Jian Polang's words rushed out of his mouth, which made Jian Wenying feel very surprised.

Jian Wenying stared at him for a long time and said, "Who did you listen to?" ”

Jian Polang said a little proudly: "I listened to what my mother said, and my mother told me about their past. She said that Miss Tang's mother was called Tang Yuncao, and that Aunt Tang originally liked Uncle Fang Liu, but unfortunately Uncle Fang Xiao liked Aunt Princess, so later the mother of the shocked girl was disheartened, and later gave birth to the shocked girl. Uncle Fang Yu has always been haunted by this matter, so he is very good to the frightened girl. And Aunt Princess herself feels sorry for the mother of the girl, so she also loves the girl, am I wrong? ”

Jian Wenying raised her hand, slapped him on the head heavily, and said, "You're not wrong. It's just that when you go to Huaiming Garden, don't talk nonsense, I really don't know what your mother thinks, these things will tell you. ”

Jian Polang responded happily and said to him, "Daddy, don't worry." When I went to Huaiming Garden, I only thought I was a mute, and I didn't say a word. ”

Jian Wenying nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll let you go." ”

Jian Polang added another sentence and said, "It's just that don't blame me for what happened to them in the future, I didn't say a word when I went today." If any of them are burned to death by fire in the future, I have nothing to do with it. ”

As soon as Jian Wenying heard Jian Polang's words, she couldn't help but pat his head again.

Jian Polang touched his head that was a little painful and said, "Daddy, people are just joking, why do you bother to take it to heart." ”

So, the father and son left the capital and went all the way to Huaiming Garden.

They didn't expect that every word of their words would be heard by Gu Lengyi, and Gu Lengyi finally understood why Jian Huaizhen was so kind to Tang.

After he got the news, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and said secretly: It's okay now, I finally helped Wan Guiren find out the truth of the matter. When I go back, I hope she doesn't threaten me with the same thing I did for her last time.

Thinking so, he felt that it was not too early, so he hurried back to the palace.

After returning to the palace, he didn't go anywhere, and went to see Wan Zhen'er.

Wan Zhen'er heard that Gu Lengyi was back, and hurriedly asked Mama Chen to summon him in.

Gu Leng agreed, Wan Zhen'er knelt down first, kowtowed respectfully and asked her to say goodbye.

Wan Zhen'er waved her hand and said, "Get up, Father-in-law Gu is not an outsider." Hurry up and tell Motogu what the news is. ”

"Yes."

Gu Leng got up and said: "The slave went out to inquire for a day, and finally found out the truth of the matter for the mother. ”

"Oh? What the hell is going on, you can tell me about it. ”

"That Tang was shocked that Tang girl's life experience is really a bit tortuous, she was born to a woman named Tang Yuncao. That woman was originally Fang Liao's old love, but because Fang Yu liked the eldest princess, she left away, and later she gave birth to Tang Shocking Tang Girl. Fang Xiao and the eldest princess were very kind to Tang because they felt guilty about Tang Jingran. ”

"Oh, I see. No wonder others say that Tang Jingran is the daughter of the princess's rival, and now the slave finally understands what is going on. Mama Chen interjected on the side.

Wan Zhen'er waved her hand to tell her not to talk too much, and motioned for Gu Leng to continue.

Gu Lengyi continued: "There is one more thing, and that is Miss Tang's current whereabouts. Today, I heard with my own ears that the people in Shangshu's Mansion said that Tang was shocked and turned out to be dead. ”

"What? He's dead. ”

Wan Zhen'er didn't expect it, her face turned pale in shock, and she jumped up and asked, "You say it again." ”

Gu Lengyi repeated it again, he really didn't understand why Wan Zhen'er reacted so much to Tang Jingran's death, could it be that Wan Zhen'er had anything to do with Tang Jingran, he didn't dare to ask.

Wan Zhen'er continued to ask, "Is this news you got true?" When did Don Shocking die? How did he die? ”

"Qiyu noble Niangniang, according to the minions' inquiry, I heard that the Tang Dynasty has been dead for more than ten days, and was burned to death in the black forest twenty miles west of the capital, and their corpses are still in Huaiming Garden. If the mother doesn't believe it, she can send someone to inquire again, and every word the slave says is the truth, and there is no lie. ”

"Oh? So who are you listening to? ”

Wan Zhen'er still didn't believe it, Na Gu Lengyi kept saying that she should send someone to Huaiming Yuan to inquire, where did she Wan Zhen'er have such a great ability to place people in Huaiming Garden, so no matter what, she had to confirm the correctness of this news with Gu Lengyi.

