Chapter 189: Incense Ember Firefly Sac

Yun Fenghuang returned to Huanhua Hall in a bad mood, but saw that the hall was brightly lit.

Chunjia was wearing a vermilion uniform, without a crown, only a suet jade inlaid with red gold bamboo knot hairpin was inserted horizontally, a jade belt was tied around his waist, and a pearl was hanging on his robe. He was sitting on the soft couch at the top, holding a vermilion pen , Correcting and revising the memorial in front of him, frowning deeply from time to time, concentrating on it.

Next to him, Yan Yin waited for the servants in front of the imperial court to serve him lightly. When Yun Fenghuang came in, he reminded him in a low voice.

"When did Your Majesty come here?" Yun Fenghuang took off his cloak in surprise, handed it to Zhu E, and said, "This place is small, don't you feel uncomfortable changing the memorial like this?"

Chunjia didn't answer right away, looked around, waited for everyone to retreat, and then said: "The matter is over?"

"...The Empress Dowager said that this time it's fine." Yun Fenghuang pursed his lips, walked over and sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a sip slowly, "We'll talk about it later... let's talk about it later."

Her tone was a little tired, Chunjia was silent for a while, and said slowly: "You... have sold me for a good price."

His words were lukewarm, and he couldn't tell if he was really angry.

Yun Fenghuang kept drinking tea, for a while, Fang moved, and said: "I just think...that is your most respected empress dowager, and there is really no other way."

Chunjia snorted lightly: "Is there no other way to save that person?"

"Your Majesty also agrees with my concubine to kill Qi Jiulu? It's actually not difficult to do, but what about after that?" Yun Fenghuang asked, "After that, the Northern Army will be willing to give up? Will the Regent pretend to be deaf? Minxin... If Your Majesty doesn't care, I will go and take care of it for you right away, okay?"

"You also know that it is impossible for me to let you really do something to Qi Jiulu." Chunjia said lightly, "Then you can't pretend to let me stop you halfway? Wouldn't you be able to do business for your mother?"

But Yun Fenghuang didn't, so it was hard not to let Chunjia suspect that she wouldn't even pretend to kill Qi Jiulu.

Yun Fenghuang looked directly at his face, and said word by word: "Of course I can put on a show and wait for you to stop me, but in that case, what will you think of me in the future? In order to win the Queen Mother's forgiveness, to keep With my glory and wealth in the palace, I can wantonly kill innocent people... Don't you think so?"

"Even if the concubine has passed the test of the empress dowager, the test in your heart, can you pass it?"

"If I can't pass your test, if my concubine wins the favor of the Empress Dowager, she will be the next Yuan Niangniang."

"One Yuan Niangniang in this palace is enough, I never thought of being the second one!"

Chunjia also looked at her, and said slowly: "When you come into the palace, how many people are affected? If I really are the kind of person who can't rub their eyes, do you think you can still be here?"

"How can this be the same?" Yun Fenghuang snorted and laughed, "It's just a normal fight between concubines. After all, there is only one Your Majesty. Who wouldn't want you to hurt yourself more? Of course it's up to each person. If you don't have that ability, just be honest." Really curl up and don't end up, since you're mixed up, you're willing to gamble and lose, right? But Qi's son is different, you know, he has no malice towards the concubine."

"If the concubine can sacrifice even him, Your Majesty, will you rest assured of the concubine in the future?"

Chunjia narrowed her eyes, and then sneered after a while: "No malice? No malice, knowing that I am powerless against the family, but still wanting to hold you to death?! Are you fleeing to the end of the world?! Without malice, you married someone else and still miss you and trap you in injustice?! Without malice, you know you have entered the palace and you will never forget it, putting you, yourself, and the families on both sides in danger?!"

He said lightly, "Four years ago, you could still say that he was young and ignorant, but now that he is a father, he still can't tell the seriousness? It's no wonder that your affairs with him are brought up every now and then. , if he respectfully stays away from you early in the morning and lives his life honestly, even if someone wants to make a fuss, they are just catching rumors, so what can be done?"

"..." Yun Fenghuang pursed her lips tightly, she was a little dizzy for a while, and after a while, she opened her mouth, "...If His Majesty were him, what would you do in that situation and at that age? What would you do? Do?"

Chunjia said calmly: "If it's my love, I will naturally have to convince the family."

Yun Fenghuang said: "Maybe you didn't know that you had exhausted everything at that time."

