Shocking Harem Road: The Legend of Concubine Yi

Chapter 174 Heart Knot 1
After the empress was abolished, the Empress Dowager ordered Concubine Zhen Gui to be in charge of the affairs of the Six Palaces. This, in the eyes of outsiders, established Concubine Zhen Gui as the new empress.

However, this matter is very strange, because the Empress Dowager has always been very kind to Concubine Yi, why does she support Concubine Zhen now?
Many people are thinking about this question, but these people do not include Ming Xuanyu.Because in Ming Xuanyu's view, grandma would not let a concubine from a family that has nothing to do with her be the queen, this point, grandma has already made it very clear.However, there is no need to think about whether she will choose Concubine Yi or Concubine De in the end, because in the eyes of grandma, Concubine Yi is not suitable to be a queen at all.Then, Zhen Guifei will only be a temporary transition and will be replaced sooner or later.

Ming Xuanyu knows this very well, but he will never tell Xinyi or Zhen Yunan, because now he needs to use grandma's dislike for the Zhen family to find his own people.

For Concubine Zhen, although she had the approval and hint from the Empress Dowager, she still couldn't feel at ease.Because she always had a knot in her heart, and that was Zhuang Xinyi.In her mind, if she wanted to be a queen safely, she must not keep Zhuang Xinyi.But how to get rid of her?Framed?Poison?Or another way?
Concubine Zhen is very aware of the emperor's feelings for Concubine Yi, so it is probably impossible to frame her.Think about it, Concubine Yi has been Concubine Yi, and they have been married for so long, if she and King Yi are not married, no one would believe that the emperor doesn't even mind this, and still loves her so much, which shows that she is in the emperor's mind. status.Then, trying to destroy them by framing them will not work, at least it will be difficult.Poison?It seems that it is not easy.After Concubine Yi's accident last time, the emperor rearranged the people around her, and they were all people Zhang De trusted.It is really difficult to avoid those people's eyes and ears and harm Concubine Yi.

So what to do?

Concubine Zhen now needs to show her abilities and let people see that she is the only candidate for the queen, and more importantly, she must get rid of the thorn in her side.

In order to thank the Empress Dowager for her support, Concubine Zhen invited Concubine De to help her with everything.

So far, Zhen and Zhao seem to have formed an alliance.

Although the Empress Dowager asked Concubine Zhen Gui to handle the affairs of the harem, she still cared about Concubine Yi, and she especially loved the eldest son of the Emperor.Whether in public or in private, she said more than once that "the eldest son of the emperor looks the most like the emperor".Such words, in the ears of caring people, are very connotative.

Then things are more complicated.Judging from the current situation, while the Empress Dowager supported Concubine Zhen Gui as a queen, she doted on the eldest son of the emperor.What the hell does this mean?
Even Ming Xuanyu was a little confused by this approach.

The New Year came to the world under such fog!

However, just after the court meeting on the first day of the first lunar month, the Duke of England came to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to meet the Empress Dowager, and told her something, and the Empress Dowager was furious!
"I only heard about this matter not long ago. You see—" the British prince showed embarrassment, and the empress dowager was very angry, but she didn't say a word.

"I'm afraid that it will be reported to the emperor sooner or later. He has been investigating that matter for a long time. If he is found out, there must be a way to deal with it!" Britain said fairly.

The Empress Dowager was panting angrily, and Hong Shanggong hurriedly stroked her back.

"Perhaps Concubine Yi and the Emperor have already suspected—" the British Duke continued.

The Empress Dowager stared at him and asked, "Why do you say that?"

"The last time Concubine Yi was poisoned, there were a lot of strange things. I heard that if there is no antidote, once the poison occurs, she will die. Concubine Yi not only survived well, but also gave birth to a healthy son. This—"

"This can only show that you didn't like someone and turned out to be a traitor." The Empress Dowager said, "Who saved her? Do you have any clues?"

"I don't know yet!" Britain said.

Seeing his younger sister's face getting more and more gloomy, he quickly added: "I have ordered to go down and investigate, and I believe there will be results soon!"

