Chapter 110 She's Going Crazy
What Pei Tingyue didn't expect was Queen Cui's attitude.
After seeing her "sincerity", he didn't ask any more questions, just looked at her meaningfully, and then readily agreed to the cooperation.
These things sneaked into Yaohua Palace quietly, and as for Chunqi, she will be sent out of the palace after the matter is settled.
After Concubine Li saw her blood, things happened as expected.
Evidence was found in Yaohua Palace, and Concubine Shen Liang became Concubine Shen.
Thinking of the vicious look that Concubine Shen gave her when she was helped out by the palace maid, Pei Tingyue curled the corners of her lips.
The reason why she took the risk to find Queen Cui and join forces to set up this game was not just to see Concubine Shen demoted.
She wanted Concubine Shen to completely collapse.
Now it seems that Concubine Shen is indeed on the verge of collapse, and she hates her to death.
This is really great.
Pei Tingyue sighed, "My play is not over yet, Concubine Shen, please don't let me down."
Yun Shu stood aside, looking a little bewildered. "Jieyu, what are you talking about?"
Pei Tingyue retracted his gaze from the void and turned to look at her, "You'll know when you turn around."
Yun Shu didn't ask any further. She would know Jieyu's plan sooner or later anyway. "Oh."
Pei Tingyue then ordered: "Go to the bedroom and find two hundred silver coins. I can use them."
Although Yun Shu was surprised that she wanted so much silver at one time, after hearing that it would be useful, he hurried into the bedroom to look for it.
After a while, she took out two indigo purses.
"Jieyu, this package is one hundred taels."
Pei Tingyue nodded, placed the purse on the small table, and casually asked, "How much silver do we have left?"
The emperor gave her eight hundred taels of silver, and she rewarded people several times. When the plaque of Bixiao Palace fell, she rewarded Liang An and Liang Fu with one hundred taels of silver.
She didn't spend much on the rest, except that she occasionally went to the imperial kitchen to improve her meals. The cost was not much, only a few taels each time.
After deducting these two hundred taels, she estimated that there would be about three hundred and fifty taels left.
Yun Shu was very careful with the silver. She knew by heart how much was in the box. She immediately replied, "There are still over 360 taels left, and a few taels of change."
Pei Tingyue nodded.
It was pretty much as she expected. If she saved the remaining money and added it to her monthly allowance, it would last her for another six months. After she gave birth, she expected the Emperor or Empress Dowager to give her a reward.
If not, she would ask the emperor directly.
Now that the child is born, it’s not too much to ask for some money, right?
In fact, she can have one now, but she wants a big one. After giving birth to a child, she will be more willing to ask for a bigger one.
Pei Tingyue suppressed these chaotic thoughts, picked up a bag of silver and handed it to Yunshu.
"My pregnancy is a happy occasion, so I have to give out rewards. This package is one hundred taels. You, Yun Zheng, Liang An, and Liang Fu will each receive ten taels. Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter, as well as the four new eunuchs who are serving as servants, will each receive five taels. As for the remaining twenty taels, you can divide it equally among the palace servants in the front hall so that everyone can share in the joy."
Yun Shu took it and smiled happily, "Then I will distribute it to them after they have put the items in order."
Pei Tingyue said calmly: "There is no need to ask them to come and thank you. Let them all go and rest. Just ask Liang An to come."
"yes."
After Yun Shu left, Pei Tingyue had nothing to do, so she picked up the lilac-colored bellyband with flower and bird patterns that she had not finished embroidering a few days ago and continued embroidering it.
Although she was not sure whether it was a boy or a girl in her belly, Pei Tingyue inexplicably felt that it might be a girl, so she chose this color.
It doesn't matter if it's a boy. Although the color is a little pink, the pattern is suitable. He can wear it in his own room and no one will laugh at him.
She embroidered every stitch carefully.
Once the feathers around the kingfisher are mended, the bellyband is completed.
Pei Tingyue had just taken a sip of pear tea when Yun Shu happened to come over with Liang An.
As soon as Liang An came in, he bowed respectfully: "Jieyu, you are looking for me."
