Since the Empress Dowager Qin took power, she has promoted the Qin family greatly, not only Qin Yuankai occupied the original Gu Qingming's position, but even the other sons and nephews and collateral of the Qin family also occupied a considerable proportion of positions in the court.

After calculation, one-third of the people in the entire Daning Imperial Court are members of the Qin family, or can be related to the Qin family.

Even though she already has the supreme authority in her hands, the Empress Dowager Qin is not arrogant enough to sit on the dragon chair directly, but as if Shen Ze had just ascended the throne, she listened to the government, and after the early dynasty was over, she still returned to Jianzhang Palace.

It's just that the twists and turns that were originally sent to Changming Palace were all sent to Jianzhang Palace.

After the Empress Dowager Qin finished reading the recital, taking advantage of the good weather and good sunshine, she asked Aunt Jinxiu to wait and go to the garden outside for a walk, after all, she had been busy for a long time and had not seen the scenery outside.

There are fewer and fewer people in the palace, and there is a lot of depression, but Wu Qianwen is still staying in the palace as Gu Qingming's fiancΓ©e, and she has not been affected in any way because of Gu Qingming's debasement.

In this regard, the Queen Mother also gave a corresponding explanation - although Gu Qingming was demoted, sooner or later he would return to the court, but not now, but after the Empress Dowager Qin completely stabilized the court.

Maybe at that time, Jiangshan will really change his surname to Qin.

The weather gradually became hotter, Jinxiu helped the Empress Dowager Qin, walking slowly, and the guard of honor behind her blocked the slightly dazzling sunlight, making the Empress Dowager walk more comfortably.

"What news is coming from the various feudal countries?" The Queen Mother is always worried about the matter of the feudal countries, since she is now in power, she must find a way to destroy these feudal countries in order to consolidate her position.

"There is news from the other six countries, but the news from Yiguo this month has not yet arrived. Aunt Jinxiu replied, "In the past few months in Yiguo, the news has been later than usual, and the slave and maid wonder if our spies in Yiguo have been discovered." If this is the case, then King Yi is very doubtful. ”

"Lu Yingquan and Yun Yao are now in Yiguo, with Yun Yao here, Lu Yingquan will be much safer. Even if the two of them were discovered, there would be another person, she had been hiding inside for three years, and it would be impossible for her to be exposed so easily. The Queen Mother said, "Go back and take a look, maybe the news will come today." ”

While speaking, the Queen Mother and Jinxiu returned to Jianzhang Palace.

As the Queen Mother expected, although He Meiren's news was late, it still came.

It was written that Lu Yingquan followed Shen Che to the mausoleum in the barren mountain for some reason, and it seemed that he had discovered something, but the Empress Dowager Jiang was too strict, and Yingquan had something in his hand, but he couldn't pass it on. He Meiren plans to take the initiative to reveal her identity, get the information in Yingquan's hands, and pass it on.

After reading it, the Queen Mother handed it to Jinxiu, and then asked, "What do you think?"

"The news from He Meiren's side should be true, Ning Lan's death and Yun Yao's affairs in Yiwang Palace were also reported by her, so there shouldn't be any problems. Jinxiu read the letter, and then said.

"Then do you think Lu Yingquan and Yun Yao will betray the mourning family?" Empress Dowager Qin asked again, "You must know that the mourning family originally designed Yun Yao's death to separate the two of them, and the purpose was to separate and control them. But now that they are still in one place, Ning Lan is also dead, which means that the mourning family has nothing in their hands that can control them. ”

"This slave is not sure. Jinxiu shook her head, "Until now, Lu Yingquan has not had any clues that she wants to rebel, although she concealed Yun Yao's news and did not report it, but this is not her selfishness, she is worried that the Queen Mother will attack Yun Yao again." Moreover, she also sends letters back every month, but for these two months, it seems that the days are a little inaccurate. ”

Yun Yao and Lu Yingquan still don't know that He Meiren is also a member of the mourning family, and their every move is also under the control of the mourning family. Empress Dowager Qin said, "Since there is no evidence that they have rebelled, then the mourning family will believe them again." Send a message to He Meiren, asking her to get the information in Lu Yingquan's hands as soon as possible, and the mourning family wants to know what is in the barren mountain. ”

"Yes. Jinxiu listened to the Queen Mother's words, nodded, and wrote a letter to the Yiwang Palace.

When He Meiren received the news, she was about to go to Han Meiren with her personal palace maid Xiaomei, after all, she had also set it up before, and it would be a little strange if she didn't visit.

It stands to reason that since He Meiren is close to Han Meiren, she should act immediately, but she has been standing still, just to wait for Empress Dowager Qin's order. But what no one knows is that what has happened in Queen Yi's harem in the past month is all driven behind by this ordinary and inconspicuous He Meiren.

So to some extent, Yun Yao guessed correctly, so many palace concubines have had accidents in the past month, and it is obvious that there is a promoter behind the scenes, and this promoter is He Meiren.

