Chapter 39: The first investigation of the suspected case, the father resigns

"It's just a confession to send spring, so there is room for everyone to think about it, and when everyone thinks about it, they will think that it is me who instructed me. What you think about yourself will always be better than listening to others and believing. Second, even if the truth of the matter is revealed in the end, they can easily find a substitute ghost to prevaricate for them. Feng Yanyi said.

"What is the master's plan?" Q Xia asked.

Feng Yanyi said: "Ask Xia, now you go and find out where that Ming Ying and Chun Ying have been on an errand since they entered the palace. In addition, I sent someone to keep an eye on the prison cell, and if anyone lynched Ji Chun without authorization, let me know immediately. ”

"Okay, slave and maid, let's do it." Ask Xia to take orders and go out.

Feng Yanyi sat alone on the hard collapse of the inner hall.

After she received the Holy Grace, they could no longer sit still. Who would have thought of such a ploy to kill two birds with one stone? not only made Concubine Shu lose the imperial heir, but also blamed her for the whole thing.

Feng Yanyi knew one thing, that is, her real palace life had only begun now.

……

As the days passed, Feng Yanyi was looking for clues little by little.

Chunying is a native of East Sunan County, and after entering the palace, she worked as an errand in Concubine Qi and the Imperial Garden, and then went to Concubine Shu's Lichun Palace as a palace maid. And Mingying is also a native of East Sunan County, after entering the palace, she worked as an errand with Su Meiren in the Imperial Garden, and later came to Feng Yanyi's Luanyi Palace on an errand day. Chunying entered the palace earlier than Mingying, because the two of them were from the same county, and Chunying was old and entered the palace early, so when the two of them were on an errand in the imperial garden, Chunying took care of Mingying very much, and the two of them were like sisters.

"Chunying used to be an errand boy at Concubine Qi?" Feng Yanyi turned her head and asked. Chunying had been on an errand in Concubine Qi's palace, which she had never expected.

"Yes, master. Chunying has been on an errand for Concubine Qi for more than half a year. Q Xia replied.

"Why did you go to the Imperial Garden again?" Feng Yanyi was beautiful and frowned.

Q Xia replied: "It is said that it is because Chunying accidentally broke the bracelet that Concubine Qi likes very much." ”

Chunying broke Concubine Qi's bracelet, and Concubine Qi drove her to the imperial garden on an errand, although it was a bit excessive, but it was understandable.

"How long has Chunying been on an errand in Lichun Palace?"

"More than a month."

"More than a month?" Feng Yanyi was slightly surprised. Only a month later, Concubine Shu and her palace maid Chu Cui killed people. It's really vicious. Shu Concubine kept saying that she just thought Chunying was stupid and asked Chu Cui to teach her well, but Chu Cui was too ruthless and persecuted Chun Ying to death.

Even though Concubine Shu has pushed all the things on Chu Cui, which of you in the harem doesn't know the truth of the matter? It's just that Concubine Shu just had a miscarriage, and Hongye looks at the emperor's affection, so he won't pursue it too much for the time being.

"Mingying was in the Sumei Palace before?" Feng Yanyi asked.

"Yes, Ming Ying has been on an errand in the Sumei Palace since she was on an errand in the Imperial Garden, and she only came to Luanyi Palace not long ago." Ask Xia said.

"I remember that Su Meiren has been getting very close to Concubine Qi in recent days." Feng Yanyi recalled.

Asked Xia Yingdao: "Master, Su Meiren was originally a maid beside Concubine Qi, and she was named a beauty by the emperor because she played the guzheng well." ”

Feng Yanyi smiled lightly after hearing this: "Concubine Qi is also generous. ”

Su Meiren is the maid of Concubine Qi, but because of her superb piano skills, she is favored by Hongye, and she can be regarded as flying on the branch to be a phoenix. Although Concubine Qi was unwilling, how dare she refuse the person Hongye fancies. Besides, Su Meiren is the one who went out of her Tangli Palace, and Concubine Qi can still control her. Rather than those who don't listen to her share favors with her, it is better for her people to share favors with her. Concubine Qi herself can figure this out.

For several days, no clear clues appeared. But Feng Yanyi privately believes that this matter is inseparable from Concubine Qi and Su Meiren. Regardless of whether Ming Ying's errand in her Luanyi Palace was a normal assignment or a deliberate arrangement, I have to say that Su Meiren's point is questionable and worrying.

Before there was a clear clue and direction for this matter, another thing came unexpectedly.

Feng Yanyi's father, Feng Yuanxiu, the king of Yan, wrote a letter wishing to beg for bones (1). Although Feng Yuanxiu is over half a hundred years old, it is a little early for him to return home, and there are many officials in the court who are older than him. Not long ago, Hongye rejected Feng Yuanxiu's request to go to the border, and less than half a month later, Feng Yuanxiu wrote a letter asking to return home. The Feng family is from Huainan County, and most of the family lives in Huainan County, and Feng Yuanxiu wants to return to Huainan County.

Feng Yanyi knew about it, and it was Hongye who told her.

In the Qianming Palace, candles have been lit. Hongye is still reviewing the chapters and handling court affairs.

Feng Yanyi sat on the purple wood wide chair under Hongye's table and was silent.

"Concubine Jing, what do you mean by King Yan? Acting against me? Hongye said angrily.

Feng Yanyi said softly: "Your Majesty, this is a court matter. Don't talk to your concubines anymore. "She is now considered a guilty person in the eyes of everyone, how dare she break the law and interfere in the government again? And her father is also an old minister in the court, whether the scheming is appropriate or not, she should know better than her, she can no longer be as impulsive as before.

Hongye heard the delicate and elegant woman in the seat say this, and sneered: "I haven't seen you for a few days, Jing Concubine has become cautious, and it is so taboo to speak with me." ”

Feng Yanyi only smiled and said nothing. She and him have reached this point, how can she not be careful, as far as possible not to make a mistake.

"I told you that I am not afraid that you know, you don't have to scruples." Hongye said, "I won't treat your sins again." ”

Feng Yanyi hesitated slightly, but finally spoke: "Your Majesty, you don't have to be angry with my father. He begs you to take back your gift to him, no longer King Yan, but to return to Huainan County as a commoner, which will be a good thing for you and him, not a bad thing. ”

"Oh?" Hongye said with a look on his face.

Feng Yanyi said with a smile: "Actually, the emperor himself knows the reason in his heart. After Feng Yanyi finished speaking, she looked at the person in a bright yellow robe.

Hongye, how could he not be transparent. King Yan resigned from the name of the prince, and his power was also withdrawn. Hongye was already worried about the excessive power in the hands of the princes, and King Yan was still a military general with high prestige, so this concern could just be eliminated. It's just that King Yan did this, on the surface, it seemed to show his dissatisfaction to Hongye, but in fact, Hongye and Feng Yanyi both understood in their hearts that Feng Yuanxiu really wanted to sue the old man and return home, he had been an official in the court for half his life, and he also occupied a position above 10,000 people under one person, which was enough. If he doesn't retreat at this time, then his fate may go to two extremes, either to the extreme of glory or to disrepute.

Hongye chuckled lightly, and looked at Feng Yanyi's eyes with approval.
