Chapter 33 Yun Fenghuang: I Am Good at This Question!

"..." Their eyes met, and after a long while, Yun Fenghuang said melancholy, "It turns out that His Majesty has already declined to this point, and even though he is in a deep palace, the foreign men can come and go freely."

Gong Xiangxiao looked at her coldly: "Do you want to break your promise?"

"How is it possible?" Yun Fenghuang asked, "I was just promoted to the throne yesterday, and the Queen has not yet said anything about marrying me, so I can't go to the Queen to ask for someone first, right? That's just in case. What should I do if I have aroused the suspicion of the Queen? After all, I have always been well-behaved and docile in front of the Queen..."

"The tame one who makes a lot of noise in the side hall of Yanfu Palace?" Gong Xiangxiao sneered and interrupted her, "or the one who keeps quiet in front of Mianfu Palace?"

Yun Fenghuang sighed: "There is nothing we can do about it. After all, although I am well-behaved and docile, I can't stand someone who keeps asking for trouble, right?"

Gong Xiangxiao said coldly: "Although I am easy to talk to, I can't stand someone who wants to die again and again, right? Or do you think that after you come back to the harem, I can't do anything to you?"

"Is it possible that the Crown Prince suspects that I did this on purpose?" Yun Fenghuang frowned, "Just to avoid taking Liu Hong with you, you even gave up the position of beauty you just acquired?"

Gong Xiangxiao sneered: "Isn't it?"

Whether it is the farce in the side hall of Yanfu Palace or the dispute in front of Mianfu Palace, it is not a big deal. Even an ordinary person with mediocre intelligence can avoid it and eliminate it intentionally.

With Yun Fenghuang's scheming mind, he really didn't want to get into trouble, and there were many ways to solve it, so why did he end up irritating the Queen and the Queen Mother continuously in one day?

In Gong Xiangxiao's view, it was clear that Yun Fenghuang wanted to destroy the bridge, tricked himself into helping Xiao Fanghu escape, and then turned around and refused to admit it!

"What you are saying is that you are underestimating me." Yun Fenghuang snorted and said, "If I really don't want the prince to get his wish, why should I do it so obviously? Get Liuhong first, and then do whatever you want If you cause some trouble, push her out to push the tank, and ensure that she dies cleanly, the prince is still speechless. Maybe you can even use this matter to convince the prince to deal with my enemies together?"

Although these words sounded irritating, they made sense. Gong Xiangxiao had a sullen face, thought for a while, and said, "What exactly do you want?"

Hearing this, Yun Fenghuang slightly raised his lips: "Of course it's to... take a step further!"

She went on to explain, "After all, it's better to be the master of one's own affairs than to be dependent on others."

"You want to replace Concubine Yue?" Gong Xiangxiao sneered, "That's a dream!"

"What are you doing to replace Concubine Yue?" Yun Fenghuang was surprised. "I don't know what Concubine Yue was like before. I don't know, but ever since I entered the palace, she hasn't seemed to have a relaxed day. Concubine Aren’t you stupid and want to live like her?”

Besides, she doesn’t like Huzhu Palace either!

The location is so remote, and every day I go to pay my respects, I have to get up half an hour earlier than others. Because the road is so remote, it is easy for people like Gong Xiangxiao to find opportunities to block it... She doesn't care about this damn place!

Isn't it true that the palaces she wants to target are those with beautiful buildings and beautiful locations?

Gong Xiangxiao was completely confused about her thoughts. Although he felt that something was wrong, after thinking about it for a while, he still asked patiently: "What do you mean?"

"I asked for the position of beauty with the help of the Empress Dowager. In fact, the Empress was not happy." Yun Fenghuang said, "We were in Yanfu Palace yesterday. After the Empress Dowager left, the Empress was still very happy. It was a beating on my concubine. I wonder how the queen can be happy even though she still obeyed her loving mother the empress dowager in the end? Next, even if I have made other achievements, will the queen continue to promote me to the throne according to the rules? ?”

