When Concubine Hui woke up early in the morning, she felt her eyelids twitching and her temples were swollen and painful.

The big event that happened to the Pei family at the three-army reward banquet yesterday shocked her. Originally, the Pei family had sworn to her that as long as she could facilitate the marriage between Pei's daughter and King Jing, the Pei family would be happy. He would unreservedly recommend himself to wait for the next position in the previous dynasty, but now the recommendation has not been successful, and the Pei family themselves will first shake off some private affairs of the year because of a junior's drunken nonsense.

Concubine Hui didn't sleep well all night, thinking about what she said to Emperor Jin Yuan a few days ago, now she just wants to find an opportunity to separate herself from the Pei family quickly, so as not to get a little dirty.

The eldest maid in Yulin Palace, Biyu, was with Concubine Hui before she left the pavilion. After Concubine Hui woke up from the bed, Biyu took a wet handkerchief to clean Concubine Hui's face, but Concubine Hui blocked it with her hand .

Biyu used to look at Concubine Hui's face, she saw Concubine Hui's expression was discordant, so she asked tentatively, "Niang Niang?"

Concubine Hui rubbed her forehead and said, "Ben Gong's eyelids are twitching very much."

"Your Majesty is..." Biyu opened her mouth worriedly, she wanted to ask something, but she stopped and said, "Why don't you invite the imperial physician to treat your Majesty?"

Concubine Hui said lightly that she was fine, but at this time, the little maid in Yulin Palace who was holding a copper basin leaned forward to show her face to the master and said, "Mother, before slaves and maids enter the palace, there is an old saying in the village: It is said that the left eye jumps for wealth and the right eye jumps for disaster, and the mother's life is rich and rewarding, so it must be the left eye that jumps."

The little court lady was clever, seeing that Concubine Hui's finger was pressing the left temple, she couldn't help but pretend to be smart and stepped forward to compliment her, but she didn't know that Concubine Hui's finger was on the right eye, and the pressing on the left temple was also caused by swelling pain, the little palace lady's voice fell , Concubine Hui couldn't bear it anymore, and said with a pale face: "Which lowly maidservant are you, did I ask you to speak?"

The little maid's face turned pale, knowing that she had said something wrong, she knelt down on the ground with a plop.

Concubine Hui looked at her annoyedly: "Biyu, teach her how to behave."

Biyu lowered her eyes and said yes, put down the handkerchief in her hand, pinched the chin of the kneeling little palace maid and "slapped" and slapped it heavily with a dozen hands.

Concubine Hui asked coldly, "Do you understand the rules?"

The little palace maid didn't dare to cry loudly, she covered her face and said with a trembling voice: "This servant will never dare again..."

It was probably because concubine Hui was in a better mood after cleaning up a maid who didn't know what to do. Although her right eyelid twitched made her feel jealous, it still didn't affect her going to greet the Queen Mother Zhao early, and with Concubine Rong sneered at each other.

Zhang Guijun's health is still as bad as ever. Because he had a miscarriage earlier, his whole body looked as if he was about to ascend to the sky. It's because she has never been in Zhang Guijun's bedroom, although Zhang Guijun seems to be the highest ranking person in the palace after Yuan Houfeng passed away, but Concubine Hui didn't take him seriously at all.

"Look at his sickness, it's really unlucky for people to look at him." After greeting the Queen Mother Zhao, Concubine Hui sat on the palace table, and she couldn't feel a little more ridicule in her words, "This man's fate is not the same as that of others. Same, so what about noble birth, isn't it..."

Just as she was talking to Biyu, the confidant eunuch in the Yulin Palace in the distance trotted towards her in a hurry, and whispered beside Concubine Hui, "Mother, I'm afraid the Pei family is in trouble!"

Concubine Hui's expression changed: "The case is closed?"

The confidant eunuch lowered his eyes, and told Concubine Hui one by one the news he had inquired: "It's over! The servant inquired and said that the young master of the Pei family did not survive the torture in prison, and how did the second bedroom master of the Pei family hit him to death?" The youngest son of the Yang family and how he framed him for the dead ghost afterwards were recruited, Lord Yang was distraught in the early court, and almost beat Lord Pei to death, but His Royal Highness Prince Jing stopped him in the end."

