Chapter 153 Xichun Traitor
However, after Yinzhen made these arrangements.
Yixiu, however, was very polite and bowed, wanting to leave.
"Your Majesty, the harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs. I am only here to remind Your Majesty. You can summon the Imperial Observatory to investigate. If Your Majesty has nothing else to do, I will withdraw first."
Yixiu knew very well how important peace in the harem and tranquility in the court were to the emperor.
What Yinzhen hated most was to see the former dynasty and the harem being connected.
Otherwise, Longkodo would not have ended up like this.
The Queen Mother's previous experience made her understand this truth clearly.
Yinzhen nodded, but said it was okay.
"You are my queen, such a small matter is not worth mentioning. Besides, this is a matter of great importance to the harem, so it is fine for you to stay."
Yixiu shook her head, "It is my fortune that the emperor values me, but I will remember the words of the empress dowager that concubines in the harem are not allowed to interfere in government affairs. I am terrified and dare not disobey."
In this way, Yinzhen no longer forced her to stay.
He just raised his hand and said, "In that case, you can go back first. I will visit you in your palace tonight."
Hearing this, Yixiu's face was filled with smiles, and she couldn't suppress her joy.
Her eyes and eyebrows were full of joy, "Then I will prepare the tea that Your Majesty likes to drink and wait for Your Majesty at any time."
After saying that, she withdrew.
The official historian of the Imperial Observatory arrived very quickly, just as Yixiu left the Yangxin Palace.
At the door, he met Su Peisheng leading the official historian of the Imperial Observatory in.
"Your servant respectfully bids farewell to Her Majesty the Queen." Su Peisheng knelt down respectfully and saluted.
However, Yixiu's eyes missed Su Peisheng and fell on Zhengshi who was kneeling on the ground.
Zhengshi raised his head slightly, glanced at Yixiu hurriedly, and then lowered his head again.
Yixiu responded calmly, "Eunuch Su, please take the people in quickly, don't let the emperor wait anxiously."
"Whoo."
When Yixiu walked out of the Yangxin Palace, she felt that the air and sunlight were fresh and warm.
Seeing her master happy, Jianqiu said quickly, "Today is not the fifteenth day of the lunar month. The emperor has said that he will come to the palace of the queen. I will definitely help the queen to prepare well."
Yixiu lowered her eyes, raised the corners of her mouth, and said nothing.
Jian Qiu added, "The Emperor and the Empress have been in love for many years, and the Emperor still cares about their old relationship."
"I have been with the emperor for many years, and I know best what the emperor likes."
The one she likes the most, of course, is her annoying elder sister.
However, there are certainly many things we can learn from my elder sister, such as her steadiness and her understanding of the rules of importance.
"Yes, I have seen that although Concubine Hua has been favored by the emperor for many years and Concubine Wan is favored by the emperor now, they are still not as fond of each other as the emperor is of the Empress."
Hearing this, Yixiu smiled and slowly exhaled, "The emperor doesn't like to interfere in politics. Concubine Hua doesn't understand, and Concubine Wan doesn't fully understand. Now the emperor has a grudge against Nian Gengyao, and Concubine Hua is already in a state of collapse. As for Concubine Wan, if the emperor likes her, he will discuss family affairs with her in common etiquette. If he doesn't like her, she will interfere in politics."
She turned the armor on her little finger and said, "Why don't you do it like me and make it flawless?"
"Your Majesty is smart." Jianqiu said with a smile, but then she thought of something and her smile faltered. "It's just that Your Majesty, Yunxiu's matter..."
"Didn't I tell you to do it? If you stay, it will be a huge hidden danger. Do you want to be dragged into it?"
When talking about this matter, Yixiu's tone was not very good.
Jianqiu naturally didn't dare to say anything more and could only lower his head in agreement.
The Queen wanted her to kill Yunxiu, but she was her relative after all, and she never thought that one day she would have to send her away with her own hands.
But now, things have come to this point, and there is nothing that can be done.
Yikun Palace.
"Xichun, the queen has ordered that Ling'er's affairs be handed over to you. The queen thinks highly of this person, so you must not make any mistakes."
Songzhi finds Xichun and explains the matter to her.
Xichun had just returned from the Ministry of Internal Affairs with her monthly allowance. When she heard this, she was stunned.
He responded subconsciously, "Yes, but why would Aunt Songzhi let me handle this matter? Fudong..."
"Fudong has to serve the queen and pay attention to the affairs of the Fourth Prince. How can she have the time to take care of this? Besides, the queen said that she values you and gives you an opportunity. If you do well, you will definitely be rewarded. I'm telling you that the queen values Ling'er very much. You must take good care of her."
In this case, Xichun could only bite the bullet and agree, "Yes, I will definitely do it."
Songzhi nodded and handed her the key. "Take it. The person is locked up in the dark room."
Xichun took the key obediently and walked towards the dark room nervously.
I looked back from time to time to see if Songzhi had gone far away.
When she saw Songzhi's figure disappear, she quickly changed her route and walked towards the path leading to the maids' room door.
Not long after she left, she saw a young eunuch walking quickly towards her.
Collided head-on with Xichun.
Xichun immediately shouted, "How can you be so blind?"
The loud voice was actually meant to cover up the little eunuch's whispers in her ears.
"Auntie ordered that Ling'er be killed quietly."
He whispered and quickly stuffed the thing in his hand into Xichun's hand.
Xichun bit her lip, her face looking somewhat conflicted and flustered.
"I'm sorry, Miss Xichun. I was blind and bumped into you."
Xichun whispered, "But what can I do now? The Imperial Concubine asked me to keep a close eye on Ling'er. If anything happens, I will be suspected."
Xichun still has some sense about this.
If anything happened to Ling'er while she was in her care, with the methods used by the Imperial Concubine, she would never let her off easily.
Maybe, he would start to suspect her...
The young eunuch shook his head, looking somewhat embarrassed, "Miss Xichun, please don't embarrass me, I am just a messenger, and you should also know that if you don't do this, what will the superiors do to you, right?"
"You...you threaten me!" Xichun widened his eyes, realized something, and became a little annoyed.
The young eunuch smiled wickedly and shook his head, "How dare I do that?" Then he said louder, "It was my fault that I bumped into the young lady. I have work to do, so I am really sorry, so I will leave first."
After saying that, he left directly.
Xichun stood where he was, tightly holding the small package handed to him by the eunuch.
She was thinking about something in a confused and numb manner.
The next second, a hand suddenly patted her shoulder heavily.
"Xichun, what are you doing standing here like an idiot?"
Xichun was so scared that she screamed subconsciously. When she turned around, she saw Fudong standing behind her.
Seeing that it was Fudong, Xichun's frightened expression recovered a little, and he stroked his chest and patted it continuously.
"It's you. You walked up behind me silently. I was really scared."
Fu Dong looked innocent, "No, I called you many times, what are you doing standing here for no reason?"
Xichun was a little disgusted and pushed her hand away, "Nothing, I have something else to do, I'm leaving first."
