"Who told you to beg them!" Pei Xianjiu was furious, and directly kicked Aunt Qian who was kneeling at his feet to the ground, Aunt Qian not only hurt her body, but even her heart was cold and cold.

"Master, you have not been promoted for so many years for the sake of King Zhou, and now King Zhou is going to kick you away, if we don't think of a way, this will ...... You have to think about your son, he can't be pressed by King Zhou for the rest of his life......" Aunt Qian cried.

"King Zhou is my nephew! Where do you put me in this way! Pei Xijiu put his hands behind his back and paced back and forth.

"That Zhou Wang Fu side room is a positive thing, where will you go!" Aunt Qian rarely said a word out loud, which hit Pei Saijiu's heart.

Needless to say, Pei Saijiu's promotion was Hu Yiyi's handiwork.

"How do you know that the dragon chair has the intention of giving Pei sacrificial wine a promotion?" Qingren Liu felt that Hu Yiyi was full of mysteries, and he could expect a lot of things.

Hu Yi smiled and said: "The one on the dragon chair who now wants to contain the power of King Zhou, he can only start by dividing the power of King Zhou, the Pei family is the first, and when he comes out like this, he will undoubtedly slap the Pei family in the face, what will the Pei family think?" But the one on the dragon chair who gave Pei Sai wine a promotion at this time, what will the Pei family think? What will King Zhou think? ”

"You have already guessed the mind of the person on the dragon chair, but you just put this credit on yourself first, so as to pull the Pei family to your side?" Qingren Liu understood it.

"Actually, it doesn't matter whether I win over the Pei family or not, the important thing is that as long as I let out the wind, I will say that the promotion of Pei Xianjiu is related to me, and the king of Zhou and the Pei family are destined to be divided into two ways, and it is impossible to be the same as before." What Hu Yi wants is to experience what it means to rebel and leave relatives at night, so that he can relieve his hatred.

"I don't know if King Zhou regrets not marrying the Pei family girl now, presumably he doesn't know that there will be so many things behind this, right?" Qingren Liu suddenly sighed a little.

"He definitely won't regret it, he will only blame the Pei family, and then feel that the Pei family is really unreliable, and then rejoice that he is not lucky not to marry the Pei family's daughter." Hu Yi sneered.

There is such a person, no matter what is the fault of others, he is right anyway.

"As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is invincible, how deep is your hatred with King Zhou to understand him?" Qingren Liu asked suddenly.

"How deep the hatred you have with the person on the dragon chair, I have as much hatred as I have with King Zhou." Hu Yiyi looked at Qingren Liu and laughed.

In the spring of March, there was a large-scale personnel transfer between the DPRK and China.

Governor Huo became the governor of the five armies and officially took office; Xiang Zhiwan's father was transferred to the Criminal Department and became a scholar; And after the assassination of the Qing family, Wei Jin, who originally thought that he would not be promoted, actually became a servant of the Ministry of Officials as Hu Yiyi envisioned; Hu Zijue was promoted to the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple; And Zheng Hong's father, Uncle Yingyong, finally received a real position in the Taifu Temple, although the work of the Taifu Temple is idle and there is no oil and water, but it is better than nothing.

In addition to the changes in the manpower on Hu Yiyi's side, the forces on Ye Wuxian's side have also changed.

In general, there are very few people who have been promoted, most of them are promoted and secretly demoted, and some have even been demoted out of the capital, and only a very small number of people who have been secretly promoted have been promoted.

For this reason, Ye Wuxian was so angry that he locked himself in the house alone for three days.

In the end, Ye Wuxian still called Xu Pingchuan and asked Xu Pingchuan what his plan was now.

"The prince doesn't have to be too anxious, because of the last incident, the emperor has suspicion of the prince, this is human nature, and when the days are long, this matter will pass, during this period, as long as the prince shows a look of not fighting or grabbing to make the emperor feel at ease, the prince will be the prince sooner or later, at this time, except for the prince, the emperor has no better candidate, so the prince does not fight is to win." Xu Pingchuan talked eloquently.

"But this king also has a third brother...... "Now that Ye Wuxian has regarded Rong Xu as his biggest enemy."

"The three princes have been fighting at the border for many years, to be honest, there is no hard work and merit, but you look at him, so far he has not even been crowned a king, it can be seen that the emperor does not like it, after all, there is a Dingyuan General Mansion behind him, this is his help, but why not his drag?" Xu Pingchuan looked indifferent, and didn't feel that it was a predicament at all, "The Pei family is now getting farther and farther away from you, in my opinion, it's actually not a bad thing, after all, without the Pei family, you will have no relatives in the future, and the emperor will be more at ease." ”

After listening to the night, there was silence.

"If the prince is not at ease, you can drive the three princes out of the capital, in this case, the prince is deposed, the third prince has no power in the capital, the seventh prince is dead, and the eighth prince is still a milky hairy child, who else can there be in this prince's position except you? So now you just need to stay under the emperor's nose to show that you don't have the slightest dissent, the more anxious you are at the moment, the easier it is to be caught by others, and the gains outweigh the losses. The smile on Xu Pingchuan's face was very calm.

"According to Mr. Xu's words, then I should not do anything now, and I will not care about those who have been degraded?" Ye Wuxian looked at Xu Pingchuan's gaze a little scrutinized.