That was of course impossible. Yun Fenghuang was promoted to three levels within a few days of entering the palace, which was enough to attract attention. Furthermore, the empress dowager, who was a loving mother, was involved in the promotion and promotion of concubines. Empress Ji could not let Yun Fenghuang ascend to the throne easily... Gong Xiangxiao muttered: "But if you deliberately offend the empress and the empress dowager, you can certainly do it." How can the queen be promoted back after she said this?"

He didn't think that Yun Fenghuang made a mistake on his own initiative to vent his anger on the queen, and the queen would feel sorry for him and restore his position.

"Originally, I really had a headache." Yun Fenghuang chuckled, "But no, I just heard Her Royal Highness Princess talk about the young prince's ceremony in Nongrou Hall... I feel that this is not a ready opportunity. What?"

Mentioning the initiation ceremony of his half-brother, Gong Xiangxiao's face darkened: "Really?"

"Mr. Lingshan is a well-known figure in the country. Ever since Ding You returned to his hometown during the reign of the late emperor, he has been working hard on the fields without asking for temples. As soon as he came out of the mountain, he took the young prince as his disciple." Yun Fenghuang talked eloquently, "For the mother and queen For the Empress Dowager and others, it was both unexpected and unavoidable, and they were wondering why the Regent persuaded Mr. Lingshan to surrender such a great talent to become a teacher for children."

"It's so profound that I won't go into details anymore."

She changed the subject as she spoke, "What I'm going to say next is the impact of this matter on the Crown Prince."

Gong Xiangxiao's expression changed, and after a moment he said cheerfully: "I would like to hear the details!"

"The Crown Prince is the direct descendant of the Regent, Concubine Yuan, so it is natural that he should be the heir to the Regent." Yun Fenghuang chuckled, "But... Concubine Yuan has passed away. Not only did the step-concubine come from a high family, she also gave birth to an heir, and now she has a famous teacher. Forgive me for speaking frankly, the prince seems to have a noble status, but his position in the regent's palace is a bit delicate... I guess this is why the prince wants to cooperate with me? "

Did she think it was strange before that the regent faction clearly had Mrs. Yaoning in the palace, and in terms of seniority, position, and origin, who was not better than herself?

Why does Gong Xiangxiao develop his own eyeliner?

It dawned on me just now after hearing Wei Hengyan talk about the situation in the Regent's Palace.

Being cooperating with the regent's palace does not mean that they are Gong Xiangxiao's own eyes and ears.

This kind of back-house matter is Yun Fenghuang's strength. Without waiting for Gong Xiangxiao's answer, he added, "Actually, this matter is easy to handle."

Gong Xiangxiao originally wanted to scold her, but after hearing this, he couldn't help but ask: "What's a good way?"

"That depends on the prince's purpose." Yun Fenghuang smiled slightly and took a few steps forward to go to Gong Xiangxiao. She was actually relatively tall among women, but she was still more than half a head shorter than Gong Xiangxiao. At this moment Standing on tiptoe, he was able to whisper, "If the prince has no interest in the throne and joins His Majesty, be it the Ji family. With the internal and external coordination, even if the energy of the Prince Regent's palace is severely damaged, it will still be yours, and it will not be easier for Princess Lu and her mother-in-law." both!"

"If the Crown Prince is interested in the throne... then, for now, it's better to be gentle, courteous and thrifty in front of the Regent! After all, the Crown Prince is young, and he has to rely on the Regent to fight for the throne, right? Your two younger brothers are young, even if they have the guidance of a famous teacher, this It won’t be of use for a while. Who else but the prince can fight with the regent in a battle between father and son?”

"Even between flesh and blood, love grows over time."

"We are both biological children, and the prince is the direct descendant of the first wife. He is already a head taller than your younger brother."

"If I still have the affection to accompany the regent through thick and thin... let me ask you, when the overall situation is decided in the future, why should my brother argue with you?"

This is not just a matter of affection, but if Gong Xiangxiao can always be the right-hand man of the regent, his own power and ability will definitely be revealed over time.

