Dressed as the villain's stepmother

She always found a way to take revenge on the dirty things the Prime Minister had done before.

"By the way, if I remember correctly, I have seen Qiqiaocao in the gift list that His Majesty placed in the Imperial Study Room before."

Concubine Xi quickly calmed down her expression and asked.

"Since that thing has been written on the gift list, how dare the envoy from the Western Regions give it to you?"

She didn't listen carefully just now, so naturally she had no way of noticing the strangeness in it. Now, she was actually feeling some puzzling emotions.

There is no need for the envoys of the Western Regions to dig their own graves. If the emperor is really angry because of this matter, no matter who is involved, there will be no benefit.

It may even provoke disputes between the Central Plains and the Western Regions.

At most, it will be a lose-lose outcome.

"Hasn't the gift list been replaced by him a long time ago?" Jiang Lianzhu asked subconsciously, feeling a little nervous in her heart.

Could it be that what the envoys from the Western Regions told him were all lies?

Their careful calculations ended up being nothing in the end.

"I don't know much about this matter, but I definitely saw the Qiqiaocao grass on the gift list. There is absolutely no way it can be faked."

Concubine Xi could only remember these.

She was even thinking about what herbal medicine had such a strange name.

"I'm afraid there's something wrong with the envoy from the Western Regions, otherwise it wouldn't be like this."

Jiang Lianzhu's heart suddenly sank, and the hands hanging by her sides clenched tightly into fists.

"Have you already used this Qiqiaocao grass?"

Seeing the look on Jiang Lianzhu's face, Concubine Xi had already guessed something, and she asked unhurriedly.

"Already used."

Jiang Lianzhu's tone was filled with helplessness.

It is impossible for them to find another Qiqiaocao grass in the capital now. If the emperor finds out about this matter in the future, they will inevitably suffer disaster again.

It's really a dilemma.

The envoy had already confirmed that he had changed the etiquette a long time ago, so why is this happening now?

"Tsk, if this is the case, then you guys will definitely be in trouble later, but I have a way, I don't know if it is feasible."

Concubine Xi shrugged inaudibly.

Jiang Lianzhu did not answer immediately, but looked at her with some vigilance: "Why do you want to help me with this matter?"

Concubine Xi is in the harem and there is no need to get involved in these things unless it is to achieve a certain purpose of her own.

"Miss Jiang should still remember that it was the Prime Minister's hands and feet that caused the third child to go to hell. Now I am not only helping you, but also helping myself."

Concubine Xi confessed very calmly and waved her hand to ask all the maids waiting on the side to leave.

"You can just put the blame for this crime on the Prime Minister. He has the task of taking care of the envoy. If Your Majesty is to hold him accountable, you can directly say that he did not deal with it properly, otherwise there will be no That’s what happens.”

"But--"

Jiang Lianzhu opened her mouth, feeling a little guilty.

There is nothing wrong with what Concubine Xi said, but who knows whether it can be implemented.

The Prime Minister is a person who likes to calculate, and he must have clearly calculated the pros and cons of these things behind his back. Maybe their actions have already been expected by him.

"Don't worry, it's not just you who are involved in this matter. I will naturally intervene when the time comes."

Concubine Xi said calmly.

Six doors.

A boy looked around nervously in front of the six doors. He couldn't bear his temper and took a few steps forward. He was stopped by the guards outside the door.

"who are you?"

The guard asked expressionlessly.

They were used to people trying to break into the six doors without permission, and their current attitude was not a good one.

"I, I want to see your governor. There are some things that must be explained to him face to face, otherwise there will be trouble."

The young man was slightly frightened by the guard outside the door, and even his voice became a little softer.

If I had known that these six doors were so difficult to enter, I should have taken the token from the master.

"There are so many people who want to see our leader every day. How can you get in line?"

The look on the guard's face was still very disdainful, and he didn't bother to pay attention to what the boy just said.

"I advise you to get as far away as you can now. Don't wait until then to cause trouble. We will chop your head off to the ground."

The boy gritted his teeth and took a step back.

Yang Fei walked out of it at this moment and looked at the boy standing under the steps.

"You have something to ask us from the Six Doors to investigate?"

His attitude was much better than that of the two guards, and the look on the boy's face warmed up slightly.

"No, I'm from the palace. I came here to deliver a message to Master Liao on the order of my master."

The boy said.

"I came out of the palace in a hurry this time, and I didn't bring anything to prove my identity. I hope you can be merciful and let me in."

Yang Fei looked at the boy from beginning to end, then reluctantly nodded and led him inside.

The guards guarding outside immediately became unhappy.

"Mr. Yang, why did you bring this unknown person in? Who knows what he has in mind? Maybe he just wants to harm our six doors!"

"That's right, he was very coy when facing us. He didn't dare to say that he came from the palace. Now the security in the whole capital is being tightened. Don't let anyone take advantage of this."

The two guards couldn't stand it. Yang Fei obviously had no ability, but he could be Liao Yunchuan's right-hand man in the six doors.

Now that he finally found the place where he might have made a mistake, he was even more happy and continued to find faults in it.

"Do I still need to explain to you how I do things?"

Yang Fei glared at the two guards.

"The boss has already told you before that if anyone comes looking for you, you must report it inside. So what are you doing now?"

"But I really don't pay attention to the boss's orders at all."

Several guards immediately did not dare to speak and could only watch the two of them walking in one after another.

After walking inside, Yang Fei stopped again and turned to look at the boy following behind him: "There is no one else now. You can always tell me which nobleman in the palace is responsible for you." Sent?"

"He is the envoy from the Western Regions.".
