Chapter 20 Revenge on the Spot
When this result came out, both Concubine Gui and Concubine Shu changed their expressions, and looked at each other at the same time, and the next moment, they looked back at Yunfenghuang.
And Yun Fenghuang also looked stunned.
"Your Majesty, there must be some kind of misunderstanding!" Concubine Shu immediately said to the Queen, "This concubine's younger sister is always well-behaved and docile, how could she do such a thing? Besides, my concubine's younger sister and Yi Cainv are strangers, It was the first time we met in the Huanhua Palace yesterday, and there was no grievance, no reason to attack them?! Taking ten thousand steps back, even though this concubine is a muddled sister, she has been reclusive since she went to Xuanqing Palace. I'm not familiar with Jia Jieyu, so how can I be sure that I met Jia Jieyu this morning, and I also met Jia Jieyu's palace servants hugging the happy concubine's concubine?"
Yun Fenghuang raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and said: "Sister Concubine Shu is right! Not only Qingman, but also the concubine is not familiar with Jia Jieyu, and I don't know that Jia Jieyu is holding Huanxier back this morning. For the imperial concubine and empress... I see, it’s probably because someone saw my Yun family with two concubines and one concubine and felt jealous, so they set up a trap and wanted to set the blame on me!"
As he spoke, he asked Concubine Shu, "Sister, do you think so? I don't know where these people are wrong. If you don't please His Majesty, you won't look in the mirror and stare at others. Is it possible that this palace Without our three sisters, His Majesty will definitely spoil them? Tsk!"
This remark was so hateful that Jia Jieyu couldn't help but sarcastically said: "Yeah, who doesn't know that sister Mao is the best at fighting for favor. Before you hired a concubine into the palace, you were the first to receive favor. Yesterday, a newly-promoted Cai girl entered the palace. Both the Yi Cai girl and the Qu Cai girl were in the Xuanqing Palace, but His Majesty still rested in the Huanhua Palace. This is really... you girls still need to learn more from the master, otherwise you will be served Not good, Your Majesty, what is the use of asking you to enter the palace?"
The implication is that Yun Fenghuang's appearance is too ugly, so he insisted on taking advantage of the host's convenience to stop the servants who were supposed to pick up the girls.
This is especially the case for the maids who entered the palace for the first time, and there may be a second, third, or countless times in the future... and the maids are no better than concubines, and their backgrounds are not good. Without the emperor's favor, how can they gain a foothold in the palace?
"Empress, concubine and concubine, concubine and concubine, are you listening?" Yun Fenghuang sneered suddenly when he heard the words, and the round fan that was originally shaking suddenly pointed at Jia Jieyu, and said loudly, "I just said, my concubine I'm not very familiar with Sister Jia, and the Xuanqing Palace is not close to the Feihan Palace. It was only this morning that Sister Jia found out about the fact that His Majesty rested in Huanhua Palace yesterday, saying that she hadn't been staring at him all the time. How is it possible to be a concubine!"
She quickly came to a conclusion, "So this must be because Sister Jia hates the concubine's life, and the beauty of the concubine's maid in the palace. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the imperial concubine to send Huanxi'er back to Feihan Palace for a few days, Qingman rewarded Cai's daughter." Playing tricks in the face, murdering the concubine's palace people, blaming Qing Man, intending to stir up discord in the Xuanqing Palace! In this way, it is too late for the concubine and these people to fight with each other, how can they have the heart to serve His Majesty? So, sister Jia Doesn't this kind of person who usually doesn't like His Majesty have a chance?"
Rao Jia Jieyu had just seen her ability to turn black and white into stitches, and she couldn't help being dumbfounded at this moment: "You...you are talking nonsense!!!"
"Then how do you know that His Majesty rested in the Huanhua Palace yesterday?" Yun Fenghuang laughed and said, "You didn't send anyone to watch the Xuanqing Palace, so could it be that you specially spy on the emperor's trace?!"
Jia Jieyu pressed her chest and felt a mouthful of old blood... At this moment, Lu Jieyu said: "Didn't Sister Mao go with Sister Jia just now? Maybe someone from Xuanqing Palace said it casually. Sister Jia, did you hear it?"
This reminded Jia Jieyu, and Jia Jieyu hurriedly said: "That's right! This matter was told to me when the two palaces walked together in the morning. What do you mean?"
The maid named Cailu praised her without even raising her head: "Returning to your mother, there were too many people at that time, and the servant girl couldn't remember which sister from Xuanqing Palace said it."
Relying on Lu Jieyu's reminder to finally confuse the topic, Jia Jieyu was shocked and didn't want to get entangled with Yun Fenghuang anymore, and was planning to just let it go, but Yun Fenghuang looked up at her, but didn't pursue it. However, he pointed the finger at Lu Jieyu: "Lu Jieyu really has a bright eye! Then why don't you tell me why Qingman has such a reason?"
