Chapter 99 The Subjugated Empress Dowager

He Bo sent someone to report, the noisy scene in the front hall suddenly quieted down, and everyone turned their attention to Yun Yao and Yan Feng.

Yan Qingling?Yan Huai?These two people are obviously only related to Yanfeng and Yunyao, Ba Xiong and the others don't know who is who, even Yanfeng is confused, and he looks at Yunyao blankly.

Yun Yao frowned, she remembered asking Yan Feng to recite their Yan family tree.

"Didn't you read the genealogy of Da Qi's Yan family?" She remembered that it was a thick book like a brick, and Wang Sheng found it out on purpose, because he was afraid that Yan Feng would forget about Yan's ancestors.

Yan Feng blinked and shook his head: "Ahem, I have only read the genealogy of the emperor, and I am too lazy to look at the genealogy."

"Yanhuai, King Jing back then, I remember that he was about the same age as me, and escaped from the capital with Prince An and other clans by boat, and then I didn't know their traces. Old King Jing is your father's uncle, Yan Huai is your father's cousin within five generations, if it is true, Yan Qingling is your cousin."

Yun Yao briefly explained, and ordered the servants to send a message to let Yan Qingling come in. As for the authenticity, they will naturally go to find out in private.

Ba Xiong immediately took over the words and said: "I'll have someone check the authenticity." The group of people from the Yan clan, he remembered, should be in the south of the Yangtze River. Why did the daughter of Yan Huai come to the capital for no reason?Of course she would go to the Qi Mansion, it was obvious, because the Yan family had no one else in the capital.

After speaking, Ba Xiong took the adults and children to the flower hall of the inner courtyard, leaving the front hall for Yun Yao and Yan Feng to meet the guests.

Yan Qingling's master and servant followed the servants to the front hall. She stepped into the door, glanced at Yunyao and Yanfeng, walked a few steps and knelt down in front of Yunyao.

Yan Feng was taken aback by her, this is such a grand ceremony, what exactly is he asking for?

"Qing Ling has seen her aunt and cousin." She took off the veil on her face, it was a face as pure as water, which perfectly matched her name.

Yan Feng immediately looked straight at her, Yun Yao raised her eyebrows, she didn't expect this girl to be so beautiful, and with this face alone, they don't need to doubt her identity.

What's the matter, Yanfeng felt so wronged at this time, obviously he was the biological son of the father, but this distant cousin looked five or six points like the father.

After all, the blood relationship is quite close. Yan Huai's great-grandfather is Yanling's great-grandfather. They share a great-grandfather and a great-grandmother, so they are passed down from generation to generation, but they never thought that Yan Qingling would look alike to Yanling. Similarly, Yanfeng did not receive such treatment.

"Why did you come to the capital?" Yun Yao had already made up a hundred thousand words of bloody stories in her mind, she pointed to the chair next to her, "Get up and sit down and talk."

Yan Qingling smiled wryly in her heart, her aunt and cousin didn't care about her parents' life or death at all, they didn't even ask a question, she got up and walked slowly to the yellow wooden chair and sat down, putting her hands on her knees, behaved in a well-behaved manner Aristocratic daughters are like pies.

Yunyao observed secretly, and heard Yan Qingling say: "My father passed away five years ago, and since then, I, my mother, and two servants have lived a simple life."

Yan Qingling looked sad, but Yunyao couldn't help interrupting her: "Where's your brother? When the accident happened, your brother was already seven or eight years old. Five years ago, your brother should have grown up. He alone What did the big man do, and why did you make your mother and daughter have a hard time?"

"I have never met my elder brother, but I only heard it mentioned by my father and mother. Every time I mentioned it, my mother cried so hard. My elder brother died of illness in the third year of our settlement in Jiangnan, that is, the third year of Kaiyuan. Then I was born."

