Chapter 58 059: Come on, hurt each other!
What can she see?
She doesn't want to see it at all!
But now I can’t stop looking at it. With the emperor on fire, everyone present is staring at her.
There are so many people, why does His Majesty ask Concubine Song alone?
Song Yunzhao looked at Concubine Shu and Concubine Wan who came in a hurry, looked at her with unfriendly eyes, and then met Concubine Zhuang's thoughtful gaze, this fire burned her, and she would be sorry for the emperor's "love" for her unless she was nirvana on the spot!
"Returning to Your Majesty, the concubine is just curious. There are so many flowers in this garden. How could Zhenmei be so lucky to pick the one raised by Concubine Zhuang?
"I'm a little curious after hearing what my concubine said." Feng Yi felt relieved seeing Song Yunzhao's hair all over his body and trying to force it down.
There are so many people in the harem, but this is the only one he picked out by himself, and he really didn't make a mistake.
Song Yunzhao heard the emperor set up steps for her. She was the person who liked to climb the stairs, and immediately pushed the emperor back to the top. "Your Majesty values my concubine so much. I am so grateful. It's a pity that my concubine has just entered the palace and everything is unknown. She is really unable to solve your majesty's worries and difficulties. However, my concubine believes that with your majesty's wisdom and martial arts, she will be able to find out the truth."
Feng Yi:...
Backhand dug a hole for him, really good!
Feng Yi took a deep look at Song Yunzhao, who kept a helpless and sincere smile.
Come on, hurt each other.
Feng Yi slowly withdrew his gaze, and his gaze at Zhen Meiren returned to normal, "Zhen Meiren, tell me why."
Beauty Zhen straightened up enduring the pain, collected herself, and then said: "Returning to Your Majesty, my concubine... After finishing breakfast this morning, my concubine felt bored for a while, and the maid Aster told me to come to the garden to pass the time. The concubine thought it made sense. I met Dong Guiren on the way here, so I went with her, and when I arrived at the imperial garden, I met Chen Guiji and enjoyed the flowers together..."
Song Yunzhao drew a map in his head when he heard this. Zhen Meiren lives in the West Side Hall of Linhua Palace, and Dong Guiren lives in the East Side Hall. It is not surprising that the two meet together. Chen Guiji lives in the East Side Hall of Qingyun Palace, where is the West Garden located?
It is in the middle of Linhua Palace, Qingyun Palace, Yanqing Palace and Cuiwei Palace. The four palaces surround the West Garden, so if Chen Guiji also comes to the West Garden to enjoy the flowers, it is normal to meet Zhen Meiren. Everything makes sense here.
"The three of us were walking in the garden casually. At that time, we saw a few hydrangeas blooming in the garden. I really don't know that these flowers are raised by the concubine Zhuang. If I knew that I would give my concubine a hundred courage, I wouldn't dare to touch them."
But these complaints, Zhen Meiren dare not say a word.
Concubine Zhuang has a good family background and is favored. She is a beauty who has just entered the palace and has a low status. How dare she say such things.
But she didn't dare to say it, but it didn't mean she didn't feel aggrieved, and tears fell down one by one as she spoke.
Song Yunzhao looked at Zhen Meiren without a word. After talking for a long time, he didn't say a single point. This is really an embroidered skinny head. No wonder others chose her to cheat.
Feng Yi has been secretly observing Song Yunzhao's expression, seeing that she is holding a fan to cover her lips, her eyes are rolling, and she knows that this person must be secretly laughing at others.
Although the emperor wanted to watch the fun, he didn't want to join in the fun by himself. He turned his eyes and landed on Concubine Shu, with a gentle smile on his face, "Concubine Shu, what do you think?"
Concubine Shu and Concubine Zhuang have never been in harmony, so I think they would be willing to stir up trouble.
Concubine Shu's eyes lit up, the emperor really valued her the most, and immediately said with a smile: "Your majesty, I feel that Zhen Meiren's words are not clear, how can I find out the truth, why don't I ask her a few words?"
