Chen Yuanheng's secret letter soon reached Yu'er in the capital. In fact, during this period of time, the situation of Chen Guifei in the capital was very difficult. The Chen family had already stood up, and the posts inviting the Chen family to the banquet were piled up in the Chen family's concierge, and during this period of time, the Chen family's invitations were suddenly much less. The situation has become difficult.

Chen Guifei was very calm, taking care of her affairs as always, and did not show any anxiety at all. But the Chen family, especially the eldest and second masters, couldn't hold their breath.

At this time, Yu'er read the letter and hurriedly showed it to the concubine. The concubine looked at it and frowned.

Yu'er said cautiously: "Niangniang, I think the third uncle's idea is feasible." Why don't we just ......."

Before he finished speaking, he was stopped by Chen Guifei waving her hand. Yu'er hurriedly stopped talking, stood cautiously, and didn't dare to come out.

Chen Guifei put down the letter gently, walked around the room slowly, and then came to the dressing table and sat down gently. Yu'er hurriedly followed, opened the mirror jacket, and put on the makeup clip.

Chen Guifei looked at her very good face in the bronze mirror, and then looked at the dazzling jewelry head in the makeup clip. Now her status is close to that of the queen, and she is also in charge of the affairs of the palace, so the treasures in the palace have recently made her a lot of good jewelry.

Chen Guifei picked them up one by one and admired them seriously.

As soon as Yu'er saw the concubine like this, she knew that the concubine was thinking about a problem, and it was a very serious question. After serving the concubine for so many years, the concubine has always had this habit, and every time she encounters a heavy event that is difficult to choose, she will look at jewelry or silk flowers.

Chen Guifei is still watching one by one. For a while, I picked up a golden phoenix hairpin inlaid with a silk inlaid treasure bead, a little emerald inlaid red gold step shake, and a white jade group of immortals to celebrate the birthday of the four hairpins.

Yu'er didn't dare to come out, for fear of disrupting the concubine's thoughts.

After a meal, Chen Guifei suddenly smiled, like flowers blooming. With a smile on her face, she picked up a flower made of pearls and gemstones and compared it to her temples, Yu'er hurriedly reached out to take it, and carefully put Hua Tian on the head of the concubine. The concubine took a self-portrait in the mirror and was very satisfied.

whispered, "Yu'er, do you have to have a son?" Our Chen family does not have a prince. However, we can have a royal son-in-law? ”

Yu'er's eyes lit up, yes.

Chen Guifei continued: "This time I was going to hit our queen mother by surprise. Hum! ”

Yu'er hurriedly said: "Niangniang's trick is wonderful, it's just which prince the concubine likes, but is it the fourth prince recommended by the third uncle?" ”

Chen Guifei nodded and said, "Yes, it's Liu Yan." He is smart, handsome, and still lives outside the palace, and he also has a friendship with my Lichuan. Such a candidate is just right, hateful. How I hadn't thought of it before. I want to give birth to a prince. Thinking of recognizing the son of a prince, why didn't he think that he could have a son-in-law without a son. ”

Yu'er smiled: "Niangniang's idea is even smarter than that of the third uncle, and the queen must be unexpected." ”

Chen Guifei smiled: "Not only our queen mother can't think of it, but she can't stop it." Even our majesty can't think of it, and it can't be stopped. ”

Yu'er put away her smile, not understanding why Niangniang said that.

Chen Guifei smiled even more beautifully: "Do you think the emperor is on our side?" The emperor is not on either side. The emperor knows all the qiē in this palace. How did my emperor die, the emperor has a mirror in his heart. So, the emperor is also my enemy. ”

This sentence made Yu'er frightened.

Chen Guifei said: "The emperor doesn't like the nobles of the family, do all the concubines of the noble family have a good end?" The former crown princess Li is the emperor's wife. How's it going? The Queen Mother, that's the emperor's own mother, how did she raise it? Our queen mother is still confined in Fengyi Palace. What about me? Hahaha, what about me? My emperor is dead. I was relegated to that remote place in the Smelling Fragrance Pavilion. ”

Yu'er didn't say anything.

Chen Guifei continued: "The emperor hates the women of the family, and he also hates the prince of the girls of the family. Look at the crown prince, there is nothing wrong with it, but he has never been treated well by the emperor, but the three princes born by Wan Shisheng are loved by him. ”

Yu'er thinks about it too.

Chen Guifei said: "Thinking of this, I am glad that my emperor went early, or else, he was also rejected by the emperor." That's not as good as that. ”

Yu'er shuddered, the throne is really a monster.