Lu Jieyu was taken aback for a moment, showing a little helplessness, obviously she didn't expect this sister Mao to take revenge so quickly.
"Sister, forgive me, but my sister is just guessing randomly, and it just happened to hit the truth." Jia Jieyu, who was able to send the civet cat to the pregnant concubine, was silent. Of course, Lu Jieyu didn't want to fight Yun Fenghuang, she wanted to After thinking about it, he showed weakness and said, "As for the matter of Concubine Yun, I don't know anything from the beginning to the end, so how can I dare to gossip?"
Yun Fenghuang fluttered his round fan, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, he squinted at her when he heard the words, and said, "Oh, you dare not gossip? Then you guessed so accurately just now, I still think you know something but it's inconvenient to say it out, So I plan to give you a chance!"
Lu Jieyu was annoyed in her heart. Although she came from a humble background, she was adopted by the Marquis of Qingping since she was a child. She was also brought here by her slaves and maidservants. She felt that even if she couldn't compare with a serious lady like Empress Ji Yunshu, There is also a limit to being worse than Concubine Zheng, so what is Yunfenghuang?
But the situation at this moment... After thinking about it, I still continued to laugh: "Thank you sister for being considerate, my sister really doesn't know anything, but I will disappoint my sister."
"I don't know, just shut up honestly!" Yun Fenghuang's complexion changed suddenly, and he shouted, "Didn't you see that the empress is listening in person, and the two elder sisters, Concubine Shu and Concubine, are taking the long exam? Ben Gong and Sister Jia Anyway, it's the person involved, so it's fine to talk now, what kind of thing are you, you want to be strong enough for this kind of occasion? You can also guess at will, such a big matter involves my palace, sister Jia, and concubine Shu Elder sister, and even the Duke of Yi in the previous dynasty... what right do you have to speculate at will?! This Palace sees that you are just looking for trouble for nothing, deliberately disturbing the thoughts of the empress empress and the concubine concubine Shu!"
After speaking, he turned to Empress Ji and said, "Your Majesty, this concubine looks very suspicious to Mrs. Lu, so I have to investigate!"
"Mao Jieyu be careful!" Seeing this, Mrs. Yaoning, who belongs to the Regent's faction like Lu Jieyu, couldn't sit still. She first glared at Lu Jieyu, as if she blamed her for rashly getting involved, and then turned cold Said, "We are all sisters in the palace, and younger sister Lu is also afraid of hurting the harmony between each other, so she reminded her that Mao Jieyu is so aggressive, is she too domineering? You must know..."
"What do you know?" Yun Fenghuang rolled her eyes at her and sneered, "If she is really afraid of hurting the peace of the palace, why don't she stand up and accept the crime herself, and then accept the punishment, the concubine and sister Jia will be fine Shake hands and make peace? How dare you talk about sisters even if you refuse to do such a small thing? I don’t have such sisters who just talk and don’t do anything!”
Empress Ji couldn't bear to see it now, and coughed dryly: "Lu Jieyu's words just now are indeed Meng Lang, if you don't have evidence, don't speak again. Mao Jieyu shouldn't be unreasonable, Lu Jieyu He is an old man in the palace, so it is clear why he is a man in the palace."
Lu Jieyu bit her lip and thanked the queen, feeling so embarrassed that she couldn't say anything.
But Yun Fenghuang still said: "Your Majesty, it is because Lu Jieyu is an old man in the palace that it is strange to act so recklessly..."
After being frowned by the queen, she curled her lips and stopped.
Mrs. Yao Ning's face sank like water, and she suddenly said: "Mao Jieyu keeps doubting this and that, but this palace doubts you very much! After all, since you entered the palace, when did you stop? It was like this when you were in Huzhu Palace, and now If you made yourself the master, something went wrong with your foot, the most suspicious thing is not who are you?!"
"The lady thinks what is this concubine doing?" Yun Fenghuang glanced at her with a smile on his face, pointing at Jia Jieyu, "Sister Jia."
He also pointed to Yi Xing'en and the others, "Zhu Cainu."
Finally put down the round fan, Shi Shiran pounced, "If the concubine doesn't like them, do I need to go around and borrow the joy of the imperial concubine to make a fuss? So what if the concubine just cleans them up?"
What he said was arrogant and arrogant, and someone else would have been dealt with by the palace rules long ago, but Empress Ji just said lightly at this moment: "Mao Jieyu must not be rude."
When Yun Fenghuang confessed his guilt meaningfully, he said, "Forget it, I think you are young, let's not care about it this time."