"Prince Jing..." Concubine Hui frowned, and asked hastily, "Then what happened to the Pei family, and Mr. Pei's line was implicated by the second-bedroom master?"

"Somewhat implicated." The confidant eunuch said in a low voice, "The second house master of the Pei family was taken off the black hat and distributed to the frontier for the crime of murdering an important official in the court. The men of the Pei family headed by the adults were all demoted three grades in a row, and were punished for four years, and all the female relatives were taken back as wives, except Mrs. Pei."

Concubine Hui frowned when she heard this, bit her red lips lightly and said, "The Pei family is indeed over."

The official position was demoted three levels in a row, and the wife withdrew the order, which basically drove the Pei family out of the circle of mainstream families. If within ten years, no descendants of the Pei family can show their prominence in the ruling and opposition parties, I am afraid that the protection of the ancestors of the Pei family will be exhausted. , it will completely obliterate everyone.

"But ma'am, although the Pei family has fallen, there is still good news from this slave." The confidant eunuch hurriedly added another sentence when he saw Concubine Hui frowning and remained silent.

Concubine Hui gave him a sharp look: "Why don't you tell me about something good?"

"Your Majesty, you don't know that the case of the son of Duke Ning's mansion who jumped into people with a horse was also settled. Ning Zuoting is the son of Duke Ning, but he is arrogant by nature and does not put the lives of the people in his eyes. His Majesty sentenced him to Qing Dynasty." In Lingsi Temple, he cut his hair to become a monk, and for the rest of his life he had to chant scriptures and pray for the family of Juzi who was killed by him. As for Duke Ningguo who shielded his youngest son and formed a party with Jing Zhaoyin for personal gain, His Majesty personally said that he had no way to teach his son. The duke's title is only reserved for official positions, and he is even ordered to shut up and think about his mistakes, saying that he will not be used to go to court until the Queen Mother's birthday next year."

"Is this true?" Concubine Hui almost couldn't stop the smile on her face when she heard this.

Originally, after the death of the Empress Yuan, Zhang Guijun was useless as the head of the palace. The Emperor Jin and Yuan didn't like the twins, so he would not make Zhang Guijun his queen. Concubine Rong and Concubine Li had an heir. As the crown prince, he will definitely not add concubines with heirs to compete with the crown prince. Since then, he is the only concubine who is high in the palace and has no children.

Before the draft, Concubine Hui thought that she was the one who was most likely to aspire to the next position, but the Ning family had great ambitions, and sent in a prostitute who looked like the Empress Yuan, which attracted a lot of attention from Emperor Jin Yuan. , and become one of the hottest candidates after the new post.The existence of Ning Anrong seemed to be a thorn in Concubine Hui's heart, and she wished that before the show girl was sealed, the daughter of the Ning family would suddenly die in Chuxiu Palace after suffering from an emergency.

Of course, Concubine Hui's thoughts were completely before half a cup of tea. Now that the Ning family has committed suicide by themselves, it's fine to be deprived of their titles. However, Duke Ning was kicked out of his rights by Emperor Jin and Yuan with the sentence "don't use it to go to court" center.

The Ning family no longer has the glory of the past, and wants to be a new empress?

I'm afraid it's hanging on top of each other.

Concubine Hui had a bright smile on her face, she had long forgotten the eyelids that made her upset in the morning, and she rewarded her confidant eunuch with a jade wish, and sent him down to continue inquiring about news.

Biyu went up to beat Concubine Hui's leg: "Your Majesty has endured for so many years, and finally the clouds parted to see the moon."

Concubine Hui glanced at her indifferently, her eyes were full of complacency, as if she had a chance to win.

At the same time, in Uncle Changping's mansion, the officials who came to count the wealth of the Wei family frowned and said to Uncle Changping: "Uncle, the things in your treasury and the records in the Wei family's ledger may not be quite right. ah."

Uncle Chang Ping cupped his hands and said: "Your Excellency, I don't know, the internal affairs of this house are all handled by my wife. If you think something is wrong, you can call her here and ask."
