"How much do you know about the Yanbei Palace?" Ren Yaoqi asked Dongsheng, looking at the sky outside the window.
In her previous life, she didn't know much about the Yanbei Palace, and she didn't deliberately inquire about it in this life, and what she knew was only what everyone knew.
However, Dongsheng was trained as Li Tianyou's personal servant. His master was Zheng Guoliang, the powerful follower of his grandfather, who was also regarded as the housekeeper of the Li family.
She used to think that Steward Zheng's voice was a little strange, but later she realized that Steward Zheng should have come from the palace and was a eunuch.
Li Tianyou's servant doesn't need to know too much about entertainment, but he must know how to help his master avoid disadvantages. So Dongsheng should know the situation of each family in Yunyang City very well.
"The late old Yanbei Wang Zhengfei was the second daughter of the first emperor. She was born by Zhang Guipin. Yunyao, the eldest daughter of Yunyao, was engaged, and at that time King Yanbei’s grandfather, Xiao Qishan, the fourth King of Yanbei, was still alive, and he asked for an edict to express his love to the late emperor.”
"After careful consideration, the first emperor allowed Xiao Yan to marry Yunyao, the daughter of Yun's patriarch, as his concubine at the same time the princess entered the Yanbei Palace, and promised that after Xiao Yan inherits the throne of Yanbei King If Yunyao has a son, she will be given the position of side concubine, so Xiao Yan's main concubine, Princess Changde, and side concubine Yunshi will enter the door one day apart."
"It's just that Princess Changde has only given birth to a daughter, Xiao Wei, since she entered Xiao's family. Mrs. Yuntai gave birth to the eldest son of the old Yanbei King Xiao Yan. After that, the princess gave birth to the old Yanbei King. The noble concubine of the Su family, the second son of the old prince, Xiao Heng, was born of this concubine Su, who was in poor health, and Xiao Heng passed away not long after she was born, and Xiao Heng was raised under the knee of Princess Changde since childhood."
As expected, Dongsheng knew the twists and turns of these aristocratic families very clearly, and he explained them in detail like a treasure trove.
"The fourth King of Yanbei, Xiao Qishan, lived to be in his sixties, so the old King of Yanbei was already thirty-five years old when he succeeded to the throne. At that time, there was a quarrel in the Yanbei Palace for the establishment of a son."
"Princess Changde wants to support her bastard son Xiao Heng, while the old Yanbei King is more concerned about the eldest son Xiao Yan. It is said that Princess Changde once wrote a secret letter to the capital without telling the old Yanbei King to ask the late emperor to make decisions for her."
"At that time, at the time when the first crown prince died of illness and the first emperor fell ill, and King Kang and King Rong were fighting for the heir most fiercely, the letter that the princess quietly sent to the capital was like a stone sinking into the sea. Old Yan Beiwang took Xiao Qishan's will as his last wish." You personally went to Beijing to ask for a decree for the eldest son. At that time, King Kang and King Rong, who supervised the country, were in a close battle. No one wanted to offend the Yanbei Palace at that time, so Xiao Yan became the eldest son. Two years later, The first emperor suddenly recovered from his illness, and King Kang and King Rong were punished for disobedience. Not long after, the old King Yanbei also died suddenly, and Xiao Yan succeeded him as King Yanbei, and asked his eldest son, Xiao Jingkang, to be his son."
"Because of the "rebellion between the two kings" between King Kang and King Rong, the first emperor had no energy to take care of Yanbei's affairs at the beginning after he recovered from his illness, so Xiao Yan succeeded to the throne and asked for the title of the eldest son. Wang Shizi entered the Imperial College in Beijing as a proton in essence. Therefore, Wang Shizi of Yanbei grew up in Beijing since he was a child, and was ordered by the former emperor to be married to Zhao Ying'e, the daughter of Princess Chang'an when he was young. I heard that this prince's article Very good at drawing and painting, but riding and shooting are useless.”
Ren Yaoqi has been listening silently, she knows some of the things Dongsheng said, and some she doesn't.
She could imagine the depth of the water in Yanbei Prince's Mansion, but hearing Dongsheng's details now, it's still a bit shocking.
"The current concubine of Yanbei Wang Xiao Yan is the niece of his biological mother Mrs. Yun Tai, Yun Chuxue, the eldest daughter of Yun Sheng, the current head of the Yun family, this princess gave birth to two sons and a daughter, the eldest son Xiao Jingkang in Beijing , the second son Xiao Jingxi, the princess Xiao Jinglin. Xiao Heng, the younger brother of King Yanbei, married his wife Su Shi, and gave birth to the third son Xiao Jingyue, the second miss Xiao Jingyuan, and several concubine sons and daughters. The only daughter of Princess Changde, Xiao Wei, married It was given to Wu Xiaohe, the current general soldier of Ningxia, who gave birth to a daughter."
