Chapter 202: Men Are Hypocritical
"A few days ago, the royal family went hunting, and Li'er went hunting with the emperor, but when she came back, she was seriously injured." Concubine Zhao said in a deep voice, "With so many generals in the army following, how could it be possible for Li'er to have an accident?"
Hearing this, several people's faces changed.
These family heads present are all human spirits, and as soon as they heard it, they knew that Concubine Zhao was hinting at the emperor!
It's quite right to say, Wei Li has been away from Shangjing for many years, and most people have even seen him, so it is naturally impossible to calculate him if he has no grievances or hatreds.
Only the emperor Wei Qing of the dynasty had some competition with Wei Li.
After all, logically speaking, Wei Li is also one of the crown princes, but the first emperor left suddenly, and there were no other princes of the Wei family in the palace, so Wei Qing could succeed to the throne logically.
Now that Wei Li's return is naturally a potential threat to Wei Qing.
Thinking of this, everyone's expressions were strange, but they didn't dare to speak, for fear of being involved.
The head of the Wu family had a gloomy face and asked in a low voice, "Is this just your guess, or is it true?"
"Just my guess." Concubine Zhao didn't dare to lie, after all, she couldn't come up with evidence.
"Then you can't say that!" The head of the Wu family glared, "Slandering the emperor, this is a big crime to connect the nine clans, do you want so many of us to go into the ground together?"
Several family heads next to him retreated to the side, and they all cleared up their relationship and said, "We didn't hear anything just now!"
Concubine Zhao frowned, very dissatisfied in her heart.
The head of the Wu family lowered his voice and said bitterly, "Daughter, even if the emperor calculates the etiquette, you can't say it. If it is too dangerous for Li'er to stay in the palace, you can send him back to the Wu family, after all, he is also a member of my Wu family!"
Hearing this, Concubine Zhao seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Since my father said so, then I'm relieved."
"What do you mean?" The head of the Wu family was puzzled.
Concubine Zhao didn't answer, but said aloud: "I called you over today, I just want to say hello first, if I really get the evidence, please be able to distinguish between right and wrong."
Hearing this, several people were silent.
Even if Concubine Zhao gets the evidence, it is impossible for them to turn against the emperor!
Concubine Zhao greeted her like this, she was inevitably talking about a dream.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, Concubine Zhao didn't care, so she flicked her sleeves and left.
The young eunuch followed behind and whispered, "Niangniang, these are human spirits, and it is still too difficult to deceive them."
"It's okay, I didn't think I could fool them, I just wanted my father's attitude." Concubine Zhao smiled, "Now it's only the most crucial move."
"What's the most important move?"
"It's about the Emperor, I'm going to see what secrets he is hiding tonight." Concubine Zhao sneered.
After coming back for so many days, she had already discovered that something was not quite right with Wei Qing, and she seemed to be hiding some secrets. So, she's going to find out tonight.
……
That night, Changchun Palace.
Concubine Jin sat alone in front of the mirror to put on makeup as usual, carefully examining her delicate face, and sighed resentfully.
"No matter how good the painting is, no one wants to look at it after all."
"Why did my sister say that?" Suddenly, a voice came from outside.
Concubine Jin turned her head to look and saw Concubine Zhao walking into the Changchun Palace unhurriedly.
Concubine Zhao is the name of the queen mother in the palace, and she is more than one generation higher than Concubine Jin. So Concubine Jin immediately stood up, knelt on the ground and saluted, "Knock on the Queen Mother."
"Eh, they all call this palace old." Concubine Zhao shook her head and helped Concubine Jin up with a smile, "If you don't dislike it, just call this palace a sister."
"How's that going to work?" Concubine Jin lowered her head.
"Why not? I'm just a vain name." Concubine Zhao looked harmless to humans and animals, and her attitude towards Concubine Jin was very kind.
The two sat aside, and Concubine Zhao sighed again: "Good sister, I heard that Your Majesty has never touched you since he ascended the throne?"
"Empress Dowager
Yes."
"Alas, it's a pity for your youth. It's all wasted to look so good." Concubine Zhao sighed, "Actually, the first emperor didn't favor the palace very much, but the palace finally gave birth to a dragon son."
"Does the Queen Mother have any secrets?" Concubine Jin blinked, with some anticipation in her eyes.
Concubine Zhao's eyes rolled and she smiled and said, "Of course, in fact, men are all hypocritical, so we just need to take the initiative. Come, Hongu will teach you a few things......
Concubine Jin blushed and lowered her head.
For her, a big girl, those things are a bit hard to talk about.
Concubine Zhao followed the temptation for a long time, and finally simply took Concubine Jin's hand and whispered, "Come, go to the Heart Cultivation Hall today, and this palace will help you!"
Concubine Jin symbolically struggled for a moment, but still let Concubine Zhao pull her away.
When the two arrived at the Heart Cultivation Palace, Concubine Zhao looked at it and saw that there were Zhao Gonggong and others guarding the gate, and it was not easy to enter.
When she was distressed, Concubine Jin suddenly said, "There is a gap in the garden, I saw it before, and it should be able to be turned over."
"It seems that sister, you have not done your homework less." Concubine Zhao chuckled.
Concubine Jin's face turned red again, and she was embarrassed to speak.
The gap in the wall was behind a small tree in the garden, and if Concubine Jin hadn't led the way, Concubine Zhao wouldn't have been able to find this place at all.
As a result, the two palace concubines actually climbed over the outer wall of the Yangxin Palace, bypassing the guarded Zhao Gonggong and others.
Concubine Zhao whispered, "Let's take a look at the situation first, and if the time is right, you will go in." Remember, you must take the initiative, you are so good-looking, you will definitely be able to fascinate the emperor!"
"Good!" Concubine Jin nodded as if she had made up her mind.
The two of them were sneaking up on the wall like thieves, and they heard the sound of fighting coming from the Heart Cultivation Palace.
"Ning'er, you measure me well, don't make trouble."
"Sister, you seem to have grown up again, let me take a good look!" Wei Ning's voice was like a hooligan.
Listening to the conversation between the two sisters, the two outside were already stunned.
Concubine Zhao lowered her head for a long time, as if she had figured out something, and her eyes suddenly glowed!
Then she got up and looked through the crack in the window.
After a few moments, she crouched back again.
Concubine Jin asked with a puzzled expression, "Who is the person inside?" Why did Princess Wei Ning call her sister?"
Concubine Zhao didn't answer, but her eyes widened. With a face full of surprise, he said to himself, "I see, I see! Wei Qing, Wei Qing, you really have a shocking secret!"
