Chapter 44: Characters Can't Collapse!
When Yun Fenghuang hurried to Yi Xingen's courtyard, the situation had calmed down slightlyβit meant that the big movement had stopped, just looking at the subordinates kneeling on the ground inside and out, and the emperor who was sitting on the main seat expressionlessly, he also knew that it was not over yet.
"Your Majesty." Yun Fenghuang stepped forward and saluted, quickly looked around, didn't find Yi Xingen's figure, and was about to knock on the side to find out what happened, when he saw the emperor wave his hand to let her get up, and immediately pointed to the inner room, and said briefly: "Aifei go in and see by herself." β
The tone was cold and hard, and the anger was hidden, and it seemed that he had moved the real anger.
This surprised Yun Fenglian, because in her impression, this master is not a person who likes to show his emotions, what kind of change can he pretend to be so angry at night?
"The concubine obeys the order." Bowing his head and blessing, Yun Fenghuang walked into the inner room.
Before entering the door, she felt that she had been mentally prepared, for example, when she saw Yi Xingen lying in the tent with a foreign man in disheveled clothes, but she didn't expect to turn the screen, but the first thing she saw was ...... Ji Duzi ?!
Rao is Yunfeng Huang was not shocked and couldn't help but be stunned: "Why are you here?!" What about Yi Bongyi? β
Probably because of the lights, Ji Duzi didn't look as bleak as the day at the moment, her cheeks were red, her lips were delicate, but there was no sadness or joy in her eyes, she wrapped herself in a light pink satin brocade quilt, and raised her chin behind the tent when she heard the words, and said lightly: "The concubine threw it after she fainted people." β
Yun Fenghuang: "......"
She calmed down, and didn't go over to look, only exited the inner room, and knelt down in front of the emperor, "The concubine has no way to be the emperor, please punish Your Majesty!" β
The emperor held a cup of hot tea in his hand, but he didn't drink it, he just played carelessly, and after a while, he put the tea bowl on the table, and glanced sideways at his Jieyu.
Yun Fenghuan's attitude at the moment is very upright, kneeling humble, the head is slightly drooping, the hurriedly pulled bun falls loosely behind the head, and the oblique red gold luan bird title bead hairpin glows with cold and luxurious brilliance under the candle flame, and the gold folded silk beads string earrings in the ears complement each other, showing that her eyebrows are like ink, and her skin is better than snow.
"......" The emperor stared at her, and the atmosphere in the room, which was not too relaxed, became more and more tense, like a bow, opened to the extreme, just when the somewhat timid palace people could no longer bear the pressure and were crumbling, the emperor finally spoke, as if he had already restrained his anger, and asked calmly, "What does the concubine plan to do?" β
Yun Fenghuang couldn't tell him what he was thinking, thought about the wording, and then said: "The concubine is still shallow when she entered the palace, and she has never encountered such a thing. His Majesty wants the concubine to deal with it on the spot, but the concubine is afraid that she will not have such an impatience. The concubine body is just thinking, Ji Concubine and the people around Yi Fengyi, I'm afraid it's inappropriate? Also, Yi Fengyi is still in the room, should he move out first and let the imperial doctor take a look? β
After saying this, he held his breath and stood with his hands down, waiting for the emperor's reaction.
The emperor sneered: "It's just the people around them? The people around them are just slaves, and they don't have the idea to be the master, where do they get the courage to do nonsense?! β
Without waiting for Yun Fenghuan to answer, he raised his voice again, sharp
said, "You can pretend to be Yi Fengyi tonight and use the incense medicine to calculate me, and tomorrow you can also use the poison dagger to greet me?!" Before, Ji Tingzhao instructed the slave to sneak into the lake by diving through the water on the Chun Title Lake, and pulled me into the water, and said that there was no malice in making a joke - why did Jieyu still have to argue for Ji's family, and made me believe that Ji's palace concubine was also unintentional, and she came to Yi Fengyi to joke with me!? β
ββ¦β¦ The concubine didn't dare. "Yun Fenghuang almost wants to vomit blood, what kind of pig teammate is this!
Not to mention the mustard between the emperor and the Ji family, it is not at all that Ji Duzi can reveal it by taking the initiative to invite pets and flattery, not to mention that Ji Mingji was imprisoned in front of him, at this time, the Ji family did not restrain his deeds and was cautious in his words and deeds so as not to be caught to make matters worse, and he actually rushed to do something to make the palace concubine stunned and take the joy on his behalf......
