Crossing the Palace Fighting Fox Harem

Chapter 197 Kill two birds with one stone

The extra maid was indeed Yizhen's...

It must be the maid who wiped her tears just now? The maid thought that she was going to punish her, so she cried in fear. How could such a timid maid have the courage to go against the concubine? She must have been threatened by Shui Furong and had no choice but to leave Yizhen.

Yizhen actually said that Shui Furong didn't bully her? Even the only palace maid was snatched away, how can this be called not bullying?

Ji Anni gritted her teeth in anger.

Shui Furong was quite nonchalant. She simply ignored the situation, turned back to her room, and slammed the door.

Ji Anni, who was chasing after him, was hit hard on the head by the door panel. She screamed in pain and her vision went black.

"Xiao Zhao, are you okay?" Yizhen hurried over to help her.

"It's okay, it's okay." Ji Anni rubbed the big bump on her forehead, and her mouth twitched in pain. In order not to worry Yizhen, she had to lie and say that she was fine. In fact, in her heart, she had already cut the immoral Shui Furong who slammed the door into pieces. Humph, let's see how long you can run rampant? Even if it's a crab, if you are used to walking on the sidewalk, sooner or later you will hit the wall.

"Xiao Zhao, let's go back." Yizhen seized the opportunity and pulled Ji Anni back while she was feeling pain in her forehead.

Ji Anni was so busy rubbing the big bump on her forehead that she forgot to resist Yizhen.

When she reacted, Yizhen had already grabbed her and she was dozens of steps away from Shui Furong's room.

At this time, Hua Rong, who was packing her luggage in the room, heard the noise, walked out worriedly, came to Ji Anni, and asked, "My queen, what's wrong? Why did you go to provoke Concubine Shui again?"

From what Hua Rong said, it seemed that she was accusing Ji Anni of causing trouble. Ji Anni felt wronged and defended herself, "Hua Rong, this time I didn't provoke her, but she provoked me. She must have been resentful that Yi Zhen didn't change rooms with her, so she deliberately snatched the maid away to avenge Yi Zhen! What kind of world is this? The palace is at least the emperor's nest, is there really no place to reason?"

"Your Majesty, do you still want to ask the Emperor for justice?" Hua Rong frowned.

"Even if we don't go to the emperor, there should be a place to reason, right?"

Ji Anni didn't want to be too close to the emperor, but she also didn't want to see Yizhen have no place to appeal.

Yizhen kept her head down and didn't say anything. When Ji Anni and Shui Furong were arguing, she was worried that something might happen, so she kept trying to stop them. Now that Ji Anni and Huarong were arguing, it was just a bickering, nothing serious would happen, so she didn't interrupt.

Ji Anni said, "Hua Rong, you are most familiar with the palace, what do you think we should do about this?"

Hua Rong pulled Ji Anni aside and whispered in a low voice, "Your Majesty, Concubine Su's maid was snatched away a long time ago. Do you think anyone in Concubine Su's palace would make a fuss? Your Majesty, please stop interfering."

"What? It was snatched away a long time ago? When did it happen? How come I didn't know? Since you, Huarong, knew it a long time ago, why didn't you say anything?" Ji Anni's tone sounded like she was blaming Huarong.

Hua Rong cleared herself of the matter with one sentence and said, "My Lady, Concubine Su Cong did not say anything herself, so why am I so nosy."

Now that’s great, how come it suddenly becomes Yizhen’s fault?

Ji Anni glared at Hua Rong and said, "You did it on purpose."

How could she not know what Hua Rong was thinking? Hua Rong just didn't want her to meddle in other people's business...

But how can Yizhen’s affairs be considered a trivial matter?

Ji Anni turned to Yizhen and said, "Yizhen, you are just too patient. Don't let them bully you."

"It's not a big deal..." Yizhen said softly, "and I'm used to it... Xiao Zhao, don't worry. If you annoy Consort Shui, it will never end."

"Ouch, ouch..." When Ji Anni heard Yizhen's words, she immediately covered her chest tightly and cried out in pain.

"Empress, what's wrong? What's wrong?" Hua Rong quickly helped her up and checked the situation.

"I... my stomach hurts." Ji Anni's eyes and eyebrows were wrinkled in pain.

"Hungry?" Hua Rong remembered that Ji Anni hadn't eaten yet, so she must be very hungry.

"Angry!" Ji Anni glared at her. Not only was the seven orifices smoking, but the stomach was already perforated! Eight orifices!

So what if I annoy Shui Furong?

If I give in this time, she will do something even more outrageous next time, and there will be no end to it.

By the way, if there is a problem in the girls’ dormitory, the first person to look for is of course the dormitory manager.

Ji Anni clapped her hands and finally came up with a solution: Well, let's find Yan Niang first! (Auntie...)

Yan Niang is the aunt in charge of the East and West Concubine Palaces. She is now in charge of everything that used to be done by Aunt Yu and Aunt Yang. Ji Anni is a little afraid of Yan Niang. She always feels that she will see through her and doesn't want to meet her directly. She wants Die Er to pass on the message, but Die Er can't speak. Alas, it seems that Hua Rong has to go...

Ji Anni said, "Hua Rong, go report Yi Zhen's matter to Yan Niang and see if she will take care of it."

Hua Rong sighed and said helplessly: "My Lady, do you think Yan Niang is blind? She must have known it a long time ago."

"Why don't you do anything if you know about it?" Could it be that Yan Niang is also afraid of Shui Furong? Ji Anni felt that Yan Niang was not that kind of person.

"Isn't Concubine Su living well anyway..."

Hua Rong's tone sounded very uncomfortable, and she seemed to be staying out of the matter.

Yizhen still didn't say anything and just stood aside with her head down.

Ji Anni pulled Yizhen and said excitedly, "What's good about Yizhen's life? You just bully those who are easy to bully."

"My lady, this matter has nothing to do with me..." How can you say that I bullied her? Hua Rong started to talk back.

"Knowing about the matter and not reporting it is also a crime. You clearly knew that Yizhen's maid was kidnapped, but you didn't say a word. Doesn't it clearly mean that you turned a blind eye to the bullying Yizhen suffered?" Ji Anni was a little disappointed with Hua Rong.

At this time, Die'er heard the noise and came out. Seeing that both Ji Anni and Hua Rong's faces looked a little dark, she pulled Hua Rong away as if to stop the fight.

In fact, when she was packing her luggage in the room just now, Die'er heard the quarrel outside the door and knew what was going on. Seeing Ji Anni and Hua Rong arguing, she came up with an idea.

Die'er pointed at herself and then at Yizhen.

Ji Anni's eyes lit up, and she suddenly realized, "Let Die'er serve Yizhen!"

First, Yizhen was in need of a maid, and second, Die'er also wanted to stay in the Dong Congfei Palace to work. If Die'er was allowed to serve Yizhen, wouldn't it be a good way to kill two birds with one stone? The only thing that made Ji Anni feel unhappy was that doing so would mean compromising with Shui Furong.

Hua Rong thought that letting Die'er serve Yizhen was better than snatching back the palace maid from Shui Furong.

So before Ji Anni could think it through, Hua Rong took the initiative to speak and said, "Well, let's do as the queen says. Let Die'er serve Concubine Su Congfei, and I will go and talk to Yan Niang."

After saying this, he turned and left, as if he was afraid that Ji Anni would go back on her word.

Ji Anni wanted to shout but couldn't. She could only watch Hua Rong's back walking away from the concubine's palace to the west.

Oh, forget it...

Ji Anni tried to think positively.

Although he compromised with Shui Furong, at least he could let Die'er stay, so it wasn't a losing deal.
