Liang Siji's condition was repeated, and the news of his death last night spread in the Shanggong Bureau.

Kong Lingci found calm who was folding wooden strips in the yard, and told the news breathlessly, with sorrow on his face: "Calm down, Liang Sizhi is dead, what about the murderer?" Why didn't you hear about the murderer? ”

"There is no murderer at all, how can you hear the news that the murderer has been caught?" Said calmly and lightly.

Kong Lingci was stunned and looked at her puzzled.

"No one would have thought that this murderer would be so bold, I think she is also desperate to survive on the tip of the knife." Calm down.

Kong Lingci's eyes widened: "Who is this person?" Do you have the ability to do that? ”

The two were talking, only to see the eunuch of Renshou Palace, holding the decree of the Queen Mother, walking in.

Kong Lingci hurriedly stepped forward to salute and asked with a smile: "Two fathers-in-law, what good things to announce?" ”

"Isn't that a good thing? After the Empress Dowager's careful consideration in the past two days, the candidate for the Shang Palace has been determined, and our family is here to announce this. The eunuch smiled proudly.

"The candidate has already been decided? Isn't it determined by selection? Kong Lingci asked unhappily.

"What else is the selection, the death of the dead who are eligible for the election, there is no need to select, besides, the ceremony of sacrificing the heavens is coming, if the Shanggong Bureau continues to be like this, it will inevitably be chaotic, if there is another errand, who will take the responsibility?"

The eunuch said with a smile as he walked towards Si Zhensi to the south.

Kong Lingci sat down beside him in disappointment, and sighed: "After struggling for so long, she is still fighting for her, if she does Shanggong, she will not be as good as us." ”

Calmly grinning at the corners of his mouth, smiling.

This matter is indeed her miscalculation, but no matter how much she can calculate, she can't count it as a secret in people's hearts.

The reason why Zhao Yue was able to ascend to a high position was only because she held a secret that could kill people.

Calmly felt that he was not filthy enough, and he did not have a hobby of spying on other people's secrets.

She didn't feel that she had failed much, Zhao Yue relied on this method to get to the top, and the final outcome would be the same as Han Zhi.

Zhao Yue followed behind the eunuch, hiding a smug look, passing by Calm and walking outside.

"Look at her villainous face." Kong Lingci looked at her back and scolded hatefully.

"Lao Kong, let's do things, are the wine bottles finished? There are also torches for ignition, which are not sloppy. Calm changed the subject.

"You still have to worry about it, it's already done, the two molds you carved are really amazing, exactly the same, at this year's ceremony, you don't have to listen to those old pedantics because the cups are different."

Kong Lingci said with a smile.

"Then you have to do a good job on the surface, I paint flowers, birds and insects, only one is fine, if I draw two identical ones, it will be difficult for me to die." Calm down.

"It seems that Zhao Yue's promotion has not affected your mood, and this palace is still afraid that you will be sad, so I came over to comfort you." Pei Shaofen's voice sounded at the gate of the courtyard.

looked up at her calmly, greeted her, and ordered Kong Lingci to pour tea.

"Calm down, after you entered the palace, there were a lot of things, what's the use? I'm just a division, and I let my opponent do a high position, which is really disappointing, but it's not like you in the Huanyi Bureau at that time.

Defeat the battle of Concubine Wan, how beautiful you did! What's the matter now, I can't even get a chance to get on top. ”

Pei Shaofen stared at her face and said with a disappointed expression.

"Mother, let's go into the house and talk." Calm invited her into the house and sat down, and Chakong Lingci also brought tea.

Pei Shaofen took a sip of tea, then smiled again: "In the past two days, I have been exploring Zhao Yue's bottom, in order to give you a chance to take revenge."

The hard work pays off, and I really want to find out something, don't look at her current scenery, as long as I tell this secret, I don't care if her head is different, and she will be beheaded all over the house! ”

"Niang Niang is really powerful, what is the secret?" Kong Lingci stepped forward to salute and asked.

"Lao Kong, I forgot to clean up the wooden strips that were just oiled with varnish, you go and collect them for me." Calmly took Kong Lingci out of the door.

Pei Shaofen took another sip of tea, and a suspicious smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Don't you want to know what the secret is, with this secret for self-defense, even if she Zhao Yue is a Shanggong, she has to listen to you obediently." ”

"To be honest, I really don't really want to know, if a person knows too many secrets, even if he is not seen by others, he will be scared to death sooner or later." Calm down.

Pei Shaofen sneered: The reason why we are so passive after entering the palace and being rectified everywhere is because although you helped Zhixing at the beginning, you didn't know what secrets Zhixing knew?

Sometimes things are not as good as we think they are.

When I was in the Huanyi Bureau, I naively thought that as long as I lived upright, selfless, and had a clear conscience, I would be worthy of this life.

But what do I gain by living like that?

And what have I lost by living so vilely now?

