Yuzhi coughed softly several times, looking weak and weak, and replied with coughing and wheezing: "Ming Fei is interested, I did catch a cold yesterday, I came here today to pay my respects to the Queen." , Secondly, I came here specifically to ask for leave, and plan to recuperate in Ziyuxuan these days, and not to disturb the empress, so as not to spread the illness to all the sisters."
Mu Ci looked at Yuzhi's pale face and wondered why Yuzhi was sick at this time.
On such a hot day, Yuzhi is still infected with wind and cold?
Although she had doubts in her heart, she didn't show it on her face: "Since you are sick, you will take good care of yourself at Ziyuxuan tomorrow. Your health is the most important thing."
"Thank you, Queen, for your grace." Yuzhi said to Mu Ci respectfully, which was completely different from his previous arrogant attitude.
After the routine greeting ceremony was completed, everyone left Yong'an Palace one by one, and Yuzhi also walked away while coughing.
Shen Manyun wanted to stay until the end to talk to Mu Ci about Yuzhi, but in the end Mu Ci glanced at her and persuaded her to leave.
After all, she was the one who said she wanted to continue acting. If she leaves last every day, it will definitely make people suspicious, so it is better to keep a low profile.
Since she couldn't stay and discuss with Mu Ci, she went to Yuzhi to test it out.
Thinking of this, she quickened her pace and quickly caught up with Yuzhi: "Is Sister Yu okay?"
Yuzhi was pretending to cough. When she heard Shen Manyun's voice, a look of disgust flashed in her eyes. It was all her fault that she was short-sighted. She was deceived by Qi Luo the first time and almost deceived by Shen Manyun the second time. Already.
If An Rong hadn't given her the news, she would still be kept in the dark.
What makes her most intolerable is that Shen Manyun used to hate Mu Ci, but now he joins forces with Mu Ci, so she hates Shen Manyun's hypocrisy even more.
When she looked back at Shen Manyun, Yuzhi had a weak smile on her face: "Sister, Concubine Chengzhen, is concerned. My sister just caught the cold, it's nothing serious."
"If you catch cold, you need to see a doctor. Let's do this. I will ask the imperial doctor to come over and see my sister..."
Before Shen Manyun could finish her words, she was rejected by Yuzhi: "Sister Zhenfei, you don't have to be polite. I'm fine. I'll be fine after a few days of rest."
"Why are you so polite to me? Every time I see you, I feel particularly cordial. You remind me of myself when I first entered the palace..."
When Yuzhi heard this, she felt even more sarcastic, and once again rejected Shen Manyun's "kindness": "It's not polite, but it's really unnecessary. My body knows that it will recover in two days. It's medicine that's poisonous. If I won’t take medicine if it’s not necessary, and it usually heals on its own.”
Seeing her insistence, Shen Manyun couldn't continue any longer, so he retreated and said, "Let's do this. I will send you back to Ziyuxuan..."
"Sister Zhen Fei, I can go back by myself. I don't feel very well, so I'll leave first." Yuzhi didn't want to respond to Shen Manyun anymore, so after saying this, she held Lijuan's hand and walked away.
Shen Manyun looked at Yuzhi's back and raised her lips to smile: "I really don't want to waste time with me at all."
Huixin sneered: "Following Concubine An, Yu Jieyu will suffer losses sooner or later."
If you don't have such ability, you still want to deal with the Queen, and you don't even care how much you weigh.
"I wonder what vicious methods they will come up with to deal with Mu Ci." Shen Mangyun couldn't hide his worry.
Hui Xin looked at her master with complicated eyes: "My queen, you should worry about yourself first. The queen is very capable. If you want to deal with the queen, you are asking for trouble. Now that Concubine An knows that the queen and the queen have joined forces, she may be able to use it. What kind of vicious way to deal with the empress?"
"I am not afraid of that poisonous woman An. One day, I and An will have to settle their accounts!" When An Rong was mentioned, Shen Manyun didn't feel much.
No matter how cunning An Rong is, can she really defeat Mu Ci?
She was very sure that Mu Ci was the one who could have the last laugh. As for An Rong, she was at best one of the many resentful women in the harem. If she wanted to seize the throne from Mu Ci, she could only watch as Mu Ci flourished.
By the way, An Rong cares about the emperor, but the emperor will never be tempted by An Rong in this life.
This is what makes An Rong the most painful.
"Anyway, your Majesty, you should be more careful, lest you fall into Concubine An's poisonous scheme without realizing it." Huixin still warned uneasily.
Shen Manyun chuckled: "She doesn't have enough time to deal with Mu Ci, how could she spend time on this person who is not a threat at all? But, you have to be careful in the harem. Who knows you might get into trouble? What kind of weirdo?"
"As long as your Majesty understands in your heart." After saying this, Huixin shut up and said no more.
After Yuzhi returned to Ziyuxuan, she swept away her previous sick appearance and punched the table: "Concubine Zhen really thought I was a fool, and she teased me again and again!"
Lijuan didn't dare to say anything.
Qiutang suddenly left the palace, and she didn't even have anyone to discuss it with.
In addition, Yuzhi has become weird recently. In order to protect Mingzhe, she agrees with Yuzhi in everything. The most important thing is that Yuzhi seems to be planning something, but she doesn't know what it is specifically.
Yuzhi seemed to be on guard against her, not telling her anything important.
Just when Lijuan was thinking wildly, a sharp-faced palace maid with brisk steps suddenly walked in: "Your servant Yun'er has seen Master Jade and wishes to greet you."
Yuzhi became very warm as soon as she saw Yun'er and pulled Yun'er to chat.
Lijuan vaguely noticed something was wrong.
As expected, Yun'er took her place that day, and she temporarily took Qiutang's place.
After all, she had stayed in the palace for more than a year, so it was not surprising that she had seen so many things. But she always felt that Yuzhi had become very strange recently. Then Qiutang left the palace and followed Yun'er to Ziyuxuan on duty. He was demoted again for no apparent reason.
This series of events cannot be just a coincidence.
The fact is indeed what Lijuan thought.
Yun'er is the palace maid sent by An Rong.
An Rong acted cautiously. Not only did she change the most important person around her to Aunt Peng, she also changed Zi Yuxuan's slaves.
Since Yuzhi is working for her, the people around her must be clean and absolutely trustworthy.
As soon as Qiu Tang left the palace, there was someone missing from Yuzhi's side. This was the best time for her to bring someone in, so Yun'er came to Ziyuxuan on duty, and Lijuan decentralized the drama.
Mu Ci, who was in Yong'an Palace, also received the news.
"Has the maid in charge around Yuzhi changed?" Mu Ci's eyes flashed slightly.
"Exactly. Qiu Tang left the palace, then Li Juan was demoted, and Yun'er came to the throne again. Yun'er should be the one who was placed by Concubine An in Ziyuxuan. Concubine An was in the Buddhist hall, but she moved frequently and was very busy. Ah." Sizhu said sarcastically.
The emperor deliberately put An Rong under house arrest before leaving the palace, but just like that, An Rong could still communicate with the harem unscrupulously, which shows An Rong's methods.
