Chapter 928
Huo Zhao and the others, separated by several palace walls, had no idea what was happening inside the palace.
Even as night fell, Jixiang remained uneasy: "Young Madam, do you think Consort Qu can believe you?"
Given Huo Zhao's previous attitude, it's quite absurd that he would suddenly come to Qu Pin's door and say such things.
"I don't know if she'll believe it."
Huo Zhaodao.
"Huh?" Jixiang blinked. "No, weren't you so sure she would believe you that you risked going to the palace? How come you don't know about this?"
Seeing Huo Zhao's imposing manner when he entered the palace, Jixiang thought he was sure to win!
“Oh, just trying our luck,” Huo Zhao said. “Anyway, we didn’t have any other options at the time, so we just used whatever came to mind. What if we got lucky and it worked?”
Ji Xiang and Le An exchanged a glance, both feeling helpless.
Can you really crash like that?
Shen Rang chuckled: "But I think there's a 90% chance this will work out."
Seeing that the three of them, master and servant, were all looking at him, Shen Rang took Huo Zhao's hand in his palm before speaking: "Everyone knows that Consort Qu is favored. Consort Jing has also been getting a lot of attention in front of His Majesty recently because of Consort Qu. I heard that whenever His Majesty and Consort Qu go on a trip, they always take Consort Jing with them. His Majesty has also been visiting Consort Jing's palace much more often than before."
Although Consort Jing is an old servant in the palace and has some influence with the emperor, it's not a deep one. If they don't see each other, he won't even remember her. It's not as reliable as having someone constantly around the emperor now.
Therefore, although it may seem that Consort Qu is relying on Consort Jing, in reality, Consort Jing is even more dependent on Consort Qu.
Le'an still didn't understand: "So it seems that these two have a pretty good relationship?"
Huo Zhao sighed helplessly: "When Consort Qu first entered the palace, Consort Jing did help her a lot, but now that she has established herself in the palace, Consort Jing not only can't help her anymore, but she's also sucking blood off her. Can Consort Qu just stand by and watch?"
When Consort Qu entered the palace, it was to prevent her mother and younger brother from being bullied.
But now, even the motive for entering the palace is questionable.
If Consort Qu really believes it, the harem is going to get quite lively.
Let's wait and see.
——
Ten days have passed in the blink of an eye.
Sure enough, news came from the palace.
For some unknown reason, Consort Jing offended the Emperor and was demoted to the rank of Noble Lady.
Consort Qu was promoted to the rank of Imperial Concubine and given a title.
Xi.
The layout of the palace hadn't changed for many years, so I never expected it to change so suddenly.
Moreover, who doesn't know about the relationship between Consort Qu and Consort Jing?
Now that one has been demoted while the other has been promoted to the rank of concubine, it's obvious to everyone that there must have been a conflict between the two.
Upon hearing the news, Zhong Jie couldn't sit still and immediately went to Shanshui Residence.
At that time, Huo Zhao was unaware of this news. Upon hearing Zhong Jie's words, she couldn't help but widen her eyes: "This Consort Xi actually has such methods?"
That's Consort Jing!
Huo Zhao had met Consort Jing before, and later, he had dealt with this Consort Jing more than once, both openly and secretly, and knew how difficult she was to deal with.
Unexpectedly, Qu Ling actually managed to subdue this person.
Huo Zhao now felt that Qu Ling was completely unfamiliar to him.
Not long ago, Qu Ling was a fool who was used as a weapon, but she has already transformed in such a short time since entering the palace.
Zhong Jie clapped her hands with joy: "That bitch has finally met her match! Zhao Zhao, you really made the right move!"
Zhong Jie now wishes she could skin Consort Jing alive. Knowing that Consort Jing had fallen, the fact that she didn't directly order fireworks to be lit was already considered restraint.
Seeing Zhong Jie so excited, Huo Zhao smiled, pursing his lips.
It's rare to see Zhong Jie so happy.
“This is definitely not over yet,” Zhong Jie jumped up. “I need to have someone keep an eye on it!”
After saying that, Zhong Jie left in a hurry.
