Vol 5 Chapter 221: the truth

When Yun Fenghuang received the news, he had just sent away Concubine De, but he didn't say anything. He asked Chunjia if he had no other advice, so he let the royal waiter go.
"Niangniang." The Qingren said softly as he watched the people coming out, "Your Majesty, what does this mean? Do you want the Niangniang to ask the Empress Dowager? But there is already such a posture, I'm afraid it's hard to say! "
"The King Mao smashed such a big basket. Your Majesty has to be busy with the aftermath at this moment." Yun Fenghuang sipped his tea and said calmly, "How many things are waiting for your Majesty to make up your mind in the past. Things in the harem, naturally I have to worry about it."
She thought for a while, and said, "Let's go to the emperor's grandmother first."
When I arrived at the residence of the Empress Dowager, I saw that the waiters who had been serving the Empress Dowager for many years were guarded strictly, just as if they were facing an enemy, a pot of kerosene was placed so brightly not far away.
Before Yun Fenghuang came forward, an elderly maidservant came up to stop him, lukewarmly persuading, "The empress dowager has already been placed, please don't disturb the empress dowager."
"What is this for?" Yun Fenghuang glanced around and said slowly, "I walked through the water in the palace, and you waited to act like this, but where did you put the emperor's grandmother in safety?"
The maidservant said in a deep voice, "There is empress Lao's empress! This action of the maids is the order of the empress dowager. The empress dowager is already in old age, and the empress and her majesty are requested to be filial."
Yun Fenghuang said indifferently: "This palace came here specifically because it was uneasy about the emperor's grandmother."
"The empress dowager needs to rest now," the maid said, "so it shouldn't be disturbed."
Yun Fenghuang entangled a few more words. Seeing her resolute attitude, she didn't break through, but said: "Nowadays, there is a lot of rumors outside that the emperor's grandmother is the wife of the ancestor of Shenzong, is there nothing to say?"
The maidservant said briefly: "The empress dowager is exhausted, and the maidservants dare not bother with these things."
"Absurd!" Yun Fenghuang scolded, "It's nothing more than other things, but now it involves the two emperors of Shenzong and Xiaozong, you dare to keep the emperor grandmother from such a big event? What is this?"
I ordered someone to take down the maidservant at the moment, "As long as the emperor grandmother knows that such a major event happened in the previous dynasty, for the sake of the names of the two emperors, there is definitely no question about it. !"
"Queen Empress!" The palace man frowned and shouted, "Queen Empress, please be careful! If the Queen Mother has an order, anyone who dares to step forward will light the kerosene!"
"It's simply ridiculous!" This attitude made the Royal Attendant retreat, but couldn't stop Yun Fenghuang, she said disapprovingly, "How can there be anyone in the world whose husband and son are slandered and indifferent? Especially the emperor's grandmother and Shenzong? The emperor and his wife are deeply affectionate and everyone knows! This time the emperor and grandmother especially came to the palace to cherish the memory of the emperor Shenzong, which shows the relationship between the two elders back then! Xiaozong is the only birth of the emperor Shenzong and the emperor grandmother. Heirs. The names behind these two were planted by clan relatives, so that the dignified ancestors became the laughing stock of the people of the world! The emperor grandmother still has a sigh of relief, and she must immediately come out to preside over the overall situation and refute those rumors that confuse right and wrong! "
"How could it be avoided, and let you wait to stop this palace?!"
Yun Fenghuang quickly came to the conclusion, "This must be because you lowly servants have already been bought by King Mao and other rebellious courtiers, so this is the intention!"
"Niang." Qing Ren said with the understanding of the cooperation, "The maids have not seen the Queen Mother in the past two days. How do you know what happened to the Queen Mother and her old man? Isn't it, they have been harmed by these lowly servants? "
"That's the truth." Yun Fenghuang yelled coldly, "King Mao was frantic. Before even assassinating King Zhou and his son outside the palace, what else can't be done? The life experience of Emperor Xiaozong and the regent, in this world, The one who knows the most is the emperor grandmother! As long as the emperor grandmother is in one day, their slander will not succeed. Now since they dare to deceive the people of the world, maybe they have already given the emperor grandmother to..."
Seeing that their master and servant sang, they directly beat the Empress Dowager to death, and the charges were on the head of King Mao. The people inside couldn't help it: a palace man in a cyan tunic hurried out, with a deep voice. Said: "Don't make trouble with the empress, the empress dowager please!"
Yun Fenghuang's attitude suddenly became kind, and if nothing had happened, he straightened his entire dress, and said with a pleasant tone, "Is the emperor grandmother okay with her elders?"
The palace man said indifferently: "If your majesty and empress can give the Queen Mother more peace, the Queen Mother will be even better."
"Look at what Auntie said." Yun Fenghuang said disapprovingly, "Why doesn't the imperial grandmother like the younger generations in this palace being crowded around? Whatever you like to be clean, it's all about the childless old people who try to comfort themselves. Yes. The Xie family from the palace is prosperous, and there are many elders, and the palace understands."
"..." The muscles on the human face of the palace twitched, and he was too lazy to talk with her, only making the gesture of inviting her in, "Please, mother!"
When the master and servant entered the inner room, he saw that the emperor was awake, leaning on the crypt in a daze, and looking at his expression, he was a little bit weaker than when he saw it last time.
Yun Fenghuang said in his heart, it seems that the matter of Shenzong's legacy has dealt a big blow to this man.
