Queen is fearless

Chapter 201
"Mother, after Qingluan returned to Fengyang Palace, she was punished by the queen to kneel down." Walking in from outside the palace, Dongqing reported the news she had just received to Wen Xiuyuan.

"Your Majesty, I don't quite understand, since you met Qingluan on the path, why do you keep testing her?"

After reporting back, Dongqing asked out the doubts in her heart, and she couldn't figure out what the master was thinking.

"After all, Qingluan was brought in by the queen from outside the palace, who knows if this is a trap set by the queen?"

"Looking at it now, it seems that Ben Gong is too worried. Everyone says that the queen is very smart, but that's all."

With a cold snort, Wen Xiuyuan's eyes flashed that he must win, "Smart people should be allowed to sit in this middle palace seat."

"Keep an eye on the Qingqiu Pavilion, the spices can't be broken." She specially arranged things for Lin Jieyu, which can be added to the spices. The days are all calculated, and it happens to happen during the Chinese New Year.

The smile on Wen Xiuyuan's face deepened at the thought of the excitement that would be there.

After receiving the order, Dongqing bowed and exited the hall.

"I really don't know, what kind of medicine is sold in Wen Xiuyuan's gourd?"

In Zhaochun Palace, Jiang Zhaohua put down the list in his hand and frowned.

During this time, in addition to sending people to watch Qingqiu Pavilion, she also sent people to watch Zhongcui Palace.

But no matter whether it is Qingqiu Pavilion or Zhongcui Palace, there is no movement.

I heard that Wen Xiuyuan went to Fengyang Palace to pay her respects to the empress, but this is no big deal, as long as anyone with a bit of brain would not do anything blatantly.

Jiang Zhaohua also heard about Qingluan being punished to kneel. She knew that there must be a reason for the queen to behave like this.

She wanted to visit the queen, but was worried about ruining the empress' arrangements. Through Qingluan, she knew that the empress was making arrangements.

It's just that she doesn't know when to close the net.

Seeing that the Chinese New Year is coming, the Queen does not need to worry about the matters in the harem, she will arrange them.

But Wen Xiuyuan was always like a thorn in her heart.

During her contact with Wen Xiuyuan, she overturned her inner thoughts several times.

Now, she is sure that Wen Xiuyuan is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and even more difficult to deal with than Concubine Dong.

Speaking of Concubine Dong, on the day of the young year, there was news from Yongchun Palace that Concubine Dong was arguing to see the emperor.

Every year from the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month of the new year, the court will seal it.

During this period, unless something is particularly urgent, it will be moved to a later year to deal with it.

Generally speaking, important matters will be dealt with before the year, so there will not be too many things during the sealing period.

For those who come and go small, the emperor can handle it with his private seal or signature.

Concubine Dong's noise did not invite the emperor, and the emperor still kept his previous attitude, confining Concubine Dong to Yongchun Palace.

Without instructions, she was not allowed to leave Yongchun Palace, and she was not allowed to contact Dong's family members, and she was not allowed to send in news from outside.

Probably, apart from Lin Jieyu's note, there is nothing else that can be sent to Yongchun Palace.

Jiang Zhaohua heard that in the past half month, Lin Jieyu seemed to have lost interest in Concubine Qidong, and never sent a note to Yongchun Palace.

She guessed that it should be something with Wen Xiuyuan that affected her mood. Although nothing happened, there must be something between her and Wen Xiuyuan.

What Jiang Zhaohua didn't know was that Lin Jieyu's spirit had been in a trance for the past few days.

Occasionally, she seemed to see Concubine Dong appearing in front of her, baring her teeth and claws.

Or, she saw the past, those dead people surrounded her and pointed at her.

"Master, how about asking an imperial physician to show you?" Qiuyue was by Lin Jieyu's side, and Qiuyue could see her changes most clearly.

"It's okay, I guess it's because I haven't slept well these days, that's why it's like this, you add more incense, I'll go to sleep for a while."

I didn't sleep well last night. I had a dream all night. After waking up, I felt a little dazed, as if I saw the dead Yingchun.

But she knew that Yingchun was dead, so it was impossible to appear in front of her.

After receiving the order, Qiuyue brought the incense and put it in the incense burner. The master and the servant did not know that doing so would only make Lin Jieyu's situation worse.

This year's New Year's Eve palace banquet, Lin Jieyu was unable to participate, she was no longer Concubine Lin, but just Jieyu.

In the harem, many people wanted to participate in the palace banquet, but they didn't want to participate, so they could participate.

Seeing that Lin Jieyu closed her eyes and seemed to be asleep, Qiuyue exited the inner room and yawned.

Recently, she hasn't been resting well, perhaps because of Wen Xiuyuan's threat, the master specially ordered her not to sleep with him in the inner room.

At night, she does not need to watch the night, so she is only with the master during the day, and at night, she can go to the next room to rest.

"Your Majesty, the things you have configured have already taken effect." Dongqing, who secretly went to check, reported Lin Jieyu's situation to Wen Xiuyuan.

"It's just that, because Qiuyue doesn't live with Lin Jieyu, the influence is not too great."

Although it was affected, it was much worse than Lin Jieyu's symptoms.

"It's okay, if we continue, it will be a matter of time." Neither Lin Jieyu nor Qiuyue can let them live in the end.

It is most suitable to be used as a chess piece, and it can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone...

"It's almost Chinese New Year, keep an eye on it, but don't let Jiang Zhaohua and the queen find out, by the way... take a look at what Concubine Xia is doing recently? It seems to be calm."

Wen Xiuyuan was very impressed with Concubine Xia Gui, after all, she was from the same batch of beautiful women who entered the palace, and she was a fool.

"This servant has long guessed that the empress will ask Concubine Xia, but that lady has done something extraordinary."

Reporting the news to Wen Xiuyuan, Dongqing only felt that Concubine Xia Gui was really stupid.

It's been tampered with, but it's not clean. If you really check it, you'll be right.

"Oh? Is there such a thing? She's not such an idiot, but... Her handwriting has played a role?"

It is far from enough to just do tricks, you must ensure that the tricks you do can play a role, otherwise it will only be regarded as a waste of effort.

"This... this servant hasn't found a suitable opportunity yet, so please give me a chance."

If you want to know whether it is successful, you must go to Fengyang Palace in person.

"Don't you have a pair of luminous pearls? Send them to the queen, and say that if you want convenience at night, you can use luminous pearls to illuminate them."

After thinking about it, Wen Xiuyuan ordered that although the pair of night pearls were brought in from her natal family, they were of no use to her.

But I heard that the empress often wakes up at night recently, after all, it is a month old, it is inevitable that there will be discomfort or leg cramps.

After receiving the order, Dongqing found Ye Mingzhu and took her to Fengyang Palace.

Right now, Concubine Lian Gui is talking to Gu Jinzhi in Fengyang Palace...
