Donggong Zhangjiao

The turmoil in the East Palace came to an end, and after He Liangdi was grounded, she felt quite at ease.

Pei Yao later fined her half a year's monthly salary, and asked her to copy the palace rules every day, and kneel and recite Buddhist scriptures for half an hour every day in Jinxiufang.

The oral order that cannot be obtained without an edict has not changed.

So right now He Liangdi's situation is similar to being thrown into limbo.

Because of this battle, Fang Yun's status in the East Palace has increased a lot, so it is also comfortable to close the door and live his own life now.

But her life here is comfortable, and as a daughter of the Fang family, Fang Pei's life is not easy at all.

Ever since she had a miscarriage in the villa, she has been depressed, full of resentment and resentment.

She hated the third princess for causing her miscarriage, and was even more wronged because the eldest prince did not do anything to the third princess to avenge her, so much so that Empress Li sent someone to see her, and when she gave her a reward, she even gave her a face.

But who is Queen Li, can she be used to her?

It is not obvious that the third princess, the biological daughter of the third princess, prefers her son's concubine.

How could he punish his own daughter for the sake of a concubine's grandchildren who don't know the gender.

So in the face of Fang Pei's ignorant behavior, Queen Li also lost her patience, so she scolded Fang Pei directly.

The eldest prince is a good boy, seeing Queen Li like this, I was already annoyed by Fang Pei who was full of resentment, so I simply ignored her.

This gave the eldest princess a chance.

Before that, Fang Pei's first child was killed by herself, and she was urged by such a good mother as Zhao to pin the blame on the eldest princess. The eldest princess remembers this account.

Now is the time to take revenge.

Concealed to give the next order, Fang Pei has nothing to eat and drink here, and even the charcoal fire and thick quilts for winter are not given out, and the government doctor's pulse check is also vague, Not at all.

Gynecological diseases are difficult to treat. Originally, Fang Pei's confinement was not well-raised, and now it is getting worse.

For a while, he was so sick that he couldn't get up, and he lay on the couch all day long wiping his tears.

The servants below are not willing to serve them anymore, that is, Lanzhi, the dowry maid, and one or two who are usually honest, are still busy.

But Fang Pei herself is not up to date, lacks clothes and food, and is hungry and cold. Even with 1 efforts, they can't take care of them well.

Lanzhi wanted to go back to Fang Mansion to ask for help, but the eldest prince went to the north, and the eldest princess concubine was trying to catch her up and down in the mansion, so she couldn't get out at all.

After Fang Pei finally fell asleep in the middle of the night, Lan Zhi secretly wiped her tears.

She hadn't even thought about these days now. She thought that marrying Fang Pei into the First Prince's Mansion was to live a rich life, but she didn't expect to become the lost dog she is now.

Thinking about when she was in the villa, she saw Fang Pei dressed in silk and satin, and was doted on by the prince. For a while, Lanzhi didn't know whether it was a good thing for the master and his wife to send Fang Pei to the eldest prince's mansion just because they offended the prince.

It is said that the eldest prince is the emperor's own son, the prince's nephew will not get the throne, but even though Lanzhi is a maidservant, she can see that the prince is standing firmly now.

It is still unknown that the eldest prince will be able to ascend to the Great Treasure in the Year of the Monkey.

What's more, I don't know if Fang Pei will be able to become a favorite concubine after the first prince gains power and shine in the family.

Fang Pei couldn't think of things that even a maid could think of.

Now she only hated the eldest prince and concubine taking advantage of the fire to rob her, and hoped that the eldest prince would come back to support her.

Little did they know that the Eldest Prince who was in the north at the moment was in a bad situation.

It has been half a month since the eldest prince arrived in the north since he arrived in the first disaster area.

For the past half month, his life has not been easy.

The eldest prince who was pampered and raised had never seen what a hungry refugee looked like.