"No, this group of people is still very important, the prince should appease them in private, tell them the truth, and say that this is just a temporary predicament, and wait until the future...... They are all heroes, presumably they can also understand the hard work of the prince," Xu Pingchuan looked like he was completely thinking about the night, "And those who can't understand and have to ask the prince to give an explanation, the prince will give up, this kind of person who can only share the joys and sorrows will become the grass on the wall sooner or later." ”

Ye Wuxian nodded, his suspicious gaze gradually dissipated, Xu Pingchuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly said that he really needed to be careful in everything by Ye Wuxian's side.

Hu Yiyi has been a little busy recently, on the one hand, she wants to congratulate those who have been promoted, and on the other hand, she has to be busy gathering the people who have been "abandoned" by Ye Wuxian, and slowly devouring the forces of Ye Wuxian, and on the other hand, she has to worry about Hu Wu's side to find out the whereabouts of Hu Wu and the group of people from the Western Regions.

In the lively March, some people are happy and some are sad, hundreds of families are in a thousand states, and people are warm and cold, only they know themselves.

And the envoys sent by various countries to congratulate Emperor Yonghe on his birthday are almost arriving one after another, and Hu Zijue is so busy that he can't see anyone all day.

Before these envoys arrived, there was a major event in the palace - the imperial concubine Pei died of illness.

The imperial concubine's illness was caused by the fact that Ye Wuxian wanted to straighten out the side concubine, and now that she died of illness, the Metropolitan Procuratorate impeached Ye Wuxian for not being filial.

"Are these people full every day and have nothing to do! Keep an eye on the king all day! Ye Wuxian was furious, and fired at the advisors under his hands, including Xu Pingchuan.

And these strategists knew that Ye Wuxian had been in a bad mood recently, and no one dared to provoke Ye Wuxian, so they could only let Ye Wuxian get angry first and dissipate his anger, only Xu Pingchuan stayed alone, and he stopped talking.

"Mr. Xu can say whatever he wants!" Ye Wuxian rubbed his eyebrows, looking tired.

"Has the prince ever investigated the death of the imperial concubine?" Xu Pingchuan's face was also a little not good-looking.

"What do you mean?" Ye Wuxian's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a little danger, but he was not aiming for Xu Pingchuan.

"I just think that the death of the imperial concubine is too coincidental, she is upright and in her prime, and her body has always been healthy, how could she die of illness......" Xu Pingchuan's gaze was also a little dark.

"You mean to say that there is another hidden reason for the death of the concubine?" Ye Wuxian's face immediately became difficult to look at.

"I'm just guessing, the specific thing is up to the prince to check before he can decide, the imperial concubine is much more important to the prince than a Pei family......" Xu Pingchuan's words were not finished.

"What the hell does Sir mean, you might as well say it directly." Ye Wuxian's brow furrowed.

"Could it be the emperor's ......" Xu Pingchuan hurriedly stopped his mouth after saying a word, and explained: "The prince atoned for his sins, I just guessed, and I said nonsense......"

Ye Wuxian's gaze began to darken, he glanced at Xu Pingchuan, then withdrew his gaze, and asked, "Why do you have such a guess, let's hear it first." ”

Xu Pingchuan glanced at Ye Wuxian, and saw that Ye Wuxian didn't look like he was angry because of what he just said, so he was relieved and said: "From the emperor's promotion of Lord Pei and the subsequent suppression of the prince's manpower, it can be seen that the emperor is deliberately curbing the power of the prince, and the death of the imperial concubine is said to be too much of a coincidence, so I thought of the emperor's head." ”

"According to the current situation, if there is no imperial concubine, you are not so familiar with the control of the palace, even if you have any ideas in the future, I am afraid it will not be so easy to realize, in this way, the emperor will be much more relieved." Xu Pingchuan continued.

The night was silent.

"Of course, all this is just speculation now, but the death of the imperial concubine is certain, so the prince should go and investigate first." Xu Pingchuan sighed.

"This king knows, go down first, and don't say what you say today to anyone." Ye Wuxian admonished.

Xu Pingchuan bowed his head and left.

After walking out of the house, Xu Pingchuan thought about his words carefully, and felt that there were no loopholes, so he felt a little more relieved.

Although Ye Wuxian didn't fully believe what he said now, but as he said, there was something inevitable about the death of the imperial concubine, and Ye Wuxian would naturally investigate, and Hu Yiyi had already prepared it, Ye Wuxian would definitely find some plausible clues, the seeds of doubt in his heart had been planted, and when he found out the clues, he would believe that the imperial concubine was killed by Emperor Yonghe in order to curb his power.

As for how the imperial concubine died, this is not important, and no one cares.

However, Hu Yi really knew what the imperial concubine was, and this news was brought by Yezhen, so she couldn't believe it.

The imperial concubine Pei died at the hands of Empress Hu.

Since Ye Shao died, Queen Hu has been completely silent, closed the door of Yikun Palace, no one sees, I heard that she set up a Buddhist hall in Yikun Palace, eat fasting and chant Buddha all day long, the power of the harem has all gone to the hands of the imperial concubine, and Queen Hu, the queen has died in name.

For Queen Hu, Hu Yiyi is guilty, after all, she can't escape the blame for Ye Shao's death, and it is normal for Queen Hu to complain about her, which is understandable, so after Queen Hu no longer sees Hu Yiyi, Hu Yiyi will still ask Ye Shu to take care of Queen Hu more.

No one thought that Queen Hu would kill the imperial concubine silently.

"Ye Wuxian killed Ye Shao, the revenge of killing the son is not something that can be dissipated by eating fasting and reciting Buddha, Queen Hu retreated to a corner probably to avoid its edge, and then wait for the opportunity to do it, but she will forbear." Ye Shu sighed, didn't know what to remember, and pursed her lips slightly.
