Cannon Fodder Strategy
The deposed imperial concubine (twenty-seven)
"Sister, she slept soundly." Concubine Xian couldn't help complaining when she saw this scene.
Lily's words yesterday kept her awake all night, but she seemed like nothing was wrong. After Xian Fei finished speaking, she sat down politely and Huayi brought tea. After Lily had finished tidying up, she dressed up. The palace maid received the reward and left, leaving only two confidants in the Xianfu Palace. Lily took a bowl of healthy Tremella soup and took a sip: "Why are you here so early?"
At this time, Concubine Xian probably didn't even return to her own palace after paying her respects, but ran directly to her.
"To be honest with you sister, I couldn't sleep last night. Please let me know what's going on."
Concubine Xian didn't have the intention to beat around the bush at the moment, so she couldn't help but leaned forward, stretched out her hand to hold the back of Lily's hand, and asked.
"What's going on? I guess that my sister has already figured it out, so why bother asking me about it?" Lily looked at Concubine Xian like this, her eyes were covered with thick powder, but she couldn't hide her exhaustion. His expression showed that he had not slept well last night. She drank the Tremella soup in the bowl in an orderly manner. Concubine Xian could no longer sit still. Lily glared at her, took the tea, rinsed her mouth, touched her lips with a handkerchief, and waited for the palace servant to put the things in her mouth. After taking it away, he sighed: "What do you want to ask?"
"Sister, is there any connection between the balm and the Emperor?"
She asked directly. When Shiqing heard this, her body stiffened. Lily had a smile on her face, but her eyes were a little cold: "I also hope that there is no connection, but now it seems that it is not the case."
"Then Queen Mother..." Concubine Xian looked hard to say. Lily laughed after hearing this: "How is the Queen Mother? Does the Queen Mother like plum blossom-scented ointment? Do you know who killed Mu Bei in this palace?"
It was impossible for Lily to talk about this without reason. Concubine Xian was so confused that she shook her head in panic.
"Died at the hands of the Queen Mother." Lily adjusted her posture and said these words. Concubine Xian bit her lips tightly.
"You must have asked about the balm when you came here today. An Xue's presence at bedside must have something to do with it, right?"
Otherwise, Concubine Xian would not have asked this as soon as she arrived. Concubine Xian fell silent after hearing this, and Lily sneered: "Empress Dowager Lu killed Mu Bei and bribed An Xue. I'm afraid she lured An Xue to betray you and steal your veil with some benefits. Throw it in the imperial garden." Empress Dowager Lu's move was not necessarily to frame Xian Fei, but probably just to muddy the waters. She had calculated that Zhou Baihe would ascend the throne first as Emperor Yongming and not be granted the title of empress, so she was already very disappointed. She also killed her son and plunged her into despair. At this time, Emperor Yongming demoted her status again, which was probably a huge blow to Zhou Baihe.
In anger, sadness and panic, people need an outlet to vent their emotions. At this time, if Concubine Xian is also involved in this matter. Invisibly, this relieved Queen Mother Lu of some of Zhou Lily's pressure, so Queen Mother Lu dragged Concubine Xian into the water.
Empress Dowager Lu's method of scheming Liang Mubei is not particularly clever, but she is very good at calculating people's hearts. Lily Zhou in the plot is just as she imagined, like a son, but she has fallen out of favor, and seeing hope turning into despair, she is like a mad dog It bites people and eventually dies miserably.
"But..." When Concubine Xian heard this, her throat became increasingly horribly dry. She coughed twice: "But what reason does the Queen Mother have..."
"What's the reason? It's just to remove obstacles so that she can make way for her son in the future." Although Concubine Xian had already had this suspicion early on, she was still trembling with horror when she heard Lily admit it.
Seeing that she still didn't believe it, Lily picked up the dried fruits on the plate and put them into her mouth. After chewing twice, he wiped his hands with the handkerchief: "Why are you grounded this time? It's just because I almost fell on the Queen Mother and almost caused her..." It was just a miscarriage!
Lily didn't say the next few words. But Concubine Xian already knew what was going on. Her face was as golden as paper, "Sister..."
"Do you think you can live alone if something happens to me? Is it an accident that you became the concubine? Since the Yungui people are used by the Queen Mother, the child in Liu Wanyi's belly that day and the slap of the concubine were probably all planned by her. In. Just wait and see, Liu Wanyi has lost favor now, and without her children, she is nothing more than a useless person. I am afraid that Concubine De, I, and you will all be in bad luck, and the best is yet to come!"
These words sounded like a curse. Concubine Xian felt that her whole head was empty and top-heavy. She heard Lily's words, but she seemed not to hear anything clearly.
"So you have taken care of Jiang Cainu's affairs for me. Sister Xianfei is a smart person and knows what to do."
When she came out of Xianfu Palace, Concubine Xian only felt like a butterfly, trapped in the huge spider web called the palace. She didn't know when she fell in. The danger was approaching step by step, but she couldn't struggle out. .
