But in fact, Li Jieyu didn't trust Queen Gu or the queen's dowry.

It's not that she thinks that the queen will harm her, but that she thinks that Queen Gu's methods are not good.

Even the culprit she really suspected was not from the concubine's side, but Gao Jieyu.

"The new concubine in front of the queen, except for the palace, she is the only one." Li Jieyu said to her confidants in private, "If the palace is considered unable to give birth, can the queen still manage the palace?" Everything must be close to that! ”

Left and right whispered: "Why didn't Niangniang tell the queen about this idea?" The queen must not like people like Gao Jieyu who are vicious. ”

"But now it is a fact that it will be difficult for the palace to give birth in the future." Li Jieyu said with a complicated expression, "The result has been cast." Even if the queen doesn't like the Gao family, she won't raise the palace too much...... The result will be the same. Besides, after the queen reuses the Gao family, can the Gao family not coax the queen? As far as the city government of the Middle Palace, do you think the Gao family can't coax her? ”

The attendants all sighed: "This Gao Jieyu doesn't know what luck she has taken, she obviously didn't have the qualifications to be a concubine at the beginning, but she also became Jieyu!" ”

If the Gao family hadn't been Jieyu, with the difference in status, Li Jieyu's master and servant would have a way to pinch her.

But this is also a palace Jieyu now, even if she doesn't have a title, she is a little lower than Li Jieyu, but everyone is a low-level concubine, who can help whom?

If there is intrigue in normal times, Li Jieyu actually has nothing to fear.

The key is that she has been pregnant and giving birth these days, and her energy and physical strength have been dragged down a lot.

"Don't talk about that." Li Jieyu bit her lip and reminded, "Don't forget how the difficult things about this heir of this palace got out?" ”

I have eyeliner in this palace.

Since there may be Gao's eyeliner, how can there be no queen?

was about to dismiss his henchmen, but at this time, someone came to tell him, but it was Gao Jieyu who took the initiative to come to visit!

Li Jieyu's master and servant were stunned when they heard this, and after discussing for a while, Li Jieyu finally decided to send Gao Jieyu away in order to be safe.

But Gao Jieyu forcibly broke in and said, "When is it, are you still here to be angry with me?" I don't want to think about it, how did the queen ask us in the past?! Now that you can give birth to this piece of meat in your belly, you should really be grateful to the imperial favor of the noble concubine, so that the Gu family didn't dare to really break the net! Otherwise, which of your children or my lives will be saved? ”

Hearing this, Li Jieyu was first stunned, and then her heart was cold, and she said in a deep voice: "What do you mean?!" ”

"Aren't you stupid for raising a baby for many days?" Gao Shi showed contempt, approached her, and whispered, "The queen forced us to promise to give up our lives, and the heirs should also put the interests of Yanfu Palace first, do you really think that these days, no one cares and no one asks, let you give birth to the child well, are you forgetting?" I don't want to think about it, as far as we hear,

The queen mother and the Gu family, have they suffered less in the hands of the concubine over the years? As the saying goes, eat a trench and grow a wisdom. The queen mother and the Gu family, how can they expect that no matter how tragic the end of you and me is, they can make the concubine Niangniang hurt her muscles and bones? ”

"Judging from the changes in the previous dynasty that I have heard these days, I am afraid that after the dust settles on the matter of Xie Drizzle, if there is no matter of the Ten Princes and the Twelve Princes being raised by His Majesty personally, the next step for the Gu family is to attack the concubine Niangniang from the former harem!"

"Not to mention the previous dynasty, you and I can't imagine what arrangements will be made."

"Harem...... Hehe, in addition to persecuting you and me, do you think the queen has any other ways to splash dirty water on the concubine? ”

Li Jieyu listened to the blue and white on her face, and then hummed for a moment: "You mean, the rumors were not made by you?" ”

Gao Jieyu said: "Of course it's not me! If I have the ability to find out such a secret as yours, why would I let you survive? ”

Ignoring Li Jieyu's angry face, she sneered and said, "It's you, I heard that you sent someone to the queen to invite an ancestor back to take charge, so I know that you must be stupid and think that I am harming you!" ”

"You mean, the queen did this?" Li Jieyu frowned, "But...... Even if I didn't frame the concubine with the heir in my womb, wouldn't you be stingy and sacrifice for the middle palace? Why did the queen do this to me? ”

Gao Jieyu said in a cold voice: "Naturally, it is to make the mustard between you and me go to the next level." It's so convenient for her to control it in the future! ”

Seeing that Li Jieyu was silent, she said again, "Do you think that you and I are not in harmony, the dignified queen, there is no need to calculate like this?" ”

She just sneered, "But don't forget, the queen mother is the old man who entered the palace when His Majesty got married, and now she can be our mother even if she is old!" I inquired before, before we entered the palace, the queen mother fell ill one after another because of the not very good news of Longpinghou, and this time, Longpinghou simply didn't have ...... You yourself are in confinement and didn't go to the Middle Palace, your henchmen should always know that the queen's current complexion is really not very good, right? ”

Hearing this, Li Jieyu looked at her henchmen not far away.

The henchman bowed slightly.

Seeing this, Gao Jieyu continued: "The queen is old, even though she is noble and in the back position. When she was young, she couldn't suppress the concubine, at this time, can she rest assured that we are a concubine who is younger than the concubine? Even if you and I are the daughter of the old Gu family! How could she not try not to take care of us while she still had a little energy? ”

"......" Li Jieyu pondered for a while, letting the left and right retreat, leaving only Gao Jieyu to speak, and then said in a low voice, "What do you want to do?" ”

"It's just a way to survive." Gao Jieyu looked at her and said slowly, "Your Majesty loves the concubine so much, I believe that after this incident, everyone can see it clearly." I no longer expect to be able to share the favor of the concubine as the queen mother expects. But if there is no emperor's favor...... You think, the queen specially

Picked us into the palace just to let us be mothers? ”

That's certainly not possible.

