Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

Vol 5 Chapter 241: The truth (1)

Yun Fenghuang instinctively stepped aside, but only halfway through, she had such a momentary stiffness that abruptly stopped this movement.

"Snapped!"

This movement was not the Empress Dowager’s palm slapped on the face of the Empress, but Empress Yuan, who was half a step behind the Empress Dowager, suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the Empress Dowager’s wrist, forcing the Empress Dowager’s arm to stop. Mid-air.

Everyone was stunned by the scene of this rabbit rising and falling.

Yun Fenghuang was also stunned.

But the most surprised was the Empress Dowager. She subconsciously made a profit, and found that the Empress Yuan was holding it very tightly, and she was sincerely not letting her go.

"Are you crazy too?" The empress dowager laughed in anger, "Should you continue to pretend to be your loving mother at this moment? It's just that you can pretend to be the emperor, what pretend to be to this cheap maid!?"

Empress Yuan did not look at her, her eyes fixed on Yun Fenghuang’s face, tears criss-crossed, and she said word by word: “I’m not crazy when I go back to the words of the empress dowager! It’s just that the emperor killed my life. Don’t even want to save her... Now that you hit her in the face, don’t you still have to hurt the emperor’s heart when you look back? Please read it to the emperor in my life, just for the emperor’s sake, don’t you This little Yun must be punished."

She raised her sleeves and covered her mouth, crying out, "If the queen mother wants to fight, just hit me. I always have no choice but to raise the **** Gong Xiangji!!! I would have known today, I would rather die alone. , In the ancestral hall of the Fuyang King’s line, stay on for life!!!"

The empress dowager was stunned, and immediately, the whole person was like a deflated ball, weakening at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if she was a teenager in a moment, she swayed and slowly retracted her arm, what I didn't say anything, and I didn't look at the Queen or the Empress Dowager anymore, only staggered towards Jiang Lan and asked about the emperor.

Empress Dowager Yuan did not look at Yun Fenghuang again, and followed the Empress Dowager, holding her breath, listening carefully to Jiang Lan's report.

Yun Fenghuang stood on the spot, intact, but his wide sleeves hanging down on the ground couldn't help trembling.

"Niang..." The attendant whispered in a worried voice, but Yun Fenghuang's eyes were red, and the tears that had just dried up came out again.

After listening to Jiang Lan's report, the Empress Dowager and Yuan Yuan were silent for a while, and the Queen Mother Yuan dumbed her throat and made the same request as Yun Fenghuang Shicai. She wanted to go inside and take a look at Chunjia's situation in person, so that she could feel relieved.

Having said this, she hesitated, turned her head to look at the empress dowager, and whispered: "Do you... want to be together?"

"I won't go to the mourning house." The empress dowager looked at the room leading to the inner room and was silent for a moment, but she shook her head and said lightly, "The queen has obviously gone in, and she can stand there calmly, she must be fine. But after all, this is the child you raised with your own hands. Don't worry, just go if you want."

The Queen Mother Yuan blessed her and was supported by Jiang Lan, staggering in.

After seeing her in, the Queen Mother looked down and thought for a moment, then suddenly said: "You come with Ai's family!"

After that, he flicked his sleeves and walked out first.

Yun Fenghuang was shocked before realizing that he had said this to her.

She hesitated, and the attendant on her side subconsciously wanted to stop: "Manny, you just said that you are not at ease, your Majesty, you have to wait here."

This is because she is afraid that she will go outside with the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager will do it again.

However, Yun Fenghuang briefly considered it, and still followed.

The Empress Dowager had hardly come to Xinxintang in this dynasty, but she was obviously not unfamiliar with this place, turning left and right on the winding corridor with Yun Fenghuang, and soon reached a secluded waterside pavilion.

The man in the palace was guarding outside, and only Yun Fenghuang was allowed to enter.

"..." Yun Fenghuang walked in and saw the Empress Dowager standing in front of the window facing the water with the window lattice, her expression indifferent, she stepped forward and said nothing.

After a while, the empress dowager asked in a cold voice, "What do you think?"

"The grand-daughter-in-law does not understand what the emperor grandmother means."

The Empress Dowager said coldly: "What else can it be now?"

"..." Yun Fenghuang said silently, "My grand-daughter-in-law is in a state of confusion now, and I don't know what to say. But if I say the most, it's probably an accident."

"Accident?" The Empress Dowager sneered and turned around. She is old and now sick again, and there is not much time. She was supposed to be resting on a bed, but now she stood up on her own and got overdrawn. Below, there was a dying weakness in the whole person.

But under the anger, a pair of eyes are shining.

auzw.com like a knife on Yun Fenghuang's body, he scrabbled up and down, but he said in a flat manner, "This is actually quite honest."

Yun Fenghuang didn't speak, she was really confused.

The Empress Dowager said again: "But what's the surprise of you? The emperor favors you for a day or two. Over the years, what you have done in the front harem, what you have done to the successor to the emperor, to the king of Chongxin, to the crown prince and concubine Even if he doesn’t know what he’s doing, isn’t there a rough estimate yet? He still keeps one eye open, knowing that your existence will inevitably lead to royal civil turmoil. With his attention to the world, but I haven't picked you up... Doesn't this mean that he's fainted?!"

