This year's Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet finally came to an end.

After all, when the life and death of the Empress Dowager were unpredictable, the emperor personally went to the palace at night, and the important ministers took the initiative to ask for an escort on the side...... In such a situation, no one will have the heart to continue drinking and having fun, enjoying singing and dancing.

“…… You've worked hard this time, too. Chun Jia hastily ordered a few words before leaving, ordering Ouyang Yanran and Yin Qu to jointly preside over government affairs, and the harem was ruled by the queen concubine, so Ouyang Yanran and Yin Qu persuaded the courtiers away, leaving the ground full of messes, making Gu Zhen look at it again with a burst of depression.

But seeing the aggrieved and disappointed looks of the young concubines below, he still persuaded a few words, "It's just that I didn't expect the Queen Mother...... Alas, but I hope that her old man is peaceful. ”

Gu Zhen has sympathy for the Empress Dowager, but if you want to say that you don't want her to die, it is impossible.

Especially this time Chunjia's insistence on going to the palace, Gu Zhen was even more in his throat: this master was obviously no longer close to the emperor due to the concubine's repeated sowing discord earlier, and even, the rift increased, and he had to go to Fuyang County to protect the relationship between mother and son, and the result was !!

The nurturing grace over the years has not been in vain.

At the critical moment, the emperor had an impulse, obviously forgetting all the bad things about the Empress Dowager Yuan in the past, and remembering the queen mother!

If Empress Dowager Yuan is gone, then Gu Zhen will be thankful!

Anyway, don't care about the emperor's grief afterwards, the comfort is over.

But if Empress Dowager Yuan still has a breath left......

Wouldn't there be another ancestor on top of his head in the future!

No, there is one more ancestor, that was in the past, and between them, it was just a pure contradiction between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

However, now that the Yuan clan has fallen, the root cause of its demise is inseparable from the Gu clan!

If Empress Dowager Yuan had been in this situation of being exiled in disguise, it would be fine, once she turned over successfully, it would ...... Is it possible to say that this loving mother and queen mother have no ill will towards Gu Zhen and the Gu family?

Gu Zhen felt dark when he thought of this, and couldn't help but glance at the concubine, and decided to go back and talk to Yun Fenghuang about it.

What the concubine said sounded good, but in fact, she definitely didn't want the Empress Dowager Yuan to survive.

Although their relationship is bumpy, in this matter, Gu Zhen believes that the two sides must have the same interests, and there must be many places to cooperate and discuss.

Yun Fenghuang didn't have the heart to think about all of this at this time, all she was thinking about was Chunjia's words just now, was it sincere?

Or is it on the spur of the moment?

Of course, this Son of Heaven is not the kind of person who is easily impulsive......

However, the Queen Mother is not someone else.

How to say it, it may be that the goal of the camp has been suddenly achieved, and the concubine feels that there is not much sense of reality at the moment.

In her original plan, it was a long and difficult process to let Chunjia abolish the heirs and establish Xian.

Because the Son of Heaven is determined, he is not the kind of person with soft ears at all.

Yun Fenghuang believes that it takes a long time to be subtle and imperceptible before there is hope...... It is also possible that Chunjia was not fooled at all, and it would be useless for her to use all her strength.

The goal she set for herself was to kill the two concubines before the king of Jin became a vassal and let the emperor's mind be on this biological son.

Now that it has been completed so quickly and so well, Yunfeng Huang is still in a trance until he returns to the Huanhua Palace.

"Don't worry, mother." Seeing this, he thought that the concubine was concerned about the Empress Dowager of Loving Mother, so he hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her, "The Empress Dowager of Loving Mother has her own natural appearance, and she will definitely not suffer much." [#~Aiqi Literature *¥ fastest update]

This is the real henchman.

I won't say that the Queen Mother will be fine, but that I won't suffer much...... The implication is that the Empress Dowager Yuan will definitely leave quickly.

After all, this is the news that their mother wants to hear.

In fact, Yun Fenghuang really thinks so at the moment.

She asked someone to open the west window, patted her cheek against the wind and snow, sobered herself up, and thought about what to do in the future?

Chunjia said it herself, let her cultivate her knees in the future, and the words revealed that the candidate for the prince will no longer be bound to the son-in-law, but will be selected and established.

The word "virtuous" is actually very interesting, because whether it is virtuous or not, the emperor often has the final say.

After all, pure filial piety may be a virtue, or it may be a kind of incompetence, because there are no other advantages, you can only make a fuss about filial piety that everyone can do......

