Jiuyou[Rebirth]

Chapter 019

The servants of the East Palace went down after serving the refreshments, leaving behind Chen Xi and Chen Wei.

"Why is my sister coming to the East Palace to look for me today?" Chen Xi asked, pouring a cup of tea for Chen Wei.

Chen Wei took a sip of tea, then frowned and said, "Jinxuan, do you remember Zhen Zhaoyi?"

"Zhen Zhaoyi?" Chen Xi was a little surprised that Chen Mao would mention this woman.

With all the memories of the original prince, he naturally knew who this woman Zhen Zhaoyi was.

For such a pure and kind person as the stupid prince, there was only one person he hated in his previous life, and that was Zhen Zhaoyi.

The reason is that this Zhen Zhaoyi resembles the former empress Shen.

Zhen Zhaoyi is the biological mother of the twelfth prince and eleventh princess, and she was just the daughter of a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River.

The status of scholars, farmers, businessmen, and merchants was generally low in ancient times, and it is no surprise in this era.

And although Zhen Zhaoyi's natal family has strong financial resources, they can't change her origin.

Elections are divided into general elections and minor elections. The general elections are almost all noblemen or ladies from official families. It is impossible for Zhen Zhaoyi to participate in the general election.

The general election is once every three years, and the minor election is once a year. The general election is to select concubines to enrich the harem, and the minor election is to select female officials and maids.

Zhen Zhaoyi Zhou participated in the annual election in the ninth year of Jingren, and entered the palace and became the female official next to the concubine He. The concubine let Zhou be a female official by her side because she wanted to use Zhou to look like a queen The appearance to solid favorite.

With Concubine De staring at her, the ambitious Zhou family naturally had no choice but to be a female official by Concubine De's side and keep her in favor of Concubine De.

Concubine De concubine conceived again in the tenth year of Jingren, which gave Zhou an opportunity to take advantage of it. After staying in the palace of Concubine De for a year, Zhou knew that she looked like the former empress whom she loves today, so she acted like she was somewhat similar to the former empress. Her appearance seduced her and favored her today, she jumped from a little female official in the palace of the concubine to the emperor's woman, and she was a seventh-rank beauty as soon as she was canonized, which attracted a lot of hatred in the palace.

In the autumn of the 11th year of Jingren, the Empress Dowager got a persistent illness, and the imperial hospital was helpless. The beauty Mrs. Zhou presented a folk recipe to heal the Empress Dowager. She was rewarded by the present and became a noble person of the sixth rank, and was also given the title [Zhen].

Some old people in the palace thought they thought of the former empress, and gave this precious word, mistakenly thinking it meant treasure, but in fact, the meaning of today is to make precious people cherish themselves, and his love for the former queen is not to let precious people be presumptuous Excuse.

Keeping the precious person, just because the emperor misses the former queen, does not mean that the emperor's love for the former queen has transferred to the precious person.

How can a merchant's daughter have the qualifications to compete with the former queen?

At the end of the summer of the 12th year of Jingren, the precious person was pregnant and gave birth to eleven princesses in the spring of the following year. Today, she is named Yan, and then the precious person was promoted to be the fifth-rank Jieyu.

In just three years, Jieyu became a fifth-rank official from a female official, and she was raised by a princess. At that time, the palace was the most favored among the six palaces.

It can be seen that this method is definitely not bad.

But this Zhen Jieyu is obviously not a peaceful master, the emperor didn't intend to give her a son at all, it was the first time she was pregnant and gave birth to a daughter, the emperor didn't kill her, but Zhen Jieyu couldn't see clearly My own position, in order to want a prince, I started to die non-stop, and then it was reported that I was pregnant again in the autumn of Jingren's 15th year, and I gave birth to a son as I wished in the summer of the following year, who was named Feng today, which is now Twelve Prince Chen Feng.

Today, Zhen Jieyu was conferred the title of fourth-rank Zhaoyi again, but since the birth of the twelfth prince last year, the Zhou family who became Zhen Zhaoyi has completely lost the favor of the emperor, and her health has been deteriorating. Zhen Zhaoyi is terminally ill and dying.

Zhen Zhaoyi didn't hurt her body because of giving birth to the prince, it was because the emperor couldn't tolerate her anymore.

This woman has a lot of ambitions, even after giving birth to the prince, she started to murder the prince, which is the reason why she is about to die now.

There are many people who dare to attack the prince, but Zhen Zhaoyi does not have the ability to bear the consequences.

Royal Concubine Lu, Shu Concubine Zhang, Virtuous Concubine He, Xian Concubine Zhao, Liang Concubine Cheng, Li Zhaoyi Ye, Wan Zhaoyi Liu, Fang Zhaoyi Xia, these concubines with princes under their knees, which one? Don't want to kill Chen Xi, the prince who was born as the first queen?

But, like the imperial concubine Lu, she came from the Peking Palace and had her own backing. As long as no obvious evidence was caught, the emperor could not convict her.

Concubine Shu, Concubine De, Concubine Xian, Concubine Liang, and Fang Zhaoyi are all from the noble families of dukes. They are all hereditary titles conferred by the emperors of past dynasties. , Hou Ye, uncle face.

That is Li Zhaoyi Ye's, Wan Zhaoyi Liu's, they all come from official families or aristocratic families, and they all have people behind them.

How is it like Zhen Zhaoyi, she is the daughter of a merchant, how can her background be compared to those of the founding heroes?The concubines who have filled the harem in the past dynasties are also indispensable to the noble ladies of these honorable families. The harem is closely related to the previous dynasties. This is not just talk.

