Chapter 186: Tacit Consent (II)
That night, the Zheng family suddenly came to the door, and the concubine was very frightened, and she didn't want to greet her. After all, at that time, the Zheng family was pregnant, and if there was discomfort in the Huanhua Palace, the concubine could not say clearly. ”
"But Zheng said that the concubine was about to come to a catastrophe, although the concubine suspected that she was alarmist, and she was also a little uneasy in her heart, and after a little hesitation, she let her continue......"
"Zheng said with the concubine that the concubine had just entered the palace and hated Mrs. Chunke, and then offended Sister Shufei, even though these two things made the former queen happy to watch the excitement and gave the concubine some care, but the former queen was not reliable. Therefore, the concubine seemed to be favored by His Majesty at that time, but in fact the future was uncertain. ”
"The concubine felt that the Zheng family was afraid that she wanted to recruit the concubine, so she deliberately asked her, is it possible, can the Zheng family keep the concubine?"
"In order to win the trust of the concubine, the Zheng family talked a lot about the things in the palace, and the concubine took the opportunity to take the ins and outs of many lords...... Originally, I wanted to set some of Zheng's background in the palace, but Zheng was very vigilant and didn't say much. ”
After that, because the concubine couldn't make up her mind, she deduced that the woman's birth was a ghost gate, not a concubine's curse Zheng, but if she didn't get through it, it would be useless to make more agreements. It's better to wait for her to give birth to the imperial heir, and then attach the tail to the concubine. ”
"Although the Zheng family is not very satisfied, because of His Majesty's favor for the concubine, he didn't dare to force it, and he said goodbye very politely."
Yun Fenghuang lowered his eyebrows, "That's probably what happened." ”
Empress Dowager Yuan was a little impatient: "Be careful!" When she told you about neem, what did she say? ”
“…… Zheng said that there was no one in the Six Palaces who did not hate Mrs. Chunke. Yun Fenghuang hesitated, gritted his teeth, and said this.
The Queen Mother's face turned a little blue: "Why?!" ”
Why else could that?
Of course, it's because your niece is hated enough, and she doesn't know how to scare anyone, so it's no wonder that someone likes her, right?
Yun Feng scolded and said: "Because everyone hates her for being able to be a childhood sweetheart with His Majesty, but she ......"
She seemed a little hesitant, but finally said, "I don't know how to cherish it!" ”
Empress Dowager Yuan choked all of a sudden, and did not speak for a long time.
Or Chun Jia coughed dryly and came out of the round and said, "Zheng's nonsense, Mrs. Chunke...... Neem is just sex. I'm in a hurry! ”
"Don't say it, it's because the mourning family is not good, and you haven't been able to teach her to behave." Empress Dowager Yuan was silent for a while, tears came down, and she choked up, "It's just that the mourning family can't imagine that the six palaces hate her!" ”
Chunjia said in a low voice: "It's just a one-sided statement by the Zheng family to fool Concubine Xian, where can it be taken seriously?" ”
"When Zheng said this, Concubine Xian was just Jieyu, did she need to lie? And Concubine Xian had a bad relationship with Melia Niang at that time, Zheng said that Melia Niang was full of enemies, so how could she persuade Concubine Xian to take refuge in herself? The Queen Mother said sadly, "This must be true." When the three corpse insects happened before, Neem Niang was fine, and the mourning family was relieved, thinking that she was lucky enough, but now I know that she just escaped such a thing! ”
"After all, Neem Niang is doing well now." Chunjia
Persuaded, "Don't be too sad, why don't you let her come and greet you later?" ”
The Queen Mother choked up and said: "You don't want to see her now, why do you still see her in the mourning family?" Since the mourning family has been with you and her for all these years. When you come together, you don't mean it? How do you tell her now? ”
Chun Jia, who said this, was not very easy to accept, and said after a while: "Concubine Xian only entered the palace at that time, and it is inevitable that she is young and ignorant, but if she listens to the Zheng family's pleading and goes with the Zheng family, why should the Zheng family frame her later?" ”
"Whether it is the murder of Neem Niang or the murder of Concubine Shu, it is a felony, Zheng herself will not escape death, and if these things are revealed, she herself will be dead, but how can the family not be hated?" Empress Dowager Yuan asked with tears in her eyes, "Then how can she say that Concubine Xian is here?" It's the virtuous concubine, it's because she has done bad things that she wants to kill her! ”
Chunjia was a little speechless for a while.
