General Raiders

Dissatisfied, after this reward, he felt a lot more relaxed, and he didn't feel so guilty anymore.

Mu Ziyue drove back to the sleeping hall.Yun Xi pushed Mu Chengze: "The emperor rewarded me with those materials, and you can take them back later. The new clothes I'm making in my house will be brought to you when you get them."

Mu Chengze shook his head: "The material is for my cousin, I can't take it."

But Yun Xi said: "The emperor gave it to me and it's mine. Is it possible that I'm not allowed to give it away? If you tell you to take it, you can take it, and confiscate all nonsense, and I won't give you anything!"

He pointed at the things he bought from the market threateningly. Mu Chengze couldn't resist Yun Xi's sudden cheating. Those things are now the treasures of the sixth prince, so he had to be honest. Yun Xi can do whatever he asks. As cute as you can be, Yun Xi couldn't help laughing to herself, the Sixth Prince still has a bit of a child's heart.

The news about the emperor rewarding the sixth prince spread again. It turned out that the Zhou family was demoted, and several families were quietly hiding in bed.Don't think that when Zhou was a noble concubine, even the noble concubine Xu Huang was ignored, everyone was rushing to flatter her, but secretly there were quite a few people who were jealous and jealous.

If it is an ordinary concubine, it will stop here.But Mrs. Zhou didn't know what kind of tricks she used, and within a few days, she was serving as bed servant and was given a title again, like a piece of brown sugar, which can't be beaten and pinched constantly.

The people in the palace talked about the Zhou family in private, and now it is said that the emperor has rewarded the sixth prince generously. This is the second time that the sixth prince has been rewarded. The people in the palace always feel that the emperor's attitude towards the sixth prince is different now. ...

There are also rumors that the emperor rewarded the six princes one after another, and the next step is to promote Chen nobleman to be a concubine, but he has attracted most of the firepower concentrated on Zhou's body.

This is simply using the Sixth Prince and Chen Guiren as a shield for the newly released Concubine Zhou Hui, and it is very likely that it is the meaning of His Majesty the Emperor...

Yun Xi was sullen, no wonder Mu Ziyue was so generous to the sixth prince.He was a little bit aggrieved for the sixth prince. There was a question that had been circling in his mind for a long time. There were many unfavored concubines in the palace, but no matter how unfavored concubines were, they would not be ignored by everyone, let alone Chen. The nobleman also gave birth to a prince.

According to the old rule of the Great Chu, whoever gives birth to a prince will be rewarded, and Chen Guiren's status has not changed until now, and there are not other nobles and young masters who are born as maidservants in the palace. At least they are not like Chen Guiren, as if He was deliberately suppressed - this person can make the entire harem, including the imperial concubine and the empress dowager, ignore him, except Mu Ziyue, who doesn't want to do what he thinks.

Yun Xi has already gained King Jing's trust, so in order to facilitate things, she borrowed part of the manpower in the palace from King Jing.As the person who helped Mu Ziyue participate in the seizure of the heir, Mu Ziqi also had an eyeliner in the palace, but the entire palace was under the control of the emperor, and the power of respecting the king was very limited.Yunxi ordered these people to investigate Chen Guiren's experience after entering the palace, but she only learned that she had been a servant girl in Yongshou Palace, and found nothing else, so Yunxi had no choice but to turn her attention to Li Chengfeng for help.

It's about the emperor's secrets, Li Chengfeng pondered over and over again: "Actually, I can't say for sure. The emperor really hates Chen Guiren, but he never revealed the reason..."

Yun Xi saw that he showed his breath, and hurriedly said: "I just want to help the Sixth Highness a little bit. If there is a reason, maybe it will be easier."

Li Chengfeng hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice and said: "This old slave still remembers that the day Chen Guiren was favored was the day of Empress Xiaoyi's funeral."

That's all he said, but that's enough.

Yun Xi Mao Sai suddenly understood.It turned out that Empress Xiaoyi died young, and Mu Ziyue would bathe and fast every year on her memorial day, read a few scriptures for Empress Xiaoyi, and even declared to the outside world that she had never let Empress Xiaoyi go in her heart, and the harem would never have a queen.According to the truth, Mu Ziyue would not invite the harem on the day of Empress Xiaoyi's funeral, but that year he got drunk and spoiled Chen Guiren.

Regardless of whether Chen Guiren did it intentionally or not, Mu Ziyue absolutely cannot accept this fact. He promised the deep affection for Empress Xiaoyi in front of the world, but was broken by a drunkenness. As an emperor, he certainly would not Blame myself, so the only ones who bear this stain must be Chen Guiren, and later the sixth prince...

Perhaps in his eyes, the two of them just kept reminding him of the existence of this stain. No wonder, he would not hesitate to say to Yun Xi that "I don't like Cheng Ze very much", even though he had seen the sixth prince wearing old clothes a few times before. There was no reaction either... Because of his dislike, everyone in the palace kept their mouths shut. Who would take the risk of offending the emperor to control two people who have nothing to do with him?

Li Chengfeng said: "This old slave is just a guess, not a conclusion. It's good that Lord Hou heard about it."

Yun Xi said: "I understand... I won't say anything."

