Qiu Yulan was slightly stunned that Empress Dowager Ye would speak first, and that it was such an opening, and after thinking about it, she said: "I have indeed suffered a lot, but I don't know why the Empress Dowager thinks so?" ”

Originally, she still wanted to stare at the Jiang family and deal with the Empress Dowager Ye leniently, but now that she saw this old man, she didn't have any idea - anyone could see that even if the Jiang family didn't do it, the Empress Dowager Ye wouldn't live long. []

I'm afraid that she has gone from being a high-ranking step-queen to a reclusive so-called queen mother, and she can still live secretly for so long, just because of her belief in hibernation and waiting for an opportunity. When the opportunity moves, the spirit is also discharged, and people naturally can't hold on.

"Because this method was also learned by chance from a hard-working man." Empress Dowager Ye stared at her, her eyes were complicated, there were both sadness and resentment, but more of it was depressed, "In the early years, Liang Xiaogeng had to steal everywhere to support himself because of his poor family. Once, he stole several eggs from a farmer, but was caught - the boy was so hungry that he did not forget to stuff the raw eggs into his mouth and swallow them, so he annoyed his master, and in a fit of rage, he poured some arsenic used to poison rats, and then threw him into the field to die, but he was safe! ”

It seemed that after saying this, she was a little tired, she closed her eyes, "Later, he really couldn't get along and could only be an attendant...... When I first entered the palace, I was very depressed, and often went to the place where he was responsible for sprinkling and sweeping, and I got acquainted with him, and he wanted to relieve my boredom, so he said this, and in his opinion, this is the heavens that will not die him, but I am curious...... I privately took two palace maids who were originally executed with canes and tried it, and sure enough, it ......"

Speaking of this, Empress Dowager Ye stopped, Qiu Yulan pondered for a while, and said: "I know this method, but my mother knew it when she was afraid that I would be harmed by others and inquired about the art of poisoning. She thought to herself, no wonder Empress Dowager Ye was so down, and she could still command the emperor's close attendant Liang Xiaogeng, it turned out that these two had a friendship for a long time - how many years has it been since Empress Dowager Ye entered the palace after her? Forty years? Fifty years?

And listening to Empress Dowager Ye's tone, the two were not directly subordinate and subordinate at the beginning, otherwise neither Empress Dowager Gu nor Empress Jiang would have let Liang Xiaogeng serve the emperor closely. However, because of the cleaning of the place, Liang Xiaogeng was a mood trash can for a long time when she was a girl, Empress Dowager Ye...... This kind of relationship that has had a heart-to-heart exchange, not to mention platonic love, how can you be a confidant, right?

Otherwise, how can ordinary friendship be able to let the other party work hard after more than 30 years of downfall?

"Although the mourning family has been here for a long time, Duanrou often comes to visit, and I can still hear about things outside...... You have a good mother. Empress Dowager Ye let out a sigh, opened her eyes again, and looked at her sadly, "It's a pity that the mourning family is really useless compared to your mother's concubine, and she couldn't protect her sister's biological flesh and blood back then, and seeing that the prince's family went, only Qiyang was left...... Now I want to speak softly for Duan, but it dragged her down! ”

Qiu Yulan pursed her lips, but she still couldn't hold back, and said, "Niangniang, I really don't understand why you did this?" After all, even if your plan succeeds this time and Your Majesty dies - but whether the Empress Dowager Gu or the Queen Mother loses power, can the Duanrou County Lord's family get well? ”

The most important thing is, "Duanrou's marriage, the clumsy husband has been promised by the queen's mother, if Xiao Su is filial piety, Her Royal Highness Princess Yongfu and Ou Shizi can have an heir, then it will be nullified." So this matter is not without room for change. ”

"It's just your idea, maybe it's your wish, but who knows if it will be like this in the future?" Empress Dowager Ye was puzzled by her, smiled indifferently, and said coldly, "Maybe Princess Yongfu has never forgotten Xiao Su...... At that time, the queen may be disgusted with the eyes again! The most important thing is that Duanrou follows the advice of the mourning family, for so many years, she has been following Princess Yongfu, obeying everything and welcoming each other, and the mourning family does not want anything else, just want them to read Duanrou's well-behaved and sensible, read the grievances of the princess of Qiyang County, and give this child a loyal county horse! The result?! ”

Empress Dowager Ye closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, her eyes were as sharp as a knife!