Arrogance and arrogance can be a shortcoming, or it can be a character-a decisive and self-confident ...... Of course, Chunjia's acquisition of the throne is full of accidents, hardships and even dangers, and he still attaches great importance to the inheritance of the Gongxiang clan, so it is unlikely that he will be biased to such a point.

But Yun Fenghuang also understood that if the emperor didn't lie to her, as long as the prince in front of the others didn't obviously suppress the prince under her knees, the main hall of Qingci Palace would basically be hers in the future.

And there are so many princes in front of her, even if King Qin's qualifications are not good, but the seven princes and the nine princes seem to be okay, and the fifteenth prince born to her and Chunjia is the flesh and blood, normally, the qualifications will not be very bad...... In general, the road to Qingci Palace has been quite certain.

"Success, Xiao He, defeat, Xiao He!" Thinking of this, instead of being happy, Yun Fenghuang sighed, looked in the direction of the palace, and muttered, "If the Empress Dowager is a hundred years old this time, it will be fine, otherwise, in the future, I am afraid that the life of the palace will be difficult again." ”

After all, Chunjia was shocked by the bad news of Empress Dowager Yuan, so she changed her mind.

Whether Yun Fenghuang is happy or not, she must admit that this time she is stained with the light of Empress Dowager Yuan.

So if the Empress Dowager Yuan survives, will Yun Fenghuan still be able to compete with this Empress Dowager in the future?

She can be shameless, what will Chunjia think when the time comes?

I'm going to let you get what you want, but you're still not willing to show compassion to me and let Yuan's mother a little bit?

He just doesn't say it, and he will definitely think so in his heart.

Take 10,000 steps back, even if Chunjia doesn't care, what about the others?

Chunjia hinted that he would be virtuous, but Yun Fenghuang was not the kind of naïve who only entered the palace, she was cultivated as a concubine when she was young, and she had also read history books.

How many princes who had no foundation in the previous dynasty and were able to ascend to the throne purely with the support of the Son of Heaven were able to go to the end?

She herself is an example in this regard, she has been relying on Chunjia's imperial favor to live, and she knows how strong the fear and precarious feeling in her heart is.

It's not that she doesn't want to cooperate with the former court, the key is that the Xie family's background is too thin, and there are not too many useful children, so she can only accept her fate.

Therefore, even in order to prevent his heirs from being attacked by other princes in the future, Yun Fenghuang can only change his mind and begin to be a virtuous lady who combines words and deeds.

I know that this feeling must be very resentful, but it seems that Gu Zhen is willing to endure it until now.

For the sake of the future, but it is also worth it.

How many concubines of all dynasties in this palace have not endured it? But how many of them can live in the main hall of Qingci Palace?

Yun Fenghuang slowly exhaled, put aside the matter, but thought about the arrangements for a few children.

Although the matter of cultivating the heirs under her knees, she will spare no effort without Chunjia's advice. But at the beginning, I didn't even have a lot of confidence in my heart about whether I could convince the emperor, and many arrangements inevitably left room for improvement.

Now that the emperor has given the right words, Yun Fenghuang suddenly doesn't want to work hard to cultivate the Nine Emperor Princes......

Even if the emperor showed considerable affection for the Empress Dowager Yuan this time, but thinking about the toss of the Empress Dowager Yuan in the first two years, Yun Fenghuang felt that if he could, it would be better to sit on the throne and kiss his son.

However, the King of Jin is too young, and the Nine Emperors still have to be raised as their own sons, so I am afraid that the King of Jin will also be very good in the future, how to arrange a few cheap children, and they will be willing to give their own sons a hand?

…… She basically didn't sleep that night, and she watched the east turn white over and over again.

The next morning, Chunjia held a great court and was congratulated by the ministers.

But something like that happened last night, of course, the courtiers won't enter the palace today, and only hand over the invitation.

After that, represented by Ouyang Yanran and several other important ministers, kowtowed in the direction of the palace at the gate of the palace, that is.

It's the harem, and the queen still has to take the concubines to ask the queen mother for peace.

Qingci Palace is very quiet, and there are not many New Year's decorations.

The Empress Dowager's attitude was as always, lukewarm, neither embarrassed nor cordial, and after a few words with the concubines, it was difficult not to turn the topic to the Empress Dowager.

"She's still young, so she won't be a big deal." The Empress Dowager said lightly, "It's just that although you are younger, your temperament is still a little better, and what the Yuan family says is also your elder." is very old, and it is pitiful to have to run around.