The people of the Yan clan, the gentlemen were immersed in the wealth and glory of the past, holding on to the money they brought to sit and eat, and within a few years the money was exhausted, the gentlemen were getting old and passed away one after another, and the young people left behind were even more People who are useless, unable to let go of their self-esteem, have no livelihood, live in poverty, and some people take risks, mix with many scoundrels, and their family business loses faster. Yan Huai is still a responsible man, at least he Take on the heavy responsibility of supporting the family.

"Two years ago, when I was about to reach my age, my mother asked a matchmaker to help me with my marriage. The matchmaker was so unbelievable that he used my appearance to woo the magistrate's son. It happened that the magistrate and a group of friends were visiting Peng County. Seeing that I was being bullied, Blessed me, but the magistrate did not have nothing to ask for, but he is married, he wants to take me as a concubine, my mother doesn't want me to end up like this, so she took me and fled to the capital the next day."

The beauty cried so much that I felt pitiful, Yun Yao asked the servant girl to fetch water and handed her a handkerchief, and when she calmed down, she continued to talk about the bumpy journey of their mother and daughter.

Yan Qingling's mother died of illness on the road before reaching the capital. After Yan Qingling buried her mother, she stayed in the local area for 49 days before continuing to go to Beijing. She was a weak woman and had no other relatives to rely on, so she had to come here brazenly. Take refuge in cousin.The two maids beside her were rescued by her on the way. Although she was down and out, she could still take out a few taels of silver after forbearance.

Finally Yun Yao nodded: "I'll let you take you down to rest, and I'll have someone deliver lunch to you in the yard." After finishing speaking, she asked the servant girl to take Yan Qingling to settle down in the Leisurely Courtyard, and we'll talk about other things later.

Yan Qingling wiped away the tears on her face, saluted Yunyao and Yan Fengfu, and followed the maid to the leisurely courtyard.

In the flower hall, a group of children were having fun, and Ba Xiong and the others saw Yunyao's mother and son coming back, and Yan Fengyan's head drooping, their faces were full of curiosity.

Yun Yao couldn't help smiling: "Leave him alone, he is not satisfied with the face I gave him."

Yan Feng raised his head, his eyes widened, he leaned in front of Yun Yao and hugged Yun Yao tightly, and quickly said: "Satisfied, very satisfied, I just don't feel angry, she is just a distant cousin, why does she look so much like her father?" like?"

Yun Yao shrugged, Yan Feng was indignant, and after a while everyone understood what he was struggling with, so everyone became curious about this Yan Feng cousin who suddenly appeared.

After lunch, the children went to play, and went to Leisurely Courtyard together to see Yan Qingling.After a while, the children ran back one after another, the boy looked shy, and the girl had a dreamy expression.

"That elder sister is so beautiful, as beautiful and moving as the eldest aunt."

Yun Yao couldn't help but pinch the cheek of the little guy closest to her, "How old are you when you know how to be beautiful?"

"Auntie, don't look down on people. Appreciate beautiful things regardless of age." The little guy is Wu Yushu's youngest son, and he is the one who pursues beauty the most among all children.

Yun Yao sighed: "You are right, but my aunt is very worried about your marriage when you grow up. Although we often hear the legends of peerless beauties, in ordinary life, peerless beauties are actually rare."

"Then don't marry a wife." The little guy was extremely solemn, and the other older children rolled their eyes at him. Yanfeng couldn't help but look sideways at the little guy. He himself is already considered weird, and here is another person who has shown weird skills since he was a child.

Ba Xiong ordered Yan Qingling's identity to be verified, but the result would not be revealed until half a month later.During this period, Yan Qingling kept her own place in the Qi Mansion, Yun Yao and Yan Feng did not have any malice towards her, that is, Wang Sheng, Gao Qi and others turned a blind eye to her, and the clan did not dare to fart in the face of the five rotten officials. One, before fleeing the capital, no one thought that there was a pair of orphans and widowed mothers in the palace. Now that the Yan clan is down and out, why did they come here?

