She thought that the person most likely to attack Mu Ci would be Zhao Ling, who had just returned to the harem.
However, it has been a while since Zhao Ling came back, and there has been no movement yet. That bitch is not a good person, and she may be counting on others to take action so that she can reap the benefits.
"No matter what your Majesty decides, I will definitely do my best to handle the matter," Furong said.
"You still have to be careful, Mu Ci is not easy to deal with. She is so successful as the Queen Mother, not only because the emperor protects her, but also because she is very cunning. Don't let her find out that you are mine.
Hidden post, you must not be careless in Yong'an Palace." Hua Shang warned softly.
Furong is not only smart, but also a chess piece that she has cultivated for a long time. She must play the most critical role so that all her efforts will not be in vain.
Although it was Mu Ci's credit that she was able to successfully enter the palace, she never regarded Mu Ci as one of her own.
The emperor valued Mu Ci so much, so she naturally knew that she had to get rid of Mu Ci as an enemy when necessary.
"Slave, don't worry."
Furong chatted with Hua Shang for a while before leaving the garden and pavilion in a hurry.
The empress has not yet made up her mind, otherwise as a first-class palace maid, it would be easy for her to add spices to Mu Ci's tea without her noticing.
Now I'm just waiting for an opportunity to come.
If Zhao Ling didn't take action, she would take action. There was absolutely no chance that Mu Ci would give birth to this child.
Shortly after Furong and Hua Shang left, the person hiding in the dark appeared. It was the first-class palace maid Platycodon platycodon who was serving An Rong.
After making sure that no one was around, Platycodon hurriedly left Yuanhe Pavilion and returned to Hanyunxuan to report back to An Rong.
"My master's guess is correct. There are indeed hidden secrets of other concubines in Yong'an Palace." Kikyo reported what she saw to An Rong.
Not long ago, the master gave her an order to send people to keep an eye on the movements in Yong'an Palace at all times.
Naturally, she tried her best to handle this matter well, so that she could have a chance to get ahead in Hanyunxuan.
Now Zhitao is the most trusted maid of the master. If she wants to stand out, she must serve her master well.
This was her chance. She worked day and night without any slack, and finally made progress today.
"I didn't expect Concubine Xian to be interested in the Queen Mother. She was able to enter the palace and serve the Emperor thanks to the Queen Mother's blessing." An Rong said thoughtfully.
Kikyo did not dare to answer the conversation casually, but stood quietly aside, waiting for her master's orders.
After pondering for a moment, An Rong remembered that Platycodon was still waiting for her order. She said quietly: "You continue to keep an eye on Yong'an Palace. If there is anything strange, report it to me immediately."
Maybe besides An Rong, someone else planted hidden stakes in Yong'an Palace.
Kikyo was a little surprised: "Master, shouldn't we take action?"
Should we just let others take the lead?
"You just have to do what the master tells you. The other masters have their own opinions, so please step back." Zhitao ordered in a cold voice.
"Yes, my slave, please leave." Platycodon didn't say anything else and retreated as instructed.
An Rong looked at Platycodon grandiflorum's back and said in a low voice: " Platycodon grandiflorum has a calm temperament, and she did a good job this time. Maybe she can be reused in the future."
"My servant has been observing her for a long time. Her ability to do things is indeed very good, and she is also very low-key on weekdays." Zhitao agreed.
She was the only one who was brought into the palace by her master. Kikyo was selected by the palace bureau and must be carefully observed before she can be reused.
Not only Platycodon, but also other palace officials and eunuchs must observe carefully to make sure there are no problems before they can stay.
"It takes at least three years to observe whether a person can be trusted. It's still early, so keep watching. If after another two years, Platycodon still has no problem, major matters can be handed over to Platycodon for handling." An Rong replied quietly.
.
She's not in a hurry.
Although it has been almost a year and a half since she entered the palace, she has never thought about being in the limelight. Her purpose is to live peacefully in the harem, and except for Zhao Ling, no one in the harem has noticed her so far.
This is her greatest success.
"Master, don't you want to deal with the Queen Mother yet?" Zhitao was a little surprised.
She thought that she asked Platycodon to monitor the movements of Yong'an Palace because her master finally figured it out and decided to compete for favor.
"Why should I deal with the Queen Mother? At present, the entire harem is the enemy of the Queen Mother, why should I stand out? This kind of hard work of fighting for favor and harming others should be left to others, and I can just watch the fun." An Rong showed a quiet smile.
.
"Master, what you say makes sense. When fish and clams fight, the fisherman will benefit."
Zhitao truly admires the master's patience.
In this harem, if you want to stay safe and sound for a long time, the first thing you need to do is keep a low profile.
The other concubines have already been fighting vigorously, but the master has not made any move yet, just sitting on the mountain and watching the fight between tigers and tigers.
In her opinion, if the master is so calm, he will definitely be the final winner in the future.
Because the master didn't need to take action at all, there were many people scrambling to die.
Hanyunxuan will not comment for now.
Zhao Ling returned to the harem and kept a low profile for some time. On this day, he decided to invite all the concubines to the Wuyou Palace. Of course, Mu Ci, as a big shot in the harem, was also invited.
When Mu Ci heard the news, he agreed.
Zhao Ling thought he could invite Mu Ci out of the mountain, but unexpectedly, on the day of the banquet, Mu Ci didn't show up.
Later, Feng Jiu was sent to tell the story that the Queen Mother's phoenix body was not in harmony, and the imperial doctor said that it was not suitable to go out and walk around, and that she needed to take good care of herself, so she could not come to Wuyou Palace today.
Originally, a large part of the people came here for Mu Ci, while another part of them wanted to watch the excitement, and a small number of people wanted to plot against Mu Ci.
As a result, Mu Ci, the main protagonist, did not come, and everyone's hopes were dashed.
So this so-called banquet ended in a haphazard manner. Everyone came to enjoy the event, but returned disappointed.
Even Shen Manyun saw the trick: "The Empress Dowager's trick was brilliant. She knew that Concubine De had bad intentions in inviting her to the banquet, so she pretended to agree at first, and then at the critical moment, she lied about being sick and couldn't come. Concubine De, who had been preparing for a long time, was finally in vain.
A lot of work."
After everyone left, Zhao Ling lost her temper again. She really wanted to see Zhao Ling's black face with her own eyes.
"The Queen Mother has a delicate heart. It will be even more difficult to plot against the Queen Mother in the future. In my opinion, if everyone joins forces, they may not be the Queen Mother's opponent." An Rong responded softly.
Shen Manyun didn't expect An Rong to speak so highly of Mu Ci.
She was somewhat unconvinced: "Is the Queen Mother really so capable?"
"At present, there is really no one in the entire harem who can rival the Queen Mother." An Rong replied with certainty.
Shen Manyun looked sideways when he heard this: "I don't think so, sister, you just don't take action. If there is a younger sister who can deal with the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother will definitely not be her opponent."
