Crazy Queen, Striving to Become the Most Beautiful Lady in the Harem

Ye Yushuang said, "Okay, let's do as Junxue said. I'll take care of the money you earn for you."

Lin Junxue smiled

This step is a precautionary measure. Although it is unlikely that she will leave the palace in this lifetime, there is always a one in ten thousand chance. Who can predict what will happen in the future?

The antiques and toys that Xie Yu rewarded were indeed priceless, but they were all inanimate objects. To be honest, they were only for show.

If I could really leave the palace one day, what would be the use of those rewards? They were things I couldn't take with me at all. They were just illusions, nothing real except for the silver notes.

Lin Junxue and Ye Yushuang stayed in Zhonghe Palace and chatted for nearly two hours.

Originally, Xie Yu granted grace, meaning that Ye Yushuang could have dinner in Zhonghe Palace before leaving the palace.

However, Ye Yushuang did not stay for dinner, and Lin Junxue did not stop her.

When Ye Yushuang was leaving, Lin Junxue did not show up, but gave Ye Yushuang a lot of gifts and asked her to take them back to the general's mansion.

Taiwu Hall

Xie Yu listened to Gao Cheng's report, his eyes gradually becoming deep.

Today, Ye Yushuang's every move after entering the palace was under his control, except for the two hours she spent chatting with the Queen in Zhonghe Palace.

Gao Cheng glanced at Xie Yu's face, and then said, "Your Majesty, today, I have carefully checked. Among the things that the Queen Mother gave to General Lin's wife, there are no letters or suspicious objects. Don't worry, when Madam Lin left the palace, I pretended to let the servants sprinkle water on the corners of Madam Lin's clothes. While the palace maids were cleaning up Madam Lin, I searched inside and out, but did not find anything suspicious. I think the Queen Mother and Madam Lin were just chatting about some family matters."

Although Xie Yu had a crush on Lin Junxue, he still didn't trust her, so this time he gave Lin Junxue the grace to let Ye Yushuang enter the palace to meet him.

On the one hand, it was indeed to make Lin Junxue happy. On the other hand, Xie Yu also intended to test whether Lin Junxue would take this opportunity to pass a letter to Lin Wei and his son through Ye Yushuang.

Fortunately, Lin Junxue did not disappoint him, and Ye Yushuang did not have such a letter on her.

Xie Yu said in a deep voice, "Okay, I understand. Since the Queen has rewarded Ye Yushuang, pass on my order to reward the General's Mansion with 100 taels of gold, and then go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to pick out some good items and reward them to the General's Mansion together."

Gao Cheng said quickly, "Well, I will do it right away. I'm sure the Queen will be happy to know that the Emperor has rewarded the General's Mansion so generously."

Xie Yu thought of Lin Junxue's coquettish look and curled his lips.

“Go ahead and do it.”

on carriage

When the Lin family's carriage left the palace with the rewards.

Ye Yushuang reached out and pulled open the curtain, looking at the palace buildings in the distance.

She thought of what Lin Junxue had just said and sighed deeply.

Once you enter the palace, it's like entering a deep sea. In this life, as the queen, will Jun Xue really be able to leave this deep palace one day?

Zhaoshui has been with Ye Yushuang for many years, and has never seen her so sad.

"Madam, are you thinking about the Queen? I never thought that the Queen has really become a different person. I can't believe it. Today, I was shocked to hear what the Queen said."

Ye Yushuang lowered the curtain, sat up straight, and looked at Zhao Shui.

"The Empress has loved the Emperor since she was a child. When she was young, she wanted to marry him wholeheartedly. Later, she even threatened to die before finally fulfilling her wish. Although the Eunuch and Xu Xuan did not say it, they have been stationed on the border for so many years, working hard to accumulate military merits, just to make the Emperor treat the Empress well. But in the past few years, the Emperor first took Chen Xier into the harem. After several years of pampering, Chen Xier became the most favored Concubine Xi in the harem. Some time ago, the Emperor even confined the Empress to house arrest for half a year for Chen Xier. The loss of a son and confinement should have made the Empress understand and sober, so I am not surprised by the changes today."

Zhaoshui continued, "Madam, today, I listened to what the Queen said. The Queen really thought it through. Just now, it was just as the Queen expected. Fortunately, you made preparations in advance."

Zhaoshui lowered his voice, but his eyes fell on the extra hairpin on Ye Yushuang's head.

The hairpin is plain-looking, very ordinary and inconspicuous.

It was Lin Junxue who personally inserted it for Ye Yushuang when she was leaving, and said something.

"This hairpin must be kept well and never be separated from you."

At that moment, Ye Yushuang understood what it meant, and everything was said without words when she and Lin Junxue looked into each other's eyes.

Before Ye Yushuang left Zhonghe Palace, Lin Junxue whispered something in her ear.

"If you encounter someone who is blind along the way, just let it go."

Ye Yushuang's expression also became much more solemn. She took off the hairpin that Lin Junxue had personally put on her head and placed it on her palm.

Just now, on her way out of the palace, she was bumped into by a palace maid and the corner of her clothes got wet.

It was obvious that the palace maid came prepared. It was easy for her to walk through such a wide palace path, but she just happened to bump into him while carrying a basin of water.

This method and the performance of that palace maid are really not worthy of being shown in public.

Thinking of Lin Junxue's words, Ye Yushuang played along and followed the plan of the person behind the scenes, but she could not find out anything.

Apart from the private conversations between her and the Queen in Zhonghe Palace, the real thing was the hairpin in her hand.

No matter who it is, no one would ever imagine that this hairpin is the real "secret".

Ye Yushuang put away the hairpin carefully. Inside it was a letter from the Queen to her father-in-law and Xu Xuan, and there must not be any mistakes.

She had a feeling that the letter in the hairpin could definitely change a lot of things.

Zhonghe Palace

Qiao Xin walked in quickly, looked at Lin Junxue sitting on the chaise longue, and spoke softly

"My queen, you guessed right again. Gao Cheng's men tampered with the official road that the young lady left on, but the young lady responded calmly and nothing unexpected happened."

Lin Junxue put down the black piece in her hand and slowly raised her eyes.

Xie Yu seemed to have fallen in love with her, but in fact he didn't trust her at all. He tested her everywhere and was suspicious of her.

Lin Junxue said slowly, "The emperor never trusts me. He is just afraid that I, his sister-in-law, will take away things that I shouldn't take. It's okay."

Qiao Xin nodded, "Fortunately, the queen is well prepared."

Lin Junxue nodded calmly

"Pass the order down. From tomorrow until the Mid-Autumn Festival, you don't have to pay respects at Zhonghe Palace in the morning."

Qiao Xin frowned, "Your Majesty, if we have been exempted from paying respects for such a long time, and now Imperial Concubine Xi has been given the power to assist in managing the six palaces, I am afraid that everyone in the harem will plot against our Zhonghe Palace behind our backs, and let Imperial Concubine Xi take all the power."

Lin Junxue picked up another white piece and placed it on the chessboard. She looked at Qiao Xin who was worried, and smiled calmly.

"Qiao Xin, have you ever heard a saying?"

"If you want to destroy it, you must first make it crazy. Chen Xier wants power, so just give it to her. I'm afraid she doesn't want it."
