Xi Jieyu was moved.
Now she has no other way to regain favor, only rely on nightmare.
Mrs. Mei can use nightmare to win the emperor's heart back, there's no reason she can't. However, she didn't know how to use the nightmare technique.
Xi Jieyu looked at Ru Yue, and asked eagerly, "You know?"
"Although this servant doesn't know, Mrs. Mei knows." She said softly, "Didn't your empress place a pawn beside Mrs. Mei? Just ask her."
This person is a second-class court lady next to Mrs. Mei, and she is very important to her. But this hidden line is Xi Jieyu's trump card, and she will not use it unless it is absolutely necessary.
After entering the palace for so long, Xi Jieyu has never been in touch with her, for fear of being discovered by Mrs. Mei.
But now that the situation is urgent, Xi Jieyu has made up her mind.
Three days later, Ru Yue hurried back to Xi Jieyu's side, and whispered the news she had "investigated" to Xi Jieyu.
"That's it?" Xi Jieyu's eyes flashed with surprise.
I didn't expect the method of nightmare technique to be so simple...
royal palace.
"Your Majesty, here comes the anti-fetal medicine." Nanny carried the medicine into the room.
Concubine Xian took the medicine bowl, as if she was not afraid of suffering, she drank it slowly. She put down the bowl and spoon, and gently wiped the corners of her lips.
"Is there any news from Ruyue?"
Although she is far away in the palace, Concubine Xian is still well aware of what happened in the palace. When Xi Jieyu and Fu Concubine were defeated by Mrs. Shangmei, she expected that Xi Jieyu would be grounded until the emperor returned to the palace.
So she simply sent a letter to Ru Yue, asking her to lure Xi Jieyu to use the nightmare technique.
The mother frowned slightly: "Xi Jieyu believed it, and has already started to use this method. It's just... Your Majesty, isn't she afraid that she will really hug His Majesty?"
Madam Mei naturally didn't have the method to perform the nightmare technique, what Ru Yue got was the method from them. Moreover, this method is really effective, and it is not used to bluff people.
Her young lady got this trick from her aunt at home, and that aunt used this trick to win over General Cao. If it hadn't been for her young lady who tricked her into ruining the plan, she might still be stepping on Mrs. Cao's head now.
Hearing Mammy's worry, Concubine Xian chuckled lightly: "What kind of good thing are you thinking of that sorcery?"
Auntie didn't miss it but because of the short time, this method only has short-term effect. The aunt was shot to death after three months of dancing. If she hadn't tossed this woman away so quickly, her father would also break free from the control of the magic in a few months. At that time, without her taking action, my aunt will also reap the consequences.
That's why she didn't use it herself. The original aunt also knew the disadvantages of the nightmare technique, and originally planned to feign death to escape by earning a fortune, but it was a pity that she ran into the hands of the concubine Xian.
Concubine Xian narrowed her eyes slightly, wanting to take advantage of their Cao family? dream.
When Mammy saw this, she didn't ask any more questions. Presumably, there were some disadvantages of the sorcery that she didn't know about. That being the case, what was she worried about.
"Your Majesty has no doubts, but this old servant is unclear about one thing. Why did your Majesty take action against Xi Jieyu?"
Two girls from Yu Youxiang's family entered the palace, but they were not very favored before, and their status was not high enough, so why should they be trampled down? What's more, her mother only attacked Xi Jieyu alone.
Speaking of this, Concubine Xian felt a little pity: "The medicine was a bit wasted on Xi Jieyu. I thought this woman was a bit smart, but I didn't expect that even Mrs. Mei would not be able to pull it off."
She was the first to target Xi Jieyu because their sisters were at odds. You can use Xi Jieyu to clean up Mrs. Lost Mei, and then destroy Xi Jieyu.
Ru Yue was the person she had arranged to go to Yu's house a long time ago. This girl was smart, and when she came to Xi Jieyu's side, she became a confidant. After giving Xi Jieyu the medicine that can reduce the spirit of cholera, Xi Jieyu really seemed to have suffered from hysteria.
It's a pity that, affected by the drugs, Xi Jieyu's layout is not as strict as before, and even the clueless Mrs. Mei can't get off the horse.
When the medicine was first administered, Mrs. Mei hadn't returned to favor. At that time, this person was easy to deal with, and Concubine Xian never thought that Xi Jieyu would fail. But it doesn't matter if you fail, Mrs. Mei doesn't threaten her much, as long as she tramples Xi Jieyu to death.
