"The empress has lost her virtue and cannot inherit the destiny. Her seal and ribbon functions are temporarily delegated to Concubine Jing. As for the empress, she is under house arrest in Fengchen Palace until the outcome of the assassination case in the northern suburbs is resolved. Then we will deal with it differently."
After Emperor Yong made these arrangements, he led everyone to leave directly from here. After all, there are more important things to deal with now.
During this period of time, he has only been keeping the Chen family closed. Now that the failed assassination case at the northern suburbs prayer meeting has finally made progress at the Dali Temple, everyone in the Chen family can finally be taken into prison.
After Emperor Yong left, people took away Queen Min's phoenix seal, and waited until all honors were turned into smoke. People just quietly closed the door.
And as the door closed, Fengchen Palace, which had the best lighting, finally became dark.
The queen who had been deprived of her position looked like she had truly gone crazy.
When Qiu Wan, the chief attendant beside her, hugged her and cried, she just hugged the table leg and murmured, "Zhen'er is not afraid, not afraid, your mother will protect you."
Seeing her like that, no one was sad, but no matter how sad, the people staying in Fengchen Palace had too much to take care of themselves, and no one cared about the fate of the master and servant in the future.
"Have you heard? The Chen family has been arrested now. Wasn't the Chen family sealed off by officials a few days ago? Now it seems that their charges of treason have been confirmed. The masters of the Chen family will only wait for the next year to be punished. , other unrelated men are assigned, while women have no official positions."
"And I heard from Fang Zhi, the buyer, that this morning in the Wangliufang area, not only the Chen family, but also the Liu Xie family were involved in a large number of people. It's going to be really lively this year."
Early in the morning, the maids in the outer courtyard of Qinglan Court were whispering about the gossip from the neighborhood that they heard from the slaves who were purchasing this morning.
Even though Jiang Nianjiao had been ill and groggy these past few days, she couldn't help being woken up by the sounds outside.
When she woke up, she felt that her mouth was very dry. When she called Cuiqiao, no one answered. She just remembered that all the maids in the house had been arranged by her to go shopping this morning.
She called for someone a few more times, but maybe the girls in the outer courtyard were too engrossed in discussing this morning's gossip. She called several times, but none of the maids outside the room responded.
In desperation, she could only get out of the bed.
But when she groped for the teapot, she discovered that there was no water in the teapot.
She had been in a coma for several days, and now her mouth was very dry. She had no intention of calling the girls in the outer courtyard anymore.
Therefore, she was just going to open the curtain of the inner room and go out, but she didn't want to listen to the gossip before the curtain was opened.
Jiang Nianjiao saw that the gossip they discussed was related to recent major events, so she did not say anything immediately, nor did she come out immediately.
After all, now that she is ill, the information she can get is not as much as the maids who communicate with her all day long.
One of them was filled with righteous indignation and said, "If you ask me, the Chen family deserves it. The Holy Spirit has given them enough gifts, but they still want to rebel? Isn't this asking for death?"
The other person cooperated and said, "Yes, I just feel sorry for Queen Min. I heard that Queen Min was also placed under house arrest because of this incident. It seems that she has gone crazy. Her position is now represented by Concubine Jing." .”
"What's so pitiful? You don't know, right? I also heard what my sister said. She said that it was Fengchen Palace who planned Concubine Yuxian's frame-up. If it hadn't been for her, Concubine Yuxian would have been framed. Then he won't die, and our young lady won't have to torture herself like this."
Hearing this sentence, the people below also sighed, but some maids could not help but ask, "Is your statement credible? If she really did this, where will our lady be? After all, in the future The two of them are mother-in-law and daughter-in-law."
"Of course it's true. As for the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, I think you are overthinking it. After all, this marriage will probably not work out?" Another person proudly showed off the information he knew. ..
"How could it not be possible? Shouldn't the younger generation be responsible for the above sins? Besides, if His Highness the King of Jin can come back from Yunzhou this time, wouldn't it be a great achievement?"
"He has done a great job, but he can't come back. I heard from the palace that His Highness the King of Jin
Died in Yunzhou, it was also because of this that Queen Namin went crazy because she could not accept such news for a while. "
After hearing these words, before everyone had time to sigh, they heard a soft snapping sound coming from the inner room.
This voice naturally alarmed these girls who gathered together to discuss gossip.
After calming down, one of the girls said, "Ah! Could it be that damn cat that broke the lady's things? If Sister Lianying comes back and finds out, I'm afraid she will scold us to death."
After hearing this, everyone naturally lost their intention to laugh. Finally, one of them stood up and planned to see what was going on in the inner room. Unexpectedly, she just opened the curtain and met Jiang Nianjiao's eyes.
When he saw his young lady and the teapot that fell to the ground, the situation in front of him became clear.
