Story of Yanxi Palace: Red Seal Spring Star

After returning, Fu Heng told Yingluo what Ye Tianshi said.Yingluo thought for a while, then said: I think he did it for Concubine Rong.Fu Heng's eyes flashed, and he looked at her in surprise.Yingluo said: Didn't you say that Concubine Rong went to the racecourse before he fell off the horse that day.Fu Heng was very surprised by her sensitivity, but after thinking about it, he felt that what she said was probably true.Yingluo went on to say: The emperor suspected that someone wanted to pick on Elder Brother about the matter of falling off the horse, but why did Fourth Elder Brother fall off the horse the day Concubine Rong went?

Fu Heng looked at her, his heart suddenly brightened, and said, "You mean, someone saw him talking to Concubine Rong... and then let him fall off the horse?"So the man who manipulated the horse was at the racecourse that day?Yingluo nodded and said: "Now I think this incident is by no means an accident. The people behind the scenes are planning to bring down Concubine Rong, the fifth elder brother and even the fourth elder brother.Fu Heng thought for a while and asked: But you didn't say that she should not be the queen, so who else?Yingluo said: There are many backstabbing in the harem, and many people are likely, such as Concubine Shu.

Fu Heng was taken aback: Concubine Shu?Yingluo said: With her temperament, she will definitely be jealous of Concubine Rong, and now she has an eleventh elder brother Yongxuan.Fu Hengdao: But Brother Eleven is still young.Yingluo said: I just think she is a possibility, but it may not be her.Or someone else did it, trying to blame the queen or her. Before the investigation is clear, I think everyone is suspicious, and the queen is not without it.

Fu Hengdao: There were guards and eunuchs present that day, so I will teach Hailancha to secretly investigate everyone who was at the racecourse that day. And no clues.It is absolutely impossible to tell the emperor how the fourth elder brother feels about Concubine Rong. If the emperor finds out, he will be furious, and the fourth elder brother will be very wronged.

Yingluo shook her head and said, "Yes, but why would the fourth elder brother have such unreasonable thoughts? I don't think Yong Qi would have such thoughts, and Concubine Rong has a lot of contact with him. Concubine Rong is about the same as me." Age, maybe ten years older than the fourth elder brother.Fu Hengdao: "The dragon gave birth to nine sons, each of which is different, but the master taught them all the same. You see, the emperor and Hong Zhou are far apart."

Yingluo sighed, and remembered for a moment that the pure noble concubine planned to make her fall off the horse that year, and she used her tricks. The emperor was so nervous about her, and said, "Si elder brother is also a motherless child. We must help him, and helping him is Help the emperor.Fu Hengdao: Well, Dr. Ye said that his medicine can't cure the root cause, and he needs heart medicine for his heart disease, but if he treats Concubine Rong...how can there be heart medicine?Even marrying Fujin won't work.

Yingluo said: "Master, you should go and find the person behind the scenes first, otherwise Concubine Rong and Fifth Brother will be in trouble. If my guess is right, there will be an article below."It is impossible for this person to know that Concubine Rong will go to the racecourse that day, so this poisonous plan has been laid out long ago, to frame Concubine Rong and Elder Brother.And if you tamper with the horse temporarily, the fourth elder brother will die!Fortunately, it's winter, so he will be lucky if he wears thick clothes!

Hearing what she said was very reasonable, Fu Heng was taken aback, pulled her towards her, and said, "Don't worry too much, huh?"Yingluo looked at him with a smile and said, "Well, don't worry, I will tell Concubine Rong as soon as possible and tell her to be careful. It's best for her not to see Yongqi recently, let alone tell Sister Hai. I haven't told her about the horse farm. Afraid that she would worry about Yongqi.Fu Heng nodded, then smiled and said: Concubine Shu probably doesn't have such thoughts, does she?

