On the second day, the Qianqing Palace was very lively. Since the emperor finished his morning court, the concubines in the harem came to the Yangxin Palace one after another.

Seeing another large group of people approaching, Xiao Xiazi immediately knelt down and greeted: "Welcome to the Queen Mother, may the Queen Mother be well!"

When the people entered the hall, a young eunuch couldn't help but whisper to him.

The unimportant person asked, "Eunuch Xia, how many waves of people have come today? Noble Lady Fucha came smiling and left angrily. When Concubine Hua left, her face was full of displeasure. Even the Queen came once."

Xiao Xiazi glanced around stealthily and gently scolded, "There's a lot going on in the palace right now, and the Emperor is still furious. Be careful with your words. If someone overhears, no one will dare to plead for you."

The young eunuch nodded and bowed with a smile: "Yes, yes, what Eunuch Xia said is true."

In the hall, the emperor and the queen mother sat on either side. The queen mother looked at Yinzhen a few times and said earnestly,

"Liping has gone crazy, so her crazy words are naturally unreliable."

"In my opinion, it would be better to demote her to a commoner and banish her to the cold palace. As for Concubine Hua, first remove her authority to assist in managing the six palaces, give her the cold shoulder, and then restore her position after a while."

"Your Majesty is right. I think so too." Yinzhen agreed faintly.

The Empress Dowager hesitated for a moment, then continued, "I wonder how the Emperor plans to deal with this Concubine Wan?"

Looking at Yinzhen's frown and indecisive look, it is true that the emperor of the Qing Dynasty is a romantic man.

"This person plotted to murder the concubines and practiced witchcraft and sorcery in the palace. It's reasonable to sentence him to death or exterminate his entire clan."

Yinzhen immediately retorted: "This Concubine Wan is also excusable. She was poisoned at the beginning, and it was Concubine Li who ordered it. This Concubine Wan is also..."

The Queen Mother said with some dismay, "Since the Emperor is reluctant to let her go, then demote her to a concubine. This will teach her a lesson and let her know what she can and cannot do in this palace."

Seeing that the Queen Mother was willing to give in, Yinzhen breathed a sigh of relief: "Your son will listen to the Queen Mother." Then he chuckled twice.

The Queen Mother reminded her unhappily, "I really don't like the character of this Concubine Wan. You can favor her, but you must know when to stop and don't overdo it."

Since the matter had been agreed upon, she sent someone to find Yixiu. She was not surprised to hear the outcome.

Having been married to the emperor for decades, she had some understanding of him. Sure enough, the emperor still couldn't bear to part with his sister.

The Emperor then asked, "Concubine Ning was frightened yesterday. How is she now?"

Hearing this, Yixiu felt a pang of sorrow in her heart, but she remained expressionless: "I have already sent someone to inquire about it, and it is nothing serious. Just rest for two days and you will be fine."

What a pity! Why wasn’t she involved in this incident?

Then, Yixiu suddenly thought of Concubine Li and found it interesting again: "Your Majesty, since Concubine Li has been demoted to a commoner, why not give the vacant Qixiang Palace to Concubine Ning?"

"Concubine Ning is about to give birth. It's not convenient for her to live in Xianfu Palace all the time. The main hall is more spacious. Isn't Qixiang Palace just right?"

"The Queen is indeed very thoughtful. In that case, please proceed with the design!"

Yixiu left happily: "I just don't believe that you can resist taking action even though I've opened the door so conveniently for you."

On the third day, the ghost-playing incident that had caused a lot of uproar in the palace finally came to an end.

Xianfu Palace

Shen Meizhuang was very surprised when she received the imperial edict. She had considered every palace in the palace, but had never thought of Qixiang Palace.

Now that the imperial edict has been issued, let’s go and take a look!

When Shen Meizhuang left, she specifically called Xiao Luzi with her. She intended to replace Xiao Luzi as the chief eunuch, but he was still a little young and needed more training.

Xiao Luzi's face was always calm. Even when he was about to be sent to Shenxingsi, there was no fear on his face.

"Mature beyond his years" is the most appropriate description of him. Although he is only sixteen or seventeen years old, he keeps silent all day long and pretends to be profound.

If there wasn't a hint of gloom in his eyes, she would have suspected that he was a psychopath.

After receiving the order, Xiao Luzi did not leave immediately, but called Xiao Fuzi over and gave him instructions.

"The palace gate must be guarded tightly, and no one is allowed to enter."

Xiao Fuzi was still very afraid of his brother. He was a lively person and if he made a mistake, his brother would beat him to death!

Shen Meizhuang found it funny. They were obviously brothers, but their personalities were completely different.

One of them runs out all day long and has a lively personality and can't calm down. The other one, no matter how many ways you try to arouse his emotions, he doesn't give you any response at all, which makes people feel very frustrated.

As soon as Shen Meizhuang stood still in Qixiang Palace, Cao Qinmo hurried out.

She is well-informed. I wonder how many people in the palace have been bribed by her, including the former Lipin's people and spies in other people's palaces.

Shen Meizhuang frowned, feeling a bit troubled! She finally understood why the Queen had given her the Qixiang Palace to live in.

"Your servant pays homage to Concubine Ning!" Cao Qinmo said with a smile.

"No need to be so polite, Consort Cao. I just received an imperial decree and came to take a look."

Cao Qinmo smiled and agreed, "Then I will accompany you for a walk!"

Shen Meizhuang couldn't refuse either. She just couldn't like Cao Qinmo.

The only thing that can be praised about her is that everyone in the palace wants a son, but she is only thinking about her daughter. Everything she does is motivated by her daughter. Such maternal love is touching.

But apart from that, she is ambitious, knows how to hide her ambition, and knows how to take advantage of everything, hiding in the dark like a poisonous snake.

She is good at observation and can taste different flavors in insignificant things.

She had a lot of things to do. Her study and her notes were all kept secret. She could not let Cao Qinmo find out what was going on between her and Wen Shichu.

Even if he could get hold of something against her, he was afraid she would bite him back in the end. How would he handle this? He needed to think carefully.

He first walked around the front and back yards of Qixiang Palace, then walked into the main hall.

People from the Imperial Household Department have already started to remove Lipin's belongings one after another, and similarly, some people are adding things to them.

She just saw a vase passing by her and a strange fragrance entered her nose.

Shen Meizhuang frowned and sighed inwardly, thinking that he never forgot to cause trouble.

Look at this, she hasn’t even moved in yet, but everything has already been arranged. How could this person just not stop?

No matter how you try to divert her gaze or avoid her, it's useless. She'll just stare at you. Yixiu is going crazy trying to get an abortion.

Yixiu, Yixiu! You dare to reach out your hand to me? Don't blame me for chopping off your hand.