Therefore, it is even more proof that the edict is true.
"What's the matter?" The Empress Dowager glanced at her, her eyes were rather bored, and she spoke lightly.
"The royal grandmother said that her grandson-in-law shouldn't bother Shanyuan Temple." Yun Fenghuang was too lazy to go around in circles. After the salute, he chose a seat and sat down straight to the point. "Could it be because of the edict? But, how could it be here? In the hands of King Mao?"
auzw.com The Empress Dowager said coldly: "You are not very arrogant when you instruct people to burn Shanyuan Temple? Why can't you figure it out now?"
Yun Fenghuang said: "Please also ask the emperor's grandmother for advice."
"I want to go."
Yun Fenghuang didn’t get angry when she heard that, but she really started to think about it. She thought about it and said,
The grand-daughter-in-law was interested in Shanyuan Guan at first because she found out that you have given Shanyuan Guan’s support since the first emperor Shenzong reigned. Grant. Although this Taoist temple is rumored to be closely related to the royal family, in fact, you personally went to the temple and had close contacts with it. It was a matter of Sejong's time. After Shenzong became the throne, you have not been there twice. When it came to Xiaozong, You don't even ask about world affairs, but Ji Sheng, a commoner, went there many times under the banner of begging for a child."
"But your generous gift has never stopped."
"The concubine is thinking that even if you have a distinguished status and don't care about such things, you can't commit such a person who has been raising the view for many years to eat plain rice?"
"Can't help but be curious."
"So I found some old people who came down when Sejong from the palace asked about one or two."
At this point, she carefully observed the expression of the Empress Dowager.
It's just that the empress dowager didn't have any expressions on her face, she just listened plainly.
He even urged: "Go on."
"...The emperor's grandmother is exhausted, so grand-daughter-in-law won’t repeat." Yun Fenghuang thought for a while, and said, "You and the first emperor Shenzong used Shanyuan View to calculate the last successor of Sejong, which is Queen Qu, right?"
The empress dowager just sneered and did not speak.
Yun Fenghuang didn’t care, and said,
It’s just that in this calculation process, you two have also lost the handle. Earlier, your grandson and daughter-in-law couldn’t figure out what the secret was. You have spent so many years silently. The silver seal. Now it seems that it should be the edict in the hands of King Mao."
The empress dowager was noncommittal, but instead asked: "Do you regret it?"
"Why does my granddaughter-in-law regret it?" Yun Fenghuang smiled, "This kind of thing about Chen Zhizhi and rotten corn is neither caused by his grandson-in-law, nor is it that his majesty can't settle it. Now that he knows the ins and outs, he has also solved it. The doubts that many clan relatives have encountered over the years are better than silly? To blame, you can only blame your old man for failing to restrain her natal family, so that the Emperor Shenzong was not at ease at all. He still left a legacy to restrain him, so that it is now given to you. Your Majesty, bring so much trouble to the royal family!"
"You are still as sharp as you always have." The Empress Dowager said lightly, "Since you think this is not a big deal, what do you have to come to see Lai's family for?"
Yun Fenghuang said: "Naturally because it was a matter of many years ago, after all, it has generally gone through, and now it can be inferred. Many details still need your elders to clarify."
She smiled and said, "For example, the death of Yushan County lord...This is really hard to understand. The Emperor Shenzong could even tolerate the birth of two sons by the regent, and he still holds the throne and the marquis status so far. Why? Can't tolerate a princess?"
"Because it's unnecessary." The Queen Mother gave her a glance, and actually answered, "The King Yi and Yongchunhou can't threaten the emperor's throne. Their existence can prove that the emperor has a tolerant capacity, and to a certain extent. Go up, assist the present. At least until the princes grow up, the emperor needs their assistance very much. These two are useful, as long as they don’t reproduce and give two titles, it’s okay."
"But Xiaozong's three daughters are somewhat under the emperor's control."
"If their declining husband's family is helpful to the emperor, and their hearts are toward Chunjia, they will be kept. As you said, the first emperor is not a mediocre person, and the canonization of a princess and princess does not matter to outsiders. , It's just a girl after all."
"But Yun'an's husband's family was useless to the emperor at that time, so why let his descendants steal wealth?"
Yun Fenghuang was stunned, and said, "Then why are the youngest sons of Jinxi and Yunan still alive? And there are so many children under Minghui's knees, and they didn't die?"
The empress dowager said indifferently: "Because Ai Jia stopped it."
She said faintly, "Who can be ruthless than the grass and trees, the three girls, especially Minghui, are somehow grown up by the Ai family. The Ai family is not ruthless with Yi Wang, let alone them?"
After a pause, she seemed to remember something, and then said, "Oh, yes, Yushan's death is also due to Yun'an's dishonesty. She had a private relationship with Ji Minggan, and she really thought that people like Laijia didn't Know? After Yushan went, she suffered a serious illness and said she was griefing for her daughter. Is it because of this, or is she knowingly and frightened, probably only she knows."
The Empress Dowager calmly said, "Among the three girls, Minghui confessed the most directly, and Ai Jia also liked her the most, so she played a little bit more foolishly, and Ai Jia had to bear it."
"Yun An is the most cautious, and Ai Jia doesn't really have that much patience for her."
"Speaking of Minghui." Yun Fenghuang asked, raising his eyebrows, "Dare to ask the emperor grandmother, why did Ji Sheng, the commoner, hide Minghui's true appearance?"
