His Majesty once married me

In the 23rd year of Kaiyuan, early summer.

When he heard the news that King Yi had killed his wife, Qi Yulin was stunned for a while.

Her second brother, who is like dough, can kill people?

Don't take the blame for someone else, right?

Qi Yulin thought for a while, then turned to look at Pan Ziqin who was by her side, "Should I pay attention to this matter?"

"Do you need to think about it?" Pan Ziqin rolled her eyes back, and then asked Misang who brought the news, "Where is King Yi now?"

"Prince Yi's Mansion." Mi Sang replied, "His Royal Highness Yi Wang entered the palace to plead guilty, but was sent back to the mansion to be grounded by His Majesty. I don't know exactly what happened. I only know that it has something to do with the male favorite in his mansion."

"Your family is really..." Pan Ziqin curled her lips and glanced at Qi Yulin again.

There have been rumors about Yi Wang's masculinity, but Yi Wang has a wife, a concubine, a son, and a daughter, so everyone didn't take this matter to heart.

Qi Yulin didn't take Pan Ziqin's ridicule to heart either, and after thinking about it, he ordered: "Get someone to prepare, I will go to Yiwang Mansion myself."

An hour later, Qi Yulin appeared at the gate of Prince Yi's Mansion with his maid and servants.

At this time, Prince Yi’s Mansion was surrounded by the Imperial Army, but His Majesty the Emperor only prohibited King Yi from leaving the mansion, and did not prohibit outsiders from visiting inside. Qi Yulin negotiated with the General of the Imperial Army who was in charge of guarding the place and entered smoothly. Met King Yi Qi Yuming.

At this time, Qi Yuming was no longer suave and suave as before, not to mention disheveled hair and messy clothes, and he was like a living dead, slumped in a corner of the room, completely lifeless.

Seeing Qi Yulin come in, Qi Yuming just glanced at her, and then continued to wait for her death as if she didn't exist.

Qi Yulin also didn't speak, stood at the door of the room, looked at Qi Yulin quietly for a while, and then said: "When I was whipped by my concubine every day, I was never like you are now... so lifeless."

Hearing what Qi Yulin said, Qi Yuming finally turned around and gave her a positive face.

"What exactly do you want to say?" Qi Yuming asked indifferently.

"I don't want to say anything." Qi Yulin replied blankly, "I learned that something happened to you, and people around me persuaded me to come and have a look, so I came here."

"...Thank you." Qi Yuming twitched the corners of his mouth and squeezed out a slightly ironic wry smile.

Qi Yulin tilted her head, "Thank me for what?"

"What do you think should be thanked, then thank you." Qi Yuming turned his head back to the original direction.

"Okay then, I accept your thanks." Qi Yulin never quite understood the brain circuit of this second emperor brother, but the second emperor brother seemed to treat her the same way. Come on, get ready to leave.

She just came here to take a look. After reading it, she should leave naturally.

But before the maid beside him lifted the beaded curtain at the door, a burly figure rushed through the beaded curtain from the other side, then knocked away the maid behind the curtain, and entered the room at lightning speed.

"Second, what the hell have you done so stupid..."

The person who rushed in was King Hong Qi Yuche. He was about to curse, but found that Princess Jia Qi Yulin was also in the room. He quickly swallowed half of what he had said, and turned to stare at Qi Yulin.

"Why are you here?"

"Probably the same reason as you are here?" Qi Yulin replied.

Qi Yuche was choked, and stared, but he didn't want to quarrel with Qi Yulin, so he could only wave his fist, and kicked out all the maids and servants Qi Yulin brought, leaving only three brothers and sisters in the room.

"If the big brother wants to have a private conversation with the second brother, I can leave." Qi Yulin reminded, "I was planning to leave."

"Stay, don't leave!" Qi Yuche ordered viciously.

Qi Yulin frowned, looked at Qi Yuche a few times inexplicably, but did not move in the end.