Gu Lengyi said slowly: "I inquired about it for a day today and didn't hear any news, and when I felt that I didn't know how to come back and report to Niangniang in the evening, I happened to pass by the former Shangshu Mansion, which was originally where the eldest princess lived. As soon as I got to the door, two men walked out. The two men, one older and the other in his twenties, looked very much like father and son. ”

When Wan Zhen'er heard him say this, she immediately nodded and said, "I know who these two people you are talking about, one of them is Jian Wenying, the invincible general back then, and the other is naturally his son." ”

"That's what happened."

Gu Leng Yi said: "I followed them quietly, and I heard them say that they were going to Huaiming Yuan, and they also told them about the death of Tang Jingran." I took it to heart, and when I came back, I told my mother. ”

Wan Zhen'er heard Gu Leng Yi say this, and she believed him.

She thought to herself that it was no wonder that the emperor was so sad, so desperate, and so depressed, it turned out that it was because of this Tang shock.

The more Wan Zhen'er thought about it, the happier she became, so she said to Gu Lengyi: "I have worked hard for Father-in-law Gu today. Mama Chen, you will help Gu Gonggong to pay two hundred taels of silver and send him to his residence. There are still a lot of places to trouble you in the future, so please help this palace. ”

Where did Gu Lengyi dare to say "no", he immediately agreed, and when he heard that there were two hundred taels of silver to collect, his face suddenly bloomed like a flower, not to mention how happy he was.

After sending away Gu Lengyi, Wan Zhen'er slowly spoke: "I finally know why the emperor has become so depressed and desperate recently, it turns out that it is Tang Jingran's death. Presumably, the eldest princess went to the Qianqing Palace to have a secret conversation with the emperor that day, and what she told him was that Tang Jingran was dead. ”

"Is the news that Tang Jingran is dead?" Mama Chen asked.

Wan Zhen'er nodded and said, "Of course it's credible." Since it came from the mouths of Jian Wenying and his son, it must be wrong. And the emperor only has a soft spot for this Tang Jingran, and only Tang Jingran's death can defeat him to this point. At that time, Empress Wu died, and the emperor was not sad to be like this. ”

Seeing this, Mama Chen immediately knelt down, kowtowed respectfully to Wan Zhen'er, and said, "Congratulations to the slave." ”

Wan Zhen'er was very stunned and glanced at Mama Chen, and said, "Mama Chen, you get up first, how can this palace be happy?" ”

Mama Chen said unhurriedly beside her: "The emperor actually likes this Tang Jingran, now that Tang Jingran is dead, and Queen Wu is also dead, there are only ten thousand nobles left in the harem, you and Wang Guifei." Although the princess is a concubine, she is very quiet, and she doesn't even dare to come out of the palace gate on weekdays, how dare she go against you, and this harem will be your world from now on. ”

When Wan Zhen'er heard Mama Chen say this, a smile suddenly bloomed on her face, and she said, "You are not bad. But this palace is just a small nobleman so far, and he has never been favored by the Lord of Long Live Lord, so what's the point of dominating this harem. Everyone in the harem knows that whoever can get the emperor's favor is the one who can really be powerful in this harem. Now this palace is just a false name, what's the use. ”

Mama Chen thought for a long time, and then said to Wan Zhen'er: "Niangniang, since this is the case, we might as well think of a way to let Wan Sui Ye favor you." ”

"Humph!"

Wan Zhen'er glanced at Mama Chen with some sneers and some disdain, and she said, "Mama Chen, I think you are old and confused, you can say such stupid things, don't you think what you just said is very funny?" If the emperor pampered the palace so easily, would the palace use so much effort and strength? ”

"That's not what I say, sis. In the past, it was just because there was no good time, but now the slave maid has an idea, I don't know if the mother is willing to use it? Mama Chen said sadly.