However, although the teapot was not broken by the cat, the girl was still frightened when the master who had been lingering on the sickbed for several days suddenly appeared.
"Miss? Why are you down here? If you have any instructions, just ask us." The girl felt guilty because she was too excited about gossip just now, and she was also afraid that the maids in the inner courtyard would know about their neglect, so the girl just hurriedly He added this sentence diligently.
Naturally, Jiang Nianjiao would not question her about such trivial matters as why they didn't show up after he had clearly called them.
After all compared to that. What's more important is that the bad news about Zhao Yanzhen that was suddenly heard just now is even more concerning.
She grabbed the maid's arm and then asked firmly, "Is everything you said true?"
"What do you want to ask, young lady?" The girl was frightened by Jiang Nianjiao's eager eyes, but she still asked carefully.
Jiang Nianjiao bit her lip, and then struggled to spit out the news she just heard, "Is this what you said, something happened to King Jin in Yunzhou?"
As soon as she heard this, the place fell silent.
They all knew that the cause of Jiang Nianjiao's trip was a heart attack. After all, the death of Concubine Xian a while ago had given her a lot of blows. In addition, the wind and cold were prevalent in winter. After Concubine Yuxian was buried, she couldn't get sick when she came back.
Now, under the doctor's care, her body and bones have finally recovered a little. If she hears the news of her fiancé's death again, she doesn't know how long she has been sick again.
After all, although she had not spent much time with Zhao Yanzhen, and the public only said how much His Highness King Jin was attracted to her, they could also see that the lady from home actually liked His Highness King Jin.
Even compared to when she had an unrequited love for Prince Liang, her relationship now may be even deeper than before.
After all, it was just her wishful thinking before. In the past, all she liked Liang Wang did was attack dissidents and get jealous.
To say that he liked Liang Wang, it would be better to say that it was just his reluctance when a toy failed.
But now since he made it public to His Highness Prince Jin, they can see with their naked eyes that their master has completely changed.
That was an excellent change. During this time, the young lady who used to be mean to her servants seemed to be a lot more lenient to her servants.
She is like every ordinary young couple who is deeply loved and she also loves each other deeply.
He has done all the stupid things in the world.
Moreover, when His Highness King Jin went on an expedition to Yunzhou, the lady went to see off His Highness King Jin at night. Although it was secret, the girl underneath actually knew about it.
Naturally, they also know how much their young ladies want their loved ones to return safely.
But now that Yunzhou is victorious, she can't wait to return to that person.
Thinking of this, the girl didn't dare to say a word.
Jiang Nianjiao's eyes were red, "Is it true?"
"What is true?" Before the girl could answer Jiang Nianjiao's words, Lianying, who had just gone to boil the medicine, returned to the inner room with the medicine bowl. She just said it casually.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she said this, she saw Jiang Nianjiao stepping on the ground without even wearing her shoes, and a lot of teapot fragments were scattered in front of her.
From this, Lianying had guessed what was going on in the room. She just said, "Miss, do you want to drink water? If you want to drink water, just ask the servants to do it. Why do you have to get up by yourself?" It's cold in winter, so go back to bed and lie down."
However, facing Lianying's consolation, Jiang Nianjiao
But there was no reaction.
Seeing that these maids were still in a daze, Lianying couldn't help scolding, "You too, the lady wants to drink water, don't you have any attention? Why are you still standing there? Why don't you hurry up and get a pot of water for the lady!" "
After hearing this, everyone seemed to have woken up from a dream, and there was no need for Lianying to say anything else. At this moment, these people just rushed to say that they were going to pour water.
Lianying didn't have the time to pay attention to these people.
After all, the one who is more troublesome right now than them is obviously their eldest lady.
Although they were sad when the Concubine Xian died, they were not so sad that they fell ill.
She really didn't want anything to happen to the eldest lady. After all, when Concubine Xian sent them to Jiang Nianjiao, she had said that nothing could happen to Jiang Nianjiao.
Therefore, she just continued to persuade Jiang Nianjiao in a low voice, "Miss Jiang, let's go back and rest."
At the same time, she only signaled the maid who was being held by Jiang Nianjiao to be smarter.
The girl quickly used some tricks to escape.
Jiang Nianjiao's eyes turned red and she said, "Something happened to King Jin, do you know?"
Upon hearing this, Lianying couldn't help but feel a thump in her heart. All the maids in the outer palace knew about the news in the palace. Naturally, they who were usually in charge knew about the matter earlier, but they discussed it. They all decided to hide it from Jiang Nianjiao first, so as not to let this matter reach her ears.
I didn't expect that the maids from the foreign government would actually know about this matter today, and they only spread the matter to Jiang Nianjiao's ears.
