Chapter 33: Wolf Ambition
In the early morning of the next day, Ziyan was really unwell, weak, and dizzy.
After the imperial doctor saw it, in order to ensure the stability of the dragon heir, Wu Yunzhao ordered not to make a noise, and temporarily covered up Ziyan's pregnancy, and declared that Ziyan had gastrointestinal problems due to irregular diet, and planned to publicize this matter at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet a month later.
Right now, the person serving by Ziyan's side is no longer Zi Kite, but a palace maid named Zilan. Zilan is honest and responsible, does things properly, and is a person who can be trusted. And Zi Kite was single-handedly planned by Ziyan and driven out of the Lizheng Palace on the grounds that his hands and feet were not clean. Through the exchange of palace maids, Wu Yunzhao also knew how Ziyan's wrist was.
Wu Yunzhao repeatedly told Zilan to take good care of Yan Cairen, and talked to Ziyan for a while, asking her to raise the fetus with peace of mind, and then instructed Xiaoshun to inform Wang De that he could not arrange Ziyan's sleeping in the near future, and asked him to remind him in front of Xiong Yan.
Since Wu Yunzhao secretly replaced Xiong Yan to revise the chapter and share government affairs, Xiong Yan has changed a lot of views of the queen, because he has asked for others, so he often comes to the Lizheng Palace to add glory to the queen.
Ziyan has always lived in the side hall of the Lizheng Palace, and has a close relationship with the queen, so she naturally got a lot of opportunities to contact His Majesty. Among them, there are many who began to cling to Wu Yunzhao after realizing it, but who can get the same treatment and live with the queen? The result of all the good words was only a few words of praise from the queen, but he could not get the queen's trust and promotion, only in his own palace, waiting for His Majesty's occasional arrival, looking forward to the grace of poor Baba.
Two days later, the news that Ziyan could not accompany the king due to illness spread in the palace, which made many concubines happy for a while, and began a new round of more fierce open and secret battles.
Regarding the intrigue of women, Wu Yunzhao put his mind on it, but he didn't put his mind on it. It's just because of the urgency that she has to do is how to keep Xiong Yan's throne.
A few days ago, Wu Yunzhao and Liu Ruohua found Xiong Yan's own uncle, the current King of Chengping, and the leader of the forbidden army, Xiong Hao, in the library pavilion, who had clues about the defilement of the palace and collusion with concubines. During the secret investigation, he accidentally obtained Xiong Hao's intention to commit a crime and usurp the throne.
Wu Yunzhao is also staring at the throne, and as a last resort, he can only choose to temporarily protect the stability of Xiong Yan's throne. After all, a wolf-like ambitious person like Xiong Hao is by no means easy to get along with. This prince is not incompetent, if he is allowed to be a god, Wu Yunzhao knows that he will probably not be able to snatch it. The first thing Xiong Hao did after succeeding to the throne was to clean up the harem of the former dynasty, including the palace concubine who had an affair with Xiong Hao, no one was spared, and they all had to be buried with Xiong Yan.
It is a matter of life and change of dynasty, and we must not only rely on a queen and a virtuous concubine, but must unite the power of the monarch and ministers to act together to have a chance of winning.
However, the queen ran out of the palace again and again too dazzlingly, so the heavy responsibility of delivering the news this time fell on Liu Ruohua. Last time, Liu Ruohua pretended to be a palace man and went out of the palace with Wu Yunzhao, but this time he was openly and honestly married as a virtuous concubine. Wu Yunzhao is not what he used to be, and when he mentioned it in front of Xiong Yan, he got permission and successfully sent Liu Ruohua out of the palace.
Wu Yunzhao was in contact with the coup d'Γ©tat for the first time, and he was also terrified in his heart, before he couldn't wait for Liu Ruohua to return, and before he couldn't get the advice of the prime minister and others, he couldn't do too much in order to avoid startling the grass and snakes.
On the afternoon of the third day after Liu Ruohua left the palace, the weather was suffocating, and Wu Yunzhao took Ziyan to the imperial garden to breathe. But seeing the lotus leaves in the pond and the red lotus blossoms, the mood is not bad.
I only heard Ziyan say: "Sister Queen, if you put some lotus leaves and lotus flowers in the palace, it will look cooler, I often feel chest tightness and shortness of breath now." As he spoke, he stroked his chest.
Wu Yunzhao smiled: "Isn't this simple? Yan'er, what you want in the future, what you want to arrange, just give me a direct command, don't have to ask me. β
Ziyan said with a smile: "Yan'er knows, but in the palace, there are not many rules, so as not to be caught by others." It is better to avoid unnecessary troubles and save you the trouble. β
Wu Yunzhao nodded and said, "It's better to be cautious." He turned his head and instructed: "Xiaoshun, go to the flower room, let them arrange some lotus, remember to choose elegant varieties, and the aroma should not be too strong." By the way, you also ask Wang De and Mama Lin beside the Queen Mother, if Your Majesty and the Queen Mother like it, they will be arranged together. β
Xiao Shun said: "Yes", and took the order to leave.
Soon after Xiaoshun took the order to leave, the noble concubine Sun Hongxiang and the concubine Han Rongjia also came to the imperial garden, and after saluting Wu Yunzhao, they took their seats together.
I only heard Han Rongjia say: "I haven't seen Yan Cairen for a long time, are you feeling better?" β
Ziyan said: "Thank you Sister Concubine De for your concern, the imperial doctor said that it will be fine to recuperate for a while, but it is not good to catch up, sometimes stuffy and sometimes hot, and it is better slowly." β
Han Rongjia said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay to get well quickly so that you can serve Your Majesty well." β
Ziyan said: "Sister Concubine De said yes. After a pause, he smiled and said: "However, my sister has an ordinary appearance and average appearance, and she is never as good as the queen mother and the concubine mother, and she is dispensable in this palace, so it doesn't matter if I don't care about it." β
