Chapter 637: Conspiracy and Conspiracy (8)

"Hey! I'm so, I'm so! After Yang Yan came back from the Queen's Palace, she gritted her teeth. When Li Jiancheng returned to the palace, in front of Zheng Wanzhen and all the concubines, he announced that he would let Xu Hui follow the waiter, and Yang Yan and others knew that this was just Li Jiancheng's temporary prevarication for his concubines. I believe that in a few days, there will be a new concubine in this palace, and I will definitely have a new 'sister'. The most important thing is that in this harem, Queen Zheng Wanzhen has another ally. Just when Yang Yan was annoyed, Yang Yan's personal palace maid reported to Yang Yanyu:

"Enlightened Niangniang! Princess Qi asks to see! ”

"Princess Qi! What is she here for? After the death of Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, Li Jiancheng remembered that Li Yuanji died instead of himself, so he named Li Yuanji's eldest son Li Chengye as the king of Qi, inheriting Li Yuanji's prince and Yang Yan's family, and the original princess of Qi became the princess of Qi.

"Xuan!"

"The concubine, the princess of Qi, the Yang family, see the concubine Niangniang!"

"Ahh Princess Qi hurry up, please get up! Sit! I don't know what the princess of Qi came to me for? The princess of Qi looked around, and motioned to Yang Yan to get the surrounding palace maids and eunuchs out, and after everyone went out, the princess of Qi, Yang Shi, said to Yang Yan:

"Guifei Niangniang, do you remember the minister's father, Lord Yang Da?" Of course, Yang Yan remembered that when he was in the former Sui Dynasty, Yang Dawei was a waiter of the Yellow Gate and a viscount. Tuyuhun invaded the western part of Sui, and Shangzhu Guoyuan was the marshal to conquest, and Yang Da was his subordinate Sima. After returning to the army, Yang Da concurrently served as a servant of the Ministry of Officials, and was subject to the three divisions of Kaifu Yi. Later, he was transferred to the internal history of Shilang, and successively served as the history of Shanzhou, Zhengzhou, Zhaozhou, the Ministry of Industry, and the opening of the government.

"Princess Qi, of course this palace remembers, and this palace still remembers that Yang Su, the Lord of Sikong, once commented on Lord Yang Da, saying that Lord Yang Da has the appearance of a gentleman and the heart of a gentleman, and the Manchu Dynasty is inferior to both civil and military! But later, I heard the impeachment of the imperial history, saying that Lord Yang had a loss of private morality, had an affair with the singer when he was young, and gave birth to an illegitimate daughter, but in the end, there was no evidence, right? Princess Qi smiled awkwardly. At the beginning, it was because of Yang Su's sentence that he had the appearance of a gentleman and the heart of a gentleman, and the Manchu Dynasty was inferior to this sentence, and was hated by Yang Guang, and then, after Yang Su's death, Yang Xuangan rebelled, and after being pacified by Yang Guang, he reprimanded Yang Xiong and Yang Da for some reason. It is indeed true that he had an affair with Fuchu Kabuki, but no illegitimate daughter was found. But he was still dismissed by Yang Guang by the opportunity, and later died of depression. Princess Qi said in a slur manner:

"Concubine Qi Niangniang! Actually, the incident that happened to the father of the Imperial History Counselor at the beginning...... That thing...... That's actually true! ”

"What?!" Yang Yan stood up from her seat angrily. Princess Qi was so frightened that she immediately fell from her seat and knelt in front of Yang Yan:

"Mother's forgiveness! Please listen to the concubine's explanation! In the explanation of the princess of Qi, Yang Yan slowly knew what was going on - at the beginning, Yang Da did have an affair with a singer in his house, but the Yang family was already a royal family, according to the convention, even if he had a relationship with the singer in the house, he also wanted the singer to drink the decoction for contraception, but Yang Da had a relationship with the singer, so he didn't let the singer drink the decoction, and later the singer became pregnant, died of dystocia during childbirth, and gave birth to a female baby, Yang Da liked it very much, but, This is a scandal after all, Yang Da's official wife is not willing to recognize this daughter, Yang Da has no choice but to raise a female baby as a singer, but there is a wall in the world after all, and at that time, Yang Guang wanted to deal with Yang Xiong and Yang Da, so someone should poke this matter out. Of course, Yang Da has been raising the child as a singer, and Yang Guang just used the excuse to beat Yang Da and dismiss Yang Da, but Yang Da died of illness not long after the dismissal, so the eldest lady of the Yang family sprinkled all her anger on the child and drove the child out of the Yang Mansion.

"Since you drove out of the Yang Mansion, why did you come out again now?"

"Yes...... It's because ...... Because her daughter is going to enter the palace, she wants her mother to help her. ”

"Presumptuous! When this palace is a person, a mere cheap maid woman also wants this palace to help? Who do you think of Hongu? When the princess of Qi saw Yang Yan's angry appearance, her whole body trembled, but she still had the courage to say:

"! In fact, the concubine didn't want to enter the palace to bother the mother, but that person was not a cheap maid, but ...... It's ......"

"And what? Swallow and spit out! ”

"It's the wife of the warrior of the Duke of Yingguo!"