Because the Queen Mother is obviously determined to charge Concubine Xian.
Seeing this, Yun Fenghuang, who was already kneeling and was a little tired, said slowly: "Sister Concubine Shu has passed away, but Mrs. Chunke is still in the palace. The Queen Mother was suspicious of the concubine, so why didn't she summon Mrs. Chunke to confront her and see if the concubine had murdered her? ”
Hearing this, Chunjia breathed a sigh of relief and immediately ordered: "Summoning Mrs. Chunke!" ”
The Queen Mother's face was ugly, her lips moved, as if she wanted to stop it, but she was silent for a moment, and she didn't say anything in the end - now everyone can see the difference in the attitude of the mother and son.
The queen mother wholeheartedly convicted Concubine Xian, and the emperor wholeheartedly wanted to turn big things into small things and let Concubine Xian pass.
Empress Dowager Yuan is an elder who is regarded by the emperor as more important than her own mother, she openly accuses Yun Fenghuan, even if the emperor is reluctant to spoil the concubine, he can't bear to save her face, let alone help the favorite concubine to do something to her.
But Yuan Neem Niang is not.
Originally, the past between her and Chunjia was a piece of chicken feathers, mixed with a bit of hatred.
In this case, she came over, but if she said that Yun Fenghuang didn't say a word, it was conceivable that even if Chunjia didn't say anything in front of the Empress Dowager Yuan, it would be difficult not to be angry in private.
even poured all the grievances and anger that could not be inflicted on Empress Dowager Yuan!
Count the concubines who entered the palace at Chunjia's wedding, from the queen to the palace concubines, and there are few who are happy now.
Because of the Empress Dowager Yuan, Yuan Neem Niang is relatively good, although she has fallen out of favor, no one dares to be lazy and harsh. That is, there is no chance to sleep, she has lived behind closed doors for so long, and she has been absent again and again when she is powerful and blessed...... Who doesn't turn a blind eye?
But this kind of grace, in addition to the care of Empress Dowager Yuan, is most important because she and Chunjia belong to childhood sweethearts.
Even if she falls out of favor and shares her past love, Chunjia will not kill them all, and is still willing to raise her with fine clothes and food.
But what if you hurt Chunjia at this time......
That's really hard to say.
Therefore, since Yuan Neem Niang is going to be called over to confront her, or to express her position, the best choice is to stand on Yun Fenghuang's side, help Concubine Xian shout grievances and justify, and ask Empress Dowager Yuan to be magnanimous.
So Chunjia is happy, and Yuan Neem Niang can also take the opportunity to wash away a wave of former notoriety.
Empress Dowager Yuan will be depressed......
Well, it should be said, very depressing.
The most depressing thing is that everyone knows Yuan Neem's temperament, and for the good of this niece and the entire Yuan family, the Empress Dowager Yuan not only has to let go of Yunfeng Huang, but also secretly sends someone to mention something, and even coaxes Yuan Neem to cooperate.
Otherwise, this little ancestor rushed over and said coldly: "It's Yun Fenghuang, this cheap maid, who harmed me!" ”
That Chunjia will not let the Yuan family have a good life.
And the Empress Dowager Yuan has to pray that she will live longer, otherwise as soon as she leaves, maybe Yuan Neem Niang will follow.
It's still the unseemly kind.
"Queen mother, the child is busy with government affairs these days, and I may not have seen Neem and two other cousins for a long time." Empress Dowager Yuan's heart turned upside down, of course Chunjia knew, after a while, he turned his head sideways and whispered to the Queen Mother, "I remember when I was a child, the queen mother said that my favorite thing is to eat with you with the child, because it is lively." Why don't you let them come to the Spring Palace more in the future? ”
Empress Dowager Yuan pursed her lips and did not speak.
She knew that the emperor didn't really mean that he wanted her to enjoy the excitement of the meal again, but he just put forward a condition euphemistically: he would bring and spoil the daughter of the Yuan family, and then the queen mother would stop staring at Yun Fenghuan.
