"Thank you, Consort Jing. I truly appreciate this gift."
"If you like it, then it's fine. If you like this Guanyin statue, then it's not a free gift."
Next, Jia Yue started chatting with Consort Xi about the children. Midway through, she drank too much water and relieved herself at Consort Xi's place.
After Jia Yue left, Consort Xi immediately said, "Go and examine that jade Guanyin statue."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Soon, the nanny who had been inspecting the statue came back to report: "Your Highness, I can't tell what kind of jade that white jade Guanyin is, but there's no problem."
Her statement that "there's no problem" means that she wasn't drugged and can be worshipped.
Consort Xi breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that there are no problems. Let's put it on display!"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Meanwhile, Jia Yue went to see Consort Yu and Consort Mao.
After returning and having lunch, Jia Yue went to the study.
"I want to practice my calligraphy. I don't need any servants. I can do it all by myself."
Jia Yue quite enjoys practicing calligraphy alone, so her instruction wasn't abrupt.
Inside the study, he closed the door, looked at the two screens used to block the view, and confidently took out some very modern equipment from the space, and then began to operate it.
Soon after she left, she heard that Consort Xi had ordered people to examine the jade Guanyin.
Jia Yue smiled with satisfaction.
The jade Guanyin was naturally not a harmful thing. When Jia Yue saw the jade Guanyin sent by the Imperial Household Department, she thought of the "jade" Guanyin in her space.
The two jade Guanyin statues looked so alike that Jia Yue suddenly had an idea.
For her, changing something else, even if it's something from the same box, isn't difficult.
The jade Guanyin statue of Consort Xi once fooled many people. Its delicate and warm texture, seemingly good oil content, rare carving, and genuine small-leaf sandalwood base made it a fake.
Not only is it fake, but the bottom of the rosewood has a very hidden Luban lock, which can be used to hide things.
Jia Yue didn't hide anything else, except a recording device.
She doesn't have many connections, but what can she do? Her space is equipped with modern technology!
Back then, she had made ample preparations for her time travel, even considering the apocalypse and high-tech products; she certainly didn't lack space.
She hadn't thought about doing this before.
Because she felt it was too early to get into character, as Hongzhao was still young, but Consort Xi seemed unwilling to let her off the hook!
As for whether the white jade Guanyin will be found to have problems?
She was naturally not afraid. The items were sent to Consort Xi before they were even put into storage. Ordinary people wouldn't break Buddha or Guanyin statues, and the Luban lock was perfectly sealed.
Even if it were discovered, Consort Xi wouldn't say anything. How could she prove that it was she who sent it?
After all, Consort Xi had more time to find a similar white jade Guanyin, didn't she?
Of course, Jia Yue gave Consort Xi more than just a white jade Guanyin statue.
In the afternoon, Jia Yue reported her menstrual period. Yin Zhen did not see Jia Yue's green plaque, so he did not go to anyone else's place and rested alone.
In the middle of the night, Jia Yue opened her eyes, took out a remote control device from her spatial storage, and then, above Consort Xi's bedroom, a small bionic spider began to move in the darkness, quickly reaching Consort Xi's inner chamber.
Consort Xi didn't read much; her study was just for show.
She had inquired and learned that Consort Xi liked to call her confidantes to her inner chamber to talk.
Bionic spiders are different from recording devices. Bionic spiders have the function of recording and filming, but they cannot transmit in real time without a signal. To watch the video, you need to remove the memory card.
The reason for the recording equipment in the Buddhist hall was that some people liked to repent in the Buddhist hall, but she felt that Consort Xi did not have this hobby.
During the day, the bionic spider is not very easy to move.
She was very generous to Consort Xi, having prepared for both possibilities.
Meanwhile, several hidden cameras were installed in concealed locations in her residence.
Previously, she really didn't plan to use these technological products much, since she didn't have that many. However, she discovered that reality was more dangerous than she had imagined, and she still had to use them.
At the very least, we need to get rid of Consort Xi as soon as possible. Keeping her around is disgusting.
Over the next few days, Jia Yue's most frequent activity was to stay in the study and practice calligraphy. Of course, most of the time was spent supervising Consort Xi.
From the conversation between Consort Xi and her maid, Jia Yue confirmed that it was Consort Xi who attacked Hong Zhao, which was not surprising.
At the same time, she also discovered that the connection between Consort Yu and Consort Xi was indeed very close.
She heard Consort Yu questioning Consort Xi.
"What are Consort Jing's people investigating lately? Did you do something to Consort Jing?"
Consort Yu was somewhat familiar with Consort Xi's style of doing things. The two were allies, and the initiative was always in Consort Xi's hands. Not to mention sharing connections, Consort Xi could indeed use some of Consort Yu's people to do things.
"It didn't work out, but we've cleaned up the mess. Don't worry, it won't affect you."
Consort Xi did not want to break ties with Consort Yu. At least until she achieved her ultimate goal, she would not break ties. Consort Yu knew quite a lot!
Consort Yu said angrily, "Do you know that the Emperor is now the Emperor, not the Prince he once was? Can you not be so presumptuous? Consort Jing was able to give birth to the Sixth Prince under your pressure, which means that she is not simple."
There was something Consort Yu didn't say directly, but she really wanted to shout it out to her: Don't think you're the only smart person in the harem! You should at least have some respect for others!
Consort Xi said with annoyance, "I already know, and I will not act rashly again in the future. Consort Jing... is indeed an enemy worth being wary of."
Consort Yu sighed, "Fine, I've said everything I can. I hope there won't be a next time."
