Zhao Fujin, the Emperor who brought disaster to the country

Chapter 3 Backstab Expert
Cai 闗(tiáo)?

Zhao Fujin was stunned. Is he the son of Cai Jing, the traitorous Prime Minister of Song Dynasty?Have you started discussing marriage so early?

"You are still talking nonsense here!" Qiong Ye said anxiously and angrily: "Wu Langjun of Cai Xiang's family is famous in the capital for his good looks and good demeanor. When did the Emperor Ji say that he did not want to discuss marriage! "

"He is good, but his father is not good!" Qiongzhi said disapprovingly: "Haven't sister heard of the little words that are being recited among the people now?"

After saying this, he didn't care about Qiong Ye's eyebrows and lawsuits, and hummed to himself: "If you hit the bucket and spill the vegetables, it will be a good world on earth."

Hit the bucket and spilled the vegetables?
Could it be that he is referring to Tong Guan and Cai Jing?
"Qiongzhi! Sooner or later, your tongue will be plucked out by the eldest lady!" Qiongye blushed, with tears in her eyes: "As the maidservant next to the emperor, you dare to speak slanderously against the prime minister of the dynasty, but don't Dead!"

"Hey, Qiong Ye, you still know that I am also a maidservant of the palace!" Qiongzhi said tit for tat: "Looking at how you have been drinking and drinking all day, I thought you didn't know!"

"Okay, okay, what's the fuss about? There's no need to disturb anyone's sleep!" Zhao Fujin hadn't realized she was in the situation yet, so she took the little man in her arms and covered him with the quilt.

She understood clearly that this Qiongzhi really had a hole in his head.

However, a palace maid dared to speak slanderously against the two most powerful prime ministers in the dynasty. Qiong Ye was right. She was so happy when she said this, but it affected her, the imperial concubine!

Although she is Zhao Ji's favorite daughter, she can't stop her from making enemies for her family.
"Qiongzhi, your surname is Li?" Zhao Fujin had an idea.

When Zhao Huan ascended the throne, the first thing he did was to demote Cai Jing out of Tokyo and be exiled. At that time, the Jin people entered the country. In order to ease the situation, he sent Cai Jing's family members to the Jin people's camp as family members of the criminals.

These family members naturally did not include Emperor Maode who descended to the Cai family, but she was brought from the palace to the Cai family's concubine Li.

Li said to Wanyan Zongwang: "Empress Maode has an appearance that will captivate the whole country. Every man will like it. My beauty may be eye-catching among ordinary women, but compared with Emperor Ji, she is just like me." What reeds are to peonies.”

With one sentence, Princess Maode was pushed into the abyss of destruction, suffered inhuman torture, and finally retained the title of the most beautiful Princess of Valley Split!

Now that she has become the Maode Emperor, finding this concubine of the Li family has become a top priority.

"Ah? What's wrong with you, Di Ji? My surname is Cao. My father is a food envoy for the government. He was discharged from service two years ago and is taking his younger brother to make snacks in the capital." Qiongzhi was a little depressed. In order to let Di Ji mention it, Pointing to her own home, she had talked about things at home countless times, but she didn't even remember a single bit of them.

Your surname is Cao?
Zhao Fujin glanced at Qiongzhi's slightly aggrieved face and looked directly at Qiongyu: "Then your surname is Li?"

Just now I heard Qiongzhi call her Qiongye, but it must not be her!
As an imperial concubine, if you don’t have a palace maid who can do anything and has a brain around you, how can you control the wind and rain in the future?

"Emperor Ji, my surname is Fang." Qiongye took the handkerchief from Xiangye's hand, leaned over slightly and knelt down to the bedside. She gently took out Zhao Fujin's feet and wiped them with the warm handkerchief. , said to Zhao Fujin in a low voice: "Di Ji, please don't listen to Qiongzhi's nonsense. I have also met Mr. Wu Lang of Cai Xiang's family. He is very powerful and handsome, and his personality seems to be very good."

There are many people in the palace now, and I don't know who is the spy. What Qiongzhi said will inevitably be spread outside. The only way to solve the problem is for Di Ji not to intervene in the marriage.

