Chapter 63 Yuan Niangniang's Good Luck
The style of the Xinggong is completely different from the palace city of the Imperial Capital.
Because it is built on the mountain, the building follows the mountain, and the pavilions and pavilions are hidden among the verdant plants and trees. You can hear the fragrance of birds and flowers, and the sound of waterfalls and streams. It is majestic and majestic, but it has a bit more liveliness and vitality in the mountains.
Yunfenghuang's residence is in Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion, which is not far from Xingxintang where the emperor lived.
It is said to be a pavilion, but it is actually more like a water pavilion. Surrounded by water on three sides, the three-story pavilion is made into the shape of a painting boat, and the balcony like a deck is raised to the pool, as if it is about to break through the waves. This season is very lively on the water, the red and white stalks are blooming wildly from far and near, and after the wind blows, there is a burst of fragrance that permeates the nostrils and is indescribably refreshing and pleasant.
"This is really a good place." The imperial concubine came back after staying away for many days. A group of people in Wannian County had carried the empty imperial chariot to the palace. Xile Nianxuan waited for Yunfenghuang's servants Children are crowded at the door waiting.
Seeing the master, he hurriedly came up to greet him and serve him attentively.
This made Yun Fenghuang, who was quite unwelcome in the small town, feel much more comfortable. Sure enough, the servants should not be too stupid. If only Nian Xuan was the only one, let's see, if this guy doesn't immediately come up crying, "Hello, ma'am." Life is bitter", her name is written upside down!
Now that Xi Le and the others are with her, she finally stops crying, although she still looks distressed, she is not so disappointed, isn't she?
After entering the door, someone dismissed the palace man who carried the sedan chair, took the tea bowl, saw that it was hot jujube tea that was not suitable for this season, raised his eyebrows slightly, gave Xi Le an approving look, took a sip of the tea, and said, "Did you arrange it for me when you came here?"
"No." Xi Le and Nian Xuan said in unison, "The servant girls were originally imprisoned, but they were released half a day ago."
Nian Xuan said angrily: "And even the empress's boxes and cages were seized. Just now they said that they had brought them all, but the servant girl took a quick look and found that several boxes and cages had been moved, and the seals we put on were torn off. opened!"
High-ranking concubines carry a lot of luggage when they travel. In order to prevent people from messing with them on the way, there will be a special number of people checking the seals when packing. When they arrived at the place, they could only be unpacked and counted under the supervision of the maid in charge, which made Yun Fenghuang always be in charge of Nian Xuan.
She naturally wanted to report at this moment, "Because it was said that the empress was already on her way back to the palace, and the maidservants were busy packing up the place and hadn't checked carefully yet, but one of the boxes contained a string of South Sea pearls, and the maidservant remembered it clearly. , a total of one hundred and eight pearls the size of a thumb! But just about counted, there are only ninety-eight pearls left, and even the silk thread that strings the beads has been cut off a lot!"
"Have you hit my head?" Yun Fenghuang smiled, and ordered nonchalantly, "Chen Zhu, go and smash a few of the boxes, divide the contents you like, and throw away the ones you don't like." Go to the lotus pond next to it, and I will go to tell His Majesty about my grievances later."
Chen Zhu hurriedly came up to kneel to thank him, and flattered: "That screwdriver is so blind! I don't even look at the blessings of the empress, are they qualified to neglect?"
"These are all trivial things." Yun Fenghuang lazily said, "Ben Gong finally got out of trouble, and he didn't take a breath all the way. What happened these days, tell me one by one!"
Xi Le and the others were also anxious to let their master know the current situation, and hurriedly said: "A lot of things have happened in the past few days..."
Chunjia made a sudden move and took the government and the public by surprise with the help of the Zheng Fengzhe case. While further stabilizing her own position, the Ji family fell into an unprecedented crisis. This incident itself would cause shocks in the government and the public.
But at this time, the empress dowager was critically ill. The young emperor who had received the news and rushed over was assassinated halfway and fell off the cliff and disappeared. Originally, the country cannot live without a king. Under normal circumstances, the emperor disappeared. The hall was in turmoil, and the other worried that the emperor who was living outside would be taken advantage of and killed.
But when Chunjia and Deng Chengzhai decided to rush back to the palace to visit the empress dowager in light clothes, they had anticipated the unsafety on the way, and they actually ran into the assassin when they took a detour! Deng Chengzhai searched all night but couldn't find anyone, so how dare he hide it? !
