[Red Mansions] Concubine Counterattack System

Seeing that Si Shao was not as angry as she imagined, Zhang Guiren was very puzzled, and asked urgently, "Have you heard, Your Majesty? Our child was killed by the queen! She killed me!"

"Is there any evidence?" Si Shao listened to her words, his attitude remained unchanged, as if he was indifferent to it.

Zhang Guiren's face was full of disbelief. The child was lost three years ago. They moved from the palace to the palace and replaced many servants. Where can she find evidence?How could there be any evidence?Doesn't it count as nothing without evidence?She clutched her belly and staggered out of bed, fell to the ground, and hurriedly explained, "Yes, I have no proof! It's been so long, I can't find any proof, but I heard with my own ears that the Queen and Nanny Fang Mama said it, I heard it! The queen also said that only she is worthy of giving birth to the emperor's eldest son, and she said that she would not let others have a chance..."

Si Shao looked a little colder, but he just asked, "Did anyone around you hear it?"

"...No." Zhang Guiren slumped to the ground, full of bewilderment, she knew everything by herself, she had no evidence, and without evidence, everything was a false accusation.Who told her to frame the queen with pearl powder first?Who would believe her now?

Si Shao turned his fingers twice, his voice was still cold, "I will investigate what you said, but it has nothing to do with your assassination of Concubine Shu. You hate the queen, and you framed the queen to take revenge on her. It's all about Concubine Shu and my emperor's son." It doesn't matter, and you don't need to act innocent at this time. Back then, your father tried every means to get you selected, so do you know that you will bring trouble to the whole family today?"

"It's none of my father's business! Your Majesty! It's none of his business!" Zhang Guiren suddenly raised his head, his fingernails dug deep into the palm of his hand, and the previous courage to avenge the child disappeared instantly. No trace, replaced by boundless fear.

Si Shao didn't look at her again, and said in a cold voice: "Fushun, pass the decree, the nobleman Zhang poisoned the prince and framed the empress, the crime is unforgivable, and he gave poisoned wine. His father and daughter are not strict, and he is dismissed from office. Become an official."

Zhang Guiren was stunned by the fright. He came back to his senses when he saw Si Shao walking out. He crawled out on both hands and feet, screaming, "Your Majesty! You can't do this! Concubine Shu was not injured at all, no one was killed, I didn't Killing her! The queen told me to do this! It was the queen who killed my child! It was all done by the queen, the emperor... oh oh!"

Fushun frowned and asked the two eunuchs to gag Zhang Guiren, and together with the fainting nanny and the trembling palace maid, they guarded and detained him.Today's Zhang Guiren is crying, how can he still be half beautiful?Reduced to a crazy woman!In fact, acting is really crazy!Fushun looked at her as if he was looking at a dead person, "Mr. Zhang, it's not that the emperor is cruel, it's because you are too big. You tried to get rid of the prince in the name of revenge, and you wanted to gain sympathy from the emperor? Now whereabouts?" It's all your fault for what happened to you."

He flicked his whisk and stepped back a little, "Come here, give me poisoned wine!"

In private, Fushun had already carefully investigated the matter. The empress did not instigate Zhang Guiren, at most it was a hint, but what kind of crime was a hint?In the final analysis, it was Zhang Guiren who had a dark mind and single-handedly planned this conspiracy, and no one else could be blamed.The queen carelessly let herself get caught up in it, and handed over the matter to the emperor, so there was no need for any certification and confrontation. After finding out who was the mastermind, she just dealt with it directly, and a little nobleman didn't need to confess to anyone.

Xiao Anzi, Fushun's apprentice, brought an exquisite tray nimbly. He looked at the small glass of poisoned wine in the center of the tray and tried his best not to shake his hands.Taking a deep breath, Xiao Anzi turned his head to look at Master, seeing Master nodding, he stepped forward, gritted his teeth and pinched Zhang Guiren's mouth, picked up the wine glass and poured it down for her!

"Ah—! Don't! Help—help! Ah—it hurts!" Zhang Guiren kept crying and struggling, and the poisonous wine was still poured into her stomach. It was as if it was scorching on the fire, as if it was no longer my own.She couldn't even vomit out the poisoned wine, she could only roll and twitch all over the floor, the pain was so painful that she didn't know where to cover it.