Evening out his sister, Qi Yuche quickly walked up to Qi Yuming, picked him up from the ground, and asked angrily: "You idiot, you kill your wife as soon as you kill your wife, why do you want to enter the palace and confess to the emperor, and you are still in front of me?" The face of so many ministers? There are so many people in the house, who can you find to take the blame? Don’t tell me, there is not even anyone around you who is willing to take the blame for you!"

"The wrong things I did should be borne by me in the first place, why bother to hurt the innocent?" Qi Yuming replied indifferently, "Didn't the emperor often say that one person does one thing and one person does it?"

"I, I said so, that's right! But, you, wouldn't you find someone who is not innocent to bear the burden?" Qi Yulin tried hard to maintain a tough posture, "For example, the subordinate of that bastard woman Dong ..."

"Excuse me." Qi Yulin raised his hand and said blankly, "Is it meaningful to say this now?"

"No." Qi Yuming smiled knowingly, and said to the elder brother in front of him, "If brother Huang still has any brotherhood towards me, please take good care of my children. As for me, I just need to wait for my death quietly. "

"I can't die." Before Qi Yuche could answer, Qi Yulin spoke again, "You are killing your wife, not your father and king. No matter what, it is impossible to convict you of a death penalty. At most, you will be imprisoned and exiled."

Qi Yulin's words made Qi Yuming stunned on the spot, and Qi Yuche also recalled it, and looked at the half-brother suspiciously, "You don't think that if you kill a courtier, you will pay for her life? We are the prince, the emperor's son." son!"

"But……"

"No but!" Qi Yuche rolled his eyes, and threw Qi Yuming to the ground with hatred, "She just has a grandpa who was a bachelor, can she compare with us?! Believe it or not, her family If you dare to let her pay for her life, father will be able to destroy their nine clans!"

Qi Yuming sat on the ground in a daze, and seemed a little dazed for a while.

Qi Yuche became more and more annoyed, "You were taught to be stupid by the Chen family!"

Qi Yulin who was on the side interrupted again, "I said, before discussing the consequences, can you explain clearly what is going on?"

"That's right!" Qi Yuche nodded, "You have endured that woman for so long, why can't you bear it all of a sudden today?"

"She...she killed Lanxiu." Qi Yuming bit his lips, and his eyes were watery.

Lanxiu was assigned by His Majesty the emperor to protect Qi Yuming in Prince Yi's Mansion. Both Qi Yuche and Qi Yulin had seen each other before, but before today, even though Lanxiu and Qi Yuming were always inseparable, they never thought of it as a male favorite.

As for the reason, Lanxiu is too rough, with a thick back and thick hair, at first glance he looks like a bear walking upright, far from the image of a male pet in the hearts of the world.

Qi Yuming has never revealed his relationship with Lanxiu in front of others, and he has raised a few handsome young men who are more in line with the image of male favorites in the mansion to divert attention from inside and outside the palace.

Concubine Yi Dong was also confused by Qi Yuming's arrangement, thinking that he just liked the service of these handsome boys—Qi Yuming just enjoyed the company of these boys and never let them sleep, so Dong didn't treat these boys like playthings. Take it to heart and concentrate on competing with those concubines who gave birth to children in the mansion.

Until a few days ago, Qi Yuming fell in love for a while, and had a good deed with Lanxiu in the study, but Dong's eyeliner listened to the corner, and quickly reported it to Dong, causing Dong to come to catch the adulterer, and finally saw himself The husband and wife of the woman lay under another man's body, and she was so happy that she wanted to [immortal] want to [death].

Dong became furious on the spot and wanted to order someone to drag Lanxiu out and beat her to death.

Qi Yuming naturally wouldn't let her do this, and immediately called the guards, dragged Mrs. Dong and a group of maidservants brought by her out of the study, and threw them back to their yard.

Qi Yuming is still confident in the management and control of his mansion, and he doesn't think that Mrs. Dong can do anything to Lanxiu, but out of safety considerations, and because she doesn't want to over-irritate Mrs. Dong, she is going to let Lanxiu leave the capital and go outside to avoid the wind head.