"The official family and the eldest lady treat you like a top-notch favorite, how could they find someone bad for you? The official family is prosperous, and they are extremely talented. If Cai Xiang can be reused, he must have something special about him. The people's Smart people, no matter how they understand the truth, they are just following what others say." Qiong Ye continued to persuade: "The Emperor was unhappy yesterday, and she may have spread bad words. Don't leave any more excuses. good."

This girl is very thoughtful, and her surname is not Li, so she can be a pioneer with herself.

Zhao Fujin turned his head and blinked at Qiong Ye, which meant that she understood, and then said: "Qiong Ye is here to serve, and the rest of them should step aside!"

If she stayed, she would just watch the excitement, not paying attention or putting in any effort, leaving Qiong Ye to speak in a dazzling way and not daring to speak clearly.

Qiongzhi felt a little anxious when she saw Qiongye whispering to Zhao Fujin. Although she wanted to give Pifang Pavilion some dignity to her family, she couldn't be driven out by Qiongye wearing small shoes.And, right now, it’s her value!

"Diji, I am worthy of being a slave today!" Qiongzhi nodded unconvinced, and moved to the bed with pattering steps, and took the handkerchief from Qiongye's hand: "Sister Qiongye He’s used to putting on airs, even trying to steal my sister’s worth!”

"That's okay!" Zhao Fujin is very accommodating. She nodded and said to Qiong Ye: "You have been busy all night, have a good sleep, talk to me when you get up, and let Xiao Si sleep here. Take everyone down."

The discord between the two women did not just happen today. The other maids showed no signs of surprise. They were respectful before exiting and their farewell ceremony was neat and orderly.

But after leaving the pavilion door, whispers came in.

Qiong Ye scolded twice, and the outside finally became quiet.

Across the splendid bird climbing screen, the light gradually brightened. Zhao Fujin looked at Qiongzhi who became attentive in front of him, and ordered in a low voice: "After daybreak, you will interrogate all the maids in Qionghua Pavilion. , see if there is anyone named Li among them?"

Li is a common surname, so there might be many of them.

It's a pity that in history, the Li family has no exact name. Based on the age at which she can be used as a dowry, she must have entered the palace by now.

Zhao Fujin thought for a while and added: "She must also have a very good appearance."

Otherwise, Wanyan Zongwang would not be interested in him and would have the opportunity to recommend his master to the sea of ​​misery.

"What's wrong with Di Ji looking for someone named Li?" Qiongzhi was a little surprised.

This girl talks a lot, and you have to ask her questions first to arrange things for her. This is nothing like the conscious obedience of a servant as seen in Zhao Fujin's book!

Zhao Fujin was a little dissatisfied. She couldn't tell her that because she was familiar with history and had studied the Maode Emperor carefully, she knew that there would be someone named Li in the future who would kill Maode Emperor—that is, herself, right?
Qiongzhi saw Zhao Fujin's expression downgraded, and said hurriedly: "The Xiangzhi who cleans the dust in our pavilion is named Li, and he is born very well."

Li Xiangzhi?
"Di Ji is joking, how could a little girl from a poor background have the chance to get such a name!" Qiongzhi said disdainfully: "The names serving in our pavilion are all given by you, Di Ji, have you forgotten? "

"That Xiangzhi's original name is Ergu Li. She also has a sister named Aunt Li!" Qiongzhi said with a hint of ridicule: "Speaking of this, Ning Xiang, who was next to the former empress, said that there is a person in this slave's family. The girl named Cao Ergu is born very well, and she is very popular with our Eleventh Highness, so she specially gave her a lot of cakes from the palace."

"Oh." Zhao Fujin responded unconsciously, feeling a little bored in his heart: This Qiongzhi has light eyelids and a mean mouth. He should have been driven away early!

After Qiongzhi finished laughing and saw Zhao Fujin's expressionless face, her heart began to twitch. Could it be that he had annoyed her by joking about the emperor's biological brother?

So he quickly turned the conversation to the person surnamed Li: "This second aunt Li looks like she was born well. I heard her family is good. It's just that her father and brother promised her to be a concubine. She didn't want to live or die, so she recommended herself to the palace. As a female envoy, I usually take action with great courage, which is rare for people in our pavilion."

A palace maid who can follow the princess as a concubine must be something special.

He is generous, good at winning people's hearts, and decisive in doing things.

Well, there's no need to look for it. This little expert in backstabbing is almost none other than Ergu Li.
