Chu Yunfei remained silent.
With her intelligence?
The emperor really praised her too much. How could she, a little girl, openly compete with the queen mother?
but……
Chu Yunfei then thought again, as long as her father, the emperor, and her mother turned a blind eye, it would really not be difficult to deal with the two Chen girls.
After all, her current status is the Crown Princess. Regardless of whether she is in the palace or outside the palace, except for the Queen Mother and the Empress, her power is superior to that of all women.
She can deal with the concubine, but the concubine cannot offend her, otherwise it will be disrespectful.
Even if it were reported to the Queen Mother, it would not be reasonable.
"The Queen Mother has been a bit aggressive recently." Emperor Mu raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brow, feeling quite helpless. "The palace has been closed for more than twenty years and has been deserted for more than twenty years. As my biological son, I cannot go against her in everything. Please be more considerate of the queen."
The Queen paused in pouring him tea and frowned: "Does the Emperor mean to make this concubine a bad person?"
"You don't have to be a bad person." Emperor Mu quickly shook his head and looked at her confidently, "I believe the queen will have a way to deal with it."
The queen silently glanced at Chu Yunfei, who pursed her lips and smiled.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law actually understood what Emperor Mu meant.
As the king of a country, he knew very well the intentions behind the Queen Mother's decisions. He could not openly disobey the Queen Mother on small matters. After all, the Queen Mother only decided on the marriage of a few women, not to talk about interfering in politics. The emperor could not say "No political interference in the harem" ” to stop it.
However, the Queen and the Crown Princess are both women, and it is inevitable for women to behave inappropriately. If they "occasionally" do something that makes the Queen Mother unhappy, the Emperor would not do it considering that one of them is the head wife and the other is the daughter-in-law. Too careless.
Chu Yunfei felt relieved, knowing that Emperor Mu probably still had a lot to say, so she took the initiative to stand up and leave: "My daughter-in-law will not disturb the heart-to-heart talk between her father and mother, so she will leave first."
"Don't think too much. Raising the baby with peace of mind is the main thing." Emperor Mu was afraid that Chu Yunfei would not be able to think about it and would have trouble with Rong Cang when he went back, so he couldn't help but persuade her, "Even if two girls from the Chen family enter the palace, they will not It affects your status as Crown Princess."
Chu Yunfei was silent, always feeling that this sentence sounded unpleasant, just like what a man would say to comfort his wife when he took a concubine, "It won't affect your status as a wife if she comes in. You don't have to be on the same level as her."
Emperor Mu obviously understood this well.
But Chu Yunfei was completely understandable. After all, the king of a country had long been accustomed to three palaces and six courtyards. He didn't think it was a big deal for the queen mother to give two women to her grandson.
If Rong Cang hadn't been unwilling, the Emperor himself would have wanted to marry his son, let alone the Queen Mother?
In this world, it is normal for men to have three wives and four concubines, but Chu Yunfei's attitude of yearning for one pair for life is even more incredible. Therefore, in a war between women in the harem, one cannot expect the king of a country to protect her.
Chu Yunfei returned to the East Palace, thought for a moment alone, and then ordered: "Midsummer, take the token from the East Palace and go out of the palace, and bring Gu Jieyu and Gu Yaorao, who are staying in Prince Zhan's Mansion, into the East Palace."
Sheng Xia should be, holding the token and turning around to leave.
Chu Yunfei was leaning on the couch and meditating.
When the Queen Mother appeared, her series of actions were so obvious that she had no intention of covering up at all.
The mother of King Jin'an was a woman from the Queen Mother's family. The Queen Mother wanted to strengthen the Chen family, so she ignored the fact that Emperor Mu had already established a prince and insisted on supporting King Jin'an.
Such an attitude and behavior is really against the rules.
But it doesn’t matter whether it’s within the rules or not.
A hint of ridicule flashed across the corner of Chu Yunfei's lips. Who among the royal family who are fighting for power and profit would abide by the rules?
The key is to see who has the ability.
As the biological son of the Queen Mother, it is indeed difficult for the Emperor to break up with his mother, but the Queen Mother is also Rong Cang's grandmother.
If she is a kind grandmother, they will naturally be filial grandsons and grandsons-in-law. If the Queen Mother wants to seize her grandson's throne, then they can only be enemies.
What else should we pay attention to when treating enemies: filial piety or not?
Shengxia picked up people very quickly, and half an hour later, Gu Jieyu and Gu Yaoruo appeared safely in front of Chu Yunfei.
Chu Yunfei silently looked at the two women in front of him. There was nothing to say about their appearance. They were beautiful, delicate and frail, with a look that I felt pity for. She was somewhat similar to their brother Gu Yilan, but not very much. picture.
They seemed much more well-behaved than Gu Yilan, I wonder if they were just pretending.
Thinking about it, Gu Chengye gave these two sisters to Rong Cang in order to place chess pieces around Rong Cang. Naturally, chess pieces cannot be as well-behaved and harmless as they appear on the surface.
Chu Yunfei's thoughts changed slightly, and she asked first: "Have you two ever thought about marrying well?"
Gu Jieyu didn't understand what she meant, but he still replied truthfully: "Back to the Crown Princess, my experience since childhood was different from that of ordinary people, and I have no idea of getting married for a long time."
Gu Yaoruo said: "This slave is willing to serve the Crown Princess and will not marry in this life."
Chu Yunfei nodded casually: "Then what are your wishes?"
Gu Jieyu lowered his head and remained silent for a long time: "You two slaves have never had the time to make your own choices."
"In that case, I have something for you to do." Chu Yunfei got straight to the point, "Once you have done it, I promise to give you your freedom. If you want to get married in the future, Dong Palace will use its best ability to arrange a good marriage for you; if you If you are willing to stay in the palace, I will also promise that you will be safe for the rest of your life."
"Please give me your orders, Crown Princess." Gu Jieyu kowtowed, "Even if the Crown Princess doesn't make any promises, I will still obey the Crown Princess's orders and not dare to disobey."
Gu Yaorao pursed her lips: "I only hope that the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess will treat my brother well. No matter what outrageous things he does, I beg the Crown Princess not to kill him. He...he never meant to offend the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess on purpose. .”
"Don't worry, I will not only treat Gu Yilan well, but also you two sisters." Chu Yunfei raised her lips slightly, "You are idle when you are idle. The East Palace needs a little excitement recently. As long as you have the ability, I promise The freedom given to you can be redeemed at any time.”
