The New Year's Day walked around, and the Lantern Festival soon came. Cheng Yujin still remembered that the emperor was so active last year that he took the palace concubine to the lantern tower to "fun with the people". Now that the prince is back, the emperor has no interest in playing with the people and stays in the palace as usual.

Queen Yang saw it and snorted coldly in her heart.

At the Lantern Festival banquet, Cheng Yujin routinely sat on the high platform and visited the mascot in public. It is rare that this year, Empress Yang also gave her face to attend the Lantern Festival banquet. She sat on the head and called the wives and ladies from time to time to see each other.

Yes, the meaning of Empress Yang to see Zheng Fei for the second prince is very obvious. Empress Yang said for a while that the Miss Zhao family was virtuous, and for a while that the Li family was beautiful and quiet, in short, she did not accept the words of the Dou family. In this way, there is nothing else that people in the capital can't understand. Dou Xiyin was hanged for seven or eight years, but now he is completely abandoned by Empress Yang.

Therefore, there was a gust of wind in the capital. Some people were rushing, and some people made their daughters sick. Instead of going to the empress's banquet, they quickly got married in private. Everyone has their own opinions and attitudes, but there is no doubt that one thing is unified.

That was Dou Xiyin, the Dou family, which became a complete joke in the capital.

Cheng Yujin said in fairness that Queen Mother Yang did not do this properly. Since there was no such intention in the beginning, then don't give Dou Xiyin hope, hang people for seven or eight years, and lively drag from a girl into an older woman to be married. Now that Dou Xiyin has reached her age, in the age of the 13th and 4th most suitable for marriage, both Dou Xiyin and the Dou family are thinking about the second prince in one heart, and there is no such thing as Zhang Luo. Now Empress Yang suddenly said that she didn't mean it. At first, she just watched the two children play cutely, and the marriage contract was not counted. It was too much.

But the choices you make are yours to bear, even if the empress dowager is not authentic, the one who ran into the palace one day was Dou Xiyin, and the one who looked above the top and looked down on other men was Dou Xiyin. Now that I can grow melons and grow beans, I can't do it, and the imperial concubine can't do it. I have missed a good time to discuss my relatives. In addition to complaining about himself, Dou Xiyin can't blame others.

Cheng Yujin is a person who can see clearly. She is ruthless to others, the same is true of herself, and will not put two standards on others. Unfortunately, Dou Xiyin is clearly not the case.

Cheng Yujin Yu Guangli saw Dou Xiyin quietly going out of the door, she didn't move her eyes as if she didn't see it.

Dou Xiyin was suffocating in the hall and could not bear it. He went out to ventilate. She walked forward hatefully in the cold wind, stepping on her footsteps loud and heavy all the way, fantasizing about the faces of those obscene boudoirs under her feet, and violently left the incense stick before finally calming down.

Unconsciously, she was far away from the banquet. Dou Xiyin stood in the cold wind, looking at the red walls and blue tiles she knew best in seven or eight years, towering Miyagi, and felt pitiful and sad.

She originally thought that she belonged to this court. So every time he entered the palace, Dou Xiyin looked at the soaring red wall, the magnificent glazed tiles, and the strict access control, and he felt proud and proud. Because she knew that she would be the hostess of all this. The highest honor and dignity of a woman under the sky will belong to her.

Dou Xiyin never thought that he would marry someone else, and he would not think that the second prince would marry another woman. She believed the Queen Mother Yang that way, how could she know that the Queen Mother Yang was cheating her.

Now it's alright, Queen Mother Yang openly hit Dou's family and Yang Yan's face. Dou Xiyin was reduced to a joke in Beijing and she still faced the dilemma of not getting married. After hearing the wind, the Dou family doubted the letter and waited for a while, seeing that the Queen Mother Yang was really planning to choose the concubine for the second prince. Yang Yan drank her head and quickly showed her son-in-law to Dou Xiyin. Only then did she find that a good candidate was picked up a few years ago, and the rest were all crooked dates. Either misbehaving or sleeping in the house, or the family is a wolf tiger den, and there are even some people, the identity family is far inferior to the Dou family, and all of them are now rushing to try to pick up the ready-made leak of Dou Xiyin.

As usual, Dou Xiyin and Yang Yan can't be regarded as such people. These people are very dirty when they give them shoes. But now, these are the best choices of Dou Xiyin.

How ironic.

Dou Xiyin trembled with anger, Yang Yan also cried for several days, ran back to complain with his parents. Of course, Yang Fucheng distressed his eldest daughter. When the eldest daughter married, his official position was still low. He told Yang Yan that he chose the Dou family, who was very common in all aspects, while the younger daughter became the queen. The gap between the two daughters is too great. Therefore, Yang Fucheng has been very owed to his eldest daughter over the years. If he can marry his granddaughter to the second prince and consolidate the power of the Yang family, he can also make up for the eldest daughter ’s family. Yang Fucheng naturally is Happy to see it done.

