Yun Fenghuang looked around, and saw that Chunjia and Empress Dowager Yuan were chatting enthusiastically, and the rest of the people were listening attentively, and no one noticed the palace people, so they leaned back, turned their heads sideways and whispered to Qingren: "You go and ask what's going on?" ”

Qingren went once, and when he came back, he whispered a few words in his ear, and Yun Fenghuang frowned slightly.

At this moment, he was noticed by the queen, and Gu Zhen asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”

"Some kid's thing." Yun Fenghuang nodded at the Qing people, watched the Qing people leave quickly, and said casually, "King Qin and Zhaoqing are naughty, and the concubine let the Qing people watch it." ”

Gu Zhenhu looked at her suspiciously, suspecting that the brother and sister of King Qin Zhaoqing were bullying people again, so he immediately let his close attendants go out to take a look.

The other concubines were a little nervous when they saw this, because they were worried that the queen and the concubine would tear up on the Holy Birthday Festival.

In the evening, the emperor went to the Lanzhou Night Rain Pavilion to know what had happened when the banquet was lively: "Yushan is gone??? What's going on? ”

Yun Fenghuang sighed: "Didn't Yun An resign from the birthday banquet of the Empress Dowager because of the occasional cold?" Yushan and Jinxi went to greet her, but she was afraid that she would be sick and give the children, so she didn't see her. It's just that Jinxi is still young, and if he was taken away, he was taken away, and Yushan was bigger, and he was more attached to his mother, and he refused to leave. Yun An listened to the door with a soft heart, and let the child play at the door, and she could occasionally accompany her to talk. ”

Although Yushan and Jinxi are both girls, the Zheng family does not dare to slack off on the sisters who have the blood of the Gongxiang family, and the place where the eldest princess of Yun'an lives, even if it is another courtyard, is also specially picked up, and all the rockery lotus ponds have been cleared, so as not to let the children's family be careless and cause trouble.

Therefore, whether it is the eldest princess of Yun'an, or the slaves who are serving, they are all relieved to let the county lord of Yushan frolic in the courtyard where Yun'an lives.

But I didn't want to, the lord of Yushan fell to the ground while playing!

At first, the people thought that the county lord had tripped and fell, and they hurriedly went up to help, but when they saw that she was unconscious with such a little effort, they realized that something was wrong, so they hurriedly asked people to ask for a doctor.

"As a result, the imperial doctor went over to take a look and said that he was poisoned, but how could the county lord be poisoned? The nurse who was waiting listened to the removal of the princess's dress, and found that there were two tooth marks on her ankles. Yun Fenghuang said, "There is already a black purple near the wound...... The doctor tried his best to save the child, but the child was too young to be saved in the end. ”

Chunjia had a calm face: "Although the courtyard is located in the mountains, not to mention that every year when I come to live, I will send people to repel insects, and a large amount of realgar will be sprinkled on the left and right walls of the courtyard every day...... How could a poisonous snake jump into the inner court and even hurt the county lord's life?! ”

If the other courtyard is so unsafe, wouldn't it be even more dangerous to live in the mountains and have its own palace with mountains and lakes?

Yun Feng Huang wanted to speak and stopped.

Seeing the emperor's urging gaze, Fang Cai said: "The nurse found that the sachet that was originally tied to the county lord's ankle to ward off insects has been replaced with a prescription to attract snakes. ”

"......" Chunjia calmed down when he heard this, he pondered for a moment and said slowly, "Ah Huang, what do you think?" ”

"The concubine only thinks that the person who started it is really vicious, and even such a small county lord can bear it!" Yun Fenghuang groaned, "It's just...... If the county lord of Yushan is the daughter of His Royal Highness Minghui, the concubine body can still be understood. After all, His Royal Highness Minghui's actions are not a little headache. But she is the daughter of Yun'an, this ...... As a concubine, I really can't imagine that anyone will hate Her Highness so much that she can't even let go of a child? ”

Chun Jia was silent for a while, and said, "Maybe it's not necessarily because of Yun'an, maybe it's because of the previous generation. ”

"Your Majesty is saying that someone wants to be unfavorable to Xiaozong's bones and blood?" Yun Fenghuang actually thought of this just now, after all, this is not the first time that Xiaozong's blood has happened - the first time that Princess Sui'an was poisoned before, in fact, there is no clear statement so far.

The imperial concubine checked and checked, but she still couldn't figure out who was intent on leaving Sui'an without an heir.

