Chapter 20
Zhou Zijin's words were like planting a seed in Dong Linglong's heart. After returning home, the more she thought about it, the faster the seed would grow.
In the Dong family, women are pawns used for trading.The more useful, the higher the negotiated price.
Her elder sister was married to King Xuan, and her status was honorable, and the Grand Master's Mansion also took advantage of this relationship to further consolidate its status.
What Dong Linglong envied most was her sister.
Since she was a child, her elder sister was smarter than her and knew how to please her father, so even in a patriarchal place like Dong Mansion, her life was much easier than her own.
She can't decide her own marriage, and who she will marry in the end depends on her father.Therefore, she must be a useful chess piece, only in this way, will she not be abandoned by her father.
【If you tell your father, he will definitely not agree.But if you secretly hint at Zhou Zijin...]
Dong Chaoyuan's heart is thinner than a needle, and he will think twice about any risky things, and never take risks.If Dong Linglong told him Zhou Zijin's words, he would definitely not agree.
Because he doesn't trust Zhou Zijin.
But for Dong Linglong, this matter does not actually involve trust.Zhou Zijin is now a doll in her palm, she will be there whenever she is called, and she will never refuse!
If something like this happens next time, she can secretly hint to Zhou Zijin that if she succeeds, she can sell herself well in front of her father.
If it fails... Father doesn't know anyway, does he?
Just as Dong Linglong knew Zhou Zijin well, Zhou Zijin knew her good sister well.
Dong Linglong wanted to replace her sister's position in Grand Master Dong's heart, so she couldn't refuse such a temptation.
The more greedy a person is, the easier it is to show his feet.
If she wanted to catch Grand Master Dong, she could only start with Dong Linglong!
"Empress, this is the clay figurine you wanted last time. The servant sent someone to buy it from outside." Xin Yi walked in with a smile. She held several lifelike clay figurines in her hand, with colors painted on them. Very festive.
On the way back to the palace, Zhou Zijin casually mentioned a clay figurine he played with when he was a child when he was entering the city, and the emperor gave permission for people from Changle Palace to go out and buy it.
This kind of preference is unique in the entire harem!
Zhou Zijin happily took over the clay figurine, "It's really well done, it's exactly like the ones I saw when I was a child."
Xin Yi took a look, and the other court ladies were waiting inside, Zhou Zijin looked at the clay figurine over and over, as if he cherished it very much.
So she said with a smile: "The servants and servants will leave first, so as not to disturb the queen's elegant mood."
Zhou Zijin nodded, and bluntly said that he was also tired, and he would rest after seeing the clay figurines later, and he didn't have to come in to serve unless he was ordered.
Xin Yi quickly said yes, and then led the people back out.
"Sister Xin Yi, the empress doesn't seem to like being served by others recently, is it because we are not doing well?" Yulan asked suspiciously.
Recently, the empress went to bed early and got up early. She was either in the study or taking a nap when she had nothing to do. Throughout the day, she seldom ordered them around.
If you are a slave, if you don't get yelled at, you will feel a sense of crisis.I always worry about whether I haven't done a good job, and I'm getting bored with my master.
Xin Yi smiled and nodded at her, "Don't think too much, the lady has been writing quietly recently, she just doesn't like being disturbed by others."
Yulan suddenly realized, "So that's how it is! It's good that your mother doesn't bother us!"
She usually has quick hands and feet, and she speaks outspokenly, so she said whatever came to her mind.Although the other court ladies did not ask, they actually had the same doubts in their hearts.
Now that I heard Xin Yi say that, I felt relieved.
Although Zhou Zijin didn't allow anyone to serve her, these court ladies didn't dare to go too far, and all stood outside waiting, lest Zhou Zijin should have any needs and could not be called.
Yulan stood a little bored, when she looked out, she saw the maids cleaning the outer hall, talking and laughing together.And the maid brought over from Hengyi Bureau fell behind them, very out of place.
"Sister Xin Yi, why is that girl from the Hengyi Bureau assigned to our Changle Palace?" Yulan lowered her voice and whispered.
Xin Yi glanced at her, then looked outside, and said lightly, "When you come, you are all from Changle Palace. Everyone is the same master. What's the reason?"
It's not that she doesn't know that Song Yu was transferred from Hengyi Bureau, and these people have opinions in their hearts.
After all, the maids who were able to enter the Changle Palace back then were all selected from the best, especially the personal maids of the Empress Dowager, who were trained by the empress dowager herself.
Everyone is proud of being able to serve in the Changle Palace. How can they be convinced when a sinful slave Song Xuan suddenly comes?
Yulan was dissatisfied, "But sister Xin Yi, I'm not very peaceful when I look at this Song of Prey."
Xin Yi smiled and asked, "Oh? Where is the restlessness?"
Now Yulan was excited, and said quickly: "The night before yesterday, I was thirsty and couldn't sleep, and there was no water in the house, so I went out to find water to drink. Who knows that I saw Song of Prey sneaking out, It takes about a stick of incense to come and go, and I don't know what to do!"
At that time, it was already midnight. After Yulan woke up from thirst, she suddenly saw a figure outside and thought she had run into a ghost!
Later, she couldn't let go of this matter, and often observed Song Prey secretly, and felt that she was weird.
She then told Xin Yi a few things that she found strange afterwards.At first, Xin Yi didn't pay much attention to it, he only thought that it was Song Yu who was pushed out, so he didn't quite fit in with the group.
But when I heard it a few times later, I also felt strange.
【No, I have to report this to the empress! 】
Just at this time, Zhou Zijin's voice came from the room, calling Xin Yi in.She asked Yulan to stay outside, and then quickly entered the house.
"Miss?"
When Xin Yi entered, Zhou Zijin was sitting at the table, resting his forehead with his hands, wondering what he was thinking.
In front of her, there were a few clay figurines just now, but the difference was that the stomachs of those clay figurines were all opened, and the white paper inside was scattered all over the table.
This is General Wu Mu's reply letter to the empress. In order to hide it from others, he deliberately hid it inside these clay figurines and brought it in.
Looking at the expression of the empress, could it be that the news is not good?
"Your Majesty, what happened?" Xin Yi was a little worried. If possible, she would rather share all of Empress Empress' worries on herself than see Empress Dowager in such a depressed state.
Zhou Zijin raised his head and forced a smile, "It's nothing, it's just a little different from what I expected."
Even though she was mentally prepared, she still didn't expect that people's hearts could be hidden to such an extent.
Every time it seems to remind her - how stupid she was in her previous life!
