Chapter 569 Letter from Beijing
Chapter 569 Letter from Beijing
After hearing Lin Sixing's words, Chen Qiyu still didn't open his mouth. He held a cup of tea and stared out of the window for a while, then showed a self-deprecating smile: "Actually, it's nothing, just seeing the appearance of the princess today, let me It was a bit of a surprise."
The meaning of what Chen Qiyu said was unclear, but Lin Sixing seemed to understand what he meant, and after a moment of silence, he answered in a low voice: "She has always been like this, very intelligent and keen. It's just that people in the world misunderstand her a lot."
"I forgot, Concubine Lin Gui is the foster mother of the crown prince." Chen Qiyu nodded, "Before the crown princess entered the palace, she had a lot of contacts with the Taiwei's mansion, so Sixing must know her well."
Lin Sixing neither admitted nor denied it, and still kept his original posture.And Chen Qiyu didn't seem to be expecting his answer, so he added after a while: "I never believed the rumors about her in Beijing."
"En." Lin Sixing responded in a low voice, without saying anything more.
The two just had a cup of tea each, looking out the window, not knowing what they were thinking.After a long time, Chen Qiyu spoke again: "You... don't you want to marry a wife? You are the only son of the Taiwei, and you have been unwilling to get married for so long. The Taiwei and his wife should be very anxious, right?"
"What about you?" Lin Sixing replied without asking, "No, it's the same. You're less than two years younger than me, and you're not too young. Your Excellency, Prime Minister, is also in a hurry, right?"
Chen Qiyu also did not answer Lin Sixing's question.The two fell silent again, tacit understanding.
At this time, Shangguanjing and Xiao Jingheng were still staying at the post station. They originally wanted to go to the state government office earlier, but they didn't want to receive a reply from the capital at this time.
It has been ten days since Shangguan Jing wrote the letter and returned to Beijing. The letter was sent by carrier pigeon, and the reply letter was sent to Qingzhou Prefecture by the guards of the East Palace at high speed and starry night.
During the martial law in Qingzhou, the guard who delivered the letter had just arrived, and he lost a lot of weight. After dismounting, he lay on the ground directly, and was carried by Qiu Shaoqing to rest.
There were four letters in total, from Lu Shilang, Lu Zhaoyi, Princess Cheng Shangguan Luan, and Shangguan Yuan.
These letters were all written to Shangguan Jing herself, not to Xiao Jingheng.Lu Shilang's wording in the letter was rigorous, not only on behalf of himself, but also on behalf of the Lu family, expressing his loyalty to Shangguanjing.
"He agreed." Shangguanjing handed Lu Shilang's letter to Xiao Jingheng: "We can start the layout in Beijing. Pull Liu Shangshu off the horse as soon as possible, and help Lu Shilang take the position."
"Liu Shangshu is easy to handle." Xiao Jingheng replied: "This grass has long been unstable. Chen Chengxiang, Lin Taiwei, and Su Dashi's faction are all watching his position, and these forces will cooperate to pull him off. .It’s just that we need to use some brains to successfully help Lu Shilang to the position, and we can’t let people find that Lu Shilang is the person we chose.”
"Use the second brother-in-law." Shangguanjing handed the second letter to Xiao Jingheng: "I also mentioned this matter in the secret letter to the second sister. The second sister will try my best to help. You ask the second brother-in-law to return to Beijing to clarify It's a matter of interest, let University scholar Su persuade Lin Taiwei to help Lu Shilang to the position together. As long as someone raises it, the emperor should have no objection, and there are my eldest sister and Lu Zhaoyi in the palace, and they will also secretly work hard."
"Also, look at this," Shangguanjing handed over the third letter, which was from Lu Zhaoyi.
If Lu Shilang's letter was within Shangguanjing's expectation, then Lu Zhaoyi's letter was completely beyond her expectation.She never expected it!After they left Beijing, the fighting in the harem became more intense. The Empress Dowager, Concubine Lin, and Empress Chen didn't intend to leave room for each other.
