Chapter 132: Elder Xuanji's Ambition
Later, it was reported that Elder Xuanji's daughter Wan Yanru was the most favored by Yeluhong among the concubines, and even she wanted the moon in the sky, so Yeluhong took her to the mirror lake in the imperial garden to catch the moon with her bare hands.
When Lin Qingzhi heard this, the corners of her mouth curved into a deep arc, but she didn't say a word, she has always sent people to pay attention to the dynamics of the court and the harem, although she has not relied on and supported her in this Khitan court.
One day, it was still a sunny day, Lin Qingzhi sat on the high platform of the courtyard of Qiyun Palace as before, facing south and looking at the dazzling sunshine, the sun reflected colorful and gorgeous light on her gorgeous palace clothes and phoenix hairpins, and her face was charming, she just squinted and stared at the sun, and Mrs. Ru, who was tinkling in her dress, approached without noticing, or rather, without turning her head to look at her.
I only heard a coquettish and arrogant voice ringing in her ears: "It is rumored that the queen of Allure has a smile on her face, and now when I see it, it is true, but in this palace, it is not empty of beauty to get grace, although this Qiyun Palace is gorgeous, but the king has not been here for half a year." ”
"Mrs. Ru, I've been waiting for you for a long time. Could it be that you came to Qiyun Palace to show off your might? Lin Qingzhi stared at her sharply.
"I heard that the queen still remembers the emperor of the southern kingdom who abandoned you, and this palace appreciates your affection, but, if you really can't forget it, why do you dominate the king's heart, you southern kingdom attaches so much importance to women's chastity, I'm afraid you will never get the heart of your beloved emperor again, right?"
"Xianglan, slap her mouth!"
"You dare!" Wan Yanru raised her eyebrows, and her voice was sharp.
"Look at me if I dare, Xianglan was stunned for what to do, slap her mouth, I don't say stop, don't stop! This palace has not been out of this Qiyun Palace for too long, I don't know that this harem has no rules like this, anyway, this palace is also the queen of the Khitan, no matter how favored you are after Yan Ru, after all, it is just a concubine, is it not that the rules of the Khitan country are not wives or concubines are servants, are the rules reversed? Lin Qingzhi said in a cold voice.
Wan Yanru didn't expect Lin Qingzhi to be so bold, and directly let the palace maid beat her, but she didn't dare to resist for a while, Xianglan had already been angry because of Lin Qingzhi's cold hand, and she was naturally ruthless, after almost twenty slaps, Lin Qingzhi raised her hand to signal to stop, Wan Yanru's face was already red and purple, swollen like a bun.
Wan Yanru glared at Lin Qingzhi hatefully, her eyes seemed to want to devour her alive, Lin Qingzhi looked at her proudly, smiled, and said: "I know you hate me for locking your mother in the Jade Palace, and pouring her a bowl of saffron anther soup every day, but this palace has no regrets at all, if you want to take revenge, just come, this palace is waiting for you in this Qiyun Palace." ”
"Lin Qingzhi, you wait, one day I will watch you die with my own eyes!" Wan Yanru's voice was like a ghost, but Lin Qingzhi just raised her eyebrows and chuckled.
"The palace is tired, Xianglan, send off!"
Wan Yanru left Qiyun Palace with a group of people angrily, watching them walk away, Xianglan asked suspiciously: "Queen, why didn't you tell her that it wasn't her mother in the Jade Palace?" ”
"The king didn't tell her, why should I talk too much." Lin Qingzhi shook her head and said with a light smile, she has never regarded Xianglan as an outsider, so in front of Xianglan, she never claims to be the palace.
Later, I heard that that night, Wan Yanru complained about Lin Qingzhi's arrogant behavior in front of Yeluhong, hoping to get the king's mercy, and ordered to punish the queen who could not get the king's favor for half a year, but I didn't expect Yeluhong to just reprimand her, and punished her for a year, but did not punish Lin Qingzhi at all, and because of this incident, she never went to Yan Ru for a month.
Time flies, time flies like an arrow.
The most favored in the palace are still Madame Ru, Madame Xiang and Madame Yun, and two of the three ladies were already pregnant with royal heirs, but one was weak and the other had a miscarriage because of too much musk inhalation.
However, the position of the three ladies is stable, which shows that the three forces of the DPRK and China have formed a three-legged trend, but they are secretly competing in an attempt to get rid of their opponents and dominate themselves.
Among them, Mrs. Ru's father, Elder Xuanji, has the most momentum, and the king also relies on him more, after all, he was the one who took the king to the Jin Kingdom, and he made great contributions to the king's ascension to the throne of God.
It's just that all this collapsed on an autumn afternoon, and a hurried pace hurriedly ran in front of Lin Qingzhi, Xianglan pushed open the door, Lin Qingzhi put down the booklet in her hand, looked at Xianglan strangely and asked, "Why are you so flustered?" ”
"Just now, there was news that someone handed the secret fold to the king, saying that it was Wanyan Shangqing, and it was Elder Xuanji who rebelled!"
"And what does the king say?"
"I heard that the king has mobilized his army."
"I don't know who betrayed Master." Lin Qingzhi said worriedly, but a subtle smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, got up and walked to the bed, opened the window, and let the cool autumn breeze blow on her face.
Who is it? Of course, Lin Qingzhi knew that she had been waiting for this day, waiting for Elder Xuanji to take power, waiting for Mrs. Ru to win the unique favor, and all this was only because of a bet she made with Yeluhong, and the result was that she won.
A year ago, Yeluhong and her two were playing a game of tea, and she asked Yeluhong what Yeluhong would do if one day his master, Elder Xuanji, wanted to rebel.
Yeluhong twisted his eyebrows and thought for a moment, and said silently, "I believe that Master will not." ”
Lin Qingzhi chuckled at the corner of her mouth and said, "What if there is such a day, what should you do?" ”
Yeluhong's face changed, and he said, "I will not allow anyone to covet my throne, and the Khitan royal family can only be surnamed Yelu." ”
Lin Qingzhi then said: "Then let's make a bet?" ”
"Bet on what?"
"Gambling Master, I know you don't want to believe that Master will have a day against you, although you are ruthless, but you are affectionate, so if he has that day, let me make this knife to end him, if not, I won't touch him, and you won't be embarrassed in the middle, how?"
After a long silence, Yeluhon said, "Okay." ”
Therefore, Yeluhong favored Wanyan Ru to crown the six palaces, and gave Elder Xuanji Wanyan Lie the supreme status and power, just to prove that he was not mistaken, but the fact is that when the status and power of their father and daughter became more and more powerful, Elder Xuanji secretly recruited troops, and even secretly recruited some generals and generals with official positions in the army, and the intention was self-evident.
Therefore, Yeluhong could no longer tolerate Master's actions and decided to get rid of him in one fell swoop.
Poor Yan Ru heard that her father intended to rebel, and she couldn't figure out why her father, who already had the glory of ten thousand people, wanted to rebel and ascend to the throne at an old age, she didn't believe it, so she ran to the Beihua Hall and knelt down, praying that Yeluhong could thoroughly investigate her father's affairs, and at least spare his capital crime.
However, the arrow is already on the string, and it has to be sent, how can she control it, and besides, she is just a pawn from beginning to end, whether it is for her father or for Yeluhong.
Yeluhong only said "This matter has nothing to do with you" and ordered her to be sent back to the palace where she lived, she didn't believe that her father would do anything wrong, and she didn't believe that Yeluhong, who doted on her, would be so ruthless and not give her a trace of affection, and only wanted to put her father to death.
