Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 162 Confusion in the World

Gu Jue was young, and although he was smart, he was not a man after all. Yun Fenghuang didn't expect her to know much about Gu's secrets, so he summoned him, but asked about the temperament and personality of Gu's dignitaries. After thinking for a while, he waved his hand sent people away.

"Your Majesty." Gu Jue didn't leave. She was not very old, but she had always been a sensible person. She knew that she was not what she used to be now. After the collapse of the Gu family, her usefulness to noble concubines would only go from bad to worse.

If you don't seize this rare opportunity to summon her, even if no one targets her in the future, and King Qin doesn't like her, and there will be no shortage of beauties to serve her, how good will she be?

Therefore, ever since I was summoned, I couldn't stop thinking about how to take the opportunity to win the attention of the imperial concubine, and at this moment I took the initiative to say, "Return to your mother, I heard from my mother earlier that the regent is still here. At that time, my grandfather had secretly returned to the imperial capital from the border. It seemed that His Majesty had only been in power not long ago. It’s just that my grandfather had never met the regent, but he had met my little uncle in private.”

Yun Fenghuang was not very interested in the news at first. Gu Jue's grandfather was Gu Fangshu, Marquis of Longping, and his younger uncle was Qi Jiulu. Even if this is true, it at most proves that Gu Fangshu was wooed to Chunjia early in the morning. Here, even when he secretly returned to Beijing, he didn't say hello to the regent.

As for Qi Jiulu...

It's no secret that Gu Fangshu attaches great importance to this subordinate.

But Gu Jue said again: "I overheard my mother mentioning this matter to her accompanying aunt, saying that my grandfather actually wanted to see the regent at that time, but the regent refused, but recommended my younger uncle to my grandfather. My grandfather stayed in the imperial capital for several days. Seeing that the Prince Regent refused to change his mind, she left with a sense of disappointment. My mother was quite puzzled by this, and she even went to inquire with my grandmother. It's just that my grandmother didn't like people mentioning this matter very much, and my mother didn't dare to say more. "

Only then did Yun Fenghuang raise his eyebrows, thinking that the operation of the regent king was really confusing the world.

At that time, Gu Fangshu secretly went back to Beijing to meet this former comrade, presumably to support him.

The regent is not even willing to meet face to face, this...? ? ?

If he had no ambition, he was right to do so.

But the question is, what kind of regent would you be without ambition? No ambition to take charge of any Imperial City Division? How long have you been fighting Chunjia without ambition? ? ?

"The last two generations of the Gongxiang family were so confused?" Yun Fenghuang thought to himself, and said, "How could your mother know such a thing?"

Gu Jue was embarrassed for a while before he said: "At that time, His Majesty was in charge, the front and back palaces were quite turbulent, and the people in the family were panic-stricken, saying anything. Parents also followed for a while, asking for news everywhere. At that time, I was young, and my mother took me to live in a wing room in the yard. When I was playing, my mother and the servants didn’t care about the courtiers, so I heard some words. Because I was young, I didn’t understand it, and I gradually recalled it when I grew up. When I got up, I discovered the meaning of it.”

The imperial concubine stared at her for a moment, smiled, and ordered someone to reward her with some jewelry and clothing, and said gently: "You are a good boy, let alone the usual ones, now that you are with King Qin, I will let him take care of you." Waiting for you."

Both of them didn't really believe this, but Gu Jue still respectfully thanked her and went on.

The attendant reminded Yun Fenghuang after she left: "Your Majesty, His Majesty's words are not going to let her go."

"I know." Yun Fenghuang said casually, "The arrangement of the left and right Gu's has not yet been settled. Don't be too happy in this first month, let's talk about it when the time comes. It's not that King Qin is really reluctant to part with her."

She pondered for a while, then sighed, "Let's postpone the showdown. I will talk to His Majesty after the Lantern Festival."

The main reason is that she really can't think of any suitable reason to prevaricate Chunjia right now.

If you do it reluctantly, I'm afraid the emperor will see more flaws.

"It's still the first month of the month, everything is complicated, and I'm pregnant again, so it's understandable that I don't have time to confess to him for a while." Thinking so, the noble concubine settled down.

After noon, the palace servants came to report that Princess Yun'an had entered the palace to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager, and came over to sit down.

Ever since Princess Jinxi and Shafer forgot their engagement, the relationship between the two parties has always been close.

Not to mention the holidays, even during normal times, whenever Yun An enters the palace, he will not miss the Xuanqing Palace.

