Chapter 297: The Skill of the Ghost Valley
Li Shimin and Guanyin were not lost in the garden of the night after all, and under the guidance of the light in the distance, the two returned to Qinglu not long after.
On the morning of the second day, after breakfast, Li Shimin went to Taiji Palace to see Li Yuan and pleaded for Wei Chi Jingde; Guanyin went to Taiji Palace to see Wan Guifei and Yuwen Lingxin.
------
Because she was going to Ouchi, Guanyin took a Mo Zhai car without a guard of honor.
Out of the Hongyi Palace, to the east to the Xuanwu Gate.
Xuanwu Gate is the north gate of Chang'an City and the north gate of Taiji Palace.
------
To the north of Xuanwu Gate is the Imperial Garden, which was called the North Garden in the early Tang Dynasty.
To the west of the Imperial Garden is Hongyi Palace.
The entire north side of Chang'an City is the Imperial Forbidden Garden, which is not allowed to be entered by outsiders without permission.
Hongyi Palace and Imperial Garden were built in the Imperial Forbidden Garden.
During the Wude period of the early Tang Dynasty, in the royal forbidden garden outside the north of Chang'an, there were only two buildings, Hongyi Palace and Imperial Garden.
------
Xuanwu Gate is ten zhang long from east to west, five zhang wide from north to south, there is only one doorway in the middle, and there is a gatehouse built on it. The city wall is two zhang high and about two zhang wide.
Guanyin maid took the Mo Zhai car to the Xuanwu Gate, first by the door guard to check the fish charm, and then let the carriage of the Guanyin maid enter the Xuanwu Gate.
------
The Xuanwu Gate is different from other city gates in Chang'an, because entering the Xuanwu Gate is entering the palace, so there is an inner heavy gate on the south side of the Xuanwu Gate.
The inner heavy gate is facing the Xuanwu Gate, and the middle moment is about six zhang away from the south.
There are three gatehouses in the inner heavy gatehouse, out of the inner heavy door to the inside is the Taiji Palace, there are eunuchs in the gatehouse to make the envoy on duty, and the people who enter and exit the Taiji Palace are inspected and registered.
------
In the middle of the inner heavy gate and the Xuanwu gate, it forms a courtyard, which is about six zhang wide from north to south, and about 16 zhang wide from east to west.
On the four sides of the courtyard, there are houses built against the city wall and the courtyard wall, which is the place where the city gate guards live, and there are heavy garrisons.
According to the regulations, the guards stationed at the Xuanwu Gate are not allowed to enter the Inner Heavy Gate.
------
Guanyin maid took the car into the inner gate, to the south through the east of the Chengxiang Palace, and then to the south through the west of the Yanjia Palace, and then turn right to the west, pass in front of the Caisi Temple, drive across the covered bridge on the Qingming Canal, and come to the front of the Shujing Palace.
Guanyin's plan was to see Yuwen Lingxin first, and then go to see Wan Guifei.
------
Guanyin and Yuwen Lingxin discussed with Yuwen Lingxin in Shujing Hall for an hour, and then went to Qianqiu Hall to see Wan Guifei.
When Wan Guifei saw Guanyin's arrival, her face showed love, like seeing her own daughter, and before Guanyin could sit down, she pushed the food box on the table to Guanyin's maid and let her taste the dim sum she made herself.
Guanyin picked up the chopsticks and tasted two pieces of dim sum, praising Wan Guifei's craftsmanship while disgusting herself for not being good at cooking.
------
After tasting the dim sum made by Wan Guifei, Guanyin looked at Wan Guifei, glanced at her, and then looked at the palace maid who was serving on the side.
Concubine Wan Guifei understood and explained to the palace maid who served, "You guys go outside and get busy, I have a few words to say to the princess."
When the palace maid went out, Concubine Wan asked Guanyin, "Auntie came over this time, do you have something to discuss with your aunt?" My aunt felt that during this period of time, there was something strange in the calm in the palace, as if something was abnormal."