Pei Tingyue asked him to stand up and looked at Yun Shu: "Find him a stool."
Liang An was a little apprehensive: "Jieyu, I can just stand."
Pei Tingyue didn't listen to him and asked Yun Shu to come over. Then he said, "I called you here to discuss something important. Please sit down."
Liang An was still a little hesitant, and Yun Shu pressed his shoulders and asked him to sit down. "Oh, if Concubine Jieyu asks you to sit, then sit down."
Liang An looked up at Yun Shu helplessly, then sat down quietly, "Just give me your instructions, Concubine."
Pei Tingyue said seriously, "There is indeed one thing."
Her expression was serious, and both people in the hall could see it.
Liang An was extremely alert, while Yun Shu went to guard the palace gate.
Pei Tingyue considered his words and said slowly, "There's something I want to ask you if you know."
"Just tell me, Concubine, I will tell you everything I know."
"Your Majesty, I was once given a cold medicine that caused infertility."
Liang An clenched his fists and widened his eyes.
Pei Tingyue looked at his reaction and understood, "You know."
It's not a question, it's an affirmative sentence.
Liang An's face was solemn. He took a long breath and said, "I know. The punishment I received was related to this matter."
Pei Tingyue didn't know this, so she asked in detail. After hearing the reason, she sighed, "I didn't expect that you would be punished for this. It's me who has implicated you."
"How can you blame Concubine Yu for this? It's my fault. I shouldn't try to guess your Majesty's mind. But why did Concubine Yu suddenly say this?"
Pei Tingyue raised her eyes to look at him: "Concubine Shen is in front of the emperor, does she have any spies?"
Liang An thought for a moment and said, "Yes, but they are probably guards. The eunuchs in front of the emperor have been disciplined by my godfather several times, so no one dares to have second thoughts."
Pei Tingyue said softly, "Tell Concubine Shen's spies about the emperor giving me cold medicine."
Liang An was shocked.
Pei Tingyue saw his surprised look and thought that this matter was not easy to do, "I know this is a bit difficult..."
Liang An quickly shook his head after reacting: "Jieyu has misunderstood. This is easy to do, but I am surprised. Why did Jieyu do this?"
Is there any benefit in revealing this to Concubine Shen?
Pei Tingyue lowered her eyes and said with a smile, "Of course, I want to let Concubine Shen know so that she can use it to attack me."
These days, Concubine Shen has experienced a dramatic change in her family, and was demoted by her and the Queen. Her spirit is on the verge of collapse, and she will completely collapse if she is slightly stimulated by the outside world.
And this is exactly the effect Pei Tingyue wants.
If Concubine Shen knew that the emperor had given her cold medicine and was provoked by her again, she would definitely not be able to help but use this matter to attack her.
By then, it will be her turn to go crazy.
She has been trying to please the emperor for so long, it is time to switch places and let her control and influence the emperor's emotions.
She wanted to expose all the exploitation, shame, and hypocrisy between them. She wanted the emperor to love her purely from now on. She wanted to personally plunge the "dagger" that had pierced the palace into the emperor's heart.
Originally, Pei Tingyue didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
On the one hand, she originally lacked confidence and was afraid that she was not that important in the emperor's heart and the dagger could not be inserted.
On the other hand, she was also afraid that she would go too far and be completely ignored by the emperor.
But now, she knew that the emperor was only sincere to her, and with the child as a backup, she could do this with peace of mind.
Liang An was puzzled by her thoughts. "My servant is stupid, and Concubine is..."
Pei Tingyue smiled and gave him a brief explanation.
Liang An was secretly shocked after hearing this.
His own concubine actually wanted to completely "dominate" the emperor's feelings.
But after listening to it, he didn't think it was a fantasy. This plan was completely feasible!
Liang An once again felt fortunate for his original choice.
He felt that staying with Jieyu might one day be better than the path left for him by his godfather.
"I will do whatever the Concubine orders."
Pei Tingyue smiled and pushed the purse on the table over. "To do this, you need silver. Take this hundred taels. If it's not enough, ask me for more."
Liang An did not refuse the silver. He accepted it and said, "This amount of silver is more than enough. My Lady, please wait for good news from me."
