Only talk about the past, not the future.

Wan Yue understood the thoughts of her princess.

Talking about the future, if the late empress is really ill, it will be much more beneficial to them.

A wife who passed away early, because of the love and guilt of the Holy Spirit, in the past ten years, everything she recalled was beautiful and memorable.

Rather than saying that it was the real late empress, it was better to say that it was an old dream of a beautiful lady in the mind of the Holy One.

And once it is revealed that she is mentally ill, the dream built by the Holy Spirit will be shattered from the very foundation.

Without the dream, Li Shao, the eldest son left behind by the late empress, is bound to be affected as well.

Mother Ma gave Lin Yunyan more tea and said: "Not to mention what the Holy Emperor would think at that time, the former harem will not let His Highness go. There is no better opportunity than this."

Lin Yunyan nodded: "Yes, it's all about people."

It is a sin to pay attention to auspiciousness, cause and effect, and to be crazy.

Yu Gong, this is for Dashun, for the sake of the country, for private affairs, is there any knife that is better than this?

The first empress passed away many years ago, and the courtiers may not force the emperor to hold the queen accountable, but they will definitely insist on establishing a new empress. They cannot just sit back and let a madman become the only empress of Emperor Yongjia.

Xinhou symbolizes imperial power and means "direct lineage".

In the past, no one could compete with each other, so you are good to me and everyone is good to maintain a balance of "no one has anything".

Now that we can compete, you can imagine how "lively" it will be.

At the same time, it is almost impossible for Li Shao to make a comeback.

The queen mother is a madman, who can prove that Li Shao is not a madman?

After all, there were many times when Li Shao lost control of his emotions and became violently irritable.

Apart from that, when the prince was deposed and he was forced to move out of the East Palace, Li Shao drew his sword and slashed, which can definitely be regarded as a "madman".

At that time, there was a chaotic situation up and down the court and in front of and in the harem.

"Perhaps," Lin Yunyan took a sip of tea and thought, "is this Pang Feng's purpose?

If it was really Li Du who was behind him, it would not be difficult to understand this move.

There were wars on the border, disputes in the court, and the Holy Emperor was very anxious, so it was convenient for him, Li Du, to stir up trouble.

Furthermore, from Li Du's point of view, it is true that he hates the Duke, but he hates the Holy Lord and Li Shao even more.

Li Shao has gone 'crazy', and the Holy Emperor's longing for the late empress and his preference for his legitimate son have also been ruined. Li Du's move is to stab the Holy Emperor's heart."

Wan Yue took a breath and asked: "Then what are you going to do?

Exposing their conspiracy and insisting that the late empress was not insane would have saved His Highness, and it would be difficult to attack His Majesty with "madness" in the future.

But if you watch a tiger fight from a distance, Your Highness will be doomed, but if the court is unstable, that is not what you and the Duke want."

What a dilemma!

Wan Yue thought, the princess was right, Li Du also hated the Duke.

They were given a dilemma to choose. Although it was not a stab in the heart, one road was full of lightning and thunder, another road was flooded to the knees, and no matter which way they took, they would end up drowned.

Furthermore, since the Duke has left Beijing and the affairs in Beijing have been left to the princess, Li Du may have had the idea of ​​sowing discord between the couple.

However, Li Du was destined to be disappointed in this matter.

The Duke and the Princess will not argue over these matters!

It's a pity, yes.

"It would be great if you could discuss this with the Duke." Wan Yue sighed in a low voice.

Lin Yunyan was slightly startled when she heard the sound, and suddenly thought of what Xu Jian had said.

"inconvenient."

Before getting married, if there was any news to be exchanged between them, it would have to be delayed.

It's inconvenient to ask Dong Chen's family to deliver the message.

It's not convenient to borrow a place.

It's good to be married. The study is just a few steps from the main courtyard, so we can communicate more if we have any ideas.

And many ideas are also reflected in repeated exchanges and communication, or they have a flash of inspiration or a sudden enlightenment.

Of course, it seems that it is even more inconvenient now that she is in the capital and Xu Jian is in Yumen.

Lin Yunyan smiled helplessly and said: "We are not afraid of dilemmas. When we confront Li Du, aren't we looking for our own opportunities in his layout from the beginning?"

The next day.

Liao Zi acted quickly and reported the gathered news.

"Pang Feng's background is consistent with what he said."

"Four years ago, he met Mr. Xia San at a seminar. Because they listened to an old gentleman's lecture together, they can call him a classmate, so the relationship is not close."

"Since last year or so, the two of them have been seeing each other a lot, but they seem to be talking about academic issues."

