This was also tacitly approved by the Rong family.
Everything is for the family; for the family's interests, anything can be given up.
"Have you found out any news?"
Empress Dowager Rong had actually anticipated this uprising, since there had been no news of Sheng Changfeng's death in Jiangnan.
She sent people to inquire several times, but they couldn't find out the truth about Sheng Changfeng. Some said he was sick, some said he was poisoned, some said he didn't have much time left, and some said he had already recovered.
She couldn't be sure what was true or false, since the person was hiding very well and hadn't given her people a chance.
If we're talking about what to do when we find an opportunity, the answer is to nip it in the bud.
But what's even more despicable is—
Changling didn't kill Sheng Jin!
This gave others an opportunity to take advantage of the situation, allowing them to take Sheng Jin away. Failing to eliminate the root of the problem will only lead to endless trouble.
To this day, she still doesn't understand why that rebellious son, Sheng Changling, would do such a thing. What good would it do him?
After entering the palace, she didn't specifically ask, assuming that the matter had already been dealt with, so why would she bother to ask?
It's unbelievable that Rong Yun, who is so intelligent all her life, would give birth to such an incredibly foolish son!
If she survives this ordeal, she will do anything to save the son from the father, to keep a prince with her Rong family bloodline.
Judging from the current situation, Rong Yuhuan, the second young lady, is indeed quite good; the Rong family has raised her very well.
"No, Your Majesty, there is no news from Consort Jiang either, but it seems that she is certain that the Emperor will not win this battle, and she even advised me to escape."
Rong Yuhuan then repeated the entire conversation verbatim, without exaggerating, because she knew that the Empress Dowager in front of her was not someone who could be easily fooled.
All she needed to do was lay out Jiang Wuyou's schemes and let the exceptionally intelligent Empress Dowager know them, and that would be enough.
As for Jiang Wuyou's final fate, she thought it couldn't be good.
After Rong Yuhuan finished speaking, she secretly glanced at Empress Dowager Rong's face, but could not see any change in her expression, so her heart sank.
"Escape? Where to escape to? All the land under heaven belongs to the emperor. If even the palace can't protect you, humph, do you think anywhere else can?"
The Empress Dowager hadn't expected Rong Yuhuan to have the audacity to use her. She just thought that the Jiang aunt and niece were too ambitious, daring to openly scheme against her niece.
Regardless of victory or defeat, these concubines in the harem could only stay by the emperor's side; otherwise, their fate would only be more tragic.
Anyone who dares to scheme against the Rong family will have to pay the price!
"Alright, I understand the matter. You can go back now. I will give you an explanation."
Rong Yuhuan got the answer she wanted, nodded obediently, and was extremely satisfied.
However, there is one more thing she needs to put on her agenda.
That is—competing for favor!
"Your Majesty, I thank you. However, there is one more thing I wish to ask about His Majesty's condition."