”

Gu Zhen was very depressed in his heart, and he had to laugh and say: "What the imperial grandmother taught me is that my granddaughter-in-law wrote it down." ”

The Empress Dowager let out a faint "um", and didn't say anything about it, so she asked about a few imperial heirs.

This great-grandmother of the emperor does not have a word for the cheap great-grandchildren and great-granddaughters in her name in normal times, but when she comes to her, she is also very loving.

That kind of kindness is not so much the love of an elder for the younger ones, but the demand of a high-ranking lady of high birth and status on her own speech and demeanor.

It's as if the Empress Dowager and the concubine Ji Sheng didn't deliberately embarrass Xie Meng back then, but had some rewards.

However, this year, because many of the emperor's heirs have entered school, they were asked by the Queen Mother, and they stepped forward to answer, but there were a few children, who were very much noticed by the Queen Mother.

Especially the Seven Princes.

Yun Fenghuang because of the Qishan Palace, the Seven Princes went to the Empress Dowager's side, and at this moment, they looked at the words and looks, and saw the Empress Dowager looking at the Seven Princes with a smile, and raised her eyebrows slightly.

I don't know if this is really just remembering the old people through the Seven Princes, or is it ...... What are your plans?

Anyway, the grievances between the Queen Mother and Chunjia and her are too deep.

You can't trust each other in this life.

After going through the motions like this, seeing that the time was about to begin, Gu Zhen was about to take the lead in mentioning it and retiring, when he heard the Empress Dowager ask about King Yi and his wife.

…… At yesterday's Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, King Yi and his wife actually showed their faces.

It's just that after the poisoning of Empress Dowager Yuan came out, no one paid attention to these things.

At this time, the Empress Dowager asked, and Gu Zhen remembered that the concubines all knew that although the Empress Dowager was at odds with the regent uncle and sister-in-law, she had some feelings for King Yi, so she figured out the Empress Dowager's thoughts and said a lot of good things about King Yi and his wife.

After leaving Qingci Palace like this, the queen didn't wait to go back, and on the way she sent someone to the side of Yunfeng Huang's chariot to say hello, asking her not to go back to the Huanhua Palace first, and to go to Yanfu Palace to discuss matters.

"What do you mean by the imperial grandmother, King Tiyi?" Half an hour later, the concubine entered the Chongchang Palace, and the queen beckoned her to sit down, frowning slightly, and then talked about the topic, "Don't you see that Your Majesty is not in Beijing now, and you have thoughts that you shouldn't have?" ”

"Maybe it's because people are old and miss the younger generations who have grown up." Yun Fenghuan didn't want to make trouble at this time, so he said casually, "After all, Your Majesty just went to the palace, and it's not a thrilling thing." Moreover, with so many heirs under His Majesty's knees, what is King Yi now? ”

Gu Zhen thought about it, sighed and said: "Maybe it's because the past two years have been too difficult, this palace is listening to these people's words now, and there is no one who is not afraid." I'm afraid I'm too stupid to miss the message inside. ”

Seeing that Yun Fenghuang smiled and didn't say anything, she hesitated, thinking that because of the viciousness of the concubine, she would definitely not have a good impression of the Empress Dowager Yuan, so she said directly, "The Empress Dowager of Loving Mother...... If it weren't for the bad news that happened to come this time, the main palace would be fast

It's time to forget those days. ”

"The mother laughed, how could it be?" Yun Fenghuan squinted slightly, stared at the queen for a moment, and wondered if Gu Zhen should not be stupid enough to use this matter to trick himself.

After all, Gu Zhen himself was not less ruthless to the Empress Dowager Yuan.

She made a fuss about this, and she couldn't get any benefit for herself.

The concubine quickly thought about it, and if she wanted to say that she didn't want Empress Dowager Yuan to get better, of course the people in Xuanqing Palace thought the same way.

But she can't do it now, if the queen is willing to be a gun, then ......

His mind turned, and Yun Fenghuang said slowly, "There are some things that I can't forget in this life." Even if His Majesty is as calm and wise, didn't he care about it last night? ”

Gu Zhen thought that this was a euphemism, and the concubine didn't want to see Empress Dowager Yuan get better, let alone come back to the palace to continue to be an ancestor, so her expression suddenly relaxed a lot.

After all, when it was her turn to deal with Empress Dowager Yuan, she couldn't.

But the concubine is okay!
