Reborn Lady's Scheming

Chapter 369

With surprised eyes, Tong Shuang pulled Zhihuan into a corner: "Sister Zhihuan, what do you mean by what you said, does that mean that Mrs. Qiong is not a woman of good background?"

Knowing that she made a slip of the tongue, Zhihuan quickly covered Tong Shuang's mouth, and said angrily, "Okay, stop talking."

"Okay, I won't talk anymore." Tong Shuang said only after Zhihuan put down her hand.

Zhihuan looked at Tong Shuang suspiciously: "Why are you asking so many questions suddenly today?"

"Hey, let me tell the truth. Seeing that sister Zhihuan is so popular with your mother, I also want to ask for advice!" Tong Shuang looked like you could tell.

Zhihuan had no doubts about such an explanation.Now she is more and more favored by Concubine De, and she seems to be the most prestigious maid in Concubine De's palace.It's normal for Tong Shuang to try to please her like this.

"Hmph, do you think it's easy to be the empress's maid of honor? But you have to share your worries for the empress all the time!" Zhihuan looked proud.

Tong Shuang asked: "Then I would like to ask Sister Zhihuan, how can I share my worries for the empress?"

"Why do I tell you, it's not good!" Zhihuan fell silent.

Tong Shuang hastily took out an exquisite bag from her sleeve, and handed it to Zhihuan: "This thing, give it to sister Zhihuan!"

Zhihuan opened it and saw that there were a few pearls, and their appearance was not bad, she was overjoyed and said, "It's hard for you to have a heart."

"Sister Zhihuan likes it as long as she likes it. It's just that my sister is favored now, don't forget about me!" Tong Shuang smiled flatteringly.

"Then do you know why the empress likes me the most recently?" Zhihuan put off a trick first.Then, he signaled Tong Shuang to guess with his eyes.

Tong Shuang thought for a while, and guessed: "Is it because of Mrs. Qionggui? Recently, I see that sister Zhihuan always goes to Qinfang Palace. Is it because Mrs. Qiong told the benefits of my sister in front of the empress?"

"Then you are very wrong! I will not let Qionggui speak well for me, or it will have the opposite effect." Zhihuan hated Qionggui the most, and she couldn't help being a little angry when she heard such speculation.

"Oh? What is that?" Tong Shuang was puzzled, exploring with his eyes, as if he wanted to know what the other party was thinking.

Zhihuan smiled and said: "That's because, the empress needs to know Qionggui's movements, do you understand?"

"Huh?" Tong Shuang was confused.

Zhihuan smiled mysteriously: "This matter can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words. You go back and think about it slowly, and then talk about it after you have figured it out."

"Okay, thank you sister Zhihuan." Tong Shuang had no choice but to walk away.

Zhihuan slowly watched Tong Shuang leave.She smiled strangely in her heart, she had long been unhappy with Mrs. Qiong, and it would be good if Tong Shuang could do some damage.The most important thing is that what happens at that time has nothing to do with her.

On Tong Shuang's side, he had obviously realized something.For several days, he used excuses to go to Qinfang Palace with Zhihuan, and gradually got to know the situation around Qinfang Palace.

Today, the night is already very deep.

Tong Shuang quietly left her room and walked outside.He was considered a first-class master in martial arts in Defei Palace, so it only took a moment to go to Qinfang Palace.

Yes, after Zhihuan's deliberate reminder, he squatted in the corner of the backyard of Qinfang Palace every night.What for?Of course I was looking for some clues.

There were no clues for several days in a row, which made Tong Shuang feel a little slack.However, he glanced casually, but saw a scene that was different from usual.

A white figure stood gracefully in the middle of the yard.And after a while, there was another black shadow standing next to that white shadow.Immediately afterwards, the two shadows seemed to overlap.

Tong looked straight at the past with both eyes, wishing he could see through the wall.

Just as he was watching all this intently, the white shadow turned his head quickly.

Tong Shuang was startled, and hurried away.After waiting for a while, he walked back slowly and continued to observe everything in front of him.

Prince Xuanyuanming was hugging Yingying and talking about love, suddenly Yingying turned her head inadvertently, which made Xuanyuanming a little puzzled; "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, it's just a little cold." In the dark night, Yingying couldn't see the other person's expression, so her expression was also extremely cold.After all, pleasing someone who doesn't want to be close to him for a long time is quite tiring.

Xuanyuan Ming smiled maliciously: "If it's cold, then I'll hold you tighter."

As he said that, Xuanyuanming's big hands unscrupulously burrowed into Yingying's clothes.Yingying's whole face was flushed, and she said, "Your Highness, Yingying is not feeling right now."

Xuanyuan Ming still cared a little about Yingying, seeing that Yingying's voice was much lower, he quickly stopped and said, "Yingying, what's wrong with you?"

"Maybe I caught a cold, and my heart has been feeling tight." Yingying explained.

