Pei Mansion.
Pei Yuqing, who was handsome and somewhat feminine, sat in front of the desk in the study, listening to the spy's report with a secretive look on his face, his narrow and sinister eyes lowered and half-closed.
The flickering candlelight cast a shadow on his face, which was softer than a woman's. His deep and three-dimensional features looked even more handsome.
The left hand rotates the jade ring on the index finger of the right hand.
There was no talking for a moment.
After a long time, he just frowned slightly, with a murderous look of horror.
"Are you sure she didn't find out?"
How could that woman who spoke so wantonly be so helpless? Her shameless and wanton behavior in broad daylight this morning did not seem like she was forced.
Could it be that the General's Mansion has such a big appetite that it not only targets Xiao Luochen, but also has its sights set on him, a eunuch?
Ming An, who was pouring tea, looked up in surprise, but did not say anything. He just poured the tea quietly.
After hearing this, the spy in black suddenly knelt down with his head down, and some cold sweat appeared on his back.
"Master, please understand. I will teach you all my secret methods. I dare not hinder you."
Obviously, he was very sure that he had not been discovered by Sheng Wu.
Hearing this, Pei Yuqing half closed his cold and sharp eyes, took a deep breath, and finally waved his hand and said in a deep voice.
"Continue monitoring."
The spy nodded, "Yes!"
After he left, Pei Yuqing's eyes were gloomy and his expression was inexplicable. His fair and feminine face was cold and sinister, and the aura around him was extremely low.
Seeing that he didn't touch the tea, Ming'an put down the teapot, his sharp eyes cold.
"Master, if the Empress Dowager really seduces the Emperor tonight, regardless of whether she succeeds or not, once the incident is exposed and known to everyone, both the General's Mansion and the Emperor will be affected, which will be beneficial to our overall situation! Public opinion is the best weapon!"
Pei Yuqing didn't say anything, but continued to fiddle with the jade ring on his right hand with his left hand. Ming An knew that this was an obvious sign that the master was in a very bad mood, so he stood there silently and didn't say anything else.
"How's the matter at the General's Mansion that I asked you to investigate going?" Suddenly, Pei Yuqing raised his eyes coldly and glanced at Ming An.
Ming An nodded and said, "The General's Mansion has indeed been restless recently. Sheng Jiangqi is not only close to the Ministry of Chancellery, but also has many spies in the palace. However, the Emperor has turned a blind eye and acquiesced."
Hearing this, Pei Yuqing's evil lips curled up slightly, and his eyes were tinged with a hint of dark sarcasm.
"Xiao Luochen just ascended the throne, so it's naturally not good for him to break off relations with the General's Mansion."
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have allowed Sheng Wu to be so arrogant and domineering in the Imperial Garden this morning.
"Then master, should we arrange people to catch the adulterer?" Ming An pursed his lips and frowned, his eyes full of cruelty.
Pei Yuqing said nothing, but just loosened his left hand that was turning the jade ring and raised his eyes slightly.
The sharp eagle eyes stared at the swaying candlelight in front of him, and a hint of sinister and cold calculation flashed across his eyes.
"I will go there myself!"
He was worried. If this was a trap set by Xiao Luochen, he could go there himself to test it out.
After he finished speaking, Pei Yuqing picked up a sword beside him and stood up.
"You and I can go. Our people will remain in the dark. If it's true, you can secretly lead Xiao Luochen's two concubines there. Even if there are any rumors, they will spread through their mouths."
Or, even if it wasn't true, he would make it true!
Those two imperial concubines were Xiao Luochen's concubines when he was still the crown prince. He vaguely remembered that these two were very hostile to Sheng Wu, who was almost going to marry Xiao Luochen at that time.
Later, Sheng Wu became the empress dowager, and the two of them became much quieter. If they knew that Sheng Wu seduced Xiao Luochen late at night, I'm afraid it would cause an uproar in the city.
As the confidant who conveyed most of the information, Ming'an naturally knew about these things.
As soon as Pei Yuqing said this, he immediately understood his plan and his eyes lit up slightly.
"Yes, Master!"
In this way, the families behind the two imperial concubines and the emperor and the general's mansion will fight against each other, and many hidden enemies can be eliminated.
Pei Yuqing walked to the door, his eyes dimmed slightly, and gave another order.
"Don't make us look too clean." The cleaner we are, the greater the suspicion.
"yes."
――――――
Near the entrance of the imperial study.
The sedan chair stopped and Suyi quickly reached out her hand.
"My Lady, we're here."
When the sedan chair came down, all the eunuchs bowed their heads and knelt down.
The palace maids carrying food boxes looked straight ahead at both sides.
A slender, white, and crimson hand stretched out from the curtain and gracefully rested on the back of Suyi's hand.
A dignified and slender figure slowly walked out of the sedan chair.
"Send someone to report first."
The clear voice is a bit lazy, gentle and moving.
Now that it's autumn, it's a bit chilly late at night.
"Yes!" A young eunuch received the order and immediately ran ahead.
In the imperial study.
Xiao Luochen was wearing a royal blue brocade robe with dark purple cloud patterns and floral patterns. The collar and cuffs of the robe were embellished with five-clawed golden dragon patterns. He wore a jade crown and had a handsome and majestic face. He was sitting in front of a desk with flickering candlelight.
Correcting memorials.
I don't know what he saw, but his brows were furrowed, his eyes were unwavering, and he clenched the memorial in his hand with his fingertips.
"His Majesty."
The chief steward walked in quietly and stopped beside the bead curtain, exactly halfway between the door and the desk.
Xiao Luochen's eyes were cold, and he continued to look at the memorial in his hand without turning his head. He picked up the pen, dyed it with cinnabar, and wrote it down without mercy, in a deep voice.
"What is it?"
The chief steward, whose temples were already gray, closed his eyes and made up his mind.
"The Queen Mother, here she comes again!"
