Her impression of Tao Jieyu still remained at the plum blossom appreciation party.
She knew that this woman was very hypocritical, but today she discovered that Tao Jieyu was not just ambitious. This woman with an innocent and harmless face actually had a good mind.
It's a pity that Tao Jieyu found the wrong person. She should find someone else to cooperate.
"Si Zhu, see you off." Mu Ci didn't want to waste any more time with Tao Jieyu, so he issued an eviction order.
Tao Jieyu didn't expect that Mu Ci would still be holding it at this time. She was so angry that she rushed forward to pick up the bead curtain and shouted at Mu Ci: "I am sincerely seeking cooperation with you, why don't you want to join forces with me?!"
She could even imagine that with Mu Ci's help, she could step on Mu Ci and rise to the top, and it would be easy for her to rise to prominence in the future.
She came full of hope, thinking that Mu Ci would put aside personal grudges for the time being and choose to join forces with her for the sake of the overall situation. Little did she know that she had another misunderstanding.
"We don't agree with each other, please!" Mu Ci opened her lips lazily.
Tao Jieyu looked at Mu Ci coldly: "Are you sure you won't regret it? You have to know that if I come to you today, I will either become your friend or your enemy."
As long as you are a smart person, you should choose the former.
But it's a pity that Mu Ci didn't say anything anymore and just let Sizhu see the guests off.
Tao Jieyu left Yong'an Palace angrily, followed closely by Cixin, feeling sad and sad.
She knew that Mu Ci was not that easy to talk to. If she was still guessing before, now she was sure that Mu Ci was the current Queen Mother.
Mu Ci's demeanor, tone of voice, and decisive attitude just now proved her thoughts.
After Tao Jieyu returned to the East Wing of Chuxiu Palace, she lost her temper again. After the attack, she quickly calmed down and decided to find another partner for cooperation.
The most indispensable thing in this deep palace is frustrated people. As long as she finds someone who is in the same direction as her, they can work together like An Rong and Shen Manyun to reach a high position.
It was indeed the friendship between An Rong and Shen Manyun that inspired her, and she thought that Mu Ci could be her stepping stone. But Mu Ci didn't know how to praise, so she could only choose another partner to work with.
She quickly locked onto her second target, that person was Chen Zhiqin, who was already Chongyi.
Chen Zhiqin has been in the palace for several years, but has never had the opportunity to sleep with her. Moreover, Chen Zhiqin is ambitious and is not at odds with Mu Ci. She is easier to handle than Mu Ci. Although she is not as valuable as Mu Ci, she can control Chen Zhiqin.
A suitable partner.
After making the decision, she took the initiative to go to Chen Zhiqin to discuss cooperation.
Chen Zhiqin did not expect that Tao Jieyu would come to find her. She had never dealt with Tao Jieyu before and had no friendship at all.
After Tao Jieyu explained her intention, Chen Zhiqin just smiled and didn't answer.
Tao Jieyu was not in a hurry either. Only a person like Mu Ci who did not know how to show appreciation would push her away, but Chen Zhiqin was different. She had been in the palace for many years without even having a chance to sleep with her, so she must be very anxious.
Even An Rong, who was at the same time as her, has become Guifei An. How come Chen Zhiqin is not in a hurry?
Now that she has locked this target, she is confident enough to get Chen Zhiqin in her pocket.
"My sister must have found the wrong person." Chen Zhiqin took two sips of tea slowly before speaking leisurely.
It was only after Mu Ci reminded her that she realized that Tao Jieyu was not a simple woman. She looked innocent and flawless, but she was actually the best at pretending in the entire harem.
Cooperating with such a person is tantamount to working with a tiger. You don't know what will happen if you die at the hands of this woman.
In order to live longer, she should stay away from Tao Jieyu.
"Sister Chongyi, can you listen to me?" Tao Jieyu said with a straight face.
But in her heart she still disapproved of it and had no intention of cooperating with Tao Jieyu.
"It was the Imperial Concubine and the Zhen Concubine who inspired my sister. The two empresses worked hand in hand back then, and today one has become the Imperial Concubine and the other has become the Zhen Concubine. In the harem, one more friend is always better than one more enemy. Sister enters I have been in the palace for several years, but it is only because I have not found a good alliance that I am still in the position of the ninth concubine today. With Sister Chen's appearance and talent, she should have earned a better future." Tao Jieyu He spoke slowly and without a long speech.
She knew that as long as she touched Chen Zhiqin's mind, she would be half successful.
If Chen Zhiqin agrees to cooperate with her, then Chen Zhiqin will play the role of Shen Manyun, and she will play the role of An Rong.
After all, if she gets a chance in the future, she will keep climbing up.
After listening to Tao Jieyu's words, Chen Zhiqin looked thoughtful.
Before Tao Jieyu finished speaking, she knew clearly that Tao Jieyu clearly wanted to become the second Concubine An.
How can there be any long-term friendship in this harem? It is true that they take advantage of each other.
Tao Jieyu wants to become the second An Rong. This is a woman whose ambition is growing.
"My sister's words really speak to my sister's heart. Well, since my sister is so sincere, it's not good for my sister not to agree. From now on, my sister and I will advance and retreat together. In the future, I want my sister to protect me more. "Chen Zhiqin smiled kindly at Tao Jieyu.
Tao Jieyu showed a bright smile: "What are you talking about, sister? I still hope that my sister can help me show my face in front of the emperor. From now on, I will rely on my sister."
"My sister is favored because my sister relies on her." Chen Zhiqin replied politely.
The two of them were going back and forth, giving each other high hats, and the atmosphere was very good.
When Tao Jieyu left, Chen Zhiqin specially gave her favorite bracelet to Tao Jieyu.
Tao Jieyu left Yifangzhai and glanced at the bracelet Chen Zhiqin gave her from time to time. A sarcastic smile appeared on her lips, and then she took it off.
She didn't dare to wear the things Chen Zhiqin gave her. Who knew if there was any poison on them?
Although she obviously wants to be sisters with Chen Zhiqin, she still has to be careful when there is no one around. In a place like the harem, there are never real friends, and An Rong and Shen Manyun are the best. witness.
Huixiang sent Tao Jieyu away and returned to Chen Zhiqin to resume her life.
"Does Empress Chongyi really want to join forces with Master Tao? Master Tao seeks out Empress Chongyi, and the slaves are afraid that Empress Chongyi will be stepped on by Master Tao. Empress Chongyi needs to be more cautious." Huixiang expressed her worries.
"I know what she was thinking. She just thought I was easy to handle. She saw An Rong's success and thought she could become the second An Rong." A sarcastic smile appeared on Chen Zhiqin's lips.
Back then, she was naive and took An Rong as her leader, but it turned out that An Rong was a scheming person and never regarded her as a sister.
