Chapter 112: Peel off the cocoon
Since Tang Wanyi returned to the palace, Shuya has put almost all her experience on dealing with Concubine Liang, although the secret in the incense is not so easy to investigate, but Shuya's goal is to put it on another person.
,, the little palace maid who tended to the flowers and plants in the Changquan Palace, Fei Fei.
Since flowers and plants are the focus of perfume and incense, since Concubine Liang Shu is well versed in this, then the flowers and plants in her palace are of course not ordinary, if you can start from this aspect, and cooperate with Tang Wanyi's Master Qi who is secretly contacting and probing the situation, there may be many unexpected gains, of course, this little palace maid Feifei is not so easy to approach.
It's not that she is thoughtful or loyal to Concubine Liangshu, the most embarrassing thing is that she is really just the most ordinary little palace maid, and she has a little friendship with Bai Yafan because Bai Yafan was bored living in the side hall of Changquan Palace before, and occasionally walked in the small garden in the palace, but Shuya, as a big palace maid of Fenghua Palace, has no reason to make friends with any little palace maids, not to mention that it is still a little palace maid in Changquan Palace, even if she wants to say that she has no other meaning, no one will believe it.
But fortunately, after all, there is still Hua Guifei to help, and there are many palace maids in Birou Palace who are loyal and willing to put themselves in a low position for various reasons, although Shuya can't do it herself, it doesn't hurt to borrow one or two people to use it.
And what makes her feel happy is that Fei Fei, the little palace maid, is indeed as Bai Yafan said, she has no scheming, and she is very enthusiastic about treating people, although she has never been valued by Concubine Liangshu, in fact, she doesn't know whether there are secrets in these flowers and plants, but after all, she is a full-time servant and takes care of them, and sometimes she may not understand what she knows, but just that little bit of vagueness is enough for Shuya to grasp the key.
And more importantly, Fei Fei also revealed a very important news, although there are a lot of exotic flowers and plants in the small garden in Changquan Palace, there is no shortage of various treasures, and the emperor has repeatedly expanded the small garden because of the need for fragrance and incense making by Concubine Liang, and often adds various flowers, but Concubine Liang Shu is the most fond of the crape myrtle flowers in the palace of Concubine Rong, and from time to time she has to go back with a bouquet, sometimes saying that it is the need for fragrance, and sometimes saying that she misses such a beautiful crape myrtle, and most importantly, in the palace of Concubine Liangshu, There has never been a crape myrtle flower.
"You mean to say...... Is it likely that this crape myrtle flower is the key? Ming Shiyun pondered for a moment, and looked at Shuya with some doubts, "But crape myrtle is not a very rare flower, everyone knows that its fragrance is elegant and pleasant, and it looks good when it opens, but other than that, it is really useless, and Concubine Rong loves to plant crape myrtle flowers, just because it is the flower of her hometown, you said that the secret in Concubine Liangshu's incense is crape myrtle flowers...... This ......"
"Niangniang, the secret in Concubine Liang's incense should be that the crape myrtle flowers are correct, but to be precise, maybe it's just the crape myrtle flowers in Concubine Rong's palace?" Shuya slowly analyzed for Ming Shiyun, "You think, this crape myrtle flower is a very beautiful flower, very pleasing to the eye and everyone loves it, so there are a lot of them in the imperial garden, if you want to plant them, it is actually very simple, but since Concubine Liang Shufei needs crape myrtle flowers so much, she doesn't plant them in her own palace, and she never takes the crape myrtle flowers in the imperial garden, so she begged to go back with the crape myrtle flowers in the Rong Concubine Palace...... Maybe there are some crape myrtle flowers in Concubine Rong's palace that even Concubine Rong herself doesn't know the secret. ”
"If I want to do something high-risk, either in one step or in a catastrophe, I will also find a way to choose a way out first, at least I can't leave myself a little way back." Although Shuya's words are not very obvious, how can Ming Shiyun, who grew up in the palace since she was a child, not understand, "So she used the crape myrtle flowers in the Rong Concubine Palace, because she hid all the secrets there first, so that even if it is revealed, it is the crape myrtle flowers in the Rong Concubine Palace that have a problem, but for her, she is very innocent, because...... That's not what she planted herself, she just thinks that the flowers in Concubine Rong's palace are very beautiful and easy to use, anyway, she is a lady who is halfway out of the house and plays with incense, it's not her who is wrong, it's Concubine Rong. ”
"Niangniang is wise, the slave maid thinks that maybe Concubine Liang Shu has already made plans and arranged everything, and her friendship with Concubine Rong is probably also for the sake of her and a big prince, so it will be more secure."
