Chapter 388: The Empress Dowager Disappeared and There was a Concubine in the Harem
An Rong laughed dumbly: "Sister thinks highly of me too much. If I were as capable as she said, I wouldn't have been in the palace for more than a year and still stand still in the position of beauty."
So far, the emperor has never remembered her.
A concubine in the harem who does not get the attention of the emperor is a loser, there is no doubt about this.
She is self-aware, and now she is not even qualified to compete with Mu Ci.
What surprised her was that many people in the harem did not have this consciousness. Everyone found it incredible that Mu Ci was favored. This was because her hair was long but her knowledge was short.
"That's because you don't fight for favor. If you are willing to scheme, who can scheme against you?" Shen Manyun disagreed.
Even Mu Ci's scheming may not be as good as An Rong's.
When An Rong saw Shen Manyun promoting herself in such a way, she couldn't say anything more and simply shut up.
Yingchun liked to inquire about the news the most. After she found out what was going on in Wuyou Palace from her so-called sisters, she immediately returned to Yong'an Palace to report to Mu Ci.
"I heard that everyone's expressions were ugly at that time, especially Concubine De! According to the slave girl, Concubine De must have wanted to use some vicious method to deal with the empress. As a result, the empress suddenly changed her mind and naturally defeated Concubine De's evil plan. Your Majesty is so smart, I admire you so much!" At the end of the sentence, Yingchun did not forget to flatter his master.
Mu Ci covered her lips and coughed lightly, a smile flashed in her eyes.
This girl doesn't have much ability, but she's more than happy and knows how to talk to please her. It turns out that she has lived two lives, and she also likes to listen to flattery.
The smile in her eyes grew stronger.
Sizhu saw it clearly and spat at Yingchun: "Okay, okay, you are smarter than the empress, and your popularity is very good. You even found out the news about Sansou Palace so quickly."
Yingchun couldn't hide the joy on her face at this moment: "That's natural. After I suffered a hard time last time, I felt that if something like this happened again, someone must come to save me, so I kept it in the harem. It’s about forming good relationships. Sizhu, you can’t compare to me in this regard, you’re just too old-fashioned..."
"Okay, you're here to teach me a lesson?" Sizhu said angrily.
Mu Ci watched the two girls talking nonsense and felt that QuZhi.
On the surface, it looked like she was listening to the two people bickering, but her mind was wandering to Sanssouci Palace.
She did break Zhao Ling's game today and made Zhao Ling busy for a while, but Zhao Ling couldn't give up easily, there must be more to come.
She also wanted to know how Zhao Ling would change her strategy next. You must know that time waits for no one, Zhao Ling must find another way to deal with her in the shortest possible time, right?
It can be imagined that Zhao Ling was restless in the Wuyou Palace at this moment.
Thinking of this, the corners of her lips curved slightly...
Sans Souci Palace.
After sending away all the concubines in the harem, Zhao Ling shook a few teacups hard to dissipate some of his anger.
Damn it, Mu Ci probably knew that this was the Hongmen Banquet, so he deliberately tricked her at the last moment.
She didn't believe it, she wouldn't be able to deal with Mu Ci, a whore!
Seeing that her master's mood gradually calmed down, Jin Qiu dared to step forward and comfort her: "Don't be too anxious, my queen. Although we didn't achieve our goal this time, we will still have a chance in the future. The queen mother can't be on guard for the rest of her life, let alone never leave Yong'an Palace. "
The worst thing is to think of a solution.
"I have been planning for these days and finally found a good way to deal with her, but she didn't take the bait, which wasted my efforts. Why don't you hate me?" Zhao Ling clenched his fists and pressed with all his strength. There was a thump on the table.
"Yes, this was a good opportunity, but it's a pity that the Queen Mother didn't take the bait."
Jin Qiu thought to himself that Mu Ci was indeed difficult to deal with.
She probably knew that many people were staring at her belly, so Mu Ci didn't even leave the gate of Yong'an Palace.
As a result, only by placing people in Yong'an Palace can we have the opportunity to attack the emperor's heir in Mu Ci's belly.
However, the empress only entered the palace for a short period of time, and she did not have time to place an informant in Yong'an Palace, otherwise she would not be so passive.
"This woman Mu Ci is full of tricks, otherwise the emperor would not be deceived by her." Zhao Ling said again in a fierce voice.
What she cared about most was, of course, that the emperor's heart was with Mu Ci.
She has always thought that Mu Ci was blocking her way forward. Only by removing Mu Ci could the emperor see her goodness and truly pamper her and love her.
Hearing this, Jin Qiu secretly glanced at his master.
On this point, she did not agree with her master's view.
Mu Ci did not win the favor of the emperor because of his cunning and cunning. Mu Ci's face alone was enough to drive the man crazy.
And the emperor happened to be a man, so it was extremely unusual for him to be extremely fond of Mu Ci.
But the empress was unwilling to admit that Mu Ci's face was good-looking, probably because of jealousy.
"You should help me think of a way. If she doesn't come out, we have to attack Yong'an Palace." Seeing Jin Qiu's delay in speaking, Zhao Ling urged impatiently.
Jin Qiu was silent for a moment before replying: "I am stupid and can't think of a good way."
Where is Yong'an Palace? How could it be possible to attack it casually? Without your own people, it would be inconvenient to do anything.
You can't just walk into Yong'an Palace grandly and murder Mu Ci's belly under the eyes of all the slaves in Yong'an Palace, right?
When the time comes for both people to get dirty, that would be called stupidity.
"Useless stuff!" Zhao Ling was furious and threw another cup.
Yinqiu, who was waiting outside, heard the commotion inside and hurriedly went inside to clean up the broken cup.
She cleaned carefully and didn't miss any tiny fragments.
Zhao Ling stared at this scene, seeing Yinqiu cleaning up the mess on the ground, she suddenly said: "Yinqiu, you stay here."
"Yes, your Majesty." Yinqiu was a little surprised and stood aside, waiting for instructions.
Zhao Ling looked at her standing posture and the care and thoughtfulness with which she had just cleaned up the mess, and knew that she was a careful palace servant.
Such people may have unexpected effects.
"Who do you think my biggest enemy is?" Zhao Ling spoke slowly.
Yinqiu was stunned and looked at Zhao Ling in a hurry. Zhao Ling gave her a reassuring smile: "It's okay to tell the truth. I can hear the truth."
Yinqiu hesitated for a moment, and then boldly replied: "It should be the master of Yong'an Palace. Although Empress Shu once framed the empress and caused her to suffer a lot in Guanjing Hall, the slave thought that the threat from Empress Shu was not as great as that of Yong'an.
The one with the bigger palace."
The smile on Zhao Ling's face deepened: "Keep talking."
"Especially since the one from Yong'an Palace is already pregnant with the dragon heir, the top priority is not to let that person give birth to the little emperor's heir, otherwise the entire harem will not be that person's opponent. The slaves even doubted that if that person gave birth to the little emperor's heir,
Little prince, the emperor may make the queen mother disappear, and there will be an additional favorite concubine in the harem..."
