When the Empress Dowager was suspicious of Empress Dowager Yuan, Empress Dowager Yuan was also suspicious of her: "Regent? The mourners think it's unlikely! How much time has Liuhong been by Concubine Xian's side, when is it difficult to do it, why do you do it at this time? Concubine Xian didn't just make a feud with the regent! ”

"But Concubine Xian just went to Qingci Palace before the accident, could it be the Empress Dowager's handiwork?"

"Otherwise, how could the regent prepare so well today, so that my son's hard work was in vain?"

Dipping Liu said: "Concubine Xian has been unconscious for a few days after being poisoned, could it be that the regent is worried that His Majesty will find out the truth, so he prepared a back hand in advance?" ”

She didn't speak for the Empress Dowager, but, "If the Empress Dowager has the ability to poison people unknowingly, then it's not just Concubine Xian who goes to Qingci Palace to ask for peace these days." ”

The emperor has also been there, if the empress dowager can choose, how can she let the emperor go without harming the virtuous concubine?

“…… Perhaps. Empress Dowager Yuan frowned and sighed, "In this palace, it's still not clean!" But I hope that my son will calm down the former dynasty as soon as possible and clean up this harem...... Otherwise, I can't let go of the heart of the mourning family! ”

She's just such a son.

What if there was a three-year-old and two-short her?

Chunjia didn't come to Chunqing Palace on this day, only sent a royal attendant to run errands and condolences, and after he left Qingci Palace, he went to Xuanqing Palace - Empress Dowager Yuan was in a complicated mood, but the little mustard between mother and son has not been lifted, and she didn't want to add pressure to Chunjia at this time, so she endured it, and told the waiter that she was all right, so that the emperor could concentrate on the government and the poisoning of the virtuous concubine, and she didn't need to take care of her.

She will take care of herself.

The waiter went back and told Chunjia, and Yan Yin, who had privately received the benefits of dipping in willows, took the opportunity to say some good things to the Empress Dowager Yuan, probably that the Empress Dowager Yuan is Your Majesty's own mother, well, closer than your own child.

Chunjia's expression was faint: "The queen mother has always been distressed. ”

Then I buried myself in the recitals.

Of course, this day was very unsmooth for the emperor, and the alliance between the empress dowager and the regent was definitely not a good thing for him, and it could even be said to be a big one. Troublesome.

As a simple regent, Junjia has enough confidence to take care of it, at most, it is only the length of time it takes.

The simple Empress Dowager is better to clean up, without the Ji family, this person has nothing but his noble identity and seniority - it can be said that life and death, honor and disgrace are between Chunjia's thoughts.

But now that they are colluding, then the regent is equivalent to having an elder who pulls the shelf to protect him, and this elder also has his own Ji inheritance; The Empress Dowager is not a lonely and helpless old woman who wants to kill Chunjia and put her under house arrest if she wants to, whenever she is a little dissatisfied, the regent can make a big fuss in the court on the grounds of questioning Chunjia's unfilial piety to his grandmother.

The most terrible thing is that there have always been rumors in the palace that Emperor Xiaozong wanted to establish the emperor's younger brother before he died.

The holy decree was prepared, but it was simply rejected by the Ji clan - this is the enthronement of Chunjia.

I also know that at that time, if such a holy decree can be suppressed, the Empress Dowager will definitely contribute.

Now that she is on the side of the Lord Regent to deal with Chunjia, she has no choice but to admit this holy decree.

When the time comes, how will Chunjia deal with herself?

In short, the emperor will definitely not have a good time in the next few days.

But after nightfall, there was good news: Concubine Xian woke up.

Although she fell asleep again after waking up for a while, and didn't even have time to say a complete sentence, the two imperial doctors who had lost a lot of weight in just a few days were still relieved: if she woke up like this, if there was no accident, this lady's life was saved.

The next thing is nothing more than to slowly remove the toxicity and slowly recuperate to make her better.

When Chunjia received the news and rushed over, Concubine Xian was already asleep again, he stood by the couch for a while, and then ordered Xie Meng and Xie Kuo to be on standby outside the dormitory at any time from tomorrow: "If Concubine Xian has the spirit to speak after waking up, let them go in and accompany them." Just be careful not to let them tire the virtuous concubine. ”

Qingdu and the other attendants responded cautiously, and Qingdu turned around and told Zhu Cao and them, that is, to try to let Xie Kuo come forward, because although Xie Kuo is young, he is much more measured than Xie Meng, which is more worry-free.

"But Miss Meng may not be happy." Zhu Cao agreed, and reminded her, "I'm afraid there will be trouble then." ”

"It's up to her." Qingdu frowned slightly and said, "The most important thing now is Niangniang, once Niangniang ...... Who of us can please us? If Miss Meng is still not sensible, please ask her to go back to the house and stay! You should know what is important! If you are worried, I will blame the mother or lady when you turn around, and I will bear it all by myself! ”

In fact, if it was usual, even if they knew that Xie Kuo was more sensible and well-behaved than Xie Meng, they would still favor Xie Meng.