Yingluo shook her head and said, "Did you forget that when my sister was pushed down the stone steps by Concubine Gao, it was the bats attracted by deer blood?"Later I finally found out that it was Concubine Shu's plan for Concubine Gao, because Concubine Gao wanted to deal with her sister.Fu Heng nodded. If Rongyin hadn't suffered a miscarriage and fell into a coma back then, he and Yingluo might have been married long ago.

Yingluo said again: "Master, I know I'm suspicious, but the harem has never been peaceful, so I'd rather think a little more."Fu Heng circled her and said: That's why the emperor let you leave the harem.Yingluo said: Well, I understand a lot about his heart for me now, and I will repay him well.So I hope he doesn't have a relationship with Concubine Rong. Concubine Rong is a good person and has a good temper. I think she is very suitable to be with the emperor.But there are too many people who are jealous of Concubine Rong, and Concubine Jia was one of them before.Fu Heng nodded and said: "You are so beautiful."

Yingluo said: "The emperor understands, so he asked Concubine Rong to get close to the Empress Dowager through the matter of reconciliation, but if Concubine Rong is framed and has anything to do with Elder Brother, she will be very troublesome with the Empress Dowager."The person behind it is really vicious.It is impossible to frame the fifth elder brother, and the fourth elder brother is also fine. It is simply not to give up until the goal is achieved.Fu Heng said with a smile: We, Yingluo, will not give up until we reach our goal. With you around, this person will never be able to accomplish anything!Concubine Rong is also a smart person. After so many things, I believe she will not sit still and the emperor is not confused.

Hai Shi really felt very relaxed now, she no longer had to do the nun's boring homework and stay with some people whose words were tasteless.Yingluo still asked someone to decorate her house and yard, but that was only to avoid violating the imperial decree. She also likes the simple and clean tone. A well-behaved and obedient girl, she took care of the affairs of Yingluo's mansion when she left her courtyard, she basically talked about it, she was familiar with Xiaoquanzi and Pearl.

After hearing Pearl tell her about how Yingluo made her and Xiao Quanzi perfect, she couldn't help but laugh, and said: She is a thoughtful person!But she is also a nice person.I think Xiao Quanzi is very kind to you, and she is also a good master!Pearl smiled and said: "On the day of the wedding, the master is very happy!"She also shed tears, I know she thought of sister Mingyu.In fact, Xiao Quanzi and I are similar to before, we just live in the same room.He was nice to me before.Haishi said: You really don't feel wronged?Pearl shook her head and said, "Gu Jing, you used to be the emperor's concubine, aren't you alone now?"We're still alive without men.

Haishi laughed and said: "I really can't see, you honest girl is a transparent person."Alas, the emperor has never really looked at me, but luckily I have Yongqi.Pearl said: I heard from the master that the fifth elder brother is very smart and has a good-looking talent. The emperor values ​​it very much now. Aunt Jing, you are very lucky.Haishi smiled like a flower, and said: As long as he is safe, I don't want anything else.He is today thanks to Yingluo.Pearl said: Master is a good person, God knows, she and your lord are finally together!Haishi said: Your majesty is really doing the right thing!Pearl said: You are also a good person, good people will be rewarded.

Haishi said: Let me borrow your auspicious words, alas, I will meet Yong Qi soon, I am very nervous for some reason, he may not remember me as a mother, and he still has Concubine Rong now A mother who is much stronger than me.Pearl said: You worry too much, no matter how good Concubine Rong is, she can't compare to your mother-in-law.Haishi said: I heard from Yingluo that the emperor dotes on Concubine Rong very much now, and this is also Yongqi's good luck. Even if I am in the palace, Yongqi will have a hard time with my unfavored mother-in-law.Pearl said: But in this world, you are the one who loves him the most.Haishi said: I am a cowardly person, what is needed in the palace is a strong man.Since Concubine Rong is not fading, she must be strong. I am happy for Yongqi.