It's just that Lanxiu has the official position of imperial guard, so it's not so easy to leave Beijing.

Qi Yuming was racking his brains thinking about changing Lanxiu's job, but unexpectedly, Mrs. Dong quietly entered the palace and reported the matter to Concubine Chen.

Concubine Chen was furious, and immediately summoned Qi Yuming into the palace, separated Qi Yuming and Lanxiu by virtue of the rule that imperial guards could not enter the harem without permission, and while scolding her son, ordered someone to arrest Lanxiu and use A glass of poisoned wine ended Lanxiu's life.

Concubine Chen did not tell Qi Yuming about this, but Mrs. Dong is not one who can keep a secret.

Concubine Chen poisoned people to death, and Dong ordered someone to steal Lanxiu's body, cut off his head, put it in a box, and sent it to Qi Yuming.

Qi Yuming was worried about Lanxiu's disappearance at that time, when he suddenly saw Lanxiu's head, he almost went crazy.

Knowing that Lanxiu's head was sent by someone sent by Dong Shi, Qi Yuming immediately picked up his sword, rushed in front of Dong Shi, and asked her what happened.

Mrs. Dong didn't think that Qi Yuming dared to hurt herself at all, so she proudly told about Concubine Chen poisoning Lanxiu to death.

But this incident became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

It is impossible for Qi Yuming to find his mother and concubine to vent his anger, all the hatred can only be vented on Dong Shi——

When Qi Yuming came to his senses, Mrs. Dong was already scattered on the ground like mud, her eyes were staring, and she was dying.

After hearing Qi Yuming finish speaking, Qi Yuche frowned first, "The injustice has its head, the debt has its owner, the one killed by Concubine Chen, don't you take revenge on Concubine Chen, and use your own wife to vent your anger?"

"Revenge on concubine mother? How? Can I still let concubine mother pay for Lanxiu's life?!" Qi Yuming was annoyed by Qi Yuche's words.

"Why not?" Qi Yuche asked back, "Aren't you already ready to die? What if you add another charge of killing your mother? In the end, you are still incapable, and you can't even protect the one you love!"

"...I am not the father after all." Qi Yuming lowered his eyelids and clenched his fists.

Qi Yuming had seen how the emperor's husband beat the queen mother violently in public, but the father not only did not care about the crime of the emperor's husband, but instead put the queen mother under house arrest, making this matter invisible.

Qi Yuche also sighed a little because of Qi Yuming's words.

Although Qi Yuche never had the chance to witness the "violence" of the [-]-year-old imperial husband, he knew that the man was not out of favor and demoted like the outside world thought.There were even rumors in the palace that the man had never left the capital, and that he would appear in the Summer Palace every now and then to have a quiet tryst with His Majesty the Emperor.Ten years ago, when the father was touring the world, that person also appeared in the team and accompanied the father.

Although the above are just speculations, just look at the eunuch Pang Zhongpang who served the man and is still leisurely looking at the courtyard in the summer palace. No one dares to insult and offend him, so you know how the man is in the emperor's heart a status.

The two brothers fell silent because they were thinking about it, but Qi Yulin at the side tilted his head, interrupting the silence in the room.

"I think the second brother doesn't need to avenge that man anymore."

"what?"

Both Qi Yuche and Qi Yuming looked over suspiciously.

"Concubine Chen's mother has crossed the line." Qi Yulin explained, "She stepped on the bottom line in Father's heart."

"What do you mean exactly?" Qi Yuche asked, "Explain more clearly!"

"How do you know?" Qi Yulin sighed helplessly, "The person who was poisoned to death by Concubine Chen was the imperial guard—father's imperial guard! She killed the emperor's man without father's permission! What do you think the father will do?"

Qi Yuche seemed to understand, but Qi Yuming turned pale all of a sudden.

"Mother..."

"Prepare for Concubine Chen's funeral!" Qi Yulin finished speaking bluntly, "You are at most imprisoned and exiled, but she wants to pay for that person's life! If she doesn't die, the other guards will be chilled, father The emperor will not feel at ease!"

