Chapter 45: First Strikes
Yun Fenghuang didn't wait for Chunjia to speak, and said: "Although Your Majesty has a heart of love for Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess Minghui, Her Royal Highness can't understand it, but treats Your Majesty as an enemy everywhere. If such forbearance can be exchanged for His Highness's understanding in the future, it will be fine. But Your Majesty Mingjian, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is actually not small, she is the eldest daughter of the first emperor. The two highnesses of Yun'an and Sui'an at the bottom have already declined, not to mention, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of Yun'an, who is even more pregnant with Liujia, will give birth in a few days! This is the age at which you can be a mother, but you are still so reckless......"
She sighed, "Your Majesty, when the first emperor died, the three eldest princesses were all very young. Your Majesty - as an heir, the so-called eldest brother is like a father, if you don't discipline Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, it will be unimaginable! β
Gu Zhen listened to the slight twitch of the corners of his mouth, and he wanted to explain that Hui was obviously the concubine, what is the relationship with the emperor?
But Chunjia's face sank like water, and this look made the concubine, who felt that she was not so favored, did not dare to interject without permission.
"I know." Chunjia actually knew that Yun Fenghuang was pulling himself into the water, but he understood that what the concubine said made sense.
Because he got the throne from the former emperor Xiaozong, coupled with the fact that his biological father went early, and because of his weak body before the death of King Duanwang of Fuyang, he was not very close to him, the only male heir. Therefore, I am grateful and affectionate to my father, who I have never met.
Therefore, for the three sisters of Minghui, although they are not really obedient, everything is up to their nature, but they also try their best to protect themselves within the scope of not hindering themselves.
Especially the various actions of his sister-in-law Minghui, because he didn't really shake Chunjia's power, he came with a tolerant and tolerant attitude.
Looking at the front facing harem, now the elders who can make him so willing to let it go are only two queen mothers, and the peers are nothing more than Yun Fenghuang and Minghui.
Anyone else who dares to make the emperor angry with this is afraid that he doesn't want to live anymore.
But Minghui doesn't know if he doesn't understand this truth, or he understands this truth too well, he didn't say anything about it at the court meeting in the past, and now he even stirred up the banquet.
So what about next time?
She is the honorable eldest princess and can be present on many occasions.
Is it possible to let her participate in a banquet and make trouble in the future? Not to mention how disappointing it is, how embarrassing it is, and most importantly, it will make the outside world think that Chunjia is weak, and he can't even help his heir.
How can such a son of heaven teach people to be in awe?
Chunjia will never allow such doubts to appear.
And Minghui's trouble this time is not the same as last time, the last time anyone with a discerning eye knew that the eldest princess was used as a gun by the regent, although this will make everyone think that the eldest princess is not so smart and smart, but at worst, it can be regarded as naΓ―ve and ignorant, not so annoying.
But this time, Ming Hui first went to make trouble with the concubine, and then blamed the important minister Yunzhao regardless of the 3721, which made the courtiers, especially those close to Chunjia, taboo.
Yun Fenghuang bet that Chunjia and the courtiers of the royalist faction would definitely not treat it as the disharmony between the eldest princess and the concubine.
Most of what they thought was that since the eldest princess had already started targeting her courtiers, then today she was the Duke of Yiguo, would it be Ouyang Yanran tomorrow? Is it the turn of Yin Qu and the others the day after tomorrow?
Her Royal Highness the eldest princess gave the impression of the harem that before Ji Sheng, a concubine, went to the world, she was probably the most carefree and noble person in the world.
Real golden branches.
The only trouble is probably that it is too plump.
After Ji Sheng went, he was ignored for a while because of all kinds of turmoil, but as soon as the temple made a fuss, everyone remembered it and didn't dare to slack off.
At that time, Minghui was mainly targeting Yun Fenghuan, which made everyone feel that it was just a contradiction between the daughters of the Heavenly Family, which was not directly related to them, and it was not a big deal.
Therefore, at that time, many people supported the eldest princess of Minghui, thinking that the emperor should hand over the favorite concubine to the eldest princess out of gratitude and filial piety to Xiaozong.
After all, how can a mere concubine be compared with the first emperor's blood?
Now that Minghui is targeting themselves, they won't think so.
They will feel that the eldest princess is too spoiled and spoiled, an eldest princess, why should she meddle in the previous dynasty, and drag the ministers into the water for their own selfishness?
This is a move intended to disrupt the DPRK!
The most important thing is that the Duke of Yiguo she targeted this time is not only the nominal patriarch of Yun Fenghuang's mother's family, but also one of Chunjia's staunchest supporters.
Therefore, Minghui's move, was he confused and impulsive, or was he instigated by the regent?
