In the harem, there are almost no people like Zheng Ji who don't care about the movements of the Yeting Bureau.
Except for Queen Xue of Kunning Palace who was able to sit safely, the concubines in other palaces could not restrain themselves and tried their best to find out.
However, nothing was gained.
The Yeting Bureau is as tight as an iron barrel, and no news leaks out.
This also made the people in the harem even more uneasy. Some keen concubines even closed the palace door directly and prohibited the maids from going out.
The matter of Chonghua Hall is actually not difficult to explain. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this matter is related to Yun Bin and the Thirteenth Princess.
For such an obvious matter, given the emperor's love for Princess Changding, the whole story should be found out quickly. Why hasn't the Yeting Bureau announced the investigation results for so long?
There must be some deeper inside story that they don't know!
What exactly is it? Is there any relationship with other people in the harem?
No one knows, and no one dares to ask.
Under such circumstances, when the maids and chamberlains of each palace met at the Food Bureau, they just nodded in a hurry and did not even dare to say hello, for fear of causing some disaster.
For a time, the palace was enveloped in an unspeakable depression and solemnity.
It was not until the next night, two days and two nights after the incident at the palace banquet in Chonghua Palace, that the oral message finally came out from Zichen Palace.
Emperor Yongning ordered that the guards who intended to do evil to the Thirteenth Princess be killed with a stick. At the same time, Concubine Yun was sentenced to death, while the Thirteenth Princess Zheng Ti was deprived of the treatment of a princess and was relegated to the cold palace!
At this time, the Yeting Bureau no longer hid, and carried out the bodies of the guards, Yun Bin and others, as well as the thirteenth princess Zheng Ti who had passed out.
Many palace maids and chambermaids saw it. Concubine Yun's face was distorted, swollen and bruised, none of the ten fingers hanging down was intact, and even her feet were stained with blood!
It can be seen that Yun Bin suffered a lot of torture in the Yeting Bureau.
The rest of the maids in the Yunbi Palace were either seriously injured or dying. Only the thirteenth princess Zheng Ti's body was intact, but all the gold hairpins on her head were peeled off.
The maids and maids who had seen all this happened were all frightened and rushed back to report to their masters.
"Madam, almost everyone in Concubine Yun's palace is gone. I heard that... Concubine Yun colluded with the guards to murder Princess Changding, but accidentally killed her own daughter..." In Concubine Xian's palace, a chamberlain said this Report.
The virtuous concubine Tao was one of the concubines who ordered the palace to be closed. After hearing this, she just asked: "That's it?"
The chamberlain nodded dryly, recalling the horrific death of Yun Bin with lingering fear.
When Mrs. Tao saw it, she didn't ask any more questions and casually said: "Go down, remember, don't mess with the people from Mingguang Palace and Fuqing Palace."
"yes!"
After the chamberlain left, Mrs. Tao's eyes gradually became empty, and she stared blankly at the bed curtain, not knowing what she was thinking.
After a while, she smiled and said to herself: "When Yun was named a concubine, she was also extremely favored and was both envied and hated by others."
At that time, many people in the harem were lamenting that the emperor still cherished his old love and favored and promoted Yun Bin, whose family had fallen into decline.
No matter how favored he was, he was still killed by a piece of white silk in the end? He was tortured before his death.
Gee, it’s really not worth it.
Who dared Yun Bin to scheme against the Jiang family? The old man hanged himself because he thought his life was too long. Who can blame him?
Not knowing what he thought of, Mr. Tao laughed softly, a strange joy flashing through his almond-shaped eyes.
I don’t know, after Mrs. Jiang learned about Yun Bin’s death, would she feel sad and sad like a rabbit dying and a fox dying?
After all, if flowers don't bloom for a hundred days, how can you know that Yun Bin's fate today won't be the Jiang family's fate tomorrow?
That depends on how long the emperor's favor for Jiang can last.
However, from this incident, it seems that it can last for a long time. For the sake of Jiang and Princess Changding, the emperor can even throw his own flesh and blood into the cold palace.
They are both flesh and blood of the Tian family. What is the difference between the Thirteenth Princess and Princess Changding? The only difference is whether there is a concubine and mother-in-law who is the most favored harem.
Probably, it's because the Yun family has fallen into decline, and there is no one left who can make a difference.
Mrs. Tao moved the gold hairpin on her head, thinking of the Tao family disciples who were leading the troops to guard one side, and her mood was extremely calm.
Probably, this is the magnanimity of one of the four concubines.
However, in the other house, there were people whose beauty turned pale and who were trembling with fear.
Zheng Chuan clutched the quilt tightly, her knuckles turned white from exerting too much force. She said in a hoarse voice, "Check... have you checked?"
"Yes, that's what is said to the outside world. Everything was done by Yun Bin." Her eldest maid, Qing Shuang, nodded, with fear still on her face.
As if she had thought of something, Qingshuang's face paled a bit, she looked around, and said cautiously: "Princess, the night before yesterday..."
"Don't say anything! There's nothing!" Zheng Chuan stopped him hastily, his face also bloodless.
She breathed heavily, her hands on the quilt loosened and loosened, she stared at Qingshuang and said: "The night before, we just saw that there was no one on that road and it was dark, so we took another road out of fear. We know ?"
Her tone was more serious than ever before, and her eyes were also very tough.
Qingshuang was stunned for a moment, then realized what she was doing and hurriedly replied: "Princess, I know this."
Zheng Chuan stopped reminding him, and just grasped the quilt tightly with his loosened hand.
The night before last, she drank a few too many cups of Qiongxiang Dew, and then she couldn't bear it anymore, so she took Qingshuang out of Chonghua Hall and took a road less crowded to go to the toilet.
The road she planned to take was exactly where the guard was ambushing!
If a palace maid hadn't deliberately lured her away, then it wasn't the Thirteenth Princess who was in trouble, but her!
When she thought about what happened that night, her hands and feet were so scared that her heart almost jumped out of her chest.
She didn't recognize the palace maid who led her away. She only remembered that the other party's eyebrows were crooked and she kindly reminded her: "Princess, I just saw some wild cats squatting over there."
Zheng Chuan was scratched by a wild cat when he was a child. Whenever he heard a cat meowing, he would hide away.
After hearing what the palace maid said, she chose another path without even thinking about it.
After she returned to Chonghua Hall, she discovered that the Thirteenth Princess sitting next to her was not in the hall, and then...then those things happened.
Zheng Chuan's biological mother passed away, and his grandfather was just a minor official from out of town. It was already difficult for him to live safely in the palace. He was always timid and afraid of getting into trouble. It was unimaginable that the palace guards could be so bold.
If what happened to her the night before, she would probably be... too scared to survive, right?
Fortunately, the palace maid reminded her. What if, what if there is no such maid?
It is impossible for Yun Bin to harm her own daughter, so who is that guard waiting there? Who is the person he really wants to do evil?
Zheng Chuan didn't dare to think about it further, but he secretly felt: It's her, it's her.
Why is this so? She has never had a grudge with anyone, and she has never dared to do anything. She just wants to... live in peace. Why would someone assassinate her?
Zheng Chuan's eyes turned red unknowingly, and tears rolled in his eyes, but they never fell.
She will have her haircut in a year and a half, so she will be close to leaving the palace, and then... she won't have to worry about dying at any time.