Qi Yuche also understood, gave Qi Yuming a sympathetic look, opened his mouth, but made another cut.

"The Chen family... I'm afraid they will also be implicated." Qi Yuche said, "When Concubine Sun was thrown into Qiu Wuting, the Sun family was in bad luck, and they have not been able to recover until now. What happened to Concubine Chen this time is even worse. Big, the Chen family...the Chen family has been a little too noisy these past few years..."

Qi Yuche didn't have the nerve to continue.

Before today, Qi Yuming was still the one with the highest voice for succession.

Although a third prince with a better background, a better person, and more admired by the officials was killed in the middle, he couldn't stand the younger brother's life. In the 19th year of Kaiyuan, he fell into the ice hole in the imperial garden and died.

Although everyone is wondering whether the third prince made a mistake or was killed, he is dead if he is dead, and it is impossible to be resurrected. Qi Yuche only knows that he did not do this, and it seems that it was not the second child and two younger sisters. They didn't develop the bad habit of playing tricks behind their backs. Those who could do this kind of thing were the group of younger siblings born in the fifth year of Kaiyuan and their mother and concubine.

But affected by this incident, Qi Yuming became the big one who pulled out the big ones, and Qi Yuming's mother family, the Chen family, also took advantage of the wind, and became more and more powerful every year, no longer the low-key and forbearing in the early years.

Of course, this was only before today.

After today, Qi Yuming can only wave goodbye to the throne.

Not just for killing his wife.

The killing of his wife only affected his reputation. What really caused him to be out of the competition was that he was too stupid in handling this matter, and it was so stupid that his father would definitely not be able to bear it.

As such...

Qi Yuche was taken aback for a moment, and blurted out in shock, "Oh no, if you and I can't be the crown prince, then this position...wouldn't it be cheaper for Xiaosi or Xiaowu?!"

Qi Yuming was taken aback by Qi Yuche's call, "Brother Emperor...why did you...you...but what did you do?"

"I have already made it clear to my father more than ten years ago that if becoming a crown prince means accepting concubines and marrying a bunch of women, then I absolutely don't want the throne." Qi Yuche replied, "You didn't notice, I was originally going to train in the Northwest Army, but then it was canceled suddenly? In the past few years, my father has not even allowed me to touch the military power, and he has completely freed me!"

Qi Yuming was speechless for a while.

But apart from being speechless, Qi Yuming understood why Qi Yuche yelled that it was terrible.

No matter how noisy and clamorous the supporters behind them are, there is no deep hatred between him and Qi Yuche. No matter how displeased each other is, it is just displeasing, no matter which of the two of them is Conferring the crown prince, ascending the throne and proclaiming the emperor will not kill the loser.

But if the fourth or fifth prince takes the throne...

Qi Yuming immediately shook his head, removed this image from his mind, took a deep breath, and asked Qi Yuche: "Is the emperor really not interested in the throne? Even now, I am no longer destined for the throne, and the emperor still doesn't want to go Fight for a fight?"

"I can't fight anymore, and I don't want to fight anymore." Qi Yuche shook his head, "Besides, there are more people holding back on my side than yours. If I want to fight, the only way is to kill all of you brothers. Including you who made a big mistake—do you want me to do this?"

"Then..." Qi Yuming paused, then turned his head to Qi Yulin who was aside, "Second sister, let's try it!"

"What?!" Before Qi Yulin could respond, Qi Yuche's eyes widened, "Second, what are you talking about, I seem to be hallucinating!"

"I said, push the second younger sister to be the empress!" Qi Yuming said firmly.

"Have you lost your mind?!" Qi Yuche was dumbfounded.

"I am sober, unprecedentedly sober." Qi Yuming said with certainty, "I know that the second younger sister is a woman, but other than that, she is the most suitable candidate for the crown prince, more suitable than you and me, and better than Xiaosi and Xiaowu. Appropriate! If you want to have actual results, you need to have a solid foundation, and you have to be favored by the emperor, you are willing to delegate power to her and let her do what a man does!"