Chen Guifei continued: "What if the emperor hates the nobles of the family? The nobles of the family had it before the founding of the country, and every family had the power of the Liu family, and the background was profound, and he wanted to defeat the nobles of the family by relying on a small family like Wanjia that was not on the stage, hum, dreaming. ”

Yu'er saw that Chen Guifei paused, and said, "But I don't think there are many big families who are officials in the court." ”

Chen Guifei looked at Yu'er with a smile and said, "Silly girl, you have the same opinion as ordinary people. Now the ministers of the court, in an important position, there are very few people from the family. However, you don't know that the power and power of the family do not come from the court, but from their own clan. ”

At this time, Zi Yu'er was puzzled: "Clan land? ”

Chen Guifei said: "Yes, the clan land of each family is the essence of each family. There none of the decrees was valid from the words of the patriarchs. The fields of various families are connected and control many industries. And most importantly there are private soldiers. To put it mildly, if the various families unite, they have enough ability to overthrow the Liu family's dynasty. Therefore, the royal family is afraid and loves the family. What I am afraid of is that once the families join forces to overthrow them, what I love is that if I get the promotion of the family, I can win the throne. Our emperor was brought out by the Li family. ”

Now Zi Yu'er understood.

Chen Guifei said: "The emperor has worked hard to suppress the power of the family since he was still the crown prince, and the family also understood the emperor's thoughts, so they chose not to clash head-on, but to keep Taoguang obscure, and rarely let people in the family come out. But it took so many years for the emperor and the family to find that it was impossible to overthrow the family by cultivating a small family. So, the emperor remembered me again. ”

Speaking of this, Chen Guifei smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Seeing that the emperor is pampering me now, but I know very well in my heart that this is using me. Hmph, what's the matter with using me, am I not using him? ”

Yu'er was silent.

Chen Guifei said to Yu'er: "Go, the next post will let the old lady come to the palace to visit me, and say that I am a little unwell." ”

Yu'er was busy.

The next day, the old lady Li hurriedly entered the palace, her face anxious. Now the Chen family's situation is not good. If Niangniang had been in Wenxiang Pavilion, it would be fine, and the Chen family would not be reused at most, but now that the Chen family is in the limelight, they want the bamboo basket to draw water again, which is not good. The Chen family was worried, and now the palace suddenly said that the mother was sick, which frightened the Li family, thinking of this, the Li family scolded Chen Yuanheng in his heart, it was all caused by this concubine, or the Chen family is still living a leisurely and rich life.

Many palace maids and eunuchs in the palace saw the appearance of the Li family entering the palace in a hurry, and of course they also saw the sad face of the Li family. Soon, Fengyi Palace got the reward. The queen mother no longer looks crazy before, on the contrary, the queen mother is now dignified and luxurious, and her eyes are full of wisdom.

After the queen got the report, she smiled proudly: "Chen, what's the matter, you can't stand it now." Hmph, delusional to fight with this palace, hum, no way. ”

And the Zhongcui Palace is not the panicked scene imagined by the queen, on the contrary, the Zhongcui Palace is as calm as ever. At this moment, the Li family was looking at the eldest daughter who was a concubine in amazement.

Chen Guifei has always been gorgeous and solemn, drinking tea gently.

After half a ring, Li Shicai said: "Niangniang means to let Wen Feng marry the fourth prince?" ”

Chen Guifei nodded. Li frowned and said: "Although I have always disliked the Wang family, but Wen Feng is the eldest daughter of our Chen family after all, although it is an honor to marry the prince, but the biological mother of the fourth prince died early, and he has always been not treated by the emperor. What's the use of us trying to win him over? In fact, as Wen Feng, he can marry a powerful nobleman, which will help the family even more. ”

Chen Guifei didn't speak, just looked at Yu'er. Yu'er hurriedly said: "Old lady, we are in a bad situation now, all because the little prince born to Concubine Qian died. Therefore, Niangniang came up with an idea to support the four princes. The fourth prince is smart and handsome, only fifteen years old this year, and he is a good match for the eldest girl. In this way, won't our Chen family have a prince? In the future, if it is done, the queen will be the daughter of the Chen family, isn't it the same? ”

As soon as he said this, the Li family suddenly realized, yes, why is everyone trying to become the next emperor's family, can't they become the next emperor's wife?

Li immediately smiled, and said to the eldest daughter: "Niang Niang Shengming, incomparable intelligence, I will go back and tell Yuanfeng and his wife, there should be no accident." ”

Chen Guifei nodded. I chatted with my mother a few more words and gave my mother a few things, so that my mother could go home.

Someone in the palace immediately reported to the queen that the Li family had left the palace with something in a happy expression. Now the queen was puzzled. Why has Chen Guifei already thought of a solution? This is obviously a dead end, right? Years of experience made the queen instinctively puzzled. There must be something exposed, and it must be remedied quickly, but where can it be remedied? For the first time, the queen felt powerless, where did she have a helper, her father and brother were all wine bags and rice bags, her son was also mediocre, and her daughter-in-law was a mediocre person. For the first time, the queen regretted the incompetent daughter-in-law she chose, and she deliberately picked a stupid one in order to be good, but now she regrets it.
