Chapter 162: The corners of the mouth are slightly curved
"So Your Majesty, don't mention letting the concubine out of the palace." Yun Fenghuang closed her eyes, and the moonlight clearly shone the tears in the corners of her eyes, and she said in a low voice, "Since I drank that bowl of absolute medicine, this palace city, the concubine, will not be able to get out." As for Qi Jiulu, as early as when the two families dissolved their marriage, it was no longer possible. And after he married the daughter of the Chao family, the concubine and him were like enemies! β
She opened her eyes and looked at the emperor beside her, "The concubine knows that Your Majesty doesn't believe it, after all, the concubine has told you many times that the concubine and Qi Jiulu are childhood sweethearts, and the two have no guesses. β
"But Your Majesty, the Xie family, who was born as a concubine, has a flourishing heir, which is very different from the single lineage of King Fuyang."
"The concubines grew up together, but there is more than one Qi Jiulu!"
"The Xie family ranked men and women separately in the early generations, and the concubine was seventeen in this generation, and that day she accidentally collided with the younger brother of Her Royal Highness Princess Minghui, who was twenty-three, and her cousin Jiang's son, who was ranked seventh...... In addition, there are many aunts, aunts, sisters-in-law, aunts, cousins, and cousins. β
"Your Majesty, please think, how lively should the concubine be when she is young?"
seemed to remember the carefree time of the day, a heartfelt smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, but it quickly disappeared and turned into Sen Ran, "Your Majesty's childhood sweetheart is only Yue Xiuyuan, so Yue Xiuyuan will always be special." But the concubine body is different, the concubine's childhood sweetheart, there are more to go to Your Majesty, the concubine dares to take the niece of the concubine to assure you that Qi Jiulu's status in the concubine's mind is not as important as you think. β
"After all...... Why, too much, it's not unusual, isn't it? β
"The accident three years ago, for the concubine, the most heart-wrenching thing is not actually the dissolution of the marriage contract with Qi Jiulu. Otherwise, how could the concubine agree to come to the imperial capital alone and live in her aunt's house to be married? β
"The most heart-wrenching thing about the concubine is the notorious reputation of the Xie family, no, even the Jiang family, who took the concubine, has also been greatly affected."
"Your Majesty knows how many cousins the concubine was at that time, and she was either discussing marriage, or she had already found a husband who was both talented and good-looking, or even the marriage date was set...... But because of some people's calculations, the concubine and sister were miserably calculated, and fell into the name of a slut, so that ......"
She trembled slightly, as if she couldn't bear that kind of change at this moment, "so that these sisters, who are at the age of flowers, have done nothing wrong, or have been sent to the family temple, or hastily thrown out of the cabinet, or ...... Or because you can't stand the wind and rain in the city, the cantilever beams are self-sufficient. Exhaust?! β
"And, since. The cousin who died in a hurry, after the hasty mourning, was also splashed with dirt in front of the grave, thinking that it was humiliating...... But that cousin has always been cautious in her words and deeds, and after the age of seven, she is a cousin, and she has never spoken in private! β
Yun Fenghuang couldn't help but choke up, "This situation has plummeted, why is it just my cousin who wants to die at that time?" The concubine body is actually among them, but after hearing that her cousin's grave was treated like that, the concubine body ...... I don't want to die!! β
She turned around abruptly and pointed in the direction of the Yiguo Mansion, "But the concubine never expected it!" The concubine came to the imperial capital with the idea that those people in the north who were originally innocent and hateless hoped that the concubine would die, and even the place where she would be buried would be insulted after death!! β
"That's why, when the concubine and Yue Xiuyuan were in a tit-for-tat confrontation, Yue Xiuyuan's close attendant revealed that after Qi Jiulu married the daughter of the Chao family, the only thought of the concubine was that if she didn't want to fight for this life, the concubine would never let go of this pair of dog men and women, why could the Chao family still snatch the concubine's original fiancΓ© after harming the concubine's sister and the Xie family's Jiang family? !
