Chapter 155: Opportunity (2nd Update)

"Niangniang, there is something that the old slave can't get the right idea, and you still ask the mother to make a decision?"

"What's the matter?" Yunxi looked up at Mama Xu, obviously surprised.

Mama Xu has been in the palace for the longest time, and Yunxi relies on it more on weekdays, and because she knows the curves and bends in the palace best, Yunxi will habitually listen to Mama Xu's opinion first on many things. Now that I heard that there was something that Mama Xu couldn't decide, Yunxi was a little curious, what kind of thing could be an old man like Mama Xu.

"Recently, didn't Niangniang ask the old slave to pay more attention to the movements of Cining Palace? The old slave often heard about something through the old sisters in the past. Seeing Yunxi's concerned look, Mama Xu said carefully: "There are two sisters beside the Empress Dowager, the elder sister Aunt Chi is in charge of the Empress Dowager's clothes and jewelry, and the younger sister Aunt Xiaochi is in charge of the sprinkling and sweeping envoys, both of whom are considered the Empress Dowager's henchmen, but a few days ago, Aunt Chi was given to death by the Empress Dowager. ”

"Why?" Yun Xi was surprised, she didn't seem to have heard that someone in the harem was being disposed of!

It is common for eunuchs and palace maids in the harem to be harassed and punished, but it is not casual to kill or something, and it is not as exaggerated as it is shown in various works of that civilized era. However, this does not mean that the life of the eunuch and the palace maid is better, in fact, it is the norm in the palace to praise high and low, in addition to the master, the slaves also lean into each other, after all, not everyone can be a celebrity around the master.

Of course, with an identity like the Empress Dowager, it must be easier to dispose of a slave and not let people know, but since the person who was disposed of was the Empress Dowager's confidant, but no news was revealed, it would be unusual.

Henchmen don't have to be ordinary slaves, loyalty and ability are indispensable, and it is not easy to cultivate, even if the empress dowager has many capable people around her, she should not casually give up one of them. Besides, who can not make mistakes, but there is a difference in punishment for big and small things, most of them are punished by kneeling and boarding, and there are very few people who come up with a cane, with an exception like Kangxi, at least Yunxi has been in the palace for so long, and the harem has not seen this situation.

"Externally, it was said that he was careless and broke the Queen Mother's most beloved wishful handle. But according to the old slave, the other party was used as a scapegoat, and the queen mother knew it, but she still took Aunt Chi's life. Mama Xu thought about the news she had found, and she felt very uncomfortable.

It's really not easy for people like them to follow a master, because if they are not careful, they may be abandoned as an outcast by the people they devote all their followers to.

"What does Mama mean to woo this Aunt Xiaochi?" Yunxi looked at Mama Xu and asked with a calm face.

"Yes. The old slave had contact with Aunt Chi and Aunt Xiaochi before leaving the palace, and the relationship was acceptable, and he also had a certain understanding of their hearts. Since she knew that Aunt Chi was made a scapegoat, Aunt Xiao Chi would definitely retaliate, but because of the master ......of the Empress Dowager, "Mama Xu's words were vague, but the meaning of the expression was clearly expressed.

The infighting among the people around the Empress Dowager is an opportunity for Yunxi, if she can help Aunt Xiaochi take revenge, not to mention letting her switch to Yonghe Palace, at least when Yunxi is in trouble, she can help.

Yunxi thought about it slightly, compared the pros and cons in his heart, and then thought about the possibility of being able to do this, and said with some uncertainty: "Mama, do you know who is the person who pushed Aunt Chi to come out as a scapegoat?

The power of the Empress Dowager is so great, both inside and outside the palace, not to mention the Cining Palace, the base camp of the Empress Dowager.

Don't think that the other party is a slave and easy to deal with, there is a saying, it depends on the owner to beat the dog. A person like the Empress Dowager, she can dispose of her minions at will, but she may not be able to tolerate others disposing of her minions on her territory, so this matter is not something she can do by agreeing.

"The old slave inquired, and Aunt Chi came out of the Empress Dowager who was in charge of the living bedding, and she didn't deal with Aunt Chi on weekdays, and recently she didn't know what happened to the Empress Dowager's eyes, and she got a lot of rewards, and there were many people in Cining Palace. If you want to deal with her, you have to start with the Empress Dowager's living and bedding, but the Empress Dowager's food, clothing and daily life are all in charge of a special person, even if Aunt Koike is willing to cooperate with the outside world, I am afraid it will be difficult to move the other party. Although Mama Xu wanted to promote this matter, in the face of Yunxi's question, she still tried her best to help analyze and answer.

Yunxi looked at Mama Xu who was hesitant, her face was strange, this matter was obviously inviolable, but Mama Xu specifically mentioned it, which made Yunxi a little curious: "Mama, what's the difficulty?"

Mama Xu looked at Yunxi with a complicated expression, hesitated again and again, and finally took a step back, knelt at Yunxi's feet and said, "Please also ask Niangniang to forgive your sins, how much is the old slave still a little selfish about Aunt Chi?"

