Chapter 399: Ask about the situation in Beijing and China
Chapter 399 Inquiring about Beijing-China situation
Even if the members of the Lin clan had the guts to question Concubine Yue, they would not dare to question Concubine Yue. What's more, everyone was alive and well. As long as Mrs. Chen died, Concubine Yue would not host a banquet just to poison her.
Even though Lin Bo had some doubts in his heart, he immediately dispelled his worries, and said in a calm tone: "My third brother, my brother and sister are indeed epileptic, so hurry home and arrange the funeral."
Tang Yuanxi was extremely disappointed when she heard this, and unwillingly stepped forward to stop the imperial doctor, and hurriedly confirmed: "Have you checked carefully, are you sure it's epilepsy as they said?"
"Reporting to the princess, how dare I lie to the imperial concubine and your highnesses, I have no doubts about it."
The imperial physician replied calmly.
Tang Yuanxi had no choice but to give up, walked to Lin Jinxiao's side in dismay, and said with distressed concern: "Your Highness, you can't be resurrected after death, you must mourn, don't be too sad."
"Um."
Lin Jinxiao responded lightly, and the concubine Yue Guifei and Lin Jinmu, who were still in a daze, cupped their hands and said, "Let me take my leave first."
"My dear brother."
Lin Jinmu faced him with a face of shame: "Brother Yu didn't expect such a thing to happen."
"Brother Wang, don't blame yourself."
Lin Jinxiao asked Ji Cen'an to stay and take care of everyone, called a few soldiers to come in and tidy up Da Chen's remains, and led the whole family out of the posthouse.
Back at the home of Chongrenfang, Yin Liuxuan came to ask the servants sent by the palace how to arrange it. Chu Nanzhi was still a little confused, so she ordered Chu Nanzhu and Chu Nanxiang to take care of the little treasures, and led Yin Liuxuan to the study together with Lin Jinxiao .
After closing the door, Chu Nanzhi and Lin Jinxiao sat down together, took the brochure in Yin Liuxuan's hand, and didn't intend to arrange these trivial matters immediately, but asked him bluntly, "Erlang, last time At Chang’s home, I asked you about Jingling City, and you just said it’s fine, so could it be that you’re still answering this in front of your cousin today?”
Yin Liuxuan was stunned for a moment, and said with a blank face: "Sister-in-law, Liuxuan doesn't know what you mean by that?"
Lin Jinxiao was not familiar with Yin Liuxuan. In Haining County, Ji Cen'an mentioned that this person was sent by the Empress Dowager and His Majesty to assist him.
He was full of confusion until now, seeing Chu Nanzhi asking about this matter, and trusting him quite a bit, he couldn't wait to figure out something.
Looking at Yin Liuxuan, he said with a solemn expression: "Erlang, although I am not familiar with you, I still know you a little bit. You are the son of Dingguo's mansion, and there is only one elder sister above, but the Taiwei Arranging you to come to Luyan Port is a bit unreasonable both emotionally and rationally, Brother Yu also really wants to know the meaning of the empress dowager's move."
"Could it be that the cousin and wife feel that the little brother has a different heart?"
Yin Liuxuan showed a bitter expression: "Although I don't know why my father and the Empress Dowager let me come here, there is one thing I firmly believe in. Both my father and the Empress Dowager think highly of Your Highness, and they often Talking about you, if I have to tell you why, then I can only say that my father and the Empress Dowager must have placed high hopes on His Highness."
Chu Nanzhi nodded thoughtfully.
It seems that Yin Erlang doesn't know about Lin Jinxiao's life experience either.
Lin Jinxiao was about to ask again, but Chu Nanzhi immediately stopped him, and said with a gentle smile, "Lin Dalang, why do you have to make things difficult for Erlang, since he was arranged by the Empress Dowager, he was also acquiesced by Chang Lao, don't you believe that Erlang has something to do?" It will definitely not be hidden from us."
As he spoke, he took another deep look at Yin Liuxuan: "You think so, Erlang?"