A brainless woman, no matter how much the Yu family praises her, she will not be able to turn her around. Otherwise, why did she insist on getting rid of the intelligent Xi Jieyu
"Mother, don't underestimate that Xi Jieyu." Concubine Xian closed her eyes slightly, let the mother massage her scalp, and breathed a sigh of relief, "The Yu family and the Shen family have the same family background, and the Shen family can produce a noble concubine who loves the harem." , the Yu family can naturally do the same."
That's why she and her mother took precautions and sent someone to the Yu family a long time ago.
It's a pity that among the few who were sent in, only Ru Yue made a fool of herself and followed into the palace. But fortunately, the rest are not useless, at least they did a good job of "bullying others", which made the Yu family's reputation not as good as the Shen family's.
Not only that, but they also intentionally helped to raise Mrs. Mei, who was quite clever when she was a child. By the way, the news of the discord between the two daughters of the Yu family has spread throughout the city.
Because of these things, the Yu family's girl's reputation has been damaged, so she is naturally not as good as other girls who are clean and self-sufficient. He didn't get a high position after entering the palace, and he was a little sorry for his family background.
"But Shen Guifei's reputation is not much better than that of the girl from the Yu family." Mammy snorted softly.
Concubine Xian did not speak, Concubine Shen? Can that be the same? The Shen family is the emperor's confidant, and Shen Yuqing had no choice but to enter the palace after being plotted against. The emperor will naturally compensate her, not to mention the noble concubine, other people's empresses are worthy.
I really envy these noble girls, they are the proud daughters of heaven since birth, and I don't know what else they are dissatisfied with. If I have their family background, why bother to set up a game step by step.
The Cao family made their fortune after Concubine Xian was ten years old, before she was just an ordinary general. At that time, the Cao family was not well-known in the Central Plains, and she had to make smiles for other noble girls when she went out. But now, the Cao family has finally become prominent, but it is still not comparable to the Xiao family who is a general.
So, it's really enviable.
"Bengong was originally glad that the Shen family didn't know how to teach their children and only cared about their son. Their daughters have developed such a savage temperament, which makes people laugh. Now it seems that it is Bengong who is ridiculous." Concubine Xian sighed.
The previous self was still too young.
At that time, I heard that the girl from the Shen family had a bad temper, and she was happy in her heart. She felt that she didn't need to do anything about it, and the girl from the Shen family had learned to be bad by herself. Because of this, she was not unhappy after the eyeliner she had planted in Shen's residence failed the assessment and was kicked out as soon as she got started.
Now that I have broadened my horizons, I realize that my previous self was so naive.
A perfect family with a good reputation and no flaws, the emperor will rest assured? Of course not. So the Shen family deliberately spoiled the girls in the family, this is the handle they left for the emperor.
People always have advantages and disadvantages, otherwise they will be a very dangerous time-bomb in the eyes of those in power. When the emperor can't handle them, how can he believe that their loyalty is true loyalty
But with this shortcoming, it's different. The Shen family dotes on their daughter to the point that they don't care about it, so the girls of the Shen family are their weakness. With weaknesses, they are not afraid that they will rebel.
However, Concubine Xian still has some doubts in her heart, even if it is this point, the emperor shouldn't be so blatantly supporting the Shen family, right? She remembered that before Shen Yuqing entered the palace three years ago, the Shen family was not as beautiful as it is now, at least it was relatively low-key.
— Dear Concubine Xian naturally doesn't know that there is a young lady in the Shen family who escapes marriage and elopes in the hands of His Majesty the Emperor.
"Now Xi Jieyu is nothing to worry about. The next one will be Concubine Fu." Concubine Xian chuckled, "The Fu family lacks Concubine Fu. Do you think they will jump over the wall in a hurry, or will they endure the humiliation?"
It is impossible for a dog to jump over the wall in a hurry. They only have a family name and don't have much rights. As for enduring humiliation, there are two types.
The first is to reconcile with the empress dowager, and the second is to send another girl in.
However, the direct branch of the Fu family has no girls of the right age, unless one is sent in from the side.
Concubine Xian frowned in confusion, why did the Empress Dowager and Empress Fu fall out with the Fu family? She has never been able to understand this matter, and it would be easier to have the support of her mother's family behind her.
Mammy didn't understand why Concubine Xian left Concubine Shen and the others, and moved the concubines below first. Forget about the girls of the Yu family, they might pose a threat to the empress if given a chance, but what about Concubine Fu who is not valued by the emperor? Aren't you afraid to push the Fu family to the Queen's side again
Little did she know that this was what Concubine Xian was waiting for, and now that the noble concubines and queens in the palace joined forces, she couldn't resist. It is necessary to alienate the alliance between the two. What is easier to break their alliance than the opposing positions of the two parents? The Fu family would not be willing to join hands with the Shen family.