"What? Why didn't you say it earlier! As soon as Yang Yan heard that it was the daughter of the warrior Yan who was going to enter the palace, she immediately had an idea in her heart - since the death of the Great Sui, she has been frightened, because Li Chengdao is the de facto eldest son of Li Jiancheng, and his talent and martial arts are very good, many people's eyes are attracted by Li Chengdao, and it has also aroused the vigilance of many Li Tang's upstarts and clan ministers, who often remind Li Jiancheng in front of him to prevent the restoration of the former Sui Dynasty. Of course, under the protection of Li Jiancheng and the mediation of Li Yuan, these discussions did not hurt him in the slightest, but Yang Yan was very afraid, as long as the crown prince was the emperor's woman and son, who could resist such a temptation. Also, whenever Yang Yan thought that she was Li Jiancheng's concubine and waited by Li Jiancheng's side, and her mother, the former supreme queen of the Great Sui Dynasty, was also bent her knees beside Li Yuan to curry favor, Yang Yan's heart was like a knife. In my heart, I hope that Li Chengdao will win the heir and become the third generation of Li Tang's son of heaven. However, in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, only Xiao Yu was desperately defending Yang Yan and Li Chengdao's mother and son because he was the younger brother of the Empress Dowager Xiao. Now, suddenly, Wu Shiyi's wife is the blood of the former Sui Yang family, and she is also the illegitimate daughter of Yang Da. This matter is equivalent to choking Yang Da's sore feet, Yang Da's daughter is the princess of Qi, and she has no power in herself, but Yang Da's brother Yang Xiong is very powerful in Li Tang, Yang Xiong's eldest concubine Changsun Shuxin was born in the Changsun family in Longxi and is the granddaughter of Changsun Zhi. The eldest grandson family was hit by Li Jiancheng because of the matter of the eldest grandson Wuji, but the eldest grandson Wuxian and the eldest grandson Wuyi are both in important positions, and the eldest grandson family still has some protΓ©gΓ©s in the military. The step-concubine Wang Yuanhua was born in the Taiyuan Wang clan and is the same family as Wang Gui. Wang Gui used to be the prime minister, and although he has passed old age, he is still very prestigious. Yang Xiong's eldest son, Yang Gongren, is now a provincial servant, a secretary of the ministry, and a prince of Guanguo! Bit high! Yang Qi, the current doctor of Sili. Yang Xu, Yunzhou Thorn History. Yang Gang, the lord Lang Zhong and Yang Shidao, is the concubine of Princess Changguang, the fifth daughter of Li Yuan, and the grandsons Si Xuan and Si Jing are now one of the servants of the Ministry of Rites and the other of the Ministry of Rites. Yang Xiong's third daughter married Lu Kuan, the Duke of Rui Guo, and the fourth daughter married Li Jun, the assassin of Weizhou. If the daughter of Wu Shiyan and the Yang family is sent to the palace, on the one hand, he can find a reliable ally for himself in the palace, and on the other hand, he can use this secret to blackmail Yang Xiong's entire family, so as to win over a large number of high-ranking supporters in the court and locally. can also prepare for the future when his son Li Chengdao becomes the crown prince and ascends the throne to prepare for the emperor. Yang Yan settled down and asked the princess of Qi:

"Princess Qi, what's going on? You continue to make it clear to Hongu! In the later narrative of the princess of Qi, Yang Yan learned that it turned out that after the girl was kicked out of the Yang Mansion, she met Wu Shi Yan, and first became the main lady of Wu Shi Yan by the nanny of Wu Shi Yan's child. It's just that she didn't give birth to a son, but gave birth to three daughters who are like flowers and jade, especially the second daughter of Wu Shi Yan, who looks like a sinking fish and a wild goose, and the princess of Qi also took out a portrait of Wu Shi Yan's second daughter, only to see the woman in the portrait, thin lips and phoenix eyes, hair shining like dark clouds, fair skin, and the whole person is like a fairy, which is intoxicating. Yang Yan sighed:

"I can't imagine that there is such a beautiful woman in this world! Can you guarantee that this painting is based on the real face of Samurai Yan's second daughter? ”

"Enlightened Niangniang! Concubines don't dare to lie! And, according to the visitor, the warrior Yan felt that his body was dying, so he sent his eldest son-in-law Helan Anshi to the capital with his testament, hoping to take the opportunity of His Majesty to recruit the world's colorful girls to send his daughter to the palace, but I hope to be able to get the support and care of the mother! Yang Yan looked at the painting again, looking at the beautiful face on the painting - if this woman is really as painted in the painting, then once this woman enters the palace, not all of us women in the harem will be widowed one by one. Yang Yan's heart fluctuated in constant struggle. Yang Yan didn't know how to choose. Princess Qi didn't speak on the side - didn't dare to speak! After a while, Yang Yan said to the princess:

"Princess Qi, after you go back, tell Helan Anshi that Lord Wu Shi Yan is loyal to the imperial court, and now, he is going to send his daughter to the palace, and the palace is very happy in his heart, so please rest assured that Lord Wu! Just send your daughter to the palace, and the palace will take care of it secretly. Princess Qi left happily. When the princess of Qi left, Yang Yan looked at the painting hanging on the wall again and touched it with her hand:

"Humph! Okay, you're a fox, you look so beautiful, shouldn't you be a fox spirit reincarnated! But it doesn't matter, this palace knows it in his heart! Man, there is no good thing, even if the palace stops you, it is difficult to guarantee that someone below will send you to the emperor's bed. ”