Seeing this, Mama Chen said, "Since Niangniang said so, then I have nothing to say." Now that Niangniang knows that the emperor likes Tang Jingran, but Tang Jingran is dead, the emperor is sad for Tang Jingran's death. If Niangniang pretends to be Tang shocked at this moment to attract the emperor, maybe she can attract the emperor's admiration? ”

Wan Zhen'er glanced at Mama Chen in disbelief, she thought to herself: "This Mama Chen is really an old fox, an old treacherous and slippery, thinking about things really more and more deeply than ordinary people, and tricks are repeated. If such a person cannot be used for his own purposes by his side, he must be punished with a good excuse one day. If you don't send such a person away, stay by your side and don't use it for yourself, you will always be your strongest opponent. Fortunately, Mama Chen is still willing to listen to her own words and give advice for herself. ”

Wan Zhen'er thought about these careful thoughts in her heart, where did Mama Chen know, and after Mama Chen finished speaking, she waited for her reaction.

Wan Zhen'er felt that this idea could be tried, but she felt a little risky, so she said: "Mama Chen, this idea you said is also good in this palace. But don't you think it's a risky idea? Now the emperor is sad because of the death of Tang Jingran, and the palace is going to pretend to be Tang Jingran at this time, if the tiger is not an anti-dog, then the emperor will not say that he is lucky to the palace, but he will not even look at the palace. Won't this palace lose its wife and soldiers when the time comes?

"Mother, that's not what I said. As long as we have an idea, there must be a way. This matter is wrapped up in the slave maid, and the mother just has to follow the slave's idea to do it when the time comes. ”

That Mama Chen said gloomily, her voice was very cold, as if she came from that ancient hell.

When Wan Zhen'er heard her such a cold voice, she couldn't help but feel trembling all over, and she shivered.

Despite this, she knew that there was no other way but to listen to Mama Chen's mercy.

After all, she couldn't think of any good ideas to win the emperor's favor, she is now thirty-six years old, her face is withered, and she will soon be no longer young. If she can't attract the emperor's attention at this time, then she won't have a good time in the palace in the future.

Thinking of this, she raised her hand and said to Mama Chen, "Okay." Since this is the case, everything is up to Mama Chen's arrangement. It's just that this palace has now entrusted its net worth and life to you, Mama Chen, you must not let this palace down. Only when the palace is developed in this harem, you can enjoy endless glory and wealth. If there are three long and two short things in this palace, then what awaits you Mama Chen will definitely not end well. ”

When Wan Zhen'er said the last sentence, it was quite a warning.

Although she knew that this Mama Chen was scheming, who knew if she would use other means in the middle, and she herself was not sure if this idea would work.

When she said this to Mama Chen, she just wanted to increase Mama Chen's intentions.

After hearing this, Mama Chen sneered and said, "Don't worry, Niangniang." Since the slave maid made a military order in front of Niangniang, this matter will definitely be done for Niangniang. Niangniang just wait to see the consequences, she will definitely not disappoint Niangniang. ”

Wan Zhen'er and Mama Chen were discussing how to think of a conspiracy to deceive the emperor's concern, and the emperor was worried and sad day and night in the Qianqing Palace, haunted by nightmares.

Every time he fell asleep, the shadow of Tang Jingran would appear in front of him, Tang Jingran was so beautiful, just like a hibiscus out of the water, every move, smile and cheek were all intoxicating. Especially when she saved herself under the city wall that day, she was like a Lingbo fairy, not as beautiful as a mortal.

Such a woman asked him to find it somewhere in the future, and she died so easily now, how could Zhu Jianshen accept this fact.

Zhu Jianshen is only eighteen years old now, belonging to the age of the beginning of love, his favorite person is Tang Jingran, he has been thinking about it for more than a year, but he didn't expect to end up with this kind of ending.

The reason why he married Empress Wu at the beginning, and later followed Jian Huaizhen in everything, was just that he hoped that one day he could obtain Jian Huaizhen's consent to marry this Tang Jingran into the palace.

By now all his dreams had been shattered, and he felt that he could no longer find a purpose in life. is to be the emperor, what's so great about being the emperor, can you be with your beloved when you are the emperor?

Zhu Jianshen said to himself coldly while thinking: "What my emperor has done is really bad, he can't even keep his beloved, and he is not even as good as a common person." If that's the case, I might as well be a common man, be with my most beloved, you plough the fields and come to me to weave cloth, and live those ordinary peasant lives, which is better than being this high-minded, deserted Ninety-Five. ”

The more Zhu Jianshen thought about it, the more he felt that he didn't even have a trustworthy person around him, someone who could speak from his heart.

