Chapter 36: Introspection

Empress Dowager Yuan immediately looked at Yun Fenghuan, and was slightly surprised to see Yun Fenghuan, but she didn't believe it in her heart, thinking that this little Yun clan must be pretending!

It's just that in front of everyone's eyes, it's not good to ask immediately...... She turned her mind and said, "I feel a little dizzy, I'm afraid that if I continue to stay, it will disturb the interest of the Empress Dowager, so why don't I go to the Jiuying Pavilion to rest for a while." ”

"Then let's go." The Empress Dowager bowed lightly, "You two have been sick for a long time, and it is better to look good than to mourn the family." ”

Without waiting for Empress Dowager Yuan to speak, she immediately asked Empress Dowager Qu if she was okay?

Empress Dowager Qu smiled slightly and said, "Empress Dowager Lao is worried, I think it's okay." ”

"Then Kunze is good to take care of it, if you feel unwell, go and lie down for a while, all the pavilions on the left and right islands are ready-made." The Empress Dowager immediately said this, obviously not giving Empress Dowager Yuan the opportunity to ask the county lord of Kunze to accompany her to the Jiuying Pavilion.

However, Empress Dowager Yuan didn't want to call away the county lord of Kunze at this time, but: "Then let the concubine accompany me to the Jiuying Pavilion." ”

Hearing this, everyone was a little surprised, I don't know how this matter was involved in Yun Fenghuan's head?

The Empress Dowager quickly came to her senses, her expression was a little playful, and she said, "Concubine, are you willing?" ”

"The concubine obeys." In front of everyone's eyes, the Empress Dowager Yuan is not easy to find trouble with the concubine, and the concubine can't say that she doesn't want to accompany the Empress Dowager Cimu to rest for a while, after all, first, she is not the lord of Kunze and needs to take care of the Empress Dowager Qu, and secondly, she is not in the main palace and needs to help greet people when they come.

So he had to stand up and stepped forward to help the Empress Dowager Yuan to retire.

At this time, because they looked in all directions, the expressions of the two were still relatively warm and natural, and when they left the palace gate, they both had cold faces.

Empress Dowager Yuan Senran asked: "Did you pick it?" ”

"The concubine doesn't understand what the mother is talking about?"

"You have all the glory from the emperor, knowing that the Ji family's cheap maid is uneasy and kind to the emperor, but you still instigate the Qu family to seek the help of the Ji family's remnants, so mad, how can you be worthy of the favor that the emperor gives you?!" Empress Dowager Yuan walked a few steps up to the rockery not far away, and sneered, "Don't pretend to be confused with the mourning family!" ”

Yun Fenghuang said softly: "What you said, I just saw the Empress Dowager speaking for the Empress Dowager, and the concubine also felt strange." The Queen Mother has always lived in a simple place, but when did she enter the eyes of the Queen Mother? It's really hard to figure out. ”

"If it weren't for you, even if the Qu clan wanted to get this, how could they contact the Qingci Palace unknowingly?" Empress Dowager Yuan didn't believe her words at all, and decided that Yun Fenghuang was the culprit, "You are sure that the emperor loves you and doesn't care about anything, right?!" ”

Yun Fenghuang said calmly: "Queen Mother, you are the Empress Dowager, and these concubines respect you very much. However, the Queen Mother, who is also the Queen Mother, is one of Her Majesty's Queen Mother! Speaking of which, both of you are living in the palace, who is more noble than the other? In this palace, there are only the empress dowagers. You have always believed that you are the wife of the King of Fuyang, bullying the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is kind-hearted, you can't stand it anymore, pull the Queen Mother of the Mother, what's the problem? In such a situation today, if you hadn't had a public argument with the Queen Mother on the dock and embarrassed the county lord, how would the Queen Mother intervene? ”

"After all, it's your own sin."

"Moreover, the Empress Dowager is persuading poor relatives in her own home, even if it is biased, it is also blameless."

"What qualifications do you have, doubt this and doubt that?"

"Let's just say it bluntly, you just lost face by the Queen Mother, but you can't do anything about the Queen Mother, so you want to find a concubine body to make a punching bag."

"But why do you have to act so cowardly and have to charge the concubine with a crime?"

"Anyway, who in the palace doesn't know how you treat your concubine?"

"......" Empress Dowager Yuan was simply stunned, she suddenly stopped, looked straight at Yun Fenghuan, and said in a trembling voice, "You...... What did you say?! ”

She knew that Xiao Yun's family was bold and dared to think and dare to do and speak, but she never expected that this concubine would dare to say such a thing!

In front of her!

Empress Dowager Yuan didn't know for a moment whether she should be angry at Yun Fenghuang's words, or angry at her contempt?