When Xiao Anzi was yelled at by her, he dropped his wine glass in shock, and stepped back reflexively to stand beside Fushun.Fushun looked at him blankly, then suddenly reached out and patted his shoulder, and said earnestly: "Little Anzi, there is never a shortage of blood and tears in this palace. Good people don't necessarily have long lives, and bad people don't necessarily have short lives. You You are my apprentice, I have high expectations for you, don't let Master down."

There was a roar in Zhang Guiren's ears, and his sanity gradually became blurred. Finally, he grabbed his neck with both hands, and yelled loudly, "Queen, you must die! I curse you that life is better than death——!"

Zhang Guiren's voice stopped abruptly, Xiao Anzi stared at her dead body, bleeding from all seven orifices like a ghost, this is the person he killed, but this is also the person ordered by the emperor!He suddenly understood why the master had to do this with his own hands. He would not be able to integrate into the harem without experiencing these things. There are no clean people in the harem, and there are no people whose hands are not stained with blood. He can't be afraid, and he doesn't need it. I'm afraid, he won't harm others, but he wants to protect himself and live for a long time!

Fushun looked at the calm young apprentice with satisfaction, and heaved a sigh of relief. He followed Si Shao at a young age, and walked around the harem for countless times in the Palace of the King of Hell. Now it's the apprentice's turn. Fortunately, he has the right vision to teach the apprentice to be a weak and delicate flower.

"Okay, Mrs. Zhang's confidants don't need to stay, just send Qiutang and Cuiyu on the road after a round of torture, and the rest will be demoted to the clothing bureau." Fushun smiled and walked out quickly, shaking his whisk. I want to rush back to serve the emperor.

"Yes, master, go slowly." Xiao Anzi respectfully sent him away, and calmly directed the aftermath, as if he had matured after this incident.

Fushun returned to Shangyuan Palace, quickly took a bath and changed clothes to get rid of the smell of blood on his body, took the tea prepared by the palace staff and quietly put it beside the imperial case.Si Shao took a sip of tea and continued to review the memorial, sometimes nodding in relief, sometimes grimly sneering, keeping the royal brush in his hand, and a line of concise Zhu criticism quickly appeared on the memorial.

Seeing the papers on the funeral of the former prince by the Ministry of Rituals, Si Shao put down his pen and took a sip of tea, meditated for a moment and said to himself, "I'm gone, and I suddenly feel better. If I knew today, why didn't I delegate power early? It wouldn't have happened." When father and son turn against each other, huh... Yizhong? I will follow your wishes!"

In the memorial, Si Shao granted the title of "Prince Yizhong" to the former crown prince. After thinking about it, he took out a blank imperial decree, and named the second brother, who had no title, as Chengjun King, and the third emperor's brother, Shunjun King, as Zhongshun Prince, the younger brothers will not be sealed for the time being if they are underage and have no achievements.This is also a compensation for the grounded second prince. It would be inappropriate for the Supreme Emperor to pretend to be a loving father and release the second prince.

Fushun bowed his head next to him, trying to blend himself into the shadows. The emperor hated the father-son love drama of the emperor the most. He obviously never cared about the princes, but he wanted to show a loving father from time to time. Thinking about how to trip the emperor.It's a pity that the emperor is much better than the Taishanghuang imagined. Now that he has abdicated, he can no longer interfere in the government affairs.

It was already late at night when Si Shao finished reviewing all the memorials. He stood up and stretched his muscles, and walked to the inner room to take a shower and go to bed. "Is everything done?"

"Yes." Fushun followed behind him and whispered what he would do to Zhang Guiren and all the servants.

Si Shao nodded, remembering Zhang Guiren's crying words about the queen harming her, he frowned, "Did you pay attention to the queen's movements when you were in the palace?"

Fushun understood that he was asking if he had paid attention to the secrets of the queen, side concubines, and concubines, but at that time the control of the back house was mainly in the internal and external transmission of news, all about the former dynasty, fearing that there would be spies from the emperor and princes, I really didn't pay much attention to the internal struggle among the women's family members. After all, they were fighting for the heir under the eyes of the Supreme Emperor and the Crown Prince. With limited manpower and energy, it was impossible to cover everything.

Fushun considered his words carefully, and replied carefully: "Master, before and after Zhang's pregnancy, the master happened to go to another place to do business. I don't know the cause and effect. Only Zhang said that the child-avoiding medicine had seen the mother Fang who was next to the empress. I took it, it was sent from the queen's mother's family."

