The queen did have many things that she could not control, because she never had a choice. Her life was destined from birth. [Full text]
She waved her hands, not wanting to talk to Concubine Yuan anymore, and just said to her: "I will try, you can go back now!"
Yuan Guiren was smart and never pressed the issue. Since the queen was willing to give it a try, it was basically possible. So she smiled, stood up, and politely saluted the queen, saying, "Your Majesty, take care of yourself. The palace still needs your care!" After that, she left with her maid.
After Concubine Yuan had left for a while, two young eunuchs came in to help Fang Yi in. She was beaten with ten boards. Although the people in her palace were lenient, Fang Yi was afraid that Concubine Yuan would make trouble again, so she didn't show too much mercy. After these ten boards, although she was not unable to get up, her buttocks were covered with blood, so it was difficult for her to walk.
The queen felt distressed when she saw this, and quickly had someone help her to lie on the kang at the side, then waved her hand to send the eunuch away, and then said to Fang Yi: "You too, why are you competing with her? Could it be that she can really be the master of Jingci Palace?"
Fang Yi advised, "Your Majesty, let's keep things quiet. If my beating can stop Noble Yuan from talking nonsense, then it's worth it."
"How could she not lie?" The Queen said helplessly, "After all, someone has something on her. I'm afraid she will never be at peace for the rest of her life. I don't know how many times she will have to go through this."
"What did she ask you for this time?" Fang Yi frowned, "It can't be that she wants you to persuade the emperor to appoint a crown prince, right?"
The queen was startled and did not answer directly, but said: "Your words have reminded me. Will she ask me to ask for a prince for her next time?"
"Your Majesty, you must not agree to this!" Fang Yi half-propped herself up despite the pain. "Once the Eighth Prince takes the throne, and once the General's Concubine Yuan becomes the Queen Mother, even though you are the legal mother, how can you be a match for them? Not to mention that matter..."
"I understand." The Queen interrupted her, "Let's talk about the future later. Right now, we still have to find a way to resolve her request. You don't know, that woman...she wants to return to the position of concubine."
Concubine Yuan wanted to return to the position of concubine, and threatened the queen again. When she walked back to the Cunshan Palace, she was smiling all the time. The maid Yuexiu still didn't understand why Concubine Yuan could get benefits every time she came to the queen, and it seemed that the queen was very afraid of her, but she understood that she would know what she should know about her master's affairs without asking, and if she asked what she shouldn't know, she might lose her head. It is better to know less about many things, which is the key to keeping oneself safe.
As the two were walking, they suddenly looked up and saw Concubine Yuan stop in her tracks. Then she said in a sarcastic tone, "Oh, it's true that enemies often meet on a narrow road."
Isn't it true that enemies often meet on narrow roads? Feng Yuheng came to the palace to visit Concubine Yun today. He just came out of Yuehan Palace and bumped into this noble lady Yuan. Even Huang Quan muttered in a low voice: "It's true that you will meet whoever you annoy."
Feng Yuheng shrugged, "Since we've met, we have to say a few words." After that, he took bigger steps and even said to Huang Quan, "Hurry up, let's take the initiative to meet her, don't let her run away."
Huang Quan was helpless: "Miss, why are you so excited?"
"I'm not excited. It's because I saw the fighting spirit on Noble Yuan's face. We should not let him down." After he finished speaking, he came closer and greeted with a smile: "Noble Yuan, you're polite." Although he said he was polite, he just bowed his head slightly and there was no intention of formally saluting.
Noblewoman Yuan frowned and said, "Who did I think it was? It turned out to be Princess Yu. Speaking of which, I am a noble lady in the palace, and you are just the prince's wife. Shouldn't you be more polite when you see me? Are you looking down on a mere noble lady like me? I remember when I was still a concubine, you had to show great courtesy when you saw me."
Feng Yuheng looked at her with amusement, and asked in confusion: "Your Excellency has a really good memory, and you can still remember the things that happened when you were a concubine. Then you must not have forgotten that in addition to being the principal wife of His Royal Highness the Prince, I am also the Princess Ji'an of the first rank in the Dashun Dynasty. The title of Princess has nothing to do with whether you are a noble lady in the palace. According to the ranking of the female relatives, you are only a noble lady of the sixth rank. Why do you ask me, a princess of the first rank, to salute you?"
"Yes!" Huang Quan also said: "If you know etiquette, you should know who should pay respect to whom."
"You..." Concubine Yuan was so angry that she was fuming, but she didn't know how to defend herself. Indeed, according to the princess, she is the elder, but according to the princess, she is nothing, there are several ranks in between! She gritted her teeth, glared at Huang Quan fiercely, and calmed down her temper. Finally, her emotions calmed down a little, and then she said: "Forget it, let's not talk about whether it is polite or not. I just came out of Jingci Palace and met the Queen Mother. I happened to see the Queen Mother drinking medicine. I heard that it was given by Princess Yu? It's really a good medicine, and it smells like sweet tea. It's really enviable. You know, we concubines in the harem are still drinking the bitter medicine soup from the Imperial Hospital." She still remembered that she was so angry about the news from the south a few months ago that she felt unwell and drank the bitter soup for nearly a month. She asked Xuan Tianmo to go outside to buy the medicine, but Baicaotang was closed again. She finally went to Baicaotang in Xiaozhou, but was told that the patient had to go there in person to get the medicine. This made her very angry. Seeing Feng Yuheng now, she couldn't help but think of that incident again and couldn't help but say a few words.