All the way north, he saw many disaster victims who came from the north and wanted to go to Kyoto or the south to beg for food.

According to the notes above, the disaster does not seem to be serious, as if the government only needs to open granaries to release food, and the people can get through the year, but in fact, what the First Prince saw was more serious than what was described in the notes.

Of course, he was still mentally prepared for this. After all, there was an old fox like Li Mu. Prime Minister Li understood very well what was going on in the officialdom, and he had explained it long ago.

It's just that the eldest prince was a little frightened when he first saw it.

These people were so hungry that they were skinny, no different from mummified corpses. It was already November, and they were still wearing short rags and sackcloth, and their exposed skin was black and dry.

The eldest prince still carried dry food with him, so he asked for some food to be delivered to the refugees he met on the road.

However, officials who understood the risks persuaded him, only saying that the local government would take care of it, but did not explain the inside story.

The First Prince was not such a kind person, so he didn't insist anymore.

But he still asked one more question, it was just a severe drought, why it was so serious, but the people told him that it was a drought at first, and then there was a plague of locusts, and now there are plagues in some places.

No one can live in the north, so they can only flee to the south.

After hearing the news, the eldest prince was also in a state of shock.

After all, these are not mentioned in the notebook.

So the eldest prince immediately wrote the news into a secret letter, sent someone back to the capital, and delivered it to Prime Minister Li.

That's right, I didn't report to the court at the first time, but told Prime Minister Li first.

This Li family is his think tank.

Naturally, we should first tell Prime Minister Li that we have got a solution, and then we can report to the court, and tell the disaster and the solution together, which will be praised by others.

And Pei Yao has been fighting with the eldest prince for these years, so he knows how dependent the eldest prince is on the Li family.

No matter it was around Empress Li in the palace or Prime Minister Li's mansion outside the palace, people were sent to watch carefully.

No, not long after the secret letter arrived in Prime Minister Li's hands, Pei Yao knew about it.

He didn't know the content of the letter, but he could roughly guess a thing or two.

After all, he had already sent someone to secretly disguise himself and go to the north, and now he is also watching the eldest prince's whereabouts.

Pei Yao laughed when he learned that the eldest prince had communicated with Prime Minister Li.

"Gu Zhen doesn't know whether the surname of Da Qi's Jiangshan is Pei or Li. If this idiot Pei Zecheng really gets the throne, I'm afraid it won't be long before this Jiangshan will change his name and surname."

Hong Zheng said from the side, "This country was left to His Highness by the late Emperor, but His Highness is still young, so let the Emperor take care of it for the time being. How can villains covet it."

"Yes." Pei Yao raised his eyes slightly, with a sharp cold light in his eyes, "The things left by the father to Gu, if you keep enough, you should return them to Gu."

After finishing speaking, he waved to Hong Zheng to signal him to approach.

After whispering a few instructions, Hong Zheng left the study silently.

And the next morning, an excerpt from the north was played layer by layer and handed over to Emperor Chengjing.

The content is exactly the disaster situation in the north.

It is almost the same as the content in the secret letter written by the First Prince to Prime Minister Li.

But this brochure was not handed over by the First Prince, but by an official from the north, and it was a place where the First Prince had already passed.

No matter how stupid Emperor Chengjing was, he could still find out that the eldest prince had concealed the disaster and failed to report it.

Even if he doesn't say it, can other ministers in the DPRK let this mistake go?
At this time, because of this excerpt, they all jumped out and questioned the behavior of the First Prince.

Prime Minister Li's face turned black.

If he said that the Eldest Prince had written a letter back, but it was sent to him first, and he was going to wait for his reply before reporting it to the court.

Isn't this saying that he exceeded his authority in front of Emperor Chengjing?

Not to mention, now that the eldest prince is questioned by the courtiers about concealing the disaster, he has been stabbed in front of Emperor Chengjing.

For a moment, it was a knife extending the head, and a knife retracting the head.
