An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan

Chapter 366: Advantages and Disadvantages

Regardless of what exactly is in each other's minds, just from the surface, the relationship between Zhen Huan and Cao Qinmo can be described as harmonious.

She proposed to adopt Princess Wen Yi as her "adopted daughter" and listed many benefits that would benefit both parties, which made Cao Qinmo also show a surprised expression, and then the two discussed the details.

In addition to the honey incense and the children's items that Zhen Huan asked Cui Jinxi to prepare, she also took out an equally valuable piece of jewelry bestowed by the emperor and presented it to Princess Wen Yi as a token of appreciation from her "godmother".

Cao Qinmo was so overjoyed to receive so many gifts. She saw that Zhen Huan not only became more gentle, but also became so happy that she was grinning.

After receiving the gifts, Cao Qinmo and the others talked for a while.

However, seeing that the time was almost up, Zhen Huan did not continue to talk.

After following Cao Qinmo to look at Princess Wen Yi who had fallen asleep, Zhen Huan tactfully said goodbye.

"My lord, can you please put these things away?"

As soon as Zhen Huan left, Cao Qinmo's trusted maid came with a pile of gifts left by Cui Jinxi and asked Cao Qinmo what to do with them.

There are quite a lot of these things, and this is not a place they can live in for a long time. The palace maid has to see Cao Qinmo's opinion before storing them.

But Cao Qinmo's smile suddenly disappeared after hearing this question, and she said calmly: "No matter whether they are fragrant or smelly, throw them all out, throw them far away, the princess can't use these things!"

Cao Qinmo was very satisfied with the honey incense given by Zhen Huan and the jewelry that also came from Yongzheng's private storehouse.

However, Cao Qinmo completely disdained the remaining clothes that were said to be sewn by Zhen Huan herself.

"Ah? Throw them all away?"

Because she was his confidant, Yinxiu was also present when Zhen Huan and Cao Qinmo were talking heart to heart, and was not asked to be discreet.

So, when she suddenly heard her master say this, she was instinctively surprised.

Just now, Cao Qinmo and Zhen Huan were talking and laughing happily, as if they were real sisters, and they chatted for a long time about the princess.

Cao Qinmo was also very grateful to Zhen Huan, saying that it was a great blessing for the princess to have such a "godmother".

The results of it?

How long has it been?

Cao Qinmo actually changed his expression and directly said that he wanted to throw all those things away, which surprised Yinxiu.

"What's wrong? Is this your first day following me?"

Seeing that Yinxiu did not execute his order immediately, but instead raised questions, Cao Qinmo's face suddenly darkened.

When Yinxiu saw that she showed a hint of anger, she also panicked. She didn't dare to say anything and followed Cao Qinmo's instructions to throw away the clothes and daily necessities that Zhen Huan had sent her.

Seeing this, Cao Qinmo showed a look of satisfaction.

Although Yinxiu was quite dissatisfied with Cao Qinmo's actions in her heart, he was her master after all, and she was just a small palace maid. Even if she could get a little face in front of Cao Qinmo, it could not change the huge gap in their status.

Because of this, Yinxiu didn't dare to do any unnecessary work and could only obediently throw away all those things as Cao Qinmo requested.

However, Cao Qinmo, who was immersed in a happy mood at the moment, forgot to remind Yinxiu to remember to throw the things farther away.

Although Yinxiu is Cao Qinmo's confidant, she is far less scheming than her master.

Otherwise, Yinxiuxian Qianye would never have asked those questions.

Since Cao Qinmo just said to throw all these things away, Yinxiu just acted according to this request. Little did she know that her actions were all seen by those who had ulterior motives.

……

"How about it?"

In Bitong Academy, Zhen Huan looked at Cui Jinxi and asked this question.

Although she didn't say it directly, Zhen Huan had already specifically instructed Cui Jinxi when she left Cao Qinmo's residence.

Therefore, when Zhen Huan asked the question, Cui Jinxi instantly understood what Zhen Huan was referring to.

"Reporting to the young master!"

Cui Jinxi said: "I followed the young lady's instructions and hid in the dark, keeping a close eye on Concubine Cao's movements. As expected, after we left, she could no longer hold back and took action!"

Because according to Zhen Huan's original idea, she was going to use the box of honey incense that she had given out earlier as bait to catch a big fish.

Therefore, although Zhen Huan left on the surface, she actually secretly instructed Cui Jinxi to keep a close eye on Cao Qinmo at all times, and to report to her immediately no matter what any movement there was.

Now that she heard that Cui Jinxi had indeed gained something, Zhen Huan suddenly became excited.

Cui Jinxi did not keep the secret and directly said to Zhen Huan, "I have been waiting outside for about an hour. I thought Concubine Cao would be alright, but I didn't expect that at this time, I saw Yinxiu beside Concubine Cao sneaking out with a bunch of things in her hands!"

"Hehe, but what about the things we gave to Cao Qinmo earlier?"

Although Cui Jinxi had not finished her words, upon hearing this, Zhen Huan immediately guessed what would happen next.

"Not bad!"

Cui Jinxi nodded slowly and said, "Everything is just as you guessed before. Concubine Cao must have doubts about the things you sent, so she ordered people to throw all those things out! But I went to check secretly, and the pearl hairpin that Mi Hexiang gave you was not among them!"

When they said this, Cui Jinxi and Zhen Huan looked at each other and both smiled knowingly.

At that time, when Cui Jinxi discovered this, the stone that had been hanging in her heart finally fell to the ground.

She knew that Cao Qinmo had finally taken the bait!

Although she threw the things out, she could not bear to part with the foreign tributes and the luxurious pearl hairpins and jewelry that symbolized the emperor's favor. Cao Qinmo unknowingly walked into a big net that was woven for her!

"It seems that Sister Cao really likes those two things."

Zhen Huan looked at the jade bead in her hand that was specially given to An Lingrong and smiled slowly, "However, Sister Cao may not know that sometimes being too eye-catching is not a good thing!"

Cao Qinmo might be aware of the truth that a tree stands out from the crowd, but wealth and fame are so attractive that she may not be as clear-headed and cautious as she was before.