"Who was the one who sent to kill Zhuang Xinyi's family? Why did they leave two children alone? You even brought all those children in. You guys are really——hi!" The Empress Dowager sighed a long time.

"It's been many years since that incident, and it's unknown whether those killers are alive or not. It's not easy to find out!" Britain said fairly.

"What a bunch of idiots! Look who you have raised?" The Empress Dowager said angrily.

"You should be angry. When I first heard about it, I taught them a lesson. Now I have to find a way to cover it up, so that the emperor can't find us!" Britain said fairly.

The empress dowager thought: "The man from the Metropolitan Procuratorate died, and he didn't confess anything, so the emperor's clues were cut off. However, the only way to be truly safe is to let Concubine Yi die. Once she dies, the emperor will Then there will be no further investigation into the murder case. As for the group of people you raised, the emperor will blame Antai for that matter, so nothing will go wrong."

The Englishman nodded.

The Empress Dowager moved her hand back and forth on her forehead, deep in thought.

How to let Concubine Yi die without anyone noticing, and without letting the emperor suspect her, this is a very headache for the Empress Dowager.

Hong Shanggong suddenly said: "Lafayette, why don't you let Concubine Zhen do this?"

Both the Empress Dowager and the Duke of England stared at her, and she continued: "Concubine Zhen can't accommodate Concubine Yi for a moment, we can let her do it, we just need to help her. Even if the emperor traces it out in the end, and then give Concubine Zhen Arch out!"

The Empress Dowager did not speak, but the British Duke nodded and said, "Yes, just like Antai. Anyway, we want to drive the Zhen family away, and this happens to be an opportunity!"

"The problem is, it's hard for Concubine Yi to find an opportunity to make a move, and it's even more difficult for Zhen Yunan to do it." The Empress Dowager thought, "Unless, unless there is a way to make Concubine Yi take the initiative," Hong Shanggong and the British Duke said. Looking at the Empress Dowager, listen to her thoughts.

"Let Concubine Yi come out and let her leave the emperor's protection." The Empress Dowager said.

"This, I'm afraid it will be difficult!" England said.

"Think of a way to force Concubine Yi to come out!" said the Empress Dowager.

"Do you want to make a fuss about Prince Yi?" Hong Shanggong asked.

"Whether it's Xuan Ting, Li Yan, or anyone else, anyone who is close to her should think about it carefully and find a breakthrough!" The Empress Dowager said, the British Duke and Hong Shanggong nodded.

"For so many years, what have you been doing to bring Zhuang Xinyi to the emperor's side, return, return, alas! This kind of person should never let her live! Now that we have come to this point, it is really too much to want to get rid of her. Difficult!" said the Empress Dowager.

"It was such a good opportunity last time, it turned out to be—" the British Duke sighed.

"If she hadn't been messing around with Emperor Cha, how could Cong'er be pushed to that point?" The Empress Dowager said, "Although Cong'er deserved to be blamed, the Ai family can't tolerate people like Zhuang Xinyi and An Tai coming to harm the son of the Ai family! "

The British public servant said with a smile: "Yes, that's right!" Then he said: "I heard that An Tai asked you to forgive her?"

The Empress Dowager glanced at Hong Shanggong, and knew that it was Hong Shanggong who told the Duke of England, so she said: "She wrote to me, saying that she was wrong, she shouldn't make her own decisions, she shouldn't do this I shouldn't have said that, I said a lot. He also said that I would like to talk to the emperor and let her come back."

"What do you mean?" asked the English Duke.

"Let's have a look before we talk! Let her reflect at home." The Empress Dowager said.

"That's true! But, shouldn't the young rich be released?" the British Duke asked.

"Wait for that matter to cool down! Even if you let him return to the palace now, he will be stared at by the emperor, and he will be unable to do anything at all." The Empress Dowager said, and the British Duke nodded.

"How to deal with Concubine Yi, let's all think about it carefully and come up with a safe way. In addition," the empress dowager said to the British, "carefully watch the emperor's investigation and deal with all those who are unsafe."

The Duke of England takes command.

