Cai Xiang told Nian Xia to go back and wait, while she went to Lady Fucha. "Your Highness, Nian Xia has already spoken up. She wants you to help her leave the Jingjun Mansion. Moreover, judging from her expression, she seems willing to do anything to leave!" Cai Xiang told Lady Fucha the situation.
Upon hearing this news, Lady Fucha lowered her head and pondered for a while. "Caixiang, you did very well this time, but whether Nianxia was truly driven out by Consort Xi or was merely sent out to gather information, we have no way of knowing."
Cai Xiang understood what Fucha meant and said, "Then I will not agree to her for now, but wait and see how she reacts before letting the noble lady decide."
Having fought with Lanqin for so long, Lady Fucha had gained a certain understanding of Lanqin's ways of doing things and dealing with people. This was the first time she had ever seen Lanqin so ruthless to her servants, so Lady Fucha became even more cautious about Nianxia.
“This Nianxia is a maidservant of Consort Xi, so I must be very familiar with her. If I put her by my side, it will definitely save me a lot of trouble in the future.” Hearing that Consort Fucha might give Nianxia an important position, she suddenly didn’t miss Xia’s visit to Zhongcui Palace as much.
Lady Fucha noticed Caixiang's change and comforted her, saying, "If this matter succeeds, I will certainly reward you handsomely."
Cai Xiang stood to the side, finally hearing what she had always wanted to hear. Her face was full of smiles, and her jealousy towards Nian Xia lessened.
Cai Xiang quickly added, "Your Highness, this is all I should do. I'm willing to do anything for your good." After discussing for a while, Lady Fucha dismissed Cai Xiang.
Nianxia had been waiting outside Zhongcui Palace. When she saw Caixiang walking towards her, she hurriedly went to greet her. "Sister, what did Consort Fucha say?" Nianxia asked anxiously.
Seeing Nianxia's nervousness, Nianxia looked embarrassed. "It's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that Consort Xi's power in the palace is too great, and I really dare not go against her!"
Seeing that there were very few people left, Nianxia slumped to the ground, a hint of jealousy flashing in her eyes.
I'm already in such a miserable state, and now I can't even beg for help. My hatred is growing stronger.
"As long as I can get out, I'm willing to help Consort Fucha!" Nianxia didn't care about anything else now; all she wanted was to leave. She couldn't blame herself for betraying Lanqin. It was all Lanqin's fault for driving her out; she was the one who pushed her step by step into the enemy's arms.
Seeing that she had taken the bait, Cai Xiang asked, "How are you going to help? Consort Xi controls the harem, while we, the Noble Lady, are weak and powerless, and we don't have the Emperor's favor. How can she possibly stand against Consort Xi?"
“I have served Consort Xi for five years. I know all her habits and her personality. As long as I can stay by Consort Fucha’s side, I will definitely be able to help her.” Nianxia didn’t know what she was doing. She was willing to do anything as long as she could leave this place.
Seeing that Nianxia's attitude was sincere and seemed to have no flaws, Caixiang believed that she had truly been driven out by Consort Xi. So she said to her, "Since that's the case, sister, since your attitude is so firm, I'll take you to see the Noble Lady. You can tell her your thoughts, and perhaps she will agree." Caixiang couldn't help but feel excited, having gained enough favor and demonstrated her abilities to the Noble Lady.