As for Concubine Yan, it's just a decoration, don't worry about it. Concubine Yun is the younger sister of King Huan, so the emperor would not really dote on her, otherwise the emperor would be in trouble if Prince Huan joined forces with Concubine Yun to rebel. Mrs. Lan is the daughter of a businessman, she is only a little clever, nothing to worry about.
Concubine Wei's family background is not obvious, and she is a vassal of Concubine Shen. The most important thing is that her image in the emperor's heart is too perfect to be polluted by splashing sewage. Spending a lot of effort to deal with her is a waste of time, not only has no effect, but there is no benefit after success.
The rest of the concubines have low status and average family background, so don't take it to heart. So the most urgent task is to clean up Concubine Fu and Xi Jieyu, and then let the queen and concubine fight.
After being in the palace for so long, the new high-ranking concubines are all so low-key, and they all have such calculations. They are waiting for others to strike first, or for the group to fight among themselves.
When he first entered the palace, he was weak and weak, so the fool was eager to jump out and seek death.
Didn't you see that Mrs. Lan is still so calm now that she hasn't even served her bed? Not only did she settle down and watch the show quietly, but she also won the opportunity to go to the palace without any trace. She is not at all like a concubine who has never shown her face in front of the emperor, so that the palace people are now holding her up and treating her coldly. I dare not.
In contrast, Concubine Xian and Concubine Yun have served in bed at least once. Especially Concubine Yun, the emperor would visit her several times a month, but she still had no sense of existence in the eyes of everyone, as if she was a world of her own.
If the problem of Concubine Yun's background was not too great, Concubine Xian would probably be more wary of her.
Concubine Yun, who is far away in the palace, is completely unaware of Concubine Xian's fear. She is worrying about one thing now.
"Sister Man, can I really not send something to Weiwei? But Yuqing said that Weiwei likes to eat this most!" Concubine Yun frowned slightly, her white dress was blown up slightly by the night wind, as if she was about to eat it in the next second. It's like becoming a fairy and becoming a fairy.
It's just that this fairy is deeply troubled now, and suddenly she has some fireworks.
When she saw that Sister Man was still stopping her, her eyes became more sad.
It was with great difficulty that she got the inside information about Concubine Wei from Shen Yuqing. For such a little news, she gave Shen Yuqing and her son ice for an hour!
God damn the baby can't use an ice basin, let her go over to cool down:) Do you really think she can't beat people
The palace maid who was called "Sister Man" sneered, stretched out her hand and slapped Concubine Yun back into the room: "Sleep in your sleep, my princess! You think you are sending snacks to people in the middle of the night, and you are asking A concubine whom the emperor invites to favor?"
Since the princess of her family was frightened by Concubine Wei's smile last time, she has become like a demon. For the past few days, she ran to Shen Guifei's place as if she lost her soul, and today she finally found out the inside information, and hurried back to ask the small kitchen to make pastries.
As a result, she tossed and tossed until midnight before she expressed her satisfaction with this batch of pastries, thinking that she could send them to Concubine Wei.
But little ancestor, don't you look at what time it is now, if you give cakes to people at this moment, it seems that you have bad intentions, okay
The palace maid He Man sighed, feeling that the "iceberg beauty" image she had set for the princess was in jeopardy. The princess is usually pretty good, only a little idiot, and when she meets a pretty girl with a good temper, she can't help but reveal her true nature, which makes her a headache.
Fortunately, in recent years, the princess has not met a beautiful girl who is more beautiful than the maid beside her, so there is no chance of being an idiot.
The piano courtyard next door.
"Why did Concubine Yun start walking with you all of a sudden?" The empress sat in front of the makeup mirror and took off her hairpin, and looked through the glass mirror at Shen Yuqing who was lying on the bed and playing with cats, "Didn't she always dislike walking with us? "
Since the cooperation, Concubine Yun has been living in a house, comparable to the Queen Mother. I don't know if it's because of his true withdrawn personality, or to avoid revealing his secrets.
Shen Yuqing chuckled: "She? A ghost with a withdrawn personality."
On the other hand, the woman in her thirties next to Concubine Yun looked very interesting. Compared with her mature and stable appearance, Concubine Yun feels a bit childish, and coupled with her desolate appearance, she is very cute in contrast.
"Cold on the outside and hot on the inside?" Fu Qiushui was thoughtful.
Shen Yuqing hugged the adult and rolled: "She should have pretended to be indifferent since she was a child, and it should be to survive, but she herself is not such a temperament, but she will inevitably be affected if she pretends for a long time." So sometimes she doesn't deliberately pretend to be indifferent. It's cold, just like the flowers of Gaoling.
