Chapter 517: Death is not far away
Although Mao Cong is only the son of the main prisoner, many things are still cleared, and the excerpt that Ji Yanning gave him, he dared to change the content of it after seeing it himself.
As Ji Yanning said, there are some astrological changes written in it, and it is very similar to the style and way of his father's daily writing excerpts, ordinary people can't see it, and if those contents are carefully figured out, it shouldn't cause any trouble to his father.
So he just thought about it for a while and agreed.
It's just that he naturally couldn't tell his father about this, after all, he promised Ji Yanning.
And if Ji Yanning is involved, I don't know how this matter will end.
Mao Cong knew that his father was a Qintianjian who was insignificant in the eyes of others on weekdays, so he guessed that Ji Yanning was just borrowing a hand.
In a few days, his body should be in good shape, and his family will no longer have to worry about his body in the future.
The result of this "astrological change" is that Su Guifei is going to be sent to the still water hermitage.
Hearing the news, Concubine Su glared at the second prince in disbelief.
"Emperor, are you joking with your mother?" Su Guifei grabbed the second prince's arm, shook it extremely hard, and looked at him expectantly, hoping that what she heard just now was just a misunderstanding.
Rong Yu looked at his mother, and his heart was irritable, but he could only comfort: "Mother, I just went to the Jingshui Nunnery to recuperate for a few days, and when I found the antidote, I immediately went to ask my father to let my mother come back." ”
Concubine Su shook her head: "Don't go to any nunnery in this palace!"
Rong Yu frowned, and said with some embarrassment: "Mother, I have tried my best to persuade my father, but the current situation is really unfavorable for my mother, I am afraid that it is a trap set by the third child and the queen, and now I am really powerless to return to the sky and cannot persuade my father." ”
Concubine Su said: "The palace wants to go to see the emperor in person...... No, I can't go, if the emperor sees me like this, he will definitely dislike me. ”
The Emperor had actually come to see her once, but he only glanced at her and left, after all, the smell of her body was really unbearable, so he let her recuperate.
Since she entered the harem, where has she suffered these grievances?
But this is not enough, how can she accept it if she is still asked to go to the still water hermitage?
"Mother, it's all useless to me, I can't protect you. Rong Yu hung his head, a little self-reproachful.
He couldn't find out who poisoned him, and he didn't find the antidote, and now he let his mother be attacked by all kinds of rumors, and even put himself and Zuo Xiangfu in an opposing situation.
Concubine Su is exhausted now, and she knows that she has to go to the still water nunnery now.
can only say to Rong Yu: "Emperor, only if you become the prince and ascend to that position, can the mother concubine have a bright future." ”
Rong Yu's eyes moved slightly, and he said, "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely not live up to my mother's hopes." ”
He's come this far, and there's no way he's going to go any further.
"Mother, don't worry, I will take you back to the palace soon. Rong Yu said.
Concubine Su can only hope for her son now.
On the third day, Concubine Su, who had sorted out her things, entered the still water nunnery in a low-key manner under the arrangement.
Originally, Jingshui Nunnery had already sent away a princess, but I didn't expect another concubine to come, their small temple is really full of disasters, after all, these two people came here for the same reason, it must be extremely difficult to serve.
Although Concubine Su Guifei walked in a low-key manner, many people in Chang'an knew it, but they felt embarrassed.
But the five princesses can come back, maybe Concubine Su will be able to continue to return to the palace, and no one dares to find a way to ridicule others at this time.
When Ji Yanning heard the news, his eyes were very calm.
"Miss, this is a good time. Yuan Wu said to Ji Yanning.
Ji Yanning dropped the white zi in his hand on the chessboard, hooked his lips and said: "It's indeed a good time, you know, others also know, so if you send someone to assassinate Su Ningxue at this time, although you have a chance of winning, it is not the best time." ”
In any case, Concubine Su is the biological mother of the second prince, and she is also very important to his succession.
Therefore, when Su Guifei went to Jingshui Nunnery on this trip, someone must have been secretly guarding her.
If someone is sent to assassinate at this time, it will inevitably expose some clues and tricks.
Yuan Wu listened to Ji Yanning's words and asked, "When does the eldest lady think it is the most appropriate?"
Ji Yanning gently picked up a sunspot again, his eyes were still staring at the chessboard, and said, "After Jiaojiao's wedding." ”
There is still nearly a month, which is enough for the second prince to carry a little heel, but I am afraid that by then, the patience of the people of Jingshui Nunnery for this noble concubine is estimated to be almost exhausted.
Yuan Wu bowed: "My subordinates know." ”
Ji Yanning looked at the chessboard and frowned slightly, but she didn't fall for a long time, but she still continued: "Now that the second prince has broken a Su Guifei, he is relatively at a disadvantage with the third prince, and he has to continue to find other ways to make up for this disadvantage."
At this time, there are quite a lot of people standing in the third prince, and if you want to pull people to stand in line, I'm afraid it won't be easy, but Ji Yanning knows that with the second prince's temperament of being eager for quick success, there is a best way.
