Cyan Lotus of Space Clearance

Chapter 159 Intricate

Honor Hall.

Lu Feng carefully looked at Mrs. Wu Yatai, who was sitting on the couch with closed eyes and silently reciting scriptures, and kept twisting Buddhist beads in his hands. He was a little anxious. The king of Yizhong County was waiting outside for the transmission. This prince has a big temper, and she Since I followed Taigui into the county palace, I have seen or heard many slaves who offended him and were all executed or punished with a stick and then punished to do hard labor. I really dare not disobey.However, Uya Taigui is not one to handle. Although she is only a noble person now, she is the biological mother of the current emperor and Yizhong County King, and the fourth concubine who once controlled the palace affairs for more than [-] years One... After serving her personally for a long time, I can tell from her occasional eyes and aura that she is not a kind person as she appears on the surface.

"Ma'am, the king of the county is asking to see you outside the door." Seeing that the twirling beads in her hand stopped, she immediately reported respectfully.

Wu Yashi opened his eyes, his slack cheeks moved, "Please come in."

Practicing Buddhism and chanting scriptures can really restrain one's mind and calm one's irritable emotions. After persisting for a while, she felt like waking up from a nightmare. She never thought that she would be so careless in the palace that she would make such a mistake. , when I arrived at the Prince's Mansion of Yizhong County, I also thought that the old fourteen was still the child who was leaning on me in the past... Sure enough, it was her son. After heartache, sadness, and resentment, I only kept these words in my heart .What is the purpose of my life?I was so absorbed in the camp that I had nothing in the end. What I abandoned was never in my heart, and what I maintained was not sincerely as I said in my mouth. It was to give her supreme glory, to be filial and to replace her.

"Yes." Lu Feng withdrew.

"My son pays respects to Er Niang." Yun Zhen saluted Wu Yashi as soon as he entered the room.

Wu Yashi looked at him indifferently, he would come when he complained about her, when he asked her something, when he begged her... this son has never really come to say hello out of concern since he took her into the mansion. But after the resentment and annoyance were over, she didn't care about it anymore. What else could he want from her current self?

"Sit down, what's the matter?"

"Er Niang." Yunzhen got up and sat down on the mahogany carved chair at the bottom of her head, and said awkwardly: "My son has a bad temper, you also know that since the fourth brother ascended to the pole, my son has been restless day and night, it is inevitable... No, because you are the most Do you love your son, your son doesn't need to hide anything in front of you..."

"Okay, let's make a long story short." Wu Yashi interrupted him, her face was quite helpless, after all, she was her son who had been in pain for decades, and now she could only rely on him, and the relationship was not good enough to make it too stiff.

Lu Feng came in with tea, put the tea on the table, and then went back.

Picking up the tea, Yunzhen took a sip before saying: "Er Niang, the four families of Jia Wang Shi Xue you mentioned are not very obedient."

"This is normal. Even if you raise a dog, you have to feed it enough to listen to you. Besides, isn't there a concubine Jia in the palace now?" This is how slaves are. Putting her head down and being obedient, Wu Yashi said harshly, even her son, who had devoted all her efforts, could treat her like this after she was demoted, let alone others.

She didn't expect that she used to be like this. After giving away her own son and getting promoted, she began to compete with Tong Jia's favor and plan for her youngest son.This is her living experience in the palace, so she naturally thinks that everyone in the world is like this.

"Could it be that you are watching these slaves betray their master?" Yun Zhen asked with a sullen face.

Wu Ya was silent for a while, opened his mouth to read a few names, and said: "Er Niang has been operating in the palace for decades, even if the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor are cleaned thoroughly, there will be a few left. They were originally placed by Er Niang. The errands in the remote palace are thinking about the day when they will be used, and now I don’t know where to allocate them... You keep their names in your heart. Doesn’t the Jia family now rely on Jia concubine? If she wants to survive in the palace, she can’t do without Eyes and ears? You can use them to negotiate terms with the Jia family, with the support of you, the righteous and loyal county king, she also has some weight and courage to fight with the concubines in the palace."

Yunzhen silently remembered the name of the person in his heart, looking at Wu Ya's quiet face that could not hide the traces of time and the gray hair, he suddenly felt guilty, Er Niang was no longer as beautiful as before, her life's painstaking efforts can be described as She put it all on herself... No matter right or wrong, she always loves herself the most, not to mention that she has failed her expectations, she really shouldn't vent her anger on her.He approached her, knelt on her lap, and said in a hoarse voice, "Er Niang, I'm sorry."

Wu Yashi was startled, then felt sore again, stroked his son's head with trembling hands, and said after a long time: "You are Er Niang's son, you don't need to say sorry to Er Niang, Er Niang will never be really angry with you, Er Niang Mother only wished that I could deliver the best things in the world to you..."

The two experienced this rare warmth, and after a while, Wu Ya asked: "What are you going to do in the future, do you still think about that seat?"

"...The son is not reconciled."

Yes, I am not reconciled, but the overall situation has been decided, she murmured: "...The four families that have no talents can only be used to consolidate my son's power and position for a while. Prince Baotai has passed away...the fourth emperor's throne is becoming more and more stable, so if you continue to toss about like this, Er Niang is worried..."