Under such circumstances, the one who suffers the most from Wuwu is Concubine Lin Gui, who is relatively low in status and has no apparent power in her hands.
A lot of things happened during this period. First of all, the empress dowager really introduced that "superior" to the emperor. The emperor seemed to be very satisfied with that liar. These days, he got close to the empress dowager who also believed in the "expert" Quite a lot.
Of course, the empress dowager did not offer respect to the superiors in vain. The empress dowager spent a lot of effort on matters concerning the Shangshe Bureau and the Shang Palace Bureau, but Xiao Jingheng and Shangguanjing picked the peaches without knowing it. She was in vain. She worked hard to clean up Queen Chen's cronies, but in the end, Shangguanjing arranged for her people through Shangguan Luan, but she always thought that the emperor personally arranged the candidates.
Although it still greatly damaged Empress Chen's influence in the palace, the Empress Dowager could accept this result, but she was inevitably aggrieved.The Empress Dowager even wondered if the favorite concubine Lin Guifei was behind the scenes. The candidates for the Shangshe Bureau and the Shang Palace Bureau appeared to be arranged by the emperor, but in fact they were Lin Guifei's cronies.
It has to be said that the empress dowager is worthy of being a veteran of palace fighting in the harem for many years, at least she guessed half of the facts correctly.It's a pity that she didn't guess right, Concubine Lin Gui was already a spoiled concubine, and Shangguan Luan hadn't been exposed yet, even if the Empress Dowager wanted to break her head, she couldn't guess that the peach-pickers were the ghostly young couple of the Eastern Palace. .
The direct consequence of this incident is that the Empress Dowager did not choose to directly cooperate with Concubine Lin Gui in this wave of struggle, and she was very wary of Concubine Lin Gui.Empress Chen also suspected that the matter between the Shangshe Bureau and the Shang Palace Bureau had become like this because of Concubine Lin's intervention, so she was merciless against Concubine Lin.
Empress Chen was the first to strike in this wave.When Xiao Jingheng left Beijing, the poisoning case of the concubine in the harem was only a preliminary investigation, and the case was not finalized. Of course, it was Xiao Jingheng's intention.
And this deliberately left tail was logically used by Empress Chen to the fullest.Right now, the princelings and the prime minister are fighting fiercely in the court, so Empress Chen wants to use this to bring down Concubine Lin. The lady is the adoptive mother of the prince and the daughter of Taiwei Lin. This is also a heavy blow to the princelings.
Empress Chen was still very meticulous in her actions. Not long after Xiao Jingheng left Beijing, with the help of Prime Minister Chen, he made a rigorous chain of evidence and asked a concubine with a low status in the harem to come forward to identify Concubine Lin.
The truth is not important, what is important is that the "evidence" in the hands of Empress Chen is complete.However, Concubine Lin Gui did not panic in the face of such meticulous framing. When Shangguan Jing went to see her before leaving Beijing, she had already vaguely reminded her, so Concubine Lin Gui had been prepared for a long time, and she was able to deal with it with ease at the beginning.
However, no one expected that the empress dowager would take the initiative to end the match between Lin Guifei and the empress, breaking the seesaw situation.This time, the Empress Dowager did not choose to cooperate with Concubine Lin as before, and aimed her finger at Empress Chen.
On the contrary, she planned to join forces with Empress Chen to bring down Concubine Lin Gui in one fell swoop.
——Here is the dividing line that I never expected——
Ah ha ha ha, I never expected that Concubine Lin Gui would be the first big boss to fall in the harem battle.
This cannot be blamed on her, the three sides insist that she can't lose, and she and the empress dowager can't lose together, but never expected that the empress dowager turned around and joined hands with empress Chen to deal with her.
So you can't underestimate the old lady, after all, she was the last Gongdou champion.