Yun Fenghuang met her incredulous gaze and smiled slightly: "The concubine body said, you are the most respected mother of Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager, what do you want to do with the concubine?" But why bother searching for a reason?! ”

"You!!" Empress Dowager Yuan only felt that the blood in her whole body rushed to her brain all of a sudden, and she raised her hand without hesitation...... But he was avoided by Yun Fenghuang, who had already been on guard, and said calmly: "The Empress Dowager of Mother usually has to teach the concubine, and the concubine does not dare to be unavoided. But today, the former dynasty and the harem gathered together, and the concubine just walked out of the queen mother. If you go back with traces on your face, I'm afraid that you can't prevaricate, and it won't be Your Majesty who will be embarrassed at that time? ”

"The Empress Dowager is the same as the concubine, she relies on Her Majesty to live in this palace, but why do you always block Your Majesty?"

"Mother, Queen Mother!" Because the terrain of the small square pot is rugged, you can't walk two steps, you have to climb high and low, the various steps and mountain paths are about steep, and the skirts of the concubines are extravagant, and they are on the ground when they walk, and the people below are afraid of stepping on the skirt and causing the master to fall or make a fool, so they deliberately keep a little distance.

At this moment, seeing that the two of them couldn't stand, and the situation was not quite right, they hurriedly followed, and when they got closer, they found that Mrs. Yuan was blue behind her, and the concubine was indifferent, and she couldn't help but be a little at a loss, "This is?" ”

Empress Dowager Yuan stared at Yun Fenghuan with electric eyes, and the fingers in her sleeves trembled slightly, she couldn't wait to go up and tear this concubine to pieces at this moment!!

But after taking a few deep breaths, she finally calmed down, didn't answer the people's words, and only stretched out her arm with a calm face: "The road to the Jiuying Pavilion is still a little, this place is rugged and steep, and you have to worry about the concubine." ”

"What did the Queen Mother say?" Yun Fenghuan also quickly changed his face, returned to his smiling appearance, stepped forward to support her, and said softly, "Niangniang does not dislike the concubine, it is the blessing of the concubine." ”

She sighed secretly in her heart, very disappointed.

The disrespectful words just now, of course, she didn't lose her mouth in anger, but deliberately.

just wanted Empress Dowager Yuan to make some irrational move in anger...... In this way, her next plan with Empress Dowager Qu can be smoother.

It's just that Empress Dowager Yuan is not stupid.

Although Concubine Min has always made her unhappy, she used to call people to the Spring Palace to punish her kneels and dare to play tricks, but because of Chunjia's respect for her adoptive mother, she did not dare to be very disobedient in her attitude.

Today, she suddenly spoke so ugly, she simply poked the queen mother's heart every sentence, saying that there was no other purpose, who would believe it?

So she restrained her anger, forced herself to calm down, and brought Yun Fenghuang to the Jiuying Pavilion as if nothing had happened.

It's not a big place, but it's quite well built.

There are plum trees in all directions, and if it's in season, it's a sight to behold.

But now, the trees are not flowering, and the thick shade in the middle of summer is also destroyed by the autumn wind, and there is a different bleak atmosphere.

Empress Dowager Yuan looked at this scene, her lips moved a few times and then stopped, as if she was going to say a few words to ridicule Yun Fenghuan, but she was not sure that it would be Concubine Min who would be angry in the end, so she decided not to stir up trouble.

The two of them sat down, and the palace people who came over to wait went to the back to find tea sets and spring water, and began to pick up and serve.

After sitting speechless for a while, Empress Dowager Yuan spoke: "You go back to the main hall." ”

"The queen mother came to rest because of the phoenix body, how can the concubine leave you to go back to the banquet alone?" Yun Fenghuang sat still, and said softly, "The concubine will accompany you for a while, and let's go back together." ”

Empress Dowager Yuan closed her eyes and ignored her.

After another moment, there was some movement outside, and the palace people came in to tell him, saying that Chunjia went to the main hall to ask for peace, and learned that the Empress Dowager Yuan was unwell, so she deliberately came to visit before the banquet began.

"Emperor, you come in with the mourning family!" It didn't take long for Chunjia, who was neatly crowned, to walk in, and when he saw Yun Fenghuang underneath, he didn't pay much attention, so he hurriedly asked what was wrong with Empress Dowager Yuan.

The Queen Mother didn't say much, she stood up directly, walked towards the inner room, and ordered, "Concubine, you leave the mourning family outside!" ”

Yun Fenghuang, who had just stood up from the chair, was not weak-hearted, responded generously, sat back again, and drank tea calmly.

After all, Jiuying Pavilion is a royal pavilion, and the sound insulation is very good.

After the Queen Mother took Chunjia inside, she couldn't hear any movement, and after a while, the door was opened again, and Chunjia helped the Empress Dowager Yuan, whose eyes were red, to come out, her face was not very good, and her eyes were also reproachful, but she glanced at the palace people around her, and didn't say anything about the concubine, but only discussed with the Queen Mother softly: "The banquet over there is about to start, and the child will accompany you first?" ”

Empress Dowager Yuan said lightly: "Did Emperor Shan accompany the mourning family to the past?" ”

"......," Junjia said after a slight hesitation, "Naturally. ”

Only then did she look at Yun Fenghuan, and in a flat tone, she asked her to stay in the Jiuying Pavilion to reflect, "I'm too busy to talk to you now, and when the banquet is over, I'll talk to you again!" ”

The attendants on Yun Fenghuang's side were shocked when they heard this, but the concubine herself looked calm, stepped forward and blessed, and said, "The concubine obeys orders." ”

So the emperor helped the Empress Dowager Yuan to leave, and when he crossed the threshold, he quickly turned around, and saw that the concubine had already sat back in the chair, looking at the floor tiles not far away expressionlessly, and her expression was a little complicated.

