"Second cousin, I have been thinking about this issue in the past few days, and I think it is very possible. An inexplicable dancer can actually come to Beijing, saying that she is redressing her father's grievances, and she seems to be sincere and loyal, but a
How could a little girl have such great ability to enter Prince Duan's Mansion? How could she be allowed to enter?"
Feng Yu chuckled.
Feng Yian lightly tapped the table with his fingers, and Feng Yian felt a bad feeling.
"The more I think about this matter, the more suspicious I feel. I have just sent people to Dali Temple to report this matter. Someone may have infiltrated my eldest cousin's Prince Duan's palace. I have to remind my eldest cousin about this matter." Feng Yu squinted his eyes and sighed.
He said, "It's just a pity that my eldest cousin didn't come today, otherwise I could have talked to him face to face."
"Did you send someone to Dali Temple to tell you about this?" Feng Yian asked.
"Tell me, this matter may have something to do with Concubine Xu. Concubine Xu was killed by someone. This can't be false!"
Feng Yu said casually.
"There was something fishy about this matter back then. Brother doesn't know about it yet. I'm going to take a look now." Feng Yi'an stood up and said with a serious face.
"Two cousins, we can't wait any longer for matters related to Dali Temple. For my brother's sake, I'll take the first step. I'll have a banquet for you two next time." Feng Yi'an bowed his hands to them, turned around and strode away.
Originally, Feng Yi'an would not leave. His father did not want to see that the Crown Prince of Zhongshan and the Crown Prince of Qi were now close, especially when the two were together in private, but he had no choice but to leave.
Looking at Feng Jingze's appearance just now, he probably dared to be angry with Feng Yu but dared not speak out. This is good. This is also an important reason why Feng Jingze dared to leave.
He also had a hand in the dancing girl's matter. It was Feng Yu who was the eldest brother's scheming partner. I don't know how he dealt with it after it didn't work out.
There is something about the dancing girl, but some details are wrong.
I don’t know if the eldest brother has really smoothed everything over. Dali Temple intervened. If he doesn’t smooth things over, new disputes may arise...
The sound of "dong dong dong" footsteps was heard on the stairs, and then the footsteps faded away. Sitting on the wicker chair in the attic, I could see clearly that King Yong was leaving in large strides.
"Is there a big mistake about the dancer?" Feng Jingze said in surprise.
Feng Yu smiled: "A little bit."
"These two princes of the royal family actually did such a thing." Feng Jingze said disapprovingly. Compared with the aggrieved look in front of King Yong just now, Feng Jingze looked much better now. He picked up the jade cup in front of him,
After shaking it, he drank it all in one gulp: "The girl in the backyard can actually do it here. She is really... incompetent."
The last two words were airy, with a bit of disdain, and the corners of his lips curled up with a hint of ridicule.
"Actually, I don't blame them, it's the Queen's intention." Feng Yu smiled, his handsome eyes slightly curved, and he looked in the direction of the palace silently, "With this and my aunts here, I have to please my aunts.
Whether a cousin can ascend to Dabao or not depends on the queen’s wishes in the end.”
"Queen... so powerful?" Feng Jingze was surprised.
Feng Yu smiled and said nothing.
Feng Jingze also came to his senses at this time and did not dare to ask any more questions. Instead, he told Feng Yu everything about what happened when he went to Minghe Grand Duke's residence.
After he finished speaking, he said: "Fortunately, my clan brother told me what might happen, otherwise I would really panic and marry the granddaughter of the eldest princess Minghe, who is still my favorite granddaughter!"
If Feng Yu hadn't asked him to pay attention to the granddaughter of the eldest princess Minghe, he really didn't know that the eldest princess Minghe had a granddaughter, but they were all concubine granddaughters. I didn't hear that there was any particularly outstanding one, and I didn't hear that the eldest princess Minghe had a granddaughter.
There is also another beloved granddaughter.
"The strength in the hands of Princess Ming and the eldest daughter." Feng Yu said with a half-smile.
"It looks a bit like it, so I'll hold it off as you said." Feng Jingze said.
"Did you say something about Prince Duan's Mansion sending someone?" Feng Yu narrowed his eyes and asked in a soft voice.
"I didn't say it. I just said that she loves this concubine granddaughter very much, but because her identity is not a direct descendant, it is not convenient for others to know." Feng Jingze curled his lips disapprovingly and sighed, "Ming and the eldest princess didn't tell the truth!"
"You are just one of her targets now." Feng Yu glanced at him sideways and said disapprovingly.
After this incident, Ming and Princess Dachang's thoughts changed again.
"Brother, what should we do now?" Feng Jingze asked.
"Wait for a moment... There are so many things going on in Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, or Jing Zhaoyin, so we have to do something serious. With so many things, none of them have been investigated clearly, and the incompetence is evident."
Feng Yu chuckled, his handsome eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone was pleasant but with a bit of icy coldness.
Feng Jingze also smiled: "How is Ming getting along with the eldest princess?"
"You don't have to do anything, so as not to trouble the two cousins who have to take time to see us during their busy schedules." Feng Yu shook the wicker chair with a leisurely expression, looked at the scenery outside, and suddenly said: "In a few days
There will be a chrysanthemum viewing banquet here tomorrow."
Feng Jingze was surprised: "Who is the prince going to entertain?"
"It's not about inviting someone to the banquet, it's about seeing who comes." Feng Yu said lazily...
The news that a dancing girl had sneaked into Prince Duan's mansion suddenly appeared in everyone's ears.