No matter how gentle and generous Gu Zhen is in the wind commentary, it can't change the fact that this kind of noble girl from a high-born family, no matter how generous she is in ordinary times, when it comes to key interests, she will do anything.

The difference is nothing more than how many means they have.

Li Jieyu slowly exhaled and said, "Where is it so easy? It's only to blame that we have been in the palace for a short time, and now all of you have a stable position. Moreover, I believe you can also see that even if the high-ranking people are not in harmony with each other, they have a tacit understanding when facing us people, and they will not allow us to be promoted easily, let alone get involved in the palace power! Unless it is Tian Jieyu, who is a blood relative of the concubine, there may still be one or two hopes. Otherwise, going around and around is just a pawn for them. Where can you be the master and get your own life and future? ”

"That's true, but don't you do nothing?" Gao Jieyu asked rhetorically, "If that's the case, then you don't think I've been here!" ”

…… When the two Jieyu were discussing closely for the future and freedom, Yun Fenghuang also received the news that Li Jieyu's fertility was hindered, and the Qing people said that after Li Jieyu was full moon, she would cross it out from the bed.

"If they serve Your Majesty a few more times, maybe there will be good news."

Yun Fenghuang thought about it again, but said: "Li Jieyu can be crossed out, but the extra arrangements should be given to Jing Jieyu as much as possible, not to Runan." ”

Seeing that the Qing people were surprised, she sighed, "Like a man...... After all, it was Brother Twenty-One who was selected to come in, who knows how? ”

Before clearing Xie Wuzheng's suspicion, Xie Runan will never be promoted again.

Yun Fenghuang didn't want to ambush himself in the palace.

"......" Qingren was silent for a while, and then sighed for a while, and said, "But I hope that Niangniang will figure out what the horses have done earlier." ”

But this timing is really inconvenient, after all, Xie Wuzheng is thousands of miles away to guard filial piety.

It is impossible for such a big matter to be finalized through the communication of the servants.

And there is still some time before the brother and sister meet.

Who knows what will happen during this time?

Qing people didn't dare to say it, but their hearts were heavy, and they always felt that the scene of the prosperity of the Xie family in the past could no longer be seen, and the scene of brothers and sisters working together to trust each other was probably difficult to have.

At the end of the year in a blink of an eye, a messenger came from the north, who was in the dust, saying that he was giving a New Year's gift on behalf of Sui'an and his wife, and it was logical to hand over the post to the palace to meet the concubine.

When Yun Fenghuang heard this news, which was originally very common, his heart was full of mixed feelings, and he settled down, and then ordered: "Since this is the case, let people come." ”

The person who came was an old servant she was very familiar with, and it seemed that she had also accompanied Xie Wuzheng on the expedition.

After entering the salute, he quickly looked up and sighed: "Niangniang has lost a lot."

”

"There are a lot of things to do these days, and it's inevitable." Yun Fenghuang called out lightly, and ordered to give a seat, and then said, "But I don't know that His Highness still has Brother Twenty-One, how is the current situation?" ”

The old servant said that everything was fine, that is: "The two young ladies were young, and they had a cold a few days ago, and His Highness was very worried, and they took care of them for two days, and they almost fell ill with them." The colt was very troubled by this for a while. Fortunately, I found a doctor with high medical skills in the north, and after some diagnosis and treatment, he was finally fine. ”

After hesitating, he said, "The eighteenth young lady was seriously ill after hearing the bad news earlier, and Miss Sun has been raised with the two young ladies in front of His Royal Highness these days. A few days ago, the eighteenth young lady eased up a lot, and now the doctor looks at it and there is no big problem. ”

Yun Fenghuan nodded noncommittally, and suddenly asked, "Why did you come here now?" Bengong also thought that after the news of the eighteenth brother was passed back, the twenty-first brother would send someone to contact him. ”

"Back to Niangniang, the horse was really worried and wanted to send someone here." The old servant said in a low voice, "But thinking that this matter was caused by the Gu family, I was worried that the Gu family had other actions to frame and frame the Niangniang and the Xie family in an unrighteous place, so I immediately investigated the Hefu thoroughly from top to bottom......

According to the hint of the old servant, after Xie Wuzheng received the news that Xie Drizzle was ruined, the first thing he did was to deal with the aftermath.

Including but not limited to the Xie family's eyebrows and eyebrows with Qi Jiulu's side over the years, some traitors in the clan's private department, and some tacit understandings between the Xie family and the official family in the north, etc......

In short, what the old servant means is that Xie Wuzheng has not stopped these days.

The result of this busyness was that he ensured that even if the Gu clan had some Xie-related handles in the past, he would not be able to make any waves!

The old servant especially hinted: "The Qi family and my Xie family used to be quite harmonious, but since the incident of the year, they have become estranged. Although in the past, the old men considered that they were in the same state and did not need to make too much trouble, so they took the initiative to ease the relationship, but now there are few people in the family, but they can't cope with many people...... These days, it's getting more and more peaceful. ”

The meaning of the words is that even the head of the Qi family has settled.

Qi Jiulu's future affairs will no longer affect the name of Yunfeng Huang.

Yun Fenghuang groaned, unable to speak for a long time.
