Chapter 2470 This idiot!
She looked at the two of them, her gaze as cold as an icy sword. "Consort Xin, I'm announcing a strict investigation of the harem, and I want you to supervise each other. You and Concubine Jing have always had a distant relationship. Why did you go to Xianfu Palace to look for her so early in the morning?"
“…”
"What did you say to her?"
“…”
"You didn't go to her on the day I announced the strict investigation of the harem, but went to her the next day after a night had passed."
“…”
"I'm afraid you were thinking about it that night."
“…”
"Only after I've thought it through and made a decision will I go to Xianfu Palace early the next morning."
“…”
"I am right, am I not?"
When Xin Mimi heard her ask this, she was panicked. She didn't expect that every word the imperial concubine said was as if she had seen it all happen with her own eyes.
She even had some doubts as to whether the imperial concubine had really arranged people to keep an eye on them.
Only then will you know everything so thoroughly.
She stammered, "I, I just—"
For a moment, she didn't know what to say.
Nan Yan looked at her calmly. Although he didn't show any anger or even intimidation, his eyes were as cold as a sword, and when he looked into her eyes, they had already pierced into her heart.
Xin Mimi suddenly trembled.
Nan Yan said in a deep voice: "What are you going to say to her?"
She whispered, "I, I..."
Nan Yan said, "Ms. Xin, you can't tell me, so why not let me guess?"
Xin Mimi looked at her with wide eyes.
Nan Yan also looked at her and said, "Not long after that, you came to me and reported Kang Jieyu's misconduct. So, if I'm not mistaken—"
Her eyes flickered as she said coldly, "You went to Xianfu Palace to discuss this matter with Concubine Jing, right?"
“…”
"You wanted to inform on Concubine Kang, or perhaps someone told you that if you acted first and brought the other person down, you could save yourself. You listened to that person, and that's why you came to me and said those things, right?"
“……!”
At this moment, Xin Mimi's breathing was almost suffocated.
She shrank back, looking at Nan Yan, and said in a trembling voice with disbelief: "My Lady, you, you, you sent someone to keep an eye on us?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone around let out a low cry.
When Xin Mimi said this, she was already admitting that everything Nan Yan said was true and she did so.
Zhu Feng was sitting behind the desk. When he heard all this, his eyes flashed slightly.
He still didn't say anything.
And Chen Lianxiang, who was standing aside, turned pale.
He gritted his teeth and cursed inwardly: This idiot!
How could the Imperial Concubine possibly send someone to spy on someone in the harem? That was the way the lower five gates did it. After all, she was from a prominent family, and now she was the head of all the concubines. Moreover, after the death of Empress Renxiao, she took over the Phoenix Seal, which made her almost the nominal successor to the Empress.
If she sent someone to spy on her in the harem and the news got out, her reputation would be greatly affected.
Even the emperor would not allow such a thing to happen!
Therefore, it was impossible for her to really know those things, and what she said was just her guess.
However, she did not expect that she could accurately deduce all of this based solely on the time at which those events occurred, as if she had really seen it with her own eyes, and she even used such words to deceive Xin Mimi.
Unfortunately, Xin Mimi has never seen the world.
He actually admitted it directly after being tricked by her!
