Chapter 380 “The Imperial Concubine Who Sinks
What Suzu couldn’t figure out, neither could the Yi Royal Family.
“Is it really you?” The forbidden guards had been reminded by Song Yixiao, and after focusing on checking on Yi Wang’s little county princess, they asked for instructions from Emperor Duanhua, and then handed the case over to the Zongrenfu – the Zongrenfu was currently under the control of the Liang King, and when the Liang King led the men to take someone from the Yi Wang Mansion’s other courtyard, the Yi Wang Mansion’s entire household, up and down, were still feeling unbelievable!
After Yi Tai Fei couldn’t stop the King of Liang from escorting Lu Ning Night away, she even rushed to the front of the palace in anger to seek an audience with the Dowager Empress to seek justice for her daughter!
Who knows the dowager empress did not see, but first was heard of the jade fruit to take the evidence thrown a head and a face, “The dowager empress is for Yan Guogong worried about the heart, can not have that free time to see you! You really have time, or go to beg His Highness the King of Liang, see your precious daughter, ask her in the end what is the heart, even made such a heartless thing to it!
Yi Tai Fei trembling hand picked up a piece of evidence to see, suddenly is the sky spinning – just easily through the help of the subordinates to slow down, but she can not even go back to the house can not care about, rushed to find the King of Liang, requesting to talk to his daughter!
The King of Liang could be described as a six-parent family when he went to get someone before, but at this moment, he did not put on airs, and agreed to her very quickly.
After seeing Lu Ningyue, who had been temporarily detained in a small building, Yi Taifei asked her with the hope of an unlikely outcome if she was the one who plotted against Jian Qingyue or not – seeing her daughter hesitantly nodding, Yi Taifei’s entire body went limp, “Tian! How could you do such a thing?!”
“Why can’t I do that?!” Lu Ningyi had been silent all along, but after listening to Consort Yi reciting “How could you do this” over and over again and crying her eyes out, she got annoyed and couldn’t help but retort, “Instead of sitting on the sidelines and waiting to be killed, I’d rather fight to the death… -Now that I’ve lost, I have nothing to say!”
Yi Tai Fei suddenly stopped crying, do not recognize like looking at her daughter, “You … what do you say to sit and wait for death? Ah? Your good county princess …”
“What kind of County Lord is a County Lord like me?!” Lu Ningyi contemptuously interrupted her words, “The Qingjiang and Nanzhang appointed by the late emperor, as well as the Xinxiang, Xinling, and Anyang of the Hengshan royal family, those five are the proper county lords that should be honored with gold and jade! I am locked up in the Yi Wang Mansion all day long and live my life with fear and trembling, I say I am a County Lord, but in fact, when compared to other County Lords, even the two so-called righteous daughters of the Imperial Aunt of Jin, which one of them is not better off than I am!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
“How dare you do something like this for the sake of this?!” Yi Tai Fei’s heart wants to die, she said in a trembling voice, “Even though I’ve always advised you not to go out, so as not to stir up anger, when did the family shorten your food and drink? Even if our family income is limited, can not be compared with your Jin imperial aunt’s family, can be compared with the ordinary people is also considered to be brocade clothes and jade food is not it? You … are so confused!”
Lu Ningyi laughed out coldly, “Around in my mother’s family has been simmering these years, but if I still have a ray of hope, I will not step on this step! However, Mother, you have a good conscience, the Empress Dowager’s so-called heartache for my granddaughter, but what kind of son-in-law have you found for me?”
–Su Shaoge, the second son of the Qingzhou Su Clan, the world-famous Su Shaoge, the talented and beautiful Second Prince Su, the first nephew of the Empress Dowager, as well as, the beloved of both Elder Princess Yushan and Wei Yinlian, both of whom have been begging for a long time!
To be fair, even if the Su family is in a bad situation right now, Su Shaoge, with his own elegance, has got to be a high class girl willing to marry him.
The problem was that Lu Ningyi definitely didn’t belong to this category of high-class ladies!
“Since I hit the ground, all I have seen is a cold doorway! What I saw was the trembling of a family above and below! Saw the finger-pointing inside and out, and the ‘Quail Prince’ known in the neighborhood!”