She didn't shirk her responsibility when she said this, Aunt Chi still had some affection for her. At the beginning of Cining Palace, if it weren't for their help, she might not have survived to leave the palace, let alone meet Concubine Zhao. Now that their sisters have an accident and find her, she naturally wants to help, and Concubine Zhao also has the intention of dealing with the Empress Dowager, so she opened her mouth, but Concubine Zhao's words made her realize her recklessness.

I really didn't expect that when she was old, she would still have such impulses.

It's really because the experience of Aunt Koike's two sisters is too uncomfortable, seeing that her sister who helped her in the past is dead and injured, even if she is calm, she will inevitably have an impulse at this moment.

are all slaves, no one wants to be easily abandoned by their own masters after giving everything, the Empress Dowager's actions are really too chilling, and then thinking about the difficult contradiction between Concubine Zhao and the Empress Dowager, Mama Xu's throat is dry, and she realized that the matter of Aunt Chi in front of her was an opportunity for Concubine Zhao to break through Cining Palace, so she moved her mind, and this is why she has today's move.

Yun Xi was stunned, and then sighed and helped Mama Xu up, "Mama's affection is a good thing, but how can Aunt Xiaochi be willing to endure the grief in her heart and wait for the opportunity with me!

When Mama Xu heard this, she fell silent.

Speaking from the heart, what Concubine Zhao said is true, a Yonghe Palace can slowly become solid in the hands of Concubine Zhao, not to mention the Empress Dowager's Cining Palace. Maybe Aunt Xiaochi is here, and they have a chance to break through, but if they want to get rid of Aunt Gui without making the Empress Dowager suspicious, I'm afraid it will not be easy, let alone other plans.

"What Niangniang means, the old slave understands, and the old slave will confirm this matter again. Mama Xu said softly.

Aunt Xiaochi is bent on revenge, if the time is extended indefinitely, even Mama Xu herself is not sure that Aunt Xiaochi will be willing, so for the safety of Concubine Zhao and Sixth Elder Brother, she has to reflect on her eagerness.

Affection is such a thing, only if both parties agree, that is called affection, if it is only her own wishful thinking, then she is not far from death.

Yunxi looked at the touch of green outside through the blue gauze cabinet, his fingers tapped the tabletop, it may be a relationship of some overexertion, his fingertips were red, with a trace of numb pain, not heavy, but people couldn't help but want to frown.

"Confirmation is certain, the key is to see her own temperament, whether she can really calm down. After all, the Empress Dowager is not an ordinary person, as long as she realizes that something is wrong once, then let's not talk about opportunities, it may be difficult to even save her life. Yunxi's tone was deep, but the words pierced Mama Xu's heart like a needle, making her instantly notice the key point she had overlooked: "If this cooperation can really be promoted, the effort is relative, and I help her take revenge, then what can she help me?"

Since it is cooperation, it is necessary to show sincerity, and if she agrees to help her take revenge, she must receive the same thing.

Being in the inner garden of the harem, knowing that a stone can grow ears, how can they use their sympathy at will, after all, sometimes they don't even dare to trust the people around them, not to mention that the other party is still Aunt Xiaochi, who was the confidant of the Empress Dowager.

Since Yunxi has moved the mind of calculating the Empress Dowager, it is impossible for her to wait for the opportunity to come to the door, but whenever possible, she does not mind creating opportunities, and even if she gets the opportunity, she will either not make a move, or she will be able to kill the Empress Dowager as soon as she makes a move.

Mama Xu realized her eagerness, and after easing her emotions, she said in a low voice: "Niangniang is right, Aunt Xiaochi is just carried away by hatred now, not so much that she misses the love with the old slave in the past, but that she is sick and rushed to the doctor, and she wants to give it a try when she has the opportunity." ”

Yunxi smiled and nodded, looking careless as if she didn't take this matter to heart at all, but only she knew that Aunt Xiaochi's appearance disturbed her heart.

I haven't had a plan to move for a long time, and suddenly I encountered an introduction that can become an opportunity, not to mention that Mama Xu is excited, even Yunxi herself can't bear to be moved. If it weren't for the miserable experience in her previous life, she probably wouldn't have been as cautious as she is now.

In the evening, hearing that Kangxi turned over her brand, Yunxi did not feel any surprise, during this time, because of the matter of the seventh elder brother, Kangxi had not set foot in the harem for several days. Now Kangxi has shocked those courtiers with ulterior motives in one fell swoop, and he must have to relax, originally Yunxi thought that he would turn over Wei Chang's sign first as before, but he didn't want to turn over her sign first this time.

At this moment, the Empress Dowager is afraid that she will have to think about it again, and most of the concubines in the harem will have to sleep at night.

However, because of the appearance of Aunt Xiaochi, Yunxi rarely took the initiative to take the initiative, after all, because of the repeated beatings of the Queen Mother, she has always behaved very honestly, and she does not come out of anything, even if she is made difficult, she will fight back directly, and there are few times when she is scheming. Although I don't know if this impression is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, Yunxi knows that if she wants to let someone with the ability defect to herself, she should first show her advantages, and being favored is her biggest advantage.

Of course, she is not the only one who is favored in this harem, but she will let people know that she is not only favored, but she also has enough strength to climb up.
