This day, eventually, Princess Yushan’s wailing ended with her being gagged and dragged away. However, after she left, the Empress Dowager didn’t mean to let the others leave. Instead, with a sullen face, she stared at the people in the hall.
Her usually amicable look became as sharp as a knife!
After a while, the people in the hall were all frightened with their faces turning pale. The Empress Dowager finally said, “Yushan is too young and thoughtless. I hope that you don’t follow her example.”
Empress Su replied first, “I’ll do as Mother commands!”
The rest of the people also echoed her words and all implied that they wouldn’t talk about it after leaving the hall.
The Empress Dowager didn’t continue reminding them. She just waved her hand wearily, “You guys leave now!”
Song Yixiao was about to leave when the Empress Dowager suddenly said, “Yixiao, you stay!”
“Do you know why I asked you to s
The Empress Dowager always supported the Crown Princess, but Emperor Xianjia was her birth son. Since she suspected the Crown Prince of attempting to kill his father, it was hard to say whether she would continue supporting the Crown Prince!Thinking of that, Song Yixiao couldn’t help frowning, but Jian Xubai shook his head, “Grandmother didn’t suspect us. Instead, she was reminding us!”He slightly narrowed his eyes, “You know, it is Uncle who raises the Crown Prince and regards me as his son. Putting that aside, let’s focus on the political stake. It has been only one year since Duke of Ji returned to the court. It was when the civil service was about to be suspended for the Spring Festival holiday last year that He Wenqiong was promoted from the Eastern Palace to the Director of the Ministry of War. If anything untoward happens to Uncle and the Crown Prince takes the throne as a matter of course, how can his position be stabilized?”The Su F
Song Yixiao felt that Princess Changxing kind of deserved it, but the one who seduced Jian Yiyou happened to be Shen Qimo. This cousin was brought to the imperial capital by Elder Lady Duanmu. Now Princess Changxing kept scolding Shen Qimo for being shameless, but how could she not transfer her anger to Elder Lady Duanmu?“Changxing, are you sure about that?” She pondered and said, “In the whole imperial capital, it can’t be that only Cousin Qimo’s name contains the character. Maybe it is a coincidence?”Princess Changxing sneered and said, “Do you think that I’m lying? My maid saw her and my husband being in the alley, intimate and close. That ignoble woman’s family name is Shen but obviously, she takes after the Lu Family in terms of appearance. She has brought shame on her grandfather, hasn’t she?”Since she described Shen Qimo’s appearance accurately, Song Yixiao realized that she meant it for sure. She sighed in secret and said, “I’ve met
Jian Xubai also felt that it was a serious problem, “Grandaunt is old now. We shouldn’t stimulate her anymore! Now that she resides in that house and suffers from wandering arthritis, we mustn’t tell her such news recklessly!”He hesitated for a long while and made a decision in the end, “Changxing described Cousin Qimo’s appearance, but you know her words are not reliable. As to such a serious issue, you cannot only listen to her side of the story. You must confirm it on your own! How about this? Later I will keep Grandmother and the two cousins occupied, and you can find a way to take Cousin Qimo to her room so that you can ask her about the matter!”Song Yixiao calmed down and agreed with him.A while later, after the couple greeted Elder Lady Duanmu and had a small talk, Song Yixiao knocked over her tea “accidentally” and the tea was spilt over her dress!In a hurry she rose and apologized. Elder Lady Duanmu wouldn’t blame her
Song Yixiao opened the door, held the door frame and counted to five, but she still didn’t hear Shen Qimo admit her mistake or stop her, which made her really disappointed!Despite that, she was aware that even if she turned around and continued persuading Shen Qimo, this stubborn girl wouldn’t listen anyway.Therefore, she paused and then left with a flick of her sleeves.On the way back, she recalled that it was Elder Lady Duanmu who asked Shen Qimo to take her to the room for freshening up. Now she was going back alone. How could the Elder Lady not suspect?As a result, she had to return and asked Shen Qimo to go with her. She reminded Shen Qimo to compose herself so as to prevent the Elder Lady from noticing her affair and getting too angry.However, as she was usually talkative and outgoing, she became clearly silent when she was back in the hall. Very soon, Elder Lady Duanmu asked in surprise, “Qimo, how come you
While Jian Xubai and his wife were worried about Shen Qimo, in the backyard of Princess Changxing’s mansion, the sound of breaking china ended the long-standing impasse in the hall.“Say it!” Princess Changxing’s eyes were as sharp as knives, whose polished nails almost poked at Jian Yiyou’s face, “Where did you get the handkerchief? Since you dare to do it, why don’t you dare to answer me now?”Jian Yiyou glanced at her exasperated look and frowned, saying, “You rummaged through my things?”“So what?” Princess Changxing didn’t expect that Jian Yiyou still wouldn’t instantly admit his mistake at the moment. Instead, his response even sounded reproachful. She got so furious that she threw away several tea bowls before finally having her temper under control, “If you didn’t hide this kind of thing in the secret compartment, why would you be afraid of me rummaging through your things?”“Cousin Qimo is still young and inexperienced, bu