Ren Yaoqi's heart moved: "What is the relationship between Yanbei King Xiao Yan and his younger brother Xiao Heng?"
Dongsheng thought for a while, and said truthfully: "From outsiders, they can still be regarded as brothers and sisters, but...you can understand from the relationship between their respective relatives, the Yun family and the Su family, that things are not as they appear on the surface. Simple. The Yun family and the Su family have shaken hands and made peace on the surface since Xiao Qishan became the king of Yanbei, and they are like a family. In fact, the two families still have constant disputes behind the scenes. The Su family holds several large horse farms in the northwest. All the horses of the Yanbei army cavalry are supplied by the horse farm in the northwest of the Su family. The Yun family is an old family, and the background is not comparable to the Su family, but it is not comparable to the Su family in terms of management. The two families have been fighting for the past two years. Several large salt fields near Gyeongju caused a lot of trouble to King Yanbei."
Northwest Racecourse... Ningxia General Soldier... The Dangxiang clan competing with Da Zhou for the racecourse... The conflict between the Yun family and the Xiao family, the old concubine and Yanbei King...
Ren Yaoqi felt that there was a faint thread linking what she knew in her previous life with what Dongsheng said just now, and a ray of dawn lit up in front of her eyes...
As soon as the imperial court of the last generation ordered the reduction of the Yanbei Army, there was a dispute over the Dangxiang racecourse in the northwest, and then the Yanbei army was divided, and part of it was included in Ningxia General Soldier Wu Xiaohe's subordinates to help him fight against the Dangxiang clan.
She originally thought that this was King Yanbei's strategy to preserve his strength.
But now it seems that Wu Xiaohe is the son-in-law of the old concubine, Princess Changde. Could he really be of one mind with King Yanbei? Was King Yanbei really willing to distribute his army to his brother-in-law? Maybe not? It looks more like the lesser of two evils.
Although later, because of the intervention of Xiao Jingxi, the second son of King Yanbei, most of the Yanbei army was reorganized, and their vitality was not damaged, but they still suffered losses after all.
And Zeng Teng's ability to quickly secure his position as the General Army of Ningxia back then was also related to his successful instigation of a group of middle- and lower-level generals of the Yanbei Army who had originally held a wait-and-see attitude before Xiao Jingxi was incorporated back into the Yanbei Army. Those few people finally became the capital for his promotion.
Therefore, if he could find a way to prevent the army of Yanbei Palace from entering Ningxia, it would also cut off Zeng Yu's shortcut to promotion.
It is undeniable that Ren Yaoqi hated the Zeng family, Zeng Yu and Zeng Kui.
Even though those things hadn't happened in this life, she still felt an uncontrollable hatred when she thought of the Zeng family.
At this time, a few more people came in from the yard, Xia Sheng, Xiangqin, and Mulberry led Ren Yaohua's maid in.
Turnip and the others were in a terrible state of distress, and two of the servant girls' faces were still covered with tears, and they were still sobbing when they entered the yard, which showed that they had suffered a lot before.
When they saw Ren Yaohua standing under the eaves, they all swarmed over, complaining about their grievances, and the small yard immediately became noisy.
Or turnip couldn't stand it anymore, and reprimanded them.
Ren Yaoqi only heard Ren Yaohua's cold voice resounding in the yard: "I will give you an explanation!"
Li Tianyou, who was watching the excitement, rolled his eyes, and led Xia Sheng into the room with his hands behind his back.
Ren Yaoqi's quiet voice sounded word by word in the room: "There is a way, but you need to take risks. Maybe everyone has to take risks, are you willing to do it?"
Dong Sheng was taken aback for a moment, and asked hesitantly: "Who are you referring to, Miss Biao? Master, are they going to take risks too?"
Ren Yaoqi looked at Dongsheng calmly: "Do you think uncle is not implicated now? Instead of waiting for disaster to come, it's better to fight back."
The situation of Xian Wang Li Gan's family in Yanbei was already very embarrassing.
Li Gan's biological mother, Wan Guifei, was the favorite concubine of the former emperor. She was the daughter of a commoner brought back from outside the palace by the former emperor in the early years. She gave birth to Li Gan within six months after entering the palace.
So although the first emperor recognized Li Gan as the prince, after the death of the first emperor, Li Gan's birth became his stain.
There are hidden rumors in Beijing that Concubine Wan Gui was actually a singer before entering the palace, and she had a secret relationship with someone long ago. Later, although she was lucky to be born of the late emperor, she was not actually pregnant with the late emperor's seed. It's just that Concubine Wangui was so clever that the former emperor recognized this cheap son and named him King Xian.
The former emperor was dead, and there was no way to confirm this rumor, but when discussing the establishment of a new emperor, most of the courtiers still chose to support the son of Concubine Yan, who was only a baby at that time.
