Fengming Chen Palace

Chapter 179 Provocation
"Mother Qin, what's going on at Wanchun Palace recently?" In a blink of an eye, the first month was almost over, and the Empress Dowager leaned on the soft couch and asked Mother Qin.

"When we go back to the Empress Dowager, there has been no movement at the Wanchun Palace. Hearing that Lu Xiurong chanted scriptures and chanted Buddha every day, he seemed to see through the mortal world." Mother Qin will still pay attention to the news in the harem, after all, the Empress Dowager may ask about it at any time.

"See through the world of mortals?" After listening to Mother Qin's words, the queen mother raised her eyebrows, "Take a chance, go and see if she really sees through the world of mortals."

"Now, the first month is about to pass, and in March, Qi'er will implement the plan. Before March, there are some things that should be settled as soon as possible."

Don't look at this period of time, the Queen Mother seems to have calmed down, but in fact, her heart has never calmed down.

Su Qingning gave birth to the prince and was in good health. The emperor instantly had two heirs. Under such circumstances, if Xuanyuanqi really wanted to rebel, even if he won, the throne would not be secure.

Under such circumstances, one must find a way to get rid of the two princes of the emperor, and Xuanyuanqi will be able to make a logical difference if the emperor has no successor.

For Su Qingning and the child, the queen mother is bound to win, but her previous plans failed to come true.

Today's Yuxiu Palace is watched by the emperor's people, and it would be as difficult as heaven to do anything about it.

Under such circumstances, they had to find another way. The Empress Dowager's eyes fell on Lu Xiurong.

According to the Queen Mother, the second princess died of poisoning because she ate food belonging to Su Xiuyi. From New Year's Eve to now, Lu Xiurong has never been to Yuxiu Palace, and she has not even sent anyone there.

Under such circumstances, most of them hated Su Xiuyi because of it. It was heard that the relationship between the two was very good, and the vigilance of Lu Xiurong and Yuxiu Palace might be lowered.

If Lu Xiurong can be used to attack Su Xiuyi and the child, the probability of success will be higher.

With the Queen Mother's order, Mother Qin found an opportunity to come to Yongchun Palace.

Lu Xiurong was surprised by Nanny Qin's arrival, but she still tidied up and met Nanny Qin.

"Since the second princess left, the queen mother has been feeling uncomfortable. She thought about visiting Lu Xiurong in person, but she was worried that it would make her sad, so she sent the old slave here. If Master Xiurong needs anything , even if you tell the old slave, the old slave will report to the Queen Mother."

After saluting, Mother Qin peeked at Lu Xiurong, and saw that she was not in a good mood either in spirit or complexion.

"Thank you Empress Dowager for your concern, and please tell the Empress Dowager to tell her that everything is well, and please rest assured the Empress Dowager." After listening to Mother Qin's words, Lu Xiurong blessed the body in the direction of Shoukang Palace, and then spoke.

"Don't worry, Lu Xiurong, this old servant will definitely bring his words to you. Speaking of which, the first month will be over in the blink of an eye, and the second princess has been gone for almost a month."

Responding to Lu Xiurong's words, Mother Qin spoke again, "What happened on New Year's Eve is really surprising. I heard that the food that the Second Princess ate was supposed to be used by Su Xiuyi, but in the end... well, the Second Princess is so young. It's a pity at such a young age."

While talking, Mother Qin observed Lu Xiurong's reaction, and when it came to the second princess, Lu Xiurong's expression became obviously depressed.

"The second princess has gone, but Su Xiuyi gave birth to two princes. I heard that they are very healthy. By the way, I wonder if Lu Xiurong has heard a rumor?"

After the death of the second princess, Yongchun Palace was almost half-closed. She didn't pay attention to or inquire about the affairs of the palace.

"What rumor?" Mother Qin's visit to Yongchun Palace itself surprised Lu Xiurong, but now she has said a lot, including the second princess who died young, and Su Xiuyi's two children, Lu Xiurong felt a feeling of saying no. feeling out.

She always felt that Nanny Qin came to Yongchun Palace for a purpose. She said that the Queen Mother cared about herself, but knowing that she was hurt by the second princess, she repeatedly mentioned the second princess, and now she even talked about the eldest prince and the second prince. On the body, Lu Xiurong simply followed Mother Qin's words.

"I heard that a few days after Su Xiuyi gave birth, someone used the same method to poison Su Xiuyi. It was Su Xiuyi's fate, so she didn't get poisoned. It was her own aunt who got poisoned because she tested the medicine."

"It is said that it was the same poison as the second princess. In the end, Mrs. Su did not die, but was rescued. This matter, in the heart of the old slave, always feels uncomfortable. The same poison, why the second princess There is no way to recover, so when we get to Su Xiuyi's aunt, there will be a solution?"

Qin Nanny's eyes fell on Lu Xiurong's face again, and she clearly saw that Lu Xiurong's expression became ugly in an instant.

Lu Xiurong really didn't know about this matter, but now hearing Mother Qin say that, even if she felt that she had ulterior motives, Lu Xiurong felt very uncomfortable.

"Is there anything else, mama? If not, please go back, I'm a bit tired." He said coldly, Lu Xiurong left a few words, turned and walked towards the inner room.

Seeing that she had achieved her goal, Nanny Qin responded, and after bowing to her back, she left Yongchun Palace and headed back towards Shoukang Palace.

"Master, according to this slave and maidservant, then Nanny Qin is here to sow discord." After seeing off Nanny Qin, Rui'er went into the inner room, saw Lu Xiurong sitting on the soft couch with a grim expression, so she hurriedly tried to persuade her.

"Rui'er, go check it out. Is what Nanny Qin said true or false?" After ordering, Lu Xiurong reached out and rubbed the center of her brows. Since Jin'er passed away, she hasn't slept well for a long time, so Frequent headaches.

In response, Rui'er stepped back, and Aunt Wang came in from the outer room, holding a tray in her hand.

"Master, let's have a cup of hot tea." Aunt Wang was selected by Nanny Chen for Lu Xiurong. For Aunt Wang, Lu Xiurong still trusted her.

In response, Lu Xiurong picked up his cup and took a sip of tea, "You heard what you said just now, what do you think?"

In contrast, because Aunt Wang has been in the palace for a long time, she can see some things more clearly than Ruier.

"Master, this servant feels that what happened today is a bit strange." Hearing Lu Xiurong's question, Aunt Wang sorted out her thoughts before she spoke.

"How to say?" Putting down the teacup, Lu Xiurong rubbed the acupuncture points on his head and asked her again.

"This Nanny Qin is someone close to the Empress Dowager. The Second Princess is the Empress Dowager's granddaughter. The Eldest Prince and the Second Prince are the Empress Dowager's own grandsons. The Emperor's heirs are rare. Finally, there are two princes. Finally, there are successors. .”

"Under such circumstances, the queen mother should be very protective of the two princes, but judging from what Nanny Qin said, she seems to want to sow discord between you and Su Xiuyi, and make you put hatred on Su Xiuyi and the two princes. ..."
