It doesn’t matter, my boyfriend is a eunuch!

Chapter 43: The Old Lady Involves Palace Fighting

You can't fight in the palace. Not to mention her brain, even if she was promoted three levels, she would still be the lowest-level concubine in the harem. There is no way for her to reach the peak of her life, get a promotion and a raise to become a queen in the short term.

What's more, the emperor rarely goes to the harem. She has not even seen the emperor in a month since she traveled through time, let alone anything else.

Her only advantage is that she is younger than other concubines, so she can gain experience.

After a long time, she finally outlasted the other concubines and became the latest queen at the age of eighty.

An old lady in her eighties, who has no teeth, wants to travel through time. That's too cruel. It's better for her to just live in the Great Xia Dynasty.

This is not realistic. We still have to think about the Queen's side.

Lin Zhihe pulled Liu Li's ear and leaned over to his ear, "Can you steal this jade ring from the queen without anyone noticing?"

"No." Liu Li refused immediately.

Just as Lin Zhihe was about to feel disappointed, Liu Li immediately spoke up, "I'll go find out where the Queen's jade ring is."

Disappointment turned into confusion, and Lin Zhihe looked at Liu Li in doubt.

"If the Queen's jade ring is not carefully guarded, we can easily make a replica and replace the Queen's..."

"Substitute one thing for another?"

Liu Li nodded.

Oh my god, she can even speak idioms now.

It turns out that the environment has an infinite influence on people.

She suddenly looked at Liu Li, and seeing Liu Li's expression gradually panicked, she slowly said: "Liu Li, you are a very soft-hearted person."

Even though she helped Liu Li save his little niece, he was willing to help her even if it meant losing the head and killing all nine generations of her family, like the Queen's Jade Ring. It was probably because of his soft heart that he helped her.

Although there are only two people left in his nine clans...

Hearing that he was kind-hearted, Liu Lizang loosened his clenched index finger in his sleeve and took a barely noticeable breath.

"You do it first. I'll go and change the jade ring when the time comes. I promise I won't implicate you."

"Liu Li, from now on, I mean if, if I really get back with the old Lin Zhihe..." She paused for a few seconds, "Don't be so nice to her."

Liu Li smiled, but the smile did not reach her eyes, and she just shook her head.

There were too many emotions in his eyes that Lin Zhihe couldn't read.

"Let's split into two groups. My master will go to find the picture of the jade ring, and I will go to find out where the queen put the jade ring." Liu Li spoke quickly.

Lin Zhihe made an OK gesture and winked at Liu Li.

Although Liu Li didn't understand, she guessed that it was something from her world, so she followed suit and made an OK gesture in return.

What does a jade ring look like?

"Little Peach Blossom" Lin Zhihe looked at the person who was still watering the flowers and walked up to her. "You grew up in the Lin Mansion. You should have seen the Lin family's ancestral jade ring, right?"

Xiao Taohong stood up immediately and said, "Master, I have never seen it."

How can it be?

As if she could see Lin Zhihe's doubts, Xiao Taohong began to explain: "Master, this is an heirloom of the Lin family. It was first placed in the hands of the old lady, and later passed to the eldest lady. We have no chance to see it."

"Then who knows what this jade ring looks like?" Lin Zhihe tried his best to control his tone, not wanting to convey his anxious mood to her.

Xiao Taohong scratched her face, "Miss!"

...

How could she not know Lin Zhifu? She just wanted to avoid Lin Zhifu!

Looking at Xiao Taohong's innocent face, Lin Zhihe waved his hand and said, "That's all."

Xiao Taohong immediately squatted down and continued to water the flowers in the yard.

"Since we can't get around Lin Zhifu, why not just give up and ask someone to ask Lin Zhifu's maid and nanny to find out what the jade ring looks like." Lin Zhihe discussed with Liu Li.

Liu Li paused for a moment and refused, "No, going directly to Lin Zhifu would easily alert the enemy. The maids and nannies might not keep their mouths shut, and who knows when the news will leak out."

What should I do?

The sparks of hope that Lin Zhihe had ignited were completely extinguished by a rainstorm, leaving not even a spark.

"Leave it all to me. I'll go and sound out the Empress's opinion, and then ask the palace maids who have handled it what the jade ring looks like." Liu Li said very easily.

Originally each person had a task, but now both of them have been pushed to Liu Li. Lin Zhihe felt very guilty.

"Is there any risk? You ask someone what the jade ring looks like and where it is. This idiot should know what we want to do."

It was so obvious, the only thing missing was a note saying "The thief master stole the jade ring at three o'clock tonight" and then sticking the note on the queen's face.

"Whether a fool can know, go ask your little Taohong. If she can guess it, then the fool must have guessed it. If she can't figure it out, then it proves that the fool..." Before Liu Li could finish her words, she was glared at by Lin Zhihe, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.

"Xiao Taohong is just naive. You think everyone is like you, with eight hundred tricks on your mind."

The arc of Liu Li's mouth corners became bigger, and her voice was not as mechanical as before, "Master, don't worry, the person I found is definitely safe. He owes me a favor, and it's time to repay him this time."

Lin Zhihe looked at Liu Li and suddenly realized that she never really understood him. Was there someone around the Queen who owed him a favor?

She patted Liu Li's shoulder, which was broader and firmer than before, "Brother, I'm counting on you."

Liu Li nodded, "Well, it's up to me."

Just when Lin Zhihe thought that this matter was very complicated and it would take ten days or half a month to get any news, Liu Li had already thrown a jade ring in front of her.

She stroked the jade ring, which had a smooth texture and shone softly under the sunlight.

Not only the texture, but also the carving is excellent. The dragon pattern is lifelike, as if it is really leaping on the jade ring.

Lin Zhihe was shocked, "Did you find my piece?" She held the jade ring as if it were a life-saving straw.

"I asked someone to copy this." Liu Li said quickly.

She put the jade ring under the sunlight again and looked at it for a few more times. "The imitation is so good. The workmanship and material are so good." Lin Zhihe couldn't help but praise it.

A smug look appeared on Liu Li's face. He said softly, "It's just that time is tight, otherwise the imitation could be more realistic."

"Forget it, we don't pursue perfection, this is good enough." Lin Zhihe waved his hand to comfort Liu Li.

"But..." Liu Li suddenly began to hesitate, looked at Lin Zhihe's face and did not continue speaking.

Lin Zhihe had already prepared for the worst, and thought that he could accept all the bad news. He waved his hand and said, "Go ahead."

The smugness and pride on Liu Li's face disappeared, replaced by a rare nervous expression, "I have already inquired about it. There is a ruby ​​gilded filigree jewelry box on the Queen's dressing table..."

"Oh, the jade ring is placed there!" Lin Zhihe answered quickly.

"It's not there," Liu Li shook her head. "Next to this jewelry box there is a square cloisonné jewelry box."

With the previous experience as a lesson, Lin Zhihe tentatively asked uncertainly, "In this jewelry box?"

"Not here either." Liu Li answered decisively.

"You..." Liu Li suddenly spoke when Lin Zhihe's fist was only two centimeters away from Liu Li.

With a smile on his face and a flattering expression, he said, "Master, don't worry. There is a key in this cloisonné. Use the key to open the cabinet next to it. In the cabinet are the documents, seals, and jade rings for the empress's appointment."

Lin Zhihe retracted his fist and patted his shoulder encouragingly, "Well done."

"I'll find a reason to enter the Queen's bedroom, open the cabinet without anyone noticing, and then switch the items."

Lin Zhihe couldn't help but applaud himself, the plan worked!
