Although the relationship between the queen and Concubine Yun was like a calm lake on the surface, it was actually surging. Over the years, the queen has sat firmly with her position as the queen, but she still has to worry about Yunguifei, who is more favored than her. Since entering the palace, Concubine Yun has been suppressed by the queen everywhere, and she can’t help but feel resentful. The most important contradiction between the two is the future battle for the throne.
At present, the battle for the position of the Eastern Palace mainly revolves around the fifth prince produced by the queen, the eighth prince produced by the Concubine Yun, and the seventh prince who has no dependents but has outstanding talents.
Although the seventh prince was extremely talented and had a good attitude towards governing the country, her mother was born a humble background and he himself disdained to form cliques. There were few important officials in the court following him.
The eighth prince produced by Concubine Yun was ambitious, but except for the favored mother concubine Concubine Yun and the crumbling forces of Concubine Yun’s mother’s family, he did nothing and was far less than the seventh prince’s strength.
As for the fifth prince produced by the queen, he was capable, powerful and supported by the Murong family, so he naturally became the person who was most likely to win the throne.
Concubine Yun disdained the Seventh Prince. What kind of climate can a prince who doesn’t even have anyone to follow? Therefore, the fifth prince undoubtedly became the object of Yun Guifei’s most worried.
The queen thought that she was almost killed by Duan Liusu today, so she thought of the reason
Concubine Yun. Whether Duan Liusu waited for the opportunity to drug the queen to frame Duan Yunfei, or the Queen Yun Guisu instructed Duan Liusu to instruct Duan Yunfei to be victimized in the Jiaofang Palace and Emperor Yuwen blamed the Queen, or the Queen could not allow any possibility of this.
Duan Liusu was drinking medicine, but she felt a chill coming from behind. Duan Liusu had no courage to turn around. After all, she was in the wrong today. If she hadn’t been brave enough to frame Duan Yunfei with the Queen’s life, it wouldn’t have been so bold.
“Doctor Gu, go down first,” Duan Yingluo noticed something was wrong with the queen, so she sent the imperial physician to retreat first. “If the eleventh princess and the thirteenth princess still need it, I will call you again. Also, don’t report to your father about this matter. The father is busy these days, so don’t worry about these matters.”
If Duan Yingluo said this alone, it might be criticized. After all, Duan Yunfei and Duan Liusu had an accident in the Jiaofang Hall, and she was the queen’s daughter. If it was spread, everyone would inevitably criticize that it was the queen’s point of harming Duan Yunfei, and Duan Yingluo sent the imperial physician away in order to cover up this matter.
However, hasn’t Duan Yunfei always been filial to Emperor Yuwen? He must be unwilling to worry Emperor Yuwen. So Duan Yingluo turned around and said to Duan Yunfei, “Thirteenth Sister, what do you think?”
Duan Yunfei had already explained this before Duan Yingluo came. Duan Yunfei guessed that Duan Yingluo must be afraid of being rude, so she did this foreverAsked about my opinion. However, Duan Yunfei’s goal has been achieved, so he naturally does not want things to make a big deal. By then, Emperor Yuwen will feel that there are many struggles between his children. In that case, Duan Yunfei will feel that he is very unfilial. “What the sixth sister said is that I have already told the Empress before. Doctor Gu, I feel better now, Doctor Gu will go back first. I will wait until I return to Hongluan Palace, and I will ask you to see you again.”
Since Duan Yunfei said this, Doctor Gu has no reason to keep it, but whether to report this matter to Emperor Yuwen needs to be considered again.
