"This person did have some interactions with Seventeen, but Seventeen had long ago severed contact with her. These things are already in the past. This person has nothing to do with Seventeen now and cannot affect Seventeen.
Why, did you hear something, or…"
The Queen Mother was slightly startled and immediately asked.
Zhen Cai was one of the chess pieces she secretly used. Originally, Jing Xi was supposed to keep an eye on her, but Jing Xi was inexplicably sent to the Xinzheku. From then on, Zhen Cai became a chess piece that could not be controlled at will.
The Queen Mother didn't care much about this matter.
She had originally made arrangements and paved many paths for Zhen Cha, and even wanted Wen Yi to recognize Zhen Cha as her mother, to increase Zhen Cha's importance and make Feng Yinzhen love her even more.
However, Wen Yi's affairs were messed up, and Zhen Cai was really disappointing. Although she had a face that looked like Queen Hunfang and won Feng Yinzhen's attention, for some reason, she could not get more favor.
She often made mistakes, said the wrong things, and did the wrong things, and the position she had been promised not only failed to be promoted but was demoted. Now, because her father had committed a crime, she was running around like a headless fly, which made Feng Yinzhen very unhappy.
Therefore, the Queen Mother had already hidden the idea of throwing away this chess piece in her heart, so when she heard that Jingxi went to Xinzheku, she was indifferent.
After all, she had already verified that Zhen Cai was a stupid and useless chess piece, and her father had recently gotten into trouble, so this chess piece should be useless and could be thrown away.
But today Min Yu specifically mentioned this person, and the Queen Mother couldn't help but pay attention to her.
What did this woman do again?
Seeing that the Queen Mother was so nervous that her body was slightly tense, Min Yu quickly touched her back twice to comfort her and spoke softly.
"It's not a serious matter. Su'er, don't worry too much. It's just that this person has come to Seventeen's palace for help several times before. First, it was her personal maid Liu Zhu. Not long ago, she even disguised herself and left the palace to see Seventeen. She rushed to the gate of the palace and asked to see Seventeen."
"What? When did this happen? This audacious bitch, is she trying to kill my Seventeen?
She had previously deliberately seduced Seventeen and almost led him astray. Now she actually dared to harass Seventeen like this. Was she trying to kill Seventeen?
Big brother, Seventeen is Su'er's beloved and only child. Seventeen's big event must be accomplished, and Su'er will not allow any mistakes. This bitch actually did something like this. If Feng Yinzhen hears about it, then..."
When the Queen Mother heard Min Yu's words, she immediately became furious and screamed.
Her soft face was no longer shy, and veins on her forehead were bulging with anxiety.
Just now she was far away and in the dim candlelight, so she looked okay. But now she became nervous and moved closer to Min Yu's face, which was closer to the candlelight. The candlelight reflected the lines and wrinkles on her face.
Min Yu's eyes flashed, and the feeling of doting in his heart instantly dissipated half, but he always had a good attitude, and his palm was still stroking the empress dowager's back to comfort her.
"Su'er, don't worry, wait for me to finish what I'm saying.
I have suppressed this matter. Zhen Qia never met Shiqi, and Shiqi had no idea that Zhen Qia wanted to see him.
You know how I handle things. This matter has been kept secret from everyone, and not a single word of it will reach the emperor's ears.
I also know that Su'er has always been concerned about Seventeen's affairs, so there will be no omissions in this matter."
"Oh, that's good, that's good, big brother, thanks to you being here, thanks to you protecting Seventeen, my mother and I are safe.
I'm sorry for the trouble you've taken on this matter. Su'er will repay you well."
Upon hearing that the matter had been suppressed, the Queen Mother finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But then Min Yu frowned and changed the subject.
"It's just that, when I was dealing with this matter, I found that someone seemed to be following Zhen Cai from behind. Although I can't find out who it is, I can be sure that it's not someone from the palace.
I've heard recently that this court lady Zhen and Imperial Concubine Hua have become close, so I'm worried that the person who followed Zhen to the Seventeenth Prince's Palace might be Imperial Concubine Hua's man."
"Someone from the Nian family?" The smile on the empress dowager's face froze instantly, and she took a deep breath.
The Nian family can be said to be very popular recently.
General Younian won a battle and was about to return to the court. Feng Yinzhen even wanted to personally hold a banquet to celebrate his victory.
There is Concubine Hua, who has been favored by the emperor since she gave birth to Princess Feng Wanwan of the Gulun clan. Although there have been some minor setbacks in the harem, overall, Concubine Hua is still the unshakable favorite.
And it seemed that because of these two people, Feng Yinzhen paid special attention to other members of the Nian family, promoted them one by one, and placed them in important positions in the court.
The Nian family grew bigger and more prosperous.
The emperor's favor is the best support. Even though Concubine Hua is in the harem, it is not difficult for her to reach out from outside the palace and mobilize a few people to work for her.
The person who followed Zhen Cai might indeed have been arranged by Concubine Hua.
They have found out all this, so does that mean that Concubine Hua has already noticed the unusual relationship between Zhen Cai and Shi Qi?
Moreover, Zhen Qia went to the Yiku Palace for help and knelt at the gate of the Yiku Palace for two hours to gain the approval of Concubine Hua. From then on, she had close contacts with Concubine Hua every day.
How could someone like Concubine Hua forgive Zhen Cai just because she knelt for two hours? And how could she easily be willing to make friends with a woman who had always been against her?