Yan Qingling's attitude towards Wang Sheng and the others was only a wry smile. In fact, when she saw Wang Sheng, Gao Qi, Fang Zhao and others, her expression became dazed. She didn't know why her aunt and cousin survived in this life. Her aunt and cousin in her previous life died on the day Daqi was destroyed. More than 20 years later, she met Wang Sheng, Gao Qi, Fang Zhao and others in the harem. At that time, they were already the chief eunuchs of various departments in the harem. , and it was they who made Cui Ming and others who surrendered to Ming Dynasty one after another destroyed.Compared with the past life and this life, which one is better for the ending of Cui Ming's five families?She couldn't tell either.

Yun Yao has no doubts about Yan Qingling's identity, but she feels that she is a disobedience to her. A talented young girl is no less mature and stable than a 30-year-old woman. When she is alone, her face is even more indifferent to everything. expression.

Half a month later, Yun Yao was almost certain that Yan Qingling had a special background.

Ba Xiong sent someone to check Yan Qingling's identity. It has been verified that Yan Qingling is indeed Yan Huai's daughter. Because of her beauty, she has been coveted by the prince of the government. Her mother has no choice but to flee with her daughter.

"Mom, I always feel that girl is so sinister that it makes people feel chills down the spine." Yan Feng shook his fan. He was quickly promoted to be the most beautiful man in the capital, squeezing out the previous five young masters in the capital and taking the top spot.

Young people are so willful and ostentatious, Yun Yao can only smile knowingly at this.

"Don't worry about her, she will have to bear the consequences for whatever she wants to do." Yun Yao was trying to make up Yan Qingling's previous stories. With her beauty, she couldn't be anonymous, and she was so obsessed with coming to the capital, it seems that she He has a lot to do with the sons of the rich and powerful in the capital.

Yan Feng shrugged: "When I chatted with her, I found that she knew a lot about the princes. I also pay attention to the news of the capital every day. I dare not say that I know the princes. It is strange that she understands so thoroughly. people!"

"Oh, what did she say?" Yun Yao couldn't help being curious.

Yan Feng pondered for a moment, then said: "She said that the first prince and the second prince are not harmful because of their low status as mother and concubine, and there is no reason for their relatives to rely on each other. It is no harm to say that I have acquaintance with the first prince and the second prince. The third prince and the fourth prince are respectively The sons of Concubine Sun Ning and Concubine Shi Jin, and their parents are important officials in the court. The two princes are very ambitious, so let me be careful when interacting with them. The fifth prince is the direct prince, but she just skipped it. Disdainful, the prince behind is still a few years younger, so she didn't comment."

After saying that, Yanfeng couldn't help touching his cheek, he looks like a pure and innocent little white rabbit, is he easy to bully?

"Did she go after the prince?" Yan Feng blinked, knowing from the details of his relationship with Yan Qingling that Yan Qingling is a very capable person, and she will definitely not be unable to live because of poverty. And with her wisdom, she can't solve that magistrate?

Yun Yao did not give affirmation: "Maybe, you don't need to worry about her, why is she always doing something for her purpose."

At night, Yun Yao and Ba Xiong talked on the bed, "You are really a panacea. I heard from my brothers and sisters that His Majesty's mood is much calmer than before. During the years when you were not in the capital, His Majesty was so praised by all the ministers that he almost went to heaven. , has a bad temper, and always suspects that the minister has a heart of rebellion, which makes the minister frightened."

"Hey, Yaoyao, you are talking nonsense! What kind of panacea, your majesty is purely in need of beating, he is the emperor, and the ministers dare not quarrel with him easily, isn't it just that the older you get, the more arbitrary you become, the son grows up, and he only thinks about what's in his hands I have never thought about how to teach my son well, and if I beat him a few more times, he will be fine." Ba Xiong said calmly, since he has no son to inherit, in the eyes of the emperor and outsiders, he is just as strong as he is without desire. typical.Everything that Yanfeng owns is not obtained from him. Just how much is that house worth?Right in hand?Military power cannot be passed on to Yanfeng, so Ba Xiong has a high prestige in the court, especially as the vanguard of the fire fighting team.