In the evening of this day, Concubine Rong went to the Hall of Mental Cultivation again. The emperor was very happy to see her here, so he stopped approving the papers and asked the eunuchs to disperse. He also asked Li Yu to pass an order to Fu Heng, saying that he would not come to the meeting today. , and then took her to Watts Hall.Li Yu thought to himself: This Concubine Rong is really too charming.Immediately call someone to pass the decree to Yujing Garden.The emperor and Concubine Rong were talking together on the couch, Concubine Rong said: Your Majesty, do you know the rumors in the palace recently?Since the emperor came back from outside the customs, he had never been to the harem during the two days when he summoned Concubine Rong to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.So he asked: What rumors?

Concubine Rong said: "Chen Bi said it, don't be angry, only Shen Bi dares to say it."The emperor nodded.Concubine Rong then said cautiously: "It's about Shen Bi and fifth elder brother."The emperor was furious: What?say something?Concubine Rong hurriedly got off the couch, knelt down in front of him, and said: "The emperor calm down!"The emperor quickly pulled her up and said: "It's none of your business, tell me what to say?"Concubine Rong said: Yes, they said that Shen Bi is young, the fifth elder brother is a prince who is about to grow up, and it is not suitable for Shen Bi to be his mother and concubine, saying... The emperor said: Tell me!Concubine Rong said: Yes, it is said that your majesty dotes on Shen Bi too much, and you don't even avoid such suspicions.The emperor snorted, and said: Who is this so bold, dare to criticize my decision?

Concubine Rong didn't speak, the emperor said: Who do you think?Concubine Rong said: Shen Bi didn't know who the person he mentioned at the beginning was, but now everyone in the palace is talking about it, so Shen Bi wants to ask for an order, so you take the fifth elder brother back, lest they say you.The emperor said slowly: Shen Bi, are you doing this to protect yourself?

Concubine Rong hurriedly knelt down and said: "The emperor calm down!"The concubine was thinking of the emperor, and the concubine was just ordered to go to the racecourse to watch the fifth elder brother ride and shoot. Such rumors spread in the palace. slander?The fifth elder brother is also innocent. Every time I meet him, it is either in public or with Concubine Qing present, and never alone in private. You can ask Concubine Qing and the elder brother who lives in Baoyuelou.Shen Bi thought that the rumor was because Shen Bi was born well.But no matter what the reason is, if you father and son are suspicious, Shen Bi is a sinner.

The emperor sighed, pulled her up, and pulled her into his arms, and Concubine Rong hugged him tightly.The emperor didn't speak, but Concubine Rong shed tears.Seeing her like this, the emperor wiped her tears.Li Yu happened to come in from the outside, seeing this scene, he was about to leave.The emperor let go of Concubine Rong and said: Li Yu, you keep it.Li Yu was startled, he didn't know why the emperor was angry, and seeing Concubine Rong's face covered with tears, he was even more surprised, and asked: Your Majesty, is there something wrong with Concubine Rong?Do you want the servant to invite the imperial physician?

Concubine Rong buried her head in the emperor's arms, not letting Li Yu see.The emperor hugged her and asked Li Yudao: "Do you think Concubine Rong will have anything to do with Fifth Elder Brother?"Li Yu was startled, knelt down and said: Your Majesty, where did you start?Concubine Rong is sincere to you, and she talks to the servants in public. The fifth elder brother has a good character, is talented, smart, respects the rules, and is loved by the queen mother. Which bastard said this?

The emperor laughed, pushed Concubine Rong and said: "Have you heard that, even Li Yu understands, how can I not understand?"Concubine Rong raised her head, looked at the emperor, and said: What do you mean... The emperor said: Shen Bi, just rest assured, I will make decisions for you.Concubine Rong said softly: Thank you, Your Majesty.But you must not hurt the harmony between father and son.The emperor said: What do you mean...Concubine Rong said in a low voice: Your majesty, about the racecourse... The emperor pondered for a while, then said: Isn't that the fourth elder brother?