Lu Ning night face green, word by word cutting teeth said, “in the generation of the country’s royal aunts in the house of a lackey would dare to rampage high and mighty, our family even lost the father within, but always have to be low-brow obedient life – even if occasionally called to the palace to participate in banquets, the seat to hear those unruly official misses, whispering that I am ‘little quail’! Even if I am occasionally summoned to attend a banquet at the palace, and I hear those unruly official ladies whispering that I am a ‘little quail’, I can’t refute it!”
She turned violently to the already sobbing Lady Yi, “Who am I?!”
“My first great-grandfather was the founding king, His Majesty Emperor Taizu!”
“The full grandfather was the son of the Great Ancestor, His Majesty Emperor Huizong!”
“Father is also of the Huizong bloodline!”
“In terms of bloodline, among the clan’s daughters, there is no one more honorable than me, except for the Imperial Daughter!”
“But what about the facts?”
“The same county princess, the daughter of two royal aunts, not at all surnamed Lu’s people, on the contrary, are living more wanton than me than my scenery!”
“Even with His Majesty’s bloodline has been far from the Hengshan royal family line, Xinxiang, Xinling, Anyang that three, which is not the stars grew up?!”
“These five are just fine!”
“Those two righteous daughters at the knees of the Imperial Aunt of the Kingdom of Jin–Pei Yourui and Nie Maizura!”
“The former is only the daughter of a courtier, but by a stroke of luck, she has gained the imperial aunt’s favor!”
“The latter says she’s a righteous daughter, but who doesn’t know what she’s actually from?!”
“These two have both been named county lords due to the imperial aunt of Jin and not to mention that both are living better than I am, and I’m not talking about it!”
“–Only about their marriage!!!”
“The one who is betrothed to Pei You Rui is He Lou Duhan, the top scorer in the last subject!”
“This man is rumored to be fair and handsome, and his age is appropriate for Pei Yourui!”
“With the talent of the Scholar, and with Minister Gu’s connections, and the assistance of the Imperial Aunt of Jin in the future, how can the so-called humble beginnings stop him from soaring to the heavens?!”
“As for Nie Mai Sakura!”
“The Su Wang she married, even if he was the loser of the Crown Prince’s bid, and had been a vassal since the late Emperor’s departure, is still a prince!”
“And Su Wang on the vassal before has been out of succession, difficult to threaten this on, this on for the sake of reputation or, in the face of the late emperor also, think idle will not move him!”
“So even if they are far away from the imperial capital, Nie Maizuo Cherry together with King Su and his wife are after all honorable and extraordinary princes and princesses!”
“And the Empress Dowager promised me to Su Shaoge – he is talented again, then looks outstanding again, then comes from a famous family, just based on the fact that their Su family had flirted with King Su to seize the Crown Prince but failed to do so, all of his all the advantages, for me and what is the significance of it?!”
Lu Ningyi ignored Yi Taifei’s shock, and said to herself, “After all, our royal family was in the royal grandfather, His Majesty Emperor Huizong’s fight for the Crown Prince, and stood on the wrong side of the line, and this is what has brought us to such a state of affairs today!”
“When the father died so unexplained, the result is not the palace to send a word, so the big things to small things to nothing, but pulled a few subordinates to top the crime?!”
“Now the Empress Dowager is also going to pick a loser in the race for the Crown Prince as my husband’s son-in-law, isn’t that to make me unable to get out of this kind of lowly, groveling, and suffering from all the aggravation in my life, and I may not be able to seek for the whole of the day?!”
She gritted her teeth and said, “To put it mildly: if the Dowager Empress Dowager were to give me to that Gu Shao as her second wife, I might not risk doing such a thing!!!”
“But she has cut off my way of life my hope all together, instead of being as careful with my words as my father has been for decades, and still not being able to escape a flying disaster, what am I doing not to believe in Cousin Yushan for a while?!”
“Yushan?!” Originally already wanted to go to the palace before bumping into the death of Mingzhi, just begging the royal family to be able to spare the rest of the Yi Wangfu Yi daffodil, sniffed a jolt, violently grabbed her daughter’s hand, and anxiously said, “You mean … that this matter is Jade Mountain instructed you to do it?!”
