Chapter 540 The Empress Who Died in Depression (5)

It's just that Cui Xiangyi's faction is gaining momentum now, and they don't take the royalists' overtures to heart.

The royalist faction had always been on the Queen's side before, but now they want to fall to Cui Sang's faction, it depends on whether Cui Sang's faction is willing to accept it.

It can be said that the court and China are now divided into four parts. Cui Guifei's father Cui Xiang's faction is now gaining momentum.The royalist faction that was originally on the Queen's side has now weakened and is vacillating between Concubine Cui Gui and the Queen.In addition, Jinyiwei, which belongs to the Emperor Zhili, is considered to be on the emperor's side.There is also the general Qi Yinglang who is guarding the border. It is not clear yet, at least it is clearly on the emperor's side.

For Cui Xiang's faction, Shi Jiang definitely didn't need to think about it. There was no possibility of reconciliation between natural enemies. Either the death of Cui Guifei or the death of the empress ended.

For the royalist faction, Shi Jiang could definitely win over, but most of them were stubborn old men, even if they were on Shi Jiang's side, it would probably make it difficult for Shi Jiang to use his fists.

On Jin Yiwei's side, Shi Jiang had already tried to win Yun Jin over. Although Yun Jin rejected Shi Jiang's proposal on the face of it, he also left a way out. Yun Jin was not indifferent to her proposal.

And General Qi is far away at the border, beyond his reach.

At present, apart from the name of the empress, Jiang really has no bargaining chips to compete with Concubine Cui.

In this world, with the original body in such a situation, it was impossible for Shi Jiang to rebel against him and become emperor.

However, now that no one is optimistic about her queen, Shi Jiang can use this to secretly develop her power.

Therefore, after Shi Jiang returned to Fengyi Hall, he asked for punishment and copied the Diamond Sutra a hundred times behind closed doors.

Originally, in the previous dynasty, there was a speech official who complained about the Queen's beating of the country's uncle.

After hearing the news, they all went silent.

After all, the queen has already asked for punishment, what more do she want?

Especially Concubine Cui's faction, they just feel that they are holding their breath in their hearts, which is really uncomfortable.

Therefore, the Queen's beating of the country's uncle can be regarded as being exposed.

However, Shi Qian, the newly-appointed county lord, still had to get married if she should get married.

Even if she didn't want to, Uncle Guo wanted to enter the palace several times to make the queen withdraw his order, but was blocked by the reason that the queen was in retreat.

In the end, Shi Qian wiped her tears and got into the carriage, and followed Liang Guo's envoys away.

Now the entire imperial court can be said to be ruled by Concubine Cui.

Cui Xiang rejected what Yang Jiong wanted to do several times.

Yang Jiong was so angry that his molars were almost broken, but he could only smile to appease Cui Xiang.

However, as soon as he got back to his residence, he secretly lost his temper, and he couldn't let others know.

Without the empress to host, Concubine Cui also became domineering in the harem.

In just half a month, Concubine Cui lost three or four harem concubines who were favored by the emperor.

Even, one of them has been pregnant for more than two months.

When Yang Jiong learned of this, the corners of his eyes seemed to bleed, and his teeth were about to crack.

"Cui Shi, you have bullied me too much."

Jiang lowered his eyes when he learned of this, the tip of his pen was not affected at all, and he calmly copied the Diamond Sutra.

Before that time, after a while, she can tell Yang Jiong about the palace maid's pregnancy.

After all, if he concealed this matter by himself alone, he would not be able to conceal the fact that the court lady gave birth to a child in October.

Sure enough, in the next few days.

Concubine Cui Gui saw that the emperor did not blame her for losing those concubines, so naturally she became more unscrupulous.

After the trouble, all the concubines and maids favored by Yang Jiong will have accidents.

Yang Jiong really couldn't help it. He couldn't feel it before. With the queen around, how could such a thing happen?
If Concubine Cui continues to make trouble, how many women in his harem will survive?
So, one morning, Yang Jiong sneaked outside Fengyi Hall.

"Zitong, help me find a way."

After sneaking into the Hall of Fengyi, Yang Jiong went straight to Shi Jiang, calling her for help affectionately.

Shi Jiang cleverly dodged the outstretched claws of the scumbag, and slapped Yang Jiongfu.

"The concubine didn't know that His Majesty was coming, but she still hoped to forgive her."

"Zitong is free, Zitong, you must help me. That old thief Cui is really deceiving people too much."

Yang Jiong balabala told Shi Jiang what Concubine Cui Gui had done during this time like peas.

He only hoped that the queen would be blind and step forward to help him deal with these matters.

As before, as long as there is something inconvenient for him to come forward, the queen will come out and handle these embarrassing things for him.

When Shi Jiang heard Yang Jiong's words, he couldn't help hardening his fist.

If it wasn't for the inconvenient occasion, she would have punched this scumbag's dog's head off with one fist.

Squeezing the fist in his sleeve, Shi Jiang suppressed the anger in his heart, lowered his eyes and sighed, and said resentfully.

"Your Majesty also knows that the concubine is now in the harem, acting as the queen in name only. Concubine Cui must not let the concubine down from the position of the queen, and will not give up. The concubine and your majesty shared weal and woe at the beginning. This friendship is concubine. I have always kept it in my heart, so I secretly hid a court lady whom His Majesty favored in the Palace of Fengyi, hoping that His Majesty's blood can be born safely."

As Shi Jiang said, he greeted the fat maidservant to come forward and motioned Yang Jiong to look carefully.

"Qiyue? Why are you here? Aren't you...!?"

Yang Jiong looked carefully, and after seeing the maid's face clearly, he exclaimed suddenly, then thought of something, and immediately stopped speaking, his face was shocked and angry.

"Cui Shi, how dare she?"

Qiyue is a maid in Concubine Cui's palace, because Concubine Cui always calls Yang Jiong to accompany her because she is pregnant with a dragon descendant in her belly.

How could Yang Jiong be so honest, after drinking some wine, he became more interested, and Concubine Cui Gui couldn't go to bed, so he naturally asked Qi Yue, who was serving at the side that day, to accompany him.

Originally, he planned to give Qiyue the title of beauty the next morning.

Unexpectedly, when he woke up, Concubine Cui said that Qiyue committed suicide by jumping into a well.

This made Yang Jiong lose his appetite, so he didn't bother to check Qiyue's whereabouts.

Now it is discovered that Qiyue is actually in the Queen's Palace of Fengyi, and, looking at Qiyue's belly, it may have been three months.

Yang Jiong can figure it out after a little thought, the child in Qiyue's stomach is probably planted by him that day.

But Concubine Cui said that Qiyue jumped into the well, and she was afraid that it was because she doted on Qiyue that she would do something wrong to Qiyue.

However, I don't know what method the queen used to save Qiyue
Yang Jiong stepped forward a little excitedly, and reached out to touch Qiyue's slightly protruding belly.

With a face full of gratitude, he said to Shi Jiang: "Thank you Zitong for helping me. I hate that wicked woman of the Cui family. She is too jealous to tolerate others. Sooner or later, I will ask her to be buried with my son."

Speaking of this, Yang Jiong showed a sinister look on his face.