"Pang Feng's studies were indeed funded by others. According to his neighbor's recollection, it should have been in the spring four years ago. Due to the death of Pang's father, the family situation took a turn for the worse. Pang's mother had to do three or four jobs by herself, and she was so tired that she almost fell asleep while walking.

.Suddenly one day I didn’t go to work during the day, so my neighbor asked, and Pang’s mother said that with the help of kind-hearted people, she wouldn’t have to work so hard in the future.”

"Pang Feng's studies are not bad. Jinshi dare not say that. There is still hope for him to become a scholar, so the neighbors are happy for him and say that there is no need to waste his studies."

"The person who sponsored Pang Feng has never appeared in the Pang family area. No one knows where he came from, nor how Pang Feng got into the eyes of the nobleman."

"The little one was passing outside Pang's house. The courtyard door was closed, and one could hear people moving inside."

"It is said that the old lady is really crazy. I am afraid that she will have a sudden attack and run out of the house to scare others. The door of Pang's house is never opened."

"Some people also said that they heard something sick inside, crying and calling Pang Feng's father's name, which made the neighbors very intolerable."

After hearing this, Lin Yunyan asked Liao Zi: "In other words, what Pang Feng and Xia Qingzhi said yesterday, no matter what the thoughts behind it, are actually all true?"

"Yes," Liao Zi replied, "so far, it's all true. Pang's courtyard is small. The young one stood in the downwind for a while, and could vaguely smell some burning aroma. The young one even asked the old lady about it.

The doctor who treated me was also right in what he said."

Lin Yunyan thought about it and asked: "Which doctor?"

Liao Zidao: "Doctor Liu from Tongrenzhai in Nancheng."

Lin Yunyan asked curiously: "Tongrenzhai? That is a time-honored brand in the capital. The consultation fee is not cheap, and the medicine is 30% more expensive than other restaurants. It is all thanks to the doctor's skill and good reputation accumulated over many years. Pang Feng, mother and son, are really willing to spend money on the old lady."

Money.”

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "What you are saying is," Liao Zi nodded repeatedly, "The medicine boy at Tongrenzhai has some impressions of Pang Feng. It is said that the initial onset of the disease was not seen here four years ago.

The first medical visit since spring.

Madness can be said to be more or less, and the medicine boy has seen a few of them, but not everyone is willing to light spices and burn them day and night all year round. Ordinary people cannot bear the expense.

Because of this, he was deeply impressed by Pang Fengcai."

He looks like a poor scholar, his family is not rich, but he is filial.

Lin Yunyan sorted out her thoughts: "Four years ago, in the spring, that is to say, after receiving the support from the master, her studies and life became easier. Pang Feng hired a doctor from Tongrenzhai for her grandmother, and she has been taking care of her for the past few years."

After telling Liao Zi to try his best to find out more information about his sponsor, Lin Yunyan sat at the table and sorted out his thoughts.

She dipped her fingertips in some water and wrote and drew on the table. Others couldn't understand it, but it was Lin Yunyan's own habit.

After about a quarter of an hour, the water stains on the table dried, and the painting was repeated several times. Lin Yunyan finally let out a long sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Wan Yue asked: "Princess Princess?"

Lin Yunyan stood up: "Go back to Uncle Chengyi's house."

The carriage drove into the uncle's house, and Lin Yunyan went to see Xiao Duan first.

Xiao Duan's mind sank and everyone in the room retreated.

"Come here two days in a row," she said, "you must have something important to do."

"I can't hide it from you," Lin Yunyan smiled and lowered her voice, "I want to ask some old stories about the late Queen."

Little Duan was extremely surprised.

Yesterday, Yun Yan personally went to Enrongbo's house to deliver cold cakes, and little Duan tasted them.

"Were you thinking about this yesterday?" she asked.

"It wasn't all the same yesterday," Lin Yunyan said. "When I went back in the evening, I encountered some situations and vaguely got some clues. I couldn't ask others, so I came to inquire with my grandmother."

Xiao Duan said: "Just ask."

"In your opinion, what is the temperament of the late Queen? Does she ever lose her temper suddenly and inexplicably?" Lin Yunyan pursed her lower lip and said directly, "It's just that kind of madness."

Xiao Duan's face turned pale, and she subconsciously stopped: "You can't talk nonsense like this!"

After trying to stop her, she also understood that it was her own family members who were speculating on the matter. Xiao Duan recalled it carefully for a while: "In my impression, the late empress was gentle and courteous, with a measured advance and retreat.

You also know that the people living in our alley are either the mansions of princes or the families of high-ranking officials. Before the Xia family received the title, it was all downhill.
