Rebirth of the Phoenix

Chapter 91

Concubine Yun Shu didn't seem to have the slightest sense of the gloating eyes around her, she kowtowed and begged Du Yuncheng bitterly.She felt that she was really unlucky!How did she know that an ordinary gift would also meet with a rare turnaround in ten years? !Why did he crush the Empress Dowager Jiang to death? !Killing the Empress Dowager Jiang, what good would it do her? !If she really knew about this in advance, she should also target Empress Liu!Now this is really a disaster!
Concubine Yun Shu never thought that she would be able to escape unscathed, no matter whether she did it on purpose or not, it is always a fact that the Queen Mother Jiang's bedroom was lighted with the tranquilizing incense she sent over, and the death of Queen Mother Jiang was also true.With the facts in front of her eyes, Concubine Yun Shu knew that it was impossible for Du Yuncheng to expose it lightly, otherwise she would have no way to explain to the world!
It is impossible to go completely unpunished, so from the very beginning, Concubine Yun Shu thought about how to reduce the punishment, demotion, loss of favor, fined salary, Concubine Yun Shu can accept it, as long as Du Yuncheng didn't directly kill her, If her family is not implicated, then she still has hope. Don't forget, she still has a son!And he is the eldest son of the emperor!
If there is only Du Yuncheng here today, and Du Yuncheng's mood is calmer now, then Concubine Yun Shu might really be the one to achieve her wish.After all, Du Yuncheng also understood in his heart that Concubine Yun Shu and Queen Mother Jiang did not have any serious conflicts, or even overlap!What happened this time was probably just a coincidence, and Concubine Yun Shu could only blame herself for being unlucky.

But it happens to be neither of the two cases!Concubine Yun Shu was surrounded by a group of rivals who wished for her to be unlucky, and Du Yuncheng's emotions were on the verge of breaking out.

Du Yuncheng didn't want to listen to Concubine Yun Shu's begging for mercy at all, so he opened his mouth to punish him.

But before he could say anything, someone interrupted him suddenly.

"Why don't you know? Your father is the supervisor of Qintian!" Duan Jieyu sneered and said to Concubine Yun Shu.

People in the palace are all about watching people order dishes. Since she was demoted, her life has become worse day by day. If it weren't for the fact that she gave birth to two princesses, and Du Yuncheng treated these two daughters with respect. It's love, but I'm afraid the situation will be even worse!Even so, she has heard a lot of nasty things these days. Those people who were trampled under her feet in the past have all come out now.

Although these made Duan Jieyu very depressed, it was not unbearable.Because she had never paid attention to these people before, and her attitude is the same now, so the performance of these people can't affect her much.But the taunts from the two old rivals, Empress Liu and Concubine Yun Shu, made Duan Jieyu furious!
Now that they were just temporarily down, they immediately came over and stepped on them. Are they so sure that they have no hope of turning over? !It is no exaggeration to say that Duan Jieyu's hatred for Empress Liu and Concubine Yun Shu in her heart is no less than that of Lin Yuchan who caused her to fall into this situation.

Now that she saw the opportunity to drag Concubine Yun Shu down from the cloud and become like herself, or even worse than herself, how could Duan Jieyu miss it? !
Seeing this, Lin Yuchan forcibly suppressed the urge to turn up the corners of her mouth, and her drooping eyelids perfectly blocked the light in her eyes.As expected, Duan Jieyu did not disappoint her, and it was not in vain that she spent so much time reminding her of Concubine Yun Shu's family background.

When Concubine Yun Shu heard Duan Jieyu's words, her face turned pale.

After being reminded by Duan Jieyu, Empress Liu seemed to have thought of something, she gritted her teeth and looked at Concubine Yun Shu, "Concubine Yun Shu, if I remember correctly, your mother and sister-in-law only entered the palace seven days ago. Have I met you?"

Harem concubines, different ranks enjoy different treatment.For example, in terms of summoning family members, the queen can summon her family twice a month, and the fourth concubine can summon her once. For the ninth concubine, she can only see her family members when Jinfeng is still pregnant, and the lower-ranking 27th concubine can only see her family members. If you want to see your family, you have to ask Du Yuncheng for permission.As for the 81 royal wives with the lowest status, they don't have this right at all.

Like Lin Yuchan, she is pregnant now, and she has already asked Du Yuncheng for an order before, and Du Yuncheng also gave her this honor, but according to the rules in Tai Chi Palace, the meeting was only a short two hours, and the time to go to Liu After the time spent by Xie En with the queen and the time lost on the road were excluded, there was only one hour left to sit and talk.

Unless Du Yuncheng gave permission to enter the palace, the only ones who could enter the palace were wives, so the only person Lin Yuchan saw was Yang Shi.

According to Yang's information, Dingguo's mansion has already begun to show Lin Yuhui his wife, and the marriage of Wu Niang, Jiang's daughter Lin Yujuan, is almost finalized.

Lin Yujuan was one year younger than Lin Yuchan, and she participated in the draft with her, but it was obviously impossible for Du Yuncheng to let both daughters of Duke Dingguo enter the palace, so Lin Yujuan was eliminated in the second round.

