Chapter 46: Falling off the Cliff

The matter of the eleventh princess's injury was finally over, Concubine Jing was a person who had experienced the beating of the palace, and she knew that her skills were not as good as others, so although she doubted this and that in her heart, she didn't dare to get to the bottom of it.

After all, the second child she got so easily at this time was just a slight injury, and if she pursued it, she might end up even worse.

The unfavored concubines and imperial heirs have always been in such a situation in the palace.

After she calmed down, the queen's complaint did not yield results, so Gu Jue stopped walking around the empress dowager, but she was not punished.

This result was expected by Gu Jue, but her maid had been worried, and after observing for a few days and seeing no movement, she breathed a sigh of relief: "God is pitiful, Miss should be fine!" ”

"It's just that the concubine and His Majesty don't plan to do anything." Gu Jue was absent-minded and said, "After all, the eleventh princess can only see His Majesty once during the New Year's Festival, and the eldest daughter of the emperor in front of Her Majesty, Princess Zhaoqing, is a jealous person, and it is rumored that even the second princess does not dare to perform well in front of the emperor, so as not to attract the taboo of this eldest sister, let alone other imperial heirs...... In this palace, if His Majesty does not care about the imperial heirs, there are a little stumbles, and His Majesty will naturally not make a big deal about it. ”

The maid listened ignorantly and said, "Anyway, it's a good thing, right?" ”

Gu Jue sighed: "But my aunt hasn't come to talk to me for a long time so far." ”

Seeing that the maid was puzzled, her expression was a little gloomy, "Although I haven't seen my aunt much before entering the palace, they are all Gu's daughters, and now Cousin Jing is gone, and I am the only niece and nephew in front of my aunt." Supposedly, even if my aunt didn't believe much in my advice, she should listen to my whole plan and fill in the gaps for me. But after my aunt made an excuse to leave, there was no movement. Even in the past two days, I took the initiative to ask my aunt to say goodbye, but I was sent back by her close attendant because my aunt was running around for the affairs of the eleventh princess...... As far as the identity of the eleventh princess is concerned, where is it worth the dignified queen who doesn't even have the slightest effort to see her niece? ”

"This can only be said that my aunt is deliberately avoiding me."

"She is an elder and a queen, why do you think she can avoid me?"

"It can't be that you're afraid of me, so what's the reason?" Gu Jue sighed and said melancholy, "My aunt is not reliable......"

The maid pinched her sweat in a daze: "Miss, don't say that, if the queen mother hears it, maybe ...... Maybe I'll have to think about it more and more! ”

"My aunt shouldn't do anything to me if she finds out, after all, the Gu family really can't pick out anything if the sister who is better than me at this time." Gu Jue said lightly, "It's just that I thought it would be convenient to have her to support many things, but now...... Alas...... I admire Concubine Min more and more, when she entered the palace, she said that she was the sister of Concubine Zhenxi, but just by entering the palace, she was arranged to be under the hands of Concubine An, who had tossed and died and didn't know how many palace concubines, and I knew that Concubine Zhenxi either didn't care about her, or had bad intentions towards her. She was able to do so in this situation

Turning defeat into victory, putting aside her position, I really admire her. ”

"Don't talk about it!" The maid had a headache and said, "Just those words, the queen mother may not care about you, the queen mother will definitely not be able to stand this." ”

Gu Jue sneered slightly: "I naturally know ......"

She thought for a while, and suddenly said, "If something like this happens, it will be embarrassing for me to continue to stay in the palace, so it is better to go back to the house for a few days to avoid the limelight." It also made Concubine Jing feel more comfortable. Otherwise, how could the eleven princesses be the heirs of the emperor, and the person who injured her did not receive the slightest treatment, and she could continue to stay in the palace, what would Concubine Jing think? Convey this to the people who are with your aunt, that some money may be made. ”

The maid didn't know what she wanted to do, so she couldn't help but persuade: "Miss, don't be like this, Concubine Jing doesn't have any favor in front of Your Majesty now, and the queen doesn't have to be afraid of her!" Besides, the concubine gave Miss Jing to ...... If you go back, maybe you won't come back? ”

"Impossible, it was Your Majesty's intention that I entered the palace, and I never bullied the King of Chu in order to please my tenth cousin." Gu Jue said lightly, "Your Majesty promised me to enter the palace with Cousin Jing, not to pamper my aunt, but to appease the Gu family. In this case, I continue to raise my aunt, which is not something that the concubine can stop by means. Otherwise, do you think the concubine would be happy to see me and Cousin Jing in the palace all these years? ”

…… After two days like this, Yun Fenghuang received a notice, saying that Gu Jue was very guilty because he had injured the eleventh princess, and he had no shame to stay in the palace, so he decided to go back to the Gu family.

"This Gu Jue is very interesting, did he take the initiative to retreat?" Qingren saw the announcement and couldn't help but say.

Yun Fenghuang glanced at it and said lightly: "The queen has raised the two sisters for a while, how can she say that she will send them back?" It's just a gesture. Anyway, when the Empress Dowager gets better, there will be a banquet in the palace, and then it will be logical to come back? ”

She didn't pay much attention to this matter, but asked about the actions of the third prince again.

I learned that the third prince had not been in contact with Jinxi recently, but he had investigated the case in the sky, and it seemed that he had already had a result, so he waited for the time to be almost a blockbuster.

"I really don't know what this Highness is tossing?" Red Calyx finished her prayer and muttered, "Is it interesting for him to do this?" ”

If other princes, even if their biological mother is from a humble background and their adoptive mother is not favored, and shows their talents, the emperor will definitely like it.

But the second prince and the third prince are not.

The best fate of these two princes is to become vassal kings in remote places.

Don't think about the rest.

This is already a tacit understanding in the palace.

