Shocking Harem Road: The Legend of Concubine Yi

Chapter 166 Black Under the Light 1
Because Xinyi fainted suddenly, Ming Xuanyu handed over the affairs of state to Prime Minister Zuo Tong and Zhen Guo Princess Li Meier. Every afternoon, Zuo Tong would come to Yongning Palace to report some important matters to the emperor and ask for opinions.Therefore, even though he is in Yongning Palace, Ming Xuanyu knows state affairs well.This is also the cleverness of Zuo Tong!

Of course, Princess Antai has received great benefits, and in the next half a month or so, she also showed everyone her political talents.However, her performance did not seem to be anything to be comforted by the Empress Dowager.Because, Princess Antai no longer consulted her grandmother for everything as in the past.

At this time, Princess Antai was already close to the pinnacle of power.This somewhat unexpected but expected success made her a little carried away.For Princess Antai, all of this is the reality of her dream of fighting for many years.After going to Yongning Palace that day, she had already determined that Xinyi could no longer affect her future, so she relaxed her vigilance.

This is often the case with people. It is really difficult to keep a clear head in the face of sudden success.No matter how shrewd Princess Antai is, she still lacks experience in political struggle.Her pride and self-confidence have been greatly inflated and satisfied during this period of time!
Dark under the lights, she is black under the lights!

Although the subordinates reported that the emperor was already investigating the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and it seemed that the investigation was aimed at the princess, but now Princess Antai is too confident, she will never think that her "Brother Yu" can catch any of her handle.

Power is like fine wine, the more intoxicated it is, the more confused one's mind will be, unable to see the dangers around him.

Zheng Nan reminded the princess whether it is time to confirm again whether Concubine Yi is really hopeless and whether Concubine Yi betrayed the princess.The answer he got was "If Zhuang Xinyi's brain can beat Ben Gong, the person lying there unconscious today would be Ben Gong, not her!"

"Your Highness, if Concubine Yi didn't inform you, then it's time to investigate other people. If this continues, I'm afraid the Emperor will—" Zheng Nan has been Princess Antai's bodyguard for many years, and he doesn't want the Princess to ruin herself because of her overconfidence. , and tried to persuade him time and time again.

"Where is Nian Fu? What did he say?" An Tai asked Zheng Nan.

"Eunuch Nian is full of tricks. He will never embarrass His Highness when he says anything, but his subordinates still can't believe his words. The crux of the whole thing lies with him. If he turns his back before the battle, he will confess His Highness. , that would really be a capital offense!" Zheng Nan replied.

Princess Antai stopped writing and fell into deep thought.

Zheng Nan's concerns are not completely unreasonable, after all, Nian Fu is not her confidant.If the surname Nian betrayed him, it didn't mean that it was impossible.

"Princess, what do you mean by Lafayette?" the nanny asked, "The emperor must have known about this investigation. Why don't you ask Lafayette? If things really get out of hand, some Buddha is here, the emperor will not really do anything to you!"

Princess Antai put away her pen and said, "Have you forgotten how I treated King Yu at the beginning? If it wasn't for Lafayette, how could King Yu stay at home so comfortably? Mother and child are connected, no matter what Lafayette did to King Yu I am dissatisfied, after all, they are mothers and sons. King Yu has fallen into the current situation, Lafayette will never treat me like he used to."

As she said that, she changed a pen and continued to write, saying: "Don't you still understand Lafayette's personality? You don't say anything on the surface, but you can do anything behind the scenes. I just hope that she will Just don't make trouble!" She thought again: "If Lafayette really wants to do that, I can't help but leave a way out for myself!"

"Your Highness, since that's the case, do you want this servant to come to the palace to visit Hong Shanggong, and go to her to find out a little bit?" the nanny asked.

"That's good!" An Tai replied, "But Hong Shanggong has been with grandma for so many years, and he is also a master who doesn't like oil and salt. He probably won't find anything out of it!"

"Don't worry, Your Highness, servants will be careful!" said the nanny.

"Then you go tomorrow!" An Tai commanded, and the nanny took the command.

"Zheng Nan, hurry up and send this letter to Wuchen. You must find a way to deal with the matter of Zhuang Xinyi's brother, and don't let him die in vain!" An Tai had already written the letter and was blowing carefully. That seemingly blank letter paper.

"Besides," she mused, "Since Zhuang Xinyi is hopeless, I have to move on to the next step!" She stood up, put the letter in an envelope and handed it to Zheng Nan, saying, "The next thing is to start." Ready!"

"Yes, my subordinate obeys!" Zheng Nan took the letter, saluted and exited.

Seeing the sad face on the nurse's face, An Tai smiled and said, "Nurse, you can rest assured! Now, no one can hurt me!"

The nurse just sighed: "I hope this storm can pass safely!"

An Tai flicked his sleeves, but remained silent.

Besides, in the palace, the news of Yongning Palace being sealed has been widely circulated.At the end of September, after interrogating the people of Yongning Palace, Zhang De released all the innocent people back to Yongning Palace.And this interrogation has given Ming Xuanyu a lot of information.

Concubine Yi has been in a coma for nearly a month, except for a very few people, almost no one knows what happened to her.However, it appears to be alive.

On September 29, the Empress Dowager arrived at Yongning Palace.Unexpectedly, Ming Xuanyu saw something extremely unexpected: Not only was Xinyi alive, but she also gave birth to a healthy baby boy two days ago.