"That's the wrong way to say it." Chunjia said, "Although I don't know the details, I can guess that Qi Jiulu was nothing more than telling his family the disadvantages of treachery, the disadvantages of falling into trouble, and his friendship for you... ...The marriage contract between the two of you was originally concluded for the sake of the family, if he didn't think it would be detrimental to the family's future, how could Patriarch Qi agree to regret the marriage?"

"As for his friendship with you, what is it in front of the family?"

"Of course it's useless for him to say that."

"He should tell his family that there are no clans in the north, and he may be regarded as an outcast if he obeys any one. It is tantamount to Tai Ah's backlash! Therefore, today because of Xie Fenghuan's incident, he broke with the Xie family. Tomorrow it will be the Qi family's turn to encounter unexpected disasters, so they will be abandoned in their hometown? This head cannot be opened, once it is opened, there will be endless troubles!"

"Besides, you are the daughter of the Xie family. You have been cultivated by the family since childhood. You are young and beautiful, and you are good at the way of the rear house. It is unmatched by ordinary women. Once you are divorced, with the spirit of your mother and daughter, you will be willing to live in a place where you are not as good as you." Randomly find a husband-in-law on the lintel of the Qi family? Maybe you can try to get you into the noble family to serve the nobles, and then the Qi family will have an enemy for nothing, how unwise?"

Yun Fenghuang was silent. With these remarks, the former was to let Qi Jiulu show the vision and courage of a patriarch in front of the elders of the Qi family, while the latter was to reveal his plan for a rainy day while tactfully threatening.

If Qi Jiulu really said that at the time, and then the Xie family cooperated and secretly spread the rumor that once the engagement was terminated, they would simply send their daughter to the imperial capital for wealth—in fact, she did embark on the road to the imperial capital in the end—then Qi’s Will you change your mind?

"At that time, we were too young, and we didn't know the inside story behind these things." She sighed in her heart, and said, "We thought it was really just my sixth sister who ruined the family's reputation."

Chun Jia said: "Even so, since Qi Jiulu is the eldest son, of course his speech and behavior must proceed from the identity of the eldest son and consider the interests of the clan, at least the family must think that he does not agree to withdraw for the benefit of the clan. After all, that's what his elders wanted to hear at the time. He kept talking about his own emotions, who would care?"

Yun Fenghuang said in his heart that you don't feel pain in your waist when you are standing and talking now. I don't believe that you are much better than Qi Jiulu at Qi Jiulu's age and in such an environment-this is the difference in family status. His status as King of Fuyang, the teachers he hired, and the studies he studied were much better than those of Qi's and Xie's.

She didn't want to continue this topic: "Your Majesty is wise and mighty, how many people in this world can compare with you?"

"If I'm not wise enough, can I protect you until now?" Chunjia said lightly, "Forget it, my mother has exposed this matter, and I don't have the heart to continue fighting with you. But remember, this is my How many times have I not bothered with you?"

"Then what can the concubine do?" Yun Fenghuang asked back, "Before the concubine entered the palace, she was engaged to Qi Jiulu and then divorced. Room - Duke Yi knew that he still put his concubine into the list of ceremonies. The empress dowager didn't say anything, and the three empress dowagers at that time didn't say anything. As a result, they all became concubines day by day. No, if I can go back to the past and erase this section, wouldn't I be willing?"

"But I don't have this ability, what can I do?!"

She knew that Chunjia was not showing it on the surface at the moment, but she was actually aggrieved in her heart.

As the Son of Heaven, to pretend to be confused over and over again is to be very tolerant of her.

But Yun Fenghuang had no choice but to argue with him about right and wrong, because he acquiesced to what he said that he was sorry for him in this regard, and it was fine now, and it might become a thorn in the future.

This question must be clarified.

She is right!

At least Chun Jiade thinks that she is right!

Chunjia listened, turned her head slowly, looked at her, and her eyes gradually became sharper: "If you can, you are willing to erase the relationship with Qi Jiulu? If you really think so, you will feel guilty to him again and again. Protect?! Will you still miss him and feel deeply owed?! You know in your heart whether you are avoiding him or forgetting your old love!!!”

The emperor has always been calm, even though he has always had such thoughts in his heart, he has hardly spoken them out.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the hall seemed to freeze—but Yun Fenghuang refused to budge, looked straight at him, and asked without fear: "What about Your Majesty? Your Majesty and Mrs. Chunke were also childhood sweethearts. Big one, Mrs. Chun Ke is not considerate to His Majesty, but she has dragged His Majesty back!"

"Even indirectly murdered His Majesty's own flesh and blood, His Royal Highness King Qi!"

"How did His Majesty treat her in the end?!"

"Not only has she been promoted to my wife, but she has been honored and raised until now!"

