Chapter 234 Who Is Scarier?

The queen wanted to deal with it, but Yun Fenghuang did not forget Concubine Shu.

She thought about it carefully, and ordered Chen Jing to send a message to the Meng family: "Although Concubine Wan and Concubine Jing have been appeased, there is no real benefit to the Meng family and the Luo family, and after this incident, the two sides will inevitably form a grudge." Now that His Majesty is here, the empress’s son-in-law is still young, so that’s all. Once the tenth prince and the twelve princes grow up, they will be able to establish the East Palace. How can you and the other two live with themselves?”

"It's better to take advantage of His Majesty's recall of Uncle Zhao Wu and take a risky gamble to gain wealth and stability!"

"Ouyang Yanran, the Patriarch of the Ouyang Clan, was a family friend with the two families, advancing and retreating together, but since becoming His Majesty's humerus, he has gradually alienated the Meng, Luo, and Yin families!"

"This time the empress and the Gu family are targeting the Meng family and the Luo family, and Ouyang Yanran has no intention of helping them! If this is the case, why should they watch and help each other? Why don't they try to squeeze them out and let the two patriarchs take Ouyang?" Wouldn't it be good for Yan Ran to assist His Majesty?"

The head of the Meng family was furious when he heard the words, and kicked out the servants who went to spread the message on the spot, claiming that everything he said about his grievances was true, not because of party disputes!

He dared to speculate on his intentions, openly instigated the friendship between important ministers, what an idiot!

He also claimed that if there are any more visitors, he will never tolerate it!

When the person who sent the message returned to Chen Jing, he was anxious: "...the servants followed what they said, but the surnamed Meng didn't know how to flatter. This..."

Chen Jing was also annoyed in her heart, and after a few words of comfort, she went to report to Yun Fenghuang.

Although he tried his best to be euphemistic in his words when he told the story, the meaning was not easy to distort, so he immediately drew a warning glance from the Qing people next to him: Who allows you to bring this kind of bad news to your empress now? !

Originally, Yun Fenghuang was in confinement, but the Qing people and other close attendants disapproved of her working hard at this time, thinking that she would at least have to be out of confinement before worrying.

But how could the imperial concubine agree?

She personally drank the oxytocin, took the risk of giving birth prematurely, and actively created the illusion of being murdered, which caused an uproar in the harem... In the end, she curled up in the palace and watched the inside and outside to calm it down. If she can't even achieve her goal, then why is she bothering about it?

As for saying that doing so might cause the root cause of the disease, Yun Fenghuang didn't take it seriously. She took the medicine to kill the concubine herself, and then soaked in the water for a long time because of the assassination, which made her miserable for several years. Get down and even get used to it?

Compared with the prosperity, wealth, power and status, what is a little sickness that can't kill you?

In other words, if you don't have an extraordinary family background, if you want to stand in her current position, if you want to have a higher status, how can you not make sacrifices and take risks?

Like Gu Zhen and his like, it seems that they can become a perfect wife without any hardships, but... this is also a good thing they have given birth to, and their elders have helped pay the price. For example, the title of Uncle Zhaowu is the reward of Gu Fangshu's many times of near-death and survival.

Yun Fenghuang didn't have such a powerful father, so he had to start from scratch.

"It's not urgent." Hearing Chen Jing's report in an increasingly low voice, she raised her eyebrows slightly, but she didn't get angry, she just said slowly, "Wait for two days and see what's going on with Brother Shiba. The Meng family and the Luo family are all well-off families for many years, and they have deep thoughts. They are not familiar with our people, and they come to talk about such a big thing rashly, how can they not suspect that it is fishing?"

"Ma'am, Meng's Luo family and Ouyang's family have been friends for many years." Chen Jing was a little suspicious, and whispered, "Maybe they really don't want to harm Ouyang's?"

Yun Fenghuang sneered, and said: "You don't come from a rich family, you don't understand! Although my Xie family can't compare with these high-ranking families, I can be regarded as a powerful party in my hometown! Getting along with other powerful people in my hometown, how can I get along with these powerful people? The reason for getting along between high-ranking and wealthy families is generally the same. The so-called friendship between generations is absolutely impossible without long-term common interests! Watching and helping each other, I am afraid that they have been defeated by the Ji family long ago, and the family name is gone! So at that time, the help and support of the Ouyang family from the Meng family, the Luo family, and the Yin family cannot be regarded as evidence of their deep friendship."

