The daily life of the retired devil

Chapter 8 The Young General and the Tanuki Prince 08

On the same day, Xie Feiyan summoned his disciples, tested their abilities and confirmed that they were qualified, and then ordered them to release several contradictory, half-true and false rumors.

The first rumor should be the first to spread from the mansion of the Empress Dowager’s brother, the Minister of Rites, Mr. Gu, saying that Mr. Gu has always been the backbone of the Peace Sect, and he feels the pain of the common people for years of war, so he sent his beloved daughter into the palace. The reason why he showed the empress dowager in the palace was not because he had the desire to cling to the majesty, but because he cared about the world and set an example. In order to solve the suffering of the people in war, he did not hesitate to send his old daughter to the border to make peace with the Huns!

And the second rumor should come from the palace, saying that Miss Gu, the niece who was brought into the palace by the queen mother, is not only beautiful, but also has a pure and kind personality. Another concubine Li Gui!

As for the third rumor, it should come from the second prince's mansion, saying that the second prince's concubine has been depressed recently and has broken a lot of porcelain.

The disciples under the fake prince Zhao Sheng are not geniuses, but they are not idiots, so Xie Feiyan told these rumors, and they understood all sorts of things, and knew that the prince was going to put the Ministry of Rites on the shelf. Roast on fire.

But they didn't understand the intention of this move: the crown prince and Mr. Gu clearly had no conflict on the surface, let alone the need for conflict, so why would they do such a thing.

Facing the suspicious eyes of these people, Xie Feiyan smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, we will see the result in a few days."

So, the rumors spread like this.

Because the first two rumors were completely contradictory and because some people started making noises about them, they caused a lot of noise in the capital in just one day.

After hearing this incident, countless common people believed the first most vivid rumor, and all of them regarded Mr. Gu as a living Bodhisattva, and they almost set up the longevity seat in their homes for Mr. Gu;

Those with titles or officials in their families scoffed at the first rumor and believed the second rumor.After all, Mr. Gu is an old man, how can he give up his carefully cultivated old woman when he really wants to get married?Doesn't this mean that the investment in her daughter in the past years was in vain?So Miss Gu's goal in entering the palace must be the emperor, the imperial concubine!

But some people who think they are smart think more.This rumor is so vigorous, there must be someone stirring up trouble behind the scenes, pointing the sword at the daughter of Mr. Gu, Minister of Rites, but who is this?For what purpose?What kind of result do you want to achieve?After careful analysis, this matter all revolves around Miss Gu's future whereabouts. Could it be that Miss Gu was originally going to be sent into the palace by Mrs. Gu to be a concubine, but some people in the palace were unwilling to sit back and watch the Gu family become powerful, so this was given to her? Mr. Gu stumbled and set it on the fire to prevent Miss Gu from entering the palace?But who would this person be?

Thinking of the third rumor, these smart people suddenly realized: Yes, it must be Li Guifei!

Concubine Li Gui represents the power of military generals, dominates in the palace, and is favored by the sage. Naturally, she can't see Miss Gu, who represents the power of civil servants, entering the palace, so Li Guifei spread rumors and threatened Master Gu to dispel such thoughts, and at the same time Thinking about pointing Miss Gu to his son.

It's a pity that the second prince's concubine noticed the clue, and she was so annoyed that she smashed many pieces of porcelain in the second prince's mansion, which allowed outsiders to capture this subtle and incredible royal mind... After all, from the perspective of seniority, the Holy Majesty and Gu The girl is of the same generation, and the second prince and Miss Gu are of a different generation, and most people would never think of connecting them.

But the place where this incident happened is the royal family, the place that pays the most attention to rules and the least. The power in the court can surpass the prince in one fell swoop, and become the real "popular" prince. In this way, what kind of problem is the issue of seniority? !

So... that is to say, the second prince's party is aiming at the throne, and they have big plans!

There was a lot of discussion among the people, and in just two days, all kinds of rumors and explanations had been brewing and fermenting, and it was out of control!

And when Mr. Gu, who was at the center of the rumors, finally found out about this, it was too late to stop it.

Mr. Gu was stunned, his complexion and lips turned pale in an instant.

At this moment, he just came down to court and was taking off his sweaty court clothes, but now, after hearing such rumors, he couldn't stay any longer, tied up his court clothes, and was about to enter the court. The palace begged to see the emperor.

Mrs. Gu's wife, Mrs. Liu, chased after her in a panic, with tears in her eyes: "Master, our daughter, Ya'er, she—"

"Ignorant stupid woman!" Master Gu's back was soaked with sweat once again, and he sternly yelled at his old wife, "This is the catastrophe of my Gu family, and Ya'er is not the only one?"

Mr. Gu sneered, and said: "This person is disturbing the situation, but he is afraid of my Gu family's daughter entering the palace! But my Gu family has been able to last for hundreds of years, not because of this shady conspiracy! Others Confused, I only thought that this was Concubine Li Gui's plan, she was very thoughtful, she vented her feelings only because the second concubine couldn't handle it, but she didn't know that the second concubine was extravagant, and it didn't hurt to throw a few sets of porcelain! To implicate the two of us is just to frame us, to create an illusion of collusion between civil servants and military generals, and to arouse the fear of the Holy One, so as to condemn us!"