"Then what can the son do?" Yun Zhen looked helpless and miserable, "Even if the son bows down and becomes a minister, can he believe it?"

Wu Yashi held his shoulders, "If it doesn't work, let's do it secretly. It's just that he has a lot of sons now, and if something happens, he can't be brothers and sisters. You still have to hold on to your military power..."

Yunzhen was a little surprised. Didn't Eniang say that the most important thing is to use ulterior motives to compete for reserves?

Wu Yashi glanced at him and knew what he was thinking, and sighed: "At this moment and at that moment, you used to compete with your reserve position, and your opponent was your brother, and the one watching from above is your emperor's father who made the decision. , but now the person you want to fight for is the emperor, and the situation is different with different targets."

After thinking about it for a while, Yun Zhen understood that he is now alone, and he can't fight with an open fire. It is not easy to win the final victory with dignity. The emperor will not see his power grow. He will definitely do everything possible to weaken himself and others who have fought against him The power of a brother in the first place may not be able to succeed after decades of seeking.If he wants to succeed, he can only take a slanted sword, and add military power as a guarantee so that he can finally... force the palace.

"Fourth brother, the martial arts are very high..." The assassin who waited for nothing could do nothing for him, and now that he is the emperor, who knows how many masters are protecting him in secret.

"Hundreds of secrets will eventually have a sparse." Wu Ya snorted softly, "I am worried about your military power, most of your troops are separated from Sichuan and Shaanxi—"

"Nian Gengyao is a rebellious person, never satisfied. Er Niang, you don't know, he just sent someone to secretly give his son a batch of gifts two days ago." Yunzhen's lips curled up slightly.

Wu Yashi was very surprised. Nian Gengyao had to be promoted to the governor of Sichuan by the Supreme Emperor at such a young age.It is obviously not a stupid person to be able to be a great official in the frontier. At this time, he took the initiative to find the old fourteen. What is his plan?Can't help worrying: "Don't be deceived."

"He's just too smart and ambitious! He was already a feudal official at a young age. If he wants to go further, there are two ways. An emperor; the other is that the border of the Qing Dynasty was not stable, and the power in the court was unstable. In terms of talent, he was more than enough to stick to Sichuan and Shaanxi, and he was even able to lead troops to fight. In terms of relatives, he can be regarded as a foreign relative. "He has been paying attention to Nian Gengyao since before. This person, except his own ambition, doesn't care about anything else.His good fourth brother is obviously not good enough for him to be promoted and reused.

"As long as you know what's in your mind, go back." Wu Yashi said with a tired face. Her body has deteriorated a lot in the past few years, and she can't concentrate, and she can't stand for a long time.

"Then mother, you rest." Yunzhen thought after leaving Rongqing hall, and his dissatisfaction with Wanyan's family deepened. After all, the tea is not good enough...

At this time, he had long forgotten that he was unhappy when Kangxi reprimanded him for not being filial to Wu Yashi at the New Year's banquet. It can be seen that Yunzhen does not have the filial piety to the Wuya family as she did when she was a concubine, and the people in Yizhong County's palace can even see that Fujin is perfunctory to Rongqingtang... In this way, Rongqingtang can maintain its dignity It's not bad.

Yunzhen got organized and thought about how to better control the four major families, not to mention, the palace also started a three-year draft.

This is the emperor's first draft since he ascended to the throne. All the concubines in the harem stretched their necks to pay attention, especially Nian Shi. She was very disturbed after she knew that Concubine An (Jia Shi) was pregnant, fearing that Concubine An would give birth. The next prince, I am afraid that the emperor will be promoted to the position of Concubine An again. She will be evened out after trying to open the distance between them. The troubles in the palace are really restless.

Although the Nian family is powerful in the court, its influence in the harem and the Ministry of Internal Affairs is really not as good as that of the Geng family, the Jia family, and the Wu Ya family (shen concubine) and others... A few days ago, the second brother came from the king of Yizhong County. She got the name of a court lady next to Anpin and said it could be used, but she was afraid that her second brother was playing with fire when contacting Yizhong County King, and one day it would burn herself, so she hesitated.

It is better to start from outside the palace than directly.Not to mention the tight defense of Zhong Cui Palace, even Zhong Cui Palace's servants who are not confidantes are not allowed to get close. Instead of using this chess piece at risk, it is better to wait for a better time to use her.Doesn't Mrs. Ji trust her mother Mrs. Wang very much? Rongguo Duke's Mansion is not a harem, and it is very difficult to bribe someone... When the matter is revealed, she can just report Fuhui's injury by croton oil hatred.

"Ziye, you find a way to inform my mother, let her check the people around Mrs. Rong's wife, and say..." The more she thought about it, the more she thought it was a good idea, and she invited her confidant Ziye to whisper for a while.Ziye nodded and took the order to go.

Anpin Jia was diagnosed by the imperial physician as being pregnant for more than three months. Su Yierha asked her to raise her baby in the Zhongcui Palace and spared her from asking for peace. Therefore, although she was very jealous that Geng and Wu could host the draft, But I also know that the most important thing in front of me is my stomach. Except for one or two walks in the imperial garden, I ran into Geng's words to provoke a newcomer.