Red Calyx, so he thinks that the third prince is just doing useless work.

But Yun Fenghuang still refused to let down his vigilance, and ordered to keep an eye on it, but he was told again: "His Royal Highness the Ten Princes seems to be keeping an eye on the Third Prince's side recently. ”

"Aren't they all princes in front of the queen? How so? The concubine was a little surprised, "If it's the Third Emperor."

The ten princes are about the same, and the ten princes are ...... Bengong remembers that the third prince has always let him? ”

"That's right, it's just that Niangniang, please think about it, His Royal Highness the Ten Princes even bullied His Royal Highness the King of Chu, let alone the Third Prince." Hongcao reminded in a low voice, "You know, if it weren't for the sake of the storage position, the queen mother actually likes the third prince the most. ”

This is also an open secret in the palace, Gu Zhen is not a person who is not very good at hiding, plus the concubines and other concubines deliberately spread it, everyone knows that the queen's favorite in her heart is actually the third prince.

In fact, the queen's bias is also human nature.

The third prince is her first child, and she was once considered the only heir she can have, and this child is both talented, silent, filial, sensible and considerate...... Compared with the king of Chu who made the queen sad and guilty, the ten princes who were stubborn and defended their biological mothers, and the twelve princes who were timid and silent......

Oh, and the six princes who took over later, who were as taciturn as the twelve princes and had smallpox pox scars, so compared to this, normal people would like the three princes the most.

However, the tenth prince himself favors his biological mother, but he doesn't like the queen to favor the third prince, so he doesn't do much to this third brother on the surface, but he is very defensive and vigilant in private.

Hongcao said about the excitement in front of the middle palace, and couldn't help but have a sense of superiority: "In the final analysis, the queen has the identity of the lord of the six palaces, but she won't teach the princes at all, which is like the royal palaces in front of the mother, and there is no love for each other!" Even if there is a little discord, it is also the spirit between children, and they will be reconciled again when they turn their heads. ”

Yun Fenghuang just smiled at this, and there was no smugness.

In fact, except for the Seven Princes, the children in front of her are counted as one, and none of them are fuel-efficient lamps.

It's just that she does have the means to suppress it with both soft and hard bullets than the queen.

Even so, the biological King of Jin is also careful and thoughtful.

Moreover, this is not yet the official beginning of the national capital dispute.

After all these years of guidance, the King of Qin has known that he lacks talent, the Seventh Prince has not yet realized the importance and glory of the crown prince's position, and the Nine Emperors seem to be lazy but their withdrawal in advance is enough to prove his mind and precautions...... When the time comes, will you really give up decisively?

The hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.

Yun Fenghuan himself has been camping so far, all for the back position, for the position of Qingci Palace, how can he think that the children in front of him can calmly give up that position?

"How has the Empress Dowager been in the past two days?" The concubine took a sip of tea and asked slowly.

Left and right said: "The Empress Dowager was originally just a minor illness, but she has been much better these days. It's just that our Highness doesn't know when he will be able to get out? ”

They thought that the concubine missed the Seventh Prince, but Yun Fenghuang didn't care very much.

The identity of the queen mother, how close she is to her as a prince, there is no harm in being left and right.

She's not the kind of person who has to hold the child down

The mother concubine who is satisfied with her side doesn't care that the seventh prince has been in front of the queen mother for too long.

Hearing this, he groaned, but asked King Qin a few more: "They said that they went hunting for filial piety, and they have been going out for some days now, where are they now?" Who are they with? ”

Chen Jing came over and said the general experience, Yun Fenghuang thought for a while, and suddenly smiled inexplicably: "That place has an impression of the palace, speaking of which, more than ten years ago, the palace first entered the palace, the first time to accompany the summer vacation, at that time stayed in Wannian County for some reason, but received the news that the empress dowager was seriously ill halfway, so His Majesty brought the palace lightly from the road...... Later, he was assassinated and fell off a cliff...... At that time, when the main palace and His Majesty were fleeing, the cave where they were hiding was nearby. ”

The attendants thought that she was still apprehensive and was waiting to be comforted, but they heard the concubine say to herself, "Such a coincidence is also a good thing." ”

After that, he didn't say this, only disposed of some palace affairs, and when he saw that there was nothing else, he ordered everyone to disperse, leaving Chen Jing alone to speak.

Two days later, the Empress Dowager announced that it was all right, and the seven princes who served day and night, and the ten princes who went to greet each other the next day were rewarded.

Even Gu Jue was thought of and specially rewarded with a pair of hairpins.

It's not the best kind, it should be taken casually, but the reward from the hands of the Queen Mother is also very uplifting.

The queen regretted it a little for a while, and agreed to Gu Jue to go back two days ago.

Otherwise, if you go to thank the Empress Dowager in person, you may be able to get some impression points.

Her niece and nephew are carefully selected from many juniors, and their appearance is good, and the Gu family is the same as the Empress Dowager's maiden family, they are all high-ranking families, even if the Empress Dowager doesn't particularly like girls like Gu Jue, she will definitely not hate it.

But if you miss this opportunity, you can only miss it...... Fortunately, the shoehorn of the Ten Princes still had some effect in the past.

Otherwise, only the Seven Princes will be rewarded this time.

Gu Zhen thought about it and was sighing, but he saw the palace people crawling in and telling a bad news: "Niangniang, it's not good!" King Qin and several other highnesses went out hunting, and were assassinated a few days ago, and all the princes were injured, among which the nine princes fell off the cliff and disappeared, and their whereabouts have not been seen so far!! ”

This hunt is the imperial heir on the side of the concubine, if you don't speak well, even if you die, it is good news for the queen.

The key is: "The concubine Niangniang suspects that it was the Gu family, and now she is crying in front of His Majesty!" ”