------
Guanyin turned around and looked at the door of the palace, leaned forward, and whispered to Wan Guifei, "Now the crown prince and the king of Qi are stepping up their plans to get rid of the deceased brothers."
Wan Guifei was not surprised to hear Guanyin say this, she asked Guanyin softly, "The crown prince and the king of Qi have a new movement."
Guanyin replied, "The crown prince and the king of Qi are stepping up to frame the people of the Qin Palace, a few days ago, General Wei Chi was imprisoned, General Cheng Zhijie was released, and Mr. Fang and Mr. Du were expelled from the Qin Palace, all because the prince and the king of Qi said bad things about them in front of the grandfather."
------
Wan Guifei said suspiciously, "Auntie sees that the lord is very disciplined in what she says and does, why is she so unreasonable when she treats Erlang?"
"When my aunt saw him a few days ago, the lord also explained that my aunt should walk around with you more, it seems that he loves you very much, why did he change when he saw Erlang?"
------
Guanyin sighed, "Grandpa doesn't know what Grandpa really thinks in his heart, maybe he was confused by the prince and King Qi, or maybe Grandpa did it on purpose."
When it comes to Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, Wan Guifei has some hatred, before Jinyang raised the army, it was the two of them who threw Wan Guifei's biological son Li Zhiyun alone in Hedong, which eventually led to Li Zhiyun being arrested and killed by the government.
------
Now, when Concubine Wan heard that the two of them were planning to get rid of Li Shimin, she said hatefully, "The prince is benevolent and filial on the surface, but in fact he is pretending to be a good person. When he went to Jinyang from Hedong back then, there were hundreds of people with him, why did he leave Goro alone? Could it be that one more Gorou will drag them down?"
"In addition, there is another thing, a few days ago, my aunt heard Qin Lan say that the prince and the king of Qi had abnormal dealings with Concubine Yin De and Zhang Jieyu. My aunt paid attention to it, and there was indeed some confusion between them."
------
Guanyin heard that Wan Guifei took the initiative to mention Concubine Yin De and Zhang Jieyu, so she followed the topic of Wan Guifei and said, "Ah Wan came to see her aunt today, just for the two of her."
"Qinghong in the East Palace and Qiu Jian in the Qi Palace, both are old men in Hedong Manor, and they have a good relationship with Ah Wan. Recently, Ah Wan heard from them that the prince and the king of Qi had an affair with Concubine Yin De and Zhang Jieyu."
"My aunt is in charge of the women's morality and palace rules in the palace, if this kind of thing really happens, my aunt doesn't care, and it's not easy to explain it to grandpa. It's better for my aunt to ask, so that my aunt won't be caught off guard when my grandpa asks in the future."
------
Wan Guifei's face was sad, she sighed "hey" and told Guanyin about her difficulties.
"My aunt also wanted to find out about this matter, but she couldn't do anything and couldn't find conclusive evidence. And even if you find out, what can you do? How can I tell your grandfather what can he do to his son?"
"If the Lord doesn't deal with the crown prince and the king of Qi, the two of them will be jealous of me, and in the future, where will your three sisters live?"
------
What Wan Guifei said is also the truth, as the biological mother of the three princesses, she must think about the future of her three daughters, which is also human nature.
Guanyin saw that Wan Guifei was embarrassed, and she now had to find a way to dispel the concerns in Wan Guifei's heart.
She said to Wan Guifei with deep understanding, "Auntie also knows Auntie's difficulties, there are a few words Auntie wants to say to Auntie, Auntie listens to see if it is reasonable."
------
Guanyin first started with Li Jiancheng killing Li Zhiyun, "The prince and the king of Qi first harmed the fifth uncle, and now they want to harm the world's brother, it is really punishable, the aunt always doesn't want to see their villains succeed, right?"