In desperation, Concubine Wan acted preemptively, taking out the last imperial edict to demote her own son, King Xian, to a commoner, and exiled him to Yanbei where the Yan family could not intervene, so that his children and grandchildren would never be allowed to enter Beijing.
On the day Xianwang's family arrived in Yanbei, Concubine Wan Guifei committed suicide by drinking dove poison.
In fact, Xianwang's family has taken refuge in the Yanbei Palace for these years. Otherwise, it is impossible for him to live safely to this day. Although useless, but still alive after all.
When Mr. Pei talked about this palace secret with Ren Yaoqi, he also sighed that Concubine Wan Gui back then was indeed a character.
Not only is she beautiful and versatile, but she is also flexible, decisive and ruthless, and she can afford to lose.
It's a pity that after all, the beauty is unlucky.
Ren Yaoqi had never met this great-grandmother, but when she was in the capital, she had seen some portraits of Concubine Wan Gui and poems written for her by the late kings that were secretly passed down in the hands of scholars.
Mr. Pei once smiled. The reason why he asked Lu Dexin for her was because when he saw her for the first time, he thought she looked like the woman in a painting in his collection.
At first she thought he was joking, but after seeing the painting, she realized that Mr. Pei was talking about her great-grandmother, Concubine Wan.
And it was at that time that she understood why Mr. Pei only said a few words to Lu Dexin, and Lu Dexin gave her away.
Lu Dexin was a military supervisor sent by the imperial court to Ningxia, and the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty always liked to use close servants as supervisors. Lu Dexin was actually an eunuch, and all his favors came from his superior master.
And his master, Empress Dowager Yan, was the deadly rival of Concubine Wan Gui, and Ren Yaoqi's similar appearance to Concubine Wan Gui would bring him trouble.
At that time, she was actually very grateful for her face.
Because of their physical disabilities, many eunuchs were somewhat paranoid about matters between men and women. Although they are impotent in sexual affairs, they still like to marry wives and concubines. Ren Yaoqi was very reluctant to recall the unbearable days when she fell into Lu De's novice hands.
Dong Sheng was overwhelmed by Ren Yaoqi's indifferent voice that seemed to see through the world.
Those who follow King Xian all understand the situation of King Xian's lineage in Yanbei like walking on thin ice. Not only do they have to worry about whether the Yan family in the capital will suddenly send someone to assassinate them, but they also worry that one day the Yanbei Palace will hand them over to the Yan family or even quietly dispose of them instead of the Yan family.
As long as Queen Mother Yan and her son are still in power, as long as the Yan family still controls the government, his masters will never have a moment of real peace of mind.
"What should my subordinate do, Miss Biao, but please give some advice." Dong Sheng gritted his teeth and asked respectfully.
...
When Ren Yaohua sent someone in to let Ren Yaoqi out, Ren Yaoqi had already made it clear to Dongsheng.
Dongsheng stood there dumbfounded for a while without moving, his face was as pale as paper, and the maid who walked in was startled, thinking that Miss Fifth had just taught Dongsheng a lesson.
Ren Yaoqi sighed softly, and said before going out, "Think about it carefully, you can also discuss it with Xia Sheng and the others, and send someone to deliver a letter to me if there is anything to do."
Seeing that Ren Yaoqi had come out, Ren Yaohua frowned and said, "Why is it taking so long? It's getting late, and people are back, let's go back."
Ren Yaoqi also explained what should be explained, so she nodded and said yes.
However, Ren Yaohua did not move immediately, and looked behind Ren Yaoqi, as if she wanted to wait for Dongsheng to come out.
Ren Yaoqi smiled and said: "I have already taught him a lesson, he will never dare again, and I also told him to do some things, why don't you let it go this time?"
Ren Yaohua was a little dissatisfied: "What needs him to do? Is there no one in our Ren family?"
Ren Yaoqi had no choice but to beg softly: "Third Sister, just treat it as a favor I owe you? When I just taught him a lesson, I already said that I would intercede with you for him."
At this time Dongsheng came out from the room, his face was still very ugly, Ren Yaohua saw it and believed what Ren Yaoqi had taught him.
Ren Yaoqi hurriedly said again: "Besides, it's not easy for us to get past our grandfathers, grandmothers and uncles who punished the Li family. After all, our surname is Ren. If others find out, we may make irresponsible remarks. As for those around me today The maids and mothers-in-law will reward each of them with a tael of shocking money."
Speaking of which, Ren Yaoqi approached again, and whispered, "Now we are still outside with our auntie, so it is not easy to cause trouble. If you want to teach him a lesson, there will be more opportunities in the future, so don't be in a hurry."
Only then did Ren Yaohua snort softly, turn around and leave.
Ren Yaoqi took a look at Dongsheng, and followed Ren Yaohua out slowly.
