The sick king dotes on the princess and the mad concubine

Chapter 53. The Eight Diagrams of the Royal Family

Chapter 53 53. Royal gossip
Only a low female voice said: "I'm really sorry for the empress, I clearly did nothing wrong, but I still have to go to appease those people."

Yin Jieyou and Lieyan glanced at each other, tacit understanding, flew up, and hid by the transom of the roof beam. Looking through the transom, there were three people sitting in the wing room, Hong Ling, Yao Qiang, and a little maid. It was the little maid who spoke.

Hong Ling frowned, and said: "Be careful what you say, if anyone with a heart hears it, you little girl will suffer."

The little maid pouted and was very displeased: "What I said is clearly the truth, sister Hongling, don't we feel wronged? We used to be crown princesses, but the empress dowager stuffed some girls for the emperor, and now I am a queen. Still can't live in peace, the third princess has done so many wrong things, so if you go on a hunger strike, you will go on a hunger strike, if you force our empress to take care of her, then who will take care of our empress, speaking, this empress is really aggrieved!"

Yao Qiang sighed lightly, and said: "Stop talking, Hong Ling is right, such words should be rotten in our hearts, we just need to finish what my sister told me, and don't cause trouble for her."

The three ate some food casually and left in a hurry.

Because the position of the transom is relatively biased and the sides are narrow, the two of them were hanging there, but Yin Jieyou was actually at the bottom, and Lie Yan was hanging on the golden hook upside down. At this time, the two of them turned over and let out a sigh of relief at the same time. .

Yin Jieyou sighed softly, "The situation in this palace is really complicated and changeable, I really don't want to be involved in this whirlpool."

"Where is this matter up to you?" Clapping his hands, he sat back in his seat, "If you offend the third princess and the queen mother, even if you want to get away at this time, I'm afraid it will be very difficult."

Yin Jieyou was silent, thinking of these complicated things, he felt his head was half big, and he lay down on the table weakly.

Lie Yan poured her a cup of tea: "However, now that you have two capable helpers, it shouldn't be too troublesome."

"two?"

Yin Jieyou raised his head, "Where did the two come from?"

Lie Yan glanced at it, "Why, are you planning to hide it from me?"

Yin Jieyou rolled his eyes and rolled his eyes, "Isn't it too late to tell you this! Besides, the princess and I are just a verbal agreement, each takes what he needs, and no one is anyone's helper." At this point, Yin Jieyou suddenly said with great interest: "Hey! Isn't your mother Princess Jingning, the eldest sister of the former emperor? You are all from the royal family. Do you know why the eldest princess hates the current queen mother so much? The queen mother Isn't it her adoptive mother..."

"Adoptive mother?" Lie Yan asked softly, "Among the royal family, family affection has always been weak. To say that she is an adoptive mother is actually just to better stabilize her position and plan what she wants." When Yin Jieyou wanted to distinguish carefully, he found that Lie Yan's expression was normal.

Yin Jieyou nodded: "That's true. Judging by the way the Empress Dowager treats Yun Jieyu, I know that she must not be a loving mother. Since she treats her own daughter like that, how can she really love other people's children?" Woolen cloth?"

Lie Yan gave her an approving look.

"About this, I have some news, I don't know if you want to know."

"Of course I want to know!"

Lie Yan smiled slightly, but took out an exquisitely wrapped gilt box from his bosom. The exquisite workmanship shone brightly, and Yin Jieyou couldn't help but be speechless, "What is it?"

"When I saw you last time, you said that the bracelet was too blinking and it was inconvenient to wear, so I found a new one for you. Here, look." As Lie Yan spoke, he opened the box and saw a light blue silk bracelet. In the padded box, there was a bird-shaped forehead ornament carved from crystal clear suet jade, and Lie Yan said again: "Although this forehead ornament is carved from high-quality suet jade, But in this imperial capital full of riches and honors, it is also a very common thing, so it suits your heart?"

Yin Jieyou glanced at it lightly, didn't go to take it, and said: "I don't actually like wearing jewelry, and it's always inconvenient to do things." And the original bracelet was only made because I missed the 21st century. After wearing it, now that I have been here for ten years, those longings have faded away.

Lie Yan closed the box and pushed it in front of Yin Jieyou, "Don't look at the ordinary materials and the extremely inconspicuous style, but it is also a unique thing in the world. You will regret it if you don't!"

"Hmm..." Yin Jieyou casually snorted.

Lie Yan wanted to make a fool of herself, but seeing her like this, she was afraid that her appetite would be tantalized for a long time. She really didn't care about the uniqueness, so she suppressed her mood and said with a smile: "The sheep fat jade book that made this forehead ornament is also very ordinary. It's just that when I was looking for it, it was soaked in a pool of deep water, and in that pool of deep water, there happened to be a water ganoderma that can cure all kinds of poisons, and I don't know how long it has been soaked... I After taking the jade and roasting it in a pill furnace with herbs, I found a master to carve it, so this forehead ornament can resist hundreds of poisons."

"Oh?" Yin Jieyou wondered, and it was rare for him to be interested, "In this way, it is indeed unique, then, thank you."

"polite!"

Yin Jieyou said: "Now it's time to tell me, have you got any news?"

"Hey..." Lie Yan sighed, tsk-tsk: "I'm giving you a gift, not only must I beg you, but I have to exchange it with a secret..." It seemed very sad.

Yin Jieyou couldn't help but rolled his eyes, "I haven't officially visited my aunt when she brought her back, so how can I have time to talk nonsense with you here? If you don't talk, then I'll go back first and wait for what you want to say." Let's talk about it later."

Seeing that she was about to get up immediately, Lie Yan got serious: "It's just a joke, sit down."

Yin Jieyou glanced at him speechlessly, and poured him a cup of tea, and sure enough, Lie Yan showed a knowing look in his eyes.

"In the palace, there are many secret things. If it weren't for chance, I would not have known about it." Lie Yan pushed the box in front of Yin Jieyou. His mother is Concubine Shuang. Although this Concubine Shuang was born in a family, she grew up in the Jianghu. She has both the graceful beauty of a family woman and the free and easy heroism of the children of the Jianghu. , Accidents happened many times, many times even endangered his life, although the late emperor favored him, he was well guarded, and he came here several times without any danger, but the root of the disease fell to this body, and later he died of serious illness, and then passed away. "

Yin Jieyou said: "Isn't this still the official statement?"

Lie Yan shook his head: "No, when Concubine Shuang died, the first emperor was not in the palace, and Empress Dowager Lin happened to be in the palace at that time."

A flash of clarity flashed across Yin Jieyou's eyes. I'm afraid that the Empress Dowager Lin used some means to harm Concubine Shuang. In this way, the Empress Dowager is the eldest princess' mother-killing enemy, so it is!

The two chatted about some things in Beijing, and when they were full, Yin Jieyou suddenly said: "That day...do you have something to do?"