Not only did he not hide it, but he also spread the news all over the world, for fear that people in the world would not know that the emperor left a large number of imperial troops on his way for the sake of the empress dowager, and was clearly forced off the cliff by assassins!
In this way, the court immediately broke out!
The Ji family was the most suspected regicide alongside the regent, not to mention that they were strangled to death, and the empress dowager could not get sick no matter what, so she took medicine as a meal and took a breath to preside over the overall situation.
And the loving mother empress dowager who was really ill in the palace city of the imperial capital, so that she didn't accompany her to escape the summer heat, and the holy mother empress dowager who had been following the loving mother empress dowager, both fainted after receiving the news, and it was life and death when they woke up. He refused to wait for news in the palace, and went to the foot of Qishan to find the emperor himself no matter what.
The loving mother, the Empress Dowager, even threw out loudly when the imperial physician dissuaded her on the grounds that her phoenix body violated harmony: "Even if the Ai family died on the way, the soul will have to find the emperor to go to the underworld with peace of mind!"
The harem has always been headed by Ji's aunts and nephews for three generations. Their natal family is trying their best to get rid of the charges of regicide. How dare they use force on the Empress Dowager Yuan and Empress Dowager Qu?
There was no other way, not only had they had to agree to leave the imperial city to find the emperor in person, but the Empress Dowager even sent Empress Ji to meet them on the way, to fulfill their responsibilities as sons and wives.
After all, all the mothers are sick and participate in the search, so the wives can't just stay in the palace?
Even if the Empress Dowager is ill, it will be enough to keep Empress Dowager Ji to serve her, right?
So Empress Ji braved the heat and rushed to meet the two empress dowagers on the way, and then escorted them straight to the palace... No way, Empress Dowager Qu is fine. How can filial piety throw people in the palace and not take them to Qishan? After such a bumpy ride, she was already dying when she met Empress Ji.
Although Ji Shi didn't dare to force the two of them at this moment, she didn't dare to let them have any troubles.
Otherwise, if Chunjia just disappeared, her adoptive mother and biological mother would have something to do, and even the empress dowager would not be able to hold on to the situation.
Therefore, he was forced to take him to the palace for treatment—in order to dissuade the two empress dowagers from going to the town to search in person, Empress Ji took her to the small town to show her intentions.
"When the empress left, I arranged for the concubine Shu to stay in the palace to take care of the empress dowager, the three empress dowagers, the noble concubine, and Yue Jieyu." The empress didn't know how to do it, but she personally knocked the imperial concubine empress off the high platform, and she had a miscarriage on the spot!"
Yun Fenghuang said: "Then Concubine Shu is now?"
"The imperial concubine has been crying for two days and two nights, and the general of the hussars has also knelt outside the palace for two days. The empress dowager has no choice but to call the female family members of the Zheng family into the palace to comfort the imperial concubine." Xi Le said, "Go out again in person. After seeing the Hussar General, I sent him away. I didn't care about the rest... After all, His Majesty hadn't come back at that time, and everyone was concerned about His Majesty."
Concubine Yun Fenghuang Xindao chose such a good time, after all, the life and death of the emperor was uncertain, and the heir in her stomach was more urgent than usual. At this moment, there is a sudden miscarriage, who can not feel a numbness in the front and rear palace, and have many associations?
She took a sip of tea and said, "What about Concubine Shu?"
"It was locked up by the Imperial City Secretary. It is said that the empress dowager rewarded the imperial staff on the day of the accident, and it is still locked up now." Xi Le said, "Yi Guogong's family also knelt outside the palace for two days to plead guilty, Mrs. The Empress Dowager ignored them and said that everything will be discussed after His Majesty returns."
"Really?" Yun Fenghuang smiled and said, "I knew I would have raised the curtain at the door to take a look when I came back."
Xi Le pursed her lips and smiled: "I can't see that either. After learning that His Majesty came back, the Empress Dowager sent someone to drive them outside, saying that the matter of His Majesty's assassination has not been clarified, and that no one else is allowed to stay outside the palace." !"
Yun Fenghuang didn't have much thought to make fun of Mrs. Yun at the moment, so he asked Yuan Niangniang: "Just now I see that she is very energetic?"
