearance at this time, and said with a long sigh: "What is Sister Yang doing here?" It looked like it was about to rain on this day, and Sister Yang didn't go back to rest. ”
"Concubine Chu, are you here to see my jokes today?" Yang Pinglan responded in a low voice, her originally closed eyes opened slightly, and she looked ahead blankly.
Chu Jiaorou looked at Yang Pinglan quietly with a pair of soft eyes: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not come out to see you, there are some things you have to bear, a fetus in my womb will be buried with the entire Yang family, but I'm really sorry." ”
"Concubine Chu, what's the point of saying these sour words now?" Yang Pinglan smiled faintly, still maintaining her initial indifference.
Life and death Yang Pinglan has seen through it, and things have come to this point, beyond Yang Pinglan's expectations.
However, since there is no room to turn back, Yang Pingzhi still took her life in the Four Princes' Mansion for nothing, and Yang Pinglan has nothing to fear.
Coming to this prince's mansion, Yang Pinglan also thought about cumin, but she Yang Pinglan is the daughter of the Yang family, and she is the daughter of the future queen arranged by the Yang family to enter the prince's mansion.
Chu Jiaorou listened to Yang Pinglan's laughter, she didn't feel good in her heart, but she didn't do anything out of the ordinary to Yang Pinglan outside the Prince's Mansion, and she still maintained a smile on her face and asked, "What is Concubine Yang laughing at like this?" Can you know a thing or two? ”
"Chu Jiaorou, the fetus in your womb has something to do with me." Yang Pinglan responded, looking at Chu Jiaorou, consciously Chu Jiaorou was pitiful: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince secretly instructed this matter, otherwise a small sachet, do you think you can really escape the eyes of those imperial doctors and His Royal Highness the Prince?" ”
Chu Jiaorou clenched her fists, and the smile on her face was a little difficult to hold on from time to time: "Concubine Yang, you don't talk nonsense outside the palace of His Royal Highness the Prince, do you think I will still believe your little concubine to sow discord?" ”
"Sow discord?" Yang Pinglan stood up, her knees were already painful, her hands patted the dust on her knees, and her lips slowly moved closer to Chu Jiaorou's ear: "How can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince let you conceive a child?" Your Chu family's military power has made His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the entire royal family fearful, if you give birth to a man and become a princess or even a queen, who will be at ease? ”
The matter was irreparable, Yang Pinglan simply broke the jar, paused, and said: "So it is impossible for you to have a son in your belly, for this country, for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to ascend to the throne smoothly one day, Chu Jiaorou, you are also a poor woman." ”
Listening to Yang Pinglan's words, Chu Jiao's gentle smile froze on her face, thinking of the bits and pieces of those days in her mind, she only felt that she had fallen into the cold abyss, her eyes turned to Yang Pinglan beside her, and blurted out word by word.
"You're about to lose your own life, and you're still in the mood to stir up trouble between me and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Chu Jiaorou's hand gently brushed Yang Pinglan's cheek, and sneered: "It's enough for my child to repay your entire Yang family, it won't be long before you have to accompany your underground sister, right?" ”
Raindrops fell from the sky, from small to large, and it was pouring rain for a while, Qinglan took an umbrella and hurriedly held it up for Chu Jiaorou, holding another oil-paper umbrella in her hand, looked at Chu Jiaorou, and then looked at Yang Pinglan standing in the rain.
"Master? This other umbrella? ”
Chu Jiaorou glanced at Yang Pinglan indifferently, and said coldly: "Originally, I thought of you Yang Pinglan's pity, so I made a special trip to send you an umbrella, but now that I think about it, the poor person must have something to hate!" ”
Saying this, Chu Jiaorou slightly curled the corners of her lips and let out a chuckle, Yang Pinglan watched Chu Jiaorou's back slip weakly on the ground, the rain soaked her hair, making her whole person deep in the mud, and there was only blankness in her eyes.
Originally, Yang Pinglan said those words just to stimulate Chu Jiaorou, but when she thought of the current situation of the Yang family, Yang Pinglan slowly realized that even she herself had fallen into Feng Jinglan's trap, Feng Jinglan did not intend to leave her Yang Pinglan's life from the beginning, and wanted to use Yang Pinglan's actions to forcibly pull her father down from the position of the head of the household.