The cooperation was so quick that the others couldn't get in the way at all, and they were clearly conniving.
"Actually, I think Concubine Yun is very suspicious." At this time, a voice suddenly came from the concubine below, with a little timidity, but the voice was not low.
The concubines looked over at once, and then they were slightly taken aback. This person looks beautiful, and he looks a little bit charming, but his attire is elegant and elegant, which is gorgeous but not vulgar, seductive but not flattering. It was Xue Xiaoge who was previously a popular candidate for the new position, but was stuck in the concubine position with Yun Qingman.
Xue Xiaoge is Ji Muzi's mother's cousin. After entering the palace, she has been living with her cousin in Surong Palace, and has a very good relationship. After the summer banquet, Ji Muzi was relegated from Zhaoyuan to concubine for "murdering" Yun Fenghuang and causing difficulties for her heirs. Xu felt that she couldn't face it, and maybe she wanted to avoid the limelight. ,until now.
And although Xue Xiaoge would come to pay her respects with the other concubines of Surong Palace, she was very low-key... well, she hadn't been high-key before.
In short, whether it is Yun Fenghuang or others, they have forgotten Surong Palace recently.
Now that she stood up, she clearly suspected Yun Qingman, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Since Mao Jieyu entered the palace, she has been favored by His Majesty. This is something that everyone in the six palaces knows." Not flustered, he talked eloquently, "Before the selection of Xuanqing Palace, there was only Mao Jieyu as the main seat, and Yun Concubine, who was invited by Mao Jieyu and allowed by the empress, moved from Tongxia Palace. At that time, His Majesty When I went to Xuanqing Palace, I always stayed at Mao Jieyu's place, never went to Yun Concubine's place."
"Now there are newcomers in Xuanqing Palace, no matter if it's Yicai, Qucai, or other Cainu, they are all young and beautiful."
"May I ask Concubine Yun how to attract His Majesty's attention?"
"Even though Mao Jieyu and Yun Bin love each other as sisters and take good care of her, everyone knows that Yun Concubine is the daughter of Lord Yi, but Mao Jieyu is just a daughter of the Yun clan. Before entering the palace, Yun Concubine had a higher status than Mao Jieyu, after entering the palace, Mao Jieyu quickly surpassed Concubine Yun. Now Concubine Yun is even living under Mao Jieyu's hand. As a noble girl, Concubine Yun couldn't accept it, she was confused for a while, and made... "
Concubine Shu couldn't bear it anymore and stopped her: "Shut up! Mrs. Xue, do you think my family style of Mrs. Yun is similar to your Mrs. Xue?! If Concubine Yun is going to be jealous, it is possible that Concubine Shu in this palace is not as good as Mao Jieyu. Jealousy?! However, these days when Concubine Yun is in Tongxia Palace, there has never been any trouble in Tongxia Palace!"
Xue Xiaoge smiled: "Concubine Shu has been serving His Majesty for a long time, and she is the sister of Concubine Yun, how can Mao Jieyu compare?"
The implication is that your Concubine Shu has deep qualifications and means, and she is different from Concubine Yun. She has neither the ability nor the courage to do things in your palace, but Yun Fenghuang is different.
Without waiting for Concubine Shu to say anything, she continued, "Furthermore, the paws of Huanxi'er and the face cream used by the Cai girls of Xuanqing Palace were found in the lotus... Those face creams were all rewards from Concubine Yun to the pick girls. The most suspicious thing is Concubine Yun. If Concubine Shu thinks that Concubine Yun was wronged, then who in Xuanqing Palace can wrong Concubine Yun? Mao Jieyu? What Mao Jieyu said just now is right, if Mao Jieyu Why is it so complicated to target Jia Jieyu and Zhu Cainu?"
"It's not Mao Jieyu, who is that? Zhucai girls? Ladies and gentlemen, do you believe this? These Cai girls came from humble backgrounds, and it's only been a dozen hours since they formally entered the harem. I'm afraid Mao Jieyu didn't bring them the way to Yanfu Palace." I don’t even know each other! How could such a thing be done!”
"Jia Jieyu? Jia Jieyu might be able to play tricks on Huanxi'er, but how did you put the mustard in the face cream that was rewarded to Cai Nu by Concubine Yun?! Mao Jieyu was just talking out of anger!"
Speaking of which, she was thoughtful, "Oh, by the way, Concubine Yun has not been in the palace for a long time, and she never likes to go around. Where did she get the face cream of fennel?"
Concubine Shu was about to get violent when she said this, took a deep breath, and said coldly: "Concubine Xue, are you doubting me?!"
Xue Xiaoge was about to speak when someone came in to report that Emperor Chunjia had come.