"...Maybe I have been by the loving mother's empress dowager these days, so I have to be enlightened by her benevolent empress dowager?" Xi Le opened his mouth, euphemistically expressing that it's not that the concubines are not up to date, but that the empress dowager Yuan came to the palace in person because of the emperor's disappearance. , she came, and Yuan Niangniang took refuge under the wing of this aunt and mother-in-law as a matter of course.
If it was before, people like Empress Ji, Zheng Guifei, Concubine Yun Shu, and Mrs. Yaoning might not be afraid of these aunts and nephews.
But when the emperor disappeared and all the grass and trees were full of suspicions, the Ji family did not dare to let the Empress Dowager Yuan, who was close to the emperor, make any mistakes—then even Yuan Lianniang, who was guarding in front of the Empress Dowager Yuan, would not dare to make mistakes. Don't dare to do anything, and even want to protect her in turn!
after all……
What if the Empress Dowager Yuan, who was already sick, was in a hurry to hear the bad news of her niece, mother and child before she was sure about the emperor's safety?
It's no wonder that Yuan Niangniang is not only safe and sound for a long time, but even looks better...
Cooperating with the emperor who lived and died several times under the cliff, he indirectly saved the life of this lowly servant girl? !
Yun Fenghuang's face was sullen, he almost vomited blood, he was silent for a long time, then he sneered and said: "Forget it, is the imperial doctor outside? Tell him to come in."
There is no way, the matter has come to this point, no matter how much you curse and curse, it will not help, you can only accept this cruel fact, and find another way.
So first of all, you have to take good care of your body, lest you will be powerless in the future, and you will not have the energy to fight, that would be terrible.
The imperial physician sent by the emperor was the one who had diagnosed her on the emperor's chariot. Yun Fenghuang had just lost his temper before and didn't look at him at all, but now he was interested in asking a few questions.
The imperial physician called himself surnamed Kui Mingshidu. He entered the Imperial Hospital during the time of Emperor Shenzong and served Emperor Xiaozong. After Xiaozong died, he always took the pulse of the Empress Dowager. This time the empress dowager felt sorry for the emperor, so she sent him to go to the small town with the empress to wait, and if it wasn't for the emperor's order, he would not have come to Jieyu to obey orders - of course Kai Shidu didn't say this clearly, but in the words The implied implication is that he should be let go after the prescription is finished.
Seeing this, Yun Fenghuang sneered slightly, since the imperial doctor was in front of the Empress Dowager, she might not feel relieved, she didn't want to stay longer, so could it be possible to force her to stay?
However, before Kai Shidu resigned, five groups of people followed from Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion.
On behalf of the Empress Dowager, Empress Ji, Empress Yuan, Empress Qu, and Empress Ji, they came to reward Yun Fenghuang for his meritorious service in saving him.
Empress Ji sent the most people here, because she also tied up five or six palace servants who looked panic-stricken, saying that they were found to have stolen the treasures of the Xuanqing Palace, and they were specially sent to Yunfenghuang for disposal.
"Tell them I just drank the medicine and fell asleep." In addition to pretending to be weak in front of the people sent by the empress dowager, Yun Fenghuang got the other party's "Mother, hurry up and rest, the empress dowager specially told the servants" Let me tell you the advice of "good health and recuperation", and immediately go back to the inner room to dodge lazily.
Let Xi Le and Nian Xuan deal with it outside.
Until everyone left, only those who were tied up remained, Xi Le went inside and asked for instructions: "My lady, what should I do with these people?"
"Let's kill them all." Yun Fenghuang rested his chin, and said lazily, "Anyway, Liugong knows that this palace is not such a gentle and virtuous master who is easy to fool like Concubine Shu, so I can't hold back my air and pretend to be tolerant... ...Also, even though someone sent it here, there must be a lot of my things! You can let Liu Hong go to the empress's side later, so as to spread the meaning of this palace. I am not as good as the empress, but I can't do anything to this palace. The loss of the Wanguan family property is indifferent!"
Unless the queen is crazy, it is impossible to make up for her Wanguan's family property, but why should there be some blood, right?
She just felt that the softness gathered when she first entered the palace was too old and wanted to replace it with a new one!
Xi Le pursed her lips and smiled: "Yes!"
As a result, several palace officials were being gagged and beaten, but at this moment Chunjia came.