"Didn't it mean that when her brother and mother were alive, she lived quite comfortably?" After all, she was the only daughter of the feudal king, and she was treated like a princess in the fiefdom.
Shen Yuqing frowned, and had a guess in her heart, but it's not good to talk to Fu Qiushui before it's confirmed. I had no choice but to find another topic to divert away from. Fortunately, Fu Qiushui just mentioned it casually and didn't pursue it.
The next afternoon, Concubine Yun came again.
When I came here this time, I was downcast, probably because I failed to show courteousness, and Weiwei thought she had ulterior motives and took precautions.
No other palace people were allowed to enter the house, only He Man followed Concubine Yun. After seeing the lord and the little mink, Concubine Yun finally cheered up and hugged the two cubs and rubbed them.
"Yuqing..." Her cold aura of the past is still there, and her indifferent iceberg beauty's face has not changed, but her resentful tone is funny no matter how it sounds, like a cold beauty who has been abandoned by her lover.
Shen Yuqing looked at her with interest: "What? Weiwei confiscated your pastry?"
"Take it..." After saying this, Concubine Yun became even more sad.
But she felt that Weiwei didn't know how to eat it at all, and she probably threw it away when she turned around.
Shen Yuqing asked someone to bring her son over: "Let's not talk about anything else, why don't you help me hold my son for a while, and I'll give you some advice, how about it?"
Concubine Yun: "..." Not much, thank you.
He Man could hardly see, and silently covered his eyes. She felt that the feng shui of this place is not good, so she should not let her princess come here to find abuse.
When Qiuqiu came over, Shen Yuqing waved her hand to let everyone else get down. Only she, Qiuqiu, mother and son were left in the room, as well as Concubine He Manyun, the master and servant.
After everyone left, Shen Yuqing looked at Qiuqiu writhing in Concubine Yun's arms, and suddenly said, "You're not the original princess, are you?"
He Man's eyes fixed immediately, and he stepped forward to protect Concubine Yun behind her.
It can be seen that He Man's martial arts are not weak, but they are not good enough in front of Shen Yuqing. Fortunately, Shen Yuqing didn't intend to fight with them, she still sat on her seat with her old god.
Concubine Yun, on the other hand, stretched out her hand to hold He Man: "Sister Man, don't do it."
Shen Yuqing stared at them with great interest, she had already felt something was wrong. He Man's name is not like that of a maid, she has a first name and a surname, while ordinary maids only have names given by their masters. Moreover, Concubine Yun slipped her tongue once before and called her "Sister Man". This is not like the address a master would call a maid, but rather like the address between sisters with different surnames.
He Man slowly stood back behind Concubine Yun, but his body was tense, not daring to relax for a moment.
Shen Yuqing took a second look at her, and felt that her martial arts were a bit strange, not like real martial arts, but like some kind of body training technique. Then he looked at Concubine Yun again, and saw that she had put away the true temperament that she deliberately expressed.
Concubine Yun, if she wasn't really overly controlling her appearance, she might not be willing to put away her disguise in front of Shen Yuqing, in order to curry favor with Shen Yuqing in order to get news about Concubine Wei. But when the bottom line is reached, any concessions are empty, and the desertedness will immediately return in a second.
Seeing that her IQ had recovered, He Man didn't worry anymore, she just watched Shen Yuqing on guard, guarding against Shen Yuqing's sudden violent attack.
But she thought too much, if Shen Yuqing really wanted to restrain them, why bother? Don't talk nonsense with them, just get started.
She narrowed her eyes slightly: "The princess is not really indifferent, why isn't she sad about the death of her mother and brother?"
She hadn't seen Concubine Yun before, and she thought Concubine Yun was as cold-hearted as the rumors said. Even if her brother and mother died, she didn't care. But obviously, Concubine Yun is not such a heartless person, on the contrary, judging from her attitude towards He Man, she should be very emotional.
Shen Yuqing suspected that Concubine Yun was not the original princess, but she couldn't imagine how the princess was replaced for a while.
Concubine Yun sat upright on the chair, even if there was a small ball in her arms, it would not damage her inviolable aura. Her expression was indifferent, and she couldn't tell that the person who pretended to be pitiful just now was the same person as her.
"Since the imperial concubine is very curious, why don't you tell the princess first, why does the eldest lady of the Shen family know martial arts?" Concubine Yun stretched out her hand, and brought back the ball that was about to fall off herself, with a subtle tone, "Besides, it's still Mingjiao." martial arts."
She didn't know that the martial arts that Shen Yuqing knew were Mingjiao martial arts, until she saw the moves that Shen Yuqing taught Qingxi.