The emperor can't help those concubines who have a background and can't be easily deposed, and can't kill a Zhen Zhaoyi who has no background?

It can be said that Zhen Zhaoyi has endured the resentment towards those concubines in recent years, plus she personally planned to kill the prince, and she would not complain if she killed him.

"If my sister is asking about the Zhou family from that merchant, then I know a thing or two. I don't know why my sister mentioned this Zhou family today?" It's just a dying person, so what do you care about?Talking about it all day long, I really think highly of that woman.

Princess Jiahui's expression turned ugly, "I passed by the Imperial Garden today, and heard the palace maid and eunuch talking about the seriously ill Zhen Zhaoyi, saying that it was because of murdering you that you ended up in this situation, Jinxuan, you..." She was thinking of not long ago No matter how you think about the fact that Chen Xi blocked the sword and fell into the water and almost died, no matter how you think about it, it's not just the second prince Chen Xiao's actions.

Chen Xi raised his eyebrows and said with a slight smile, "Sister, you don't need to delve into these matters, I have my own plans."

"But this woman stepped on her mother's queen and wanted to murder you shamelessly. How can I not hate it?" Chen Xi couldn't help crying and laughing when she heard the second sister insulting Zhen Zhaoyi regardless of the princess's demeanor.

Originally, Chen Wei just had a dislike for Zhen Zhaoyi, but after knowing that Zhen Zhaoyi had planned to frame her younger brother Chen Xi, her anger completely sublimated into resentment.

Chen Wei has been in poor health since she was a child, and she has often suffered from white eyes and gossip. Her character has already been tempered to the point where all poisons cannot invade her. It is really an honor for Zhen Zhaoyi to make this sister resent her.

"Sister, you can take a break, anyway, that woman is going to die anyway, why bother to talk about it, whether it's bad or not, it's putting money on her face if she cares so much." Chen Xi poured money on Chen Wei. Drinking a glass of water, he comforted me in a nice voice.

He doesn't think highly of that Zhen Zhaoyi, but if Chen Wei gets mad at that bitch, then he can't help but care, because he has the responsibility to make these relatives and friends happy.

"Why don't you take care of yourself? That bitch woman, stepping on her mother's position, not to mention, how arrogant she is to use her mother's fixed favor in the palace all these years. You are heartless and don't care about these things. If it were me, I would definitely She looks good." Chen Wei became impatient, glared at Chen Xi and started talking.

Chen Xi smiled wryly, "Sister, you've been in the East Palace for a while, and you keep talking about that dying person, isn't it bad luck?"

"Dying? She started dying last year, and she hasn't died yet!" Chen Wei said angrily.

Chen Xi was silent, not knowing what to say.

He has the memory of the former prince and the Dark Dragon Guard in his hands, so he naturally knows that Zhen Zhaoyi will die in a few days, but Chen Wei is not reborn, so of course he doesn't know.

"Sister, Zhen Zhaoyi has lost her favor now. The worst thing about the women in the harem is not the low-status maids, but the concubines who have lost the favor of the emperor. They all want to be favored by the emperor, but Father can only give them favor, but not love. Zhen Zhaoyi pretended to be smart and got the twelfth prince, but she didn't know that it was the birth of the twelfth prince that killed her." Chen Xi patted her elder sister's hand , softly comforted, "Sister, don't be angry, I will give you a letter, she will die in three days."

"How do you know?" Seeing that Chen Xi was so serious and said that Zhen Zhaoyi would die, Chen Mao's anger subsided a little, but she couldn't help feeling suspicious.

Chen Xi smiled, "Father gave me the sub-token of the Dark Dragon Guard. I learned many things you don't know from the Dark Dragon Guard."

"Dark Dragon Guard?" Chen Wei was astonished, "Isn't that handed over to the next emperor after the death of the father?"

"Sister thinks that father will hand over the throne to someone other than me?" Chen Xi chuckled.

Chen Wei: "..." That's right, she was stupid.

After being appeased, Chen Wei sat and waited for Zhen Zhaoyi to die.

Three days later, someone from the palace spread the news that Zhen Zhaoyi had gone.

After receiving the news, Chen Wei lost her composure in front of the eunuch who sent the message, and ran to the East Palace where Chen Xi lived.

Just as Chen Xi was about to go out, he bumped into Chen Yu head-on, quickly helped him up, his face turned pale with fright, "Sister, please calm down, why are you tossing your body?"

"Zhen Zhaoyi is dead! She is finally dead!!" Chen Wei didn't care about Chen Xi's scolding, grabbed Chen Xi's arm and began to scream excitedly.

Chen Xi raised his eyebrows without any surprise, "Then are you happy?"

Zhen Zhaoyi is too aggressive, but if she knows how to measure and doesn't push herself too far, she won't be in this situation.

The reason why Zhen Zhaoyi can live till now is because the emperor has poisoned her and wanted her to live a life worse than death.

In September of the 17th year of Jingren, Zhen Zhaoyi Zhou died of illness at the age of 27.

If the Zhou family had not disobeyed the holy will and insisted on using means to conceive the twelve princes, they might have lived longer.

Originally, she was suppressed as soon as she entered the palace, because she looked like the Empress Yuan, and she took advantage of the Empress Yuan, which was already annoying. She didn't know how to restrain herself, and she was not satisfied with being a princess. .

Could it be that she really thought that after she had three points of pixels, she was really held in the hands of today?

It's just a substitute, and I think too highly of my own fate, just like the loess that is now smashed into a handful, and the fragrance disappears.