"If there is really a deep bond between them, did Concubine Shu die when Concubine Jing and Concubine Wan were framed by the Empress?"

"Above the temple, that old man Ouyang Yanran did not say anything for the Meng family and the Luo family and the second concubine, did he?"

"This..." the Qing people pondered, "Ouyang Yanran is indeed cold, and it is reasonable for the Meng family and the Luo family to be cold-hearted..."

Yun Fenghuang shook his head and said: "Ouyang Yanran is not entirely cold, it is also because he is really not easy to say such a thing. After all, he is now His Majesty's trusted minister, and His Majesty sent him out of the remote place where Ji's family relegated him. He was called back to the court, entrusted with a heavy responsibility, and very close... This is something that is well known in the world. So how can Ouyang Yanran not be loyal to His Majesty?"

Since she wanted to show her loyalty to the emperor, Ouyang Yanran couldn't bear to have close contacts with famous families like the Meng family, the Luo family, and the Yin family.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be suspected of making friends and cultivating one's own power to seize power?

Even after two years, Ouyang Yanran will still find trouble with the Meng family and the Luo family to show that she is wholeheartedly committed to the emperor, and will never favoritism because of the care these few families took for her family in the past.

"Mother, even if the Meng family and the Luo family know this truth, they will still be chilled?" Qing people said, "No matter what they thought about supporting and taking care of Ouyang family at the beginning, at least they really helped Ouyang family. As a result, after Ouyang Yanran came back But you only care about yourself, this?"

Normal people can't stand it.

Yun Fenghuang said: "This kind of Zanying family has a clear understanding of the door. When His Majesty called Ouyang Yanran back to the court and regarded him as a minister, they should have known it well. But no matter whether they really resented Ouyang's Fake resentment, this time will take advantage of the situation to oppose the Ouyang family. Don't forget that the loving mother Empress Dowager chose four daughters of the Meng family, the Luo family, the Yin family, and the Ouyang family to serve in the palace for her majesty. At the same time, the previous dynasty used four to control the Ji family. But now, only Ouyang Yanran and Yin Qu are reused by His Majesty! The Meng family and the Luo family have been silent for a long time, how could they be willing to stay on top of each other?"

"And why does Your Majesty not reuse the Meng family and Luo family?"

"It's nothing more than worrying that entrusting these four families with important tasks at the same time will cause a big tail."

"So if these two families still want to make a difference... it's almost time to have a quarrel with Ouyang and Yin."

The famous families who have been friends for generations and have been kind to the Ouyang family cannot be reused at the same time, but the famous families who have grievances and grievances with each other and even tear each other down can be used!

As long as the Meng family and the Luo family are not pure-hearted and ascetic, and don't care about their family standing aside in Chunjia Dynasty, it is impossible not to be indifferent!

"Since that's the case, why does the empress send someone to guide her?" Chen Jing asked in a low voice, "Even if His Majesty won't blame the empress for this, but..."

What he said later was just talk.

After all, before setting off, Yun Fenghuang had told her to keep a secret and not let Chunjia notice it.

That's why he couldn't figure it out, anyway, the Meng family and the Luo family would have trouble with the Ouyang family and the Yin family, why not sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, why would they end up in person?

"I don't send people to intervene, how can I know what method they will choose to make trouble?" Yun Fenghuang squinted at him, and taught, "This kind of big family is also a veteran in acting in front of the king, and they won't use the harem to do it in their leisure time." The article. Because His Majesty is wise, he doesn’t care much about Concubine Shu, Concubine Jing, and Concubine Wan, and he doesn’t even care much about their children... Disputes between concubines will only annoy His Majesty, how to make His Majesty Don't worry? Besides, the East Palace hasn't been established yet, so if you rashly cause trouble in the harem, there may be suspicions of conspiracy! Only if this Palace raises it, they will follow suit against Concubine Shu!"

Chen Jing hurriedly flattered her a few words, and continued to ask for advice: "But if they follow the mother's wishes and deal with Concubine Shu, they will probably not hide what happened when we sent people over to mention something today. In that case, where is Your Majesty...?"

"So what if Your Majesty knows?" Yun Fenghuang looked indifferent, "This time, I was born prematurely and was murdered. I have suffered such a big crime. What's the problem with finding two scapegoats? It's just a Concubine Shu! Could it be possible that His Majesty would still do something to me for her sake?"

