Chapter XIV: Threats
"The mourning family wants you to speak by the emperor's side and persuade him to get closer to the Ye family!"
This time the Chen family's matter, it looked like the emperor was angry at the crown, but with his thoughts, he didn't know that he was not using the topic to play in it.
Although the Ye family has controlled the government over the years, it is inevitable that there are some loyal ministers in the court, and Ming Xuanze is now pro-government, and the queen mother feels more and more that she can't control his mind, so she can only start from other places.
And now Gu Feiyan is the best opportunity.
It turned out that she wanted to let herself be a lobbyist for her Ye family, Gu Feiyan laughed for a while, and secretly said that this scheming queen mother was really calculating.
But how did she think she would help her?
Thinking of this, she stretched out her lips and smiled, and said endlessly: "But why did the concubine do this, this is not good for the concubine, and the concubine's maiden family is not surnamed Ye." β
The Queen Mother's face sank, "Concubine Chen, the mourning family advises you, it's better not to be too absolute." β
This is clearly threatening her.
Although she didn't want to touch her for the emperor's sake, it didn't mean that she really didn't dare to touch her.
Gu Feiyan didn't want to provoke her, so he said: "Why should the Queen Mother be angry, the concubine is just a joke, don't worry, the concubine will do her best." β
"Well, you're a smart guy."
Her attitude of understanding current affairs made the Queen Mother very satisfied, and she said a lot of things with a smile, and then let Fei Yan go back.
"Niangniang, I was really scared to death just now." Walking to no one's place, Zhu'er turned pale with a white face, and looked at Gu Feiyan with some admiration, "Niangniang, when did you become so bold?" β
The Queen Mother was like that just now, she was so scared that she almost kowtowed and begged for mercy, but her master could still keep her face and heart beating, which really surprised her.
She is a simple character, otherwise she would not have found out for so long that the person she has served since childhood has already changed her core.
Gu Feiyan was still a little worried that she would notice something, but now she was already relieved, so she said: "Now it's not as good as when I was at home, there are crisis traps everywhere in the palace, if this palace is not stronger, I'm afraid that our master and servant will be dead a long time ago." β
This is true, the master has been framed once before he has been favored, not to mention that now he is in a high position, if he doesn't have some powerful means, wouldn't he really have nothing left to eat?
Thinking of what happened to Chen Jieyu last time, Zhu'er still had some palpitations, and hurriedly said; "It's the slave who is confused."
Gu Feiyan wanted to mention her early on, and took advantage of this opportunity to solemnly explain: "Now that Your Majesty is spoiling this palace, it will naturally cause dissatisfaction among many people, and presumably those conspiracies and means will follow, as the personal palace maid of this palace, you will naturally attract people's attention, in the future, remember not to be as naΓ―ve as before, and pay more attention to everything, you know?" β
Thinking of the palace fighting dramas he watched in his previous life, Gu Feiyan understood how crucial it was to have an alert and loyal palace maid by his side to help him. If it weren't for the fact that she had no one to change when she first arrived, and she suddenly drove away the personal palace maid who had grown up together since childhood, it would inevitably arouse suspicion, and she would have replaced Zhu'er a long time ago.
However, Zhu'er is not alert enough, but she is 100% loyal to her original body, and she is not worried that she will be bought, so she is also happy to raise and cultivate her.
Zhu'er obviously understood the seriousness of the problem, and hurriedly said: "Niangniang, don't worry, the slave will always be cautious in the future, and no one will have a chance to take advantage of it." β
"Well, usually be careful, if you find something suspicious and you can't make up your mind, you must remember to come to the palace and ask it, don't make a claim."
"Yes, slave remembers."
Seeing that she remembered, Gu Feiyan nodded and did not speak.
The two walked for a while, but Zhu'er heard her sigh.
Thinking of the past two days, she always had a sad face from time to time, and the loyal Zhu'er couldn't help but hurriedly ask: "Niangniang, what's wrong with you, but what's the difficulty?" β
"It's not that two days ago, His Majesty asked the palace to perform at the Dragon Boat Festival next month, and the palace is worrying about what to perform." Gu Feiyan hesitated, but decided to tell her, after all, although she inherited the memory of the original owner, she knew a lot of details, and Zhu'er had served her since she was a child, maybe there would be some way.
"This ...... It's better to find out what the rest of the girls are doing before deciding. "Zhu'er has a lot of ideas, so he immediately said.
As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing the other side will win all battles, Zhu'er's method is really good, Gu Feiyan said without hesitation: "If you are still paying attention, just do what you say, but you must quietly not alarm anyone." β
"Don't worry, the slave still understands this truth, you just have to wait for the good news of the slave."
Zhu'er is well aware of her own shortcomings, but the master is still willing to stay by her side to serve, and she even swears that she must do this thing beautifully, so that the master knows that she is not useless.
"Okay, then Hongu will wait." Gu Feiyan said with a smile.
Yaohua Palace.
When Ye Xinlan came out of the Queen Mother, her face was very ugly, and her personal palace maid was even more frightened.
Sure enough, as soon as she walked into the palace gate to be chemical, Ye Xinlan slapped her head and face.
"Slut, slut!"
The palace was full of her angry voice, and the palace people were so frightened that they quickly knelt on the ground, and they didn't dare to come out.
Ye Wanli has three sons and one daughter, and Ye Xinlan, who is an only daughter, is naturally loved, and has been raised by brocade clothes and jade food since she was a child, so she has developed a temperament that is indispensable.
In the past, when I was a girl in the boudoir, I was loved by my parents, loved by my brothers, and there were also those noble daughters of the family who were afraid of the power of the Ye family, and they were happy and happy.
But since entering the palace, all this has changed.
The beloved man hated himself very much, and tried to avoid himself without saying it, even the aunt who used to love her very much began to say that she was not, and today she left Gu Feiyan alone in front of those women, isn't this a public loss of face?
He Xiang, who was slapped by her, knelt down in no panic on her face, and even had a trace of numbness on her face that had long been commonplace.
"The concubine is angry."
Ye Xinlan is impatient and irritable, and if she doesn't like it, she will beat or scold the people around her, and her methods are very vicious, and today's slap is quite light.
"Presumptuous, unrelentingly angry, this palace still needs you to point fingers? Next time, if you have more mouths and more tongues, carefully pick your skin in this palace! β