However, Yang Fucheng did not expect that the Empress Dowager actually turned the corner and stabbed her family.

Mrs. Yang was crying all day long to get justice for her eldest daughter. Yang Fucheng was disturbed, and she was very annoyed by her mother-in-law. The mother-in-law's son is dead, and there is no blood under her knees. The Yang family continues to be rich for her, but this is how the queen mother returns them. Yang Fucheng is now the first assistant, the youngest daughter is the queen, and the second prince is also the heir to the queen ’s heirs. My mother-in-law could not intervene.

Yueyue generation, so far.

Yang Fucheng was angry, and the dissatisfaction over the years also appeared a little bit, gradually becoming an explosive trend. In the past years, the Empress Dowager has become more and more inspiring, and she only respects herself, relying on her support for Yang Fucheng, and unscrupulously supported Yang Shoufu to do things. She still confessed to her that she has great gratitude to the Yang family. If it were not for this time, Yang Fu Chengdu did not find out that he had been thinking about these things for so long.

But Queen Mother Yang is his sister after all, the highest-ranking Queen Mother in the harem. The emperor and Yang Fucheng ca n’t treat the Queen Mother Yang, what the Queen Mother said, they must obediently listen. Therefore, Yang Yan was crying at home and looking for death. Yang Fucheng could not do anything to change the situation except subsidizing his eldest daughter in private.

Yang Yan refused to take a break and ran to her mother's house every day, but Dou Xiyin's heart was cold.

At this moment, Dou Xiyin looked at the familiar and unfamiliar red wall and couldn't help being slightly trance, not knowing where he should go. Xu was because she stood for too long, and the people on the other side of the palace thought that there was no one around, so they talked pretentiously.

"How did the Second Prince suddenly go to Lingyuan Pavilion?"

The second prince? Dou Xiyin's ear moved, and he couldn't help holding his breath to listen carefully.

On the other side of the palace wall is a corridor. These two maidens Xu did not expect someone standing behind the wall to speak with care. I only heard another voice saying, "The second prince is not making a speech. Today, the Lantern Festival, the Holy Father is happy, and the feast of the princes. The second prince is drunk. Go and prepare some sober soup. "

"Wouldn't it mean that there was no one next to the second prince?" The voice at the beginning sighed, "The second prince is alone in Lingyuan Pavilion, let alone drunk, there is no one around, what can I do if something happens?" "

"What's the matter in the palace?" The other population was disappointed and suddenly lowered his voice. The **** said mysteriously, "Did you hear that the Queen Mother is going to choose a concubine for the second prince?"

"I know, it is said that the Queen Mother today called many young ladies into the palace, is it possible that the second princess will be among these people in the future?"

"It must be. We quickly went to the hall to serve, maybe we will be the next concubine of the second prince."

"But it doesn't mean that ... Miss Dou is the quasi-imperial concubine ..."

"Hey, you said her. She is a flower shelf now. You see that she is still beautiful, and she is full of majesty, but she can't say good things about her. This is the most beautiful time in her life. You look at her She still has to go downhill. After two years, I am afraid that even her livelihood will be a problem. Who will remember who she is then? She fell all the way, and she did not even have the qualification to bring shoes to the second princess after entering the palace. The princess still cares about her? "

"What you said is that she is not Miss Yang's serious lady after all. The Yang family is holding her because she is the second prince of the quasi-second prince. Now she is not, how long will she be offered to her? The Dou family alone is what she counts. "

"..."

The voice gradually went away. The two maidens walked away while talking. From beginning to end, Dou Xiyin hadn't even seen each other's faces, but was trembling with rage.

But how could they dare to say this to the two maids? But after Dou Xiyin was angry, he found out in despair that they were right.

Dou Xiyin's nails pinched into the palm of her hand unconsciously. She couldn't do this. She had to find a way to save herself. She must not fall into the situation of the court ladies.

Yongshou Palace.

Du Ruo entered the door quietly, attached to Cheng Yujin's ear, and whispered something. Cheng Yujin just nodded when he heard it, as if he didn't know anything.

She still smiled and hustle and bustle in the stands, all kinds of people under the stands, graceful and dignified posture, soft and gentle smile, is the crown prince who can not pick mistakes.

Halfway through the banquet, someone hurried in and whispered something to Queen Yang. Queen Yang's expression changed, and she couldn't take care of the scene, so she hurried away.

Of course, everyone on the stage saw that they did not take it seriously, only thinking that something happened in the palace suddenly, and Queen Yang went to deal with the palace affairs.

