In the past, when the Lin family was glorious, the queen was indeed high and mighty, and Lin Zhiyao needed to flatter the queen.
The Queen might not even have the same status as Lin Zhiyao herself. She sneered, "Aunt, don't forget, I'm the one in power now."
What Lin Zhiyao said was that she had something in her hand, but the queen did not.
The Queen was so angry that her face turned red. She slammed her palm on the table and said, "Lin Zhiyao!"
Lin Zhiyao didn't want to talk to the Queen anymore. She glanced at Song Yushu and turned away.
"Look at this! Look at this! I was so worried about whether she was living well in the Prince's Mansion!" The Queen was so angry that her eyes turned black, and she covered her heart and fell into the chair.
Judging from the tone of your voice when talking to people, I really can't tell that you are worried about others. Song Yushu shook his head in his heart.
"Your Majesty, please calm down." Song Yushu comforted her perfunctorily. After all, she couldn't be too flattering, as that would seem fake.
"Isn't it just because she relies on Lin's..." The queen said halfway, and suddenly took back the words that were on her lips.
Song Yushu pretended not to hear and smiled slightly, "Whatever Miss Lin has, I may also have it. Moreover, if your majesty wants, I can help you return it to its original owner."
This is the truth. If we talk about money, Luoxue Villa has no less. If we talk about prestige in the court and among the people, Luoxue Villa also has it.
The last sentence of Song Yushu, "The property should be returned to its original owner," made the queen somewhat moved.
She had requested to be in charge of the secret vault that year, but the Queen Mother interfered and handed the management power to Lin Zhiyao, forcing her, as a queen, to oversee even the rewards, and she was ridiculed by the harem!
Seeing the Queen's increasingly excited expression, Song Yushu knew that his move was correct.
The Lin family is like an indestructible cockroach. Even if they were exiled, they could still rely on their secret power to become "local emperors". They could even keep exiles like Lin Zhiyao in the Prince's Mansion and even give them an identity.
Even the positions of the empress and the empress dowager remained unchanged. The bottom line was that the emperor increasingly believed in the art of checks and balances, as he was now old.
Fearing that the prince's power would surpass his own, he began to restrain himself from even Lu Zhixing, and even showed some bias from time to time.
Unless Lin himself "catches fire", he will still be a very useful sword in the emperor's hands.
"I'm a little tired. You, go back first." The queen was still a little hesitant. After all, everyone knew that Song Yushu had fought with Lin Zhiyao in the prince's mansion before.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Song Yushu did not try to persuade her any further. She believed that the Queen would not be able to control herself.
How could a person who once stood on the top of a mountain watch others dancing on the top of the mountain?
Maybe Lin Zhiyao went to Concubine Yu because she had a quarrel with the Queen, so she sided with Concubine Yu.
This allowed Concubine Yu to solve most of the expenses for the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet at once, and she became a hot figure in the palace for a while, while the Queen's Kunning Palace was not only a cold palace, but even worse than a cold palace.
"I heard that even the eunuchs and maids in the Queen's former palace have started to slack off, and the Queen was so angry that she smashed a lot of things in the house." Ling'er pouted, "The things she smashed are enough for ordinary people to eat for several lifetimes!"
Song Yushu picked up a secret letter with densely packed small dots on it, which looked very similar to the Braille she had seen in her previous life. As her fingers stroked over the raised dots, a familiar and warm feeling passed through her heart.
She had clearly never learned it, but after she ran her finger over it, she immediately understood what was written on it.
The secret letter was sent by Lu Zhixing, instructing her to pay attention that the maids and eunuchs in the Queen's palace were all controlled by the Queen Dowager, and the Queen Dowager knew everything she and the Queen were doing.
The fight between Lin Zhiyao and the Queen caused a conflict between the two. The Queen would soon tell Song Yushu what Lin Zhiyao had in her hands and ask her to help her.
The Queen Mother will not let Song Yushu go and asks her to be careful.
"The prince still cares about you. This ointment is very expensive, but he has never stopped using it." Ling'er whispered as she applied the scar removal ointment to Song Yushu.
Lu Zhixing has been very busy recently. The deficit in the national treasury has led to insufficient military pay. He has to allocate the silver and money in his hands to supplement the military rations, and he also has to be on guard against the prince and the emperor. He is extremely busy.
Song Yushu hasn't been able to see him since the last time he saw him in the Queen's Palace.
Song Yushu put the secret letter on the candle flame and burned it without responding to Ling'er. Lu Zhixing was a very good partner, considerate in everything and always followed her standards, but there was only one flaw.
He was the one vying for that position, and that was the position she wanted him to reach…
While they were talking, a palace maid came in and said, "Miss Song, the Queen wants to see you."
Ling'er glanced at her indifferently. She was familiar with this palace maid, but King Jing's men asked her to be more careful when delivering the letter, so she never let her guard down.
"Stand still." Ling'er suddenly pulled out the soft sword from her waist and placed it on the maid's neck. "What's in your sleeve pocket?!"
The palace maid realized that she was exposed and was about to open her mouth when Song Yushu suddenly appeared in front of her.
A moxibustion needle was instantly inserted into her face, preventing her from taking poison. Song Yushu shouted softly, "Remind Chunxiaqiudong immediately!"
Ling'er immediately pulled out the bone flute from her neck and blew a few sharp and penetrating notes. Immediately, the sound of action was heard outside.
Lu Zhixing had just sent the secret letter, and the Queen Mother had already taken action! She really didn't expect the Queen Mother to be so rampant, actually killing people in broad daylight?!
Ling'er and Song Yushu looked at each other, then knocked the palace maid unconscious and quickly tied her up.
"Master!" The first one to rush in was Achun. There was a big cut on her arm and blood was flowing out. When she came in and saw that Song Yushu was fine, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Song Yushu immediately took out a cloth bag from her arms. When she unfolded it, it was filled with densely packed moxibustion needles. She quickly gave Achun acupuncture to stop her bleeding wound.
"The knife that hurt you is poisonous, be patient!" Song Yushu took out a fire starter to disinfect the dagger, took a deep breath, and directly cut off a piece of flesh from the wound on Achun's arm.
At that moment, Ling'er sprinkled medicine powder on Achun and bandaged her quickly. Fortunately, Song Yushu sealed the major acupoints on Achun's arm and paralyzed her arm. As a result, Achun did not faint from the pain and she was able to barely maintain her sanity.
Ling'er supported Ah Chun, whose face was pale, and looked at Song Yushu, "Master..."
"Find Xia Qiudong, take this maid with you to the Queen's Palace!" Song Yushu looked at Ah Chun, "Can you still hold on?"
The group of people sent by the Queen Mother were ruthless and had no scruples. Achun couldn't let Song Yushu die on the way to save them.
"Xia Qiudong, your servant is here to see you. Master, please go to the Queen's Palace first..."
