Chapter 191 The Weak Emperor's Twin Widows 16



Ji Kang thought about it and decided not to tell Emperor Yongxi. He would wait until Nanny Leng found out about the matter.

He then secretly checked the people left behind by Empress Yuan.

"Who is this Nanny Leng?"

"Dongqing, the second-class maid of Empress Jinyuan."

"What did they say?"

"I wasn't too close, so I didn't hear it clearly."

"Keep staring, back off."

"yes"

Emperor Yongxi only hoped that Ji Kang would not let him down.

It was Empress Jin Yuan's maid.

Emperor Yongxi tapped the table with his fingers. For more than twenty years, Empress Yuanmu had neither been seen nor heard from in the palace.

Now the person Ji Kang went to meet in the cold palace was the second-class palace maid who once served Empress Yuanmu, which surprised Emperor Yongxi.

After the death of Queen Mother Yuan, Queen Mother ascended to the throne. She subdued those who could be subdued by Queen Mother Yuan, and eliminated those who could not be subdued.

However, the Queen Mother did not trust the people who had served the Yuan Queen Mother, so for so many years, there was no one from the Yuan Queen Mother's family around the Queen Mother.

But Nanny Leng in the cold palace was obviously the one who slipped through the net.

Obviously, there is more than just Nanny Leng.

Emperor Yongxi frowned slightly, feeling that something was going on here.

Ji Kang was able to serve in front of the emperor because he had been thoroughly investigated and had been trained through layers of assessments.

Ji Kang mentioned the matter of Nanfeng Pavilion, and Emperor Yongxi had already confirmed it in the archives.

But he didn't know that she knew Aunt Leng from the Cold Palace.

"Your Majesty, Imperial Concubine Yu has sent you ginseng soup and is waiting outside the Taiji Palace."

"I'm busy, let her go back."

Emperor Yongxi was feeling irritated and didn't want to see anyone in the harem at all. They all looked like the person behind the scenes.

Outside the Taiji Palace, the rejected Concubine Yu's face froze slightly. She didn't expect that even though she came in person, the emperor would not give her face.

"Your Majesty is very busy, so I won't bother you any more. Please ask Eunuch Xu to give His Majesty the ginseng soup. I personally prepared it this morning..."

Concubine Yu also revealed the tiny red marks on her fingers.

"this……"

Eunuch Xu in front of the emperor was a little embarrassed and could only say: "This servant is sending it to the emperor on behalf of the imperial concubine, but whether the emperor drinks it or not..."

"I understand. Thank you, Eunuch Xu."

Concubine Yu looked understanding and after handing the ginseng soup to Eunuch Xu, she sat in the sedan chair and left with her people.

Eunuch Xu sighed in his heart that Concubine Yu was the most tolerant and kindest concubine in the entire harem.

She is outstanding in appearance, family background and talent, but unfortunately she is not favored by the emperor.

Unlike Concubine Jiang, who relies on her status as the Empress Dowager's niece and the Emperor's cousin, and is arrogant. She looks at the servants' faces with disdain.

Concubine Jiang had no idea that she was being used as a negative contrast in the palace by Concubine Yu.

Upon learning that Concubine Yu was refused permission to personally deliver ginseng soup to the Taiji Palace and was not even allowed to see Emperor Yongxi, Concubine Jiang waved her hand to the palace maids.

"Stop the fire and stop stewing. My cousin won't be able to see me anyway. What's the point of sending him the soup? He might not even drink it, and who knows which servant will benefit from it."

Concubine Jiang obviously knew what was going on. She stood up angrily and asked, "Did the Bei family really leave the capital?"

"Your Majesty, I heard that he left the capital early this morning."

Concubine Jiang felt relieved. Seeing that Emperor Yongxi had bestowed such rewards on the mother and son of the Bei family, she was no longer worried that it was fake.

With the example of the previous emperor's empress dowager, Emperor Yongxi wanted to confer Bei into the palace, and the court officials were unable to stop him.