So Yun Fenghuang didn't take it seriously, and ordered the small kitchen to prepare the tea that Yun'an's mother and daughter liked, and waited.

It's just that the situation is a little different this time, the palace servant reminded in a low voice: "His Royal Highness Yun An said that she was entrusted by His Royal Highness Ming Hui, and she will bring the two young ladies with her."

Minghui had two sons and three daughters in the past two years, but a youngest daughter died not long after she was born, and so far only two sons, two daughters and four children are alive.

Yunqingao is the eldest daughter, and she has a younger sister, Yunqinxin.

The two sisters are actually not very old this year, and Yunqin Gao is only seven years old.

Because the biological father is unknown, the four children are quite embarrassed in the circle of the Imperial Capital...but it's not that bad.

The main reason is that Minghui's status is special, even Chunjia can't do anything about her younger sister, and the others are not stupid, why would they want to offend the former emperor's daughter for a little articulate pleasure?

Minghui dared to make a big disturbance in the court, and told Chunjia not to step down in public. If it was an ordinary powerful family member, she would only be more domineering and flamboyant.

The point is, Chunjia will definitely not do anything to her.

Because the children who taunted her were found at home to find fault, they could only admit it.

As long as the rich and powerful family didn't get into trouble, they naturally didn't want to cause such trouble.

Therefore, although everyone knew that the bloodlines of these children were complicated, on the scene, they were still flattering and did not dare to neglect.

Perhaps it was for this reason that the two sisters sat together with Jin Xi, and there was no difference in their demeanor. They were the kind of girls who were carefully raised by a wealthy family.

If you don't know their life experience, the impression is not bad.

Yun Fenghuang calmly said a few words on the occasion, ordered someone to give a meeting gift, and then called Zhao Qing and the second emperor to come over, and called the three cousins ​​to go out to play, while he talked to Princess Yun'an: "Your Majesty, please come here. I just talked to Bengong, I thought it was only after the women's school opened, why did I ask you to lead me here now?"

Yunan knew that there was a deep grievance between her and Minghui, so she had a rather embarrassing expression on her face: "I don't want to take this job, but Minghui is not in good health now. Is it my sister? When I went to visit, she pulled My hand entrusted the two girls to me, I really can't refuse."

After all, she is a niece. Yun An said that, but she was still worried about it. Seeing that Yun Fenghuang was not angry at this moment, she thought about her words and said, "Minghui has come to mess around, and the empress knows. But she raised this The two girls are quite caring, and the ones responsible for their upbringing are both old people left behind by the commoner Ji Sheng. Although that one did some bad things in the palace, when it comes to teaching girls, he is also very good. There are some redeeming qualities."

Yun Fenghuang actually believed in Ji's lineage's method of raising children.

In addition, Chunjia personally opened the mouth about Yunqin Gao's matter, if it was just like this, she might still have a cold attitude.

But who is Ji Qin, she is also guilty?

At this moment, he said softly: "Look at me, he is indeed a well-behaved child."

Seeing this, Yun An breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "But Madam Lao is here."

He also said, "The child is still young, if he can get a lesson from his mother, he will be more sensible in the future."

Yun Fenghuang smiled, didn't answer the question, but asked about Minghui's situation: "It's fine if His Majesty stops you from spreading it outside the palace, why didn't you tell me?"

No matter how embarrassing Minghui's assassination was, the emperor would not hide it from Yun'an and Sui'an. After all, these two sisters are Minghui's blood-related sisters, and they are the only people she is close to now.

It is impossible for the Empress Dowager to go out of the palace to visit her. The two younger sisters happen to be in the Imperial Capital, but they can go there.

But these days, Yun An and Sui An entered the palace quite a few times, but none of them told the noble concubine, Yun Fenghuang was quite displeased thinking about it.

"I was going to say it, but it's not..." Yun An quickly explained, "Isn't it because you think about what happened back then, and think that you might not want to hear about her?"

This is of course prevarication, in fact, Yun An and Sui An discussed it in private, and they all felt that regarding the relationship between the imperial concubine and Ming Hui, it was inevitable to take pleasure in other's misfortunes.

No matter how bad Ming Hui was, she was their first sister after all. The three of them grew up together and were related by blood. In fact, their relationship was not bad in the early days.

Although these years have caused a lot of estrangement by coincidence, Minghui is almost dying, and the two younger sisters are also very close to each other.