Is this because Ji Duzi doesn't have a long brain, or is she dizzy and made this decision?!
Forget it, no matter what this master thinks, the matter has been done, and the starting point doesn't matter anymore - Yun Fenghuang stood up to the emperor's cold and sharp gaze, and said stiffly, "Your Majesty, the concubine and Concubine Ji are both concubines in the palace, and they are both your people, even if you are a little careful, it is impossible to be jealous of the wind and jealousy, and it is impossible to say that you are plotting to kill Your Majesty and borrow 100,000 guts from the concubine!" The concubine felt that Concubine Ji should just be jealous of Yi Fengyi, and she was dizzy from competing for favor! β
She knew that this could not convince the emperor, because the emperor personally proposed that the main responsibility was on the master rather than the minions, and obviously vetoed Yun Fenghuan's proposal to turn a big incident into a small matter and pull a few minions out of the top cylinder.
How could it be agreed at this time that the nature of the matter should be determined to be a mere struggle between concubines?
So seeing that the emperor frowned, he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the concubine body has a few words, please let the concubine body play it alone!" β
ββ¦β¦ All down. The emperor narrowed his eyes when he heard this, looked at her for a while, and commanded lightly.
There was a silent sound of relief behind him.
Yun Fenghuang said again: "I also serve Concubine Ji and Yi Fengyi to go to other rooms to wait for orders." β
Seeing that the emperor did not object, a few clever palace people hurriedly entered the inner room, and it didn't take long to carry the two palace concubines to the next door for placement.
There were only two imperial concubines left in the room, and the emperor's expression was a little relaxed: "Can you say anything about the concubine?" β
"Your Majesty, the Duchess of Ye Guo is not cold, and the Empress Dowager is still sick." Yun Fenghuang tightened his handkerchief, lowered his head, and said softly, "At this moment, even if the Ji family has the negligence of raising their children, Your Majesty, as the Son of Heaven, should also be tolerant, after all, everyone in the world knows that it was the Ji family who advocated the establishment of His Majesty in Fuyang!" β
She said this in a calm tone, but her heart was pounding.
The emperor simply listened, and did not mean to be angry, but only asked lightly: "Ai Concubine is saying that I will tolerate the Ji family all my life, even if they are rebellious and aggressive?" β
"Of course not!" Yun Fenghuang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said in his heart Even if the emperor was actually angry at the moment and did not have an immediate attack, it can be seen that he is still willing to listen, then there is a chance, "The Ji family welcomed His Majesty back then, not purely for His Majesty's consideration, this is one of them; Second, Ji's these
was arrogant and domineering, and even had ill intentions to murder the emperor's heir, and he was disrespectful to His Majesty, and he also consumed all the credit of Yingli...... But, the Ji family is the Ji family, Your Majesty is Your Majesty, and the Ji family is a courtier, how can you compare with Your Majesty? β
The emperor looked at her: "Go on! β
Yun Fenghuang pursed his lips and looked up at him: "Concubine is brave, may I ask Your Majesty: Your Majesty is in his prime, wise and martial, is he only willing to be a king of success, or follow the example of His Majesty Emperor Taizu, calm the world, clarify the universe, and be the master of a generation of Zhongxing?" β
"It's just Jieyu, but the tone is not small." Chunjia stared at her and snorted, "Such words...... Is that what you can say? β
Yun Fenghuan said: "In his position, the concubine is a palace concubine, and the honor and disgrace of life and death are tied to His Majesty's body, and it is not natural to seek for His Majesty?" β
The emperor snorted, "You have a reason for what you do...... Okay, don't follow the advice of the strategists, and get straight to the point. β
"The Ji family can be disloyal and unjust, but Your Majesty can't help but miss the old feelings." Yun Fenghuan said softly, "Because the Ji family is like yesterday's yellow flower, but Your Majesty is like the rising sun, and the coming day is long!" β
So let me indulge the Ji family again, so that I can show my broad-mindedness and benevolent character, so as to impress the government and the opposition?
