Chapter 965 One life for another

The emperor just said a few words to King De, and the queen tried to persuade the emperor not to speak so bluntly, but she was dissatisfied in her heart. Although Yan Beirong was reprimanded, in the end it was just a reprimand without any real punishment. From the courtier's point of view, this is equivalent to tacitly acquiescing that King De has done nothing wrong in supervising the country.

Although she knew that the emperor didn't mean this, she just didn't want to make King De look too bad. After all, Concubine Qiu was already imprisoned in the palace. The responsibility of thinking about the children, but in this way, it will undoubtedly only boost De Wang's morale. When he went out just now, De Wang didn't realize it. When he thinks about it carefully, he will see the opportunity. With De Wang's temperament, It must be used.

If the prince is healthy, the queen will not be worried, but the prince is poisoned, and there is no cure for it for the time being. Although the matter has been completely suppressed, she knows how fast the news in the palace is going. Everyone was tacit, and even determined that the prince would fail this time, and one or two of them would inevitably be shaken.

The empress was frowning, but the emperor fell asleep again. Concubine Liu and Concubine Liang came to visit during this period, but the empress did not summon her.

The empress is like a bright mirror in her heart. When concubine Liu comes here at this time, she will definitely talk about the two little princes. She finally said a lot of good things about her in front of the emperor, but she can't be fooled by her words. Letting see is the best, but in Concubine Liu's view, it may not be the case.

On the way back from Fenglin Palace, Concubine Liu was extremely dissatisfied and chatted to Concubine Liang: "What do you mean by empress? Isn't she clearly facing Concubine Xian? Concubine Xian has been running to Yanhua Palace every day these days, Going there is just pretending, the two younger ones don't like her at all, and they don't know what she's doing."

Concubine Liang was still as good as ever: "Don't jump to conclusions, no matter what the empress empress means, I think it's not a bad thing if I haven't seen the emperor today."

"Oh? How do you say this?"

"Your Majesty just woke up, and heard that King De came to see you today, and was reprimanded by the Emperor. You must be in a bad mood. At this time, you are going to tell the Emperor about the two princes. With the Emperor's suspicious nature, it is inevitable that you will not doubt it." Your sincerity."

After hearing this, Concubine Liu thought about it carefully for a while, but she also felt that it made sense.

"In other words, is it for the sake of Ben Gong that the Empress does not let Ben Gong go to see the Emperor?"

"It's also possible that the empress knows your empress quite well. If you say something in front of the emperor, she must know it very well, so it's really hard to say whose side the empress is on."

Concubine Liu frowned: "Sometimes the Queen does say that the wind is the rain. She is still helping others at this moment, and she may help you at the next moment. There are also many times when you can't figure it out. Anyway, I have waited for you." It's been so long, and I don't care about waiting a few more days."

Concubine Liang nodded, the two happened to pass by the long corridor leading to the East Palace, she sighed, and said, "I don't know how the crown prince is doing now, the princess is also pitiful, she fell into Qing Zhaoyi's hands."

"Hmph, this matter is not as simple as it seems on the surface. Qing Zhaoyi's appearance in the palace is a mystery. Now it is not clear whether Concubine Qiu deliberately arranged for the emperor to deal with the queen and the princess, or she He is hostile to the princess himself."

"Your Majesty, are you saying that the purpose of Qing Zhaoyi's entry into the palace was to be the Crown Princess from the very beginning?"

"There is no doubt about it. Why did that woman move Qi Meiren and Jiao Meiren? I didn't want to understand the relationship between these two and the Crown Princess, but Xu Concubine and the Princess are the closest people to the Crown Princess. , that woman attacked the two of them, obviously to anger the Crown Princess, as for Concubine Gu, she was tricked by that woman because of her bad luck living in Xuanhua Palace, but why?"

"Concubine Liu can't figure it out?"

"What about you? Can you figure it out?"

Concubine Liang shook her head: "Although the concubine works with you and me, she doesn't contact us easily unless there is a critical incident, so the concubine can't understand this matter, but the concubine, like the empress, also suspected that Qing Zhaoyi entered the palace. , the purpose is for the Crown Princess."

Concubine Liu looked around, and said in a low voice: "You and I can talk about this matter, don't mention it to others, now the palace is in turmoil, although the emperor is awake, but there are so many things in the past. We need him to deal with it, so we probably don’t have that much time to manage the affairs of the harem, let’s first look at the Queen’s attitude, then look at the prince’s ending, and then we’ll figure it out.”

Concubine Liang nodded, and the two had reached a consensus.

Concubine Liang returned to Xizhao Palace, Yan Beiyuan was still painting in the study of Xizhao Palace, Concubine Liang heard about it, so she went to have a look.

"Yuan Yuan, why don't you go back to rest?" Yan Beiyuan drew a stroke, and then raised his head, his eyes were slightly red, Liang Fei hurried over to appease her: "What's the matter? Yuan Yuan, who is it?" Bullied you?"

Yan Beiyuan shook his head: "No one bullies my daughter, it's my daughter who thinks of the prince's brother and worries about him."

"Why do you think of the prince for no reason?"

"Isn't the prince's brother sick? My daughter wants to draw a painting for the prince's brother. I hope he will be happy when he sees this painting, but..."

"What's the matter? Isn't the painting very good?" Concubine Liang looked at the painting on the book table. It was a picture of a magnificent landscape, with mountains and waters, blue and green, green mountains and green waters, blue sky and white clouds , there is a kind of artistic conception of seeing the blue sky through the clouds and mists, and it is the most suitable gift for the prince.

Yan Beiyuan was a little dissatisfied: "My daughter started this painting three days ago, and every stroke is filled with the most sincere blessings, but my daughter heard that no one can cure the prince's brother's poison. If you want an antidote, It must be replaced by the emperor's wife, once the emperor's wife is gone, it will be a dead end."

"Nonsense!" Concubine Liang hurriedly covered her mouth: "You can't talk nonsense, the Crown Princess is auspicious and auspicious, she will be fine, understand?"

Yan Beiyuan shook his head, and broke Liang Concubine's hand: "Mother Concubine obviously knows, right? Everyone knows, but no one stops the Queen's Wife, and everyone defaults to let her die. Why? Brother Prince If she likes the emperor's wife so much, if the emperor's wife trades her life for his, no matter how good the painting is, the prince's elder brother will not be able to laugh when he sees it. The daughter wants to make the prince's elder brother happy, but she finds that no matter what the daughter No matter what you do, the prince's elder brother will not be happy, why did such a cruel thing happen to them?"

Concubine Liang felt emotional in her heart, and gently hugged Yan Beiyuan in her arms. This child is kind, and she doesn't understand many things. Her future still needs her to steer her, so she can't make any mistakes. Thinking, Yan Beiyuan The hands behind Yuan tightly clenched.
