Chapter 285 Pei Jue's Life Experience

"Who knows?" Disgust appeared in Gu Lin's eyes.

"Well, since Pei Jue's background has nothing to do with King Xuan, then... no, there is actually another possibility that the Su family might secretly support King Xuan." Mu Zhixu narrowed his eyes suddenly.

For the Su family, King Xuan and the emperor are similar, no matter who is in power, it is good for the Su family.

But now in the emperor's harem, Su Zhaoyuan is the only high-ranking concubine who has no children. It is inevitable that the Su family will not have a different heart.

Perhaps...it was the emperor who noticed the abnormality of the Su family, which caused Su Zhaoyuan to have no children.

Gu Lin and Mu Zhixu exchanged glances, they both understood the suspicion in each other's hearts.

Next to the south wind...

Say what you think.

After talking about the things that should be talked about, Gu Lin asked Mu Zhixu to check Nanfeng, and Nanfeng was not poisoned.

His memory confusion should be other reasons.

Nan Feng heaved a sigh of relief when he found out that he was not poisoned, but then saw that the two masters had started gossiping, and suddenly...

"Pregnant? So soon?" Mu Zhixu exclaimed in surprise. He has only been in the palace for half a year. Isn't this a living target?

"It's not surprising. Concubine Cui Gui pushed Yang into the palace just to let Yang have a child. Even if she has some regrets, she will never miss this hard-won opportunity." Gu Lin sneered.

Concubine Cui Gui has only one daughter, the eldest princess of the emperor, and has never had another child for the next 14 years.

That position can make everyone crazy, and the six relatives will not recognize it. Naturally, Concubine Cui and the Cui family will not miss this opportunity.

"So, she is behind the scenes? Didn't you say to add fuel to the flames? What did you do?" Mu Zhixu suddenly remembered what happened years ago.

"Most of the women in the palace don't want Yang to be favored, because Concubine Cui Gui is already extremely difficult to deal with, adding another Yang will make people fearful, but there is only one person who is different..." Gu Lin said meaningfully.

Mu Zhixu thought about the high-ranking concubines in his mind, "Queen!"

"That's right, the queen can sit firmly on the Diaoyutai. The more fierce the harem battle, the better it will be for her."

The two looked at each other, and Mu Zhixu couldn't say a word, "The harem is really a battlefield without gunpowder."

The battle never stops.

The empress has an eldest son, as long as the prince is not spoiled, the position of the prince is almost inseparable, and the princes are still young, starting to fight now would make the emperor feel resentful.

He is in his prime, and the harem has so many thoughts, isn't this hoping for his early death?

Queens are wise.

"In addition to Yang, the queen is also pregnant." Gu Lin released another bomb.

Mu Zhixu: "...how do you know so clearly?"

"I used to be the leader of the hidden guards, and I also commanded the Nanya Forbidden Army." The main reason is that the emperor didn't hide it from him.

The emperor didn't feel much when Yang was pregnant, but after eight years the queen was pregnant again, which surprised the emperor.

"Yes, yes, you are the most powerful." Mu Zhixu laughed, "So in fact, if you want to say who the emperor favors more, the empress is definitely second to none."

Among the high positions, the four concubines only have one son or one daughter, especially Concubine Cui Gui, who has not conceived again for more than ten years.

This is also the reason why she pushed Yang into the palace.

"You can't guess what the emperor is thinking, but he values ​​his concubine." The emperor himself is an orthodox descendant.

This can explain a lot of problems.

"What grade is the Yang family now?" Mu Zhixu found it very interesting.

"Jieyu!"

"In just half a year, it has been promoted from rank seven to rank four, amazing." Her eyes showed admiration.

But I also understand that Yang's promotion is so fast, there must be the queen's handwriting.

For the queen, Yang's being favored will not affect her status at all, and it can also restrain other people.

"If it wasn't for Yang's father's low official position, he would have risen faster."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Concubine Cui Gui definitely felt the feeling of throwing a stone at her foot, and Mu Zhixu made no secret of her gloating.

There is a regulation in the Dayan Empress Palace that the concubine Jiu can raise the child herself. If the Yang family successfully gives birth to the child, further progress is a certainty.

Then Concubine Cui's plan came to nothing, and she even brought in a strong enemy for herself.

After the gossip was over, Gu Lin took Nanfeng away, and he had to go to the military camp.

With military power in hand, it is natural to subdue everyone and use it for oneself.

This is also the reason why he was so busy during this time.

On this day, Mu Zhixu was about to send a post to Su Qingyi and Xia Houqing, and when he invited them to play, he received a post from Nan'an Palace.

It was the birthday banquet of Princess Changle.

After Mu Zhixu returned to Beijing, he heard that the wedding date of Princess Changle and Marquis Jiang Yuchen of Weiyuan was set on the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Just over a month from now.

This birthday is the last birthday of Princess Changle before her wedding.

"Princess, the shopkeeper of Tonghua Pavilion is here." Xuezhan walked in and said.

Tonghua Pavilion is a well-known clothing shop in the capital, and the clothes it makes are very popular.

"Please go to the flower hall, Cheng Xin, and invite the second and fourth misses to tailor clothes." The shopkeeper of Tonghua Pavilion mainly invites to make clothes for his cousin and Xia Xia.

Cheng Xin is also a maid in the mansion.

Mu Zhixu felt that he had a lot of clothes, but he could make two sets for the banquet of Princess Changle.

In the flower hall, Mu Zhihe and Zhixia came after a while.

Hearing that he was going to make clothes again, Mu Zhihe hurriedly said, "Zhixu, I have enough clothes, and I still have a few new ones, which I don't wear very much."

"It was brought by Rongchuan Mansion. Let's make a few more sets." In fact, there are quite a lot of fabrics at home.

I also make clothes at ordinary times, but no one would dislike having too many clothes.

Seeing that there was an outsider, Mu Zhihe didn't say any more.

The shopkeeper of Tonghua Pavilion is a woman, about 27 or [-] years old, dressed in a clean and neat dress, with shrewd eyes and eyebrows, but she doesn't make people feel bored.

She also took a few servants with her, holding a pile of fabric samples.

"I don't know what to call the shopkeeper?" Mu Zhixu asked her after tea was served after asking her to sit down.

"If you go back to the princess, my slave's family name is Bai, and everyone calls me Bai Niangzi," Bai Niangzi said with a smile.

She has seen many ladies and noble ladies in the capital, but this is the first time she has seen Princess Yaoguang like this.

I heard that Princess Yaoguang is very proud, and the clothes in Tonghua Pavilion are not cheap, so she should be able to open her eyes.

white lady? !

The corner of Mu Zhixu's mouth twitched faintly. She was glad that she didn't drink tea, otherwise it wouldn't be beautiful to spit out.

"Then please trouble the white lady, give us a measurement." Mu Zhixu took a sip of tea and suppressed the smile in his eyes.

White Snake, "The Princess is too serious."

She personally measured the three of Mu Zhixu, recorded the size, and then gave them the fabric to choose.

There are colorful fabrics and different materials, including silk and satin.

Mu Zhixu chose three sets for himself, and three sets for Mu Zhihe and Zhixia, all of which were good materials.

The white lady took a small abacus and calculated, nine sets of clothes, a total of more than 900 taels of silver.

Almost 200 taels.

Mu Zhihe was dumbfounded, this is too expensive, 200 taels can build a green brick and tile house in the countryside.
