Today's saint is called Yongqing.

Emperor Yongqing's heirs are quite abundant, with a total of six princes and five princesses.

Among the princes, the eldest prince and the second prince died early, and the biological mother of the fourth prince had a low status.

The fifth prince is from Concubine Li, and the sixth prince is from the concubine.

The last two princes' birthdays are only half a month apart, but everyone in the palace knows that Emperor Yongqing loves the five princes more than the six princes, so the two princes have not dealt with each other since childhood.

Their mothers are also not dealing with each other.

Concubine Li uses "Li" as her title, which shows her beauty. She is a six-rank official daughter, relying on the favor of Emperor Yongqing for more than ten years, standing tall in the harem.

The concubine is the niece of the powerful minister Ji Yushan, with a prominent family background, and has been in charge of the phoenix seal and the harem after the death of the queen.

Some time ago, the minister attached to the Ji family re-mentioned the matter of the queen and wanted to push the concubine to the position of queen, but Emperor Yongqing rejected it on the spot.

The next day happened to be the birthday of the five princes, and Emperor Yongqing casually took off the jade pendant on his waist and gave it to the five princes as a birthday gift.

……

Speaking of this, Yao Rong's voice paused.

The third prince asked, "And then?" ”

Yao Rong looked at the third prince quietly, there was no jealousy or resentment on his face, as if Emperor Yongqing was just a stranger.

[Test you.] Yao Rong said, [What do you think will happen later?] ］

"Does that jade pendant have any special significance?"

[When Emperor Yongqing was still a prince, the first emperor gave him the jade pendant. Over the years, Emperor Yongqing has been wearing it with him. ]

The third prince frowned slightly, the symbolism of this jade pendant is not ordinary, accompanying Emperor Yongqing from the prince to the prince to the son of heaven: "Have the five princes accepted it?" ”

[Concubine Li was short-sighted and let the five princes accept it.] ]

"I remember that the birth date of the sixth prince was similar to that of the fifth prince. That ......" The voice of the third prince paused, and Yao Rong shouted, "Did Emperor Yongqing give the six princes any birthday gifts?" ”

[Nope.] ］

The third prince affirmed: "The concubine must be mad. ”

The son is more precious than the mother, and the identity of the sixth prince must be slightly more valuable than that of the fifth prince.

But as soon as someone in the previous dynasty proposed the matter of establishing the future, Emperor Yongqing began to promote the five princes, obviously deliberately losing the face of the concubine.

However, in order to slap the concubine and the Ji family in the face, he pushed the five princes to the front of the stage, making the five princes a thorn in the side of the concubine and the Ji family...... Isn't this too extreme?

In the eyes of the three princes, even if Emperor Yongqing loves the five princes, this love has a limit.

[With the family background of the concubine, do you think she can look up to Concubine Li?] ]

"I can't afford it."

[That's right, she doesn't look down on Concubine Li, let alone Emperor Yongqing.] ]

The Third Prince: "......"

[The six princes are the heart of the concubine, and they have been raised by the concubine since they were young, and they can be said to be windy and rainy. The only place where the six princes did not win against the five princes was the love of Emperor Yongqing. ]

[Maybe Emperor Yongqing really loves the Five Princes, but there is also a possibility that Emperor Yongqing deliberately made everyone think that he loved the Five Princes.] ]

This statement coincides with the conjecture of the third prince just now. What the third prince didn't understand was: "Why did you do this on purpose?" ”

[First, with his support, Concubine Li can fight in the ring with the concubine, and the harem will not become a hall of words for the concubine. ]

[Second, doing so can hurt the six princes, and then hurt the concubine.] ]

[When the person you look down on, slaps yourself in the face, and hurts your own children, do you think the concubine will be indifferent?] ]

The third prince lowered his eyes and thought seriously.

There is no doubt that the concubine will definitely take revenge and go back.

Could it be that those two eunuchs are from the palace of the concubine?

The third prince first had such a conjecture in his mind, and he denied it.