Now that Yun'an's child has an accident again, it is difficult not to think of it. Considering the ordinary people of these two concubines, as well as the situation of the foreign family, it is really not like they themselves can fall into such a grievance situation.

That can only be thought of from their parents.

For example, filial piety, or even the Divine Sect.

Yun Fenghuang pretended to be surprised, and said with a frown, "But...... Ji has been ambushed? ”

If you want to say that the most reason to murder the blood of Xiaozong, it is naturally the Ji family.

After all, Xiaozong himself was forced to death by this foreigner.

However, the remnants of the Ji family are now too busy to take care of themselves, can they really reach out to the two eldest princesses?

Chunjia said lightly: "It may not be filial piety, it may also be the ...... of the Divine Sect."

Because now it is the imperial concubine who is speaking alone in the inner room, and there are no idle people waiting on the side, the emperor also said bluntly, "Back then, the Divine Sect seized the prince, and the means were quite ruthless. For example, Dongxing's aunt and grandmother have already come to an excellent end, but not only was the title of her husband's family stripped away, but since then, she has been in obscurity for many years, and she does not dare to show her head at all. ”

Dongxing is a good end, not to mention other princes and princesses.

Especially the prince.

It is said that in order to prevent accidents, the first thing Shenzong did after coming to power was to send many brothers and nephews and grandchildren to serve the first emperor.

At that time, the princes and grandsons recorded on the jade plate, one was counted as one, and none of them were spared.

Even the in-laws of these people are old, and none of them have a good end, basically starting with the destruction of the clan.

This is also the reason why Shenzong later relied on the Ji clan extraordinarily, after all, most of the temples at that time were emptied, and he really couldn't control the great dynasty by himself.

Calculating the time, this is already a matter of several decades ago, in the eyes of Chunjia and Yun Fenghuang's generation, even if they know that the heads of the people killed by the Divine Sect at that time were rolling and how many princes and nobles were bleeding in the mansions, it is difficult to be touched, after all, time has changed.

Coupled with these tragedies, they are not very close to their elders and relatives, they did not grow up in this kind of hatred and resentment, and of course there is no unforgettable concept after hearing it.

But......

If those people really still have fish that have slipped through the net, how can they easily forget it?

"Your Majesty, the people at that time had this reason to target His Majesty's blood and bones of the Divine Sect." Yun Fenghuang said, "But...... Shenzong pursued them so strictly, even if he survived by luck, I am afraid that he would be reluctant to survive, but where did he get the confidence to attack the eldest princesses? ! ”

Although the two eldest princesses of Yun'an and Sui'an are protected tightly, they can't be compared with Chunjia, in the end, they are golden branches and jade leaves, but not just anyone can murder them.

Chunga said: "Many of those people are Sejong's beloved sons and daughters, and some are emperors and grandsons who grew up on Sejong's knees. Inside and outside the palace ban, he must be very familiar. Since they were able to escape under the pursuit of the Divine Sect, it can be seen that there are people who sympathize with them inside and outside the palace, up and down the temple...... It is also reasonable to be able to murder the two royal sisters in this way. ”

Sejong is the father of Shinzong.

The thin heirs of the Gongxiang clan were caused by the seizure of the prince during the reign of Sejong.

Sejong himself has prosperous heirs, and there are nearly 30 princes alone, and there are even more princesses. There are so many children, and there are about forty of them who have grown to adulthood.

It's just that he has a bit of a wife in his life, and there are four queens before and after, not to mention the early death of the queen of Yuan, and the eldest son who left behind also died when he was less than ten years old; The second and third followed, one of them came out of nothing, and the other gave birth to two princesses; After the fourth succession, he finally gave birth to a healthy prince, but at this time, Sejong was almost fifty years old! The eldest grandson is going to get married!

It is conceivable that none of the older princes, who are about to become grandfathers, are willing to embrace such a child as a prince.

The fourth successor was also a smart man, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he declared that his son was weak and sick, and was not suitable to assume the position of prince.

So the situation of this sister-in-law is much better, and the older princes, because everyone is a concubine, in the case of a concubine, the eldest son of the concubine cannot get the unanimous support of the ministers, so it is natural that they start a fight.