"But Concubine Shu's grandfather is..."

"Idiot!" Yun Fenghuang snorted softly, "You figured it out, what did I just say? Ouyang Yanran is indeed an important minister that His Majesty relies on now, but between him and His Majesty, who owes whom? It was His Majesty who called him back to the court to entrust him with a heavy duty. His Majesty has treated him with great kindness! He still hasn't repaid His Majesty much. Could it be that he still has to hold grudges for his granddaughter? The Ouyang family isn't just Concubine Shu's granddaughter. !"

The Qing people were on the side, and couldn't help but said: "Mother, since Ouyang Yanran doesn't care about Concubine Shu that much, should we change someone to give him a long memory?"

"Change someone, who? Change the eldest son of the Ouyang family? Not to mention whether I can do it, even if I can do it, what good will it do me?" Yun Fenghuang looked at her quite speechlessly, hating that iron can't make steel Said, "Your Majesty, you don't know what your majesty thinks of me? It's fine for me to toss in this palace, the former court... If he allows me to interfere with the former court, brother 21 will be forced to resign?! ​​So big Mrs. Xie, Brother Twenty-One has some qualifications, but he still can't bear it, if this palace can control the life and death of the eldest son of an important minister, do you think your majesty can let this palace be so relaxed?!"

At that time, even if Chunjia is still attached to her in his heart and still likes her, it is necessary to suppress and neglect her in action and words, lest the Xuanqing Palace get too popular and suppress the Zhonggong, making his plan to establish a reserve could not proceed smoothly. This is only on the surface. In private, the emperor will only watch her more tightly. In this way, the possibility of her letting her child sit in that seat is basically impossible.

How could Yun Fenghuang do such a thing, she said lightly: "Ouyang Yanran used to speak for me at the court meeting, but recently she suddenly changed her temper... I was thinking, this should be His Majesty's Meaning. Therefore, I need to teach him a lesson, but this lesson is not for him, but for others to let everyone know that I am still not easy to mess with! It is not to let His Majesty know how bad I am. What a mess!"

In front of Chunjia, she also planned to pretend to bear the humiliation after finally having a son, so that the emperor would love her even more.

At this time, when cooking for a concubine Shu, since Chunjia didn't care much about her concubine, she would probably acquiesce and pamper her.

But if he targeted the dignitaries of Ouyang's family, how could the emperor explain to her in a foolish way: the concubine is such a stingy character?

That night, the Patriarch of the Meng family really sent someone to Xie Xiaoyu for a secret discussion, and the next day Xie Xiaoyu went to visit Yunju and his wife in person.

After noon, Mrs. Xie, who entered the palace in a hurry, finally brought the words to Yun Fenghuang: "Patriarch Meng said that the servant who didn't know where to go yesterday was indeed sent by your empress. If you offend me, please forgive me..."

Yun Fenghuang smiled and said: "If this old screwdriver is high-sounding, we don't need to pay attention to it."

Mrs. Xie responded with some embarrassment, and Fang continued: "The head of the Meng family said that although the old head of the Ouyang family did not behave properly, they have been friends with the Ouyang family for many years. Just fight to death with Ouyang's family. Therefore, I can only be ashamed of my mother's kindness."

"This old thing." Yun Fenghuang was not surprised by this answer, he just said, "How dare you take Joe with me?"

She immediately turned her head and told the Qing people, "Go to Concubine De, Jia, Qu, and Yi to talk about it. I heard that the Empress found evidence that Concubine Wan and Concubine Jing murdered the palace. As for the empress who was wronged instead? The empress is magnanimous and can bear it, but I am narrow-minded! It's just that I am in confinement now, so I can't come forward to argue with Concubine Wan and Concubine Jing in person, and ask them if they are willing to replace Ben. Gong to come forward and have a good talk with these two?"

Seeing this, Mrs. Xie was surprised: "This... Your Majesty?"

"It's okay, aunt." Yun Fenghuang turned his head, smiled, and said indifferently, "You haven't been here for a long time, and the children miss you very much. Why don't you go out and talk to them for a while, Ben Gong estimates that this matter will also be very fast."

After all, she has said so, whether Concubine De and the others are willing or not, why not go out and find trouble for Concubine Wan and Concubine Jing on her behalf?

In this palace, offending Concubine Jing Wanfei and the natal family behind them, would it be as terrible as Yun Fenghuang to offend her?
