Chapter 93

Concubine Dong was 'grounded', and the happiest thing was Lin Jieyu.

Even though the food was not as delicious as before, she still ate half a bowl more.

"Qiuyue, in this harem, is there anyone I can use?" In the past, Lin Jieyu was Concubine Lin, who controlled everything in the harem, aloof.

Although she is demoted now, but the past is intertwined, and there are always some connections.

She tried it before, but it didn't work. The queen is too smart. She knew that with her current situation, it would be impossible to fight the queen again.

In addition, Yingchun's death hit her hard, so she settled down and kept a low schedule.

However, Concubine Dong sent someone to make trouble every now and then. She endured it all the time, looking for opportunities.

Just because she can't beat the queen doesn't mean she can't beat Concubine Dong. She and Concubine Dong have known each other for many years, and they know each other's lifeline very well.

Now, Concubine Dong pretended to be sick and was grounded. Lin Jieyu felt that the opportunity had come.

"Master, what are you going to do?" Qiuyue was a little worried. There were still connections in the palace, but that was all that was left.

In her opinion, those relationships are not easy to use, otherwise it will be difficult to handle anything in the future.

"It's just an eye for an eye." Hearing Qiuyue's question, Lin Jieyu smiled a little, "Yingchun can't die in vain."

Lin Jieyu thought, even if she couldn't do anything to Concubine Dong, it would be good to find a way to cut off one of her wings.

By her side, Tourmaline and Pearl are the people she trusts the most. In comparison, Tourmaline is smarter. If she can find a way to get rid of Tourmaline, that would be great.

As for how to get rid of it... need a long-term plan.

"Master, the Chinese New Year is coming soon. All affairs in the harem are now handled by the Empress. If something happens at this time, I'm afraid you will be blamed."

Qiuyue disagreed with the master's thoughts. For her, it is very rare for her to live in peace now.

"Besides, the queen mother is still in the palace, no matter what we do, we will be found out, master, think twice!"

Kneeling on the ground, Qiuyue persuaded, Lin Jieyu sat on the chair, frowning when she saw her like this.

"What are you doing? Get up quickly." Since Yingchun died, she rarely made Qiuyue kneel down.

"Master, please promise your servant, let's be safe and sound, and stop thinking about those things that shouldn't be thought about."

Qiuyue didn't move, she was still persuading, Lin Jieyu stared at her and didn't speak for a long time.

"Qiuyue, I'm not reconciled, I can't fight the queen, so I won't fight anymore, but Yingchun's revenge, I have to avenge it, get up quickly."

Lin Jieyu insisted, she felt that now is the best opportunity.

Qiuyue has followed Lin Jieyu since she was a child, and she knows her character well. She knows that no matter how much she persuades her, it will be useless.

"Just this time, if it doesn't work, then it won't work, okay?" After hesitating for a moment, Qiuyue spoke again. Lin Jieyu held her arm and nodded solemnly.

Sighing in her heart, Qiuyue got up, listened to the master's detailed talk, and after she finished explaining, Qiuyue left Qingqiu Pavilion.

During the recent period, Concubine Dong has been busy with the palace banquet, and now she is grounded again, so she can't take care of her for the time being, so she is still safe.

After Qiuyue left, Lin Jieyu leaned on the chair and sighed deeply. She thought of many things in the past, and regret flowed in her heart.

Every year on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, it is a small year for the people. On this day, the emperor will order to seal the seal, and it will not be reopened until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

During this period of time, no matter whether it is the emperor or the ministers in the court, they can rest. If it is not necessary or urgent, it will be postponed until the next year.

Gu Jinzhi leaned on the soft bed, reading a book leisurely, thanks to Concubine Dong's blessing, the palace banquet for New Year's Eve has already been arranged.

In addition, with Jiang Xiuyi here, Gu Jinzhi has nothing to worry about. Concubine Dong's 'illness' has made her easier.

Zhou Jing sat on the other side of the slump, holding a book in his hand. Today is already the 27th of the twelfth lunar month, because there is no thirty this year, so the day after tomorrow is New Year's Eve.

After the young year, he spent most of his time in Fengyang Palace, and occasionally got together with King Rui, and the two brothers chatted for a whole day.

From time to time, someone would look up and look at each other.

Probably because of the tacit understanding between husband and wife, whenever one of them raised his head, the other would do the same, so they looked at each other and smiled, very warm.

However, such warmth could not last forever.

Hongxiu came in from outside the hall with a chill in her body, she didn't dare to get too close, for fear of the chill on her body, she would rush to the emperor and her master.

"What's the matter?" Like Qingluan, Hongxiu is also steady, but judging by her current expression, it doesn't seem to be a trivial matter.

Gu Jinzhi put down the book in his hand, and asked, Zhou Jing was still watching, what Hongxiu could tell back was nothing more than the affairs of the harem, these were the empress's duties, and he didn't need to worry about them.

Besides, with Jin here, no matter what it is, he can handle it very well.

Thinking like this, Zhou Jing changed his posture and turned a page.

"Mistress Qi, the tourmaline in Yichun Palace was almost killed by others, but she was rescued now, and she clamored that it was Lin Jieyu who wanted to kill her."

Seeing that the Chinese New Year was coming, Hong Xiu felt very unhappy when something like this happened suddenly.

"Yichun Palace? Concubine Dong's person?" Gu Jinzhi thought for a while after listening to Hongxiu, "Where did you find it?"

"Even in the pond where Yingchun was drowned back then, it was so cold today. The person who did it probably had a guilty conscience. He was thrown into the pond before he was killed."

"The pond froze. After the tourmaline fell, she passed out. Someone happened to come over. The person who did it didn't look carefully, so she ran away in a hurry."

"The person who found the tourmaline sent her back to Yichun Palace. Concubine Dong asked someone to hire an imperial physician, so that tourmaline saved her life."

"I heard that after waking up, she said that Lin Jieyu was going to kill her. Concubine Dong quit at that time and wanted to see you, but she is 'recovering from illness', so..."

Hongxiu didn't continue to say the following words, but Gu Jinzhi understood what she meant.

The Empress Dowager's order cannot come out until Concubine Dong's 'illness' is completely cured. As for when she will recover, it depends on the Empress Dowager's will.

With the Empress Dowager around, even if Concubine Dong is out of the sky, she will only dare to stay in Yichun Palace and dare not come out.

"Then what's going on, have you checked?" Gu Jinzhi knew that there was an unresolved knot between Concubine Dong and Lin Jieyu.

Yingchun, who was next to Lin Jieyu back then, died inexplicably, probably because of Concubine Dong's handwriting.

It's just that the evidence has been destroyed, so those few people know this matter well.

Now that Concubine Dong is 'ill', Lin Jieyu naturally refuses to let go of this opportunity. It is quite possible that she sent someone to attack Bixi.

"My servant sent someone to investigate. The hands and feet of the other party are quite clean. In addition, the pond is actually quite remote. If it weren't for the tourmaline's fate, I would probably have to roll it up and send it out of the palace now..."