The battle for the throne of the heavenly uncle and nephew is such a big thing, and there is no room for any negligence.
So no matter what Chunjia and the royalists think in their hearts, they must be prepared to have political enemies behind Minghui, so as not to be caught off guard.
Therefore, there is no need for Yun Feng Huang to mention it, and Chunjia will not let Minghui continue to make trouble so unscrupulously.
This is not only that he doesn't want to be messed with by this heir sister anymore, but also his love for Minghui as an heir brother, worried that she will get used to making trouble and make things that she can't give her a round again, and when the time comes, he will teach Xiaozong under Jiuquan to be sad and sad.
"I will beat Minghui, you are all wronged today." Chunjia pinched her eyebrows and said lightly, "Qingshu and Roukun are very good today, and the queen will look at the good life and reward it." β
Gu Zhen hurriedly agreed.
Cui Lianye lowered her eyebrows and came up calmly to thank her, but Rou Kun had disappointment on her face.
Chunjia noticed it and said slightly: "I'll see you later, you can go back first." β
Rou Kun was immediately happy, and happily saluted, and then walked away happily with his hands behind his back.
The concubines in the palace didn't care about the emperor's promise, including Yun Fenghuang, who had come out with Rou Kun at a time today, and the emperor should also go to them to show his appreciation.
And Rou Kun is young, according to the advice of the imperial doctor, Chunjia will not have anything with her when she goes, but just coax her, and everyone will naturally not have any jealousy.
"Minghui went to look for you today, do you really suspect that you interfered in her marriage?" Chunjia sent Rou Kun away and asked Yun Fenghuan again.
Yun Fenghuan said: "Not only that, she also said that she didn't like Yunxike, the concubine told her, how could His Majesty treat her badly, although the concubine had never seen that Yunxike before, but today's performance on the table is also a future, and she will inevitably be wronged by His Highness." But His Highness didn't listen, and only said......"
She hesitated.
Chunjia motioned for her to continue.
"Her Royal Highness means that as long as Her Majesty or the concubine is the master of the people and things for her, she doesn't believe it."
When these words were spoken, even if the most favored concubine said it, everyone felt that Chun Jia's whole body was a little colder.
"Your Majesty is angry." Seeing this, Gu Zhen hurriedly persuaded, "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess's biological mother is the concubine Ji Sheng, not the concubine who said the length of the deceased, but Your Majesty, please think about it, the concubine Ji Sheng was originally not right-minded, how can he be able to teach the knowledge taught by Her Royal Highness the eldest princess?" His Royal Highness is also confused, His Majesty is magnanimous, don't be angry with the royal body for His Highness. β
Chunjia snorted and said, "She thinks that the person I picked for her is not good, so can she say that she has any plans?" β
"His Royal Highness didn't say it, His Royal Highness just pestered the concubine and asked the concubine to send Yunxi away for her, but how is this possible?" Yun Fenghuang shook his head and said, "The concubine body persuaded her a few words in turn, and also mentioned the first emperor, saying that the first emperor had no children, and since His Majesty was the heir, as the blood of the first emperor, why didn't His Highness help His Majesty but to others?" It really doesn't make sense. After all, what was not given by the first emperor of His Royal Highness? Then His Highness got angry, shook his hand and left. β
Gu Zhen felt that the concubine's words seemed to be a little different from what she had said to him before, but if she thought about it carefully, it was about the same, so she bowed her head slightly at this moment and said, "Your Majesty, that's exactly the case." When Her Royal Highness Princess Minghui walked away, the concubine happened to meet her and said hello to her. It's just that His Royal Highness was in a bad mood at the time and didn't pay attention to the concubine. Later, the concubine was worried, so she went to the warm pavilion to ask the concubine about it, and the concubine said the same. β
"Your Majesty, the concubine thinks that Her Royal Highness Princess Minghui is really a little unruly." Concubine Shu stood up and said, "Even if she is a noble golden branch and jade leaf, what is the identity of the queen?" is on family law, and Niangniang is also her sister-in-law. Niangniang took the initiative to greet her, she didn't say stop and answer to Niangniang, but ignored it and left, if this matter spreads, I'm afraid that there will be no rules in the heavenly family outside, and it is not good for His Highness and the palace. β
"Yes, Your Majesty, the concubine also thinks that Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is too arrogant." Now that the concubine has taken the lead, everyone can see Chunjia's attitude, that is, Minghui is no longer so maintained, not to let everyone be patient with everything, don't worry about Minghui, at least plan to start beating and disciplining, so what else to say? Of course, it is along with the words of the emperor and the empress and concubines.
For a while, Chunjia's ears were full of all kinds of things that Princess Minghui was not.
From personality to origin, to being a person, to dressing up, I have been picked out and picky.