When Li Zhiyun was mentioned, Wan Guifei's eyes were filled with tears, she had hatred in her heart, but she was silent.
Guanyin continued, "My aunt and my grandfather have been in love for decades, and my grandfather has not forgotten the deep affection with my aunt, and as soon as I became the emperor, I canonized my aunt as a concubine, and entrusted the care of the harem to my aunt.
------
Guanyin is very reasonable, and it touches the emotion in Wan Guifei's heart, Li Zhiyun and Li Yuan are the two people she is most concerned about in her life.
And now one was killed by Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, and the other was tarnished by the two of them.
How could she be indifferent?
Wan Guifei has been moved by Guanyin's words, she is still worried about the future of her three daughters, and seeks a way to solve it from Guanyin, "Can there be a way for Guanyin to not be affected by the three sisters?"
------
Guanyin saw that Wan Guifei was moved, and took advantage of the situation to encourage her, "Grandpa is the lord of Shengming, he has experienced countless hardships and dangers in his life, and he knows the severity of things, how can he tell others what you said?"
"If Grandpa punishes the crown prince and the king of Qi, my aunt won't have to worry about it anymore."
"If you don't punish the prince and the king of Qi, it will be Grandpa who thinks of the relationship between father and son. How can you not think of the love with your aunt and the father-daughter relationship with your three sisters? How could he put his aunt and three sisters in danger?"
------
Guanyin is worthy of being familiar with "Guiguzi", is a connoisseur of persuasion, can not only move people's hearts, but also can not leak, even if it is a stone, she can be said to bloom, not to mention that the opposite is a sentient and righteous person?
After some persuasion, Wan Guifei finally mustered up the courage, and she asked Guanyin, "Tell me what my aunt should do?"
------
Guanyin was very happy to see that Wan Guifei finally agreed to persuade Li Yuan, and she gave Wan Guifei an idea with a smile on her face, "Auntie can quietly call Qinghong from the East Palace and Qiu Jian from the Qi Palace, and ask about the situation. The situation that my aunt asks about herself is much more credible than what others report to you, and I will know the specific details, so there will be no omissions when I tell my grandfather."
"If you feel that what the two of them say is not credible, your aunt can also ask the inner chamberlain Wang He to verify it. The two sides are contrasted, and if they fit, then the thing is true. If it doesn't fit, my aunt can ask other credible people until there is no more doubt in her heart."
------
Wan Guifei nodded while listening, "That's how it should be, this kind of major matter related to the society of the country, there is no sloppiness in the slightest, and I don't know how many people are involved in life and death, it is necessary to verify it in many ways, and to ensure the safety of the person who speaks."
Guanyin praised Wan Guifei, "My aunt is kind-hearted, and she always thinks about the safety of others. There is another thing, the maid wants to beg her aunt."
Concubine Wan smiled and complained, "What are you and your aunt polite? If you have anything to say, just tell your aunt."
------
Guanyin said sincerely, "In this world, Aunt Shu knows Grandpa's temper best, and Grandpa wants to beg Auntie to persuade Grandpa not to deal with some things in a hurry, so as not to make trouble in the city, which is known to everyone, which may damage the majesty of the royal family and Grandpa's face."
"It's best to slow down, calm down and think of a foolproof plan, not only to deal with the prince and the king of Qi, but also to cover up the ugly things between the prince and the king of Qi and Concubine Yin Defei and Zhang Jieyu."
Concubine Wan said confidently, "This is easy to say, my aunt knows that the Lord is a person, and the most admirable thing about him is that his belly exceeds that of ordinary people, and he can endure no matter how big it is, and he will not act rashly unless it is absolutely necessary."
------
Next, Guanyin and Wan Guifei discussed all the details, and Wan Guifei promised Guanyin that she would go to see Li Yuan after two days to figure things out.
At noon, Wan Guifei stayed with Guanyin and had lunch together, and in the afternoon, Guanyin returned to Hongyi Palace.