Concubine Rong said: Yes, but why did the accident happen the day the concubine went?The emperor said: So what do you mean, someone wants to remind me that you went to the racecourse and that it has something to do with Yongqi by taking advantage of Si elder brother falling off the horse?Concubine Rong said: I don't know, the fourth elder brother is fine, but have you ever asked the fourth elder brother how he fell off the horse?The emperor pondered and said: Alright, I will ask him tomorrow.

Early the next morning, the emperor called Yongxie to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, saying that he wanted to ask him something, and asked Hai Lancha and Li Yu to stay aside.Yongxuan's heart was pounding, worrying whether the emperor knew what was on his mind.Seeing that his face was red and white, the emperor became suspicious and asked: Yongxuan, how did you fall off the horse that day?The fourth elder brother breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "The horse stumbled suddenly, and my son fell down and passed out."The emperor said: "Why did the horse stumble suddenly?"The fourth elder brother said: "I don't know, but I ran a few laps that day, and they were all good."The emperor snorted: You don't know?I see you know!

The fourth elder brother's heart was pounding again, feeling that the emperor knew his secret, so he didn't speak.The emperor said it again.He still didn't answer.The emperor was furious: Yongxuan!Oh it's you!The fourth elder brother was taken aback, immediately fell to his knees, and said: "Huang Ama, my son will never dare again, never dare again!"The emperor said: Why did you do this?The fourth elder brother said: My son... my son.... I can't speak for a while.The emperor said angrily: What on earth do you want to do?Seeing him stern and staring at him, the fourth elder brother became even more panicked and helpless, with cold sweat dripping down his forehead.

At this moment, Desheng came to report from outside, saying that the empress knew that the emperor was asking the fourth elder brother, and wanted to say something to the emperor.The emperor called in, and continued to look at Yongxuan who was kneeling on the ground.After Empress Nala came in, she also took a look at Yongxuan, and said to the emperor: Your Majesty, it was not Yongxuan's fault, it was the concubine who saw Yongxuan falling off the horse, and felt that someone had tampered with it, so she wanted to find out who was behind the scene , asked someone to deliberately spread rumors about Concubine Rong and Fifth Prince.

Yong Xie was taken aback. It turned out that the emperor was saying that he had spread the rumor, and it was not about his love for Concubine Rong. He hurriedly said: "Ama Huang, Yong Qi and Concubine Rong are definitely not there!"Concubine Rong went to the racecourse that day, stood and said a few words to Yong Qi, and then left, and there were so many people present.That rumor was not spread by my son, my son saw it clearly at the time, how could he spread such rumors?The emperor only looked at Nala, and asked: Empress, have you found out who is behind the scenes?Nala said: Yes, bring it up.

Two eunuchs escorted a person outside the hall.Also a eunuch.Standing beside him was Yongxuan's Haha Zhuzi Ketu.The queen said to Ketu: You tell the emperor.Ketu said: Yes.Then he knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, this eunuch is called Liu Cheng. He has always been at odds with the fourth elder brother and fifth elder brother in the elder brother's office. Later, the empress asked me what happened that day, and I remembered that this Liu Cheng also went to the horse farm at that time. It was he who tampered with the fourth elder brother's horse in the racecourse, and the fourth elder brother fell. The empress guessed that he would destroy the fourth elder brother's horse in the next step in order to cover up himself, so she would spread rumors about the fifth elder brother and Concubine Rong. I will no longer pay attention to the matter of the fourth elder brother falling off the horse, so the empress spread rumors in advance to catch him.

The emperor looked at Liu Cheng and asked: Is that so?Liu Cheng kowtowed like pounding garlic, and said: Yes, the slave was confused for a while!Seeing that Concubine Rong came to the racecourse that day, she thought it was a good opportunity to take revenge on the fourth elder brother and the fifth elder brother, so when the servant saw the fourth elder brother's horse coming, he shot a small stone on the fourth elder brother's horse's leg.Later, when I saw the rumors about the fifth elder brother spreading in the palace, I realized that the Dongchuang incident had happened, and I was extremely frightened, and was arrested by the empress.