Lily is right, if this matter is true, the Queen Mother really has a vicious heart and will not let them live. If she is left out and cannot have children, she may even bring trouble to the Guo family in the future. Why should she swallow her anger? Why not take advantage of it and kill the Queen Mother! Rabbits bite people when they are cornered, and clay figures are also earthy. Empress Dowager Lu went too far when she framed her.
Lily entrusted Jiang Cainu's affairs to Concubine Xian, and she did not come forward to hide in the dark. Concubine Xian was not stupid either. After she made up her mind, she already knew that she was a grasshopper tied to the same boat as Lily. Naturally, She had done everything right. She had come forward about the plum blossom balm matter. Now, in order to avoid suspicion, she was also afraid of being targeted by Empress Dowager Lu, so she used provocation to trick Concubine De into getting involved in this matter. In the vortex.
At the end of May, Lily's three-month confinement period was over, and she naturally needed to come out to pay her respects. Empress Dowager Lu has passed the first three months, and her body has gradually begun to plump. It is almost June, and she is still wearing heavy palace clothes. The Fengming Palace is full of ice cubes, and Lily and others are uncomfortable wearing light gauze. When it was hot, she was still wrapped up thickly, covering her belly. Fortunately, she has a slender frame. Although she has just started to show her pregnancy after more than five months, others only think that she has gained some weight. How can they treacherously think that she is pregnant?
"The weather has been hot recently, and I don't know why. This year is always full of disasters." Empress Dowager Lu's body sank a lot. When A Ji helped her out, she sat on the soft couch. She first stretched out her hand to support her belly. This small gesture Looking in the eyes of Concubine Xian and Lily, both of them lowered their eyelids with respectful expressions.
"First, something happened to Mu Bei, and then Liu Wanyi's unborn child could not be saved. General Gao died for the country, and then Ai's family was not in good health. She was always flustered and short of breath every day. This year, she was not at ease. . Seeing that the weather is getting hotter and hotter, the Ai family wants to go out of the palace to escape the summer heat." She opened her eyes and told lies. She obviously gained so much weight, but she said that she was not in good health. However, everyone in the palace heard her say this, but they didn't Anyone who dared to refute did so with a concerned expression.
In fact, the truth is that Queen Mother Lu's belly is getting bigger and bigger. If she stays in the palace any longer, she may not be able to hide it. She is planning to leave the palace to try to have a baby. Lily's mind seemed to be clear, but Concubine De didn't know what was going on:
"The Queen Mother must take care of her body. I am worried about the Queen Mother's health."
"It's because you have filial piety." Empress Dowager Lu smiled, but the smile did not reach her eyes: "The Ai family has discussed it with the emperor and will set off in a while. The weather is getting hot these days, so don't worry about it every day. There is no need to come to pay your respects to the Ai family." After she said this, everyone naturally bowed and said yes.
When she came out of Fengming Palace, Concubine De glanced at Lily: "Concubine has been confined for a few days. It can be seen that she has recovered well and looks much better."
"Thanks for the compliment from my sister, but my sister's complexion is not very good. Is she also lacking in good health?" Lily blocked the soft nail handed by De Concubine. De Concubine's face stiffened, and then she snorted coldly and walked away. .
Queen Mother Lu left in a hurry. She said she would leave that day and left on the third day. In such a hurry, it seemed as if she had already packed her luggage. After she left, Su Ho was left behind to guard the Fengming Palace. This showed that due to the pregnancy, Su Ho was completely excluded from Queen Mother Lu's side. This also strengthened Su Ho's determination to move closer to Lily. Not long after she left, the emperor also set off for the summer resort. When he left, he took Concubine De and Liu Wanyi with him. Yungui was left in the palace because she was more than six months pregnant and was not suitable for traveling long distances.
When Su Ho came to Lily's palace, he whispered back to Lily: "It is true that she is pregnant. The Queen Mother has not changed her clothes for six months. The slaves have already checked it. The belts she took off seemed to be leaking out from scratches." of blood.”
Lily nodded: "Is there any way you can find out where Empress Dowager Lu gave birth and who were the women who gave birth?"
After hearing this, Su Ho pondered for a moment: "It would be a lie to say that there is no way at all. I will try my best." She had served Empress Dowager Lu for a year. When Empress Dowager Lu provoked her, Su Ho also did it for herself. Some roads have been paved, and now she is among the people favored by Empress Dowager Lu. She is not a big talker. Since she said there is a way, she must be more than 80% sure. It was inconvenient for Su Ho to stay in Xianfu Palace for a long time, so he left quickly after telling what happened.
Not long after she left, Huayi came to reply, saying that people from Yungui came to pay their respects to Lily.
As soon as Emperor Yongming and Empress Dowager Lu left, the biggest concubine in the palace was Lily. But Yun Guiren's greeting was obviously a drunkard's intention and not the wine. She has a low status and will not be qualified to raise the child in her belly in the future. However, although the Yungui people are of low origin, their ambitions are not small. She has been coming to Xianfu Palace frequently recently. Sometimes Lily does not see her, but she always wants to I came because I wanted to take advantage of Lily's loss of her child and give her unborn son to Lily to raise.