The emperor smiled silently: "I heard that the predecessors once said that Yi Di was afraid of power but not virtue, and looking at the temple today, it is nothing more than that. β
"The human heart is qie, as it has been since ancient times." Yun Fenghuang said calmly, "However, if you can choose, who will let the generous Ming Jun not defect, but do things under the hands of mean and unkind people?" β
Seeing that the emperor was silent.
She clenched her hand and let go, repeating this twice, and finally mustered up the courage to say, "Although His Majesty Emperor Xiaozong has no children under his knees, the nobles of the side branch clan are not only the regent and His Majesty. The Ji family was ambitious, cautious and suspicious, and the regent prince was less than ten years old at the time, and they didn't believe it, but in the end they chose His Majesty...... Isn't it? β
Think about how you came to power?
Isn't it that in order to let you inherit the prince as a concubine, Empress Dowager Yuan has been brushing all kinds of positive characters since birth, such as gentleness, filial piety, knowledge, gratitude, well-behaved, sensible, considerate, and kind?
There are more people who believe in it, and Ji also believes it, thinking that you are easy to control, and it is not easy to fight against the water, and the most important thing is that even if you are against the water, you will not be ruthless because of your soft-heartedness and other reasons, so you decided to help you ascend the throne?
At this time, if you chase and beat the Ji family, or when the old housewife of the Ji family has just died, the Duchess of Ye Guo is still assassinated in the palace, and the Empress Dowager Ji is still sick, even if you have the handle of the Ji family's misdeeds, can you not make people talk about this is a stone for the Empress Dowager and the Ji family? !
Not to mention that the Ji family has been in power for many years, even if they are dizzy if they don't check for a while, whether they still have the ability to turn things around, let's just say that this temple is up and down, and now it is not just the Ji family who is holding the emperor's power.
Now that you've ruined the character you've built up over the years, can the others, including the regent who is working with you, feel a little sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox?
The emperor has been in power for so far not a few months, in the middle
In order to confuse the Ji family, he didn't make any big moves, even if he had accumulated some strength, judging from the fact that he needed to kill the Duchess of Ye Guo himself, I am afraid that it would be very shabby and he would not be able to take it. This time, he was able to smoothly control the Ji family, and the regent definitely made a great effort.
However, however, the regent was willing to do this, not so that the emperor could do it, but because he had his own plans. Taking a step back, even if the regent suddenly wants to open up, he doesn't want to fight with the emperor for anything, he just wants to shine for the future of the Gongxiang clan, he is a half-step emperor's brother!
Can you not worry about the emperor turning over old accounts after he holds power, or just send his whole family down to see Xiaozong for the sake of Ce Wanquan?
In short, when you have an absolute advantage, or when you have nothing, you show a hideous and ruthless side, and it's okay. The former don't have to worry, the latter just fights back.
For example, when Yun Fenghuang persecuted Xijing, there was no taboo, because Xijing's identity and means were too far behind her, so big that even if Xijing suspected that her status was unstable, she was powerless to resist.
But if the emperor is at this moment, he has an advantage, but only Xiaohe shows his sharp corners; There are chips, but the victory or defeat is still in the blur, in this case, the performance is too mean, but it will arouse the vigilance and fear of the opponents, maybe the same enemy will solve him first?
When Yun Fenghuang scared Yuan Neem Niang before, he said that although the emperor has no son, the clan has it!
Back then, he was able to give Xiaozong a successor to Chunjia as his heir, why can't he do it again and give Chunjia a young heir?
In short, the most advantageous option for the emperor now is to continue to maintain the image of gentleness and soft-heartednessβalthough the speed of the seizure of power may be slowed down, it is not easy to attract unanimous targeting when the position is not yet secured, and to give the opponent a chance to live, and when he deals with others in the future, those people will not resist to the death, involve the public, and deplete the country......
Of course, this is excellent for the overall situation, but it is not enjoyable for the emperor himself, as well as for the people who have accompanied the emperor to endure humiliation and burden over the years.
If this is Yuan Mei's aunt and nephew, Yun Fenghuang will never say it even if he thinks so.
After all, that Yue Jieyu's sex. Child......
But Emperor Chunjia, Yun Fenghuang still has a little confidence in him, because just yesterday, this one was still acting conscientiously.
ββ¦β¦ was born as a woman, and she was really wronged by her concubine. She finished speaking in one breath, lowered her head, and stood with bated breath.
After a while, the emperor sighed and said, "In that case, what do you think I should do with this matter?" β