She growled lowly, like a wounded she-animal, "They still don't take it seriously!!! Yongfu is a treasure of the city that can't be blown by a little wind in the palm of your hand, and the gentleness of the mourning family is also the blood of the serious clan! If it weren't for the slut of the Gu clan who calculated her grandfather with despicable means - even if they didn't talk about these past events, they would have had the face to take Duanrou's lifelong affairs just to prevent Yongfu's possible grievances?! ”

"But if Empress Dowager Gu gains power, I don't think she will necessarily be good to Duanrou them......" Qiu Yulan frowned slightly, "Isn't it?" "Empress Dowager Gu killed the prince's family of the former dynasty, and the king of Qiyang County was able to live because of brain problems, so she became the queen mother - although the county lord of Duanrou is a girl, but because of her proximity to the Jiang family over the years, how could Empress Dowager Gu let her go?

"Of course the mourning family knows that whether it is the slut of the Gu family or Jiang Tianluan's ruthless thing, which side gains power is not a good thing for Duanrou of the mourning family!" Empress Dowager Ye sneered when she heard this, "Why do you think that the purpose of the mourning family's action this time is just to help one of them?" It seems that you saw through the mourning family's method of poisoning the emperor before, and it was indeed just a coincidence! ”

Qiu Yulan was stunned, thought about it for a while, and her face changed slightly: "Which prince did Niangniang contact?!" Or, which clansman?! ”

Since Empress Dowager Ye's purpose is not to deal with Empress Dowager Gu or Empress Jiang, she can only want to deal with both sides at the same time - in fact, if you think about it carefully, at the moment when both sides are not ready for the final decisive battle, if the emperor is really killed, the second queen who is forced to start the war in advance, either side will win a miserable victory!

In this case, it is a good time for the ambitious and bold princes of the royal family to rise - after all, there is still a group of forces in the court that even the second queen does not dare to coerce too much: the neutral party!

The neutral party has no grudge against the Duanrou county lord's family, and the royal family and the Duanrou county lord's family have not had a holiday, even if the grandfather of the Duanrou county lord died unexplained, but time has passed, the county lord is just a woman who can't inherit the heir, as long as it is not a new monarch with brain problems, he will not embarrass this family!

"Sure enough, there is not a single fuel-efficient lamp in the palace!" Qiu Yulan smiled bitterly and thought, "I thought that Empress Dowager Ye was angry...... The co-authors have thought about the back road of the younger generations! ”

To be honest, Qiu Yulan very much agrees with Empress Dowager Ye's thinking: the queen party can not do the lifelong major events of the Duanrou county lord once, and the next time she can take her life inappropriately, the second time...... This kind of completely unreliable backer, you have to change the seat insurance, okay?

If she is the Empress Dowager Ye, she will also try to support the orthodox prince to succeed to the throne and take power in exchange for the promise of the new monarch to protect Duanrou's family!

It's just that Empress Dowager Ye's luck is a little worse: the first emperor didn't die! The second is that her poisoning strategy has been discovered......

"This can't be helped, who told me that I am the wife of the Jiang family now?" Qiu Yulan feels very painful now, from a personal point of view, Empress Dowager Ye's approach is very appetizing to her; But in terms of the overall situation, she must stand on the side of the Jiang family! After all, if Empress Dowager Ye's plan succeeded, the Jiang family would definitely not end well!

Qiu Yulan's heart fluctuated for a moment, and suddenly heard Empress Dowager Ye say with a smile: "Do you think the mourning family will tell you?" ”

"Didn't you say you would say it until you saw me?" As soon as Qiu Yulan heard Empress Dowager Ye's words, she knew that she didn't plan to fulfill her promise, and Empress Dowager Ye really did it—she said indifferently: "It's just casual talk, I just want to know who I lost in...... Originally, the mourning family always thought that even if this plan was unsuccessful, the mourning family would be fine. ”

There was a touch of sadness in his eyes, "It's a pity that Liang Xiaogeng ......"

"Are you deliberately trying to keep this thorn in the Jiang family's heart?" Qiu Yulan pondered for a while and said, "In this way, the Jiang family may not be someone in the royal family, and they can only distrust all possible imperial heirs?" ”

With the Jiang family's style of acting, it is natural that they would rather kill by mistake than let go - but Empress Jiang has no own son, and she can't be the empress, if she wants to take power, it is impossible not to support the Chu family to ascend the throne. So no matter how you kill it, you have to keep a few ...... The problem is that although there are many members of the royal family, they are killing on a large scale just based on the hints of Empress Dowager Ye, how can this be believed by the world?!