Feng Yi nodded slightly, "Thank you for your hard work, my concubine."
Song Yunzhao:…
The emperor took this burden very well, Concubine Shu cheerfully took it, looking at her expression, she still felt that she was valued by the emperor.
She looked at Concubine Zhuang's seemingly unchanged expression, and found it very interesting. The truth of this matter is no longer important. The emperor dragged Concubine Shu into the water, and this matter became a game between Concubine Shu and Concubine Zhuang. Those newcomers to the palace were all pawns who charged into battle.
Thinking that she is also one of the pawns, she is in a very bad mood.
Concubine Shu got the golden words from the emperor, glanced at Concubine Zhuang, and then stepped forward to look at Zhen Meiren, "It's hot weather, and after kneeling for so long, Concubine Zhuang should vent her anger, get up and talk back." After speaking, she looked at Concubine Zhuang again, "Concubine Zhuang, don't you have any dissatisfaction?"
Concubine Zhuang met Concubine Shu's provocative gaze, sneered inwardly, but said: "Concubine Shu is really kind-hearted, how dare I have any dissatisfaction."
Step on her face to be a good person, and not afraid of falling down from a high climb.
Beauty Zhen became smarter now, and hurriedly kowtowed to Concubine Shu to thank Concubine Zhuang, and then saluted Concubine Zhuang, tremblingly helping her little palace maid Cui Ju to stand up, her knees hurt badly, she had been kneeling for a long time, now she stood up and sat back down.
"Men Zhenmei, I ask you before you came to the garden, who else told you about coming to the garden besides the palace people around you?" Concubine Shu looked at Zhenmei and asked calmly.
Zhen Meiren was taken aback for a moment, then thought for a while, then shook her head, "If you go back to your mother, there is no more."
Concubine Shu nodded slightly, then looked at Aster again, "Aster, I ask you, why did you suggest that Beauty Zhen go to the garden?"
Aster hurriedly opened her mouth and replied: "Responding to the words of Empress Concubine Shu, the servant saw that the young master had nothing to do after breakfast, and thought that the scenery in the garden was just right, so I said this."
Song Yunzhao nodded secretly, reasonable.
Concubine Shu asked again: Then do you know that there are flowers of Concubine Zhuang in the garden? "
Aster was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Hui Niangniang's words, I seem to have heard about it, but I haven't seen it with my own eyes. I used to work in the Liushang Bureau, and I was assigned to serve in Lanyue Palace recently, so I really don't know about the garden."
Concubine Shu looked at Zhen Meiren after finishing speaking, "Zhen Meiren, when you were with Dong Guiren Chen Guiji, did you hear the two of you mentioning the incident in the garden?"
Dong Guiren thought about it carefully, then shook his head, "Returning to your mother, we just came all the way to enjoy the scenery, and didn't say anything else."
"I will ask you again, why do you want to pick flowers all of a sudden, there must be a reason?"
"Return to your mother's words..." Dong Guiren paused after saying this, and suddenly turned his head to look at Aster.
Aster lowered her head, as if she didn't notice it.
"At that time, Aster said that Lanyue Hall was empty, and it would be nice to pick a few flowers and put them back home. The concubine thought this made sense, so she took a fancy to the hydrangeas that were in full bloom." Zhen Meiren stared at Aster after she finished speaking, "Aster, do you intend to guide me to pick flowers?"
Aster trembled in fright, and immediately knelt down on the ground and said: "I don't have any, how could I dare to do such a thing? At that time, I really thought that putting a few flowers in the palace would make the beauty feel better, so I dared to say such a thing."
Zhen Meiren hesitated when she heard it, and it seemed to make sense.
Concubine Shu no longer looked at Zhen Meiren, but only looked at Aster and asked, "Since you came from the Liushang Bureau, where did you work before and who did you work for?"
Aster's expression tightened, and her forehead was pressed against the ground, "Going back to your mother, the slave girl used to work in the Clothing Bureau, and she was with Mother Fan."