But after a while, a forty-year-old grandma entered the hall, stooped down and said something in the ear of Queen Mother Yang. Empress Yang's face suddenly became cold, and her expression was faintly angry. At this time, there was a young lady who was in front of Queen Mother Yang to make fun of her. She prepared a basket of curious words, but looking at the expression of Queen Mother Yang, she dared not say anything for a while.

Queen Mother Yang drooped her lips and stood up with her mother's help. With her movements, all the people in Yongshou Palace were quiet. Standing in front of the throne, Empress Yang ticked her lips without a smile, and said, "Ai's family is lacking, let's take a step first. Princess prince."

Cheng Yujin stepped forward and went on a blessing: "Children are here."

"The queen is not here. You are looking after the Lantern Festival banquet for a while. I have something to come back and ask the mourning family."

"Yes." Cheng Yujin lowered his head and said, "Children obey the purpose."

After the Queen Mother Yang finished speaking, she went out with her help, and everyone in the hall looked at the Queen Mother ’s back, and the needle fell quietly for a long time.

Cheng Yujin smiled and raised his hand, saying: "The Queen Mother and Queen Mother temporarily leave the seat for a while, and the husbands continue to feast."

The main hall followed Cheng Yujin's remarks before continuing to be lively. Although many of the husbands here picked up wine, they were quietly thinking about the anomalies of the Queen and the Queen Mother today.

At this moment, I don't know who discovered it first, and Yang Yan is gone.

The concubine's eyes swept around, and she did not see Yang Yan. The concubine felt itchy, and by the chance of toasting, quietly came to Cheng Yujin and asked, "Prince Princess, what's wrong with this, why both the queen and the queen mother left the table?"

"How do I know about the Queen Mother and the Queen's family?" Cheng Yujin said, picking up his own wine bottle, and gestured to the concubine, laughing, "Sister Concubine, please."

The concubine knew it, and drank the wine in a fun way without asking questions. And Cheng Yujin just made a look. He poured the cup and accepted the wine, not really drinking it in the mouth.

Cheng Yujin looked down at the sake in the glass, the wine was clear, and the swaying beams and pillars around him were reflected with gold powder depicting gold. Cheng Yujin put down the wine bottle and thought inadvertently that she still had a lot of things to do today, but could not be delayed by the wine.

Drunk is wrong.

On the afternoon of the Lantern Festival, the time passed when everyone was absent but pretended to be peaceful. Cheng Yujin has been staying in Yongshou Palace to preside over the overall situation, and his speech and manners are very appropriate. Everyone also suddenly found out that the prince was such a perfect hostess. She had no stage fright to host the overall situation, and there were some unexpected details that were handled better than the queen.

The crown prince did not fight for her head on weekdays, and everyone was accustomed to seeing the crown prince's manners as if it were the most beautiful and signature mascot of the royal family. But when the queen and empress dowager were not present, her abilities were not lost to anyone.

After going out, Queen Yang and Empress Yang did not return for an afternoon. Cheng Yujin smiled and smiled all the way, dignified and decent, as if he didn't notice anything happening in the palace. Until he returned to Ciqing Palace, Cheng Yujin condensed his smile and asked, "How about Your Highness?"

"His Royal Highness is still at the Qingqing Palace to accompany the feast, and has not returned."

No matter what the emperor does, he always carries Li Chengjing around him. These large banquets, Li Chengjing is bound to accompany the emperor. Although troublesome, the emperor's attitude can also be seen from these details. Cheng Yujin nodded, thinking she had waited for an afternoon, and it would be fine to wait a little longer. Cheng Yujin went to the clean room to bathe and wash. After he came out, he discovered that Li Chengjing had returned. He still had a slight amount of water vapor on his body and wanted to come and take a shower in another clean room.

Li Chengjing saw Cheng Yujin coming out and spread her hands to her. Cheng Yujin sat next to Li Chengjing and asked, "Your Highness, how is it?"

Li Chengjing had just taken a shower, his hair was slightly moist, and he was only wearing a tunic. There was a slender neck at the collar, and he could vaguely see a white and thin chest. Li Chengjing wrapped Cheng Yujin's hand in one hand, placed it on his lap, and nodded slightly: "It's done."

Cheng Yujin couldn't help raising his eyebrows, it seemed a bit eager, but he pressed back: "What happened outside?"

"The second brother accidentally got drunk and quietly went to Lingyuan Pavilion to sober up. Some eunuchs around him took some sober soup and some prepared hot water. No one stayed with his second brother. It was just a coincidence that happened to everyone. During the time when they were busy outside, Miss Dou strayed into Lingyuan Pavilion. The second brother was unconscious after falling asleep, and he drank wine, his blood was strong, and he ...