Shenzong is the fifth son of Sejong, none of the four brothers above is a fuel-efficient lamp, and he can successfully seize the throne naturally after countless ups and downs, and even a year before Sejong's death, he was almost planted in the hands of his stepmother and younger brother...... Yes, the so-called abandonment of the position of the prince by the fourth successor is just a pretense, her son was unsteady in walking at that time, and at this time he sat on the throne of the prince, not to mention whether he could deal with many young and powerful stepsons, just said that if her son was the same as the son of the queen of Yuan, he would be cold if he did not sit on the throne of God, then she could still have a good end?

Therefore, he first showed the enemy weakness, put on a posture that he just wanted to protect his son's wife and live a peaceful life, and sat back and watched the older stepsons decide the victory, before giving the winner a fatal blow and waiting for the harvest of fruits.

That time, Shenzong was deceived into the palace by the news that Yishi Zong suddenly had a stroke and asked him to enter the palace immediately in case there was a change, and Shenzong only said that the young stepmother's move was a deliberate show of favor for the future treatment of the mother and son, but out of the experience accumulated from fratricide, he still cautiously wore soft armor in his robe before going out.

So he was ambushed at the gate of the palace.

If it weren't for the soft armor, the subsequent design would have been successful.

After that night, he knew that he was powerless, so he hugged his parents and children to Sejong, asked Sejong for protection, and committed suicide by going back to the palace to swallow gold...... At that time, Sejong was getting older, and with the increasing fullness of his wings when Shenzong seized the throne, he could no longer command this son, so he could only use various promises and pleadings to ask him not to anger his younger brother.

As a result of Sejong's negotiations with Shenzong, Sejong kept the prince when Sejong was alive, and a year later, Sejong died, and Shenzong personally pinched off the neck of this younger brother and asked him to serve Sejong.

Royal fratricide has always been nothing new, but after he has ascended the throne as the emperor, he will act and speak with some face, let alone kill his brother himself, or a brother who is still an underage.

Divine Sect did this, which shows how miserable it is to be pitted.

Of course, there is also gossip that this is because Shenzong has never been Sejong's favorite child, but it is the prince who came out of the prince, as well as the eldest princess of Dongxing and other princes and princesses, who are Sejong's true heart.

He was really capable of ascending the throne.

Yun Fenghuang carefully recalled the past and said cautiously: "Then what does Your Majesty mean ......?" ”

"These are all things about Chen Sesame and rotten grain, and turning them out is just a royal joke." Chunjia muttered, "There is no need to say it to the outside world. It's just that the first emperor has so little blood and bones, if one of them has three long and two short, so that I go underground, how can I explain to the first emperor? So the check still has to be checked. ”

His throne came from Xiaozong, and Xiaozong's throne came from Shenzong...... What good is it for him to bring up the past of the slaughter of his siblings by the Divine Sect?

If he wasn't worried that the real culprit behind the scenes would even anger him, the heir of filial piety, he wouldn't have bothered to investigate thoroughly, just arrest the two of them and make a perfunctory reason for the past...... After all, Shenzong's actions at that time were also the Son of Heaven, he could understand it, but it was not glorious in the end.

"Your Majesty said yes." Yun Fenghuang sighed and said, "It's just that Yushan is really a pity, but it is ...... that Yun'an can mourn Originally, such a big matter should have been told to His Majesty in the morning, but this day is special after all. The concubine was afraid of colliding with the Queen Mother, so she hid it. ”

Chun Jia actually thinks the same way, although he has some feelings for Yun'an, how can he compare with Empress Dowager Yuan?

For the sake of Yun'an's daughter, Chunjia was unwilling to touch the moldy head of the Empress Dowager Yuan.

But as the heir of Xiaozong, if this matter was told to him at the time, he really couldn't pretend not to know.

Fortunately, Yun Fenghuang stopped him.

Of course, he didn't blame the concubine at this moment, and said: "Since the imperial doctor failed to save Yushan after rushing over, even if I go, it will be the same result." When the time comes to meet Yun An, maybe she will be even more sad...... Alas, don't talk about it, it's so late, let's settle it, Ming'er, you and the queen will go to see Yun'an on my behalf. ”

With the dignity of the queen and the favor of the concubine, the two of them went to condolence together, which was extraordinarily gracious.

At noon the next day, even though the eldest princess of Yun'an and her husband were still grieving, they came out to greet them with emotions when they received the news.

Gu Zhen stepped forward to help the eldest princess to excuse her, said a few words of comfort, and then looked at the ignorant little girl next to her, sighed and touched her head: "Don't think about it so much, your mother and daughter are not fated enough, and you can't keep it forcibly. Besides, you still have Jinxi. ”

Yun Fenghuang also accompanied him and said two words of comfort, hugged Jinxi again, and promised that the emperor would thoroughly investigate the person who plotted to kill the county lord...... I went back to the palace.