It's getting married.
Now that he has taken a leave of absence from Murong Yixue, the position of the second princess is vacant, so it is natural to choose a suitable young lady from the family to be the second princess, just so that he can win over the courtiers.
In addition, there is also the fifth princess who has just come back, who is at the age when she can get married, and choosing a colt for her must also be in the Gaomen clan, and she can still support his second prince.
Ji Yanning said: "You let people stare at it a little more, if the second prince has someone who is particularly close recently, remember to inform them in time." ”
Yuan Wuying said: "My subordinates understand. ”
Ji Yanning let Yuan Wu retreat, her slender fingers between the sunspots, and the sunspots fell, but there was a slight chill in her eyes.
Su Ningxue, your time of death is coming.
Feng Dai stood in front of the door of the Ji Mansion, a little hesitant.
She really didn't want to come over again, because Ji Wenxu had already made it clear to her that it was impossible for her to be with him.
It's just because of Li Xiaoyun's urging that she now has to stand in front of the door of Ji Mansion.
"Miss Feng, why are you here?"
As soon as Ji Wenxu came back from the Criminal Department, he saw the hesitant Feng Dai standing at the door and asked.
didn't expect Ji Wenxu to suddenly appear, Feng Dai was stunned subconsciously, and then said: "My father said that you helped him two days ago, and he asked me to send you a pot of wine as a thank you gift." ”
Feng Dai said and shook the thing in his hand, which was a pot of wine.
Ji Wenxu laughed and said, "Uncle Feng is really polite, it's just a gesture, not to mention what thank you we need to find between us?"
As he spoke, he opened the door of the Ji Mansion.
Feng Dai followed him and walked in.
Seeing Ah Ren coming, Feng Dai handed the wine in his hand to Ah Ren.
"I heard my father say that now the criminal department is looking at you differently, Brother Axu is really amazing. Feng Dai said, "It seems that Brother Axu will definitely be able to become a big official in the future." ”
Hearing Feng Dai say that, Ji Wenxu's eyes moved slightly, and he said, "Actually, being a big official is not necessarily a good thing. ”
Feng Dai saw that his eyes were a little lonely, and couldn't help asking: "How can it be? As a big official, you don't have to worry about eating and drinking, and you have so much power, you can not be bullied by others." ”
Ji Wenxu said: "Except for the person at the top, who can guarantee that he will not be bullied by others?"
He knows his background that the Ying clan had a glory that was the envy of countless people, but didn't it end up so miserably in the end?
There are also signs, it was impossible to live at the beginning, and it was not the same as being pulled down by himself?
He really didn't care about these vacancies.
But he likes to work in the criminal department, after all, he likes to do things he likes, such as investigating cases.
Feng Dai said: "Look at what you said, I don't know how big an official you are." Did your father also come from an official eunuch in the past?"
When Ji Wenxu heard Feng Dai say that, his eyes moved slightly and he shook his head.
Now his identity is a distant relative of Ji Yanning, and the fake information says that he is not from a scholar family.
But Ji Wenxu's shaking of his head made Feng Dai a little disappointed, and what was lost was that Ji Wenxu was hiding a lot of things from her.
She knew from Li Xiaoyun that the Ji Wenxu she did was the stupid eldest son of Zhongdebo Mansion at the beginning, who pretended to be stupid for more than ten years, and finally pushed his father into hell with his own hands.
He never said these things, but just told others that he was Ji Yanning's relative.
It turned out that he was the same as those others, and he was the object of his defense.
Ji Wenxu only said a few words to her, and then went back to the study to deal with his own affairs.
But Feng Dai didn't leave immediately, and exchanged a few words of greeting from Ah Ren and the cook, and then left.
It's just that she just came out of the alley and was about to turn right, but someone grabbed her wrist and pulled her into another alley.
Feng Dai was about to struggle, but found that this person was actually Li Xiaoyun.
She glared at Li Xiaoyun: "Captain Li, let go." ”
Li Xiaoyun let go of her hand and looked at her with lowered eyes: "What, what did you ask?"
Feng Dai turned her head away, didn't look at him, and said, "I didn't ask anything." ”
Seeing Feng Dai's weak appearance, Li Xiaoyun didn't have to think about her to know that she was lying.
"Don't toast or drink. Li Xiaoyun's eyes were slightly cold, and he said, "It seems that you and Ji Wenxu still haven't forgotten the old relationship, and you don't even care about your father's life or death?"
Hearing Li Xiaoyun threaten himself like this, Feng Dai gritted her teeth and glared at him: "Don't threaten me with my father!" I really don't know, you don't know how strict the people in their Ji Mansion are, you don't know how strict they are, you have such a great ability, why should I let a little girl do such a job!"
Li Xiaoyun saw her angry appearance, and he didn't know why he was happy.
He said: "The people of Ji Zhai are unguarded against you, and it is most appropriate for you to inquire." ”