It is really unbearable to ask the imperial concubine to laugh at Minghui's fate at this moment, and maybe even add fuel to the flames.

So the two eldest princesses discussed it, not only did they hide it from the noble concubine, but even begged the emperor not to reveal the news.

As it turned out, if it wasn't for Minghui's concern for her daughter, Yun Fenghuang would just focus on the struggle between the country and the capital, and would not have paid attention to it.

After listening to Yun An's explanation, she nodded slightly and said: "You think too narrowly of me, no matter how bad Minghui is, she is His Majesty's younger sister after all, I am grateful to His Majesty, how can I not do it for His Majesty?" Think about it? The common man Ji Sheng has gone, and his biological daughter is not good at such a young age, but I hope no one is muttering nonsense."

He also said, "And the children under Ming Hui's knees, after she goes, Yun will probably ignore them. What rules can you discuss?"

Seeing her attitude, Yun An was not sure if she was sincere or not.

After hesitating for a while, he said: "Your Majesty promised to give some rewards to the children next year, so that they will have something to rely on in the future."

"As for the Yun family, I will probably take care of Qin Xin. The other three children will probably ignore it."

That Yunqinxin looks a bit like the son-in-law Yunxike, so it is more likely that she is of Yun's blood.

Therefore, Mrs. Yun should continue to take care of them, but the other three children are not like son-in-law. Of course, Mrs. Yun will not care about their life and death, it is good that they have not done anything wrong.

"If that's the only way, the children are still young after all." Yun Fenghuang said lightly, "How can it be suitable without an elder by my side? In my opinion, since Qin Gao will enter a girls' school in the future, Qin Xin should go with her." The two boys are not suitable in the harem, but they can be arranged to go to the Qiongjiu Palace. First, they will study with the princes, and their studies will be guaranteed; How close should we be to our cousins. When we get older and have learned our skills, there will be enough reasons for His Majesty to be kind to you, how about it?"

Yun An was both surprised and delighted, and said: "But this... this... Sister Minghui did a lot of foolish things back then, this... Your Majesty repays your grievances with kindness, I thank you for your kindness on behalf of Sister Minghui, but it's just Your Majesty's place?"

"I'll go back and talk about it." Yun Fenghuang said bluntly, "They are all royal blood, does your majesty still mind? There is only one thing: I agree with the children coming into the palace, but usually they are still there." Forget it, this time, I'm pregnant, so I'm going to be struggling right now. If it's a few months later, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of myself. Therefore, the servants, you and Minghui have to figure it out for yourself. Bengong's ugly words first Let me say it up front: if they stumble in the palace, they can't blame me."

Yun An hurriedly said: "What are you talking about? Your mother is willing to give them such kindness. It's too late for sister Minghui and I to be grateful to you. How can you mess around?"

She was overjoyed, and left after sitting for a long time, intending to tell Minghui the good news immediately.

"Your Majesty wants to use this method to force His Highness Minghui to send all the old people who were given by the commoner Ji Sheng to the palace?" Seeing this, the Qing people asked softly, "It's just that His Majesty will really agree to teach Are they all raised in the palace?"

Yun Fenghuang said indifferently: "Do you really think that His Majesty cares about the arrangement of Minghui's mother and son? With the stability of His Majesty's current throne, there is no need to pretend to be perfect. He is willing to care about the appearance, but that is just a habit. I'm really in a hurry. Who can stop me from messing around? What Minghui did back then made His Majesty very sad and embarrassed, so His Majesty has become less and less concerned about her in the past two years. But, His Majesty is open-minded, and she She is also the daughter of Emperor Xiaozong, so it didn't make His Majesty anxious, and I didn't have my palace to persuade her, so she still has the dignity of her descendants."

"After all, regardless of whether those children are of Yun's blood, they must be of Xiaozong's flesh and blood."

"If I persuade Your Majesty to treat them badly, Your Majesty will most likely agree as long as he is not suspicious of me."

"If I persuade Your Majesty to treat them better, even if Your Majesty refuses, would you still blame me for being so soft-hearted?"

Her character is set as a loving mother, or a compassionate person who is kind to all children.

It is logical to intercede with Minghui's children at this moment.

If the intercession comes through, it will not only strengthen her image as a loving mother, but also give her a chance to question the old man Ji Sheng; In such a way, but still willing to add En Minghui's child.

It is also a virtue to be passed down to the previous dynasty.

Why not do it?