Xuanyuanming originally wanted to put his clothes on Yingying, but suddenly found that he couldn't, because Yingying was no longer the woman he was supposed to be, so naturally she couldn't wear his clothes openly.

Although he was very reluctant, Xuanyuan Ming still said considerately: "Forget it, Yingying, you can go back. I will come to see you again in two days."

"Your Highness, I'll go in first." Yingying breathed a sigh of relief, turned and left without hesitation.

After watching Yingying go in, Xuanyuanming said slowly: "Yingying, you are mine. When I regain this country, I will definitely not let you be wronged again."

Here, after Yingying entered the room, Huanxi stood up in surprise: "Girl, you're back so soon? Where's the prince?"

However, when she saw Yingying's downcast expression, Huanxi knew something was wrong.

Yingying said wearily: "Huanxi, when will this kind of life end? I count the days every day, never thinking that one day I will become like this."

Huanxi pulled Yingying distressedly, and after thinking about it, this was indeed the case.From the beginning to the end, the girl has been following a man she doesn't like, and is forced to do one thing after another that she doesn't like to do.

"Sometimes, I'm thinking, what's the trouble with me sneaking up to meet him every night. I'd rather be broken into our business, so that I'm relieved, and the prince is finished." Yingying's eyes flashed cruelty. color.

Hearing it happily, she was startled by Yingying's words again: "Girl, how could you have such an idea! If you really want to do this, you will be finished!"

"The way I am now, isn't it the end?" Yingying looked at Huanxi desolately.

Huanxi also felt an inexplicable sense of despair: "No way, girl! You must not think like this, dying is better than living, isn't it?"

"Huanxi, in the end, only you are really good for me." Yingying's hand slowly stroked Huanxi's hair.

"No, girl, don't scare the slaves. You wouldn't do that, would you?" Huanxi burst into tears.

Seeing Huanxi's appearance, Yingying had to say quickly: "Okay, Huanxi, I'm just joking, how could I really die!"

"That girl, don't scare Huanxi either! Huanxi will take everything you say to be true!" Huanxi stopped crying, but for some reason, her heart felt very uncomfortable.

What they didn't know was that Tong Shuang could see clearly what happened at night.The next day, he found a chance to meet Eunuch Xu alone.

"You mean, Mr. Qiong is having an affair with the crown prince?" Eunuch Xu was quite shocked when he heard the news.If all this is true, it would be a simple matter to rescue Princess Jing.

Tong Shuang nodded: "I've been investigating this matter for the past few days, and I didn't see it until last night. This matter is of great importance. Naturally, I came to tell my father-in-law only after I was very sure."

Eunuch Xu thought for a long time before he suddenly realized: "No wonder noble Qiong listened to Concubine De so much. Concubine De asked her to deal with Concubine Cui, but she just went to deal with Concubine Cui without saying a word. It turns out that she has something in Concubine De's hands!"

"So, Empress Defei already knew about it?" Tong Shuang didn't fully react for a while.

"Nonsense, if Empress Concubine De didn't know, how could she push Mr. Qiong to the emperor. Don't tell anyone about this right now." Eunuch Xu ordered.

"Okay, does Eunuch Xu have any other orders?" Although Tong Shuang didn't know what Eunuch Xu was going to do, he still agreed.

"Well, you continue to investigate this matter. If you encounter such a situation next time, please inform me immediately. At that time, as long as you find a way to let the emperor know about this matter, Qiong Guiren will be finished. And her so-called crime, also They will all be exposed." Eunuch Xu said after thinking about it.

"Okay, then after I go back, I will continue to investigate. As long as I find them together, I will notify the father-in-law." Tong Shuang said.

"No, you have to notify Zhihuan and Empress Defei first." Eunuch Xu said.

"Why?"

"Neither of us are suitable to expose this adultery, but Concubine De is suitable. If she comes forward, the emperor can easily notice the relationship between Lady Qiong and the prince. But if we come forward, the emperor will only doubt us."

After all, Eunuch Xu is an old man in the palace, so he knows that the emperor has a suspicious personality.Neither he nor Tong Shuang were eunuchs of Qinfang Palace, and they had no position involved.

But Concubine De is different. She is the most powerful woman in the harem, and there are many ways for the emperor to notice.

"Will Concubine De be willing?" Tong Shuangwei wondered, "As far as I know, nobleman Qiong listens to Concubine De the most, and Concubine De is willing to give up this flag?"

"Just tell her that if she doesn't expose Qionggui, then Qionggui's identity will also be exposed. This is a crime of deceiving the emperor. Does she dare to take this risk?"

Jiang is still old and spicy. Eunuch Xu is many times better than Tong Shuang in handling these matters.

The two continued to chat until they finally reached an agreement.

"Elder-in-law is really clever. If this is the case, we can still pull Concubine De into the same boat." Tong Shuang couldn't help giving a thumbs up.

Eunuch Xu said disapprovingly, "It's not that I'm smart, but that you're too young."

"Yes."

"Everything is explained, you go back first."