But Feng Yuheng was even more puzzled, "Noble Yuan, are you sick?"
"You are sick!" Concubine Yuan retorted subconsciously.
But then Feng Yuheng said, "That's strange. Since you're not sick, are you envious or jealous? It's really funny. I've heard of people who like jewelry, gold and silver, and beauty, but this is the first time I've heard of people who like medicine. But since you like it, it's my honor. Now that Baicaotang has reopened, if you're really interested in my medicine, then you can go out of the palace in person to see the doctor and prescribe medicine. It's very convenient."
Yuan Guiren felt that she had made a serious mistake, and this mistake should not have been made. This was not the first time she had fought with Feng Yuheng. The first time, she lost her position as a concubine. Today, she just moved her lips, but found that she was still no match for him. This Feng Yuheng's words were obstructive and heartbreaking, and they could block her into a corner without leaving any room for her to turn around. She stood there angrily, depressed for a long time, but didn't know what else to say.
Yuexiu couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so she leaned over to Feng Yuheng, and then advised Yuan Guiren: "The master has been out for a long time, and it's cold in winter, so we should go back early!"
This was exactly the step that Yuan Guiren was waiting for, so she stopped pestering him, snorted coldly, and left with a flick of her sleeves.
But after taking only two steps, Feng Yuheng asked, "I wonder how the Queen is doing? Your Excellency just came from Jingci Palace, why don't you tell me about it?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Guiren regained her energy, smiled sinisterly, and replied: "Princess Yu is really thoughtful, but you must remember that you can only know a person's face but not his heart. Don't assume that everyone is a good person, or you will get bitten one day and it will hurt."
"Really?" Feng Yuheng said calmly: "It is most important for you to take care of yourself. Although it is still hard to tell who are the good guys, at least it is clear who are the bad guys now!"
Concubine Yuan was scolded again. She stamped her feet and left in a hurry without staying any longer.
Huang Quan frowned, and after hearing something, he couldn't help but ask, "Miss, what about the queen..."
Feng Yuheng waved his hand, interrupting her, then turned his head and said coldly to a rockery in the garden beside him: "Don't hide, come out!"
Just one sentence, Huang Quan was shocked. She was responsible for protecting Feng Yuheng, but just now she was busy listening to her young lady complaining about Yuan Guiren, and didn't notice that there was someone hiding beside her. When she heard Feng Yuheng say this, she also got angry and flew towards the rockery!
With a scream, a little palace maid was carried to Feng Yuheng like a chicken. "Miss, she is the one hiding behind the rocks."
"Princess, please spare me! Princess, please spare me! I am not a bad person, I really am not a bad person!" The little palace maid was so scared that she fell to her knees and kowtowed for mercy.
Feng Yuheng saw that she was just an ordinary palace maid, she had no martial arts skills, and she was not very good at hiding before. So she signaled Huang Quan to help her up, and then asked, "Which palace do you serve in? Who is your master?"
The little maid said tremblingly, "I was serving Concubine Li in Jingsi Palace. I heard that the princess entered the palace today. Concubine Li wanted to invite you to Jingsi Palace and wait for you. I sent this servant to wait on the road to Yuehan Palace. I didn't intend to hide, and I definitely didn't hide because of the princess. It was because I saw Concubine Yuan. Princess, you must know that although Concubine Li and Concubine Yuan are sisters, their relationship is not very good. I thought it was better to have less trouble than more, so I hid temporarily, but I definitely didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation with Concubine Yuan!"
"Lady Li?" Feng Yuheng was puzzled. "Why does she want to see me?"
The little maid shook her head, "I don't know."
"Forget it." Feng Yuheng thought for a moment and said, "After all, she is Sixth Brother's biological mother. Just for Sixth Brother, this princess should go and see her. Let's go! Let's go to Jingsi Palace."
At this time, at the Jingsi Palace, Concubine Li was standing outside the side hall door with her neck stretched out, waiting. She would adjust her clothes from time to time and ask the maid Zuo'er beside her: "How do you think I am dressed? Is it not embarrassing?"
Zuo'er said calmly, "According to the nobleman's system, it's just right."
"According to the nobleman system... isn't that a little too serious? Oh no, no, how can it be so serious? It will scare people. Let's change to another set."
Zuo Er pulled her back and advised earnestly, "You have changed three sets of clothes. She is the Princess of Prince Yu and the Princess Ji'an of the first rank. No matter what you wear, it won't scare her. This is good and in accordance with the rules. Don't change anymore."
"Is it really okay?" Concubine Li touched her hair again and found that her hairpin was a little crooked. She asked Zuo'er to straighten it and said, "It's okay for me, but I have to consider Feng'er's face! Only by dressing properly can she have a good impression. If she has a good impression of me, she will also be good to Feng'er."
"Master!" Zuo Er was anxious, stamping his feet and said, "Please don't say such things again. She is the Princess of Yu. Why should she be nice to the Sixth Prince for no reason? If this gets out, how can the Sixth Prince live like this?"
As she was talking, there was a noise from the other side of the palace gate. The door was pushed open halfway, and she saw the maid she had sent out walking in with Feng Yuheng and her maidservant. Concubine Li began to get nervous again...