When the mother and son of the heavenly family were far away, the Qing people were busy asking: "Niangniang, what's going on?" ”

"If a mother wants her son to take care of the concubine in the house, do you still need a reason?" Yun Fenghuang said lightly, "You guys go out and let the palace be quiet." ”

Hearing this, the left and right looked at each other, and didn't dare to say anything more: "Yes." ”

…… The palace people retreated, and the door was hidden, and there was only one cloud wind fence left in the room, and they pondered.

She didn't feel much panic in her heart now, because although the words she said about Empress Dowager Yuan just now were excessive, if Chunjia heard it, she would definitely not be able to stop easily, but ...... Didn't Chunjia hear it personally?

Even the servants who were waiting for the two didn't hear much.

That is, she didn't say it at all, it was all the Queen Mother who made it difficult for her.

Anyway, it's just a matter of coaxing the emperor later.

She didn't do this kind of thing once or twice, and she was already a little handy.

She was thinking about the matter of Kunze and the Yun family at this time, if it was not bad, Empress Dowager Yuan's previous plan was to take advantage of this banquet to make a fuss.

But now that the Empress Dowager Qu has joined forces with the Empress Dowager, it is difficult to say whether the Empress Dowager Yuan will change her plan because of this.

Yun Fenghuang is definitely going to stop this matter, not only to stop this matter, but she also has other plans.

Being punished here for reflection at this moment is just a good way to sort out your thinking.

…… But he didn't stay alone for too long, counting that Chenguang was the main hall and had three rounds of wine, and there were palace people outside who came cautiously to report, saying that Concubine De was here and brought some wine.

"Sister, what's wrong?" Concubine De climbed the rockery where the Jiuying Pavilion was located with a smile on her face, and saw that the people who were serving the concubine were all outside and looked depressed and serious, so she solemnly got up, and was allowed to enter at this moment, put the food box on the table, and hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty accompanied the Empress Dowager to the table, saying that you accidentally broke your foot on the way here, so you can only stay in the Jiuying Pavilion to clean up...... This? ”

Yun Fenghuang didn't hide it: "On the way here, the Empress Dowager Cimu suspected that the Empress Dowager Qu and the Empress Dowager joined forces to fall in her face, and said a few words about the palace, and the palace's justification probably made the Empress Dowager of the Mother of Love displeased." Just now His Majesty came to visit, the Queen Mother took Her Majesty into the back room and talked for a while, and after coming out, His Majesty asked the palace to stay and reflect, and there was no need to go to the banquet. ”

When Concubine De heard this, she hurriedly whispered to the Empress Dowager: "Not to mention that there is no basis for what is good to say so, even if this is the case, isn't the Queen Mother of Our Majesty?" Our Lady Queen has a life, can my sister still disobey? The Queen Mother is really not happy, why not go to find the Queen Mother, but teach her sister to be wronged! ”

"Don't talk about that." Yun Fenghuang sighed lightly, "But it's nothing to stay here for a while, why are you here?" When the Queen Mother saw it, she was afraid that she would not like it. ”

"There are so many people today, and there are many sisters who are lively." Concubine De actually regretted a little in her heart, she didn't know what to do, thinking that Yun Fenghuan didn't go to the banquet really just because she broke her foot, plus her appearance might be damaged, and she didn't show up for fear that she would lose face in front of everyone, so she thought that at this time, as the sister with the best relationship between the harem and the concubine, how could she ignore it and eat and drink at the banquet by herself?

So while the banquet was a little warmer, he was busy asking the palace people to clean up some food and bring it over to express his gratitude.

In order to prevent others from sharing this affection, she even specifically instructed people to trip up the concubines of Yi's Qu's and Jia's who were also eager for Yunfenghuan.

Now that I knew the truth, I realized that if I didn't make it, I would become a thorn in the eyes of the Queen Mother after the concubine!

The problem is that the concubine is deeply interested and the city is deep, and the Queen Mother can't help it if she doesn't like it for a long time, she doesn't have the ability......

But they all came, and they hesitated a little at this time, for fear that they would offend the Empress Dowager Yuan, and they would not be good in front of the concubine.

Concubine De still knew this truth, so she immediately said, "Besides, no matter how lively the banquet is, without my sister present, in my sister's opinion, it is not interesting." ”

After saying this, seeing Yun Fenghuan smiling slightly, his heart suddenly felt much more relieved, and he felt that there was no need to scare himself, although Empress Dowager Yuan was not easy to provoke, but she was loved by the concubine, and when she turned back to Empress Dowager Yuan to find trouble, she was afraid that Sister Min would not protect herself?

is secretly feeling that he is really witty and sharp, who knew that the words would fall, and another palace person came to tell him, saying that Yi Shi and several other concubines came over to see Yun Fenghuang......