He sighed in his heart, and said in his heart, why is this sister so confused?
You must know that the three of them become tigers and all mouths are gold, even if they are the concubines of the first emperor, can't they do it secretly if they are not moving?
offended so many people at once, even if he still had the idea of defending, how could he not consider the feelings of other people?
After all, for the emperor, the empress, the fourth concubine, the wife and other concubines are also very important.
It is impossible for him to revolve around Princess Minghui alone.
"Minghui is the granddaughter of the Empress Dowager, I can't say anything about her directly, I'll go and ask to see the Empress Dowager later, and talk to the Empress Dowager." Chunjia thought about taking this opportunity to give Minghui some color, lest she not know the height of the sky.
I just don't know what the Queen Mother will think and do?
If the Empress Dowager intends to protect her granddaughter, then Chun Jiaming will not be able to do anything on her face.
On this day, Chunjia asked about the situation, and let everyone go back to the palace.
A group of people went back to the harem by boat several times, Chunjia went to Mrs. Roukun according to his promise, and Yun Fenghuang immediately ordered someone to summon Jia Yuye after returning to Xuanqing Palace.
Left and right were surprised: "Isn't Niangniang going to summon Mrs. Qingshu?" β
"There's nothing to say about Cui's side, this time I owe a favor, and I will pay it back in the future." Yun Fenghuang shook his head and said, "As for asking her how she remembered what she said, and why did she stand up and pull Rou Kun with her...... This is also very easy to speculate, it is nothing more than that I feel that it is not the opponent of this palace in the end, and today is a good opportunity to release my previous suspicions. Anyway, just stand up and say a few words, even if the palace doesn't appreciate it, Your Majesty will leave the impression that she is clever and sensible, right? As for pulling Rou Kun up, I probably felt that Rou Kun was sitting beside her, and she just withdrew as a personal witness, which was also a favor. β
"Then why did Niangniang summon Jia's family?" After thinking about it for a while, he asked again, "It seems that today's incident has nothing to do with the Jia family?" β
Since the fall of the two backers, Jia Yuye has suddenly become a lot more timid.
When he came to Yun Fenghuang, he was even more respectful.
Therefore, the attendants of Xuanqing Palace all think that Jia Yuye is afraid that he doesn't have the courage to do things now?
"This palace summoned her, and it has little to do with today's affairs." Yun Fenghuang said, "This palace has other things to see her...... These long-winded kung fu of yours have summoned people to this palace early in the morning! β
Left and right smiled awkwardly, and hurriedly went out to arrange.
So after a while, Jia Yuye, who had not completely removed her makeup, walked into the Huanhua Hall uneasily.
Yun Fenghuang glanced at her, gave her a seat, ordered someone to retreat after serving tea, and there were only two concubines left in the hall, so she asked straight to the point: "How is your relationship with Lu Qidao?" β
Jia Yuye, like the waiters of Yunfeng Huang, thought that he had summoned himself at this moment to appreciate the turmoil at the banquet.
At this moment, he was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then said: "Back to Niangniang's words, at that time, the concubine and her had their own masters, although they seemed to be in frequent contact because of their position, but in fact, they didn't have too many deep friendships. β
That's for sure, at that time, the high position standing behind Lu Qidao was the current queen Gu Zhen, and what about Jia Yuye? first the former concubine Zheng, and then directly relied on the former queen.
Everyone is a person with a backer, and the backer is not very harmonious, and it is impossible to mix oil in honey well.
"Even if you don't have a deep friendship, you have been in the palace for many years, and you often go in and out together, so it's impossible not to know anything, right?" Yun Fenghuang looked at her and said slowly, "Lu Qidao is the righteous daughter of Lu Chuncao, the former Marquis of Qingping, and Lu Chuncao is the one who served Ji Sheng. You say, do their father and daughter know a lot of secrets about Ji Sheng? β
Jia Yuye hesitated: "This ......"
She couldn't read the concubine's thoughts, so she didn't dare to say anything or do anything.
After hesitating for a moment, in the end, it was nothing more than Yun Fenghuang's sharp gaze, and Ne said, "I've heard about it, but it's all irrelevant." β
I told a few secrets that I knew, which were nothing more than some small hobbies of Ji Sheng and the first emperor Xiaozong.
Yun Fenghuang was dissatisfied: "These two have already gone, why should this palace care about these?" This palace only asks you, and there are no quirks and roots about people who are still alive? β
Seeing that Jia Yuye still didn't understand very well, she said meaningfully, "This palace remembers that Her Royal Highness Princess Minghui doesn't seem to be so obese, but it is the concubine Ji Sheng who has been pressuring her to take medicine and eat meat, so she maintains that appearance." You know why? β