Liu's breath stagnated: "How could this be?! Who would do such a thing?!"

With anger in his eyes, Master Gu gritted his teeth: "Queen! It must be that Queen Chen!"

at the same time.

Concubine Li Gui, who had smashed countless decorations in her palace, also gritted her teeth and read Empress Chen's name.

"Chen Shuzi! Hello, hello!"

"How dare you plan on my head, do you think you have lived a peaceful life these years?!"

"Come here! Come here! Dress me up, I'm going to see the Holy Majesty!"

Therefore, that night, not long after the old emperor came down to court, he ushered in the crying of one of his veteran ministers and one of his beloved concubines.

After the old emperor patiently listened to everything, he flew into a rage, his face turned blue, and his chest hurt.But he had seen the imperial doctor and knew that it was just an old man's disease, so he tried his best to get through the heart palpitations, and ordered someone to summon the queen with a cold face.

For the past few days, Empress Chen has been feeling uneasy because of the "former court" and "secret medicine" that Xie Feiyan said.

She is a suspicious person, so she didn't believe everything Xie Feiyan said, but sent someone to investigate the secret medicine of the previous court and the people who left the palace at that time.

However, this investigation was fatal. The secret medicine of the previous dynasty was temporarily fruitless, but the spies in his own palace found out many more, and the list of people who left the palace was also released. Among them was her confidant palace lady!

Although the court lady was sent to contact Chen Guogong and deliver medicine to Chen Guogong, she was indeed out of the palace, and she was one of the most suitable people to murder her!

This kind of people……

Is such a person really loyal to her? !

Empress Chen was suspicious, even if she killed her confidant maid, she didn't get the answer of betrayal, but she was still frightened, and gradually felt the symptoms of physical weakness and palpitations.

She was terribly frightened, and firmly believed that she had been poisoned by the secret medicine, so she stayed behind closed doors in the palace, ignoring the palace affairs, and sent people frantically to find the antidote to the secret medicine of the previous dynasty, day and night. Yedi thinks about her own body, about the secret medicine of the previous dynasty that was passed on secretly, about her own future, and about the former prince who pretended to be her son.

I hate it!

I thought of her hunting geese for many years, but she never thought that her eyes would be pecked by birds.If she sends someone to find the secret medicine and antidote within ten days, then she will definitely not care about the power of the previous dynasty, the stealing of the dragon and the phoenix, and the conspiracy - she will find out everything!She wants everyone to be buried with her!

When Empress Chen was feeling angry, the palace servant who delivered the decree came to her palace and told Empress Chen with a low eyebrow that the emperor had summoned her.

Empress Chen was shocked, she didn't know why the emperor summoned her suddenly, because although she and the emperor were young couples, although there were times of harmony in the past years, but now, the relationship between the two can only be said to be respectful as guests .

Although Empress Chen is already a queen, she is not easy to be a queen.On her head, there is a mother-in-law Gu who comes from a well-known family and has a very bad personality who picks on her every day. In the harem under her jurisdiction, there is a beautiful and beloved Li Shi who relies on her natal family's power Never giving her face, plus countless pink and tender newcomers repeatedly entering the palace... Now, not only the old emperor can't think of Empress Chen anymore, even Empress Chen can't think of the old emperor anymore. His feelings are only superficial.

But now, it's not a festival, the emperor suddenly summoned her?

Did something happen?

Empress Chen suppressed her palpitations and went to the emperor's palace anxiously. As soon as she entered the palace, she was stunned by the shouts and questions from the palace.

"Mr. Chen, are you convicted?!"

Empress Chen was stunned.

crime?What crime?Is it the crime of stealing the crown prince?Or is it the crime of killing so many of your wives and bastards?Or is it the crime of stumbling the queen mother?Or is it the crime of colluding with people in the court to buy and sell official titles?

You should give me a hint!

That night, the lights in the palace where the emperor lived stayed on for a long time and were brightly lit all night.

Xie Feiyan let the diners go home early on this day, and just said goodbye to them with a smile.

"Everyone, some things may happen in the near future, but don't worry, just sit and watch."

"I assure you, within three days at the earliest, and ten days at the latest, the matter will be resolved!"

The retainers dispersed in a daze, not knowing what the prince's actions and words meant, and even the idea that "the prince wants to kill Mr. Gu" that he had firmly believed in when he spread the rumors faded away.

"Prince, what exactly does he want to do?"

"What is he trying to achieve?"

Everyone was confused.

And the next morning, they got two shocking news:

The first news is that Empress Chen was jealous, and was ordered by the emperor to hand over the palace seal, and Concubine Li Gui was temporarily in charge of the palace affairs, while Empress Chen had to stay in the Renming Palace, close the palace to think about her mistakes, and was not allowed to go out without purpose.

The second news is that the prince was implicated by Empress Chen and was also banned in the East Palace by the emperor. It seems that he has lost his sacred heart and is about to be abolished!