The fact that Pei Yourui was taken to the imperial capital and resided in Jinguo Grand Princess’s mansion made Jian Yiyou and Princess Changxing lose face, but for Jian Xubai and Song Yixiao, it was not as worrying as Shen Qimo’s stubbornness.Therefore, when the couple returned to Duke of Yan’s mansion, Song Yixiao pondered for a while and felt that it was not a good idea to continue hiding it from Elder Lady Duanmu, “How about asking Uncle Limiao to tell it to Grandaunt in a roundabout way?”She explained, “If we can share the burden with Grandaunt, we don’t need to let her know. However, now that Qimo doesn’t listen to us, we can’t do anything about it. This kind of thing cannot be delayed! The longer it is delayed, the more troublesome it will get!”Particularly, when Pei Yourui just arrived, Jinguo Grand Princess gave a warning to Jian Yiyou and Princess Changxing. No matter how angry and resentful Princess Changxing was about Shen Qimo at
Sitting in the seat of honor, the Empress Dowager looked down at her granddaughter-in-law who was kneeling demurely on the stair.In order not to let Empress Su seize the initiative, Song Yixiao didn’t have time to return to the mansion and change into her official dress. Now she was still wearing the same clothes as she did when she was going to meet Elder Lady Duanmu—a narrow-sleeve blouse with the background of a primrose pattern decorated with the hidden embroidery pattern of branches and mandala, and an apricot pink pleated skirt. Now it was late February, but it was still a bit cold in the imperial capital. Therefore, she had a pea green half-arm shawl outside the blouse.Her outfit was pretty and beautiful, which set off the brightness of the dark blue bricks in the hall under her.In order to show respect for Her Majesty the Empress Dowager, this young lady slightly lowered her head. On the exquisite braided cross-shaped bun, the golden
The Empress Dowager snorted, “Since you know that the Su Family has done a great favor for the clansmen of the late Prince of Chengyang but Elder Lady Duanmu still pulls a fast on the nephew-in-law of the Su Family abruptly, do you even need to ask who she prefers?”Actually, Song Yixiao felt the same way, but she didn’t know much about Elder Lady Duanmu. Now that she got a certain response from the Empress Dowager, she was finally relieved with a sigh. Her husband wouldn’t need to turn against this senior then!However, when she excused herself with joy and expedition and went out of the imperial palace, she happened to see that Elder Lady Duanmu was helped to get into the carriage by Lu He’ai and Shen Qimo. As she hastened to go forward and pay respects, this elder lady, who was always amicable to her, took a cold glance at her and ordered the carter drily as if not seeing her, “Let’s go!”“Yixiao!” The abrupt change of attitude was confusing
At this moment, the Grand Princess of Jin's residence.Jia Yao gently picked up the silver pot on the table and poured warm rose dew into the giltsilver begonia marigold, the sound of the flower dew entering the marigold seemed particularly silent against the backdrop of the whirling winter rain outside the window.The north wind rolled through the court, lifting up a snowy mist, and the obviously warm springlike interior was flooded with a chill for no apparent reason.She suddenly heard the sound of a rustling of the Chinese tent, and busily set aside the silver pot that had only been halfpoured, turning to check just in time to see the palefaced Grand Princess of Jin rising tremblingly to her feet."Is Your Highness thirsty?" Jia Yao took three steps to the edge of the couch and held the master, on one side taking a hidden bag from the side and padding it behind the Grand Princess so that she could lean more comfortably, and on the other side she said wit
With this sudden question, even though Jian Xu Bai has always been deeply favored by the Empress Dowager, he could not help but feel creeped out!He was stunned for a moment before he got up and left the couch, kneeling down in front of the Empress Dowager, and said in a deep voice ''Why did Imperial Grandmother make such a remark? I don't dare to say that I don't have any selfishness, but I have never thought of usurping the throne! The reason why I will support His Highness King Su to ascend to the throne, apart from worrying about Second Auntie, is also because His Highness King Su has the qualifications of a wise ruler, and can succeed the late Emperor's divine warrior!"Taking a deep breath, he knocked heavily on the ground, "I never thought of betraying Lu!""Good boy, mourning home but just so ask, why do you have to be so solemn?" The dowager empress looked at him with complicated eyes, bent down to help each other, sighed, "Mourning family naturally believ
In fact, the large empire, to say that no one can really stop that so far still silent Yu Qinghan may not be the problem is, whether the empire can hold, related to the entire Qingzhou Su's future!Therefore, the first and foremost thing that the candidate for guarding the city should do is to make the Su family trust him, otherwise, even if he is talented, the Su family will not be able to give him this important task!And because of the Marquis of Yan's support for King Su, even though there is now a disconnect between the Su family and the Su family, they are unanimous on the big issue of supporting King Su to ascend to the throne so Su Shaoge immediately considered Lv Qinghong of the Marquis of Yan after having no one at hand himself.As for the other generalship talents in the city, Su Shaoge could listen to their advice, but would definitely not give the forbidden army directly to their command!Now Su Bofeng said, if Lu Qinghong can't hold up Yu Qing