What the British Duke said today has indeed caused too much trouble for the Empress Dowager.

"The embankment of a thousand miles collapses in an ant's nest." If the empress dowager's huge power for many years is the dike, the appearance of Zhuang Xinyi has inadvertently destroyed the efforts of the empress dowager.

Of course, Xinyi and Ming Xuanyu didn't know about these situations, they still lived as usual.

In the first month, because the emperor did not have to deal with official duties, the harem became like a family, and everyone gathered together to chat and play games.And Xinyi will always only be with Zuo Hanqing and Lin Yuhan.Of course, Ming Ruoxi and Gu Feiyan would also come to the palace to visit Xinyi.

What made Ming Xuanyu very speechless was that on the third day of the first lunar month, Xinyi invited Ming Ruoxi to Yongning Palace, and Ming Ruoxi brought two hedgehogs as she promised.At that time, Zuo Hanqing, Lin Yuhan, and Gu Feiyan were all there, and everyone couldn't help laughing.Ming Xuanyu almost threw the hedgehog away, but he blamed him for saying that he couldn't match his sister's mouth and her "unreasonableness", and Xinyi persuaded him not to do that, and said, "The princess's gift is very unique. Ah, very good", Ming Ruoxi was even more proud of being praised by Xinyi.

Everyone gathered together, beaming.

Everything is moving forward step by step under the appearance of peace.

At the beginning of February, there was a sudden news that Fang Xin was going to marry Zhen Guifei's younger sister, the one she was going to give to Zhao Mo earlier.When the news reached Yongning Palace, Xinyi was shocked. She couldn't believe that Fang Xin would do that, so she sent someone to find Fang Xin to inquire, but Fang Xin was not in the palace at all.

Fang Xin and Gu Feiyan are in love with each other. Although they didn't say it explicitly, Xinyi has already seen it.What exactly is going on?How could Fang Xin marry the daughter of the Zhen family?
Originally planned to go out of the palace to see Gu Feiyan, but it was almost dusk, and Xinyi couldn't leave the palace.She didn't know if Ming Xuanyu would come over tonight, she asked Lian Er to send someone to Qianqing Palace to tell him before dinner, and asked him to remember to come tonight.This was the first time she took the initiative to find him. Although he felt a little surprised, he was still very happy.

However, when he finished talking with the ministers and rushed to Yongning Palace excitedly, he saw her sitting in front of the window playing the piano.

"It's so strange today, it's rare for you to be so active?" He laughed.

She got up and walked up to him, instead of answering his words, she asked, "Is Fang Xin really going to marry Concubine Zhen's younger sister?"

"Fu Guogong mentioned it to me, saying that he wanted to grant a marriage." Hearing this, he sat down on the chair and rested.

"What about you? Agreed?" She asked him worriedly.

But he smiled and asked her: "What's the matter, Fang Xin disagrees? If he doesn't agree, why didn't he tell me and come to complain to you?"

"Where did I see his shadow? I just heard about it, so I wanted to ask you. So, it really happened!" she said.

"Well, although I have never met Yu Nan's younger sister, she must be a very outstanding woman, and she was born in a family of ministers, with both talents and virtues, what is she not worthy of Shangxin?" He laughed.

"Oh, what do you know? Is it a matter of being worthy or not? You must not mess up the mandarin ducks!" She said nervously.

He straightened up, put his arms on the armrest, stared at her and said, "I haven't agreed to anything yet! That guy Fang Xin hasn't seen anyone all day, why is he missing? You care so much, don't you know?" what?"

She sat down on the chair next to him, and said, "Fang Xin likes Sister Feiyan, but Sister Feiyan doesn't know what's going on, maybe it's because she still remembers Mrs. Tan, Fang Xin just keeps going like this." Wait. If there are no accidents, I think the two of them may have been chattering like this, chattering, maybe it will be done someday."

He listened to her gossip with interest.

"Now, for no apparent reason, the daughter of Duke Fu was killed. How can Fang Xin handle it now? It's obvious that the Zhen family is forcing the marriage!" The more she spoke, the more excited she became, but he smiled.