"It's not that the concubine has an attachment to Qi Jiulu, it's just that the concubine is absolute, and she definitely can't stand losing to the Chao family's daughter!!"
"Even if the things that the concubine doesn't want are destroyed, it must not be cheapened!"
"At that time, the concubine was a newcomer in the palace, without any foundation, and today I don't know tomorrow's life and death, honor and disgrace, Your Majesty, you say, in this case, what is the only way for the concubine to retaliate against them?"
Junjia sighed and didn't speak.
He asked himself, if he was Yunfenghuan, since he had the will to die, but the enemy sent him to the door to tease, he would also want to refuse and welcome the other party in private.
In this way, once the matter fails, although there is no good result for him, how can Qi Jiulu and his wife be good?
Moreover, the Duke of Yiguo also changed the clan for Yun Fenghuan, and Yun Fenghuan didn't have to worry about implicating the Xie clan when he did this.
"At first, the concubine just wanted to pull Qi Jiulu and the Chao family to die together." Yun Fenghuan continued, "So I rewarded the palace maid Xinqing at that time in advance, thinking that when the time comes, tell her to hide near the left, if it is true that Qi Jiulu comes into the palace, he will shout, attract the guards, so that he can't get out But who knows, Qi Jiulu was personally sent into the harem by the prince regent!" β
"Personally?" Chunjia chewed on these words, her face slightly gloomy.
He had been a puppet for so many years before, and of course he understood that the key to the fact that the government was entrusted to the regent and the Ji family was that these forces were huge, and he, the son of heaven, could not reach them.
There was no place for him to speak in the previous dynasty, and even the harem was touched.
But......
Inserting the eyeliner of the concubines and buying the inner guards, this kind of involvement in the harem is different from the dignified regent Wang Shizi who personally led the foreign man to infiltrate the harem!
Even if it is an ordinary rich family, eighteen. The nine-year-old cousin sneaked into the cousin's backyard with a married man, and the concubine of the cousin Xinna was privately opened, all of which were to be solved by opening an ancestral hall, not to mention the royal family?!
At this moment, Chunjia suddenly felt that it was good that he had no children under his knees.
After all, since Gong Xiangxiao was able to take Qi Jiulu into the palace and meet Yun Fenghuan...... Who knows if anyone else has ever come in?
And at night, what will a young man with strong blood do when he enters the harem where the palace maids are full of flowers?
The Emperor now felt that the green clouds were on top......
He was furious in his heart, but his face was still silent, "And then? But the prince regent wants to blackmail his concubine? β
Yun Fenghuan's tone was indifferent: "That's not true, after all, the prince is worried that the regent will abolish the elder and young, and in order to plump his wings, he is very enveloped by Qi Jiulu." Qi Jiulu was quite polite to the concubine, and there was no reluctance, and of course the prince was also well-behaved...... The concubine thought at the time, maybe the news that the concubine heard before was wrong, or it was just one-sided. β
"It was the one who framed the concubine and sister in the first place, not only the Chao family, but also the Qi family!"
"And behind these two families, what kind of deeds are hidden, and what kind of real murderers are behind the scenes, it is even more thought-provoking!"
"If the Qi family had secretly formed an alliance with the Chao family, but did not want to bear the reputation of treachery, so they united with the Chao family to secretly attack, so that the concubine's sister ruined her reputation, so it is natural to dissolve the marriage contract, and it can also pinch the age of the concubine, so that Qi Jiulu can come to the imperial capital ......"
She sneered, "Your Majesty, you said that if the concubine didn't enter the palace by accident, and you know that he married the daughter of the Chao family at the beginning of the year. Qi Jiulu came from afar, who knows his experience in the past three years, and how does he know that he is already married? At that time, the rhetoric deceived the concubine's aunt and uncle into promising to marry, and after passing the door, they explained the truth and pressed the concubine to be a concubine...... When the time comes...... What else can a concubine do?
