Chapter 28 Playing
  Lin Xiaolian was shocked: "Did the young lady stop her? If Concubine Ling opened the box, wouldn't she know that we were testing her?"

"You and Qiaoxiu are at the back door. The front door is open and there are so many people watching. She won't dare to go out for a while. You can go out and tell them later that Qiaoxiu has found the real box, so she will naturally No more reason to deliver the box.”

After hearing this, Lin Xiaolian instantly felt guilty for her attitude towards Qiaoxiu just now.

Unexpectedly, Lin Zhiyu changed the subject: "You are actually right."

"She is not as simple as an ordinary consul maid to show off her identity."

"Is she someone close to the Queen?"

Hearing what Lin Zhiyu said, the guilt that Lin Xiaolian had just felt was replaced by suspicion: "But why did she do this? The young lady is not a threat to her. If she wants to arrange an informant, she should go to Zhaoyang Palace to arrange it. .”

"Of course she has no reason to do this." Lin Zhiyu raised her cherry lips slightly and smiled meaningfully, "Because Qiaoxiu is not hers at all."

Lin Xiaolian's heart, which had just been relieved, was rising again. She was pacing back and forth, and the "ta-ta-ta-ta" footsteps revealed her master's panic: "Who else could there be? There are wolves in front and tigers in the back. This palace is really waiting for you." Incredible."

After thinking for a moment, she quickly walked up to her and said with a sad face: "Miss, why don't you send a letter to the Prime Minister's Mansion to ask for mercy from the Prime Minister and let you go back to the Mansion."

Before Lin Zhiyu had time to react, Lin Xiaolian shook her head again and again: "No, no, after returning home, Aunt Zhang may not know how to embarrass the young lady! Otherwise, the young lady will pretend to be sick like last time and stay here in Weiyang Palace, never go out again!"

Seeing Lin Xiaolian's anxious look, Lin Zhiyu couldn't help it anymore and burst out laughing: "I haven't said who it is yet, why are you so anxious?"

Lin Xiaolian just stopped and waited for the next step with a puzzled look on her face.

"Qiaoxiu is not from the palace at all. She was sent by the Third Prince!"

Just when Qiaoxiu reached out to hand over the wooden box, Lin Zhiyu noticed that there were thick calluses on her hands.

People from the Ministry of Internal Affairs said before that Qiao Xiu was assigned to the imperial dining room as soon as she entered the palace. She usually did chores of preparing dishes. How could she have calluses like those of martial arts practitioners?
  "Also, the way she walks is different from ordinary people."

"How to walk?" Lin Xiaolian was confused. Everyone has two legs. What special tricks can this do?
  "The third prince has his own way of training the secret guards. The distance between them is the same every step, and when Qiao Xiu walked out just now, she also stepped on the footsteps she came in from."

"Actually, there is another more obvious clue. When Qiao Xiu stretched out his hand, he revealed the unique emblem of Prince Jin's Palace."

The secret guards are all specially trained, how could they make such a low-level mistake?
  So Qiaoxiu just made an excuse to come to see her.

Because she knew early on that there were people from Concubine Ling watching in Weiyang Palace.

"The Third Prince is really attentive and considerate to the young lady!" After finding out the truth, Lin Xiaolian completely relaxed.

While teasing Lin Zhiyu, she also secretly made up her mind to learn more from the young lady in the future and not miss any detail.

Lin Zhiyu was not interested in taking up what Lin Xiaolian said, as he had another worry.

"Now that we know Chunliu's identity, we can do what we usually do. Don't make her suspicious. Pay more attention to her movements in the future."

Afterwards, Lin Zhiyu placed all the things that Concubine Ling had given her on the table.

"Miss, what is this?"

"Concubine Ling used that letter as a threat to let me act in a play with her." Lin Zhiyu told Lin Xiaolian everything that happened in Zhaoyang Palace.

When Concubine Ling opened the beauty balm, she smelled a familiar aroma. It was the balm Wei Shuyi gave her before, but in this life, it was sent to Lin Minghua.

She still holds a grudge about the marriage change, and is probably planning to use Wei Shuyi's help to sabotage her marriage to the third prince.

But Jiang Wanning is not a fuel-efficient lamp either.

"There is indeed nothing wrong with the ointment she gave. The problem lies in the bottle of ointment. This ointment is very strong. If people with allergies use it, it will only get worse."

In her last life, she saw Jiang Wanning use the same method to ruin Xu Jiu'er's face. Fortunately, the treatment was timely, but as soon as the weather turned cold, she would become allergic and red. "But how did Concubine Ling know that the beauty cream was poisonous? And I think Concubine Shuyi looks very kind-hearted and doesn't look like someone who would do such a thing."

Lin Xiaolian's words awakened Lin Zhiyu.

From beginning to end, she ignored one of the most critical issues.

Wei Shuyi, whose side is she on?

Regarding the rumor, Yunzhu was identified by Ruyi, the palace maid next to her. At first glance, he seemed to be on Lin Minghua's side.

After all, Yunzhu belongs to Jiang Wanning, and she knows how to protect herself wisely. How could she not know that Wei Shuyi is such an observant person?
  So, what is the purpose behind Wei Shuyi’s gift of beauty cream?
  In other words, what exactly does the person hiding behind Wei Shuyi want to do?
  She didn't go into detail about the previous life, she was just estranged from Wei Shuyi.

Now that I think about it, I'm afraid there is still another way to go.

"Xiao Lian, I have to trouble you to go to Kunning Palace and deliver a message for me."

Lin Xiaolian didn't know why.

"Since they want to use me as a pawn, I don't mind playing tricks with them and watching a dog-eat-dog show."

Lin Zhiyu smiled slyly.

The next day.

"Where's the imperial doctor? Call the imperial doctor! The girl's face hurts so much!"

Lin Xiaolian shouted outside and brought ice cubes to Lin Zhiyu to apply ice. Weiyang Palace was in chaos.

Chunliu walked in with a large bucket of ice and asked curiously: "Did the big girl use something that shouldn't be used? She is so allergic."

"Is there anything I shouldn't use?"

Lin Xiaolian hurriedly dipped the handkerchief into the melted ice water and applied it on Lin Zhiyu without stopping. Chunliu peeked through the gap in the bed curtain and saw that Lin Zhiyu's whole face was red and swollen. , it is really unsightly.

"Miss, she always uses things she brings from home. There must be something wrong with the cream given by the Queen." Lin Xiaolian seemed to mention it unintentionally.

Chunliu had an idea in his mind, so he didn't ask any more questions, opened the door and walked out.

"There doesn't seem to be enough ice in the palace. I'll go to the inner management office to get some more."

No one had any doubts. Only then did Chunliu walk out of Weiyang Palace with confidence. When no one was passing by, he turned a corner and headed towards Zhaohua Palace.

"Concubine Ling, there is already a commotion at Weiyang Palace."

"Did you see clearly?" Jiang Wanning concentrated on playing with the newly installed potted plants.

"My slave can see clearly that the girl's whole face is consistent with the symptoms of the cream."

Chunliu told everything about what he had just seen.

"After all, she is the queen's biological sister. As the head of the four concubines, I naturally cannot sit idly by."

Jiang Wanning cut off the slightly yellowed leaves with a "click" without feeling any distress.

The corners of his mouth were raised, and his eyes were full of pride.

"Yun Zhu, go to the Imperial Hospital and call Imperial Physician Cheng. I want to go there in person to join in the fun."
