Chapter 2: The Pretty Concubine Fights the Eunuch and Escapes into the Deep Valley (13)
Wu Degui was ordered by Concubine De Niangniang to send someone to secretly follow Jiang Dexing, the envoy of the Tai Hospital, the next day, the person who followed found Jiang Dexing to a teahouse, the person who followed Jiang Dexing after Jiang Dexing entered the teahouse, he then followed in, Jiang Dexing entered a luxurious box, the person who followed sat down at a tea table by the wall of the hall, asked for tea, he stared at the luxury box while tasting tea, after a while, Shen Deyi also came to the teahouse, walked into the luxury box, the person who followed did not dare to follow up the box, drinking tea at the table by the window in the hall, and continued to observe。
More than two hours later, Shen Deyi walked out of the box first, left the teahouse, and a quarter of an hour later, Jiang Dexing also left, and the people who followed him continued to follow Jiang Dexing, and Jiang Dexing returned to the Tai Hospital.
The person who followed him returned to the queen's dormitory, and found Wu Degui in the right wing room inside the gate, and he reported to Eunuch Wu about the situation of tracking Jiang Dexing, and Eunuch Wu was very happy to hear it, and he thought to himself: " The reason why Jiang Dexing has so much courage to dare to go to the queen's bedroom to play insidious means turns out that it is really Shen Deyi who is behind him, Concubine De is really very resourceful, her speculation is very correct, Jiang Dexing is the lackey of the front desk, and it is Shen Deyi who is engaged in conspiracy behind the scenes, it seems that the queen's condition suddenly worsened, it is very likely that Jiang Dexing came to the dormitory two days ago to engage in a ghost trick, today Jiang Dexing went to the teahouse to meet with Shen Deyi, it should be this lackey who did the unsightly thing, and hurriedly ran to report to the master, Shen Deyi is insidious enough, rampant enough, and dared to instruct the imperial hospital to go to the queen's bedroom to release medicine to harm the queen, perhaps。 Behind Shen Deyi, there are more important people who are in cahoots with him, otherwise, Shen Deyi may not dare to plan such a trick to harm the queen!"
Wu Degui got the news from his subordinates, he didn't dare to put the news on hold, he hurriedly ran to the living room of the queen's bedroom, and reported it to Concubine De, Concubine De listened to it and felt that her previous speculation was not wrong, behind Jiang Dexing. Sure enough, it was Shen Deyi. Although Wu Degui's subordinates were unable to find out what Jiang Dexing and Shen Deyi were talking about in the teahouse box, it can be inferred that what they talked about must be related to the aggravation of the queen's illness.
Of course. This is just a kind of inference. It's just that there is no real speculation. Concubine De knew very well in her heart that she could not effectively deal with Shen Deyi with this kind of speculation, if Shen Deyi knew that she had such a guess. In order to paralyze the enemy, Concubine De knew that the best way was to pretend to know nothing about Shen Deyi's conspiracy.
Considering that there was no evidence, Concubine De said to Wu Degui: " Gonggong Wu, right now your people just saw the surname Jiang and Shen Deyi together, what they talked about in the teahouse box, we don't know, what they did, we don't know, although Shen Deyi is very likely to instruct Jiang Dexing to go to the queen's bedroom to put medicine, but, let's say that what we understand is only a possibility, and we haven't caught their real handle, so, in order to paralyze Shen Deyi, our best way is not to make a noise, you let your people continue to follow Jiang Dexing, pay attention to his movements, and wait until there is evidence。 ”
"Concubine De Niangniang is very thoughtful, the slave let his subordinates continue to follow the surname Jiang, if your speculation is correct, then, they must have new actions, according to the slave's guess, Shen Deyi may instruct the surname Jiang to inquire about the changes in the queen's condition, next, how should we deal with it?
Concubine De thought for a while, she said: "We have two coping plans to choose from, "virtual" and "real", the "real" plan is to truthfully explain the true situation of the queen's repeated illness, but this method is somewhat risky, in case the queen mother finds out that the queen's condition is aggravated, and no longer let the concubine treat the queen, then, the queen is in danger, if the queen mother still lets the concubine treat the queen, the concubine is sure to cure the queen's illness; Alternatively, you can also deliberately exaggerate the queen's illness, and say that the queen's illness has suddenly become very strict, and whether it can be cured, is still a suspense, this kind of exaggerated illness has a great advantage, which can make Shen Deyi and others think that they have succeeded in putting medicine in the queen's bedroom, so that they will be very proud, relax their vigilance, and will not harm the queen again, they will find a way to put the responsibility for the queen's aggravation of the illness to the concubine to bear, but if we use this method of exaggerating the condition, Once the queen mother or queen knows, they will be very anxious, if they are held accountable and know that we are deliberately exaggerating the condition, then, you and I will be guilty of deliberate deception, this concubine wants to listen to Gonggong Wu's construction, which method is better?"