οΌ β
"It's just that the Xie family knows afterwards, and they can only suffer this dumb loss!"
Chunjia groaned: "Do you suspect Qi Jiulu? β
"Shouldn't the concubine suspect him?" Yun Fenghuang asked rhetorically, "Qi Jiulu claimed to have entered the Regent Palace, or did the Regent Palace, which specializes in entertaining important guests, come to Cui Yuan." It is true that he is a well-known genius in the Northland, but such a reputation is probably for the sake of flattering the Qi family, and the flattery is not taken seriously! How old is he? What qualifications do you have to come to the imperial capital, and you are summoned and praised by the regent in person, and you are led by the prince of the regent as a confidant and treated with courtesy?! β
"The concubine suspects that the Qi family has long been the regent's person, and even, under the regent's command, the status is not low!"
"That's why Qi Jiulu's son will get the attention of the regent's father and son!"
She sneered, "Three years ago, Qi Jiulu kept saying that he didn't want to quit his family, but he was only at home...... At that time, the biological mother of the concubine told the concubine that this was all an excuse. He is the son of the Qi family, if he really wants to be with the concubine even if he doesn't want his life, the Qi family can still watch him die?! So from that moment on, the concubine told herself that Quan Dang had never known this person. β
"Now that I think about it, three years ago, if the Qi family was really on my Xie side, even if I didn't use the power of the Regent Mansion to quell the rumors, arrange for the concubine and Qi Jiulu to come to the imperial capital far away, avoid rumors, and get married when I grow up, and then go back when I have children, then when the time passes, who will come to turn over the sesame seeds and rotten grains without interest?"
"The Qi clan has been sitting back and watching me, the Xie clan, the Jiang clan is in trouble, and innocent people have fallen!"
"Your Majesty, you said that the concubine's suspicion is unreasonable?"
Yun Fenghuang tilted his head, and the cold color in his eyes was even stronger, "Therefore, the concubine did not immediately expose their actions...... After all, His Majesty was not yet in charge at that time, and the concubine was worried, and this matter came out, even if the concubine and Qi Jiulu and his wife could not survive, the prince regent was still in danger. Let go of this possible culprit, the concubine is unwilling!! β
She estimated it in her heart, and felt that the pot that should be thrown was almost gone, so she slowly turned around and faced Chunjia, "The concubine was very greedy before the accident with my sister. I want to grow up carefree at home, go out of the cabinet with beautiful scenery, raise eyebrows with my husband and grow old, my in-laws regard my concubines as if they were my own children, my sisters-in-law and uncles are well-behaved, sensible and obedient, and my children are both healthy, intelligent, and filial......"
"But everything that the world thinks is good, the concubine wants it!"
"The concubine was still young at that time, and she was spoiled by her family, and she thought she deserved it."
"Later...... In fact, there is only one thing left in the concubine's body: revenge! β
Therefore, Qi Jiulu said goodbye to the concubine through the regent prince and went to the Dingbei army, and the concubine was out of shape for a while...... Without him in the imperial capital, the prince regent looks down on the concubine at all, so how can he talk about the concubine? β
"So how do you figure out the concubine body, the concubine body, the class of sisters, who did it?!"
Her eyes rolled, she suddenly took a step forward, reached out to touch Chunjia's face, and smiled lowly, "The concubine thinks about it, and the only way to focus on your majesty is to focus on it...... After all, if the concubine wants to seek justice for the sisters of the concubine, now, who else can she count on except Your Majesty?! β
Chunjia lowered her eyes to look at her.
After a while, he reached out and grabbed her hand on his face, and stretched out his arms to hug her into his arms.
Listening to the pity sigh of the Son of Heaven, Yun Fenghuang obediently leaned on his shoulder, and where he couldn't see, the corners of his mouth were slightly curved.
There was no emotion in his eyes.