When the Empress Dowager came to the bedroom, Ming Xuanyu was walking back and forth on the ground coaxing her son, but Xinyi was lying on the bed looking at him and smiling.

"Be careful not to hurt the child!" The Empress Dowager hurriedly asked Hong Shanggong to take the child from Ming Xuanyu's arms, and said to the young parents, "You can't take this child with you. Where do you have any experience!"

Ming Xuanyu and Xinyi just smiled foolishly after hearing this.

"Zhang De, where is the emperor's eldest son's nanny? Have you found it?" The Empress Dowager asked, Zhang De said that she had already looked for it.

"It's the person Chen Momo is looking for!" Ming Xuanyu replied.

Nanny Chen is Fang Xin's mother and Ming Xuanyu's wet nurse.

"Since Nanny Chen is looking for it, there is no problem!" The Empress Dowager laughed, and then she hugged the child and started teasing, and after only a moment, she said, "Hurry up and let the little great-grandson of the Ai family be safe and sound." Go to sleep!" Hong Shanggong carefully put the child on the bed.

"Concubine Yi, it's really hard work for you!" The Empress Dowager said, "You have been through this hell and gave birth to such a vigorous son for Xuan Yu. The Ai family has to replace the Ming family. Thank you, ancestors and ancestors!"

Xinyi sat on the bed, bent over and said, "Lafayette killed Xinyi!"

Ming Xuanyu was beside her, but he kept smiling, which made her a little embarrassed, but it was hard to speak of him in front of the Empress Dowager, so she had to endure it.Seeing this, the Empress Dowager laughed loudly and said, "Xuan Yu, it's the first time Grandma has seen you like this!" After finishing speaking, she nodded and said, "Okay, okay, you have a son, this is considered to be a child!" Really grown up!"

Ming Xuanyu smiled and said nothing, and listened to grandma say: "Are you still going to hide this matter? Since Concubine Yi is safe and sound, it's time to announce the good news of the birth of the eldest son of the emperor! Only in this way can people's hearts be reassured! "

But Ming Xuanyu said: "Before the whole matter is investigated, my grandson doesn't want to publicize it!"

The Empress Dowager asked, "Do you have any clues?"

Ming Xuanyu replied: "Meier may have done this!" The Empress Dowager just nodded without interjecting.

"However, the evidence for why Meier did this is not yet clear!" Ming Xuanyu continued.

The hall was silent, no one spoke.

"Zhang De, what did you find out?" the Empress Dowager asked.

"Qi Zou Lafayette, it was Nianfu who ordered the servants of Yongning Palace to tamper with the incense of Concubine Yi's master, and Nianfu also admitted it." Zhang De said.

"Then how did it involve Antai? Could it be that Nianfu obeyed Antai's orders?" the Empress Dowager asked.

Zhang De said that it was confessed by others, but Nian Fu did not say that.

The Empress Dowager nodded and said: "Since this is the case, you should be more cautious!"

Xinyi listened to their conversation, although she didn't answer, she had many questions in her heart.

"Concubine Yi is really a blessed person! If you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed, and so is the little great-grandson of the Ai family!" The Empress Dowager said with a smile, and Xinyi hurriedly thanked her.But I don't know what to say.

After sitting for about a quarter of an hour, the Empress Dowager left, Ming Xuanyu sent him to the gate of Yongning Palace, and grandma let him go back.

Back in the dormitory, Ming Xuanyu noticed that something was wrong with Xinyi's expression, so she asked her what was wrong, but she shook her head and said, "Why did Lafayette pass this matter so lightly? Why didn't she ask me what was going on?" ?” Before she finished speaking, Ming Xuanyu stopped her.

"Grandma has experienced too many things. She knows what to ask and what not to ask!" He gently shook Xinyi's hand and said, "We kept it a secret, and she already knew about it." This is a serious matter, and she knows that I will definitely tell her the truth. In this situation, it is not good to ask too much! Do you understand? "

Although she really wanted to agree with him, her wariness towards strangers made her retain her own point of view.

"The emperor—" She looked up at him, he smiled and kissed her forehead, and asked her what was the matter.

"There is something, I said, don't be angry, okay?"

"Speak! I promise I won't be angry!" he replied.

She still lowered her head and swallowed her saliva, organized her words before raising her head to stare at him, and said: "Lafayette, she doesn't ask anything, maybe it's not necessarily what you said, maybe she knew a long time ago everything--" His expression was still like a calm lake without any waves, but she didn't want to say any more.

Xinyi is very clear about the status of the Empress Dowager in his mind, so he can doubt the Empress Dowager, but he will never doubt it.

After being silent for a while, he smiled slightly and said, "Maybe it's what you said! If Meier can harm you and the child, how can I trust others?"

She was stunned and looked at him almost stupidly.

"We are all people who rolled over on the tip of the knife, what else can we believe now?" He took her hand and sighed, "But, even so, I still don't want to suspect my grandma casually!"

"Without grandma, I would not have everything I have, Ming Xuanyu!" He said.

She has never experienced the relationship between him and grandma, nor the relationship between him and Princess Antai, but being betrayed by relatives must be the most painful thing!Therefore, he doubts Antai now because there is evidence to tell him, but, regarding the Empress Dowager, he will not doubt her.

"In the past I always said you were an idiot, but in fact, you are not stupid at all!" He smiled faintly, and said, "You react so quickly, as soon as you smell the fragrance, you quickly swallow that pill."

She laughed silently, but said nothing.