Uncle Lu is Lu Qinghong, the divine archer on the Wuhuan battlefield back in the day, Jian Xubai's right hand man although he is old, but also because of his age, even if Lu Qinghong has never been a commander before, in this kind of battle of defending the city, his rich experience in the sand field is the newcomer group of forbidden army is currently in urgent need of.After all, even Yang Jue himself, aside from yesterday's battle to seize the palace, had never experienced a real war.... In fact, last night s seizure of the palace could not be considered a war at all, but rather a sneak attack of a heavier nature.After understanding Su Shaoge's intention, Jianxu Bai pondered for a while and said, "Uncle Lu can lend it to you, however, he can't go with you right away, I have to give him a few words of advice!"Su Shaoge breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I should!""Uncle Lv, in your opinion, is Su Zhiyong really not confident in relying on Yang
Originally, according to Su Shaoge's intention, with Song Yixiao to take away the Jiangnan Hall secret guards "with the wind" after the token, directly erase Song Yixiao in two times to get together the token through the "with the wind" of the master, nailed Gu Shao.So send the Su family early infiltration into the "with the wind" people in fact, not necessarily "with the wind" in the people, anyway, the secret guards in addition to the internal no one knows, "Dai Feng" things to kill people are the same. "Dai Feng" to do things to kill people, recorded in the "with the wind" account is the same.Anyway, when Yang Jue led his troops into the palace, the heads that were thrown in front of He Wenqiong were all killed by "Gu Shao's secret guards from the Song family".In addition to dragging Gu Shao into the water, forcing him to help stabilize the situation and people's hearts afterwards, this is also to create the false impression that "you see, Minister Gu actual
This sudden palace change lasted until the faintest light of day, when the sound of swords and guns shouting and killing gradually subsided.But the panic in the imperial capital, from the royal family and officials down to the peddlers, could not end yet the day had already dawned, but the gates of the imperial capital's workshops still had no intention of opening."There are two pieces of news, one good and one bad." Su Shaoge reappeared in the flower hall of Marquis Yan's mansion, his face unable to tell if he was happy or angry, "The good news is that last night's takeover of the palace went very smoothly, inside and outside of the imperial city, no, it should be within the imperial capital, it's all already within our grasp!"But the bad news is very bad, "The forbidden troops sent to Wei's house missed their mark, allowing Wei Xi to escape up the city wall and let down at night!"If it was just one Wei Xi, Su Shaoge wouldn't be worried, the problem is,
After a moment of silence in the hall, Bell said in a hard tone, "Then why did Grandma hand over the 'Follow the Wind' token to Second Duke Su just now? In case he took it ...""Have you noticed?" Song Yixiao's gaze was icy cold as he said, "I only gave him the token, and he didn't ask for anything else I remember when I only had half of the token in my hand, I had asked him for advice on the matter of the Six Valves' secret guards, and he said that the token could first and foremost only be used by the head of the family, and only by the head of the family who had reached the age of the bundle of hair! Of course I am the only one left in the Jiangnan Hall's direct line now, so of course this rule is not so strict. But, he's neither under me nor is he anyone of mine, and he can actually mobilize 'Follow the Wind' with just the token! What do you think that means?!"Bell was slightly lost in thought and said ''So there are Su family members in the 'Follow the Wind'? But
Su Shaoge mildly said, "Of course it's useful when your father gifted the dark guards to Gu Shao, although it wasn't announced to the public, my Su family heard about it."He paused here, giving Song Yixiao a moment to think, before continuing, "So if there is a 'Follow the Wind' out there right now, it's always easier to do the aftermath, I don't know what Grandma thinks?"Song Yixiao stroked the jade bracelet on her wrist and mused.She understands the meaning of Su Shaoge's words, the socalled "I have heard of the Su family", meaning that they have the evidence of Song Yuan to Gu Shao's gift of secret guards, then this interception of He Wenqiong, as long as the "with the wind" is involved, regardless of whether the order comes from the Song Yixiao or Gu Shao, will be credited to Gu Shao's head in the end! The final result will be put on Gu Shao's head!So if you hold Gu Shao's handle, you can coerce Gu Shao to help the aftermath then the aftermath will
He Wenqiong is very disappointed to look at the screen outside the granddaughter's silhouette, although He Xiuyi did not enter the palace before, with his grandfather in fact not see a lot, but in the end is the eldest granddaughter, He Wenqiong occasionally listen to his son and daughterinlaw mentioned to He Xiuyi's character is still an understanding of the granddaughter of the broken not have the guts to join the conspiracy to kill the eldest Princess of Changxing things.The problem was that when the palace maid accused He Xiuyi of being displeased with Empress Su, in full view of everyone, instead of immediately retorting, He Xiuyi exuded a clear sense of trepidation!Now who doesn't know that she did express her displeasure with Empress Su?"This child is still too young and has experienced too little!" He Wenqiong sighed inwardly and decided to divert the blame he asked to reexamine the scented sachets made by Ms. Jiang, and questioned whether the scented s