"Because the eldest prince is a filial son, and Concubine Rong is a loving mother, the deeper the friendship between the two, the easier it is to compromise for each other, and it is really easy to deal with it." Ming Shiyun sighed, when it came to Concubine Rong and the eldest prince, she actually sometimes felt sympathy, "Didn't the fifth prince use this to control the two of them?" It's just that the concubine and the eldest prince who used my miscarriage as a handle to threaten it...... This harem, this royal family, is really ruthless and cold, everyone is ruthless and ruthless, it really makes people feel chilling and scared when they think about it. ”
"Being in a high position, it is naturally cold, but Niangniang can rest assured, the slaves and maids will definitely do their best to protect Niangniang and pave the way for Niangniang." Shuya comforted, and continued, "But the problem with the crape myrtle in the Rong Concubine Palace is just an inference drawn by the slave and maid after synthesizing all the circumstances, and it has not been verified, and since it is from the Rong Concubine Palace, it is even more difficult to investigate, a careless is likely to be that Concubine Rong took the blame for Concubine Liang, and it is more likely that Concubine Liang Shu became a pitiful victim, and if this is the case, we not only can't rectify Concubine Liangshu, but also push her, so that she is free of all worries, The most dangerous obstacle was produced for her. ”
"This is also ......" Ming Shiyun nodded, and thought carefully for a while, "Don't worry about this in advance, I'm afraid we have to plan for a while in the long run, and we also need to have a detailed and careful arrangement, otherwise it is very likely that Concubine Liang will be countered by Concubine Liangshu...... In this way, I will ask for Hua Guifei's opinion again, I believe that Sister Hua will definitely have a good idea, Shuya, I have worked hard for you this time, you can rest first, if there are new clues, you can continue to investigate, as for crape myrtle...... I think it would be more appropriate to let Concubine Hua handle it, after all, she has more connections than us, plus the support of the mother's family and the five princes of the previous dynasty, it will be easier to do things. ”
"Yes, the slave and maid understood, and the slave and maid went down first."
"Well, you go and see where Wanyi is, let her come over, I have something to explain."
Tang Wanyi was actually in the side hall, so Shuya was easy to find, and people naturally came quickly, Ming Shiyun had just put down the teacup when she saw people turning out of the screen.
"The slave has seen the mother."
"Wanyi, get up." Smiling and raising her hand to make a gesture of false support, Ming Shiyun watched her get up, and beckoned her to get closer, before slowly asking, "I don't know where you are, why did you come back so quickly?" ”
"Back to Niangniang, the slave maid originally thought that I might not come back so soon today, but ......" Wanyi paused for a moment, then looked at Ming Shiyun with a smile and said, "When I went to Birou Palace, it happened that the fifth prince was asking Hua Guifei Niangniang to say goodbye, and he asked me to bring a message to Niangniang, saying that you don't have to worry about what you invite him to do, this has already had a result, but there are more things and complicated, so tonight he will think of saying this to Niangniang in person, so that Niangniang must wait for him to come." ”
"He's coming?" Ming Shiyun was startled, and couldn't help but raise her hand to cover her mouth, and looked at Tang Wanyi for a long time before she said in a tone that was half helpless and half defeated, "Oh my God...... Why is his courage so big day by day, this harem...... It's not his harem yet! Are you really not afraid of being discovered? ”
"Niangniang don't worry, since the five princes have a plan, of course they are all arranged, you just wait for him to come tonight, I believe that the five princes will bring Niangniang a very satisfactory result."
"He is your master, of course you are towards him, sneaking into my dormitory every now and then, doing some nonsense things, I really don't know whether I am his father's concubine or his concubine."
"Poof!" Tang Wanyi couldn't help laughing, "Niangniang, you complain, but you can't hear the slightest grievance, but Niangniang can rest assured, I look at the appearance of the fifth prince, there must be news of Master Qi, and maybe I have a certain understanding of Concubine Liang's affairs, I believe that Niangniang will be very satisfied today." ”
"Heh, he wants to be happy, naturally he wants me to be happy so that he won't find something unhappy, since he wants me to be happy, then the person I want to deal with, the news I want to know, he should do it well." Ming Shiyun pursed her lips, she found that unconsciously, she had become more and more dependent on Xiao Yingzhe, no matter what kind of thing she was the first to think of letting him help with it, I really don't know what else she could do if he didn't make a move, "Besides...... Isn't that what he's for? Let me rely on him, trust him, ask him for help in everything, and slowly ...... Won't you be able to live without him anymore? ”
"The fifth prince also likes Niangniang and has a sincere heart for Niangniang, so he hopes that Niangniang will also really rely on and trust him, in fact...... That's not a bad thing. ”
"It's nice to say, what kind of character is he, I don't know, he likes beauties, he loves the country more, he values me so much, but it's because I'm the first beauty in Beiyue, he wants to be the first person in Beiyue, of course he has to hold the first beauty in Beiyue, isn't it? Otherwise, what kind of woman can be worthy of him and not make him feel ashamed? Ming Shiyun smiled lightly, "Say he likes me...... In fact, it's just because I'm the first beauty of Beiyue who deserves to be the first person in Beiyue. ”