If those two eunuchs were from the Guifei Palace, there was no need to come to the vicinity of Changxin Palace.

deliberately ran to a remote place to connect, and killed Gui Sheng who was passing by, probably because the two eunuchs didn't want to reveal their identities and didn't want Gui Sheng to see their faces clearly.

Combining all of the above......

"A eunuch is from the concubine's side."

"Another ...... It should be Concubine Li'......" A flash of inspiration flashed in the third prince's mind, and he quickly changed his words, "It's someone from the palace of the Five Emperors!" ”

Yao Rong smiled: [Why is it the Fifth Prince and not Concubine Li?] ］

The third prince said his thoughts: "No matter how favored Concubine Li is, it is impossible to surpass the concubine. Without Concubine Li, there will be other concubines, and there is no need for the concubine to spend a lot of effort to deal with Concubine Li. ”

"But the Five Princes are different. The existence of the five princes will indeed block the path of the concubine and the six princes. The concubine is in charge of the six palaces, whether it is to install a person in the palace of the Five Emperors, or to buy people in the palace of the Five Emperors, it is very easy. ”

[You're right.] Yao Rong affirmed, [Those two eunuchs, one is in charge of tending to flowers and plants in the palace of the concubine, and the other is in charge of eating and drinking in the palace of the Five Emperors. ］

Diet......

The three princes only felt their hearts pounding: what did the concubine want to do when she bribed the eunuch in charge of meals in the palace of the five emperors.

- What else can be done!

Of course, I want to attack the five princes!

At the age of the sixth prince, it was the time when he was full of admiration for his father. Emperor Yongqing took advantage of the envy of the six princes for him, and unscrupulously hurt the six princes, and the concubine could not bear it anymore.

If Emperor Yongqing dares to hurt her child, she dares to take revenge on his child.

In the original plot, not long after Gui Sheng drowned by the lake, the five princes died violently, and the eunuch in charge of the five princes' meals committed suicide on the spot, and there was no proof of death.

Since then, the situation in the palace has become more and more out of control.

In the end, the palace mutiny broke out, countless people died, and the three princes were pushed to the throne by Ji Yushan in a panic......

It can be said that the death of the five princes was the fuse of the palace change.

The third prince is still too young, and he has no foundation inside and outside the palace, and he needs enough time to grow up. So right now, the five princes can't have an accident.

[Now release the main quest two: ask the host to use this known information to sabotage the concubine's plan and protect himself and Guisheng.] Limited to three days.

After completing the task, open the "Subset of History" section and get 100 points, and there is no penalty for failing the task. ]

October is not yet the season for plum blossoms, so few palace people come to the plum garden.

But at this moment, in the corner of the plum garden, the two eunuchs were quietly meeting.

The eunuch in charge of tending to the flowers and plants in the palace of the concubine said impatiently: "Didn't you say it, we can not meet recently, it is better not to meet." ”

The eunuch in charge of the meal in the palace of the Five Emperors didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "The old eunuch didn't die, he was saved by the one in the cold palace." ”

The eunuch was startled, lowered his voice and scolded: "What's the matter? Didn't you see him sink into the lake before leaving? ”

The meal eunuch said: "Now is not the time to talk about this. What do you think is going to happen next? ”

A ruthless look crossed the eyes of the eunuch of the flowers and plants: "With the temperament of the noble concubine, if you know that we have made such a big mistake, you and I will not be able to please the good fruit to eat." That old eunuch must die. ”

"What about the one in the cold palace?"

"At this juncture, if two princes are killed in a row, it will be too eye-catching. Spare him for his life first, and wait until the rumors have passed. ”

"Okay, there was a new sprinkler in Concubine Li's palace yesterday, called Que'er. I've inquired, she used to serve in the cold palace, and we can borrow her hand to get rid of the old eunuch. ”

The third prince sat in the courtyard and thought about it for a long time, still not knowing what method to use to complete the task.

Just when he was at a loss, there was a gentle knock on the door.

The third prince jerked his head in the direction of the gate.

Changxin Palace has always been deserted, who is knocking on the door at this juncture?

"Your Highness, Gonggong Gui, it's me back."

It's the voice of a magpie.

"I used the only money left in my hand to exchange for some food and cotton cloth, which His Highness can use......"