Concubine Shu looked at Dong Guiren and Chen Guiji again, "Did you two notice something was wrong? Or, do you still remember what else this aster said?"
Dong Guiren's face was always quite pale. At this time, he was questioned and trembled in fright, and quickly replied: "As for the empress, although the concubine was with Zhenmei, I was a little far away from her when I was admiring the flowers, so I don't know what Aster said."
Concubine Shu looked at Chen Guiji again, and Chen Guiji immediately said, "Returning to the empress, the concubine was with Zhen Meiren at the time, and she did hear what Aster said, but she didn't listen to the others. Zhen Meiren had just picked the flowers, and someone came to reprimand her for committing disrespect to Concubine Zhuang.
Song Yunzhao watched Concubine Shu resolutely send the palace servants who caught Miss Zhenmei to pick flowers for questioning, and asked people to investigate Cuiju's affairs in the clothing bureau. The scene suddenly became subtle.
From this point of view, it should be that Aster was instigated by someone to deliberately lead Zhen Meiren to make mistakes.
She seriously recalled the plot, but really didn’t remember whether this was mentioned in the plot, because the plot at that time mainly revolved around Qin Xiyue’s battle with Concubine Zhuang.
As for the truth, it doesn't matter anymore, because the emperor's anger fell on Concubine Zhuang's bullying.
Song Yunzhao felt that he might have some problems with his eyes and three senses when he was reading the book, but he didn't realize that the truth was buried.
Thinking about it now, I didn't see it back then, how could I be degraded after reading a book? The key is that she didn't think there was a problem.
Thinking of this, Song Yunzhao's eyes fell on Qin Xiyue, and when he saw her, he remembered the things that had been neglected. This time the matter took a turn, why didn't she help Zhen Meiren righteously hate Concubine Zhuang?
Song Yunzhao secretly kept a mind, as long as Qin Xiyue doesn't move, she won't move. The emperor pushed Concubine Shu to fight with Concubine Zhuang. She just happened to retire without fame.
Because the person behind Aster could not be found out in a short while, the emperor waited impatiently, so he left the matter to Concubine Shu and left in style.
Concubine Shu sent the emperor away, and seeing that Song Yunzhao and others were an eyesore, she sent them away with a sullen face.
Song Yunzhao just didn’t want to stand by here, so he really got up and left. Han Jinyi followed, walked beside her and said softly, “Who do you think is behind Aster?”
"I don't know that." Song Yunzhao shook his head.
However, looking at it comprehensively, Qin Xiyue's performance in the book is very different from her current performance, which is doubtful, but she can't tell Han Jinyi about this, without evidence. Isn't it a joke to tell others that I read it from the book?
Song Yunzhao was a little suspicious of Qin Xiyue, but there was no evidence to prove that this matter was really related to her, but his defense against the heroine was raised to another level.
"Huh?" Song Yunzhao looked sideways at Han Jinyi, "You also feel something is wrong?"
"You think so too?" Han Jinyi asked in surprise.
Song Yunzhao nodded.
Han Jinyi breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought it was my stomach, but it was not an illusion."
Song Yunzhao thought that Han Jinyi was smarter than herself when she read the book, and she didn't lose her wits. She thought about it and said, "Do you think this has something to do with Concubine Qin?"
"Isn't it possible?" Han Jinyi was taken aback, "We have just entered the palace, how can we have such contacts..." She paused at this point, but it may not be the case.
Song Yunzhao listened to what Han Jinyi said, and said with a smile: "Whether it's true or not, you and I should be more careful."
Han Jinyi nodded silently with lingering fear in her heart, and separated from Song Yunzhao at the fork in the road, and she went straight back to her Qiulan Hall.
Yingchun looked at it worriedly, and said softly: "Master, don't think so much, anyway, you just don't want to get involved in this matter."
Han Jinyi shook her head. She couldn't say that. Thinking about the fact that someone with ulterior motives like Cuiju was sent to Zhen Meiren's side, she was now somewhat on guard against the people around her. She swallowed her words, and after thinking about it, she said cautiously: "I just think that Zhen Meiren is really pitiful. She didn't know anything and was calculated by someone. Today is really a disaster."