After all, they are all from the Jiang family, can they take extra care of the Jiang family's own granddaughter?

Xie Kuo is in the next room after all.

But the current situation is different, if it weren't for Chunjia's orders, they wouldn't want the two children to disturb Yun Fenghuan at all.

But this is the emperor's wish after all, and he can only accept it.

Around noon the next day, Chunjia was still in the middle of the court meeting, Yun Fenghuang was awake again, she was in much better spirits this time than yesterday, she felt hungry after waking up, ate some porridge, asked a few words about the current situation, and was afraid that she would worry, and did not dare to tell all of them, only said that the emperor was still investigating the murderer, and for her to have been stationed in Xuanqing Palace for several days, she only went to the court to listen to the matter in the past two days, and will come back soon to continue to accompany her...... At the end, let Xie Meng and Xie Kuo come forward to greet their aunt.

Yun Fenghuan smiled and said a few words to them, and then fell asleep uncontrollably.

At this day's court meeting, because Princess Minghui had not been picked up from the palace, there was no serious discussion about the poisoning of Concubine Xian, and it was not too intense.

But everyone felt that it was only a brief calm before the storm.

The long-standing contradictions between the royal uncle and nephew have reached the verge of exploding.

Due to the abrupt addition of the Empress Dowager, the victory and defeat that were originally clear were once again obscure...... Chunjia rarely felt pressure, and did not go to Xuanqing Palace immediately after the dispersal of the dynasty, but stayed in the Taichu Palace to deal with some government affairs, and summoned a number of important ministers.

He was a little sorry to learn that Concubine Xian had just fallen asleep a quarter of an hour ago, but when he learned that Yun Fenghuang was much better than yesterday, he breathed a sigh of relief, with a slight smile on his face, and ordered to reward the imperial doctor and the Huanhua Palace.

Even Xie Meng and Xie Kuo got something.

Xuanqing Palace revealed a joy inside and out, although Chunjia only rewarded the main hall and ignored the palace concubines in the side hall, but they were just as happy.

Because the lord survived, then most of the palace concubines should be fine.

Especially Yi Xingen, Qu Hongzhen, Zhao and other people who are usually close to Yun Fenghuan.

If Yun Fenghuang went like this this time, even if they were not all sent down to the main throne for burial, they would not have such a good day to enjoy the shade under the big tree.

Yes, although there is no lack of fear of Yun Feng Huang, the palace concubines of Xuanqing Palace also have to admit that this lord position actually gives them a sense of security.

This time, for the sake of her uncertain life and death, several palace concubines even privately promised to be a lifelong vegetarian to pray for her.

I am afraid that after her death, she will have no backer and annihilate the palace.

Different from the joyful atmosphere of Xuanqing Palace, the apse of Hansu Palace is like a falling ice cellar.

Ruifei Ouyang Fulu, Manya's lady Meng Youyi, Zhaoyi Yin Qian and the newly degraded Jieyu Luo Hanyi gathered together.

"How is this possible?!" Lady Manya, Meng Youyi, was the most unruly and the most unbreathable of the four, so she took the lead in shouting, "We did have some people in Xuanqing Palace, but we are just looking for some insignificant news, they are all over the side hall, and they can't even touch the corners of Concubine Xian's clothes, let alone poisoning the tea she drinks?!" ”

"Can you really do this, do you have to wait until now?!"

"As early as when I entered the palace, I killed her!"

"Sister Meng is cautious!" Concubine Rui frowned lightly and reminded in a low voice, "If this word spreads, it will be more and more necessary to confirm our crime of murdering Concubine Xian!" ”

Meng Youyi's chest rose and fell violently, obviously resentful: "Those who are clear are ...... self-purifying"

"It's useless." Luo Hanyi interrupted her, "The Ji family is an example. ”

The four of them were silent for a while.

"Fortunately, His Majesty is still partial to us." Zhaoyi Yin Qiqiang smiled and said, "This is not ...... Give all the evidence to the elders of our family and let them dispose of it themselves, this is ...... Isn't that the same as not happening? ”

Then he was looked at by the other three as fools: "If Your Majesty really wants to do something that didn't happen, as for handing over the evidence to our father and brother?" It's clear that I just don't want to make a big fuss! ”

“…… Where do I not know? It's just to look at your lifeless appearance and cheer you up. Yin Qian was a little embarrassed, coughed dryly, and muttered, "I know that Your Majesty is deliberately gracious." But what can be done? We did buy eyeliner for Xuanqing Palace and inquire about the news, if Concubine Xian hadn't had an accident or we hadn't been found out, wouldn't we have been sued by the Gu family to the palace?! ”

"Your Majesty didn't make it public, and privately returned the evidence to my four families to destroy, how can I say that it is also grace and trust...... Where is this not the truth? ”

This time, instead of contemptuous of her, the other three sighed in unison.