"But……"

"The more important point." Qi Yuming stared at the expressionless Qi Yulin, and said word by word, "She also wants to sit in that position."

"nonsense……"

"Second Brother, did you see it?" Before Qi Yuche could say anything else, Qi Yulin tilted his head and admitted Qi Yuming's guess, "Am I being too obvious?"

"It's not obvious or not, but whether you can think of it." Qi Yuming said, "Everyone thinks that the second sister is a woman and has nothing to do with the throne. Naturally, no matter what the second sister does, she won't think about it. But once it is like I am today Thinking of it like this, the various arrangements that the second younger sister planned for her are clearly revealed."

"Indeed." Qi Yulin sighed, "There are not many stupid people in this world, it's just that everyone likes to be blinded by a leaf. The second brother took down that leaf today, so he can see everything clearly..."

"Stop!" Qi Yuche raised his hands and made a cross motion, "What are you talking about, second sister, you... do you really want to compete for that position?!"

"Why not?" Qi Yulin asked back, "Didn't Yufu say that if the brothers don't live up to their expectations, then we can only let the sisters shoulder the burden—why, Brother Dahuang doesn't want me to sit in that position? "

"I……"

Qi Yuche opened his mouth, and couldn't help imagining what it would be like if Qi Yulin sat on the throne, and what it would be like if the fourth or fifth prince sat on the throne...

Soon, Qi Yuche also shook his head like Qi Yuming, trying to shake the latter part of his conjecture out of his mind.

The scene was so terrifying that Qi Yuche didn't even want to think about it, and changed his words decisively: "I also think the second sister is very good!"

Compared with those two ruthless wolf cubs, the gloomy second sister is simply a bodhisattva!

"Since Brother Huang also thinks that Second Sister is better, let's put in some effort!" Qi Yuming said, "I also have some available manpower, as long as Second Sister..."

"Second Brother." Qi Yulin sighed softly, "Don't negotiate terms with me."

Qi Yuming's face froze.

However, Qi Yulin continued on his own: "I don't need your help, nor do I need the connections and power in your hands—what you have is meaningless to me now."

"What kind of charades are you playing?" Qi Yuche frowned and interjected displeasedly.

"Brother Second Emperor probably wants me to help him save Concubine Chen's life." Qi Yulin said, "But I can't do that."

"Even if it's just relegated to Qiuwu Court..."

"Impossible." Qi Yulin shook his head, "If the second brother hadn't gone to the Qiankun Palace to confess that he killed his wife, there is still room for retribution, but the second brother just did that, and put a piece of paper that shouldn't have been seen in the light of day. In this way, the emperor can only deal with it impartially, investigate the whole matter clearly, and give an explanation to all officials and the world, and the matter of Chen Mufei poisoning the guards will naturally be exposed."

"Is there no way to save Concubine Mu?" Qi Yuming clenched his fists and beat the ground angrily.

"Brother Erhuang, do you have a way to save the imperial guard Lan?" Qi Yulin asked back, "I mean, if the imperial guard Lan is still alive, but Concubine Chen wants to kill him in front of you, will you have a way to save him?" Get him down?"

"I……"

"Probably not." Qi Yulin didn't wait for Qi Yuming's reply, and continued on his own, "In the heart of the Second Emperor Brother, the Lan Imperial Guard is certainly more important than the Dong family, but compared with Chen Mufei, it is insignificant. .”

Qi Yuming pursed his lips and clenched his fists, but he was speechless in the end.

Seeing him like this, Qi Yulin sighed, and took back the rest of the unfinished words.

She didn't want to ridicule Qi Yuming, she just wanted to remind Qi Yuming that in the heart of the emperor, Concubine Chen's mother is the insignificant person, and her value is far less than that of a guard.

But seeing Qi Yuming's reaction, Qi Yulin knew that even if she said it, he would not understand.

"As for the fight for the reserve, I will do my best." Qi Yulin changed his voice, "If the two imperial brothers want to help me, please don't interfere with this matter. Just sit on the sidelines and don't interfere."