"Of course, please rest assured my sister-in-law and cousin, my younger brother will never let down your trust."
Yin Liuxuan finished answering vowedly, and suddenly realized that what she said seemed to have a deep meaning, and added submissively: "That day at the old man's house, I did understate the situation in Jingling City."
"Then you can talk about it in front of your brother today."
Chu Nanzhi urged.
Yin Liuxuan curled his lips, and finally elaborated: "Although the current situation in Beijing is not completely calm, it is not too bad. The government has my father and Ji Shangshu to help the Empress Dowager and His Majesty to share the burden. The king's power is contending, and there is even Princess Shu sitting in the guard in the middle of the capital, and no one dares to do anything wrong."
Speaking of this, his expression darkened involuntarily: "It's just that your majesty's health is getting worse and worse, which is worrying. Today, my brother and his wife also saw it. Even the powerless concubine Yue Gui wants to use her stepchildren to participate in the party struggle, intending to fight for the big one. seat."
"No wonder she was eager to adopt Xiaobao at the banquet today."
Chu Nanzhi suddenly realized and nodded.
Lin Jinxiao frowned slightly: "As far as I know, Concubine Yue Guifei entered the palace relying on Wu Enrong's influence, and she was appreciated by the general Tang Yao and the queen mother when she arrived in the palace, but the queen mother wanted to support her own. If my son is the emperor's younger brother, Concubine Yue Guifei is asking for her own death."
"Cousin only knows one thing but not the other."
Yin Liuxuan said: "My cousin probably doesn't know the old affairs of the Qinghe clans. When the empress dowager Tian Yuchan was in Qinghe land, she was just the concubine of the Lin family. Not only did she harm His Majesty's biological mother, but she also caused His Majesty's illness. Besides, he That biological son is extremely tyrannical, how can he afford such a huge country."
After Yin Liuxuan elaborated, Chu Nanzhi had a thorough understanding of the past of the current royal family.
Before the Emperor Chonghua who entered Nanhuaguan had not been enthroned, the old Qinghe king Lin Tingxian was just a son of the clan who had not yet been crowned king in the land of Qinghe, because he had a good relationship with the former prince Lin Ting'an, and he was so close that he was the queen at that time Yin Enci loves it.
Yin Enci betrothed the twin nieces Givenyin and Givenu, whom she brought up with her own hands, to Prince Lin Tingan and King Qinghe Lin Tingxian respectively.
Ji Fanyu was plotted against by his concubine Tian Yuchan when he was pregnant, resulting in premature birth and the root cause of the disease, and died of illness not long after.
Tian Yuchan single-handedly wins over the powers of Qinghe's powerful clans, setting a strong precedent for concubines in the Dahe Empire. After Lin Tingxiandong Jinqin, she successfully ascended the throne of queen.
Later, Lin Tingxian was assassinated during the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven. Yin Enci and his courtiers supported Lin Jinsheng, the eldest son of his niece Givenu Yu, as the new emperor, and Lin Jinke, the son of Tian Yuchan, succeeded the throne of the new King Qinghe.
Hearing this, Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "In this way, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager have a feud, and Concubine Yue is well aware of the truth, so she is so confident in wanting to cultivate her own power."
"exactly."
Yin Liuxuan replied.
"But I heard that the King of Dongjin is not the heir of the Empress Dowager. Why didn't the Empress Dowager think of making him the younger brother of the Empress Dowager?"
Chu Nanzhi thought about what he saw today, and couldn't help asking.
"That's even more impossible."
Yin Liuxuan said with a smile: "His biological mother was just Tian Yuchan's housewife when she was in the Land of Qinghe, and she managed to win some affection from the late Emperor by virtue of her charm. The royal Taoist priests in Lingcheng secretly passed the song, it's so filthy, let's not mention it."
"So, the Queen Mother's followers are the most powerful in Beijing today?"
Chu Nanzhi could not help but sigh.
Tian Yuchan's son Lin Jinke inherited the title of Qinghe King, and with the support of Qinghe dignitaries like the Tang family, his power and prestige are extraordinary.
