Chapter 555: Background Exposed

Yu An didn't dare to delay too long in Yanqing Palace, so he waited until he killed Xue Yuyan and Brother Qi by being strangled to death by Bai Aya.

And later, Zhou Xianrui and Xiao Jinxuan quarreled in the imperial study, and broke up unhappily, after doing all the math, he immediately went back to the imperial study.

After all, as a person in front of the emperor, leaking the emperor's daily life words and deeds is a capital crime in itself, and Yu An does not dare to let people notice his abnormal movements.

And as soon as Yu An left, when he saw the prison, Empress Chen, who was not less angry and could not attack in Xiao Jinxuan's hands, immediately chuckled with great relief, and said with satisfaction:

"Don't look at how the emperor indulges Xiao Jinxuan on weekdays, after all, he is still the son of the mourning family, and he is connected with me, the queen mother, in major matters. Now that the Empress Dowager Xue is dead, Xiao Jinxuan has also been taken away from the power of the palace, and the evil anger in the heart of the mourning family has finally disappeared. ”

As soon as he heard Chen Hou's words, he seemed to be extremely satisfied with this result.

Ji Lingfeng, who was standing behind Xiangping, flashed a contemptuous chuckle in his eyes hidden behind the mask.

After all, Ji Lingfeng had played for Xue Yi, and the domineering and strong nature of the other party as a woman also made him deeply admire and admire, and he was even more willing to serve loyally.

But as the queen mother, looking at the current Chen family, these little little temporary upper hand of the other party is satisfied with the enemy, Ji Lingfeng really feels that even if she is assisting, it is difficult for the queen mother to do anything.

But in order to get rid of Xiao Jinxuan, Ji Lingfeng can't do without Empress Chen's help now, so he stood up a few steps when he saw him, and then persuaded him:

"The Queen Mother, you must not be careless, this time the Prime Minister's Mansion and the fall of Empress Xue are inseparable from Xiao Jinxuan's figure. Even if the other party is now relieved of the power of the harem, she is still an extremely dangerous existence. And it's just a dispute, Your Majesty attaches so much importance to each other, and the mustard in your heart disappears. Therefore, only if you completely put Xiao Jinxuan in a place of no return, the other party will not become the second Empress Xue and make waves in the Sixth Palace. ”

After all, Xiao Jinxuan used to be a person who had great kindness to the royal family, although since Chen became the queen mother, her temperament has become more and more impersonal, and she loves to hold a shelf, but the most basic rights and wrongs, she still knows in her heart.

Don't look at Empress Chen's anger and did say that she wanted to kill Xiao Jinxuan, but she still knows in her heart the sacrifices and contributions made by the other party to Zhou Xianrui's ascension to the throne in the past.

Therefore, according to Empress Chen's own plan, that is to remove Xiao Jinxuan's rights, if the other party needs to recuperate, then it is okay to stay in the palace.

As long as she, the queen mother, is not suppressed, Empress Chen actually has no intention of killing them all.

Therefore, for Ji Lingfeng's instigating words, Chen Hou hesitated for a moment, and did not immediately agree.

And Xiangping, who also saw this, was because of what happened to Mo Linzhi at the beginning, so she must let Xiao Jinxuan die well.

So I immediately saw that Xiangping grabbed Empress Chen's wrist, and then helped Ji Lingfeng, and said as persuasively as possible:

"Queen Mother, Xiangping knows that you are the most merciful when you eat fasting and chant Buddha. In fact, Xiang'er and Jinxuan used to be sisters, and if they could, their daughter wouldn't want to target her. But the queen mother, think about it, the seventh brother is about to return to the court with the people of the Shuai Mansion. He and Jinxuan's love daughter doesn't need to say much, you should also know it, and now the Xiao family has also changed their opinion of Jinxuan. If you have the support of Seventh Brother and Shuai Fu, Jinxuan's existence is indeed extremely dangerous after thinking about it. Don't forget, the reason why the Xue family has been able to power the harem for decades is that the biggest reliance is that there is a strong mother's family. Really speaking, the Shuai Mansion has hundreds of thousands of troops, and the strength and influence are even higher than the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the Queen Mother really has to guard against it according to Xiang'er. ”

Xue Yi can be said to be a knot in Empress Chen's heart, and when she heard that Xiangping actually compared Xiao Jinxuan to the second Empress Xue, she felt tighter for no reason.

Especially in the comparison between the two, Empress Chen was also shocked to find that Xiao Jinxuan was even stronger than Empress Xue in all aspects, except for the fact that her identity was not on the table.

The more she thought about it, the more terrible Empress Chen became, and after being silent for a while with an extremely solemn expression, she finally said with a murderous look:

"It seems that the mourning family really can't be merciful, although Rui'er is not blindly following Jinxuan's words now. But your seventh brother is too deep, and Yu'er holds the military power in his hands, if he has his help and the secret support of the Shuai Mansion, then Xiao Jinxuan is indeed even more terrifying than Empress Xue back then. ”

Having said this, Empress Chen couldn't help but look at Ji Lingfeng, and then said inquiringly:

"Mo Feng, your previous idea was good, but now that Xianrui has passed Xue Yuyan's matter, he has sobered up a lot and can be regarded as drawing a line with Xiao Jinxuan. Then what else should the mourning family do next, you can tell me and listen. ”

Ji Lingfeng, who was waiting for Empress Chen's words, saw that the other party once again let go of the hesitation in his heart and decided to deal with Xiao Jinxuan.