You guys are only going to be a disservice!

Qi Yulin has no doubts about the sincerity of these two brothers, but he is full of doubts about their abilities, and he is even more unwilling to change the layout he has already started because of their unreliable help.

After finishing speaking, Qi Yulin gave a deep salute to the two elder brothers and said goodbye.

For the throne, Qi Yulin is not determined to win.

Qi Yulin is very clear that what she really wants is the power corresponding to that position, and position and power are not inseparable.

Therefore, as long as he can hold power, Qi Yulin doesn't have to sit in that position.

Supporting a young and weak prince and grandson, or hiding behind the scenes and being the one who strategizes are all acceptable results for Qi Yulin.

But if there is an opportunity to combine position and power, Qi Yulin will not give up either.

But right now, the opportunity was presented to him.

While thinking, Qi Yulin boarded the carriage with the help of the maidservant.

But as soon as she took a seat in the carriage, the half-closed door was pulled open again, and King Hong Qi Yuche rushed in.

"Second sister give me a ride." Qi Yuche closed the car door and isolated the stunned maidservants from the car.

Qi Yulin twitched the corners of his mouth, "I want to enter the palace, so does Brother Dahuang also want to go?"

"Uh..." Qi Yuche was stunned, apparently not expecting Qi Yulin to give such an answer.

Qi Yulin sighed, "Just speak up if you have something to say, Big Brother."

"It's nothing." Qi Yuche scratched his head, "I just want to make sure that you really... really have that kind of thought?"

"Yes!" Qi Yulin admitted frankly.

"Since when..."

"Brother Emperor." Qi Yulin raised the corners of his mouth in a rare way, "Did you forget that I grew up as a boy before the age of five?"

"Ah?" Qi Yuche was dumbfounded again.

"If the royal father hadn't exposed my identity, I would still be the third prince!" Qi Yulin continued meaningfully.

Qi Yuche was dumbfounded, then blurted out and asked: "You won't always hate that imperial husband?"

"Brother Dahuang thinks too much." Qi Yulin put away his smile and categorically denied it.

How could she hate that man?

If that person hadn't exposed her identity, she would have been killed by the concubine mother long ago.

If it wasn't because that person made her identity clear, how could she get rid of the big handle of gender and participate in the fight for reserves without any scruples?

Even, if it wasn't for that person's proposal, the emperor would not let them, the emperors and daughters, learn the knowledge and talents that princes can learn, let alone allow them to participate in politics and taste the taste of power.

She can have what she is today, all thanks to that person.

hatred?

It's too late to be grateful!

Seeing that Qi Yulin's expression didn't seem fake, Qi Yuche heaved a sigh of relief, "You don't want to take revenge on that person, that person...too evil..."

"Don't worry, big brother." Qi Yulin said calmly, "I know what I can do and what I can't do, and I'm definitely more sober than you and second brother."

"At times like this, don't make fun of us two brothers and sisters." Qi Yuche glared at Qi Yulin angrily, but immediately said seriously, "Think about it, Xiao Si and Xiao Wu are not like me and Lao Lao. The second one is stupid and straightforward, they... are cruel, black-handed, and can do anything."

"The two of them are nothing to worry about." Qi Yulin remained indifferent, "Worrying about them, it means that Brother Da Huang still hasn't seen the situation clearly, let alone understand Father Huang's thoughts."

"what?"

"Think about how we were taught by the emperor when we were young, and think about how many of them have had the same opportunity. The emperor should understand their position in the heart of the emperor."

The four brothers and sisters in the top four have been studying and attending classes in the Qiankun Palace since they were young, and they have gained positions in the Great Court Assembly early on. They also receive personal guidance from His Majesty the Emperor once a month, until the four brothers and sisters leave the palace and get married. Guidance was discontinued.

However, the batch of princes and princesses who were born in the fifth year of Kaiyuan did not receive such treatment. They studied in the Wanchun Palace in the south of Xuanyuan Palace, and they never ate Xiaozao until they were fourteen years old. Under the reminder, I was able to attend the Great Court Meeting.

