"Pfft", Zheng Ji laughed, his phoenix eyes curved.
Concubine, have you heard too much about the secrets of the palace? When I mentioned Emperor Father and Princess Yonggui, I subconsciously thought of this.
Although there have been many such things in the past dynasties, this is really not the case between the emperor father and Concubine Yonggui.
She shook her head and said, "Concubine, you are mistaken. Emperor Father and Concubine Yonggui have no..." She paused, and then said the word "intimate affair."
In fact, she felt hot when she said these two words.
Because Princess Yonggui truly cared for her father and treated him like a son or a nephew, it is inappropriate to use the word "private relationship" to describe her.
But she couldn't think of a more suitable description for the moment, so she could only make do with it.
"Then what?" Jiang Guifei continued to ask, seeing that Zheng Ji had something to say.
When she was in this state of mind, even if there was something going on between the Emperor and Concubine Yonggui, her heart would be calm.
What happened next really made Zheng Ji hesitate on how to speak.
Because the shocking degree of this matter is really no less than their affair, or even worse.
But there is nothing that cannot be said to the mother-in-law.
"Mother, Princess Yonggui was sent to death by the Emperor Father. Because she has an unusual relationship with the Emperor's grandmother..."
Zheng Ji's cryptic words stopped in Jiang Guifei's ears, but like a bolt from the blue, she exclaimed: "Ah, this... this..."
She wanted to say that this was impossible, but several clips of the Queen Mother getting along with Concubine Yonggui flashed through her mind.
For example, the Queen Mother and Concubine Yonggui have a very good relationship, and they often stay in the same palace;
For another example, Concubine Yonggui declared in public many times that she regarded the Emperor as her own son;
For another example, the Empress Dowager has been hiding in the Yongshan Palace in recent years, only showing her face during New Year's Eve, and is rarely seen even by the emperor.
She always thought that the Queen Mother looked down upon the disputes in the world because she was old, and she was avoiding the secular world.
Where did you expect that there is such an inside story?
In the past, she didn't think it was anything like this, but after Xiaojiu pointed it out, she felt... that's what happened.
She shook her head, forcing herself to get out of that kind of imagination, and her tone was trembling: "You...how do you know these things?"
This should be one of the deepest secrets in the palace. Even she, the most favored person in the harem and always by the emperor's side, doesn't know about it. Where did Xiaojiu learn about it?
"Mother, of course, my husband told me." Zheng Ji replied, once again bringing out the non-existent "sir".
She had told Concubine Jiang before that there was an expert around her, and it was this gentleman who gave her guidance.
To be precise, this gentleman cannot be said not to exist.
It's just that he's not the kind of gentleman the mother-in-law thought.
There is no airtight wall in the palace. No matter how deep the secret is, there will always be a hint of leakage.
As long as the spies buried in the palace are deep enough and for a long enough time, we can know a little bit about the relationship between the Queen Mother and Princess Yonggui.
It was Feng Ju who told her this.
She believed that this news was discovered by the people planted by Master Lu. After all, Master Du Tongdu was an upright man and did not look like someone who would pry into secrets.
What surprised her was that Fengju had not told her this news in her previous life.
Perhaps it was because when she met Fengju in her previous life, the imperial grandmother was already dead.
The person is no longer here, so no matter what kind of secrets there are, they should not be revealed.
But in this life, before she entered the Xuanzheng Hall for the first time, Fengju entrusted someone to send this news, saying it was to help her.
This is not just to help her, but to lift her up to the sky!
After hearing these things, she vaguely remembered that on the night of the death of Princess Yonggui, she had been to the Zichen Palace, but Xue Gongdao said that her father had important matters and would not let her in anyway, so she stayed outside the palace. Cry.
She had long forgotten what she was crying about.
But she thought that this time of night would definitely impress Xue Gong and she would never forget it.
So, she contacted Xue Gong and said that she seemed to have seen something the night Princess Yonggui passed away. She also said that she had not seen the imperial grandmother for a long time and that she was going to Yongshan Palace to pay homage to the imperial grandmother, and so on.
Xue Gong had something in his heart, and of course he would not respond to her request.
Xue Gong knew very well that if any news of such a shocking secret leaked out...
No, there is no need to expose the matter. As long as the emperor knows that there is a third person in the world who knows about this, his life will be at stake!
Therefore, even if Zheng Ji approached Xue Gong, Xue Gong did not dare to tell Emperor Yongning. He had to hold his nose and accept the matter, and had to cover it up for Zheng Ji afterwards.
As the emperor's most trusted servant, Xue Gong knew too much, which was not entirely a good thing!
Zheng Ji approached Concubine Jiang and said with a smile: "Concubine, you don't have to worry about these things anymore. Just pretend you don't know. The results of the three-division trial will be out soon. You don't have to worry about my grandfather and the others."
Concubine Jiang nodded and said, "Okay. I am currently "nurturing the baby" with peace of mind. I can't take care of so much. As for the Jiang family... there is no need to worry."
Things have progressed to this point, and my father is still concentrating on accompanying his mother to take care of her health, which shows that he is not anxious at all.
What's more, she still has Xiaojiu!
Before she could worry, Xiaojiu had already finished everything, which made her seem somewhat useless and melancholy as a mother-in-law.
Having said that, can the three-division trial really produce a result within three days?
Not only Concubine Jiang, but everyone in the palace and court were paying attention to the progress of the three-division trial.
Before the results of the joint trial of the three divisions came out, Zhao Li, the imperial physician of Zhao who Zheng Ji had sent numerous soldiers led by Chang Ding to assist him, finally returned to Jingzhao.
As Zheng Ji expected, Zhao Li encountered many difficulties on his way back to Beijing.
When Chang Ding and his soldiers arrived, Zhao Li happened to encounter robbers at his old house. If Chang Ding and his soldiers had not arrived in time, Zhao Li might have lost his life.
At first, Zhao Li really thought he was being robbed, but after learning about Jing Zhao's situation, he understood everything.
No wonder, he had felt strange before. His son was not good at riding and shooting, so why did he break his leg while riding a horse on a whim?
It turned out that it was to lure him away from the imperial concubine!
Then the robbers encountered were definitely not real robbers!
It's a pity that the robbers arrived with soldiers and fled immediately. Those who were intercepted quickly wiped their necks.
On the way back, Zhao Li also encountered poisoning at the inn, accidental flooding of the inn, etc. Fortunately, he was protected by Chang Ding and he was finally able to return to Jingzhao safely.
Therefore, when he returned to Jingzhao, his arms were injured, and his body was in such a miserable and miserable state...it was simply hard to describe.
Without any delay, Imperial Physician Zhao went directly to the palace to see Concubine Jiang. After taking Concubine Jiang's pulse, the bearded imperial physician said, "My Lady, I need to go see the Emperor immediately!"
His request for an audience immediately broke the news!
