I just want to rob you of your luck
Chapter 263: Plundering the Concubine's Luck 31
After a cup of tea, Nanny Cai came back.
After coming back, his face looked a little unnatural.
Concubine Zhao could tell something was wrong at first glance.
She asked sternly, "Mammy, what happened? Don't hide it from me!"
Aunt Cai knew that she couldn't hide this matter, so she had to say, "Madam, you are still in confinement after giving birth. Please don't get angry after hearing this."
As soon as Concubine Zhao heard it, she knew that something must have happened to make her unhappy again.
"Did His Majesty restore that little bitch Lin Jiu'er to her position as a concubine?"
Madam Cai thought that this would be better.
She said helplessly: "Promising Zhao is still in Yuqing Palace and has not been released. Your Majesty has not visited her in the past few days."
Hearing this, Concubine Zhao felt a little better and sneered, "She deserves it. Since it's not her, what else is there to worry about?"
"His Majesty has taken in a new lady named Yao, and she was made a noble lady right after she entered the palace. His Majesty has been staying at the place of this noble lady Yao these past few days."
"What?! How could this happen? Where did this newcomer come from?"
"I heard that it was presented to Your Majesty by an official. She is said to be a girl from Jiangnan, and she is very gentle and lovely."
Concubine Zhao was so angry that her face turned pale and she felt dizzy. No wonder Zhu Heng hadn't come to see her in the past few days. Did he forget the old one when he had a new one?
She originally thought that after defeating Lin Jiuer, she could dominate the harem as before, but unexpectedly, Zhu Heng had a new one. She found that the biggest obstacle on her road to becoming queen was not the concubines in the harem, but Zhu Heng!
No matter how Zhu Heng ignored her, she always felt that he still had feelings for her.
Zhu Heng is her first love and the only man in her life. She has been deeply in love with him for so many years.
Even though she said many harsh words, she couldn't bear to do anything to hurt him.
But now she has completely given up.
This was all forced upon her by Zhu Heng, but for now she had to get her body in good shape before she could go out to fight.
After thinking this through, Concubine Zhao said coldly:
"Mammy, bring me the medicine."
Aunt Cai was surprised to see that she had actually persuaded herself to get well, but seeing her fighting spirit, she was naturally very happy.
He quickly prepared the medicine again.
In Yuqing Palace, Lin Jiuer also heard that Zhu Heng had a new love, Concubine Yao.
In response, she just smiled faintly.
This harem of cannibalism only hears the laughter of new people and never the cries of old ones.
However, since she discovered that Zhu Heng often came to see her secretly at night, she no longer worried that she would fall out of favor.
As long as it wasn't Concubine Zhao who was favored, she would be happy to see it happen no matter who was favored.
And she's going to add fuel to the fire.
Although Lin Jiuer was demoted, she was not confined to her room, and Yuling was allowed to go out.
One day, Yuling came back with a letter, which she said was given to her by Eunuch Fushun.
Lin Jiuer smiled, probably thinking that her brother had found out something.
She opened the letter and saw that, as expected, the situation of Imperial Physician Wen's family had been investigated thoroughly.
It turned out that the wife of Imperial Physician Wen was the distant niece of the wife of Duke Zhao. The two families had always had a good relationship, so it was no wonder that he would conceal the fact that Concubine Zhao had an unstable fetus, but most people didn't know about it.
Since my brother has already delivered the letter to her, His Majesty must have also received the news.
"Yuling, please do me a favor. Go out and spread the news that His Majesty intends to restore my position as a concubine."
Yuling was a little surprised, but she didn't ask any more questions and just went out to do it.
There are many women in the harem, and there are also many gossipers. The news quickly spread throughout the harem.
When Concubine Zhao heard the news, she smashed another bowl of medicine.
"Mammy, I can't stand it anymore. Tonight, you should contact the people that father has planted in the harem and burn down Yuqing Palace.
