"The Queen Mother suffered a loss on the tanuki last night, but she hasn't asked the palace to kill these beasts until now." Concubine Xuan said in a low voice, "It can be seen that her old man really loves these tanuki cats, speaking of which, when the Queen Mother did this, didn't she feel sorry for Her Royal Highness Princess Minghui?" No, a few days ago, the Queen Mother sent several good-looking tanuki to Jinyun and Princess Penglai, saying that they were for the princesses to enjoy. ”

"The concubine has inquired, and Princess Minghui also has it."

"But I just sent it over in public, and when I turned around, I asked the princess to take it left and right, and I didn't let the princess touch it at all."

"Even, those who took away the tanuki turned around and asked the steward palace to escort them out to wash them inside and out several times, and took the water boiled by wormwood over the people and clothes, and then went back to Princess Minghui to serve."

Concubine Rui snorted lightly: "In this case, while the Queen Mother is lacking now, it is better to let Princess Minghui get close to those tanuki cats...... If the Queen Mother didn't care very much if she knew, it would be fine. If the Queen Mother cares very much, then ......"

"You've been asking a lot of questions these days, aren't you?" Yun Fenghuang smiled and said, "It's just that even if the Queen Mother and Queen Mother are too busy to take care of themselves now, most of them will neglect the princess's side." But Princess Minghui is a golden branch and jade leaf, if she doesn't like to touch the tanuki, what can we do with her? ”

Concubine Xuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, Niangniang, why should we come forward in this matter?" Please ask the two princesses of Jinyun Penglai to go down and say no? Don't remind Princess Minghui much, just let Jinyun Penglai hold the tanuki and go to play with Princess Minghui...... Even if the Queen Mother knows, she can't find out what to do, right? ”

"But if there's anything wrong with those tanuki, won't the two princesses suffer?" Yun Fenghuang groaned, Princess Jinyun also gave it back, Princess Penglai is Xie Wuzheng's fiancée.

If you really get hit, you won't be able to have children after getting married, which is not a good thing.

It's not that Yun Fenghuang thinks about Princess Penglai, but that the lintel of the Xie family is low, even if he has a horse, he can still have an heir, and he can be more exposed to the light of the heavenly family.

If Princess Penglai has been nothing, even if Xie Wuzheng can take a concubine to continue the heir, it is not the princess's own birth, and the difference is not a little bit or two.

"Niangniang, although we had some doubts about this before, we didn't do anything because we hadn't heard of this kind of thing." Concubine Xuan explained in a low voice, "The two princesses have been getting along with those tanuki for some days, and the concubine is not good, even if there is a problem, I am afraid it will be too late to get the tanuki away at this time." Fortunately, two days before the concubine's death, the imperial doctor quietly showed the two princesses, but she didn't find anything wrong...... No, miss the opportunity now, Princess Minghui asked the Queen Mother and Queen Mother to look like eyeballs, where is it good to move? ”

"But if Princess Minghui doesn't need to be tempted, the Queen Mother's side has been silent for all these years, how can she take the initiative to expose it?"

Yun Fenghuang pondered for a while, and said slowly: "Okay, since you have all thought about it, then let's do it." It's just a little more hidden, the queen mother and the queen mother

No matter what happened to the Queen Mother, the three princesses were all the blood of the first emperor after all. Your Majesty's admiration for the first emperor should also be known, if anyone is disrespectful to the three princesses, Your Majesty will not be spared! ”

Concubine Xuan and Concubine Rui only listened to this, Chun Jia really wanted to see the three princesses as gold and jade that could not be bullied, so they opened their mouths to mention this method, but they were afraid that Yun Fenghuan would be angry and stop them, and even send them to the front of the palace for punishment.

At this moment, they also expressed their meaning and said that they did not mean to disrespect the princess: "Anyway, those tanuki were given to the two princesses of Jinyun Penglai by the queen mother, and these two are also the blood of the first emperor, what can they do, how can Princess Minghui not do it?" ”

Sure enough, Yun Fenghuan responded without being salty, and repeatedly emphasized that he could not be wronged, so he waved his hand and let them go.

