Wei Jingxuan smiled slightly, and then said: "I wonder what your orders are when your Majesty summons this slave to come over?"
"I once told you that there was a prototype for dealing with Nala Xianyue. Just last night, I finally had a complete plan. Do you want to hear it?"
Wei Jingxuan was startled, then lowered her eyes and said, "I am all ears and listening attentively."
Concubine Yu slowly told her the plan in her mind. After Wei Jingxuan listened, her beautiful face was full of shock. After a long time, she said in a horrified voice: "You want your slave to do something that is not good for the seventh elder brother?"
Concubine Yu blew at the ruby embedded in her armor and said coldly: "What, are you scared?"
Wei Jingxuan composed herself and said: "The seventh elder brother is the eldest son of the emperor, and he has thousands of servants..." Before she could continue, Concubine Yu raised her hand and said: "Jingxuan, don't tell lies in front of me. If
If you don’t even have the courage, you wouldn’t be qualified to stand here today.”
Wei Jingxuan remained silent. Concubine Yu waited for a while and said, "How about it? Have you thought about it?"
Wei Jingxuan bit her silver teeth and said, "This matter is of great concern. If the queen becomes suspicious of this slave, my life will be lost."
Concubine Yu shook her head and said: "She trusts you so much, so how could she suspect that it was you? Even if she is really suspicious, I will try to help you." After a pause, she suddenly said: "Jingxuan, what are you doing this year?
How old are you?"
Wei Jingxuan didn't know why she suddenly asked this question, and said truthfully: "To tell you the truth, I am eighteen this year."
"Eighteen...that is to say, after the new year, you will be nineteen." Concubine Yu smiled softly and said: "A woman's best years are on the twenty-eighth year, like the first blooming of peach blossoms, fragrant and pleasant, so the palace draft
The age range is between thirteen and sixteen; eighteen..." She shook her head
Said: "It's not that great anymore. If you were outside the palace, someone who is not married at the age of 16 would definitely be ridiculed by others. If you delay for a few more years and go above 20, even if you really have a chance, do you think the emperor
Will you still fall in love with you who has already passed your best years?"
Wei Jingxuan's face changed continuously. She knew this herself. She was only thirteen when she first entered the palace. At that time, it had not yet grown, like a green fruit; but now, it is ripe and hanging on the branches.
The picker has not been seen for a long time. She knows that this face is her most beautiful face.
She relies heavily on her, so she has always paid close attention to it. Even when she was in the tea room, she tried her best to take care of her hands, especially her hands that often had to do rough work. Because of this, even though she did a lot of work, her hands were still smooth and tender.
Slender, with only a few inconspicuous calluses on the palms.
Concubine Yu saw the change in her expression and said coldly: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't get the tiger's cubs; I promise you that as long as Nala Xianyue is eliminated, I will recommend you to the emperor immediately.
"After that, she stood up and walked to Wei Jingxuan, whispering in his ear: "I am not a queen. With my help, you will definitely get what you want. You... think it through before answering me."
Wei Jingxuan lowered her head and said nothing, struggling in her heart. She wanted to refuse, but she was reluctant to let go of the promise made by Concubine Yu. Over the years, she had done so much and endured so much hardship, and for what reason, could it not be this road to success.
After a long while, she raised her head and said, "Can you please let me think about it for a few days? After all, the things you have entrusted me with, even if they are not serious enough, it will be a fatal disaster for me."
A trace of displeasure flashed across Concubine Yu's eyes, and her smile returned as before, "Okay, but you can't think about it for too long. I will give you two days. I will hear your answer at this time the day after tomorrow."
"Yes." Wei Jingxuan responded and left Xianfu Palace. That day, she was in a daze and kept thinking about this matter. During this period, she did not do anything wrong. When Mingyu asked, she said that she was feeling unwell.
, Mingyu was not suspicious and asked her to go down and rest.
Back in the house, Wei Jingxuan thought about it over and over, but still couldn't make a decision. She decided to go to Xinzheku the next day to find Su to discuss countermeasures.
When they arrived at Xinzhe's Treasury, the original Aunt Song was no longer there. A eunuch named He was replaced to take charge of the affairs of Xinzhe's Treasury. Wei Jingxuan came to pick up the clothes as an excuse. However, the clothes announced by He Gong had not yet been dried, so they could not pick them up yet.
Finally, he said with emotion: "I have stayed here in Xinzheku before, and when I think about it now, it's like I've had a dream."
Eunuch He smiled apologetically at the side, "I think it must have been a hard time for my aunt during those days."
Wei Jingxuan smiled and said: "It's all over now, so it's nothing. By the way, when we were in Xinzheku, Su and I had a good relationship. How is she now?"
Eunuch He thought for a while and asked: "Aunt refers to the Su family who was deposed as a concubine by the emperor?"
"Yes, that's her." After receiving Wei Jingxuan's affirmative reply, Mr. He said, "She should be pounding rice right now. I'll call her over right now."
Wei Jingxuan nodded and said, "Can you find a quiet place where we can say a few words?"
Eunuch He naturally agreed to her request and asked Wei Jingxuan to wait in a quiet room while he sent someone to summon Su.
Wei Jingxuan didn't wait long when she saw Mrs. Su coming in. When they were the only two people left in the room, she quickly stepped forward and shook Su's cold hands and said in a sincere voice: "Sister Su, I miss you so much.
"
"Really?" Mrs. Su sneered, took out her hands and said, "I thought Aunt Wei had already forgotten me as my sister."
Wei Jingxuan's eyes flashed and she said blankly: "Why did Sister Su say such a thing? Have I ever forgotten it?"
Mrs. Su walked to the table, poured a cup of tea by herself, drank it in one gulp and said: "If you haven't forgotten, why have you never been to Xinzheku in the past two years? What's the matter?
Is Gao Zhi too lazy to pay attention to me anymore? But..." She took a look and said coldly: "It looks like she is still just a palace maid. What's wrong, the queen refuses to help you pave that road?"
She is someone who has been a master before. The difference between a palace maid and a master can be seen at a glance. Even if it is the lowest promise, her clothes and dress are not comparable to those of a palace maid.
Wei Jingxuan sighed and said: "Where did Sister Su go? How could I be that kind of person? In fact, in the past two years, my life has not been much better than that of my sister."
Su Shi sneered and said: "Wei Jingxuan, don't you think it's funny what you said? Look at your glamorous outfit, it's not something that ordinary palace maids can wear."
"I didn't lie to my sister. Yes, I am serving the queen now, but not long ago, I was working as a slave in the imperial teahouse and almost died."
Hearing Wei Jingxuan's words, the sneer on Su's lips turned into surprise, and she looked at Wei Jingxuan doubtfully, "Royal Tea Room? Why did you go there?"
Wei Jingxuan told the story in detail, and then said: "If I hadn't discovered Concubine Xian's conspiracy in time, I wouldn't have had the chance to stand here and talk to my sister."
