Chapter 554: The Imperial Concubine Loses Position
Hearing this, Ruan's face became serious, she let go of Li Wanyan, met her eyes, and asked, "What's wrong?" What happened? ”
Li Wanyan glanced at Lianxiang and said, "You take them out first, I will tell you something." ”
"Yes, little lord." Lianxiang lowered her head and agreed obediently.
Then she went to the outhouse, called out all the palace maids who were guarding, and then closed the door, leaving a separate space for the mother and daughter.
After the outsiders left, Li Wanyan said solemnly: "Mother, yesterday the emperor took back the harem authority of the imperial concubine and returned it to Concubine Duan, I doubt that the emperor wants to set up a prince, just in case, if this is the case, then my daughter may not have much time and opportunity for my Li family to become the unshakable first family of Chengqi." ”
Ruan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "No, the emperor will not make a prince so early." ”
"Why is my mother so sure?" Li Wanyan was puzzled.
"You know Sun Guiren, his father is ostensibly in the same camp as your father to support the emperor, but your father found out that his father actually supported the eldest prince behind his back, and the two still have private contacts, otherwise do you think the emperor will really be punished so severely because of Xinyue? He is warning the great prince and the Ministry of Rites. Ruan said slowly.
After Li Wanyan heard this, she was a little shocked, "If the emperor wants to warn the eldest prince, why did he give power to Concubine Duan?" What exactly does the emperor want to do? ”
Ruan squinted his eyes and thought for a while: "The emperor is deep in thought, his thoughts are elusive, maybe he really has the intention of supporting the eldest prince, after all, this plague is difficult to control." ”
"What should my daughter do?" Li Wanyan had no clue.
Ruan Shi soothed: "I will go back and tell your father about this matter, you don't have to think about the rest, if you want to fight for the back position, then go and fight, your mother and father will always be your most solid backing." ”
Hearing this, Li Wanyan also understood the attitude of her parents, at least they still support Jun Huaiyu now, and the rest will be talked about later.
"Okay, mother, my daughter knows, my daughter will definitely take good care of herself, don't let you worry, you two elders also have to take care of your health." Li Wanyan admonished.
Ruan nodded, "Your father is kind to Yang Zhi, I heard that Yang Zhi is now catching assassins in the palace, if you are in trouble, you can go to him for help, for your father's sake, he will not die without help." ”
"Well, my daughter remembers."
The two of them talked about the old for a long time, and the Ruan family left the palace and did not go to visit the imperial concubine, obviously there was still resentment in her heart, blaming her for not taking good care of her two daughters, this matter fell in the eyes of those who cared, knowing that there was indeed a gap between the imperial concubine and the concubine, at least now they would not stand in a line, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
Yongxuan Palace, after the imperial concubine heard that Ruan's departure from the palace, her face was not good.
"My sister-in-law rarely entered the palace once, went to visit her two daughters, but didn't come to the palace, what does she mean? Resentment that Hongu didn't take care of her daughter or gave up supporting Hongu? The imperial concubine said coldly.
Although everyone knows that after Li Wanyan enters the palace, the Li family may not fully support her, but these are all secret speculations after all, and they are not put on the bright side like this.
Ruan Shi is not the only one who comes to see her now, isn't it just to explain to everyone that their relationship is no longer good and will no longer support her, and those who secretly want to deal with her will have no scruples in the future.
The imperial concubine said angrily: "First lost the right to be in charge of the harem, and now it has been given up by the Li family, if those women seize the opportunity, they will definitely fall into the well of the palace, and they are really angry with the palace." ”
Cuiyun comforted: "Don't be angry, at least the emperor still favors you, with the emperor's favor, this is the foundation of gaining a foothold in the harem, not to mention that you are the highest-ranking concubine in the harem, who can deal with you." ”
"You know what you said about this palace, but this palace is angry, this palace married the emperor for the Li family, and they were fighting all day long, fighting with this and that, so that the Li family's position was stable, but they actually gave up this palace, and let their daughters compete with this palace for favor, they all forgot what this palace paid for them, how can you call this palace not angry?" The imperial concubine's chest rose and fell.
"Niangniang's mood slaves and maids all understand, since these relatives are so ruthless to Niangniang, Niangniang does not need to show mercy to them, the Prime Minister's wife this time this is to let everyone know that Niangniang has lost the support of the Li family, so that Niangniang is in danger, and wants to borrow the hands of others to deal with Niangniang, they are so ruthless to you, Niangniang will no longer have to worry about them in the future, just live for yourself." Cuiyun persuaded.
All along, although she is on Jun Huaiyu's side, she also has feelings for the Li family, if the Li family has no other thoughts, she will also protect the Li family, but they sent Li Wanyan to compete with her for favor and the posterior, even so, she did not intend to harm Li Wanyan's life, at most she wanted her to be left out in the cold, and there was no harm in competing with them.
But Ruan's move clearly showed everyone the attitude of her family, so that she lost her support in the harem, but at this time she had no rights, and there were many people in the harem who were jealous of her and wanted to harm her, and maybe they would take advantage of this opportunity to step on her.
is so ruthless, so unmissive, it makes people feel cold.
The imperial concubine nodded heavily and said: "Cuiyun, you are right, they are ruthless to me, and I don't have to be righteous to them, this palace will not be merciful in the future!" ”
Cuiyun nodded and said: "Niangniang can think clearly, the slave and maid can rest assured, come, Niangniang, you can drink tea to dissipate your anger." ”
The imperial concubine exhaled and took the teacup, the tea lid was gently played on the teacup, and even the waves in her heart gradually subsided in this collision.
What surprised everyone was not only that, not long after Ruan's departure, Li Wanyan went to Concubine Duan's Yong'an Palace with a lot of gifts, and when she contacted Ruan's behavior, everyone couldn't help but speculate whether Li Wanyan and the imperial concubine had fallen out, and now they have switched to the Duanfei camp.
"My sister has seen my sister, and I have been in the palace for some days, but I have never come to visit my sister, these gifts are carefully selected by the concubines, and I hope my sister will like it." Li Wanyan said with a smile.
Concubine Duan smiled and said slowly: "My sister is serious, since it is my sister's heart, how can I not like it, Jinyun, you will bring the things brought by the concubine and the things sent by other concubines to the treasury." ”
"Yes, sissy." Jinyun said obediently.
Li Wanyan was silent, but she listened to Concubine Duan's last words in her heart, it seems that before she came, many people had already come to the door to talk to Concubine Duan, these people are quite discerning, in this way, Concubine Duan may not be in a hurry to choose teammates at all.
