The guards just reported on Miss Ling's behavior at Zuixianju, which certainly seemed like something she would do.
But, that subtle difference is still different.
Yin Xuanmo's sharp black eyes darkened slightly.
Ling Jing was indeed the woman that surprised him the most since he came to Dajing.
At this moment, in the palace where Concubine Wen lives.
After hearing what the maid-like person reported, the seemingly elegant Concubine Wen was so angry that she slapped the table and said, "This bastard!"
"Empress!" The servants were shocked and someone immediately stepped forward to check her hand.
Concubine Wen's hand hurt, but it was nothing compared to the anger in her heart.
"This bastard wanted to poison someone, and he did it in public. Where's his brain?"
The so-called brother-in-law of Concubine Wen before Zuixianju was really her brother-in-law. Although he was not a direct relative, he was not born with five blessings. Everyone has a few annoying relatives. This brother-in-law who was not born with five blessings often did things under her name, and she knew it.
But as long as nothing goes wrong and nothing gets out of hand, we can just turn a blind eye to it.
This is true for everyone, even the emperor's trouble-making relatives.
only!
Concubine Wen's chest heaved. She had never seen anyone who was such a hindrance!
The maid who reported the news was the maid brought by Concubine Wen's family as a dowry. She said carefully, "The reason why the palace sent her here is... My uncle originally wanted to use the death of the second son of the Jia family to extort a fortune from Zuixianju..."
Concubine Wen was so angry that she was shaking.
"Why blackmail Zuixianju when you can blackmail anyone else!" Even though she was a person in the palace, she knew that Zuixianju was not as simple as it seemed.
Being the leading restaurant in Kyoto, it can’t be a place that is easy to cheat!
It's so stupid, so stupid!
He took a deep breath and suppressed the rage in his chest. "What is his purpose in poisoning and killing people?!"
"My uncle... My uncle owed that Second Master Jia a huge gambling debt. He didn't dare to ask the mansion for the money, so he came up with this idea of killing someone with poison and extorting money at the same time to kill two birds with one stone..."
"Kill two birds with one stone?" Concubine Wen sneered, "You also call this killing two birds with one stone?"
"I think it will be a matter of time before I am dragged to death by them!"
"My queen, the matter has already happened. We have to find a way to cover it up. Now the government only says that the death of the second son of Jia has nothing to do with Zuixianju, and they haven't found out that it's my uncle. If they find out that it's my uncle..."
Concubine Wen did not respond to this, but instead asked, "You said that Master Jia also went to Zuixianju to make trouble?"
"Yes. My uncle suffered a loss because he knew the character of Mr. Jia. He wanted to cause trouble for Miss Ling who ruined his plan. After all, Mr. Jia has always been unreasonable and has a stupid mind and dares to bite anything...but..."
"However, not only did Master Jia fail to teach Third Miss Ling a lesson as he wished, but he lost his tongue instead!"
The senior palace maid lowered her head, not knowing what to say.
Concubine Wen was so angry that she didn't want to get involved in this mess, but it was not a question of whether she wanted to get involved or not.
She waved her hand, signaling the others to go down first. Only the head maid was left. The look in her eyes suddenly became much more fierce, "Where is Miss Ling San now?"
"My lady, we are leaving Zuixianju now."
"You said before that, besides her maid, there were two men with extraordinary looks and temperaments with her?" A strange light flashed in Concubine Wen's eyes.
"Yes, that's what the informant said. But after they left Zuixianju, the two men did not go to Huichuntang with Miss Ling San. Instead, they went their separate ways." The head palace maid told the news.
"Send someone to follow those two people and find out their identities!" Concubine Wen, who had basically regained her composure, gave the order without hesitation. She added, "The food at Zuixianju is indeed delicious, but I still think that Miss Ling went to Zuixianju several times, maybe not just for a meal. Add some people and keep a close eye on Zuixianju!"
With a calm expression, "It seems that this lady and Miss Ling San are not meant to be friends."
But in just one day, she came to the palace in the morning, not only did she not greet her, but she also slapped the maid next to her. In the afternoon, there was the involvement of Zuixianju again.
The senior palace maid understood, but she was also worried about another problem.
"Your Majesty, if we send out so many people, I'm afraid we won't be able to hide it from the Jinyiwei."
"Oh, how many things in the capital can be hidden from the Jinyiwei's eyes? They are not gods, but as long as they want to know, what can't they find out? It's just a matter of time." Concubine Wen raised a mocking arc at the corner of her mouth, "Miss Ling San said those arrogant words in front of me this morning, do you really think I completely believe it?"
"The Regent is a little bit special to her, but it's not certain how special he is. Otherwise, he wouldn't have let her go through all the ups and downs!"
The mockery was even stronger, "Ling Jing... is just a small fish and shrimp that got dragged into the fight between the Dragon Kings!"
"Your Highness, are you saying..."
Concubine Wen's eyes were filled with cold sarcasm. "No matter the emperor or the regent, at a certain point, they will not be able to tolerate the General's Mansion. Once the big tree of General Ling in the General's Mansion falls, Ling Jing will be nothing. What's more..."
The old Buddha in the palace also couldn't tolerate Ling Jing.
Otherwise, did their brains get eaten by dogs this morning?
Just run into and cause trouble for Ling Jing without caring about anything?
However, that person was just very clever. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't find out what was wrong with her. The scapegoat had already been prepared.
But in a moment, Concubine Wen regained her normal expression, "Alright, she's not important. Just keep an eye on her. What we need to do now is to spread the word and have the palace clean up the mess made by my good 'brother-in-law'!"
The head maid naturally understood.
The uncle-in-law poisoned someone and foolishly let the elder Jia, the brother of the dead Jia Er, to make such a fuss. The matter had become so serious that it had to be suppressed. Most importantly, he wanted to find a scapegoat to bear the truth of Jia Er's death.
No matter what, we can't involve the mansion.
"I will arrange it right away."
Just as she was about to leave, Concubine Wen called her back, "Of course, Miss Ling cut off someone's tongue. The Jia family should not be so tolerant..."
This means...
Use the fake mansion to find trouble for Miss Ling San!
After the palace maid left, Concubine Wen took a sip of tea calmly.
It wasn't that she had to make things difficult for Ling Jing. It was just that the palace was filled with blood and gore. In order to keep her position, there were some things that she had to obey and do.
Besides, Baili Feiyue, who was being missed by many people, was now on the carriage heading to Huichuntang.