Now it seems that Mr. Bei is unwilling to do so, otherwise he would not have left so quickly.

She's quite sensible.

Go to the Cining Palace

The matter of going to Jizhou still requires the help of my aunt.

Seeing that Concubine Yu couldn't get through to Taiji Palace, Concubine Jiang had no choice but to try her best to move to Cining Palace.

Bei Lingyao left Beijing leisurely, her journey was very slow. She was not in a hurry, and she stopped and walked along the way to enjoy the wind and scenery.

She also personally taught her two sons, so that people passing by could always hear Bei Lingyao's unique insights and the children's clear reading voices.

They couldn't help but stop and listen, and some students even came forward to discuss.

The whole team was filled with a strong learning atmosphere.

Bei Lingyao also made the children practice martial arts morning and evening, which aroused the enthusiasm of the guards and made them become safe and sound martial artists.

Bei Lingyao's team grew larger and larger. She left more than a hundred people in the capital and took several hundred people on the road.

However, as more and more scholars and knights accompanied them, Emperor Yongxi was in a very bad mood when he heard about it.

He looked at the information of the scholars and knights on the list. They were not married and had no fiancées?

"How come at this age, you still haven't married or had a fiancée? Is there something wrong with you?"

The corners of Eunuch Ji's and Eunuch Xu's mouths twitched. It was normal that he didn't have a wife.

Some scholars will not marry until they pass the imperial examinations, not to mention the knights-errant, who go here today and there tomorrow, with an uncertain whereabouts, so it is not surprising that they do not marry.

And the Princess of Jinghua might not marry.

They knew the emperor's thoughts, but how could Princess Jinghua remarry so easily?

Otherwise, he would not have left Beijing in such a hurry. He must have been frightened by the emperor's generous reward.

Twenty palace maids and five hundred guards, this is not a treatment that ordinary people can have.

Not to mention the large amount of money and the houses and lands of the Tu and Lin families.

Moreover, the mother and son have three titles, so they don’t have to do anything and can live on the salary for the rest of their lives.

At this time, a secret guard flashed in, "Your Majesty, the Princess of Jinghua County has met Princess Fu'an."

Snap!

"Isn't Imperial Sister Fu'an in Jiangnan? How did we meet?"

"Princess Fu'an happened to be returning to the capital when she encountered him. She even wanted to give Princess Jinghua a few concubines."

Emperor Yongxi: "..."

This is indeed what his spoiled and willful eldest sister would do.

Princess Fu'an was the eldest daughter of the late emperor and was also raised by Empress Yuan.

After divorcing her husband, she started keeping a lover who behaved in a perverse and unruly manner. If such a person met Bei, wouldn't he be a bad influence on her?

Emperor Yongxi became anxious.

Bei Lingyao looked at Princess Fu'an, who was surrounded by women and looked comfortable and lazy, and felt that Princess Fu'an was very impressive.

Princess Fu'an glanced at Bei Lingyao and said, "I heard in Jiangnan that you beat the drum to file a complaint with the emperor, and I admire your courage. Our meeting now is fate, and it's a good opportunity for you to learn from me. I will give you a few concubines..."

"Thank you, Princess. I have long been calm and devoted to the Dao. Men will only affect my Daoist heart."

Bei Lingyao politely rejected Princess Fu'an and brought up her Taoist heart.

Princess Fu'an looked at Bei Lingyao, who was dressed simply. She had a cool and elegant temperament, and was extraordinary and otherworldly, like a Taoist hermit.

Princess Fu'an also believed in Taoism and gave herself a Taoist name, Changle Jushi.

Seeing Bei Lingyao like this, he discussed the Dao with her.

Compared with Bei Lingyao, a professional in Taoism, Princess Fu'an only knows the basics.

She was usually impatient to listen to the scriptures, but when she listened to Bei Lingyao's discussion of the Tao, she suddenly became enlightened and her soul was cleansed.