This made the Queen Mother feel very sad.
The children she raised carefully, she spoke to her nieces so many times, explicitly implying that Chunjia was not very enthusiastic about Yuan Qian Niang and Yuan Yu Niang, who later entered the palace, since she was indifferent to Yuan Neem Niang...... The Queen Mother was disappointed and could understand, after all, Yuan Neem Niang was indeed ignorant.
After all, although Yuan Yuanniang and Yuan Yuniang are also beautiful among ordinary people, they are not among the best in the palace.
Not to mention that these two are both concubines, the former is timid and silent, and has no sense of existence since he entered the palace; Although the latter was raised by a concubine, his personality is more lively and generous, but compared with the noble girls, he still lacks a real calmness.
Not to mention that judging from Chunjia's favored Yunfeng Huang, the emperor is clearly a woman who likes beauty and cunning. I can't look down on these two concubines, which is understandable.
But the Queen Mother didn't expect that Chunjia would take the initiative to mention it for the sake of Yun Fenghuan.
She never thought it was a big deal not to have biological children before, after all, Chunjia had always treated her much better than Empress Dowager Qu. But at this moment, Empress Dowager Yuan couldn't stop thinking: "If the emperor was born to the mourning family, wouldn't he treat the mourning family like this?" ”
There was even a moment when she thought, "If he hadn't worked hard to win the opportunity for the emperor to succeed to Xiaozong, and he was still the king of Fuyang in Fuyang County, would he dare to disobey the mourning family like this?" ”
After a while, Empress Dowager Yuan heard herself say, "Okay." ”
Then she said, "That's it, I don't have any evidence for this." The mourning family doesn't want to see Neem Niang now, so that's it. ”
Things have developed to this point, and the ending is already tacit, so why do those scenes?
Chunjia showed a look of guilt, he may be really guilty, but he didn't have it after all
Definitely stood on the side of the Queen Mother - so the Queen Mother didn't look away, didn't look at him, and said slowly: "The emperor is busy with government affairs, let's go first." Mourning ...... I want to say a few words to Concubine Xian alone. ”
Seeing Chunjia hesitating, she smiled a little sadly, "What? Not sure? ”
"What did the Queen Mother say?" Chunjia hurriedly said, "The child just doesn't want you to be tired of trivial things. ”
He said some words of comfort and comfort in the Queen Mother's smiling gaze, looked at Yun Fenghuan again, and left.
Empress Dowager Yuan didn't let Yun Feng get up at this time, only let the left and right withdraw, leaving the virtuous concubine alone.
The two faced each other in the wide hall for a long time, and the Queen Mother asked slowly: "Are you very proud?" ”
“…… There is indeed a point. Yun Fenghuang groaned, "After all, when you entered the palace, everyone said that Your Majesty respects you the most and loves Mrs. Chun Ke the most." ”
"But right now, he's most partial to you." A cold smile appeared on Empress Dowager Yuan's lips, and there was no emotion in her eyes, "And you have done this, and it has taken less than two years to do this!" ”
Yun Fenghuang said calmly: "In the past two years, the concubine has experienced several twists and turns, and has experienced life and death. It's not a fluke, I'm afraid I don't know where the bones are. ”
The Queen Mother looked down at her, and for a moment, she laughed out loud: "So, do you think you are very powerful, very aggrieved, very hard, and deserve such a harvest?" ”
didn't let Yun Fenghuan answer, she suddenly raised her hand and looked out, "In this palace, there are many people who can calculate, who are more wronged than you, and who struggle harder than you!" It was so, it is now, and it will be so! How did you get to where you are today? It's not that you are so beautiful, capable, and powerful, but you happen to be in the eyes of the emperor! ”
"This kind of luck is not unique to concubines." Yun Fenghuang said softly, "There was Mrs. Chun Ke in the past, that is the person who accompanied His Majesty from childhood to adulthood, and then there are sisters who entered the palace at the same time as the concubine, there are many more opportunities than the concubine...... Niangniang, there are talented people in the country who have concubines and dare not see no one in their eyes, but they are not arrogant. ”
"And now that Your Majesty is gone, why should Niangniang still be so angry?"
"Isn't the result of this also the purpose of the mother?"
"What else is there to dislike about the mother?"