"The slave thinks that for the time being, you can wait and see what happens, first see if Shen Deyi and they will really come to inquire about the queen's condition, if they really come, the slave will stop them outside first, and then the slave will come to the living room to report to you, what to do, listen to your orders. Wu Degui said.
"Gonggong Wu is very good, just do as you say, wait and see what happens, and then take countermeasures according to the situation, however, the measures we should take should not let the queen and the emperor know, lest they worry about the queen's condition, and also, we can't let Shen Deyi and others know, if they know that the queen's illness is not strict, they may also resort to tricks, we must try to avoid letting the queen mother, The emperor is worried, and he wants to prevent the enemy from making another rampant attack, so paralyzing Shen Deyi and them is the best plan. Concubine De said.
Wu Degui listened to Concubine De's analysis, he admired her very much, he thought: "In the eyes of everyone before, Concubine De Niangniang was just a gentle and elegant concubine, and the vast majority of people in the harem failed to see that she was a very wise woman. An extraordinary woman with both wisdom and courage, this time, Shen Deyi, the old fox, has really met an opponent, in front of Concubine De, he will be seen through any tricks he wants to play, and Shen Deyi is likely to be defeated because of his contempt for Concubine De!"
Thinking of this, Wu Degui completely admired Concubine De, he said: "Concubine De Niangniang is far-sighted, the servants all listen to you, now waiting for Shen Deyi or Jiang Dexing and others to probe the queen's condition, according to the slaves, since they already have insidious actions in front, there will definitely be actions to listen to the results behind, and they will definitely jump out again." Wu Degui said.
"Gonggong Wu, observing Shen Deyi's movements, I can only rely on you, this concubine should focus on curing the queen's illness now, right now, this concubine must first let the queen's illness stabilize, and then prescribe effective medicine according to her physical symptoms, curing the queen's illness is the key to the key, and when the queen's body is completely recovered, we can occupy a very advantageous position, and when the time comes, we can also ask the emperor to help us." Concubine De analyzed.
"Concubine De is right, right now, whether from the point of view of conscience or from the perspective of the situation, curing the queen's illness is the top priority, the queen is healthy, the queen mother, the emperor will feel overjoyed, at that time, you will be respected by people in the harem, and then, if the emperor will appreciate you, Shen Deyi They may not dare to do anything to you. Wu Degui said.
"Now I can only take one step at a time, the situation will change at any time, the harem has always been a place of right and wrong, who knows what accidents will occur, this concubine is in an environment like the harem, she has always been worried and afraid, danger may come to her at any time, this concubine often tries to make herself optimistic, however, there is always a threat in front of her, it is really difficult to be optimistic, according to the slave's guess, the reason why Shen Deyi dares to be so rampant is very likely that Concubine Xian is supporting him behind his back, Concubine Xian is a very difficult woman, don't look at her usually in the harem Xiàn is very kind and polite, in fact, she is a very dangerous character"Concubine De said.
Wu Degui said: "Now we have insufficient evidence, and we can't compete head-on with Concubine Xian, Concubine Xian is a very powerful person, she is good to everyone on the surface, but in fact she has to calculate everyone, she is extremely jealous, and she will not let go of those who offend her." ”
"Gonggong Wu is very discerning, you see Concubine Xian very accurately, she is indeed a person who has a set behind the surface, the words that come out of the mouth of this kind of person are always very sweet, but there are always dirty ghost ideas hidden in his heart, which is very annoying!"
"The slave has long been disgusted with her, she is a sinister woman who hides a knife in her smile, of course, for the virtuous concubine, Concubine De doesn't have to be too elevated, for people like her, the queen mother will not fail to see her essence, as the saying goes' Smart but clever mistake', Concubine Xian thinks she is very smart, in fact, this is very stupid, the emperor may have seen through her, so he began to alienate her, she will not have many opportunities to toss in the inner palace, if the queen's two sudden aggravation of illness is related to her planning behind the scenes, once the matter is exposed, her fate must be very miserable, whether it is conduct or intelligence, Concubine Xian is definitely not your opponent, the slave believes that the final winner must be Concubine De. Wu Degui said.
"Gonggong Wu, don't praise this concubine, for people like Concubine Xian, we can't take it lightly, sometimes, people with bad hearts are difficult to deal with, okay, let's not talk about Concubine Xian, now the important thing is to deal with Shen Deyi first, he is very familiar with Yin moves, we must be vigilant, Gonggong Wu must be more careful to guard the queen's bedroom, don't be careless, beware of Shen Deyi and others will also use new poisonous tricks!" Concubine De said. (To be continued......)
