Xiangmen Concubine: The Emperor's Abandoned Concubine

Chapter 34
From returning to the small courtyard to falling asleep, Lian'er kept pestering her about how she met His Highness Jiu, and why was it that people from Jiuyou Palace sent her back?
Ruan Mianmian picked the key point, by the time Lianer's curiosity was satisfied, it was already very late.Lian'er yawned, Ruan Mianmian told her to go to rest and lay down herself.

Thinking about what happened today, Ruan Mianmian couldn't help but think about the last time she was hunted down and poisoned with Lian'er. Could it be that the man in the palace still wants to kill her now?

The two groups of men in black that I met in the suburbs today were not sure where they came from, but they were definitely from the original palace on the other side.

Otherwise, he would not be so ruthless, every arrow is a fatal point.She was going to see Luo Ying dressed as a man, but Luo Ying said straight away that she had already arrived in Jingling City when Feng Jiuyou got married.

No need, no need to tell Luo Ying her identity?

I was startled suddenly, could it be that Luo Ying's words on the boat were just for probing?

But what she meant was that she was sure that she was Ruan Mianmian.

When Tianzihao was in Jingling City, Xuanzihao had already arrived in Jingling City, which was contrary to the secret door's past style of doing things.There is no special reason for the four guardians, there will never be two guardians appearing in the same place, Ruan Mianmian frowned, thinking secretly, I hope it is not Luo Ying.

Early the next morning, not long after Ruan Mianmian woke up, Feng Changxi came over.The first time he saw her, he went directly to her and clasped her wrist, with a serious look on his brows.

Ruan Mianmian was also struggling, and Feng Changxi took the pulse.Looking at his dignified expression, he couldn't help asking: "Why, do you know what happened in the suburbs yesterday?"

Feng Changxi's eyes were filled with coldness, and he let go of Ruan Mianmian's hand, with a mocking smile on his lips: "Why, do you think I did it?"

With a little surprise in his eyes, Ruan Mianmian didn't understand why Feng Changxi would think that way?She had doubted many people, but she had never doubted Feng Changxi.

A trace of forbearance flashed across the black stone-like eyes, Feng Changxi looked at Ruan Mianmian and asked, "Have the wounds been healed?"

"Well, it's just a small injury, it's fine." Ruan Mianmian didn't like the conversation between her and Feng Changxi very much.

Although you don't believe me and I don't believe you, but even if there are calculations between the two of them, they are all on the table.

The breeze brought the blue robes flying, Feng Changxi frowned: "The mark on the face of the imperial concubine is indeed my hands and feet, but it is not to frame you."

Ruan Mianmian smiled, with a calm expression: "I know, so I didn't blame you."

Feng Changxi wanted to say something. After a long silence, the doctor sighed. He approached her like a sigh: "Mianmian, Jiuyou is unfathomable, stay away from him."

A trace of surprise flashed across her calm eyes. To be honest, she didn't blame Feng Changxi for what happened to Gu Ruoying.After all, seeing Gu Ruoying suffer a loss, she was very happy from the bottom of her heart.

It's just that she is used to solving her own affairs by herself, and she doesn't want others to intervene. She is still a person who is indistinguishable from friend and foe, and will always oppose each other.

"I know, he's already suspicious of me. If I'm not injured in the suburbs, my martial arts will be exposed." In front of Feng Changxi, she didn't have to hide it.

Feng Changxi frowned, looked at Ruan Mianmian: "Is he suspicious?"

Ruan Mianmian nodded, with an unnatural expression on her face: "He tried again and again, and you should have known the night before yesterday that people from Jiuyou Palace had been to the small courtyard."

Feng Changxi naturally knew, but it was a pity that the original painting followed that person, but he disappeared when he arrived at Linglong Pavilion.It happened that Fang Qingming, the third young master of the Fang family, was having fun there, but he didn't expect that he would be dismissed the next day.