She knew that life in the palace was difficult, but she never expected it to be so dangerous.
His Majesty didn't look very good when he left. Unless Zhenmei can find a way to turn around in the future, if she is crowned as a fool today, she won't even think about being favored in the future. To leave such a bad impression on His Majesty, there is no room for success.
The little girl in her prime was ruined just like that.
Yingchun heard this from the side, smiled and said: "Master, if you stay in the palace for a few more days, you will know. There are many poor people in this palace. You will gradually get used to it."
Han Jinyi heard Yingchun's words, looked at her and asked, "The concubines who went to the palace first..."
Yingchun listened to the master's words, and then lowered her voice and said: "Master is really powerful, except for the third concubine, the others are just in name."
Han Jinyi only felt chills all over her body. She heard from her father that the first concubines who entered the palace could not be said to have strong family backgrounds, but they all had a history.
Yingchun saw that the master looked bad, and didn't dare to say anything more, so she changed the subject and said with a smile: "Now it's summer, and the masters' summer shirt department has to rush to make clothes. In the next few days, I have to come to tailor the clothes. At that time, the servants will help the master choose some good-looking patterns."
Han Jinyi nodded casually, but her thoughts drifted far away. After Yingchun finished speaking, she sent the person away. She leaned on the soft pillow and thought about her future way out.
Although she thinks that she is not stupid, after what happened today, she also feels that she is really incapable of competing with everyone in the palace one by one.
Wanting to save his life and his dignity, thinking of His Majesty's agility to walk away in the end, the emperor has no hope.
She can only think of a way out. The three concubines have lived in the palace for so many years, and it is not easy to follow them. I am afraid that they will have to pay a high price, and it may become a stepping stone. This is not what she wants.
Originally, she had a good relationship with Qin Xiyue and the others, and she also meant to support each other at the beginning, so she got close to them when she ran for the election. However, following some things that happened in Zhichun Palace, she now thinks that she may have thought too good.
At the beginning, Qin Xiyue spoke up for Zhen Meiren, and she still felt that she was right, but then Qin Xiyue didn't say a word, and now thinking about it carefully, she felt a little chilly in her heart.
Why did Qin Xiyue pretend to be deaf and dumb?
It is nothing more than His Majesty handing over the matter to Concubine Shu, and Concubine Shu discovered the abnormality of Aster. She felt that although Beauty Zhen was innocent, after this incident, His Majesty's reputation would be greatly damaged, and her future future would be ruined.
People who ruin their future are naturally worthless, so Qin Xiyue let go.
If she joins forces with Qin Xiyue, she will be worthless in the future, will Qin Xiyue also be able to let go decisively?
Although this was just her guess, the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, and the plan to form an alliance with Qin Xiyue was completely shattered.
Looking back at Yun Zhao, His Majesty pointed out Yun Zhaolai at the time, if it were someone else, she would definitely have investigated it to the end and showed her merits in front of His Majesty, but she didn't, so she changed hands and dumped the matter.
Moreover, if Yun Zhao hadn't intervened in today's incident, Aster would have avoided it, and if things continued at that time, it might have turned into a confrontation between Qin Xiyue and Concubine Zhuang. In this way, Qin Xiyue took advantage of Zhen Meiren's affairs to gain the limelight, and naturally stood out from the newcomers like them.
Han Jinyi didn't dare to think anymore, and felt that the more he thought about it, the more confused he became.
This night, she didn't sleep well, and her sleep was full of things that happened during the day.
Song Yunzhao is different, big things can't disturb her sleep, she sleeps beautifully, and wakes up refreshed the next day.
"Is there a follow-up to yesterday's incident?" Song Yunzhao asked Xiangxue after eating breakfast.
Xiangxue was clearing the table with Dianthus, and she shook her head when she heard this, "There is no movement in Cuiwei Palace, and Nanny Yu asked Anshun to keep an eye on it, and will report back if there is any news."
