Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

Until she left the Eastern Palace, Jia Yuanchun did nothing but seize the time to recuperate and take medicine on time and in the right amount, without wasting a single bite; she slept as much as she could every day as long as she could, and never exchanged a single word with the palace maids and eunuchs.

Even when Wu Liangyuan heard that she was about to leave the palace, she politely sent someone to send some gifts such as pearl flowers and brocade because she lived in the same palace. However, she was turned away at the door with the reason that she was "sleeping."

Wu Liangyuan lost her temper.

Aunt Wanqi also found it unbelievable: "The Rong and Ning mansions have always been known for their good manners. What's wrong with this young lady? Does she want to offend the entire Eastern Palace?"

Wang Xifeng, however, figured out a clue and ordered Wu Jin to go to the Daming Palace to find out the origins of the eunuch and female official who came to read out the decree of marriage that day.

The next morning, Wu Jin came back and told her: the eunuch was Dai Quan's disciple's grandson, just an ordinary eunuch; and the female official's first identity was a spy planted by Empress Mo in the Shangyi Bureau, and her second identity was a loyal servant of the late Empress Xiaoren.

Wang Xifeng frowned when she heard this and called Aunt Meng to ask her if she knew the female official who came to announce the imperial decree that day.

Meng Fanshuang thought for a moment and said, "Back then, all of us were favored by the late Empress Xiaoren. I have met that person, but I only know that he is a colleague. We have never talked or worked together."

"In other words, you have not noticed whether this person has any connection with people outside the palace, or has formed a clique with anyone in the palace?" Wang Xifeng asked carefully.

Meng Fanshuang frowned: "I really didn't notice whether she had any contact with people outside the palace. But as for forming a clique, she did have a few good friends back then, but now they have all left Daming Palace..."

At this point, she suddenly paused, her eyes slightly widened, "She has two good friends. One left the palace and went to Xining Palace to be a teacher, and the other married the former palace guard, who is now the lieutenant general of the Beijing camp!"

now it's right.

"What a good plot!" Wang Xifeng sighed.

Meng Fanshuang was surprised: "What's wrong?"

Wang Xifeng then told Meng Fanshuang what the imperial physician Huang Shu had told her about Jia Yuanchun's unusual mood, and sighed, "I checked her behavior over the past few days and found out that she was secretly asking about Sister Mei's situation."

Meng Fanshuang was shocked: "She wants to harm Mei Liangyuan?!"

"I think there is a way. She has been quiet for the past two days and is leaving the East Palace." Wang Xifeng sighed and said, "She is my cousin. If the female official who delivered the message is connected to my second uncle in the Beijing camp;

"If something happens to Sister Mei because of their scheme, I will have no way to defend myself."

Meng Fanshuang pondered for a moment and nodded slowly: "This move can be said to kill two birds with one stone. First, it gets rid of the fetus in Mei's belly, and second, it overthrows Liangdi——

"Even if Liang Di hadn't fallen, the friendship between Mei Liangyuan and Liang Di would probably never be as deep as it is now."

Wang Xifeng sighed.

Meng Fanshuang was puzzled: "Even if your uncle has a deep grudge against you, he should still be wary of your father. Besides, he is a blood relative and has nothing to do with Liang Di.

"Why are you so deliberate and trying to harm Liangdi?"

"This should not be my second uncle's order." Wang Xifeng shook her head, "It is clear that my second uncle has been implicated. If Sister Mei gets into trouble, I can't escape, and he will be implicated as well.

"So I'm afraid this is someone who knows about the discord between us uncle and nephew and is taking advantage of that female official."

Meng Fanshuang was worried: "I don't think the Queen would be so hard on the Crown Prince. The Crown Princess can't get into the Daming Palace. Even if someone wants to plot against the Eastern Palace, they should go after Prince Duan. Why would they think of making things difficult for a fetus whose gender is unknown?"

Wang Xifeng looked out the window indifferently and spoke slowly: "Who said that the Crown Princess can't reach into the Daming Palace?"

Meng Fanshuang was surprised.

"The Queen may not be so hard on the Crown Prince, but Prince Su may not be." Wang Xifeng continued in a low voice, "And there are also the remaining ministers who first deposed the Crown Prince.

"Prince Duan is surrounded by the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, and no one can get in or out. The Emperor values ​​Prince Duan, and everyone in the court knows it. If they really do something to Prince Duan, I'm afraid the Emperor will be furious and conduct a serious investigation, and none of them will be able to escape."

"No matter who is behind this, I think the emperor must have a good idea of ​​his temper.

"I don't think anyone has the guts to stroke a tiger's whiskers."

Meng Fanshuang thought about her words and nodded slightly.

At this point, Wang Xifeng sighed softly, her voice becoming increasingly inaudible: "When will the prince have such power?"

The next day, Huang Shu went to check Jia Yuanchun's pulse again, and came out to tell Wang Xifeng: "Ms. Jia can return home tomorrow."

"Return home? That's impossible. She has to go back to the palace to kowtow to the Empress. But I heard that the Empress is ill. I'd better report it to the Crown Princess first and ask the palace what it means."

Wang Xifeng waved her hand to let Huang Shu leave, and went to ask the Crown Princess.

No matter how much the Crown Princess wanted to hide from the message sent to the palace, it was unreasonable for her to pretend to be deaf and dumb and let a concubine go to the Queen to ask for permission.

They had no choice but to carefully let the new Aunt Han go to the Daming Palace in person.

Aunt Han came back quickly, looking normal: "The Queen just caught a cold the day she went to Da Ci'en Temple, but she is fine now. She has asked Miss Jia to return to Zhaoyang Palace tomorrow."

Things went surprisingly smoothly.

Everything went so smoothly that Wang Xifeng felt vaguely uneasy, thinking something was going to happen.

She worked diligently that night and checked all the palace people who had come into contact with Jia Yuanchun. She also asked Wu Jin to go to the Daming Palace and asked the Crow brothers to keep a close eye on the main hall of Yi Qiu Palace.

Silent all night.

Calm and calm.

When she woke up in the morning, Meng Fanshuang looked at Wang Xifeng's dark circles and almost sighed in front of everyone. She turned her back and advised her, "Don't be too serious, Liang Di.

"Since you didn't sleep well last night, why don't you take some time to catch up on some sleep today?"

Wang Xifeng shook her head: "I just feel uneasy. I think I may have to wait until she is married to the Northern Palace peacefully before I can sleep well."

After breakfast, Jia Yuanchun came to say goodbye.

Wang Xifeng looked at her elder cousin who was kneeling in front of her and looked as thin as a skeleton. She felt mixed emotions. After a while, she said:

"Why is Miss Jia worshipping me? This is not the rule.

"Please stand up. I will take you to say goodbye to the Crown Princess."

When they arrived at Cheng'en Palace again, the Crown Princess gently taught her how to behave, and then let Jia Yuanchun go.

Looking at the pale and heart-holding Jia Yuanchun, Wang Xifeng said without thinking: "Ms. Jia, you are marrying into the Northern Palace to become a princess. You should take good care of yourself so that you can deal with all the affairs of the palace."

Jia Yuanchun looked at her and forced a smile: "Thank you for your kindness, Concubine Liang. I will remember it."

Wang Xifeng, who was really worried, personally sent Jia Yuanchun to the side door of the East Palace - from here, the carriage could reach the side door of the Daming Palace in less than half a cup of tea.