"In this palace, from the former empress to the concubine to Luo Hanyi and Ouyang Fulu, everyone has a tacit agreement not to touch the Huzhu Palace when they are in charge!!!"

"Is it possible that the concubine can think that His Majesty has a difficult old relationship with Mrs. Chunke and never forgets it!?"

"Or you think that my concubine is just a mere concubine, and I don't deserve to be compared with you—"

She took a deep breath, tears streaming down her plain cheeks, and she said, "I don't know if Your Majesty thinks that a girl who grew up with her childhood sweetheart who may not be smart enough but has no bad intentions for her is as good as her." Being able to lay down murderous hands is also worthy of pampering. But as far as the concubine is concerned, if your majesty treats Mrs. Chunke as he treats the common man Sun, maybe standing on the position of concubine, he will feel happy for a while... After that, it will be hard not to Terrified."

"Because the concubine will be worried, one day the concubine will not be able to win over His Majesty's heart, will she also fall into the situation of Mrs. Chun Ke?"

Chunjia was silent for a long time, and said lightly: "You mean, you didn't do anything to Qi Jiulu, or was it because of me?"

"If I say that, would you believe it?" Yun Fenghuang smiled self-deprecatingly, "It should be more for me, after all, everything about me comes from you, without your trust and love What is a concubine?"

The emperor stared at her for a long time, then closed his eyes, and said in a low voice: "Since you know that you are planning for yourself, you should understand that if you stop, you will be disturbed."

Before Yun Fenghuang could reply, he said again, "Send Mrs. Li to the Huzhu Palace, and his heirs will be recorded under the name of the master of the Huzhu Palace!"

"...Yes." Yun Fenghuang was stunned for a while, and subconsciously agreed.

Then Chunjia got up, called in Yanyin and others, packed up the four treasures of the study, seals and seals, and went back to Taichu Palace.

After all, Huanhuadian is really not very suitable for dealing with government affairs, he is just worried and waits for Yun Fenghuang to come back here.

Yun Fenghuang sent him away restlessly, turned back to the hall, and suddenly thought that the emperor suddenly sent the Li family that he had agreed to give to Gu Zhen to Yuan Niangniang, maybe it was just to appease the Queen Mother Yuan, and it was not for nothing that he used this to break up with Yuan Niangniang intention.

The deep palace is silent, and for the rest of her life, Chunjia is unwilling to go with Yuan Niangniang again, and only sends one of her own blood to give the Qingmei who grew up together as comfort, and it can be regarded as an end to the grievances between the two.

And with such an emperor's heir under her knees, as Yuan Niang's reliance in her later years and the guarantee of Xingning Bofu, even the Empress Dowager Yuan, it would be difficult to match him and Yuan Niang.

After all, Chunjia has done her best.

Concubine Xian has mixed feelings in her heart, so the sentence "If you stop, you will suffer chaos" is not only a warning to her, but also about himself?

She walked out of the hall subconsciously and looked towards the direction of the Taichu Palace. Diagonally opposite the Taiye Pond, the lights were brilliant, showing the emperor's hard work.

But Chunjia, who is so industrious, spent a lot of time in Huanhua Palace just now.

In fact, Yun Fenghuang had long forgotten Yuan Niangniang, the former concubine Yue had been drawn out of her mind since she fell out of favor, after all there were still many people in the harem waiting for her to take care of her. She didn't have that much time to pay attention to a defeated player.

If she hadn't been forced by Queen Mother Yuan, she wouldn't drag Mrs. Chunke into the water again.

But Chunjia...is he serious?

Yun Fenghuang looked at the lights on the water in the dark night, his heart was ups and downs.

For a long time, she smiled at herself.

Turning around and going back to the inner hall, waving back to the left and right, I personally found a carved red sandalwood box inlaid with gemstones and jade, and opened it after a long time - the firefly sac made in a hurry by the brocade was a bit old, and the fireflies inside were already gone. All of them died in the summer when they were 100 years old, but a lot of them have been preserved to this day.

Yun Fenghuang looked at the firefly bag seriously, with emotions in his eyes.

In the end, it and the corpses of those fireflies were thrown into the gilded Suanni Ganoderma lucidum incense burner not far away.

A furnace of heavy water is fragrant, and the silver pick is flicked lightly, and the originally distinct ashes are mixed together, leaving no trace.

Tears fell down her eyes suddenly, she couldn't tell whether she let go or relieved, she cried and cried, but she felt that since Xie Fenghuan's accident, she walked alone in the overwhelming snow, which was inexplicably certain.