On the way, the queen sighed with emotion: "What are the lives of the three eldest princesses of the first emperor?" None of them have ever been comfortable. ”

"The concubine body that Niangniang said doesn't like to listen to it, although His Royal Highness Sui'an has no heirs, he can respect the cousin of the concubine like a guest and love harmony, why is it not comfortable?" Yun Fenghuang immediately said, "What you said is as if the marriage that His Majesty specially picked for them did not go well. ”

"......" The queen knew that she was speechless, and she was afraid of being caught, so she choked and didn't say anything, but said, "Yushan is really pitiful." ”

The concubine returned to the palace, first went to the Xingxin Hall to see Chunjia, and said that she had condolences to the eldest princess, and Chunjia encouraged her to let the queen go by herself, but left the concubine to speak.

This made Gu Zhen's heart more and more depressed, pursed his lips, and then left with a wooden face.

It's just that the imperial concubine didn't care, Chunjia waited for the queen to go out, and then said: "Just now, the Imperial City Division came up, saying that it was found out that the steward in charge of purchasing in Yun'an's courtyard had bought poisonous snakes in private, and under torture, the steward confessed that because he had been punished by Yun'an before, he was vicious and wanted to use poisonous snakes to intimidate Yun'an, and he accidentally killed the county lord by mistake." ”

Yun Fenghuang said: "Who is this prevarication? If it's the kind of snake that scares people, as for the county lord losing his life? ”

"This person is a top tank, and the Imperial City Division doesn't need to interrogate him." Chunjia sighed lightly and frowned, "It's just that the steward is the son of the Zheng family, and he has been under his command since Zheng Gufang had some status and status, otherwise he wouldn't be able to sit in the position of purchasing." It is said that such people should not be easily betrayed. His family and relatives showed no signs of being blackmailed......"

Although there are still many things that can't be figured out, Chunjia still decided to close the case like this.

After all, this is similar to the last time Sui'an, the dignified county lord was murdered, and the emperor personally investigated thoroughly, and the result will last forever, which is too incompetent, right?

As the Son of Heaven, it is embarrassing enough to not be able to protect his niece, and he even procrastinates to catch a murderer, how can such an emperor govern the world?

So the next day, the palace announced that the procurement manager was the culprit, and directly sentenced the nine clans.

In private, of course, Chunjia still let the Imperial City Division check it, and even scolded Sun Yu for being a bloody dog, saying that he was a waste, the previous Sui'an, this time Yushan, none of them could really get to the bottom of it: "What about next time?" Next time, if my child makes a mistake, do you plan to let me find a random slave to come out and take the blame?! Where is this to blame the culprit, this is simply to blame you waste! ”

Sun Yu wiped his cold sweat and trembled, almost frantically urging the operation of the Imperial City Division and not saying anything, just said that in the palace, after the Holy Birthday Festival, it was almost time to pack up and prepare to go back, but it was coming, and I don't know if it was criticized by Chunjia, and there was really an accident with the emperor's heir!

The only eighth prince in the palace who has the blood of the Yuan family is sick.

The cause of the queen's announcement was the cold in the mountains, and the palace people who served the Eighth Prince were not careful, so they put the cradle in the window and asked the Eighth Prince to blow the wind for a while.

There is nothing wrong with this reason, the child is young and weak, not to mention blowing too much mountain wind, even if he wears less, it is not impossible to catch a cold.

The problem is that Empress Dowager Yuan doesn't believe it.

This pot has to blame the queen herself, in order to let the three princes be treated differently by the Empress Dowager Yuan, she made up a hint that the king of Chu hated the eighth prince and had a detrimental move to the eighth prince, thanks to the three princes cherishing his younger brother, which protected the eighth prince without hindrance, this is good, maybe because this was said two days ago, the Empress Dowager Yuan still remembers it vividly, and when she heard the news, the first thing that came to mind was to doubt the king of Chu.

She suspected that the palace people who did not serve well were to take the blame for the King of Chu, and the reason why the eighth prince was sick was because of the King of Chu!

This is the only prince who has the blood of the Yuan family, and the Empress Dowager Yuan immediately blew up, calling the queen to a showdown, and asking her to leave the king of Chu in the palace and not take it back!