Aren't they all the same? It's alive anyway. ”

Calmly sighed silently, and only asked her for a while: "Even if you want to tell me that secret, you won't just tell me?" What do you want me to do in exchange for that secret of yours? ”

Pei Shaofen sighed: "Why are you so smart, if you are not so smart, maybe I will tell you this secret directly." ”

"If I'm not smart, you can use me directly, if I'm smart, you can make an exchange with me, and use such considerable conditions to lure me to use me, in fact, it's all the same." Calm down.

Pei Shaofen flashed his eyes: "Whatever you say, I do have something to ask you, you are the darling of this harem, no matter what kind of mistakes you make, it's always wrong and good, there is always a way to get out."

For example, in this assassination case two days ago, if you were a bystander, you would have lost your head a few times, but you would have been fine, and you would not have hurt a single hair.

Instead, he became a frequent visitor to the emperor's heart-raising palace.

This palace is the emperor's bedroom, and even our concubines are not qualified to go, but you can come and go freely first, which is really enviable. ”

"Niangniang wants me to take you to the Heart Cultivation Palace to see the emperor?" Calm down.

"How is that possible! I don't want to die. Pei Shaofen sneered: "I'm just curious, Concubine Ying, why did she become pregnant with a dragon fetus at this time?" It's a bit of a coincidence.

You just asked me to give the medicine to the emperor to drink, but I only drank it three or two times, and after the emperor drank the medicine, he stayed with me all the time, and I took the medicine you gave me very obediently.

Why did she get pregnant first, and there would be such a coincidence in the world? ”

"So what? Why didn't Niangniang tell these words to the emperor in person? Calmly said.

"If I could, do you think I wouldn't? I'm no longer the naïve Pei Shaofen of the Huanyi Bureau. The days spent in this harem have taught me only one thing, that is, to achieve one's goals by any means. Pei Shaofen said coldly.

"I can't help with this." Calmly reject her.

"You can, you must be able to, your medical skills are so clever, if you want to cure the emperor's hidden disease, you can cure it with a few doses of medicine, if you want to cure the queen mother's asthma, a few injections will be half better, if you want a woman to lose a child, it must be an easy thing, isn't it?" Pei Shaofen said in a dumb voice.

"Mother, I won't do this kind of thing." Calmly stood up and said solemnly.

"Zhao Yue's secret, don't forget that you are a thorn in Zhao Yue's side, a thorn in the flesh, she will not let you go, if you don't have this secret self-defense, it will be a matter of time before you die in the hands of Zhao Yue, you won't think of this." Pei Shaofen clenched the teacup in his hand with both hands and said a little nervously.

"Niangniang, it is up to people to make things happen, we have done everything we can do, if God chooses Concubine Ying, why should we have to do this kind of hurtful thing?" Calm down.

Pei Shaofen's expression instantly turned cold, and he snorted: "I knew you wouldn't do this, I was just wishful thinking, I didn't forget my original intention, when the two of us entered the palace, it was just to save our lives, and we didn't ask for any glory and wealth at all."

To be able to get to this point today can be regarded as God's eyes and mercy to us. ”

Calmly sighed: "It's best if you think so." ”

"But you are ruthless and unrighteous, but I, Pei Shaofen, can't be that kind of person, I will still tell you Zhao Yue's secret, you saved my life at the beginning, and helped me become the emperor's favorite concubine,

Even if I repay you this time, we will not owe each other anything from now on. ”

Pei Shaofen said again.

Calm and bitter smiled: "If you don't want to say, I won't be disappointed, I just said that I don't want to know anyone's secrets, if possible, I don't want to know any secrets about anyone in my life." ”

Pei Shaofen bit her fingernails, and her voice lowered: "Zhao Yue has a lover, not only has a lover, but also has an illegitimate child with this lover, and this private child is now learning to make jewelry with Mama Xi at the Shanggong Bureau Teaching Institute.

Zhao Yue's intention is obvious, that is, he wants his daughter to inherit his mantle in the future, to be Si Zhen Si Zhen, and then to be Shang Gong. ”

Calmly swallowed his saliva, and his voice became a little blurry: "Pei Shaofen, let's not use such a thing to hit a person, okay?"

Don't you remember your pain? She is a bad person, but her lover and children are innocent, is it okay to let the innocent people go? ”

Pei Shaofen looked up to the sky and laughed, laughing bitterly.

"Calm, innocent? Falling in love with such a femme fatale woman, you still say that the is innocent? There is no doubt that those who are cheap will be cheap, and when they grow up, they will be just another Zhao Yue, what is there to be pitiful?

I'm doing the right thing for heaven! Since God doesn't accept these sluts, then I'll accept them for God! ”

"Let's go, go back and have a good rest, I promise you, if the emperor is really unlucky, one day, I will beg Sima Nan to let you out of the palace, haven't you always wanted to go out of the palace and live an ordinary life? It may not take long for that day to materialize. ”

Calmly persuaded her.

Pei Shaofen spat on the ground and burst into tears: "Out of the palace? Why should I leave the palace? Who am I going out of the palace with? I am the emperor's treasure, how can I go back to the people to live that kind of life that is not as good as pigs and dogs?

I don't go back, I want to be the queen, I want to be the emperor's favorite woman, the only woman who can accompany the emperor for the rest of his life! ”