Yi Taifei is simply tears of joy, “I told you! Although you have flowers, but that is when you still hold in the hands of the thing, these years and has been in my eyes grew up, you just want to use smallpox to harm people, but from where to get this kind of dirty things! So, it was Yushan who compelled you!”
–Lu Ning night, despite the fact that it is hidden from the family to do things, but the dowager empress dowager personally raised the father and daughter of the Duke of Yan have gone out of the flower, such a big thing, she an unappreciated county princess where to take up the burden?
Even if Yi has a decision to die to beg the royal family to be merciful, but also know: she may not have the decency to be a consort in front of the royal family!
So at this moment, hearing his daughter mention the eldest princess of Jade Mountain was like a drowning man grasping a life-saving straw!
“No, no, no, how could it be that Jade Mountain compelled you?!”
“It must be that she terrorized you – also, she is the eldest princess! The late Emperor’s favorite daughter, His Majesty’s own sister, it’s only right that you’re afraid of her!”
Involving the future of Hefu and even her life, the thoughts in Yi Tai Fei’s head turned fast!
She quickly organized a thought, alertly looked around, saw that there was only her own mother and daughter in the room before she lowered her voice and said, “Night child, you’re good, listen to mother consort: the thing is actually like this, everyone knows that Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess of Jade Mountain adores that fiancé of yours! When the first emperor was still alive, during his recuperation period, the eldest princess of Jade Mountain, for the sake of Su Shaoge, froze her biological father to pass out!”
“Forgive me, but this Rapunzel has not repented!”
“To the late emperor, the eldest princess she was so disobedient, let alone you, her cousin.”
“And you didn’t even know that the filth she gave you was smallpox! You thought that it would only make it difficult for Jian Qing Yue for a few days – who would have thought that Her Highness, the Eldest Princess of Yushan, would be so cruel? Speaking of which, Mrs. Yan has spent some time with the Eldest Princess!”
Yi Tai Fei said this in one breath, seeing her daughter looking at herself dumbfounded, she thought for a moment, “Yes, there is still a reason missing: Her Highness, the Eldest Princess of Yushan, aims to replace you in marrying Su Shaoge, so what is the reason for her instructing, no, forcing you to conspire to kill the Duke of Yan’s daughter?”
Under the pressure of the survival of the size of the combined family, the Dowager Consort quickly thought of a way to say, “Of course it’s still because of Su Shaoge–who doesn’t know about this Golden Bough, that’s the one that forgets her parents when she sees a man?!”
“And the Duke of Yan is a direct descendant of the Imago, and made a great effort in the Imago’s ascension to the throne–Her Highness, the Eldest Princess of Jade Mountain, who is heartbroken for her beloved, will not hate him?”
But the Imperial Consort then considered that there were many direct descendants of Emperor Duanhua, so why did Eldest Princess Yushan choose the Duke of Yan?
“It’s because Duke Yan has always favored his wife, and his wife has a gap with the Lu family!” Yi Tai Fei bit her lip, thinking rapidly for a moment, finally having an idea, “So, Her Highness, the Eldest Princess of Yushan, wishes to borrow the hand of this silly child of yours to first murder the Duke of Yan’s beloved daughter, and then, to plant the evidence on the Lu family!”
“So provoking the conflict between His Majesty’s first family!”
“Stirring up the court!”
“Perhaps, His Highness, King Suk, who was only inaugurated as a vassal last year, still has a chance!”
“King Su is Su Shaoge’s first cousin, and even though he was passed on, his bloodline still exists–if he ascends to the throne, Su Shaoge will surely be hot!”
“Then how could Imperial Concubine Jiang and the others stop Her Highness, the Eldest Princess of Jade Mountain, from descending to him again?!”
Lu Ningyi looked at her mother consort dumbfounded, and only after a long time, did she eat and eat, “But, but I … I clearly …”
“What clearly?” Yi Tai Fei gazed at her with a deep gaze and said softly, “Things are clearly as I said – no matter what you said with His Highness King Liang just now, in short, remember this for me: what I said about what has happened is the truth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Her eyes became stern, “Otherwise, our entire royal family will be buried with you-understand?!”