Si Shao closed his eyes and soaked in the bathtub. In fact, he believed eighty percent of what Mrs. Zhang said. Although he didn't pay much attention to the women in the back house, he still knew their temperaments.Especially the empress has always liked to be with the empress dowager, and she will definitely not let the eldest son be born.He has always guessed it, but he has never sent anyone to investigate it. First, he doesn't want to startle the enemy with the relationship between the queen and the queen mother. Second, what if those women can't protect themselves, so what if they are born?You can't expect him to stare at the harem all day, right?

He lost his mother and concubine since he was a child, and struggled to survive with his younger sister in the harem, knowing that only when he grew up through the struggle can he be alone.The Tian family has no father and son, and the Tian family has no husband and wife. His concubines and princes will fight for most of their lives, until he dies, and when the next emperor appears, the harem will change to another group of fighters.

He thought about these things very early on, so he didn't look into them and didn't care about them. It was much better than other emperors to help someone for no reason.If he really finds out the true face of each concubine, he may never be able to visit the harem again. Who can easily be happy looking at a pretentious femme fatale?It's better to be confused and only look at the final result. No matter whether you go to the harem or not, victory only belongs to the person who goes to the end. Scheming is a kind of ability.

But the queen's methods are obviously far worse than the queen mother's back then!Just after being sealed up, I wanted to plot against others, but in the end I got myself involved. If there are rumors that the queen has no virtue, the empress is at odds, or even the empress is abolished, the Supreme Emperor and those ministers who do not obey discipline will have something to arrange !No matter what dynasty the empress represents the face of the emperor, now the empress has simply become a useless chess piece that can only get in the way and cannot be discarded!

Si Shao frowned again, "Going to Chengyuan Palace tomorrow, the empress is tired and unwell, and she is recuperating for half a month, so no one should disturb her. The palace affairs will be taken care of by Concubine Shu, and Liu Guiren will be assisted by nobleman Fang. Repeatedly made insulting remarks to the queen and concubine Shu, was confined for three months, and copied female morality training a hundred times."

Fushun quickly agreed, the queen can't punish at will, but it's normal to feel unwell now that it's cold today.In half a month, when the queen regains the palace power, the harem will not be in such a good situation as it is now!He couldn't help but sighed in his heart, it was the first time in the palace, the queen could place nails everywhere without a trace by relying on her power, how much advantage did she have over others?In the end, I didn't get a firm foothold, so I tossed like this. This time, even if Master Lin didn't seize half, he could get one-third of the power, and Liu Guiren and Fang Guiren could more or less benefit themselves. In the future If the queen wants to rectify, how can she tell who's eyeliner is whose?The queen is really stealing chickens this time!

Fushun personally helped Si Shao wipe and put on his clothes. Before going to bed, Si Shao suddenly remembered the matter of deploying manpower. Standing by the bed, he turned around and asked, "How is Madam Deng serving Concubine Shu?"

Fushun took a careful look at Si Shao's expression, and replied truthfully: "This afternoon, I happened to pass a letter with Madam Deng, and Madam Deng was very respectful to Master Lin, and... Nanny Zhou asked Madam Deng at noon. I made a taboo list of ingredients." After speaking, Fushun quickly shut up, holding his breath and waiting for Si Shao's reaction.

Si Shao was stunned for a moment, thinking that the imperial physician said that pearl powder and emerald Luoyu soup cannot be eaten together, he suddenly burst out laughing, shook his head and lay down under the quilt, "It's been a long time, we are going to run an errand for your Master Lin today , this turn is far away, and you dare to talk to Madam Deng."

Seeing him smile, Fushun felt relieved, and hurriedly said something flattering, "Master Lin is kind to Master Lin, so Master Lin treats the slaves as his own, and doesn't see any outsiders. If you say that you are a mother, you are strong. Master Lin She loves the little prince very much, and I heard Madam Deng say that Master Lin has to embroider scriptures for the queen mother and make clothes for the little prince, so he has no time to spare."

"Yeah, when she was pulled into this vortex back then, she didn't have a good time."

Fushun couldn't make excuses for this, and just stood aside respectfully.

Si Shaojing continued for a while and said, "Ruoying also often copies Buddhist scriptures for the queen mother, let's go see the queen mother some other day, she likes Buddhist scriptures so much, she should clean up a Buddhist hall in Anshou Palace, Quan Dangzhen respects her old man."