Immediately, he clearly stated the countermeasures he had thought of earlier and what he would do next:

"Back to the Queen Mother, now Xiao Jinxuan doesn't look at the power of the harem being relieved, but the other party has executed hundreds of people in the palace in the past half a year. Therefore, now the people in the harem, who is not talking about her, are going to change color. So if we want to buy henchmen in the harem, and then go to the other party, Xiao Jinxuan can't do it at all. Because no one in the palace dares to compete with the other party now, it is necessary for the saint to get rid of the other party himself. ”

But as soon as he heard this, Empress Chen waved his hand again and again, and then said with a helpless wry smile:

"Mo Feng, what you said won't work at all, if Xian Rui is willing to do something to Xiao Jinxuan, then why should the mourning family be like this. If you don't have any good ideas, go down and think about it first, and you have to rest when you are tired. ”

saw the dissatisfaction in Empress Chen's expression, but Ji Lingfeng didn't care, and he didn't hurry down according to his words in fear.

On the other hand, after smiling lightly, he immediately bowed down and continued:

"Niangniang, please let the servant finish speaking, Your Majesty looks at Concubine Xiao differently, this is a well-known thing in the palace. But if Xiao Jinxuan is the same as the abolished Empress Dowager Xue, when the harem and the previous dynasty are incompatible. Our Majesty is not a dumb king, how can he continue to indulge the other party. ”

Ji Lingfeng's words made Empress Chen a little confused, after all, she **** stared at Xiao Jinxuan, so she knew better than others.

The other party has not done anything to disrupt the government, so it is too far-fetched to want to convict on this ground.

Seeing Empress Chen's incomprehension and doubts, Xiangping, who was sitting on the side, immediately whispered after exchanging glances with Ji Lingfeng in a vague manner:

"Queen Mother, what Mo Feng refers to is intolerable, but it does not mean that Jinxuan interferes in politics. In fact, there is something that my daughter has never told you about, and you should remember that I once lived in Jinxuan's forsythia home for a period of time because I was depressed. And during that time, you may not know that the relationship between Jinxuan and her biological mother Yang is almost incompatible. And the Yang family also recognized a righteous daughter, and it is better to love than to Jinxuan, the biological daughter, don't you think this matter is too weird. ”

I don't understand why Xiangping led the topic to the relationship between Xiao Jinxuan and her relatives, she doesn't think it has anything to do with bringing down Xiao Jinxuan.

As soon as Xiangping's voice fell, Ji Lingfeng immediately continued:

The Queen Mother may be even more unclear, when Xiao Jinxuan gained power, she not only grounded her biological mother in the courtyard, but also killed the righteous daughter recognized by the other party. There shouldn't have been such a big grudge between mother and daughter, so this aroused the suspicion of the minions. And after many inquiries and evidence collection, the slave finally learned from a servant girl in the Shuai Mansion who originally served the Yang family. Once Xiao Jinxuan and her mother Yang had a very fierce quarrel, and this servant girl hid by the window out of curiosity, and heard Xiao Jinxuan say with her own ears that she was not Yang's daughter, but was raised into Xiao's mansion by the other party. ”

There is nothing in this world that can ensure that nothing is left unnoticed, after Xiao Jinxuan was sure that she was indeed not the biological daughter of the Yang family.

once questioned the Yang family face-to-face, and it was also that time that the words between her and the other party were inadvertently listened to by a little maid.

And the little maid knew that the stakes were very important, and she kept the secret in her heart and didn't dare to talk nonsense, for fear of causing death, and even later left the Shuai Mansion and went to Beppu to be a maid.

However, why did Ji Lingfeng find that servant girl, he told Empress Chen that it was a clue obtained from the recent investigation of Xiao Jinxuan.

In fact, he also concealed what he said, Xiao Jinxuan's life experience became a mystery, and that was when Ji Lingfeng was still working for Zhou Xiantai.

Because he has always been afraid of Xiao Jinxuan, he did not let go of every subtle thing around the other party, so he got this important news.

It's just that when he knew that Xiao Jinxuan's life experience was a mystery, it was already a matter of the time when Empress Xue forced the palace to usurp the throne.

Therefore, at that time, assisting Zhou Xiantai to ascend the throne and become the emperor was the first thing, so this clue has been pressed in Ji Lingfeng's heart, and now it is once again in use.

As soon as she heard this secret, Empress Chen was even surprised that she almost didn't get up from her seat, and after a long pause, she still said in disbelief:

"Mo Feng, if everything you said is true, then Xiao Jinxuan is not from the Shuai Mansion. If the other party does not have this identity, how can he be worthy of becoming the righteous daughter of King Yongchang, let alone the position of harem concubine. This clue you provide is too important, as long as there is sufficient evidence for it. Just by pretending to be a descendant of the Shuai Mansion and entering the harem with an unknown identity, even if Xiao Jinxuan cannot be completely killed, the other party will inevitably be expelled from the palace, and there is no room to turn over. ”

Looking at Empress Chen's expression of excitement as he spoke, Ji Lingfeng immediately saw the stitches and hurriedly admonished:

"The Queen Mother is really wise, and what you said is right, as long as we can grasp the evidence to prove that Xiao Jinxuan is definitely not from the Shuai Mansion. My Great Zhou harem has always only selected women from among the nobles of the family to enter the palace as concubines, this is the ancestral system, even His Majesty cannot disobey. Therefore, the Queen Mother only needs to announce the Yang family into the palace, pry open the other party's mouth, and ask about the old superstitions. In order to appease the harem of the former dynasty, Xiao Jinxuan, a person of unknown origin, will inevitably be ruined and lose everything she has now. And if the Queen Mother is adding something else to Yang's confession, casting a layer of danger on Xiao Jinxuan's origin, then the other party is afraid that it will be difficult to save her life. ”