I don't care whether others are favored or not, I must get rid of this little bitch Lin Jiuer first to relieve the hatred in my heart!"
Nanny Zhao was a little conflicted. It was not a wise move to set fire to Yuqing Palace at this time.
"My lady, this news has not been confirmed yet. Why don't you take care of yourself first?"
"Do we have to wait until that little bitch regains her position as a concubine before we take action? Wouldn't that make things even more difficult?"
"But……"
"How dare you disobey my orders?!"
Madam Cai had no choice but to say, "I'll do it right away!"
A fire broke out in Yuqing Palace at night. Fortunately, Yingyi had been guarding there and rescued Lin Jiuer who was sleeping before the fire started.
Yuling was completely unaware of the situation. She was so scared that she burst into tears when she was rescued, thinking that Lin Jiuer had had an accident.
Seeing Lin Jiuer standing in the yard wrapped in a quilt, he finally felt relieved. After getting the news, Zhu Heng went to Yuqing Palace as soon as possible.
He didn't care about anything else and just hugged Lin Jiuer.
Feeling the person in his arms trembling with fear, he said guiltily: "Jiu'er, it's my fault. I shouldn't have treated you like this. I just heard that you had a fire here, and I was so scared that I almost suffocated."
Lin Jiuer raised her black and gray face and looked at Zhu Heng with grievance and forbearance: "I thought I would never see Your Majesty again in this life."
"Nonsense! I won't allow you to say such unlucky words!"
"Fushun, pass on my order. After investigation, it is found that it is not true that Lin Ying caused Concubine Zhao to have a miscarriage. Lin Ying is reinstated as a concubine, given the title of Shu, and is moved back to Changle Palace immediately."
Fu Shun immediately took the order to draft an edict and arranged for people to help Lin Jiuer move back to Changle Palace.
Lin Jiuer looked at Zhu Heng in shock, her eyes gradually filling with tears.
"Your Majesty, have you finally believed that I was wronged?"
Zhu Heng felt a little guilty and didn't dare to look Lin Jiuer in the eye.
He knew from the beginning that Lin Jiuer was wrongly accused, but in order to protect her safety and to paralyze Concubine Zhao and Duke Zhao's Mansion, he had to let Lin Jiuer live in Yuqing Palace.
"Jiu'er, I have wronged you. I will personally send you to Changle Palace."
"In addition, I will also personally investigate who was so bold as to set fire and kill people in the harem!"
Yuling was so happy that she cried. Her master's injustice was finally redressed.
Only Concubine Zhao was so angry that she almost vomited blood. The people she sent out to inquire about the news said that they saw His Majesty personally go to pick up Lin Da Ying, no, she was now Shu Fei, and sent her back to Changle Palace.
Concubine Zhao screamed in anger: "Madam Cai, how could this happen? Didn't you say that everything had been arranged?"
Nanny Cai felt bitter in her heart. She regretted returning to serve Concubine Zhao. She was an old woman and was ordered around every day.
Isn't it good to stay at home and enjoy the company of your grandchildren? Why bother entering the palace and getting involved in this mess?
"My lady, I did find the insider of the Duke's Mansion according to your instructions, and Yuqing Palace was indeed set on fire. Who knew that Lin Jiuer was so lucky that she was rescued by someone? Fortunately, those people were death warriors, so they are not afraid of being caught."
Concubine Zhao frowned and thought for a while, then she suddenly burst into laughter, her laughter was sad and mournful.
In this harem, the only one who could rescue people out in the middle of the night without anyone noticing was Zhu Heng's shadow guard. It turned out that she had been deceived by him all along.
"Zhu Heng, you are such an unfaithful man. You claimed that you loved Empress Sun the most, but I schemed against you a few times and you ignored her. You only regretted it after she died.
Later you said you liked me, but then you started to ignore me again after you got Lin Jiuer. It turns out your love is so cheap and so short-lived. I want to see how long this Lin Jiuer can stay in your favor!"