The more he thought about it, the more complicated it became, the more sad he became, and in the end, he was directly immersed in sadness and couldn't get out.

At this time, Lin Jian'an walked in with pacing.

When Lin Jian'an saw the emperor, he saluted Zhu Jianshen and said, "Your Majesty, you have been in this Qianqing Palace for so long, do you want to stay forever?" Don't you want to go out and check it out? If you stay like this, your body will definitely not be able to bear it. ”

Zhu Jian glanced at Lin Jian'an coldly, his eyes were like a sharp blade, and he said, "Gonggong Lin, what's the use of you running to tell me this?" If you persuade me to go out, I will go out, why should I listen to you? Do you think you are Sun Xiangyong next to the emperor? ”

Seeing Shen's words of reproach, Lin Jian'an was cold for a while, and shivered again.

Yes, he has always been the great eunuch by the emperor's side.

The goal is to become a person like Sun Xiang next to the former emperor Zhu Qizhen. He knew that Zhu Qizhen used Sun Xiang very heavily when he was alive, and he would ask his opinion on everything.

Although the ancestral training of the Ming Dynasty included the posthumous instruction that harems and eunuchs were not allowed to interfere in politics, Zhu Qizhen still believed in Sun Xiangyong very much.

Although Sun Xiangyong ended up with a very miserable end, he was undoubtedly the first eunuch by Zhu Qizhen's side.

Lin Jian'an has always dreamed of becoming the most trusted eunuch around Zhu Jianshen, but Zhu Jianshen has never trusted him much, and he still scolds Leng Yan at every turn, which makes him feel very depressed.

After Lin Jian'an was scolded by Zhu Jianshen, he walked out of the palace in a huff.

He was guarding the gate of the palace, and at this time, Mama Chen walked over as a casual look.

She walked up to Lin Jian'an and said with a smile: "Grandpa Lin hasn't seen you for a few days, are you okay?" ”

Lin Gongcheng was angry, glanced at Mama Chen, and said, "Thanks to Mama Chen, I have always been very good." ”

He felt that Mama Chen's words inevitably meant to make fun of herself, and she had just been reprimanded by the emperor, so Mama Chen immediately said these words, and it was inevitable that she would feel gloating.

Seeing this, Mama Chen had already expected that Lin Jian'an was most likely angry with the emperor, so she showed herself face.

She hurriedly smiled and said, "I don't mean anything else when I say this, and I ask Gonggong Lin not to take it to heart." Gonggong Lin has worked hard and has worked hard, and he has served the emperor for so many years without merit and hard work! ”

When Lin Jian'an heard Mama Chen say this, he immediately nodded and said, "It's not." Our family has been serving the emperor for seven or eight years, and our family has been by his side since the emperor was still the crown prince, but it's a pity—"

He said this, realizing that he had spoken out, and hurriedly stopped.

Mama Chen didn't expose him either, and said with a smile: "Grandpa Lin, the emperor naturally trusts Grandpa Lin very much. Now there is one thing I want to ask Grandpa Lin for help, I don't know what Grandpa Lin wants? ”

Lin Jian'an glanced at Mama Chen with some confusion.

Seeing that he didn't refuse very violently, Mama Chen pulled his sleeve to the side.

After looking around, he said, "Father-in-law Lin, our family came to see you today because of our mother's entrustment. You also know that there are two concubines in this harem now, one is our noble lady, and the other is Wang Guifei. Although Wang Guifei is a noble concubine, and my mother is just a nobleman, there is no doubt who is favored. ”

Lin Jian'an didn't understand what Mama Chen meant by saying this to him, he lowered his head and thought about it carefully, and felt that Wan Zhen'er seemed to be more powerful in the harem now.

Although Wang Guifei is the honor of a noble concubine, she has never been very favored by the emperor, the queen mother of the two palaces, and the eldest princess.

Now it seems that although Wan Zhen'er is not favored by the emperor, she is deeply liked by the Empress Dowager Zhou, and she is also the person who came out of the Empress Dowager Zhou's side. If one carelessly offends her, the consequences must be terrible.

He still remembered that Empress Wu was because she offended Wan Zhen'er, and finally ended up hanging herself.

It can be seen that the people trained by the Empress Dowager Zhou are not bad.

Thinking of this, Lin Jian'an's face couldn't help but be a little respectful.