Sending these two away, she called the Qing people to come to her and asked, "Concubine Xuan Ruifei asked the two princesses for a doctor two days ago?" Why didn't you tell me about this? ”

Qingren was startled, and hurriedly knelt down: "Back to Niangniang's words, the maid hasn't heard of it yet." ”

"That's it, let Chen Zhu come." Yun Fenghuang stared at her for a while, sighed, and ordered someone to call Chen Zhu to ask, Chen Zhu didn't dare to slack off, and knelt down to say: "...... That's the thing. After hearing about it, the slave maid at first thought that the two princesses had any discomfort, but later heard that they were just asking for peace, thinking that the second concubine was intent on currying favor with the princess. But just like that, I'm afraid it's not interesting to talk about the mother. I plan to keep an eye on them, and wait for them to make another move, and then come back to tell them. The slave and maid make their own opinions, please punish the mother! ”

As he spoke, he lay down and kowtowed.

"It's nothing this time, the second concubine has already told the palace about it." Yun Fenghuang watched him knock a piece of black blue on his forehead, then took a sip of tea and said lightly, "It's just that it's better to be more cautious in the future." ”

Chen Zhu bowed his head and said yes.

Yun Fenghuang asked some more about Concubine Xuan's recent movements, and found that their main focus was on how to use Ji's to earn performance, but they didn't take the opportunity to challenge their own virtuous concubines, and nodded with satisfaction: "Count them interesting." ”

"If it weren't for the mother's lifting, where would it be their turn to point fingers in the palace?" Chen Zhu flattered, "If you dare to be disrespectful to your mother at this time, it will be crazy!" ”

Yun Fenghuang didn't believe that Concubine Xuan Ruifei didn't target herself out of gratitude, and eighty percent considered Chunjia's attitude.

The emperor now regards the Ji family as a big trouble, and he definitely doesn't want to see the people on his side start fighting in the nest before they kill the Ji family.

Even if Concubine Xuan Ruifei can't think of this layer, her family will definitely remind her, how could she make such a mistake?

But this is also good, with them racking their brains to deal with the Ji family, Yun Fenghuang can free up his hands and plan for how to send these cheap sisters to the cold palace after the fall of the Ji family.

Because when he came to the palace this year, Yun Fenghuang took advantage of the dispute between Meng Youyi and Yuan Yuniang to take care of the stewards of the palace and the Ji family. Later, Concubine Xuan and Concubine Rui were in charge, they were all from a family, and they were carefully selected to marry effectively, unless they were in a hurry, they could ask the family for help at any time...... In short, the palace has now been cleaned up

cleaned up again, and it was no longer Ji's appearance of covering the sky with one hand.

Therefore, the two concubines arranged for the two princesses of Jinyun and Penglai to pull Princess Minghui to contact the tanuki together, but they really concealed it from the Empress Dowager Ji.

The second concubine was still not at ease, and privately arranged for a tanuki to "accidentally" scratch Princess Minghui's arm.

Later, he personally took the imperial doctor to see the princess, and finally told Yun Fenghuang: "Niangniang, do you want to ask the queen mother for this matter?" After all, Her Royal Highness Princess Minghui is the only descendant of Emperor Xiaozong. ”

"If you want to see this excitement, this palace will accompany you on a trip." Yun Fenghuang said indifferently, "It's just that if the Queen Mother and Queen Mother are angry, you don't want to push everything to this palace." ”

Concubine Xuan hurriedly smiled: "Then how can it? Everyone knows that these days the palace affairs are taken care of by the concubine and the concubine's sister, and you don't care much about taking care of the imperial heir. The responsibility of not taking care of Her Royal Highness Princess Minghui, of course, is the responsibility of the concubine and Concubine Rui's sister, and it has nothing to do with you. ”

Of course, the Empress Dowager Ji, who felt sorry for her daughter, didn't think so, she didn't see the concubines again after she hurt her face, and even the original invitation was stopped.

The upper and lower levels of the Xunfeng Pavilion were tightly controlled, and the outside could not inquire about the reaction of the Queen Mother to this injury.