Yunyao gave him an angry look, Ba Xiong stared straight at Yunyao, and said happily: "Yaoyao, I have been tricked by a beauty."

"You are so beautiful, did I wink at you?" Just like that?But in fact, after watching it for a long time, I don't think it's ugly. Changing the subject, Yun Yao brought up the matter of Yan Qingling, "This Yan Qingling must be here to make trouble. With her beauty, I will go out with Yanfeng a few times. Everyone in the capital knows that there is an alluring beauty in Duke Qi's mansion."

"Don't worry about her, it's not a big deal if she arouses the hearts of all the young men in the city. Who doesn't have a youthful time?" When he was blacksmithing, he also looked forward to the beautiful widow at the end of the street, but it was a pity that he had no assets at that time. , Even widows despised him.Hmph, to this day, he has made widows unattainable, and he married the most beautiful woman in the world!

After that, Yan Qingling often went out, but there was no topic about her in Beijing. Another day later, Yan Feng took his younger brothers to participate in the poetry competition in Zhuangyuan Building, and Yan Qingling invited Ying to follow.

Young people have a circle of young people, and Yun Yao didn't pay attention all the time. She only knew that half a month later, Yan Qingling successfully squeezed into the ranks of talented and beautiful women in the capital, and became the focus of discussion, either hated or admired by others, or be liked.

The eldest prince and the second prince are married, the marriage of the third prince and the fourth prince has been decided, and they will get married in the next year, so the fifth prince and the sixth prince will not have a concubine. Where did the woman in the backyard come from?

The snow fell very late this year, and the heavy snow came down one after another in the twelfth lunar month. The weather was cold, and everyone was wrapped into a bear. It was still cold like this, and I wished I could stay on the kang all the time.

Yan Feng was invited to go out to enjoy the plum blossoms, this time not to the plum garden in the middle of the capital, but to the imperial garden of the imperial palace, Yan Qingling did not go with him.Ba Xiong went to enlighten the unbeaten emperor, so Yunyao and Yan Qingling were the only masters in the house.

"Girl Qingling, tell your aunt the truth, what are you doing now?" Yun Yao leaned on the couch, there was a brazier in the corner of the study, thick blankets were spread on the couch, and the incense burner in the west Wisps of green smoke were burning, except for a sliver of wind blowing in through a gap in the window, the whole room was warm with a sweet fragrance, and Yan Qingling was leaning on the other side of the couch.

Hearing Yunyao's words, Yan Qingling stopped turning the pages of the book, lowered her eyes, and it took a long time before she heard her voice.

"Auntie, do you believe in the resurrection of the dead?" Yan Qingling's voice was light and joyful, like notes sung by the spring breeze, "Maybe I actually had a dream."

"But this dream was so real that I couldn't let it go. I didn't want to repeat the same mistakes and escaped from Peng County with my mother. I thought I could start again, but I didn't expect that my mother would still die."

So this is a rebirth, but she still couldn't avoid her mother's death, and then she felt that people couldn't escape their fate, so she just took the initiative to get involved, at least she gained the initiative.

Yan Qingling's words came intermittently, some at the front and some at the back, but Yun Yao had already pieced together the outline of the story of Yan Qingling's previous life.

This is a bloody sadomasochism story. In the previous life without Yunyao and Yanfeng, Yan Qingling, as a descendant of the former royal family, lived in hiding in the world. Captured into the backyard as a concubine.But a year later, the son's family went to Beijing, and in order to curry favor with the prince, they gave her to the prince. From then on, she and the prince began to have a sadomasochistic relationship.Later, her identity was dismantled, and in order to leave a reputation of benevolence and righteousness to the people all over the world, she finally gained a status in the prince's backyard, and even got the prince's heartfelt promise. After the prince became emperor, she was named a noble concubine, but The beauty is late, but in her thirties, the emperor has moved on, and even under the frame of her new favorite, she was killed in a fire.

