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

Fei Wan looked at Xiao Linzi quietly, waiting for his reply.

When Xiao Linzi was a eunuch in front of the emperor, she would always maintain a kind and gentle image in front of him.

But now that Xiao Linzi was about to become her subordinate, she no longer needed to pretend. She would show off her scheming and sharpness.

If Xiao Linzi can't even accept this, then he is useless.

"My lord, I will obey your orders! You gave me a way out. When you allow me to take revenge on that bastard, I will start again!"

Fei Wan was not disappointed. Xiao Linzi was stunned for only a moment and then quickly agreed.

The light in his eyes grew brighter.

He had previously suspected that Lady Zhao might not be as weak as she appeared, and now that it had been confirmed, he was actually very excited.

It is more reassuring to follow a master who is simply lucky than to follow a master who is capable!

Luck will disappear, but your abilities will become stronger and stronger.

He couldn't wait any longer and was rubbing his hands in anticipation, wanting to soar to the sky with Lady Zhao.

In this world, who really wants to waste time at the bottom and be oppressed?

Even if he is a eunuch without roots, he still has ambitions to rise to the top!

"I swear my loyalty until death. May my lady be promoted to the Imperial Consort soon!"

He composed himself and bowed solemnly to Fei Wan.

Officially recognize the master.

Fei Wan smiled slightly.

Imperial Concubine?

That was not the position she wanted.

The throne above the imperial concubine is her initial goal.

But that's just the beginning.

This narrow and closed palace cannot accommodate her ambition!

"Get up. Xiangyi, go find Xiaohui and get another batch of silver for our little Linzi."

"Yes."

Xiangyi went to do it immediately.

Xiaohui manages Feiwan's money and belongings, and all withdrawals are made with her.

Soon Xiangyi brought the silver ingot.

Xiao Linzi was directly frightened.

He thought it was an ordinary small silver ingot, one or two taels, three or five taels or something like that, but it turned out to be a whole snow-white silver ingot of fifty taels.

Xiangyi handed it to him, but he hesitated and didn't dare to take it.

Xiang Yi smiled and said, "Because of this incident, the eight people in our courtyard have just received rewards from the young master, and everyone gets the same. If Eunuch Lin is sincere in joining us, then he can take it. If he is unwilling to take it, then he will be treated differently from the rest of us."

Xiao Linzi quickly replied, "I don't dare to call you that, sister. Call me Xiao Linzi, or Lin Bao."

And thanked Fei Wan again.

Holding the heavy silver ingot in his hand, he felt mixed emotions.

He had entered the palace at a young age and, after more than a decade of hard work, had become somewhat of a figure in the imperial court. He had received awards from the emperor, the empress dowager, the concubines in the palace, and even the wives of officials from outside the palace.

But this is the first time I’ve taken so much.

Fifty taels.

If it were in the outside world, it would be enough for an ordinary family in the capital to live on for two years.

If you go to a poor rural area and spend money frugally, you can survive for ten or eight years.

Princess Zhao is so generous!

Xiao Linzi once again confirmed that he had not chosen the wrong master.

I heard Fei Wan ask: "Which one is the bao in your name?"

He quickly replied, "My dear, it's a treasure of treasures."

Fei Wan smiled at the eunuch Dong Bao standing next to her and said, "Same word as yours."

Dongbao was a man of few words. Upon hearing this, he just bowed and lowered his head without saying anything.

Fei Wan said, "The masters in the palace always like to give the eunuchs this name, either 'Bao' for treasure or 'Bao' for protection. But in the end, who treats you as a treasure, who protects you, it's all just for their own pleasure."

Xiang Yi smiled and said, "Just like what the young lady said just now, just rely on yourself. Let Lin Bao and Dong Bao treat themselves as treasures and protect themselves."

"Yeah." Dongbao responded in a muffled voice.

Xiao Linzi said sweetly: "Before I cherish myself, I will cherish the young lady and all the sisters and father-in-laws first."

This made Feiwan and Xiangyi laugh.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore." Fei Wan asked him, "You followed Eunuch Cao to Fengyi Palace today. Tell me what you saw and heard."

Xiao Linzi reported, "The Palace Administration Office has discovered that Jiang Xi, the eunuch in charge of Fengyi Palace, kept several prostitutes and opera singers in his private residence outside the palace. The filthy medicine came from one of these opera singers. A large package was found in the secret compartment of his room, and the exact quantity and ingredients matched. Two other opera singers testified that one day Jiang Xi took some of the medicine, wrapped it up in a package, and brought it into the palace, never to return. The opera singer who prepared the medicine has since fled, and the Tiger Guards are secretly pursuing him, but they haven't found him yet."

Yuan Shuren's maidservant reported that Jiang Xi had given her a packet of medicine while delivering a reward to Yuan Shuren. She used half of it, and the other half was hidden under the floor tiles under the bed, where the Palace Justice Department had already dug it out. Yuan Shuren, however, refused to admit it, but with the witnesses and evidence, it was useless for her to deny it.

Fei Wan listened silently.

He nodded slightly.

Everything was going according to her plan.

There was actually no medicine powder in Jiang Xi's house.

But the actors had been abused by him for a long time and had no way to survive, so they had been waiting for an opportunity to take revenge.

Once you get the chance to kill him, you will naturally cooperate.

All Fei Wan did was to ask Dong Bao to find a reliable acquaintance to leave the palace and instigate the actors to rebel.

The escape route for the actor who ran away had been arranged long ago. He was probably thousands of miles away at this time and would never return to Beijing in his lifetime.

Jiang Xi was framed.

But he is not wronged.

Because the medicinal powder in Wu Xiangrong's courtyard wall was secretly put in by him after making several detours and instructing someone to do so.

Just give someone a taste of their own medicine!

He certainly didn't expect that with several people in between, he could still be traced back to him. The people in Fengyi Palace never left any evidence behind, but Fei Wan had lived through a lifetime and knew that he often did dirty things for the Queen in private, so she had been secretly watching his movements for a long time.

There are also Zhishu and Wu Xiangrong.

One is a low-ranking palace maid who knows everyone and can get information that is difficult to obtain on the surface.

One is an old man in the Qiandi Palace. Even if she is not favored, she still has her own connections. These connections are not easy to help her gain favor, but they can still help her find out some things and keep an eye on some people.

With several approaches taken, Jiang Xi could not escape the trap.

Fei Wan asked again: "Is the Queen's illness serious?"

"It's not serious." Xiao Linzi whispered, "Doctor Wen diagnosed it as a momentary attack of anger. The vomiting of blood looks scary, but it doesn't affect anything. Judging from his attitude, it's actually okay not to take medicine, but he still prescribed two doses, fulfilling his duty."

"What did your Majesty say?"

"His Majesty said that since the Queen is ill, she should take good care of herself. For the next month, the concubines are not required to disturb her morning and evening visits."

It's equivalent to depriving her of a month's glory!

The queen usually attaches great importance to the daily greetings from concubines.

This was the second major blow that Concubine Xian suffered after she assisted in the management of the harem.

Fei Wan narrowed her eyes.

If the queen dares to continue targeting, then the attacks will come one after another and she will be overwhelmed.

"Are there any other punishments? Just not being allowed to receive greetings for a month?"

Xiangyi asked.
