An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan
Chapter 454: Temporary Residence
The Queen already knew that the farce in Chuxiu Palace was originally planned by Concubine Hua.
And its purpose should be aimed at An Lingrong. In comparison, Xin Chang, the "culprit" who bears the brunt of the attack, is at best just a stone that stirs up discussion.
It was just that An Lingrong was lucky, and Concubine Hua was a little unlucky, so she ended up like that.
It is rare that the emperor agrees to let her investigate this matter thoroughly, and the queen will definitely not miss such an opportunity.
But Concubine Hua acted so quickly that she cleared up everything so quickly. In this way, all the clues were cut off!
"My lady, what shall we do next?"
After Jianqiu finished speaking, the queen fell silent. At first, she did not dare to disturb her master.
But after waiting for a long time, the Queen did not give any instructions, so Jianqiu could only take the initiative to ask.
"Forget it, let's hand these things over to the emperor first, and then listen to his opinion."
The queen sighed and decided to stop for a while.
Not to be missed.
Now that she no longer had those young eunuchs in the Imperial Household Department as a point of entry, it would naturally be much more difficult for the Queen to deal with Concubine Hua directly.
At this time, instead of continuing to work hard and ending up with nothing, it is better to hand the clues to the emperor first, and then let the emperor decide whether to continue the investigation.
"Yes."
After receiving the order, Jianqiu finally breathed a sigh of relief. She nodded immediately and went to the Yangxin Palace as the Queen wished.
……
In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Yongzheng was handling daily affairs, with Zhen Huan by his side.
After Jianqiu came, Yongzheng only asked Su Peisheng to bring in the signed and sealed "confessions" and did not let Jianqiu enter the hall.
"Oh! How ridiculous!"
Yongzheng read through the confessions quickly, then called Zhen Huan over and said, "Huan Huan, take a look!"
Being suddenly told this by the Emperor, Zhen Huan felt somewhat curious.
These confessions all came from the palace maids and eunuchs in Chuxiu Palace, who were usually responsible for serving Concubine Xin. But what on earth did they say to cause the emperor to sneer?
With doubts and confusion, Zhen Huan began to flip through the papers.
Because there were not many servants in Chuxiu Palace, these confessions could be read through in one go.
After finishing reading, Zhen Huan's expression became strange.
These confessions were not direct admissions of guilt, nor were they just complaints of injustice. Some of them were loyal to Xin Changzai and said they had never seen Zhuzi tinkering with these spices, nor had they ever gone to the Imperial Household Department to get such things for her. At the same time, some of them were very confident and pointed out that Xin Changzai was the mastermind behind all this.
In short, the contents of these thin pieces of paper are completely different.
"Such a polar division really confuses me."
Putting aside the confessions, Zhen Huan asked, "What does the emperor think?"
"I think they are looking at us as fools!"
The emperor snorted coldly and said to Su Peisheng, "Is this all the Queen sent? What is the situation at the Ministry of Internal Affairs?"
"Your Majesty, the Empress only sent these. As for the Ministry of Internal Affairs..."
Although the Queen did not tell him more information, Su Peisheng was the person in charge of the Emperor's daily life in front of the Emperor. Naturally, he had to know everything that happened in the palace.
So, as soon as Yongzheng opened his mouth, Su Peisheng hesitated for a moment, and then told the emperor that the eunuch who was originally responsible for delivering daily supplies to Chuxiu Palace had encountered an unexpected situation.
After hearing what the other party said, Yongzheng had no expression on his face, and Zhen Huan's eyes revealed a hint of sarcasm.
She really is worthy of being Concubine Hua!
The action was so clean and efficient that it was impossible to find any evidence against him.
Moreover, in Concubine Hua's heart, she probably thought that even if the emperor found out about what she had done, he would not do anything to her, right?
Only those who are favored can be so fearless. Concubine Hua is indeed very experienced in this regard.
"Your Majesty, forgive me!"
When Su Peisheng saw that Yongzheng looked uneasy, he immediately knew that he was probably extremely angry, so he knelt down immediately.
"Your Majesty, please calm down!"
Zhen Huan also knew that this incident would inevitably cause ripples in Yongzheng's heart. At this time, Su Peisheng was also extremely innocent, and immediately followed suit to plead for mercy.
"This matter has nothing to do with you, get up quickly."
Although Yongzheng was angry, he was far from taking his anger out on others.
What's more, the one kneeling in front of him was an old eunuch who had served him for many years, and the other was his favorite concubine who was pregnant. He could not bear to blame them.
With a wave of his hand, the emperor sent Su Peisheng away and personally helped Zhen Huan to the chair.
"Your Majesty, this matter is very complicated. Even if the Empress wants to continue investigating, I'm afraid she doesn't know where to start."
Zhen Huan saw that Yongzheng was still in a bad mood, so she immediately changed her angle to comfort him.
"Of course I know that too."
Concubine Hua acted cleanly and efficiently, and Yongzheng also understood that the other party was fearless and all this was mainly caused by him.
However, the emperor would never make "mistakes". Even if something went wrong, it was always due to the incompetence of his subordinates.
Just like now, if we continue to investigate Concubine Hua, there will definitely be chaos, and it will involve so many people and it won’t look good.
"Forget it, let's end this matter here!"
Yongzheng thought for a while, and finally shook his head.
He did not intend to continue to pursue the role played by Concubine Hua in these matters, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs still had to make careful rearrangements to ensure that no accidents would occur in the future.
"This is an inevitable result."
Zhen Huan nodded slowly, looking as if she could empathize with the emperor.
After waiting for a while, Zhen Huan suddenly looked up at Yongzheng.
"What's wrong? Is there anything you want to say?"
Feeling Zhen Huan's gaze, Yongzheng was also wondering why she seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"I was just thinking, since this matter has come to an end, will Concubine Xin move back to Chuxiu Palace to live?"
Because Concubine Xin is staying in Yonghe Palace now. Although Yonghe Palace is spacious, it is not crowded for An Lingrong to live with her.
But Yongzheng had already said that there was no need to investigate the matter further, so Zhen Huan naturally had to mention Xin Changzai.
"Well, let's live with Concubine An first, so they can take care of each other."
Yongzheng thought about it and decided not to let Concubine Xin move back to Chuxiu Palace just like that.
Firstly, a low-ranking concubine like Xin Changzai could not live alone in a palace. Even in Chuxiu Palace, she only lived in a side hall, which was very different from living with An Lingrong.
In addition, Concubine Hua had made it clear that she wanted to deal with Concubine Xin. Even if she had other intentions, separating Concubine Xin and An Lingrong would not do any good for them. It would be better for them to live together.
"Your Majesty is very thoughtful." Zhen Huan first praised Yongzheng, and then said: "Then please allow me to ask for your grace!"
Yongzheng put down the brush in his hand and said, "You tell me first."
Zhen Huan said: "I request that the emperor return the maid who originally served Xin Changzai to Xin Changzai. After all, she brought the maid from her mother's home, and she has been used to it for many years!"