"I know you're angry with me and don't want to see me, so I'll leave my things at the door and you can come out and get them when I'm gone."

[The timing of her appearance is too coincidental, go open the door and see what she wants to do.] ］

The third prince was taken aback: "You mean ......"

[I just think it's a little weird, and I can't be sure.] ］

Que'er put down the basket, turned to leave, and only walked a few steps when she heard the sound of the door opening behind her.

She turned around and said in surprise: "Your Highness, it's great that you are still willing to see me." ”

The three emperors lowered their heads and looked at the basket full of supplies at their feet, and their feelings were a little complicated.

Que'er took care of him for a while, even if Que'er left him and found a way to go to other palaces, he was only a little sad, and he didn't blame Que'er in his heart.

But if Que'er comes back this time, he will not simply send supplies, but do something in the name of sending materials......

On the other side, Que'er was still talking to herself, constantly telling her troubles. At the end, she looked inside: "Your Highness, what about Gonggong Gui, why haven't I seen him come out." ”

The third prince was so confused that he only said: "Gui is sick and has a cold." ”

"What?" Que'er exclaimed in surprise and said nervously, "It must be that what I said yesterday was too much, which made Gonggong Gui angry, and he will get sick." It's all my fault, it's all my fault. Your Highness, how is the situation of Gonggong Gui? ”

Looking at Que'er's pompous performance, the third prince's heart sank to the bottom little by little: "The situation is not very good, we have no medicinal materials in the cold palace, so we can only use a towel to compress our forehead to cool down." Are you going to go in and see Gui Sheng? ”

"I'm not going in." The third prince's voice was very cold, but Que'er didn't think much about it, "Wind and cold are serious and can be fatal, how can you do it without taking medicine." I'll think of a way to see if I can get the right medicine for my grandfather Gui. ”

Dropping this sentence, Que'er left in a hurry.

The third prince stood in place, quietly watching the background of Que'er leaving, with a sad expression.

If he hadn't known the truth beforehand, he would have been very happy to see Que'er coming over with a basket and hear Que'er say that he would help get the herbs, whether he could use them or not......

He guessed that those people would make a move, but what he didn't guess was that those people would send Magpie over.

Magpie may not know exactly what those people are going to do, but ......

Could she really not have guessed what those people were up to?

"You're sure now." The third prince gambled.

Yao Rong didn't reply immediately.

Reason returned slightly, and the third prince realized that he was impulsive. No matter how angry he is in his heart, he shouldn't vent it on the system.

The system suddenly stopped talking, did he feel that his words and actions offended her? As soon as he thought of this, the third prince suddenly became frightened, and the words of apology almost blurted out.

Then he was the first to hear the apology—

[Sorry.] ]

Yao Rong knew that he was very aggrieved and sad.

The angry words with a sense of anger were just to hide his sadness.

Being abandoned and betrayed by someone who once depended on each other is too cruel for an adult.

Not to mention to a teenager.

[I don't want you to confront this if you can.] ]

[But no.] ]

[Your situation is too dangerous, and if you delay a little longer, you may be more dangerous.] You have to grow up as quickly as possible. ]

The third prince was inexplicably flustered, and Yao Rong's reaction was completely unexpected by him: "It's good if you don't blame me." ”

[How could I blame you, it's not your fault.] ]

Yes, he didn't do anything wrong, Gui Sheng didn't do anything wrong, they just wanted to stay in the cold palace, but some people didn't want to let them go.

Why are they at the mercy of others, as small people, are they destined to become victims of the big man's plan, and they are not even qualified to live.

If this matter must end in death, then it will not be him and Gui Sheng who die.

The third prince lowered his eyes, he knew how to complete the main quest two.

As long as Concubine Li knows that Concubine Li has bought the eunuchs around the five princes, Concubine Li will definitely make a move. Maybe she can't deal with the concubine for the time being, but it's still easy for Concubine Li to deal with the two eunuchs.

In this way, Guifei's plan was ruined, and the crisis on him and Gui Sheng was lifted.

The real difficulty lies in how he can let Concubine Li know about this matter without exposing himself. ：，，