Concubine Yun Shu's mother and sister-in-law's entry into the palace is actually not a big deal in normal times. After all, this is one of the privileges of the fourth concubine. Before Concubine Yun Shu, she would summon her family members every month. At such a sensitive moment, it is very problematic.

When Du Yuncheng heard what Empress Liu said, the way he looked at Concubine Yun Shu suddenly changed.

How could Concubine Yun Shu dare to answer Empress Liu's words? After all, when her mother and sister-in-law entered the palace, she sent the servants away to meet them alone every time, so as not to have something difficult to explain in front of others , so now I can't tell at all!I could only cry immediately, "Sage Mingjian! This concubine is really wronged! The concubine's mother and sister-in-law entered the palace, but according to the usual practice, how could the concubine have the guts to murder the empress dowager?"

Inadvertent mistake and deliberate murder are two completely different things!Concubine Yun Shu knew that she was wronged, but the others didn't!Or they knew it, but chose to ignore it.Anyway, Concubine Yun Shu has no way to prove her innocence now. This is different from what happened to Duan Jieyu before. It seems that it will be difficult for her to stand up this time, and there is no need to worry about her revenge.

Concubine Yun Shu doesn't have the heart to care about what other people think at all, all she thinks about is how to protect herself, no matter how bad it is, she can't implicate her family! "Saint, saint! Think about it, the empress dowager has passed away, what good will it do to the concubine? Why should the concubine take such a big risk and harm others at the expense of herself?"

"Hmph! Maybe it's not the Empress Dowager that you wanted to harm, but someone else?" Guo Xiuyi added insult to injury without hesitation.Empress Dowager Jiang passed away, and she was the one who was most affected!

Empress Dowager Jiang is Guo Xiuyi's aunt, and she is also her biggest backer in this Tai Chi Palace!Regardless of the relationship between the two, after entering the palace, Guo Xiuyi did receive a lot of care from the Empress Dowager Jiang. Even Empress Liu, for the sake of the Empress Dowager Jiang, did not dare to treat her too much.Now that Empress Dowager Jiang has passed away, and she herself is not liked by Du Yuncheng, one can imagine what her future will be like!Thinking of this, how could Guo Xiuyi not hate Concubine Yun Shu? !
Regardless of whether Concubine Yun Shu did it on purpose or not, Empress Dowager Jiang's death has nothing to do with her!Therefore, Guo Xiuyi has no guilt for stepping on Concubine Yun Shu.

As soon as Guo Xiuyi said this, Concubine Yun Shu knew that she was done for!If it was really just about the Empress Dowager Jiang, Du Yuncheng might have spared himself for the sake of his years of affection and the eldest son of the emperor, but now his own life was involved.That is a completely different nature!
Anyone who is an emperor, the most taboo thing is that someone thinks about the dragon chair under his buttocks, even if the other party is his son, or even his own heir!Otherwise, how did the abolished crown prince become the king of Yan in the period of the first emperor? !This is especially true for an emperor like Du Yuncheng who got the throne by accident and managed to secure the position with great difficulty.

Seeing that things are getting more and more out of control, Concubine Yun Shu can't even utter an explanation now, she can only keep begging for mercy, not because she doesn't want to explain, but because she understands that no matter what she explains, Du Yuncheng will will not accept.Now she no longer expects herself to be spared, and she is satisfied with just asking Du Yuncheng not to blame her son and her family.

However, Du Yuncheng quickly shattered Concubine Yun Shu's fantasy——

I saw Du Yuncheng closed his eyes fiercely, his voice was so condensed that it seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, "Chen An! Pass on my will! Concubine Yun Shu murdered the Queen Mother, the crime is unforgivable, and she was demoted to a commoner. One piece of white silk. The Yun family, aided the tyrant in the abuse, adult men beheaded for public display, minors were exiled in northern Sichuan, women were not slaves in the palace. As for the eldest prince—"

Du Yuncheng paused at this point before continuing, "I remember that King Yan has no heirs, so let's adopt him!"

Concubine Yun Shu stopped kowtowing since Du Yuncheng spoke, and sat on the ground listening to Du Yuncheng's disposition, her expression gradually changed from ashen to numb.

Du Yuncheng looked at Concubine Yun Shu's embarrassed and slovenly appearance, a look of disgust flashed unconsciously in his eyes, and then hesitated for a moment before saying, "You...do you have anything else to say?"

"A concubine... No, I dare not be a concubine!" Concubine Yun Shu straightened her body expressionlessly when she heard the words, and made a big gift to Du Yuncheng, "The concubine thanked Your Majesty for his extrajudicial grace! Before the concubine goes on the road, can you let me see Da Lang again?"

Du Yuncheng was silent for a moment, then finally nodded.In fact, starting from his original heart, he didn't believe that Concubine Yun Shu would do such a thing, but the facts were in front of him, so he could only kill his mistakes and not let them go!If it weren't for this, the Yun family wouldn't have ended up like this just because of Concubine Yun Shu's intention to plan her own affairs!Rebellion has always been to punish the Nine Clans!