By then, with full wings and a solid position, even if the regent still wants to favor his step-concubine and his youngest son, he is afraid that his subordinates will not agree.

This is an example of a certain Mingjun in the previous dynasty. He killed the prince's brother and forced his own father to abdicate... Well, yes, because he managed the world well, he finally left his name in history.

"..." Gong Xiangxiao lowered his eyes to look at her. This concubine was two or three years younger than him. Her eyebrows had not yet fully grown, and her face was dull and dull. She looked like a branch that was about to bloom after a misty rain in spring. Lei, beautiful and pure.

It was as if the heart-wrenching words just now were not spoken by her.

Gong Xiangxiao subconsciously thought of his stepmother. She was also so quiet, gentle, weak and virtuous. Ever since she entered the house, even her wet nurse who raised him single-handedly could not tell her anything bad, but she just let herself follow her. My father has drifted further and further away, and now we are almost strangers to each other.

Every time he saw the regent and Mr. Lu teasing Gong Xiangzhen with smiles, he felt so out of place, like a pure outsider.

He retracted his thoughts and said slowly, "You don't seem to care about your own end?"

"That's wrong. It's because you care about your own fate that you have to make suggestions for the prince." Yun Fenghuang said sternly, "After all, the palace is not where Shengping is now. If Guo stays an honest concubine, what will happen to her in the future can only be left to fate. In the final analysis, I am just trying to find a way out... Anyway, I have hated Your Majesty because of Concubine Yue. If you don't prepare a way out now, why don't you wait for Concubine Yue to deal with you in the future?"

Gong Xiangxiao said: "You could have avoided offending Concubine Yue."

"That's impossible." Yun Fenghuang shook his head and said, "In this palace, everyone else can avoid conflicts, but Concubine Yue can't! Because other people can know their own interests and collude, and they always have a certain influence. It is possible for enemies to become friends. But Concubine Yue doesn't like the people in her palace, she is just jealous. There is nothing that can be done about it. After all, I am a concubine, and it is my duty to serve His Majesty! Moreover, I do not have a natal family. If you support me and don't sleep with me, I'm afraid your status will be deducted... So I can't live in harmony with people like Concubine Yue. She won't sympathize with my difficulties, and I can't just sit back and wait for death, so We can only compete to see who wins."

She said these words calmly, without any anger or anger, but with a decisive meaning.

"...You can see it clearly." Gong Xiangxiao was silent for a longer time this time, as if he remembered something, and finally said, "Then tell me, what is the most important thing for me now?"

Yun Fenghuang gave him two choices just now, but he didn't mention the choice now. Apparently he either hadn't thought about it yet, or he didn't want Yun Fenghuang to know his choice.

Yun Fenghuang didn't ask further questions and just said: "Although I am a female prostitute, I have heard that the scholar rebellion failed for three years. Therefore, the most important thing for the prince is to follow the example of the regent and go to the frontier army to gain experience." wing!"

The key is that a creditor like Gong Xiangxiao, who has his own tricks and can come to his door without warning, is really embarrassing. It would be best if he can defraud the imperial capital and go to the frontier.

But Gong Xiangxiao stared at her for a long time, and then said: "It seems that you are just a prostitute... My father thought the same way back then, so when the late emperor passed away, he didn't even know about it. When he received the news, he hurriedly Returning to the Imperial Capital, Ji has prepared everything."

So even though many people knew that Emperor Xiaozong had never thought about an heir, but only wanted to establish the emperor's younger brother... In the end, King Yi had no choice but to compromise and become the regent.

If Gong Xiangxiao's biological mother was still alive, he might be able to go out and work hard, but the regent Yuan Fei had passed away a long time ago. Now the back house of the palace is headed by his stepmother. This stepmother's natal family is more powerful than his biological mother's family. He was at such a lovely age and had just found a teacher whom he could rely on in the future. Under such circumstances, how could he dare to leave?

Is this going to leave the entire palace to the two women?

Yun Fenghuang shook his head: "The late emperor was only the regent's elder brother. How can this brother compare with father and son? The prince may have underestimated his status in the regent's mind."
