Favoring concubines and killing wives? The miraculous doctor mistress went crazy after her rebirth

Some people in the harem were in a panic, fearing that the fire would burn them.

Some of them looked gloating, waiting to see Concubine Hui's show.

I also hope that Concubine Hui will be banished to the cold palace and her position will be vacated.

Therefore, the entry of Princess Mindai into the palace and the arrest of Prince Consort Song were like a fuse that tore apart the peace in the palace.

The harem is even more turbulent.

Concubine Hui also understood that there was no absolutely safe place in the palace.

It is also impossible to hide secrets absolutely.

Therefore, I believe that everyone in the palace must have known about Minmin's entry into the palace.

With a little inquiry, we found out what happened to Prince Consort Song.

Concubine Hui also hurriedly sent someone to take a letter to her family.

Soon, the wife of the Minister of War, Wang, Huifei's sister-in-law, learned the news.

When Minister Xue came back, he read the letter and frowned deeply.

He paced back and forth in the study. Although he was usually calm, at this moment he showed a trace of uneasiness and panic.

But Minister Xue quickly calmed down and called his wife Wang and said, "You should find a way to meet with the wife of Duke Dingguo and find out what's going on with Song Xiangjian."

Wang naturally also heard the news outside and knew that Song Xiangjian had been arrested as a spy.

"Master, can we get involved at this time?"

"Will the emperor become suspicious?"

Shangshu Xue is extremely cautious when serving as the Minister of War, because this position is very important and involves military power.

He never formed cliques for personal gain and rarely got close to officials.

In addition, his sister, Concubine Hui, gave birth to a princess, not a prince, and was not involved in the fight between the princes, so the emperor still trusted him.

But if she interacted with the powerful at this time, Wang would worry about the emperor.

Minister Xue asked, "Do you think that if we don't move around or do anything, the emperor won't suspect anything?"

"Song Xiangjian has been arrested. He is the consort of Princess Mindai, and Concubine Hui is implicated. Do you think we in the Shangshu Mansion will be fine if we hide there?"

"We have no choice now. You go to Duke Dingguo's mansion to pay your respects to his wife. It would be great if you can see her. It would also be good if you can get a piece of news. At least we will know what to prepare for."

Wang knew the situation was dire, so she asked in a low voice, "What if the wife of Duke Dingguo doesn't show up?"

Wang had not had much contact with the wife of Duke Dingguo before.

Just say a few words when we meet at some banquets or palace banquets.

But not very familiar.

The wife of Duke Dingguo looks gentle and kind, but in fact her abilities should not be underestimated, and all of her family members are very powerful.

"If they don't see each other, it can also convey information, which means that there is really something wrong with Song Xiangjian. We should also make some preparations."

Wang thought for a moment and said, "Why not ask Zhize to go find Leng Shizi and ask him?"

"Zhi Ze has played with Leng Shi Zi before, so they should be quite familiar with each other. It should be okay to ask for some information, right?"

Minister Xue shook his head and said, "No!"

"If we ask Master Leng directly about this matter, and if Song Xiangjian becomes a spy, then we will most likely be classified as a spy and become an obstacle to Master Leng's work."

"If the emperor knew about this, he would definitely not be happy."

"It will also have an impact on Zhize's career."

When the emperor was young, he also wanted to work hard to govern the country, but when he got old, he tended to doubt this and that.

I became a little more suspicious.

Fortunately, the emperor was not confused.

So as long as they are careful and don't make any mistakes, they'll be fine.

But Minister Xue was afraid that Song Xiangjian was really a spy and had done many unforgivable things.

Wang sighed and said, "Zhi Ze and Leng Shi Zi are of the same age. Look at how Leng Shi Zi has helped the Crown Prince with so many things, but Zhi Ze didn't perform well in the Spring Examination."

Minister Xue also wanted his son to work in one of the six ministries.

He has the connections to smooth things over, but the key is that his son must also pass the imperial examination and become a second-class Jinshi.

The emperor attached great importance to the imperial examination and used it to select talents.

Their son Zhize was studying seriously.

I plan to take the exam again in three years.

"At his age, he's already a juren, which is pretty good. Don't put too much pressure on him."

"Now just think about keeping things peaceful. You should also check our house carefully to see if there are any people planted here. Don't let any spies get in."

"There are also some people who are close to Princess Min Dai's mansion. They should be screened thoroughly and no longer be reused."

There is no guarantee that one of them was not inserted by Song Xiangjian.

Just to keep an eye on their every move in the mansion.

Now thinking of Song Xiangjian, Minister Xue's eyes turned cold.

He pondered carefully and said, "I didn't think there was anything wrong with Song Xiangjian before, because he really behaved well and always put Princess Min Dai first."

"But now if you look closely, there are problems everywhere."

Minister Xue had some guesses in his mind at this time, but they still needed to be confirmed.

Otherwise, if Song Xiangjian was fine and was released, if they did nothing during this period of time, Princess Mindai would definitely hold a grudge against their family.

It is normal for the royal family to want to do something and seek revenge.

Minister Xue felt that Princess Mindai was acting a little paranoid.

Wang knew what to do.

The next day, Wang sent a letter to Concubine Hui in the palace.

In the past, some concubines would go to the palace where Concubine Hui lived to sit and talk every day, and some people would specifically look for her to talk.

But now Concubine Hui's palace is deserted.

Apart from the people in her own palace, no one else came.

Concubine Hui has lived in the palace for so many years and has seen the fickleness of human nature.

But right now, she is still not used to it.

But after seeing the letter sent by her parents' home, Concubine Hui calmed down a little.

……

Dingguogong Mansion

Lady Gu, wife of Duke Dingguo, received a visiting card from Lady Wang.

Gu knew without hesitation that Wang was here to gather information.

Gu said to her trusted nanny, "Yuebai told me something this morning. I didn't expect that he guessed it right. Minister Xue's wife really came."

The nanny asked, "Madam, would you like to invite her in?"

Gu said, "Yuebai works for the emperor, and there is nothing shameful about our Dingguo Mansion."

"Let her come. We can use her to leak some information."

"Lest Prince Consort Song think that Princess Mindai can save him and keep silent on purpose."

After receiving Gu's words, the nanny asked someone to invite Wang in.

When Wang learned that Gu was willing to see her, she felt a little relieved.

She also brought in some gifts.

She was brought to the living room, where a maid served tea, water and snacks. After a while, Gu came over.

Wang quickly stood up and greeted, "Meet Madam Leng!"

"I'm so sorry for coming here to bother you and cause trouble for Madam Leng."

Although Wang was also the wife of the Minister of War, who held real power, she could not be compared with the Duke Dingguo's Mansion.

The ancestor of Duke Dingguo was a hero in the founding of the country, not to mention that the Gu family was an ancient aristocratic family that had gone through several dynasties without being affected in any way.

The Gu family is even more capable and should not be underestimated.