I heard that this matter is also related to the Crown Prince of Qi, the Crown Prince of Zhongshan, as well as Prince Yong and Prince Duan. The incident happened in Prince Duan’s palace, and Dali Temple specially sent people to investigate.
During this period of time, Dali Temple was really in a state of distress. Not to mention that Prince Qi would visit from time to time, and the previous affairs had not been investigated clearly. Looking at Prince Qi's appearance, he had no intention of letting Dali Temple go.
Dealing with the Crown Prince of Qi was already a headache, and then the Crown Prince Yangshan Hou was assassinated, and the daughter of the Marquis of Zhennan also got into trouble.
Whose family doesn't have several daughters and granddaughters? Now even the legitimate daughter of Zhennan Hou Mansion can get into trouble. Why don't those aristocratic families panic? This matter is even more alarming than the murder of Prince Qi. After all, this may be related to their own family.
, Think about the Zhennan Hou Mansion. It is clear that she is a legitimate daughter with an extraordinary status and is also the cousin of Princess Duan. With such status, it is okay to marry into the royal family and become the main wife.
But because of such a thing, her reputation was damaged and she had to marry Yangshan Hou Shizi as a concubine.
This is such a humiliating thing. So what if Prince Yangshan is the consort of the princess? With his status, he is at most the same status as the girl from the Zhennan Hou Mansion, and he can be the main wife.
Now I can only be a concubine!
This matter has not yet been investigated clearly. The aristocratic families in the capital are very cautious and their daughters and granddaughters are absolutely not allowed to travel late at night.
Dali Temple was even questioned openly and secretly by many people, and the minister of Dali Temple was even more headache-ridden.
Now the incident involving Concubine Xu of Prince Duan's Mansion has come out. So far, nothing has been found. The Minister of Dali Temple was scolded by the Emperor and was almost hit by the Emperor's tea cup. He went out with tea dripping from his head and stood at the steps of the Imperial Study Room.
I am endlessly worried, things are piling up one by one, and if I can’t find out anymore, I’m afraid my black hat will be worn to the end.
Even the heads of his whole family cannot be saved.
Thinking of this consequence, Dali Temple left the palace in a hurry and asked Xu Anjiao about it without even returning to the house. After all, this incident just happened. Without the assassin, it felt like it should be easier to investigate than the first two incidents.
As for this kind of assassination matter, the Minister of Dali Temple was also troubled and couldn't tell. He even felt that these things were done by the royal family themselves. How could he investigate this? Can he investigate it?
Assassination of Prince Qi and Prince Zhongshan?
These two people have just entered Beijing. Who will kill them before they enter Beijing?
As for Crown Prince Yangshan, I don’t even know. Who would benefit from assassinating Crown Prince Yangshan? It seems hard to tell at the moment, but maybe the dispute over the Houdong Palace has something to do with it.
The Seventh Princess is the Queen's legitimate daughter, and Crown Prince Yangshan is the Seventh Princess's consort. The prince has not yet been decided, so the Queen plays a decisive role in establishing the position of the East Palace.
The Minister of Dali Temple did not dare to think about what to do next...
Anyway, these things related to the assassins, he felt that they might have something to do with the royal family. But in this case, he felt that there were no traces of the assassins, so maybe they could still be found.
At this time, the Minister of Dali Temple was shocked when he received the news from Prince Qi's Mansion. According to people from Prince Qi's Mansion, this incident happened when Prince Qi's Crown Prince came to Beijing, and Prince Duan had not yet got married.
But just a few days before the wedding, this matter had something to do with Concubine Xu...
For various reasons, the Minister of Dali Temple personally took people to Prince Duan's Mansion.
Maybe this incident is a clue, or the truth about Concubine Xu can be found out from this incident. If he can't find out the truth about the incident again, the emperor will not be lenient.
So as the Minister of Dali Temple went to Prince Duan's Mansion in person, the news spread silently.
Hearing that the Minister of Dali Temple came here specially, Feng Lanxiu frowned. The government had already checked it before, and Feng Lanxiu was really unwilling to have it checked a second time.
But he had to let people in, and in the end he had no choice but to let the Minister of Dali Temple welcome him in.
The minister of Dali Temple, whose surname was Lu, entered the study and bowed respectfully to Feng Lanxiu above: "I have met His Royal Highness Duan Wang."
"You're welcome, Mr. Lu." Feng Lanxiu smiled slightly and pointed to the chair next to him, "Please sit down!"
"Thank you, King Duan!" the Dali Temple Minister smiled, and sat down on a chair on the side. The servants brought tea and then left.
Feng Lanxiu stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyebrows: "Master Lu, is there someone who killed Concubine Xu? Please tell me."
The Minister of Dali Temple choked, but then he raised his hand and said with a serious face: "Prince Duan, I have made a new discovery about this matter."
"What did you find?" Feng Lanxiu became interested and looked up at him and asked.
Mr. Lu was silent for a moment, and then asked: "Your Majesty, I heard that something happened in your house before, and it was a woman's matter. This matter also related to the Crown Prince of Qi, the Crown Prince of Zhongshan, and even His Royal Highness Prince Yong at that time.
Are they all here too?"
Feng Lanxiu's heart sank, and he asked rhetorically: "How did Mr. Lu know about this?"
It seems like this is really happening?
Mr. Lu's heart tightened and he said hurriedly: "The Crown Prince of Qi sent someone over and said that this matter may be related to Concubine Xu's affairs. He asked his subordinates to go to Prince Duan's Mansion to conduct a thorough investigation."
In one sentence, Feng Lanxiu was so angry that he almost fell down...