"Grandmother, what is grand daughter-in-law?" Yun Fenghuang smiled bitterly. "When your majesty likes it, grace is added. If your majesty doesn't like it, the backhand can be destroyed. In this case, as long as your majesty doesn't want to, can granddaughter-in-law really be able to Killed the royal family?"

The empress dowager stared at her quietly, and for a moment, she suddenly curled her lips, revealing a bleak smile: "It's really like."

Yun Fenghuang couldn't understand his meaning, showing doubts.

The empress dowager didn't let her guess, and said slowly: "You really look like when the Ai family was young."

"Grandson-in-law is terrified." Yun Fenghuang gradually recovered a bit, the empress dowager...her relationship with Chunjia, is it strange to stand up for Chunjia at this moment?

Shouldn't she sit in the mountains and watch tigers fight, even wishing the emperor was unlucky?

Why did Chunjia intend to slap her again, and call her alone to teach him?

The queen settled down and said, "The grandson's daughter-in-law has a humble background and is far less virtuous than the emperor grandmother. How dare you compare with the emperor grandmother when she was young?"

"You have taken care of yourself in advance, and you are suspicious and jealous. Listening to the wind is the rain trampling on others' sincere manners." The empress dowager said slowly what made her startled, "It's really like when the mourning family was young!"

Seeing Yun Fenghuang's eyes widened for an instant.

She smiled coldly, and pointed to a smoke-smelling building not far away: "Can't figure it out?"

Yun Fenghuang has vague guesses in his mind, but he always feels—how is it possible? !

She calmed down, forced herself to press down all the Baiwei Chen Za, thinking about it, trying to follow the thinking of the Queen Mother, shook her head and said: "I can't figure it out! Your Majesty is aware of Qiuhao's brilliant martial arts, and my grandson-in-law dare not say how virtuous and kind she is. But I think that, as a concubine, I will abide by my duties, be conscientious, and dare not slacken the slightest. If such a thing happened when your majesty had just taken office, I would still understand it. But now it has been Chunjia's twenty-three years, Xinggong, The Forbidden Army and Miyagi have been purged many times. Why does this happen?"

"Why is it impossible?" The Queen Mother said slowly, "You and the emperor are indeed both talents, but, in the end, you are young. The wisdom of the predecessors may not be as good as you, and they are the first to be strong, so how can you find the bottom line? , But young and ignorant, a lot of the past, long ago annihilated in the years, but where did you know? Whether the palace, the Miyagi or the forbidden army, how to investigate, how to clean up, after all, it is for people to do things, in this case, now this is the case What's so surprising about the situation?"

Yun Fenghuang looked at her: "But if the imperial grandmother had such a method early in the morning, why did you stay calm when the Ji family was destroyed, why after the Ji family was destroyed, why have you been at peace in the past ten years?"

By this time, if you still don't understand, today's chaos is inextricably related to the Empress Dowager, and she has been in vain for many years.

But instead of Yun Fenghuang's sudden realization, he was even more confused.

The empress dowager stared at her, and said lightly: "Do you know why the Laijia asked you to come here to speak today?"

"The grandson's daughter-in-law is dull." Yun Fenghuang was startled, but he was somewhat disrupted by the rhythm of her thoughts. He quickly stabilized his mind and shook his head.

"The reason is what the Ai Jia just said." The Empress Dowager said lightly, "You really look like when the Ai Jia was young."

She said, "You have been staring at Shanyuan Temple for a long time, and even when you didn’t know it, you burned Shanyuan Temple on fire... and you specifically searched for many old people from Sejong’s and Emperor Xian’s time for interrogation. In the past, I have some understanding and speculation. Today, you and I are more honest. Let Laijia first listen to what you have gained over the years?"

"..." Yun Fenghuang groaned and said, "The grandson's daughter-in-law will show her ugliness."

She soon talked about the speculation that she had negotiated with the Jiang family. It was the past grievances and hatreds of Shenzong, Queen Qu, Princess Shu, and Queen Mother, as well as those who suspected of losing fertility. Shenzong is also the Empress Dowager.

During this process, she carefully observed the expression of the Queen Mother and found that when she said other things, including suspecting that the Queen Mother was infertile, the Queen Mother was very calm.

Only when Empress Qu was mentioned, did the Empress Dowager show a sorrowful look.

Guessed it right?

Yun Fenghuang thought so in his heart, but saw the empress dowager looking at her with a complicated expression, but said: "You really look like the Aijia... When the Aijia was a teenager, the low-level servants of the Qu family were all because of their elders. Because of this, she often enters and exits Shanyuan Temple. The Qu family is not born in the Ai family, but the appearance is better than the Ai family. Her biological mother died early, and her stepmother has a lot of means, so the situation at home is not very good. The Qu family and the Ji family have obscure relatives. Therefore, the Ae family’s grandmother met her in Shanyuan Temple and took good care of her. She also told Ae’s family to take more care of her... The Ae’s family listened to her grandmother’s instructions and treated her as a sister. Therefore, not only is she quite familiar with the children of the Ji family, even when the Ai’s family meets the first emperor, she is also on the side..."

The Empress Dowager suddenly burst into tears when she said this, "So when the first emperor met her privately with Ai Jia, Ai Jia... was frightened and angered, besides being annoyed that she was stupid and led the wolf into the outdoors..."

She stopped suddenly, did not continue, but asked Yun Fenghuang, "If you were the mourner at the time, what would you do?"