All in all, Empress Dowager Ye unabashedly stated her purpose for attacking the emperor, which directly provoked mutual suspicion between the Jiang family and the imperial family - the Jiang family suspected that someone in the royal family intended to rely on Empress Dowager Ye's secret hand to kill their own family and truly reign over the world; The people in the royal family suspected that the Jiang family was plotting wrong, but they were just looking for an excuse to slaughter the members of the Chu family!

Now even if Empress Dowager Ye says which prince she originally planned to support to come to power, no one will believe it.

Because who knows if Empress Dowager Ye deliberately dragged an irrelevant person out in order to cover her real allies?

Empress Dowager Ye looked at her with a smile: "Why do you think that the mourning family still has allies?" It may also be that the mourning family knows that their every move is under surveillance, and it is very difficult to send a letter to Liang Xiaogeng...... I have no intention or ability to form an alliance with any prince or clan! It's just that you want to poison the emperor and provoke a fierce conflict between you and the slut of the Gu family! Whoever you two factions falls, the mourning family is very happy! But here is the truth, you, believe it? ”

Qiu Yulan was silent.

She herself believes it or not, and does not say it, only says that the queen party - she will definitely not believe it!

The reason is very simple, no matter what Empress Dowager Ye said, she was the successor of the first emperor, as Empress Jiang said, when Empress Dowager Gu won the palace fight, she almost wiped out the prince of the previous dynasty, and even the Ye family, her relatives, were wiped out, and the Empress Dowager Ye, the mother of the prince of the previous dynasty, and the actual aunt can still live until now! also planted a chess piece like Liang Xiaogeng next to the emperor! She said she couldn't collude with the prince?! Are you kidding!

Maybe even the clan relatives will be suspected!

"The emperor is not dead, and it is still a situation of the second queen fighting for power." Qiu Yulan frowned, "It's not a good thing to be suspicious of the entire royal family at this time...... Although it is said that the heroine has been in power and the royal family has declined over the years, it can decline again, this banner, the Queen Mother Party and the Queen Party dare not throw it! Didn't the Centrist also stand on the banner of loyalty to the emperor?! ”

Of course, Qiu Yulan is still very confident that the Queen Party will kill the Queen Mother, but she also knows, "Once the Queen Mother Party is tragic and the Queen Party is dominant, then this suspicion is not just suspicion, it can become action!" ”

With the arrogance of the Jiang family when they were still "Jiang Ban Dynasty", Qiu Yulan can imagine what kind of miserable life the royal family members will live when the "Jiang Half Dynasty" becomes the "Jiang Yi Dynasty"!

There is nothing to suspect the crime, and there is no pressure on most of the Jiang family!

They've long been used to being domineering!

And after losing the restraint of the Queen Mother's party, many people may be even more unscrupulous!

Whether it is Qin Guogong or Empress Jiang, these two high-level leaders of the queen party have always been so tolerant of their own people......

The problem is that it's okay to treat one or two royals badly, but it's too much...... Even if the Jiang family does not rebel, it will be considered a thief!

No matter what Empress Dowager Ye's idea was before the emperor was poisoned, at least for now, her purpose of wanting to make the Jiang family unhappy has been achieved......

"Alas! This husband's family ......" Qiu Yulan smiled bitterly, "It doesn't matter if there is a mess in the back house, in the end, it is a small section, and it doesn't hinder the overall situation!" There is a lot of retribution for doing too much evil outside, right? Duanrou County Lord is easy to bully? Qiyang Wang and his wife are easy to bully? Empress Dowager Ye is a bully? The rabbit is in a hurry and bites! What's more, it's someone who used to be the mother of the world?! ”

She looked at the smiling Empress Dowager Ye and felt that there was no need to stay any longer - because she had almost seen through the purpose of Empress Dowager Ye's desire to see her: curiosity and unwillingness.

As for her calculations and plausible purposes, Qiu Yulan believes that Empress Dowager Ye is very willing to let the queen party think of madness, whether she comes or not, she will say.

So to stay, that is, to be led in circles...... This kind of trouble, let's leave it to Queen Jiang and them to worry about!

Qiu Yulan stood up: "I will bring these words to the queen mother, Duanrou is a good child, I have always liked her very much, so if I can, I will try my best to protect her." It's just that I'm just a granddaughter-in-law of the Jiang family, and that's all I can do...... If you don't have anything else to say, I'll go first? ”

"You don't need to scare the mourning family with Duanrou, can the mourning family still trust your Jiang family?" Empress Dowager Ye replied indifferently.

Qiu Yulan didn't care: "Then I'll leave!" ”

She walked to the door without hesitation, and Empress Dowager Ye suddenly said, "Stop!" ”()