Even if they can't fight Concubine Xian, they are still from the family, and they still have basic consciousness, that is, Chunjia is like this, and it is impossible for the four of them, or the four of them, to succeed.

Even if they only learned from their families two days ago that Chunjia's mother and son had no intention of fulfilling their promise at all, they still felt disappointed.

After all, I have been aiming at this goal since before entering the palace.

The result?

It's almost the last step, and it's all in vain.

"Who's telling the truth, you say?" After a moment of silence, Meng Youyi unwillingly slammed the table and asked in a deep voice, "Is it Concubine Xian who instigated Your Majesty to cut off our idea of succession, or is everything a conspiracy of the Gu family?" ”

It's no wonder that she is at a loss, this thing is like this: two days ago, not long before Concubine Xian's accident, the four families privately got a news that Chunjia's mother and son actually didn't plan to give them the succession position at all, but wanted to use this son to win over Zhao Wubo and dig the corner of the regent.

This idea is that in order to prevent the concubine who was born as a noble girl and was favored from pressing on her head, Concubine Xian specifically said that Chunjia would move Chunjia, and Chunjia would say that she would move the Queen Mother.

The source of the news is the remnants of the Ji family, and after repeated confirmation by the four families, it is believed to be credible.

They must have hated Concubine Xian at that time, but as a family, the first thing to bear the brunt of is not revenge, but to consider the interests of the family: is it to follow the emperor's wishes and take the initiative to give up the position of successor in exchange for other benefits? Or did they try to force the mother and son to keep their promise?

As a result, before they could think about it, Concubine Xian had an accident.

The four families also communicated with each other privately for this reason, asking each other who did it?

Then I found out that this was not done by any one company...... They discussed it and thought that Empress Dowager Yuan was more suspicious......

Because the ladies of the family unanimously agreed that if this idea was really made by Concubine Xian, and the emperor was moved, then from the position of Empress Dowager Yuan, even if it would be adopted, Concubine Xian would have to die!

Just two days ago, the four families were still thinking about whether to intervene and involve the poisoning of Concubine Xian with Gu Zhen, and cut off the possibility of Gu Zhen as the future?

As a result, just now, the emperor summoned the heads of the four families one by one, and threw a box of vouchers to show them, saying that Zhao Wubo's younger brother had secretly sent them. He felt that although the evidence was ironclad, the four families were not such people, let them take it back and dispose of it themselves, and pay attention to what they did in the future, don't be cheated and don't know!

The four families inexplicably carried the box back, and when they went back, they exploded: it was all about the corruption of the four of them, and there were also a series of records and evidence such as the four concubines who inserted eyeliner to buy people to spy on the emperor's traces and intrigue after entering the palace!

…… While some of it is far-fetched, at least half of what happened is true.

What else can be said about this?

If Chunjia cures them of their crimes, they can still shout grievances, justifications, appeals, and bite back, Chunjia directly gave them the box, and the words are that I don't want to pursue me, I don't care about you, I trust you very much, I even protect you - in this case, if they still go to the emperor to shout grievances, then what's it?

I don't know what to do.

They can only hate and target the Gu family.

This is what the previous dynasty was going to do, and as for Gong Yu's side, he hurriedly handed a message in, so that his daughter could be more leisurely from now on, and he was not allowed to stretch out his hand to other concubines, especially Concubine Xian!

At the same time, tell them that there is no hope for the future.

After all, Chunjia clearly revealed to the four families that the impeachment chapter and a box of incriminating evidence were all handed over by the Gu family.

The Gu family can pay it once and it can be handed over a second time, and the emperor is willing to defend them, will the Gu family?

If I could, I wouldn't have that box of stuff.

So next, a more decent approach is that the four families privately took the initiative to propose to the emperor and give up the promise of succession.

Let the emperor set up Gu Zhen as the successor.

Meng Youyi was suspicious: "Maybe this is Your Majesty's purpose, Concubine Xian and the Gu family, but they have a name." ”

Chun Jia has not been standing again or twice, even Meng Youyi is difficult not to doubt that he has done such a thing.

“…… What did your family tell you? Luo Hanyi and Ouyang Fulu glanced at each other and looked at her with pity, "This kind of thing, what is the truth, where is it so important?" In short, in this game, all four of us lost, didn't we? ”

They are concubines who rely purely on the family, and the family loses, what can they do themselves?

Former Empress Ji Lingzi, after the overthrow of the Ji family, could only leave the palace and go to Shanyuanguan to wait for death, isn't it?

Meng Youyi bit her lip and snorted: "People can't stand without faith, Your Majesty is going back on his word like this...... I don't believe there will be no trouble! ”