At this time, I heard that Concubine Xian came with Concubine Xuan and Concubine Rui to ask for a meeting, and she didn't plan to pay attention to it, but who knew that the palace people reported that the third concubine came to ask for guilt because she didn't take good care of Princess Minghui, and suddenly felt a "sigh" in her heart: "Let them come in!" ”

Yun Fenghuang took the lead in and was impatiently snatched by Empress Dowager Ji without saying a word: "Didn't you say that you came for Minghui?" What happened to Minghui? ”

"Niangniang, don't worry, Her Royal Highness the princess is fine, but when I was playing with the tanuki, I was accidentally scratched by the tanuki and broke my arm, and the concubine has already let the imperial doctor look at it, and the imperial doctor said it's okay." Yun Fenghuan persuaded her to calm down in a very relaxed tone, "The concubines think that the princess is golden after all, so they come over to tell you." lest you don't know what's going on, and listen to the tongue chewing the root of the tongue outside, and you're anxious. ”

Empress Dowager Ji's face changed suddenly, she was the kind of person who was instantly angry but tried her best to hold back.

"Where's Minghui?" She took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice, "Where is Minghui?" Let her come over and show the mourners! ”

"Her Royal Highness the princess is still in her residence, and Princess Jinyun and Princess Penglai are accompanying her." Yun Fenghuang said softly, "Don't worry, Her Royal Highness the Princess can worry about you now." Don't even tell you about it. It's the concubines who don't worry...... You summoned Her Royal Highness the Princess at this time, I am afraid that Her Royal Highness the Princess will feel uneasy......"

Empress Dowager Ji told her to shut up: "Let Minghui come over!" Immediately! Right away! ”

Yun Fenghuang glanced at Concubine Xuan Rui, and Concubine Xuan stepped forward and said, "Queen Mother, don't worry, the concubine will let people invite Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”

Then before Princess Minghui came, they were sent away.

I could only stand outside the door of Xunfeng Pavilion and watch the confused Princess Minghui being welcomed in—and then there was no more, and the people of Xunfeng Pavilion asked them to go back first, saying that Empress Dowager Ji would leave Princess Minghui to live

The princess's injuries are also watched by the queen mother's side of the imperial doctor, so they don't have to worry about it.

"I have repeatedly told the Queen Mother that it is only a small injury, but I am afraid that something will happen to the princess, and I will immediately call people to my side." The third concubine gathered again to borrow the moon and muttered, "It seems that those tanuki really have a problem!" ”

Yun Fenghuang said: "It's just that although this palace doesn't like those beasts very much, it's not that there are no people who raise cats and dogs, but I haven't heard that it will cause unhappiness because of this?" Of course, those tanuki may have been manipulated, but this should be something that the family knows. Bengong comes from a humble background, but the two of you are noble girls, don't you have any ideas at all? ”

Concubine Xuan and Concubine Rui glanced at each other, and both shook their heads: "Niangniang, if the concubines have guesses, they will not use Her Royal Highness Princess Minghui to test the Queen Mother." ”

"Aren't you married to the Ji family?" Yun Fenghuang asked in confusion, "I really haven't heard of the rumors at all?" ”

"Yes, yes, but that's all about the previous generation, this generation is ambitious because of the Ji family's power, and the elders in the family feel that they are quite impatient, so they politely refuse the marriage proposal." Concubine Xuan said, "As for the previous generation...... I haven't heard of anything yet. ”

Concubine Rui nodded: "Sister Xuan's family is fine, as for the concubine's family, I think Concubine Xian Niangniang has also heard of it, the concubine's grandfather is incompatible with the Ji family, and he was once relegated to a deserted place for many years, and he has only returned to the dynasty under the reuse of His Majesty this year." The Ouyang clan had married the children of the Ji clan earlier, but after his grandfather was demoted, he had no contact. ”

Yun Fenghuang pondered for a while, and said: "In this way, Ming'er will go to His Majesty's side of the palace, and ask His Majesty to find a reason to summon the princess, and then interrogate to see if you can find clues?" ”

The three of them finalized the matter, and they were waiting to use the emperor's name to set Princess Minghui's words, but in the evening of that day, the Qing people sent a message related to the princess, so that Yun Fenghuan could decide.
