Want to win the palace fight? Better to be crazy than to be idiotic!
Chapter 46: The Moon is Unattainable
Not only Han She's hands and chest were numb, his entire body was numb.
Otherwise, he could just resign and give the title of the No. 1 guard in the palace to his junior sister.
Wang Qian had no intention of winning favor by hitting the wooden board. She just wanted to intimidate those who had evil intentions in the back garden and test the results of her practice.
After all, senior brother Han She is a male and cannot enter and leave the palace of concubines at will. He can only see them at the shareholders' meeting.
Unexpectedly, the result was quite good.
Wang Qian blew gently on the hole of her fist, her eyes as firm as ever.
She bowed to everyone around her and walked off the stage with a righteous look on her face.
Qin Feng'an picked up the teacup with trembling fingers and took another sip of tea to calm himself.
This emperor really can no longer serve.
Give way to others.
Wang Qian's move made Su Feiran's body tremble.
That fast, heavy and accurate punch seemed to hit her brain, and she suddenly remembered that Wang Qian seemed to have some prejudice against her.
"..."
Su Feiran felt a chill down his spine.
It is urgent to establish a good relationship with Wang Qian; Zeng Wenxin can put it aside for now.
Saving your life is the most important thing!
Yuxiao had no idea where she had gone just now. She hurried back and saw that her master's face was very dark. She asked, "Master, what's wrong with you? Did you catch a cold? Do you need me to accompany you for a walk?"
Su Feiran shook her head. She was afraid that she would run into Wang Qian while walking. She would dislike her and would punch her as soon as they met.
But when he saw Yuxiao making faces, it seemed like she had something to say and she had to avoid others.
Su Feiran had no choice but to get up and leave, saying to Xie Zhiqi beside him, "Excuse me for a moment."
Yu Xiao led Su Feiran to a corner a little further away from the venue. She no longer pretended to be calm and hurriedly told Su Feiran the reason for the incident:
"Master, this is bad! The painting you were going to present to His Majesty has been smeared with dirty water!"
"What did you say?"
Su Feiran was shocked. Could someone have done this on purpose?
The next moment she wanted to slap herself.
Of course someone did it on purpose, wanting to embarrass her and bring crime to the emperor!
At the shareholders' meeting, some concubines performed and some presented gifts.
Gu Cairen, who followed Wang Qian, prepared a half-person-high red jade agate that she had carved by hand in the past half month. She carved the agate into a crystal clear cabbage, but because the base stone was red, the result looked more like kimchi.
All the concubines who presented gifts had deposited their gifts in a storehouse not far from the Imperial Garden at noon or earlier today. When the shareholders' meeting came, the eunuchs would take them out one by one and present them to the emperor at the meeting, which would also open the eyes of the other concubines.
According to the gift-giving rules based on rank, it was still early for Su Feiran to make his turn, but the little time left was too short for him to prepare another gift.
"Yuxiao, take me to the warehouse."
Su Feiran calmed himself down. The more critical the moment, the more he couldn't panic!
Yu Xiao shook her head and said, "No. Although the storeroom is not far from the venue, it takes two or three incense sticks to walk back and forth. The master must not be away from the table for too long, otherwise people will suspect that the master has tampered with his paintings."
Su Feiran took a deep breath and said, "You're right. If I go, if someone else's gift is damaged, I'm afraid it will also be implicated."
"That's right." Yu Xiao said, "I didn't enter the room, so I didn't see with my own eyes how the master's paintings were damaged. But the eunuch on duty in the storehouse is good friends with me. When he was counting the inventory, he found that the master's paintings were different, so he sent someone to call me to inquire. It is also thanks to him that we can discuss the possibility of making up for it again."
Su Feiran counted the people who had grievances with him in his mind, and there were only two of them.
The person most likely to do such a thing is Yang Luoxiu.
But Yang Luoxiu was still being punished in the Buddhist temple, and her maid would never act on her own, as this matter had nothing to do with her.
The only other concubine who had a prejudice against Su Feiran was Wang Qian.
But Wang Qian acted uprightly. She had only been with everyone for half a month, but she was praised by the sisters as a person of high moral character. Su Feiran believed that she would not do such a thing.
Moreover, Wang Qian's personal maid Xiuzhe is timid and cowardly. Even if Wang Qian is temporarily possessed by another's body and ordered to do something bad, she probably wouldn't dare to do it.
So who could it be?
Could it be that there are potential rivals in the harem that she has not discovered?
Su Feiran thought about it for a long time, but still got nothing. She even wondered if she had offended someone because of her lack of sense of boundaries in her words and actions.
Thinking about it was no use, so Su Feiran asked Yu Xiao, "Besides the fact that my painting was destroyed, did the eunuch find anything else unusual?"
Yu Xiao shook her head: "Everything else is normal."
This is strange. Could it be that the person who destroyed the painting was really targeting her, Su Feiran?
“Oh, right!” Yu Xiao clapped her hands suddenly as if she remembered something. “The eunuch told me that there was a crabapple leaf on the ground!”
Su Feiran was stunned. Begonia leaves?
"Apart from the Chitang Garden, where else in the palace are crabapple blossoms planted?" Su Feiran's expression was uncertain.
Yuxiao thought for a while and replied, "There are indeed many places where crabapples are planted. However, the eunuch said that the leaves of that crabapple are dark green... I know that the crabapple with these leaves has flowers as red as blood. The only place in the palace that grows this kind of crabapple is the Chitang Garden."
Su Feiran was in a trance for a moment.
She remembered that half a month ago, when Yuxiao introduced Chitang Garden to her, she mentioned that Concubine Jia had planted crabapples all over the garden. When they were in full bloom, they were as red as fire. It would be difficult to find another place in the capital where crabapples bloomed so brightly.
"Even so, we can't conclude that it was Concubine Jia who did it." Su Feiran bit her lower lip, "That leaf could have been brought in by Concubine Jia's maid when she delivered the gift."
Yu Xiao looked at Su Feiran worriedly. She knew Su Feiran didn't want to believe it, but she had to burst her fantasy for Su Feiran.
"Master, Concubine Jia has been practicing her talent for half a month and has not prepared any gifts." Yu Xiao said bluntly, "Moreover, after all the gifts were stored in the warehouse, the eunuch personally cleaned the warehouse and would not leave any foreign objects on the ground."
"..."
Su Feiran frowned, and a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes.
She never expected this answer.
Was it Concubine Jia who did it?
Su Feiran was unwilling to believe it, but she had to believe it. Even though Concubine Jia seemed to be protecting her in the past, today the evidence was irrefutable.
There was no need for a young eunuch to deceive Yuxiao, and even use the name of Concubine Jia. Everything he said was probably true.
"Empress Jia is very powerful. Even if I know it was her who did it, what can I do?"
Su Feiran clenched his fists, wishing he could punch through the wall in front of him like Wang Qian did to vent his anger.
"Go back, I'll think of another way."
The two returned to the table one after the other. From the perspective of others, Su Feiran just took the maid out for some fresh air and did not leave the table for long.
