So, Zhao Ling'e couldn't help but want to take the initiative to see Mrs. Zhao, so she got this illness.
Let's meet as soon as we meet. It's just a good time to observe in secret what Mrs. Zhao is doing now.
The Huizhou incident cannot be said to be known to everyone, but it has already become an uproar. Now there is a lot of discussion in the harem.
It's just that Huizhou's affairs are too far away from the harem, so everyone only talks about it, but not many people actually take it seriously.
Feng Yunjin is one of them.
She thought about it again and again, but still felt a little uneasy, so she came to see the imperial concubine again the next day.
Yun Zhao was not surprised to see her coming again, so he asked the nanny to take the second prince out to play, and the two went to the study to talk.
“Mother, does this matter have anything to do with Zhao Cainu?” Feng Yunjin asked with a frown.
"I don't know if it is related now, but it probably has something to do with the Zhao family." Yun Zhao looked at Feng Yunjin and said.
Feng Yunjin's face darkened, "I felt that Zhao Cainu's illness was too coincidental, yet she asked to see her family."
"What do you suspect?" Yun Zhao knew that Feng Yunjin was always thoughtful, so he looked at her and asked.
Feng Yunjin raised his eyes and looked at the imperial concubine, "After returning to Beijing from Yong'an Palace, I have been paying close attention to Zhao Cainu. In the first two months, she was very calm and did not do anything out of line."
Yun Zhao nodded. Zhao Ling'e was always willing to put in the effort to do something like looking good, but it wouldn't be possible for her.
"She made friends everywhere after she first entered the palace. Although she was demoted once, she helped many people train horses on the palace racecourse. Everyone got back on good terms with her. She is also a clever person. In the past few months, we have been with each other. Our relationship is getting better and better.”
Yun Zhao heard this and smiled slightly, "What next?"
"However, since half a month ago, that is, after the Huizhou incident came out, something is not right with Zhao Cainu. Others may not be able to tell, but I have been watching her for several months, and I can still find that people in her palace are asking for information. The number of times gradually increased, especially when she wanted to inquire about the movements in the Taiji Hall. It’s just that she did it very covertly, and it would be difficult to find it if she didn’t keep watching.”
Speaking of this, Feng Yunjin said: "Actually, the sketch paintings around her are very good. He can secretly make connections for her, inquire about information, and win over people's hearts. He is very capable."
Yun Zhao thought that this was not unexpected. If she couldn't do plain painting, Zhao Ling'e would not keep her.
“It’s also a skill to know people and make good use of them.”
"Yeah, I'm very curious about why Zhao Cainu keeps asking about things outside. Now it seems that I suspect that the things in Huizhou have something to do with the Zhao family. Zhao Cainu is worried, so she is asking around."
Yun Zhao looked at her and smiled, "Maybe, but there is no evidence."
Listening to what the imperial concubine said, Feng Yunjin knew that her speculations during this period were indeed true. She pondered for a moment, and then said: "In this case, if the empress allows her to see her family, then the concubine will secretly give her a push. She is a human being. It’s a ghost, you’ll know it just by looking at it.”
“What do you want to do?” Yun Zhao looked at her and asked.
"Although the paintings around Zhao Cainu are not easy to get close to, there is not only one palace official in Huayang Palace." Feng Yunjin smiled sheepishly, "I was wary of her as early as when she was disrespectful to the empress. Later, Concubine An Gui followed her. The Queen Mother went to the palace, and the palace staff in Huayang Palace also changed, so the concubine put her own people in, but Zhao Cainu has always been cautious, she is still only a third-class palace maid, but it is enough to be an informant."
Yunzhao:…
If Zhao Ling'e hadn't been a little eager to see Mrs. Zhao, Feng Yunjin wouldn't have spotted the flaw.
“Who else knows about this besides you?” Yun Zhao looked at her and asked. Feng Yunjin shook his head, "Your Majesty is the second one."
That is to say, she placed someone in Huayang Palace, and even Lu Zhixue and Han Jinyi didn't know about it, which shows that she is cautious.
"I don't believe them unless I'm a concubine. It's just that the less people know about this kind of thing, the safer the spy will be. Zhao Cainu is a very smart person."
“I understand, I’m just surprised that you stared at her so early, thank you for your hard work.”
“Compared to what my empress did for me, this is nothing but hard work.” Feng Yunjin smiled.
Yun Zhaoxiao said, "Don't say that. In fact, I really haven't done much."
"Your Majesty is always so self-effacing. When my father was promoted to an official, and then was reused by Your Majesty, my concubine's position can help manage palace affairs. My Majesty even gave the Baozhuang Building to my slaves. In my eyes, this is just a small matter. But every one of them is a big deal to me.”
Doesn’t the imperial concubine know that when she reuses herself, it is like lifting her up? Because the imperial concubine likes to reuse her, her family will also benefit from it.
It’s just that this kind of benefit cannot be mentioned in words. It is invisible, but it really exists.
Her father has a rough and arrogant nature, and often does not do things so thoughtfully and rigorously. He has suffered a lot of losses because of this, and he has been unable to advance to the position of commanding others for many years.
But now she is a commander. As long as she keeps going steadily, her father will definitely be able to make further progress when the commander is promoted or retires.
She could only repay such kindness by trying her best to help the noble concubine share her worries.
Yun Zhao felt both happy and melancholy when she heard this. In fact, her original intention was not that simple. It was just that as we walked side by side, our feelings gradually deepened.
She and they each got what they needed, and everyone got along well.
But after so many years, we have really become like sisters.
"It goes without saying that Mr. Feng has done his job well and it makes sense for the emperor to promote him." Yun Zhao smiled, "Since you are sure, I will leave the affairs of Huayang Palace to you. It is best if you can I heard the conversation between Mrs. Zhao and Zhao Cainv, but I know it’s a bit difficult, so just try your best.”
"It's not impossible." Feng Yunjin smiled, "The only thing Zhao Cainu trusts is Su Hua, as long as Su Hua can't do it that day."
Yun Zhao was surprised and then thought it was a good idea, "What do you want to do?"
“We can only let Su Hua get a little sick and be unable to get out of bed for a day or two. Maybe even with this little punishment, we can save her life.” Feng Yunjin said.
“Then let’s do it.”
Yun Zhao said decisively that she could not be kind to a woman at this moment.
"Then I'll make arrangements." Feng Yunjin stood up. This matter was very urgent. He had to make sure that Su Hua couldn't be on duty before Mrs. Zhao entered the palace, and that Zhao Ling'e couldn't be given the opportunity to arrange backup.
Time is very tight.
Feng Yunjin left in a hurry, and Yun Zhao called Xiangxue over again, "Tell Zhang Maoquan and ask him to deliver a message to the uncle. Mrs. Zhao is about to enter the palace to meet Zhao Ling'e, and ask him to keep an eye on Mr. Zhao."
The first update is here, and there is another update, okay?