But this only shows that the emperor doesn't value those young princes. What really made Qi Yulin sure that the fourth and fifth princes were nothing to worry about was the news from Wei Man——

The third prince was killed by the joint efforts of the fourth and fifth princes, and Jin Daowei had already found out the matter and reported it to His Majesty.

Eunuch Wei, who had listened to the Golden Knife Guard's report with the emperor, revealed the matter to his nephew Wei Man, and Wei Man also told Qi Yulin the matter knowingly.

As soon as Qi Yulin heard about this, he knew that it was hard to say whether the two of them would be able to die, not to mention competing for savings!

They can kill their brothers, just as they can force the palace to kill their fathers, and they have murderous intentions for His Majesty the Emperor.

With the disposition of their father, how could they allow such a son to grow up and become a threat to himself?

The reason why he forbears and does not say anything is that the father doesn't want to have any more children, so he has to keep them to balance the situation of fighting for reserves.

As long as the candidate for the crown prince is determined, the two of them will be useless, and the emperor will kick them away and cut off their overstretched arms and legs without others doing anything.

But these things cannot be shared with a big mouth like Qi Yuche.

Qi Yulin could only insinuate, telling him not to do bad things with good intentions and destroy the existing good situation.

Sure enough, when Qi Yulin mentioned this, Qi Yuche immediately smiled and turned his attention away.

"Of course, they can't compare with us!" Qi Yuche laughed triumphantly, "We were born in the hidden residence, and we are the lucky stars of our father!"

"Yes, so, big brother, don't worry too much, just watch the show with peace of mind." After speaking, Qi Yulin opened the car door and pushed Qi Yuche down.

Just as Qi Yulin told Qi Yuche, after leaving Prince Yi's Mansion, she went directly to the palace.

Princes and princesses like her can directly enter the palace without submitting any written requests, but the entourage will be subject to some restrictions, at most four people, and they can only be maids and servants assigned to them by the Inner Court Department, including forbidden Others including Wei could only wait outside the palace gate.

After entering the palace, Qi Yulin went directly to Qiankun Hall.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of Qiankun Hall, Qi Yulin found a woman kneeling there.

Taking a closer look, it was Princess Bao Qi Yulu.

——No wonder I didn't see her in Prince Yi's Mansion!

Qi Yulin suddenly realized, walked to Qi Yulu's side, and bowed to her.

Qi Yulu didn't see Qi Yulin salute, and felt a shadow around her, so she raised her head and saw Qi Yulin in her eyes.

"You... why are you here too?" Qi Yulu was taken aback.

"There are some things that I need to report to my father." Qi Yulin replied.

"You don't know Second Emperor Brother..."

"I know." Qi Yulin interrupted, "But this matter is not something that you and I can intervene—"

"His Royal Highness Princess Jia!" Before Qi Yulin finished speaking, Eunuch Wei ran down the steps of Qiankun Hall, came to the sisters, and bowed to greet them, "His Royal Highness Jia, please persuade Her Royal Highness Bao !"

--advise?What do you advise?

Qi Yulin was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Eunuch Wei suspiciously.

Seeing Qi Yulin's doubts, Eunuch Wei hurriedly explained, but it was Qi Yulu who came to intercede with Qi Yulin, but was rejected by His Majesty the Emperor and ignored him.Qi Yulu refused to give up, and simply knelt at the door of Qiankun Palace, assuming a tough posture that she would get up whenever the emperor saw her.

"The matter of His Royal Highness Yi Wang can't be concluded in a day or two. Even if His Royal Highness Princess Bao wants to do something for His Highness Yi Wang, it doesn't have to be today, right?" Eunuch Wei said while looking at the two People wink.

Qi Yulu was holding her breath and failed to notice Eunuch Wei's hint, but Qi Yulin understood——

Father is not in Qiankun Palace, and he won't be back anytime soon!

Qi Yulin immediately said: "Sister Huang wants to kneel, so let her kneel. Even if she can't bear it and kneels until she faints, it's just a matter of bothering her father-in-law to send her to Concubine Lu, it's not a big deal."

