Chapter 445: A Brief Silence
"Really, what if it's fake, what can you do with just Yang's words before he died?"
Fang Yu picked up the teacup and took a shallow sip.
Even if what Yang said was true, there was no evidence.
"The slave is just worried about Niangniang, after all, what the Yang family said is not unreasonable." Yan sighed slightly.
The favored concubine and the unfavored queen, since ancient times, these two types of people have rarely been able to coexist in peace.
Fang Yu narrowed his eyes, "Your mind is known to this palace, don't worry, the queen will not do anything to this palace for the time being." ”
"Niangniang, the slave doesn't understand this." Yan Wei looked puzzled.
At present, in the harem, in addition to the queen, Fang Yu, the eldest concubine, although there is still a concubine on the throne, but the concubine has no family background and no grace, although she has children, but the eldest prince is not top-notch in his studies so far.
Concubine Yang, a fierce rival, fell, and in order to ensure the stability of the phoenix's position, it was naturally best to take down Fang Yu again.
Although Concubine Yang is annoying, what she said is not unreasonable.
Facing Yanwei's doubts, Fang Yu put down the teacup in his hand and said in a deep voice.
"The queen is not stupid, she must have known that in the matter of the emperor's destruction of the Yang family this time, the palace also contributed, so the palace is a meritorious person in front of the emperor, and the emperor still loves the palace, she is against me at the moment, didn't she follow the old path of the Yang family."
Speaking of this, Fang Yu paused, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.
"Besides, now that the draft has begun, the New Year's Eve has passed, the last round of palace selection, the rookie girl is about to enter the palace, this is the first draft after the emperor ascends the throne, how many families are waiting for this opportunity, the show girl who can go to the end, must have a good appearance or family background, if the palace sits in the queen's position, there must be a favored concubine first, and it will be used as a knife."
Yan Wei's heart tightened, "Isn't that Niangniang going to do things for the queen." ”
"Wouldn't I have to face those newcomers without the queen?"
Fang Yu hooked the corners of her lips slightly and looked at her with a smile.
"No concubine will dare to pull the queen down as soon as she enters the palace, but everyone will have the goal of becoming a favorite concubine in their hearts, and I will naturally become their wayblock.
"Niangniang, you are still laughing, and the slave is also worried!" Yan frowned slightly.
Fang Yu waved his hand at this time, "Okay, don't think about it, after getting along with the queen for so many years, I have a little understanding of the queen's temperament, as long as I don't think about her things, she won't do anything to me." ”
In the harem, the queen and the favored concubine are on the same alliance line, are you afraid that you won't be able to suppress the newcomers?
If there is really such a powerful one, who can defeat her and the queen at one time, then he can only think that his skills are inferior.
"Okay, what about Qingrong? Haven't come back yet? Fang Yu changed the subject.
Yan shook her head slightly, "Not yet, I haven't come back yet, I guess I'm going to pick up the second princess from school again." ”
"Now I want to go to school every day, and when I go to study seriously in the new year, I'm afraid I don't want to go." Fang Yu smiled on his face, and immediately got up, "I'm in a good mood today, accompany me to the small kitchen to cook two dishes, I haven't cooked in person for a long time." ”
"Yes."
Yan Wei responded, and a smile appeared on his face.
Fengxuan Palace.
When Yan Li came in from outside, the queen was teasing the five princes.
Hearing the movement, he waved his hand and asked Min Si to hug the five princes down first.
"Is the errand done?" The queen sat down and asked in a deep voice.
Yan Li arched his hand, "If you go back to Niangniang, the Yang family will die if she refuses, and the slave forcibly poured the wine and died, and now he orders someone to transport the corpse out of the palace." ”
"Hmm." The queen bowed her head and said, "What did Yang say before he died?" ”
"When the slave went, Concubine Zhao had just come out of the cold palace, she should have gone to see the last time the Yang family, the Yang family didn't know what to stimulate, the whole person was crazy, and shouted that Concubine Zhao dared to murder the emperor's heir Yunyun, and then cursed Niangniang, the vocabulary was dirty, unbearable, and the slave didn't dare to say that he knew with Niangniang."
Faced with the queen's questioning, Yan Li answered truthfully.
And the queen quickly caught the point in Yan Li's mouth.
"Murder of the imperial heir, Concubine Zhao?"
"Yes." Yan Li nodded, "But the Yang family is crazy, one moment shouting the third prince, the next moment saying that the child in her womb was victimized, and the next moment scolding Zhao Guifei for being pregnant and killed back then is damned, I really can't hear anything useful." ”
After hearing this, the queen's eyes darkened, and she was silent for a moment before waving her hand.
"Okay, Bengu knows, you go down."
Yan Li arched his hand and stepped back respectfully.
Tian Mo only stepped forward at this moment, "I don't know what Concubine Zhao said to the Yang family, she can be forced out of control." ”
"The Yang family will kill herself if she does too much injustice, she has always hated Concubine Zhao, no matter what Concubine Zhao says, she can easily provoke her, if you are a crazy person, you don't have to think about it, the affairs of Yuzhang Palace, just treat it as always." The queen commanded lightly.
The latter answered, and did not ask any more questions.
For the rest of the day, the harem returned to peace.
The case of Nanning Houfu in the previous dynasty is over, and Concubine Yang in the palace has also died, Pei Yao is in a very good mood, and he has to come to Yuzhang Palace almost every day.
For a time, Fang Yu's favor can be described as the only crown of the six palaces.
Of course, Pei Yao still did not lose his rules, and he should go to the queen's palace on the fifteenth day of the first month, and he was never ambiguous.
The queen is very satisfied with this, and now she is focused on raising the five princes, and she is also happy to be at ease.
But something happened in the previous dynasty, and Prime Minister Lu Cheng asked for his resignation.
said that he was old, his health was not good, and he was a little powerless, so he was afraid that he could no longer assist the emperor well.
In this regard, Pei Yao naturally did not agree.
Where is Prime Minister Lu Cheng, he is only in his early fifties, less than sixty, and there are many officials who are older than him, and his resignation is just an attitude.
Nanning Houfu was wiped out in front of the door, and the Lu family is now prosperous because of a queen, and they are naturally worried.
Pei Yao knew Prime Minister Lu Cheng's thoughts, so he refused decisively, and bluntly said that he believed in the loyalty of the Lu family, and praised him a lot.
Although Prime Minister Lu Cheng felt a lot more at ease, he still took the initiative to remove some of the idle workers in the family, and transferred several young nephews of the Lu family out of Kyoto and released them to become officials.
It can be regarded as taking the initiative to weaken the influence of the Lu family in the capital court, and the emperor's heart.
The Lu family is loyal, but they are also afraid that the Son of Heaven will be suspicious.
Pei Yao saw the Lu family's actions in his eyes, and his heart became more and more satisfied.
Then he began to arrange the spring of the following year.
The coming year is expected to be lively.
A batch of fresh blood is about to pour into the court, and the same is true for the harem.
And the period between now and the end of the year will be a short period of tranquility.
Of course, this is also the assumption.
Because there was no peace for a few days, Fang Yu noticed that He Lingyi was a little strange.
Originally, she had been staring at her before, but she didn't take special care of her because she had to take care of the Yang family, but now that the Yang family has been removed, Fang Yu has also rested and rectified, but she has the leisure to take a look at the situation on He Lingyi's side.
"Niangniang, He Lingyi sent someone to secretly go to the Furong Palace again, but this time she still ate behind closed doors, and Concubine Yan didn't see her." Qingrong reported in a low voice on the side.