Didn't notice any special expression changes on her aunt's face, Yan Qingling wondered in her heart, didn't her aunt really go back to the past and change her fate like her?

"Then you want to take revenge on that prince? Just because of an inexplicable dream, you want to marry you for the rest of your life?" Yun Yao thought in her heart, she tried her best to persuade her, but if she didn't listen, she had no choice.

"Let's just assume that your so-called resurrection from the dead is real. Since you have spent your whole life on that man, are you planning to spend another lifetime?" Yun Yao glanced at Yan Qingling, saw her eyes were confused, and continued. Said: "The prince likes to pursue beauty. This is the nature of most men, especially the emperor. The emperor is rich in the world, and it is difficult for him to give up all the beauties in the world for a woman. This is his qualified right. Even if you spend another lifetime From your description, I can't see that the prince has any true love for you, I only see that you never forget that prince."

Yan Qingling covered his face with his hands, as if he was thinking, but also seemed to be silently choking, and said after a long time: "I want him to taste what it feels like to be abandoned by me." As for him not doing such a thing in this life, is it fair? ?She can't think about it too much.

Well, this person's obsession is too deep, and Yun Yao can't interfere with her choice.

From then on, Yan Qingling acted more grandly. Sometimes she would run out under the heavy snow just to buy a book, but in fact she went to meet a certain prince.

Moreover, Yun Yao also discovered that she bought some shops in Beijing herself, and she built up some power in private.

"Mom, what exactly does Qingling want to do? With her self-made ability, why bother to get involved in the prince's backyard? Like Aunt Wei, doing business, traveling all over the world, and chasing beautiful men, so free and easy." !" Yan Feng knew that his cousin's ability was extraordinary, and he was a little dumbfounded. Why does such a powerful woman follow the rules of being a husband and a child?She can make men obey their wives and children!

Yun Yao shrugged: "If you don't hit the south wall, you won't give up. She is too obsessed. Only by doing something, she may be able to get out of it."

As for who the prince is, Yunyao can be sure without guessing at all. Daming is now open and prosperous, but in essence it is still Confucianism, not to mention that the prince himself is also very good. Just in the prime of life, the next emperor is a certainty.Yan Qingling came to Yunyao and Yanfeng just to make the journey easier. With the status of Yanfeng's younger sister, many things will be easier to handle.

Yan Feng spread out on the bench, his head dangling, his eyes suddenly lit up: "By the way, Mom, after the new year, Uncle Ruan and Aunt Ruan are going to Beijing." He hadn't seen his fiancée for half a year I wonder if that girl forgot him?He knew that girl was heartless, and when they got engaged, she still doubted his intentions.

"Of course they have to go to Beijing. They're going to Beijing to prepare for their marriage." The wedding in March took only a month to get married in Beijing, so there was too little time.

Yun Yao glanced at Yan Feng with a half-smile, and said: "I heard that a certain person is very popular in the capital now, and is favored by young women, and there is even a little princess in the palace. I don't know if he really came to Beijing After that, should I give you a punch, or give someone else a punch?"

Yan Feng rubbed his nose guiltily, he was just making friends, who told him that he was good-looking and had a good family background, so he was to blame for being favored by others?He respects any woman like three feet.

"Mom, it's your fault for raising me so well. If I were a little uglier, I wouldn't be so popular."

Yun Yao chuckled: "Unreasonable, then do you have the ability to disfigure yourself?"

"That won't work, Zhen'er really likes my prosperous beauty!" Yan Feng spread his hands, and the fool would destroy his face, not to mention that he is only a little more popular in the capital, but everyone knows that he has a fiancée, so it's just I can look away and sigh!

"Beautiful." Yun Yao patted his forehead, and Shi Shiran went outside to enjoy the snow.

Yan Qingling, who came back from outside, stood on the porch and watched the mother and son playing in the snow, her eyes flashed a little moved, she was also a person who returned to the past, she lived her life as a beautiful poem, and She is destined to sink, but this time she remembers to leave a retreat at the bottom of the sink.