"Qi Yulin!"

Are you provoking me on purpose, or is it not a big deal to watch the excitement? !

Qi Yulu stared.

Qi Yulin ignored her, and only bent her knees towards her, "Sister Huang, do as you please, since father is busy at the moment, I will go to Fengqi Palace to visit the queen first."

After speaking, Qi Yulin turned around and left, leaving Qi Yulu where she was.

Leaving Qiankun Palace, Qi Yulin neither went to Fengqi Palace nor entered the harem, went around in a circle, and came to the gate of the Xia Palace in the southeast.

After receiving the great gift from the janitor, Qi Yulin said, "Please ask Mr. Pang to come over and tell me that I need his help with something important."

After the imperial husband "leaved Beijing" at nine thousand years old, Pang Zhong, the chief eunuch of the Summer Palace, did not leave with him. Instead, he stayed in the summer palace to continue managing the palace without its master, just like when nine thousand years old was there.

In fact, it is not that the owner is gone.

In the tenth year of Kaiyuan, the nine-thousand-year-old quietly returned to the capital.

This matter can be hidden from others, but it can't be hidden from Eunuch Wei who is next to His Majesty the Emperor. Then, through Wei Man, Qi Yulin also knew about this matter.

Today, Eunuch Wei stopped Qi Yulu outside the Qiankun Palace, and made such an expression, Qi Yulin felt that the father probably went to the Summer Palace to have a tryst with Nine Thousand Years - disturbing His Majesty is better than annoying an old A married princess is much more serious, and naturally there is no need to think about how to choose.

So, Qi Yulin didn't wait, and went directly to the Xia Palace to block people.

The result was just as Qi Yulin guessed.

Pang Zhong quickly appeared in front of Qi Yulin, led her into the gate of the Summer Palace without asking her why she came, and then sent her to the presence of His Majesty the Emperor and the Emperor's husband Nine Thousand Years Old, and then disappeared without a trace. trace.

To be exact, only her father, Qi Yunheng, was the only one who saw her face, while that imperial father, Ouyang, was blocked by a screen, and only a figure lying sideways on the imperial concubine's couch could be vaguely seen——

Qi Yulin withdrew his gaze, knelt down respectfully, "I want to report to my father, my son wants to seek the crown prince."

There were not many living people in the summer palace, and there were only three people in the flower hall they were in. Qi Yulin naturally spoke without any scruples.

But Qi Yulin's bluntness still made Qi Yunheng stunned for a moment, looked up and down at this daughter, and then said: "Do you know what you are talking about?"

"I know." Qi Yulin raised his head, "I have been preparing for this for 20 years, and today I finally got my chance."

The reason why Qi Yulin remembers the word fighting for the crown is because of his birth mother, Sun, but the real decision to fight for the crown was after traveling with Ouyang that year and interacting with local officials as the emperor's spokesperson.

Before that, she just wanted to; after that, she began to feel that she could.

She is qualified for that position, controls those officials, and governs the country with them, so that the country will continue to flourish and grow stronger along the foundation stone laid by the emperor.

Hearing what Qi Yulin said, Qi Yunheng lowered his face, "It seems that you also know what that idiot Qi Yuming did."

"Yes, I just went to see the second brother, and I met the eldest brother in the mansion of the second emperor." Qi Yulin admitted frankly, "When I entered the palace, the emperor was kneeling at the gate of Qiankun Palace, I want to ask you to intercede for the second emperor brother."

"The four of you are brothers and sisters." Qi Yunheng raised the corners of his mouth mockingly, "The news in this palace is also spreading fast, almost growing wings."

This time, Qi Yulin didn't dare to answer.

Qi Yunheng didn't speak any more, leaned on the chair, and began to meditate.

——Fortunately, at least she didn't deny her thoughts as delusions on the spot.

Qi Yulin breathed a sigh of relief quietly, comforting herself secretly.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind the screen.

"Do you know what is the biggest obstacle standing in front of you?"