Song Yunzhao felt that it was impossible to dig out the big BOSS. The Department of Clothes Bureau made clothes and jewelry for the concubines in the harem.
This matter will most likely be a headless case. Even if Concubine Shu tries to get to the bottom of it, she probably won’t be able to reach out that long, unless she wants the right minister to intervene, but the emperor will definitely be dissatisfied with the right minister intervening in the harem.
For a mere Zhenmei, how could Concubine Shu be willing to let her father come forward.
So don't think about this matter, it will definitely stop abruptly from Aster.
Yesterday the emperor left so quickly, he must have thought of the ending, so he was too lazy to waste time.
Song Yunzhao is not interested in taking care of these things, she has no energy to protect herself, how can she be someone else's hero.
Continue to write scripts in the study, and try to write two books when I meet Xie Linlang. Gongdou and the emperor are not as good as Yinzixiang. The palace wants to live comfortably, and there are so many people running up and down, how can it be done if you don't work hard to make money.
It is better to rely on yourself than to rely on others.
Song Yunzhao happily wrote his script, while the emperor at the Taiji Palace was reading the notebook handed over by Concubine Shu. After reading it, there was a bit of sarcasm in his eyes, and he knew it would be like this.
Meng Jiuchang noticed that His Majesty was in a bad mood, so he didn't dare to intervene at this time, and it took him a while to hear His Majesty say, "Just do as Concubine Shu wants."
"Yes." Meng Jiuchang hurriedly responded, and waited until His Majesty had no intention of speaking, then turned and walked out.
Feng Yi's fingertips slid over the booklet sent by Concubine Shu, and casually threw it into the pile of useless books.
"Your Majesty." Zhang Maoquan quickly stepped into the hall, bowed and saluted.
Feng Yi glanced at Zhang Maoquan, "How is it?"
"The servant asked to ask quietly, and the Bureau of Clothes only said that Cui Ju went to work five years ago, and that she was not transferred from the harem, but was directly assigned to the Bureau of Clothes after the selected palace servants entered the palace." Zhang Maoquan said that his palms were sweating.
If there is a problem with Aster, it means that the person behind it is meticulous and thoughtful. At the beginning, Aster was not allowed to leave traces in the harem, but went directly to the Department of Clothes Bureau to work, so there were too few traces left. If you want to find out who is behind it, you must confess to Aster.
"Besides, just this morning, Aster committed suicide by throwing a stick." Zhang Maoquan spat out these words with difficulty.
Feng Yi was not surprised at all, and sneered, "It's really a big deal."
Zhang Mao didn't dare to say a word during the whole sentence, and hung his head in silence.
But I agree with His Majesty's words in my heart. A life is gone if it is gone. If you throw yourself to death, who knows if you hang it up by yourself or someone else.
The lives of these slaves are worthless, and who would treat them as human beings.
"Let people watch closely, don't startle the snake." Feng Yi looked at Zhang Maoquan and ordered.
"Yes, the servant must handle things properly." Zhang Maoquan replied immediately.
They did not pay much attention to the Department of Clothes Bureau before. Who would have thought that others would start from here, and now that a person dies, he can't die in vain.
"Concubine Shu has done a good job in investigating the case, so I will pick a few pieces of silk and satin from the new tribute and send them to Concubine Zhuang. There is no need for Concubine Zhuang, you can go."
"The servant obeys."
Zhang Maoquan took people to open His Majesty's private treasury, and carried the silk and satin to Cuiwei Palace with great fanfare. He deliberately let people pass by Concubine Zhuang's Zhaoyang Palace, and the business was bustling.
Concubine Zhuang was very angry in Zhaoyang Palace, but Concubine Shu was very proud, and rewarded Cuiwei Palace with great fanfare.
The corners of Song Yunzhao's mouth twitched when he got the news. The emperor's divorce plan was not very clever but it worked.
Now she has a certain idea of her personality in the harem, and she is waiting for the canonization ceremony.
Because she can only be favored after canonization, the emperor has to pay some price for throwing her into the maelstrom of the harem.