"Yes, the servant will make arrangements tomorrow."

"Well, tell Madam Deng to take good care of Concubine Shu and the little prince. They will also stay in Yonghua Palace in the future, and nothing will happen."

Fushun bowed and agreed, seeing that Si Shao closed his eyes, he hurriedly covered him with a quilt and blew out the candle light.When he retreated outside the door, he was still thinking, those people will stay in Yonghua Palace in the future, and it is obvious that Concubine Shu is their second master. Comparing Concubine Wu and Guiren Zhang, Concubine Shu is obviously more suitable to control the harem, and she is pregnant with a prince. I am afraid that the weight in the emperor's heart will become more and more important in the future!

Lin Feiyu didn't know these things yet, she was a pregnant woman who was most afraid of not having a good rest, so she was already asleep when Zhang's side called the imperial physician.Nanny Zhou and the others had already been instructed not to call her if there were no accidents, so Lin Feiyu slept until dawn, and then heard the news of Mrs. Zhang's death, and also received an order to take charge of the harem.

【Ding!Sub-quest: Expose Zhang’s assassination—completed, reward the host with 30 points. 】

Lin Feiyu, who was in a good mood, had a big appetite, and used half a plate of pastries for breakfast. This matter was finally exposed by her operation!In fact, she was doing it for the mission, and at the same time, she was testing Si Shao's bottom line. With Si Shao's character, it was impossible to believe that she was a pure white lotus, so it was better to show some tricks than to cover up.Immaculateness can scare people, and imperfection can reassure those in power.Even if Si Shao was displeased this time, she is still a victim of the whole incident, and she will not be blamed. She will just turn around in the future. Fortunately, she guessed right, and Si Shao appreciates her actions!

Sister Zhou served her to rinse her mouth with a smile, and was very excited about the favor of the master, "Master, although it is only half a month, it is enough for us to do many things."

"That's right. Put two people in each of the empty palaces. Keep a low profile. Newcomers will be recruited after the general election. You must know what your opponents are like. Arrange some people for the Queen Mother, um...keep an eye on Jia." Yuanchun." Lin Feiyu was thinking about making arrangements, the task of destroying the queen mother's plan hadn't been completed yet, and the only one jumping around beside the queen mother was Jia Yuanchun. Interrupting her back path is the best way to implicate the Wang family so that they cannot stand up.

"By the way, pay attention to who Jia Yuanchun is in contact with on weekdays. The Wang family has a lot of grudges with our Lin family. If you have the opportunity, find out who they sent the news to. The palace does not need the Wang family's eyeliner. Also, the Supreme Emperor must not Move, that's not something we can touch."

"Yes, master, this slave will remember." Nanny Zhou kept all her words in her heart. This half month is a rare opportunity for the master, and there must be no mistakes, "Master, Liu Guiren and Fang Guiren , do you want to distribute the royal power to them?"

Lin Feiyu smiled, "Naturally, we have to share, and we need more points. All the trivial and tiring things should be given to them. Distribution, tailoring, hairpins, warehouses, gardens, oh, and shopping All the rest will be distributed to them, we just need to manage the palace people well and arrange the palace people reasonably, anyway, I'm pregnant, so I can't take care of those worrying things."

Nanny Zhou couldn't help laughing, even if it's a lucrative job, what can I do for half a month?After half a month, everything has to be handed over to the queen, and the only one who can take advantage of it is the deployment of palace servants, who will plant eyeliner for her to gather power.But on the bright side, it seems that the master has no love for power at all, and he trusts the two nobles very much, no one can tell the truth.

"The master is resting, and the servant will make arrangements."

Lin Feiyu drank the tonic soup stewed by Madam Deng herself, and decided to learn from Madam Deng when she had time. precious!

In Chengyuan Palace, the empress listened to the emperor's dictation with a froze smile, her eyes darkened and she almost fainted!

Nanny Fang helped her back in time, and squeezed the queen tightly. The queen calmed down when her arm hurt, and Fushun was still watching, she must not lose her composure! "Eunuch Lao Fu is here. On behalf of my palace, I would like to thank the emperor for his concern. I will definitely take good care of my body and get better soon."

Fushun had a respectful smile on his face, as if he was very close to the empress, "The empress only needs to take care of her at ease, and the palace affairs will be taken care of by the empress Shu and the two nobles, so you don't have to worry about it."

