The queen is sober in the world, and she is winning every step of the palace fight.

Chapter 80 Wu Ronghua was arrested and taken to the palace

"Sister Zhao, did you know that Wu Ronghua was taken away by Gong Zhengsi's men?"

The next morning, Consort Su from Changle Palace came to see Fei Wan.

"what?!"

Fei Wan suddenly stood up from her chair, extremely surprised.

"What's going on, Sister Su, tell me quickly!"

She walked quickly towards Concubine Su, but pulled the wound on her body, and couldn't help but bend over with a cry of "ouch".

The maid quickly supported him: "My lady...how are you?"

"Ah? Sister Zhao, does your injury still hurt?" Concubine Su pretended to be concerned.

Fei Wan frowned and smiled bitterly, "It hurts... I'm afraid it will take a while to recover. I've been thinking about going to Changle Palace to visit the Concubine Xian and my sisters, but I just don't feel well."

"If you're injured, take good care of yourself. We all know how much you care."

Concubine Su accompanied Fei Wan's maids and helped Fei Wan back to sit on the chair.

I secretly hope that Fei Wan’s injury will never heal.

So as to avoid taking up other people's sleeping arrangements.

"Sister Su, please tell me quickly, what happened to Sister Wu?" Fei Wan asked weakly, rubbing her waist and abdomen.

In fact, she was just pretending to be in pain.

It was just to show the people of Concubine Xian's faction that her injury had not healed yet and she needed to continue resting.

Not only was he not allowed to attend the daily morning and evening visits to the Concubine Xian in Fengyi Palace, he was also not allowed to visit her alone.

In order to avoid the recent conflict between the Queen and the Concubine.

When the virtuous concubine took office, it was the time when she found fault with the old practices of the queen everywhere, and friction and conflicts were inevitable. That's why Fei Wan didn't want to get involved in this mess.

He took Zhishu, who used being frightened as an excuse, with him to recuperate and hide from the spotlight.

"Wu Ronghua's Zhuhui Palace is right next to yours, how could you not hear anything?" Consort Su said with a worried yet unconcealed excitement. "I happened to be passing by and saw the steward nanny from the Palace Administration Office's Criminal Office lead a group of people. They rushed into Wu Ronghua's place and escorted her away, taking away several of her personal servants along with them."

Fei Wan's tone was particularly puzzled: "But... why?"

"I also found it strange, so I went to ask the nanny, but she said it was confidential and refused to tell me. Later, when I brought up the virtuous concubine, she finally revealed a few things. It turns out..."

Concubine Su deliberately kept the secret.

Fei Wan secretly laughed and cooperated: "So what is it, sister, please tell me!"

"So, it's because of what happened the night His Majesty felt dizzy. It was the incident in which Ying Cainu and Xiao Luzi hanged themselves. Wu Ronghua was implicated!"

"Ah? Sister Wu was also framed and drugs were planted in her residence?"

Concubine Su spitted out a curse, "You still think she's a good person? She's not the one being framed, she's the one framing others. I saw it with my own eyes. The people in the torture chamber pushed aside an old brick in the corner of her courtyard wall and pulled out a huge bag of powdered medicine from the hole in the wall! It's said that the medicine in Yuan's hand originated from her!"

Oh, I knew that a long time ago.

Fei Wanxin said.

We have been overly vigilant these days. If we can't even find the powder in the wall, then all our efforts will be in vain!

On the surface, Fei Wan pretended to be very surprised.

After being stunned for a while, he slowly shook his head and said, "I don't believe it... I don't believe that Sister Wu is such a person..."

Consort Su snorted softly and warned, "Sister Zhao, although His Majesty values ​​you, you're still a newcomer. You don't know how things are in this palace. You can only see the surface, not the heart. People like Consort Xian and me, who speak their mind, are extremely rare. From now on, you should avoid hanging out with those smiling tigers and spend more time in Changle Palace."

"Well...thank you Sister Su for the advice."

Fei Wan answered in a confused manner.

He looked as if he had not yet recovered from the shock.