There is no need to ask about this matter, he also knows that it is the hands of the secret door.Taifu Fangji is open-minded, has the world in mind, has profound knowledge, and is deeply loved by the people.

Already a veteran of the three dynasties, with countless disciples, Emperor Feng Zhao gave him three points, not to mention the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty.

The daughters of the Fang family entered the palace as concubines either as queens or noble concubines. Unfortunately, in recent years, the daughters of the Fang family have died very early, and the youngest have not yet reached the marriageable age.

Emperor Fengzhao's first queen was the daughter of the former Taifu Feng's family, but she was also too beautiful.

Emperor Fengzhao thought that the former Taifu was old, and the Feng family gradually stepped into the past, and appointed Feng Churuo, the younger sister of the former empress, as the queen, who is the current empress.

Today, the three largest families in the imperial court are the Gu family where General Gu Yunfeng belongs, the Fang family headed by Tai Fu Fang Ji, and the Ruan family headed by Prime Minister Ruan Hua.

Emperor Fengzhao is over half a hundred years old. Although the crown prince was established early, there are constant factional struggles in the court.

The attitudes of the three major families of the Feng family, the Fang family and the Gu family were also ambiguous. Until the last moment, no one knew what the outcome would be.

She had Fang Qingming abolished, because Fang Qingming should have been taught a lesson.Not only can Emperor Fengzhao disappoint the other party's family, but it can also overshadow the fact that the imperial concubine's head was shaved.

And the most important point, the master said on his deathbed that if the Fang family is in trouble in the future, the secret door needs to help appropriately.Master, I owe Fang Ji a favor.

Although Fang Qingyang was abolished, his life was preserved in a disguised form.Otherwise, his arrogant temper would ruin the Fang family sooner or later.

Although there are very few males in the Fang family, Fang Chen, the young master of the Fang family, is a rare genius in academia.After Fang Qingyang's incident, Fang Chen was still on duty at the Imperial Academy and was not affected in the slightest.

It's just that Fang Ji was recruited into the imperial study by Emperor Feng Zhao, and after returning to the mansion, he fell seriously ill, and he is still unable to go to court.

The two sat down at the stone table under the green bamboo. Feng Changxi's eyes were as bright as the stars, looking at the thoughtful Ruan Mianmian and asked, "Why do you want to help the Fang family?"

Ruan Mianmian didn't expect Feng Changxi to see through her mind, so she thought half-truthfully and said, "A long time ago, I owed the Fang family a favor."

Feng Changxi didn't get to the bottom of it, and fell into deep thought.

He looked at Ruan Mianmian for a while and said: "Although the prince is a prince now, there are many factions in the court. Although Emperor Fengzhao asked the prince to help with government affairs, many things are very difficult and not suitable for the prince to handle. "

Ruan Mianmian not only thought of the murder of Master Zhu, Minister of the Ministry of War, the secret door is a hero in the hearts of many poor people, but also the number one enemy of the court.

Knowing that it was done by the people from the secret door, but let the prince Feng Junxi handle it, the result will only end without a problem.Secret door to do things, never missed too.This time, nature will not miss.

It has been so long since Mr. Zhu was killed, and there is no news from the court.The people in the court are panicked, and many people have begun to doubt the ability of the crown prince Feng Junxi.

Over time, the prince's power in the court will be weakened invisible.

"The prime minister, Lord Ruan, has invited the emperor to marry you. Your second sister, Ruan Qingqing, will marry the third highness, Feng Zixu, at the end of this month."

Ruan Mianmian was taken aback, and asked with wide eyes, "What did you say?"

Feng Changxi looked at her with a smile that was not a smile: "Prime Minister Ruan is a shrewd person, and he has calculated everything. Your eldest sister is married to the current crown prince. If the crown prince succeeds in the future, your eldest sister will naturally be the Fengtian Dynasty." queen."

"If the crown prince fails, your second sister will marry the third highness, Feng Zixu, who is also the main concubine. In that case, the Ruan family will still be relatives of the emperor."