The queen's complexion became more and more ugly, and she still had to keep a smile on her face. It seemed that the emperor wanted her to be grounded, and she couldn't even hope to get better soon!What did Mrs. Zhang say before she died?Why did the emperor do this?Do you want to divide her royal power?The queen has no master, she is still young after all, and she is not so calm after doing something wrong, and now the emperor is obviously punishing her, which makes her panic and even fear.

When the news of Fushun arrived, he immediately bowed respectfully and left. The queen's jokes are not good-looking. If the queen loses her composure in front of him without paying attention, he will become a thorn in the queen's eyes!

Fushun left with the things needed to handle the palace affairs, and the gate of Chengyuan Palace closed slowly, signaling that everyone should not disturb the queen's rest.

The moment the door closed, the queen suddenly softened as if she was frightened.Mother Fang was so startled that she hurriedly supported her, "Jinxiang, Jinru, hurry up! Put the master on the bed quickly! Tell the imperial physician!"

"No! Don't call me the imperial physician!" The queen gasped, clutching Nanny Fang's wrist, trembling with anger, "Aren't you afraid that you won't be ashamed enough? If you call the imperial physician at this time, everyone in the palace will laugh at me!"

The queen pushed them away, stumbled and threw all the decorations in front of her to the ground, "What's wrong with you? What's wrong with me?! He's grounding me! It's grounding! For that bitch! They're all bitch!"

Mother Fang was terrified, and hurried to the door to look outside, "Jinru is guarding the door, don't let anyone get close!"

"Yes, mother!" Jinru sent all the nearby palace people down with a sullen face, guarded at the door and stared at the surroundings seriously, and sighed silently, the master's scolding just now was probably heard by everyone, this time Maybe it has already started to spread to the outside world!

Nanny Fang turned her head and saw that the queen was almost tripped by the stool, her heart almost jumped out, "Hey! My master, please be careful! Jinxiang, clean up quickly, why are you serving the master?!"

Jinxiang was also terrified, and she came back to her senses after being drunk by Nanny Fang, and started to tidy up the debris in a hurry, even daring not to make a sound when she scratched her finger.

Nanny Fang supported the Queen hard and walked into the inner room, "Master! Calm down, Master! Don't get so angry, it's only half a month, and once the half month is over, they have to obediently hand over the palace power, yours. No one can shake your status! Don't get angry with the emperor, you will have to pay for the loss if you annoy the emperor?"

The queen lay on the bed and burst into tears, "Nurse, I'm the queen! So many people watched, but I was grounded, and let that Concubine Shu take over the palace power. Who will obey me in the future? Who still respects me? Why do those ministers and wives still take me seriously?!"

Nanny Fang couldn't help but also shed tears, "No, no! Master, don't think about it, if it's cold today, isn't it common to get a cold? It won't be rumored outside. It's the emperor who cares about you, half a month will pass soon, it's all right."

"How can it be all right? What did the emperor say? He said that I am tired. I have just been crowned empress. The queen mother has not been tired after taking care of palace affairs for so many years. I became tired and sick as soon as I took over. Doesn't this mean that I The incompetent can't even manage the palace affairs? Concubine Shu can manage her body, but this palace can't, what will others think?" The queen buried her face in the quilt and cried bitterly.

Nanny Fang didn't know how to persuade her master, she naturally knew these reasons, but the matter had come to this point, it was useless to entangle with these things, she had to find a way to turn around.The emperor was really fascinated, how long did it take to hand over the palace affairs to Concubine Shu?When Concubine Shu gives birth to the prince, will she snatch the palace power from the master?The master lived so carefully and felt so bitter, why couldn't the emperor see it?

"Those whores! I won't let them go!" The queen's eyes were red, she hated Lin Feiyu and Liu Guiren, and even Fang Guiren felt disgusted.

Mother Fang couldn't persuade the queen, so she had to fetch water to clean her face, thinking that it would be good to let her vent, if she was bored in her heart, she would be afraid of getting sick.

The whole Chengyuan Palace was empty that day, the palace people huddled in their rooms and did not dare to show their faces. There were only a few confidantes in the room to wait on them, and all the furnishings were thrown clean, looking extremely desolate, which made the queen feel even more frightened. I can't forget the moment when the door was closed, her whole body was icy cold, as if she had been thrown into a cold palace.
