The charming empress is too good at fishing, and the ruthless emperor has fallen

Chapter 46: Eat your own big melon: This time it’s really over!

"You did a good job. It seems that I have misunderstood you, but this also proves that I did not choose the wrong person." Mrs. Li seemed quite satisfied.

"Madam, you are too flattering. Madam allows me to live such a good life with fine clothes and fine food. It is my duty to share her worries and relieve her worries." Jing Shu had a just right and humble smile on her face.

"Now that Shen Guifei has been eliminated, you should have no other worries. Next, you must remember the mission that the master and I gave you." Mrs. Li continued.

"Yes."

Jingshu placed her position very low, but in her heart she was thinking about what to say next, "But accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger.

"If I were to blow the whistle on His Majesty too directly and say that I would allow the Grand Tutor to join the cabinet, I might be suspected of interfering in politics in the harem, which is a taboo for the emperor.

"So I have to be particularly careful about this matter. I can't take the initiative to mention it to the Holy One. I can only wait for the opportunity.

"In addition, Master Taifu is outside the palace. He wants to do something that is in line with His Majesty's will and eliminate more troubles for His Majesty. In this way, when His Majesty is happy, he will mention Mr. Taifu in front of me and I can say some words of recommendation."

Mrs. Li nodded repeatedly.

She looked at Jing Shu and asked for advice: "Well, what you said makes sense. Although our sage is young, the city is very deep. The master often said that he could not guess the sage's thoughts. So in your opinion, what trouble does the sage have? , does he need the master’s help to eradicate him?”

When Jing Shu heard this, her eyes flashed, and she suddenly thought that she might as well take advantage of the master.

So she suggested: "For example, Prime Minister Xie is forming cliques in the court, which has made the Holy Emperor dissatisfied.

"If the Taifu can help His Majesty to remove Prime Minister Xie's minions little by little and force Prime Minister Xie to return all the power of the government to His Majesty, I believe that His Majesty will definitely remember the Taifu as a great meritorious service."

These are just random guesses made by Jing Shu based on the information about Xie Xiang that she had eaten from Wang Zhong before.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Li looked at her with a look of approval in her eyes.

"I can't believe that Zi Ling did something right when he picked you up on the street and brought you back to the Taifu's Mansion."

"Ziling?" Jingshu looked confused.

"What? You don't remember him? You sold your body on the street to bury your father, but the bullies bullied you and wanted to take you back. It was Ziling who saw that you and Nannan looked alike, so he saved you and buried you for you. Father, I will take you back to the Tutor's Mansion again." Mrs. Li said with a frown.

When Jing Shu heard this, a trace of pain and confusion appeared on her pretty face.

She stroked her forehead and said: "Madam, you don't know. In order to save the Holy Lord, I had a high fever at night and was so dizzy that the imperial doctor didn't diagnose me in time, which caused me to forget some things. As for this Zi Ling that Madam said, , I really can’t remember it at all.

"Also, I can't remember who I should contact if I want to send a message to the Tutor's Mansion. I hope Madam will forgive me."

Hearing this, Mrs. Li's face suddenly showed a look of surprise.

She frowned and was speechless for a moment, but something came to her mind:

"Wei Ziling is the adopted son of the master and me, but he had an inappropriate affair with Nannan. This is really a scandal. The fewer people who know about it, the better. Jingshu has forgotten it. This is a good thing.

"But in order to be with Nannan, Wei Ziling had long been secretly looking for someone who looked like Nannan, and finally met Jingshu three years ago who sold his body to bury his father on the street.

"Zi Ling placed her in another courtyard and trained her according to Nannan's every word and deed, so that one day he and Nannan would elope so that Jingshu could take her place and not be discovered.

"It's just that his thoughts have been noticed by the master a long time ago, and Jingshu's existence was also quickly known to the master.

"The master has long thought of using Jingshu to seek benefits for the Taifu Mansion, so as soon as Ziling and Nannan eloped, the master asked Jingshu to take Nannan's place and become the concubine of the East Palace.

"Nanny has been pampered and pampered since she was a child, and she eloped with Wei Ziling. Sooner or later, she will go home because she can't bear the hardships. At that time, this respected lady will have to give way to her.

"The higher Jingshu's status, the better. Anyway, everything about her will belong to Nannan.

"It's just that when the time comes to get rid of Jingshu and let Nannan take her place, it will take a lot of planning. But fortunately, I have already arranged everything and am just waiting for Nannan to come back..."

After Jingshu entered the palace, she had eaten her own melon more than once.

It can be said that every time, it is not a good thing.

But there was no time like today that always made her heart tremble.

Not only does Madam Li want her to replace the Tutor's real daughter, but she also plans to kill her in the future so that her daughter can enjoy the benefits?

Jing Shu spent a lot of effort to restrain herself and prevent any emotion from showing on her face.

Since Mrs. Li said that everything has been arranged, that means that she is sure to kill her, and there must be her insider in the palace, and I am afraid there is more than one.

"Madam?" At this time, Jingshu remained calm and pretended to be confused, "What's wrong with you? What are you thinking about? Can you tell me who is the person in charge of delivering messages in the palace? This person is now in the palace where?"

"Oh, it's not urgent." Mrs. Li came back to her senses.

She looked at Jing Shu and asked another question, "Although you said well and did the right thing before, now the Holy Emperor has not come to your Yicui Palace for several days, and you have fallen out of favor. The most important thing now is to return to favor as soon as possible.

"After you regain my favor, I will ask that person to contact you proactively."

When Jing Shu heard this, her eyes flashed.

She said: "Madam, Concubine Xie hates me. She wants me to die. If I don't plan carefully, I'm afraid I will die in Concubine Xie's hands at some point, and then I won't be able to repay my gratitude to the Taifu Mansion.

"I hope that after Madam returns, she will discuss it with the Grand Tutor, sort out the current situation in the former dynasty, and hand it over to that person so that he can pass it on to me, so that I can know how to use the taboos of the former dynasty to deal with it in the harem. Thank you, Concubine."

"What you said makes sense, I understand."

Mrs. Li thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

She looked at Jing Shu with a hint of cruelty in her eyes: "I have already said what I need to say. Don't think that since you are in the harem now and have a high status, I can't do anything to you." Done!

"If you dare to betray me, I can guarantee that all the glory and wealth you have today will be lost in an instant!"

"Don't worry, Madam, I will never betray Madam." Jing Shu's eyes showed just the right amount of fear.

"Hmph, it's good that you know! Remember, a pheasant can't become a phoenix! Even if you occupy this rich phoenix's nest for a while, sooner or later, you will have to give way to the real phoenix!"

After beating Jingshu again, Mrs. Li stood up and deliberately raised her voice and said, "My Lady, you are not feeling well, please rest. I won't disturb you anymore."

After saying that, he left the main hall and prepared to leave the palace.

Just at this time, Xiu Qing came back with ginger soup cooked in the imperial kitchen.

Mrs. Li saw her, pulled her aside and asked her for a while, then left with a look of relief and satisfaction.

"Empress, why did Madam leave so soon?" Xiu Qing asked strangely as soon as he came in.

Jing Shu ignored her and slumped on the couch with some exhaustion.

Recalling the turbulent waves of melons that Mrs. Li had brought her, she felt for a moment that it was over, and for a while she felt that it was really over this time!

It was not until evening that Lu Zan came unexpectedly.