He Meiren burned the letter of the Empress Dowager Qin, and said, "Xiaomei, bring the handkerchief I personally embroidered a few days ago, let's go find Sister Han." ”

"Yes, beauty. Xiaomei nodded, took the handkerchief and put it in the brocade box, and went to Han Meiren with He Meiren.

Han Meiren has been depressed recently, because she has also heard about the things that happened in the harem, and she always feels a little worried.

"Beauty, the slave maid thinks these things are too evil, and she has never encountered such an evil thing. Honglian said, "The slave maid has calculated carefully, since Lu Meiren came to Yiguo, up to now, the harem has lost twenty-three concubines, which is an unprecedented thing in the past." ”

"What's the use of you saying this? I can't fight that Lu Yingquan, there was no injustice in the past, there is no enmity in the near future, she won't attack me, right?" Han Meiren said angrily.

"Beauty, have you forgotten that a month ago at the gate of Suochuntai, He Meiren invited Lu Meiren to come to us together, and you refused? Maybe Lu Meiren will hold a grudge because of this. Honglian said, "Didn't Zhao Meiren and Wei Liangren land on the Tao of Lu Meiren because of the battle of words?"

When Han Meiren heard this, the worry in her heart was even worse, but she didn't care about anything, she just asked: "I remembered when I mentioned this, Sister He said that she wanted to come and chat with me, why hasn't there been any movement for a month?"

"What did my sister say, isn't my sister here?" Han Meiren's voice fell, and he heard He Meiren's voice sounding outside the hall, and the words were close, and it didn't seem like she was deliberately avoiding people.

When Han Meiren heard the voice, she immediately greeted her and asked, "Why are you only here now?" Your Highness loves Lu Yingquan and has never come to the harem, I am bored to death." ”

"Blame me for being clumsy, I want to say that I embroidered a handkerchief for my sister as a gift for a visit, but I embroidered it many times without success. "He Meiren is used to making excuses to ask Xiaomei to send things over.

Han Meiren was very happy when she saw the beautifully made handkerchief, and thanked her repeatedly, and then the two began to chat.

This He Meiren usually has a quiet and peaceful temperament, but Han Meiren is directly hearty and will not beat around the bush, and the two seem to have similar temperaments, so the chat is also very close.

But chatting and chatting, He Meiren began to look sad, looking at Han Meiren, her face was full of expressions of wanting to speak.

"Does my sister have something to say to me? There is no one else in this palace, but it doesn't hurt for you to say it. Han Meiren saw the clue and took the initiative to ask.

"I feel unworthy for my sister. He Meiren opened her mouth and said, "In terms of qualifications and temperament, it should be my sister who is promoted to Mrs., and it is okay to have a Yao beauty in front of me, but now Lu Meiren is menacing, I am afraid that my sister is in danger." ”

When Han Meiren heard this, she chuckled in her heart, and suddenly felt a little bad.

In normal times, she would have been able to hear that this was a provocative remark from the beauty of the people, but today it was different. Honglian just said in front of her that she offended Lu Yingquan because of her words, and she was likely to be hated by Lu Yingquan, and now He Meiren emphasized this matter again, so she believed it.

However, Han Meiren was not completely clueless, she pretended not to understand and asked, "What did my sister say this?"

"Sister, haven't you heard about what happened in the harem recently? More than 20 of them, except for Zhao Meiren and Wei Liangren, who died before, more than 20 palace concubines have had accidents this month, and everyone lived in harmony in previous years, where was there so much turmoil? All of this is said to be because Lu Meiren came. He Meiren lowered her voice and whispered.

That's right, that's what she's really meant to push everything to happen this month β€” to make Han Mi panic and then use it for her.

"But it doesn't have much to do with me, I didn't mess with her much, she wouldn't have poisoned me. Han Meiren was really a little panicked and said so.

"My sister didn't mess with her, but my sister got in her way. There is only one position left for Mrs., and if she is promoted from among our beauties, only my sister can compete with her now. He Meiren said, "I haven't come to my sister for a month, although I want to give my sister a gift, and another reason is that I don't want Lu Meiren to think that I am good friends with my sister, and I think that my sister is pulling forces in the harem and wants to compete with her, so I will attack my sister in advance." ”

"You have a heart, but if she really wants to deal with me, I don't have the ability to resist, anyway, His Highness spoils her. Han Meiren was affected by He Meiren's words, and her face was a little stupid.

"In fact, there is no way, with my sister's appearance, if I can conceive His Royal Highness's child, when the time comes, the mother will be more expensive than the child, and she will naturally be able to overpower her. He Meiren said seemingly casually, "Lu Meiren was pregnant last time, but she couldn't keep it, if my sister has this idea, you have to watch out for her." ”

When Han Meiren heard this, her heart moved, and she seemed to feel that there was a certain truth.

"But His Highness has been in Linglong Pavilion all the time, and he doesn't come to me, even if I want to get pregnant, I can't do it. Han Meiren sighed.

He Meiren saw that Han Meiren seemed to be faintly hooked, so she leaned over and said something in her ear, seeing Han Meiren's surprised look, He Meiren smiled a little weirdly.