Ruan Mianmian immediately thought of what she had heard in the mansion about Ruan Jiaojiao when she was domineering, saying that it was Ruan Hua who was looking for a husband for her, it seemed that it was the Fifth Highness Feng Chengao.

In the eyes of everyone, Feng Chengao is the most capable candidate to compete with the crown prince.After all, he holds millions of troops and is the ever-victorious general of the Fengtian Dynasty.

Compared with the Nanjun King back then, although he was slightly inferior.But with more time, it may be another pride of the Fengtian Dynasty.

If he becomes married to the Ruan family, and Ruan Hua becomes the Prime Minister, Feng Chengao's influence in the court will definitely expand.

Feng Changxi saw that Ruan Mianmian's expression was different. Although he was smiling, his eyes were full of coldness: "Your third sister should also know that the one who made the promise was the Fifth Highness. And you, Jiuyou, although you can't Beloved, but Ruan Hua doesn't want to offend any prince."

That was the last thing Ruan Mianmian wanted to think about, but now she had to think about it.The third prince, Feng Zixu, was not bad, he was as elegant and respectable as a bright moon on a peak.

The second sister is pretty and smart, and she can play the piano well. If the two get along, they can raise their eyebrows.Ruan Hua has calculated everything, no matter who becomes the emperor in the future, he will not suffer.

"Why did you come to tell me this?" Ruan Mianmian spoke lazily as if she couldn't find anything to talk about.

Feng Changxi looked at her with shining eyes, and said in a depressed voice, "I thought you wanted to know."

Seeing Feng Changxi's depressed expression, Ruan Mianmian couldn't help laughing.

Seeing her smile, Feng Changxi slowly laughed too.Taking a deep breath, she fiddled with the jade pendant at her waist: "Will you go when the wedding comes?"

Ruan Mianmian smiled and said: "In the prime minister's mansion, apart from my mother and Lian'er, the second sister treats me the best. I will naturally go to her wedding. However, with my current status, the prime minister can't wait See you."

Before Feng Changxi could speak, Ruan Mianmian said again: "But I didn't think about hiding in the crowd that day and just going to see the second sister."

Feng Changxi looked at her and saw her pale eyebrows from afar, with indifference in her gentleness, and an imperceptible sadness in her brightness, her heart moved slightly.

Stretching out his hand to hold that little white hand, his voice was so gentle that he didn't even notice it: "Mianmian, why don't you go with me?"

Ruan Mianmian was taken aback, and quickly withdrew her hand, with a puzzled look on her face: "Changxi, you are the son of the Prince of Nanjun, and I..."

There was displeasure in Feng Changxi's eyes, and a look of disappointment appeared on his moonlike face: "I think you are always so different."

Ruan Mianmian was stunned again, different?

How is she different, but life forced her to learn to be independent.

If it wasn't because of meeting Master, it wasn't because of entering a secret door.If it hadn't been for the life that taught her to endure since she was a child, there might not be a woman named Ruan Mianmian in this world.

The disappointment in Feng Changxi's eyes was so obvious, Ruan Mianmian turned her head away from looking at her, and her voice faded: "My son's kindness, Mianmian appreciates it."

Feng Changxi's expression was gloomy, but he regained his composure in an instant, and smiled, Ruan Mianmian, who had already arrived at the small pond to tease the fish in the pond, also looked at the fish in the pond: "They are quite at ease."

Ruan Mianmian said with a half-smile, "Not necessarily."

Feng Changxi walked to her side with graceful steps, and also squatted down, the distance between them was only half a palm: "Because the sky is high and the birds can fly, and the sea is wide and the fish can leap."

Ruan Mianmian smiled and said, "Isn't it?"

"Nanjun is located in the south of the Fengtian Dynasty, close to the South China Sea. If there is a chance in the future, we will send them to the South China Sea." While speaking, Feng Changxi also stretched out his hand to tease the fish in the pond with Ruan Mianmian.