Li Chengfeng was relieved, but Yunxi was in trouble.Li Chengfeng is a cautious person, and according to his understanding of Mu Ziyue, this is probably the reason.It's just that Mu Ziyue would never admit it personally, and no one would be foolish enough to check with Mu Ziyue.The sixth prince in the previous life suffered a lot because of this, and in this life, Yun Xi was unwilling to be reconciled to the sixth prince being treated like this, but even if he knew the reason, he still had nothing to do.Empress Xiaoyi is Mu Ziyue's reverse scale. Judging by the degree of concubine Zhou's favor, it is actually hard to imagine how much Mu Ziyue loves Empress Xiaoyi, but at least in the eyes of the people of the world and Mu Ziyue, his true love is Empress Xiaoyi is right. Any concubine who dared to offend Empress Xiaoyi in the past would be thrown into limbo by Mu Ziyue, and Chen Guiren is still staying in the Chuxiu Palace. It may be because of the blessing of the sixth prince...

Looking back, Li Chengfeng first advised Yunxi not to plead for the sixth prince, and hinted at him in his words, but Yunxi didn't think too much at that time.Now that he knew it, looking back, he never regretted his original choice.Although this life can't help him fundamentally, let's try our best to protect the sixth prince and leave the palace safely.

Yunxi ordered the people in the palace to protect the side hall of Chuxiu Palace as much as possible, because there are few people in the side hall of Chuxiu Palace, it is not easy to put too many people in, otherwise it would be too obvious.At this moment, a servant found a relationship and found another way out, so Yunxi transferred a servant named Wang Xiaohuan to join in, and informed the sixth prince in advance.

Mu Chengze readily agreed, this is a good time, Yunxi uses the people outside Chuxiu Palace to create opportunities, and he can also let go and toss those people with ulterior motives in Chuxiu Palace, making them want to leave, and in the future Substitution is more convenient.

As for the Zhou family who was once again favored, Yun Xi's heart is like a mirror.How could it be such a coincidence that Mu Ziyue just stepped into Yongshou Palace, and saw her and the seventh prince copying the scriptures. Just think about how the third prince, who was demoted to dormant with the Zhou family, has become fierce again recently. This was all done on purpose, but I don't know whether it was the third prince's idea or Zhou's own idea... But the prince is not so easy to be suppressed.

Recently, the fourth prince, Mu Chengjun, also had secret movements.According to Zhao Yun's report from the spies planted in the fourth prince's mansion, the fourth prince has recently been in contact with the minister of the Ministry of Rites. The servant of the Ministry of Rites was promoted to Minister after Mu Chengjun ascended the throne, and his daughter also entered the palace and became Mu Chengjun's noble concubine. It can be seen that this servant must be the confidant of the fourth prince in the future, and right now, the Ministry of Rites is in the hands of Prince Mu Chenghong. Last time... the last time the prince showed his favor through the censor, Yunxi voted for Li Baotao, and let the spies "unintentionally" leak the relationship between the minister of rites and Mu Chengjun to the servants of the prince's mansion.

What if when the snipe and the clam are fighting, they also push the fisherman behind them into the water?Maybe the fisherman will also have his eye pecked by a snipe and his hand caught by a clam.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the minister of the Ministry of Rites to expose the servant in court, publicly denouncing him as suspected of accepting bribes, and took out an account book as proof.Mu Chenghong immediately seconded the proposal, and the servant was dismissed for investigation. Mu Chengjun's face was pale for several days, and it was rare for Mu Chengluo not to confront Mu Chenghong on this matter. It seems that the fourth prince who has been hiding in the dark Let the prince and the third prince ring the alarm bells, and the fourth prince is really troubled.

As for how the account book used as evidence came about, whether it was true or not, Yun Xi was not interested in inquiring about it.

22. Thunder

In a blink of an eye, the Lantern Festival arrives.

The more Muzi liked the excitement, he ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to hang lanterns made by skilled craftsmen everywhere in the palace.These lanterns have different shapes and are beautiful, and each one is inscribed with anagrams.Mu Ziyue ordered that no matter who guesses correctly, the lantern will belong to him, so almost half of the people in the palace are guessing the lantern riddles.

On such a festive day, the palace seemed to be full of stars in the sky. Even the queen mother who had been recuperating in Shoukang Palace for many years came out to join in the fun. With the support of Concubine Xu Huanggui herself, she happily went to enjoy the radiance. colorful lanterns.

Mu Ziyue called the emperor's relatives into the palace to have fun together as usual, Yunxi ate some Lantern Festival served in the house, and sat quietly for a while, because she didn't have to go to Shaohua Palace during the festival, so she didn't go to Shaohua Palace.

After a while, King Jing brought the two brothers Mu Chengwen and Mu Chenghao to come.Mu Chenghao is eccentric, but he is not good at guessing lantern riddles. He failed to guess several riddles in a row, and was ridiculed by Mu Chengwen, so he begged Yunxi to help him.

Yun Xi picked out a lotus lantern that Mu Chenghao had coveted for a long time. The lantern was made of high-quality red yarn, and the petals were decorated with countless pearls.Yun Xi said without hesitation: "It's the word An."

Immediately a servant next to him congratulated: "Congratulations, Lord Marquis, you guessed it right."

The lotus lantern was taken down and handed to Yunxi, who gave it to Mu Chenghao.Mu Chenghao was so happy that he jumped three feet high, he smiled complacently at Mu Chengwen, immediately raised the lotus lantern, and went to show off to others.

Yun Xi spoke a few words with King Jing, far away