Shen Yuqing was surprised: "You know Mingjiao? I remember that there is no Mingjiao handed down from the previous dynasty."
Concubine Yun would not be surprised if she knew about the five poisons and pure yang. There must be some ancient books that record the secrets of the previous dynasty with Wang Yixing. She can find out about Sister Poison and the National Teacher in the ancient books. It makes no sense that Wang Yixing doesn't know about it.
But Mingjiao has never appeared before.
Shen Yuqing's heart skipped a beat. Could this Concubine Yun also be an NPC from their game? So she came here suddenly after the death of her original mother and brother? But how to explain He Man, He Man grew up with Concubine Yun.
Concubine Yun's expression was complicated when she heard the words: "You also traveled through time? I was a little uncertain at first, thinking that the ancient books on King Huan's fiefdom were incomplete and Mingjiao was missing."
Therefore, because she didn't know whether Shen Yuqing came from time travel or learned Mingjiao martial arts from ancient books, she didn't take the initiative to find Shen Yuqing and reveal her identity. Moreover, the traversers themselves may not necessarily be allies, and sometimes they are exposed to death.
Now that it has been said, there is nothing to hesitate to hide. Concubine Yun simply reported her family background and said everything she needed to say.
"Sister Man and I are from the interstellar era, and she is my personal bodyguard. When we were going out, we were unlucky to encounter a car accident. I didn't expect Fu to survive and time travel."
It is not easy to encounter car accidents in the interstellar era. After all, the route is controlled by the brain, and there is no second car at the same altitude. Unless the data is wrong or something is wrong with the car, the cars will not collide.
When Concubine Yun traveled across time, she realized that she had become a princess, only ten years old. The princess has a cold temperament, which is different from her own. She was still panicking, but she found He Man who was wearing it.
With He Man around, she won't be afraid. He Man is the number one powerhouse in the interstellar ranks. All of them practice through the body training technique developed by experts, which can enhance their physique and combat effectiveness.
She found an excuse to let He Man come to her side as a maid, and with He Man's help, it was much easier for her to pretend to be the original owner, and she no longer had to worry about accidentally revealing her secrets. There are so many maids with high martial arts skills around her, and they are also guided by He Man.
"The relationship between the original owner and his mother and elder brother is not close, and they don't like the original owner very much." Simply put, a daughter/sister has no threat or help, so she can be raised casually, and it's fine to marry when she grows up, so don't worry about it. The original owner was able to be pierced by her soul because the two of them didn't care about the original owner, which caused the original owner to be accidentally killed by a woman in the backyard. After the original owner died, she took this body.
Concubine Yun has been acting tremblingly for nearly ten years. She survived the death of her family and escaped from the pursuit of the current King Huan with the help of He Man. The emperor came to cooperate with her, which was a timely help for her.
Although she doesn't care whether the revenge of the cheap relatives is repaid or not, it is best to take revenge, even if she repays the life owed to the original owner, and helps the original owner repay the kindness of nurturing.
She did have the contact information of her brother's old department, but they took the initiative to find her after her brother died, and wanted her to help lead the group of people. But she didn't have this idea, and she didn't think she had the ability, so she might as well rely on the emperor.
In order not to reveal her secrets, Concubine Yun could only exaggerate the character of the original owner under He Man's guidance. Originally just a somewhat deserted little girl, she was directly played by Concubine Yun into an iceberg beauty.
Speaking of this, she smiled self-deprecatingly: "I should be thankful that I was a young lady of a big family before crossing over. If I were an ordinary citizen, I wouldn't be able to survive so many years in Prince Huan's backyard."
Although she was not very involved in fighting in the original family, it's not that she doesn't know how to do these things, she just doesn't want to do them.
"So..." She looked at Shen Yuqing, "The trick you said can help me, what exactly is it?"
She is still busy looking for Weiwei to show her courtesy!
Although Weiwei can't tell whether she likes women or not, following her is better than following the dog emperor, right? She can still fight for it.
Weiwei is so cute, she definitely can't take advantage of the emperor. She finally fell in love with someone at first sight, even if she can't catch up, it's good to be a friend, such a beautiful and gentle young lady.
Shen Yuqing: "..."
The author has something to say: Author: Empress Guifei, the teammate you want has been brought to you, and now you are also someone who has time traveler teammates.
Concubine:? ? ? Why is Sister Poison's teammate a Daoist, and my teammate is an ordinary person? ?
Concubine Yun: Don't dislike me, okay? At least I have an interstellar powerhouse He Man by my side!
Concubine: But she can't even beat me :)
Author: It's as if the Taoist priest can beat the poisonous sister :)
Concubine: ...