The rain became heavier and heavier, Yang Pinglan sat outside the door of the prince's mansion and smiled stupidly, her eyes couldn't help but look around, a little weak.
After a long time, an oil-paper umbrella was held above Yang Pinglan's head, Yang Pinglan's heart was filled with joy, and when she turned around, she saw Qiu Ting standing behind her, and Gu Tianyan and Luping not far away.
And at this moment, what kind of shame is it to be cared about by a person who makes Yang Pinglan resentful!
She staggered to her feet, looked at Gu Tianyan who was standing opposite, sneered, and stared at Gu Tianyan with wooden eyes, and said with a smile: "Gu Liangdi thinks I'm finished, can you be okay?" ”
"Not really." Gu Tianyan replied unmoved.
"Then why do you want to harm me to the current situation, Gu Tianyan, you femme fatale! Poisonous woman! Yang Pinglan stepped forward to overthrow Gu Tingyan to the ground, but was grabbed by Qiu Ting, and Yang Pinglan was even more furious: "You slut, you want to bully me with Gu Tingyan, won't you let me feel better?" After that, Yang Pinglan stopped and pointed at Gu Qianyan in front of her: "You will definitely die a good death, Gu Tingyan!" You're going to die! ”
"You were aggressive first, weren't you? Concubine Yang? Gu Tianyan stood under the umbrella, wrapped in a tea-white coat, and looked at Yang Pinglan and gasped: "Isn't this the reason for being cocooned and self-bound?" ”
"Cocooning yourself? If you want to blame yourself, how can you get the favor of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but I can't! Yang Pinglan looked at Gu Tianyan and shook her head: "Are you relying on this face to confuse His Royal Highness the Prince?" Gu Tianyan, if I had known that your face was so powerful, I should have tried to destroy your face as soon as I entered the palace. ”
"Do you still think that everyone else is to blame for everything that happened to you?" Gu Tianyan frowned and asked.
"Am I wrong? For the sake of the entire Yang family, I have been strategizing in the palace, but in the end I became the abandoned son of the Yang family, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince defeated the Yang family's weapon. Yang Pinglan said, tears flowing down the cheeks that had been spent, looking pitiful, and it could make people feel pity.
Gu Tianyan took a long breath, and finally looked at Yang Pinglan helplessly, shook his head, and sighed: "In this harem place of right and wrong, which one is not involuntarily." ”
The rain in the sky was getting heavier and heavier, and the skirts of several people were inevitably covered with mud.
Yang Pinglan looked at Gu Tingyan, and suddenly thought that Gu Tingyan was deliberately approaching Qiu Ting, and his purpose was obvious, and she suddenly burst out laughing.
"Gu Liangdi, you knew what my ending would be from the beginning? Actually, in the final situation between me and the Yang family, Gu Liangdi is also an accomplice! You have my sister's life tied to you, the life of the entire Yang family, you will be punished! Gu Liangdi! ”
"Concubine Yang, not everything has to go according to what you want, do you want to live, want to get ahead? Don't I want to? Gu Tianyan looked at Yang Pinglan's current appearance, and was inexplicably angry: "Why do I have to suffer the retribution you said for the evil consequences of your self-inflicted food!" ”
Yang Pinglan was stunned, she never thought that one day Gu Qianyan would speak like this, she stared at Gu Tingyan for a long time with a pair of eyes, got up and stumbled away from under the umbrella.
Qiu Ting glanced at the back of Yang Pinglan leaving, just like a lost dog, he didn't know whether to catch up with him, so he could only look back at Gu Qianyan.
Gu Tingyan stared coldly at Yang Tinglan's back as she drifted away, stroking her lower abdomen, and didn't understand why the deceit between Chu Jiaorou and Yang Tinglan would eventually affect her.
originally thought that as long as Yang Tinglan's matter was solved, Gu Qianyan would be able to stay in this palace peacefully until he left, but who knew that the trouble was already unforgiving, and he was pestering Gu Tingyan and refused to let go.
Gu Tianyan let out a long breath, his eyes drooped slightly, and he shook his head facing Qiu Ting's position.
"Let's go back!" Gu Tianyan said tastelessly. (To be continued.) )