To Cheng Yujin, Li Chengjing did not say too much detail, but with these clips, Cheng Yujin has been able to concatenate what happened in the afternoon. Cheng Yujin turned around and said, "So in the afternoon, Queen Yang hurriedly left the seat to deal with Dou Xiyin and the second prince? Only the last thing couldn't be suppressed, so the Queen Mother Yang was disturbed?"

"Yes. Yang Shoufu also passed by. The emperor was not very happy when he heard the wind, but he didn't say anything. I always followed the emperor in the afternoon. I don't know exactly what happened to Ling Yuange."

Cheng Yujin nodded and said in a very serious way: "This is natural. After the Queen Mother and Queen Mother left the table, the concubine was ordered by the Queen Mother to host the overall situation in Yongshou Palace. She spent the whole afternoon splitting and lacking skills, and did not pay attention to Miss Dou's movement. This happened. No one wants to see this kind of thing, but Miss Dou was originally in love with the second prince, and the two are not guessing. Although it damages the royal reputation, it is also a beautiful thing for lovers to eventually become dependents. "

Li Chengjing didn't speak, raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at her and smiled. Cheng Yujin did not panic in such eyes, and gave him a casual look: "What are you laughing at?"

Li Chengjing shook his head and said, "It's nothing. It's just lamenting the princess's pride, so she won't be able to mess with the princess in the future."

Cheng Yujin snorted softly and said, "Your Highness has won the prize, which is not as good as your Highness's teaching."

The two of them pretended to express their innocence and integrity. Tomorrow, no one will know better than them tomorrow, but these two men are black and black, but they can still say "I don't know very well", "No one wants to see this happen. ".

After a while, Cheng Yujin asked, "Your Highness, what will the Yang family do after that?"

Li Chengjing didn't care about it, and said quickly: "That's the Yang family's business. Two Yangs can't be written in one stroke, the palm is the meat, and the back of the hand is the meat. Yang Fucheng will choose who is their own. What do we do with our resolution? "

Cheng Yujin nodded gently, knowing that Li Chengjing's purpose had been achieved, and it didn't matter who the second princess was in the end. Even if the second prince went to a banquet and was drunk, there wouldn't be any one beside him. Even if he couldn't be busy for a while, how could Dou Xiyin be so coincident, just when everyone went out, he happened to walk in?

More coincidences are not coincidences, but inevitable. Cheng Yujin and Li Chengjing one inside and the other outside, both quietly pushed. Cheng Yujin was responsible for instigating Dou Xiyin, and then sent her out of the inner palace. As for the Lingyuan Pavilion, Cheng Yujin could not get it.

But looking at the effect, Li Chengjing arranged very concisely and cleverly. Both of them have clear proof of absence, and they just pushed in secret, swaggered in, and picked up the clothes and the second prince had skin feelings, but Dou Xiyin himself. Once she was not dizzy or persecuted, what did she do with others?

Of course, Li Chengjing is not willing to watch the second prince form a powerful relative, but to put it bluntly, no matter how strong the power is, the second prince will certainly have some trouble in marrying another concubine, but it is only the case. An area of ​​Dou Xiyin is not worthy of Li Chengjing's special calculation.

What Li Chengjing really wants to do is to tear open a mouth in front of all the ministers and let the people see that the Yang family is not a monolithic one. The empress Yang and Yang Shoufu are born. As for Dou Xiyin, it's just an addition.

Li Chengjing pinched Cheng Yujin's finger and said in a pointed way: "The Yang family suddenly made a fortune, but the upbringing within the family has not kept up. Now it is just the granddaughter, and there will be more retribution from the Yang family in the future.

Cheng Yujin immediately thought of someone, and she also heard about it, so he asked tentatively, "Your Highness, are you talking about Yang Shoufu's grandson, Yang Xiaoyu?"

Yang Xiaoyu ... has a great reputation in the capital. He bullies men and women, eats, drinks and gambles. This generation of Yang family is the only one of his own, saying that it is Mrs. Yang's eyeballs and destiny. Dou Xiyin is only Yang Yan ’s daughter, and she can do the job of **** and putting on the prince, and Yang Xiaoyu is the only grandson of the Yang family, grandfather is the first assistant, the aunt and grandmother are the queen mother, the aunt is the queen, and the grandmother and mother are responsive to him You can also know what kind of person Yang Xiaoyu has grown into.

Yang Xiaoyu was so rampant that he dared to kick people in the street and beat people, and to mock the family members of the imperial court officials. Many people in Beijing have been angry with him, but Yang Shoufu and the Empress Dowager have taken over it.

Li Chengjing seemed to be a non-smile, saying, "That's the Yang family's business, I don't know."

In the past, the Yang family only covered the sky and could protect Yang Xiaoyu from the sky. However, Yang Gu eventually has a backlash, I only hope that the Yang family can keep covering the world with only one hand.
