Chapter 59: Messing Around
After walking out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Gu Chenfeng breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he didn't know what happened between Fan Shicheng and Zhao Feng, it was obvious that Fan Shicheng didn't get half of the delicious food.
Fortunately, he chose Zhao Feng......
As for Fan Shicheng, almost all the information he has so far pointed the finger at Cining Palace, and he has always been eager to retaliate, and he has begun to prepare a means of counterattack.
"Why didn't you call the slave family to come to the house these days?"
Lan Xiang leaned on Fan Shicheng's arms with a coquettish face, "The slave family thought that they were tired of being grown up by adults, and they were secretly sad in the house for many days!" ”
Fan Shicheng smiled and pulled her into his arms, raised his wine glass and took a big sip.
"No, no! It's just that something happened in the house a few days ago, and I'm really busy, so I can't take care of you! ”
"You see, today, the old man has taken care of things, and as soon as he is free, didn't he immediately find you? Don't be too careful! ”
After being so comforted by Fan Shicheng, Lan Xiang's face showed a smile again, and when his eyes were focused on the dancing girl in the hall, he secretly shook off a few drops of unknown liquid from his sleeve and mixed them into the dishes on the table.
"Adults have been haggard these days, so you need to eat more to make up for it."
Lan Xiangjiao smiled, picked up a chopstick dish and put it into Fan Shicheng's mouth, and he didn't know anything about it, but he happily ate it into his stomach.
Seeing that the first poisoning went so smoothly, Lan Xiang silently breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
"Fan Shicheng is crazy?!"
The queen mother of Cining Palace couldn't help but be angry when she heard the situation reported by Red Sleeves,
"A few days ago, I finally stopped for a while, why did this old thing start targeting the mourning family again recently? Isn't it old and confused, what kind of madness can't you do?! ”
"This slave doesn't know."
Red Sleeves shook his head, "It's just that I heard that recently, Fan Shicheng's people deliberately went to make trouble in those shops or Zhuangzi under your name, so that those shops were completely unable to open their doors to welcome customers, and their income also dropped sharply." ”
"And they are also squeezing out those officials who stand in line with you in the court, which seems to be worse than the last time."
Listening to the words of the red sleeves, the Queen Mother's expression was even more unhappy.
I thought that after the inexplicable assassination last time, both of them could stop a little, but I didn't expect this old guy to start arriving again?
"Bastard!"
The Queen Mother gritted her teeth, "If it weren't for the fact that the Mourning family has lost most of their power in the palace now, the Mourning family would have been able to handle this matter properly!" ”
"But now that the forbidden army of the palace is controlled by Yongle Palace, it is inconvenient for the mourning family to call someone into the palace, and they really don't have the energy to accompany him to continue to mess around!"
When she thought of this, the Queen Mother was annoyed, and she never thought that her position in the Queen Mother would one day become a restriction.
"The matter...... Do you want to leave it to someone else? ”
Qingying on the side said tentatively, "It's not like you haven't had Fan Shicheng's handle in your hands over the years. ”
"Now that it's inconvenient for us to act, why don't we hand over these handles to people who are also unfavorable to Fan Shicheng? In this way, we don't have to do it to clean up Fan Shicheng. ”
"Give it to someone else?"
The Queen Mother's scrutinizing gaze swept Qingying, "Are you talking about Yongle Palace?" Don't think about this, even if the mourning family doesn't deal with Fan Shicheng, they won't please that girl! ”
"Naturally, what the slave said is not Yongle Palace!"
Qing Ying hurriedly explained, "It won't do us any good to give Yongle Palace, but will help her deal with an enemy, and the slave means to hand over those evidence to Mrs. Sun." ”
"Mrs. Sun?"
Hearing this, the Queen Mother came to the next place, "Give it to him...... Seems pretty good too. ”
"The slave also thinks this is a good proposal."
Red Sleeves also immediately helped, "At the beginning, Mrs. Sun's power was hollowed out, although we didn't make a lot of efforts, but Fan Shicheng's hands were definitely not clean." ”
"Let's just tell Mrs. Sun that everything was done by Fan Shicheng at the beginning, and then hand over all the evidence to Mrs. Sun, how can Mrs. Sun let him go?!"
"In this way, Fan Shicheng can not only be cleaned up, but also sell his personal favor to Mrs. Sun, who is now the master of many rookies in the imperial court, if you can win him over, the benefits will be great!"
The more she listened to their analysis, the more the Queen Mother felt good, and after a little thought, she immediately decided to make a decision.
"Good! Tonight, you will leave the palace and hand over the handle of Fan Shicheng's old thing over the years to Mrs. Sun! ”
"Yes!"
In the Taifu Mansion at night, after Taifu Sun finished dealing with today's affairs, he blew out the light in the study and prepared to go back to sleep.
And at this time, he suddenly heard a sound of footsteps from behind, which made Mrs. Sun's hair stand on end.
"What man!?"
Mrs. Sun was shocked, and immediately turned around to ask, and through the faint moonlight, she vaguely saw a figure.
"Don't panic, Taifu."
Red Sleeves said in a low voice, "The slave maid is the Red Sleeves next to the Empress Dowager of Cining Palace, and I came to the Taifu tonight to discuss something important." ”
Dowager?!
Sun Taifu was a little nervous in his heart, although his Taifu Mansion was not heavily guarded, but this person was able to bypass those people and quietly sneak into his study, I am afraid there was still some effort.
If it refuses, it is estimated that the consequences are somewhat unimaginable.
After some rational thinking, Mrs. Sun immediately calmed down, lit the candle again, and sat back in the chair.
With the light, Mrs. Sun's heart calmed down a little.
"What is the matter with the Queen Mother looking for the old minister? If there is something serious that can be summoned during the day, why do you sneak into the old minister's mansion in the middle of the night? ”
"Don't blame Mrs. Sun."
Red Sleeves came to cooperate with Mrs. Sun this time, and his attitude was exceptionally good.
"It's really because this matter is not suitable to be put on the bright side, and there are also many restrictions, so the mother let the slave maid use this method."
"But this time the matter is definitely beneficial to you, Taifu, and please be patient and listen to the slave and maid."
Seeing that the red sleeves didn't look hostile, Mrs. Sun nodded and motioned for him to continue.
"I don't know if Taifu knows, why did you change from the closest person to His Majesty to the idle position that only leads students in the Guozi Prison?"
Red Sleeves asked, and Mrs. Sun couldn't help but sneer when she heard this.
Why?
Isn't it just a good thing that the Queen Mother and Fan Shicheng did?
"Say whatever you want, don't play any twists and turns here, the old man is not in the mood."
Mrs. Sun frowned, "If it's just for small talk, then you can go back, Lao Chen's time is not used for this!" ”
"Fan Shicheng did it!"
Seeing that Mrs. Sun was impatient, Red Sleeves hurriedly spoke.