Seeing this, Concubine Su sighed, "You're so slow... but you're truly blessed with good fortune. The Yuan family schemed to bribe someone to place something dirty in your place, yet you easily evaded it. The Palace Administration Office searched the place and found nothing. You're truly lucky."

Fei Wan knew that she was testing his strength again.

It has been confirmed that Concubine Yuan bribed the palace maid who was receiving the punishment to throw a bag of medicine powder into the room of Guanlan Courtyard.

But when the Palace Administration Office searched, they did not find any medicine bag, but only the embroidered scarf she had used to pray for the concubines.

So where did the medicine bag go?

When the Palace Administration Office inquired about the details, Fei Wan remained clueless. However, the maid in charge of sweeping the Guanlan Courtyard said with a silly look on her face:

"One day, while cleaning the young master's room, I swept out some things from behind the cabinet. There were fallen fruits from flowers and trees, scattered rice beads, a bag of incense powder of some kind, and some dust from the corner. It was a huge mess, and I swept it all away."

The eunuch in charge of the investigation frowned: "What kind of powder bag?"

"It's about this big... a piece of khaki straw paper, wrapped with some not-so-white powder. It's covered in dirt and very dirty. I threw it away."

"When you're cleaning the house, why do you think of sweeping the corners behind the cabinets?"

"Because I'm a meticulous worker!" The little palace maid opened her eyes wide, extremely serious. "When I was in the Xinzheku, I was the best worker. The leading aunt gave me all the dirty and tiring work, and I worked from dawn to midnight and couldn't finish it. The aunt trusted me very much. Princess Zhao transferred me to her side, she must have taken a fancy to my good work, so I must clean Guanlan Courtyard inside and out!"

The eunuch from the Palace Administration Office let her go with disdain.

Everyone knows that Lady Zhao randomly rescues people from the Xinzheku just to fulfill a vow. This foolish servant girl actually thinks she was specially transferred here. She must be mentally ill.

The strange thing about Fei Wan being set upon but not finding anything dirty was just covered up like this.

Even the emperor, who later heard the report from the Palace Administration Office, had no doubts.

When the people in the palace heard about this, they thought that Fei Wan was cunning and unfathomable, but most people still believed that good people will be rewarded. It was because Fei Wan was willing to save people that he was lucky enough to get the silly little palace maid, and thus avoided the calculation invisibly.

As a result, the incense in several Buddhist temples in the palace has become more prosperous in the past two days, and many palace concubines have gone there to worship Buddha and pray for blessings.

Who doesn’t want to be as lucky as Fei Wan, to gain the emperor’s favor and avoid hidden arrows?

But at this time, Concubine Su brought up this topic again.

Fei Wan knew that she was here to question Concubine Xian.

How could it be such a coincidence?

Fei Wan said, "That's right. Even fools have their own luck. Sister Su is absolutely right. Thinking back to my childhood, I've endured hardship and poverty, and lived as a slave. Many times, I almost couldn't survive, but I've made it to where I am today, cared for by His Majesty, the Consort Xian, and my sisters. I guess it's the gods and Buddhas who bless their believers!"

Concubine Su rolled her eyes secretly in her heart.

After chatting with Fei Wan for a while, he said goodbye.

Fei Wan walked her to the gate of the courtyard and gently reminded her, "Sister, if you have any news about Sister Wu, please be sure to tell me."

"must."

Consort Su took her people away.

She didn't notice the smile that slowly appeared on Fei Wan's face behind her.

"Your Majesty, I don't know if that Zhaocairen is really stupid or just too clever. She keeps her mouth shut and I haven't been able to find out anything."

Concubine Su returned to Changle Palace and immediately went to see Concubine Xian.

Concubine Xian asked, "Then watch her and see if she knows about Wu Ronghua's hidden medicinal powder?"

"I don't think her shock is fake." Concubine Su carefully recalled Fei Wan's every move and shook her head. "If she was pretending so well, it would be very scary."

The virtuous concubine was silent for a moment.

A gleam flashed in his eyes: "It seems that she is so terrifying. I really underestimated her before!"

Consort Su was shocked.

"What do you mean, empress?"
