Upon hearing the news, Concubine Shu was stunned for a moment.
Although she was surprised, looking at Lady Wen, she didn't seem to be lying. She knew that this must be true, but she didn't know why it turned out like this.
"I understand, sister. Come to me anytime if you need anything."
"good."
After explaining everything, Lady Wen returned to her courtyard, took out a whip from under the bed, and began to whip Xi Que, saying arrogantly, "Hahaha, in three days, I will become the queen. By then, you, the Imperial Concubine Shu, will be ants under my feet. You must behave well. Maybe if I'm happy, you won't have to be a slave anymore, hahaha."
Xi Que discovered that Lady Wen was much crazier during this period than before. If she didn't beat someone up at least once a day, she would feel uncomfortable all over. The injuries on her body would always recur and never really heal.
The young eunuch was sweeping the yard, and he was so angry when he heard the noise inside.
Shu Guifei also went to the Queen's palace immediately. The Queen did not tell her the truth of the matter, but said to her: "The palace has been uneasy these days. You just need to do what you should do."
Seeing that the queen was unwilling to say, Shu Guifei stopped asking. Since the queen asked her to do what she should do, she would do it.
Anyway, you will know whether it is a mule or a horse immediately.
The people that the Queen had placed in various places some time ago also began to take action.
After Lady Wen was tired of whipping, she ordered Xi Que to treat the wound quickly and not let others find out. She also ordered Xi Que to sprinkle the powder on the food of the guards and palace maids on the day of the banquet.
The magpie took the powder and replied, "I understand."
"You'd better not have any other little thoughts. Do you know why the senior maidservant beside Concubine Shu died? It was because she did something unnecessary without authorization. If you are like her, your end will definitely be worse than hers."
Xi Que's face turned pale, "I understand."
After returning to her room, Xi Que took out the medicine given to her by Concubine Shu and applied it on the wound. The young eunuch saw that there was no one around, so he sneaked in.
"Sister, how are you? Is it painful?"
"It's okay, sister. This time the opportunity has come. We must find a way to stop them. Sister is not afraid of death, but she is worried about you."
The young eunuch said with a firm look in his eyes, "I'm not afraid. As long as I can get revenge, death doesn't matter."
The two people hugged each other, and in this cold harem, they depended on each other.
After Li Jingchen finished investigating Concubine Wen's life experience, the emperor gave him another task, which was to investigate how many people were hiding in the southwest corner outside the city.
After checking the vehicles leaving the city for a period of time, they found that every morning four people would pull two carts and head towards the southwest corner, and the carts were full of grain. The most important thing was that they had seen leaf patterns on the carts.
This was very suspicious. After sending people to follow them, they determined that they went to a village in the southwest corner and left half an hour after entering the village.
Li Jingchen decided to follow them tomorrow morning and take a look. When Jiang Tuantuan found out, he wanted to go with him, but was rejected.
"Hey, if you take me with you, I can ask my friends in another world to help monitor them, so I can know what they are doing."
"Your friend is so amazing."
"Yes, that's right, so you take me with you."
"Okay then, but if something unexpected happens, just run away and don't worry about me, okay?"
"good."
In fact, Jiang Tuantuan kept clamoring to go because she was afraid that Li Jingchen would get into an accident alone. After all, she had her own space, and there was always a way to deal with an accident, but it would be difficult for Li Jingchen to do it alone.
She doesn't want to become a widow so early.
In the afternoon, someone suddenly knocked on the door. It was a letter deliveryman. After opening the letter, I found that it was from Mingman. She said that she was about to come of age and was really nervous, but her father would not let her leave the palace, so she hoped that Jiang Tuantuan could come to the palace tomorrow to talk to her.
Jiang Tuantuan immediately agreed and told the messenger, "Tell Mingman that I will be there as promised tomorrow afternoon."
There are two days left until Princess Mingman’s birthday.
Jiang Tuantuan and Li Jingchen got up early, packed up, and started waiting at the palace gate.
Until the two carriages arrived, they followed closely behind.
Jiang Tuantuan connected to the elf and said to him, "Help me monitor the people in front. I want to know what they said and did."
"No problem." As the number of included species increased, the range that the elf could monitor became larger, now expanded to three thousand meters, and the points required for monitoring were also increasing.
The elf deducted a large sum of money without hesitation.
After following them all the way to the hillside, the four men pulled the cart into the village. For safety reasons, the two of them stopped following them.
Instead, he climbed to a high place surrounded by trees and grass and began to wait for the next move of those people.
After those people arrived at the village, they handed the food on the cart to a villager.
After receiving the food, the villagers immediately distributed it to the remaining families. This village is very small, with only fifteen families. The most important thing is that there are no elderly people or children at all. This makes people very suspicious. What kind of village has no children and elderly people!
After distributing the food, the four men pushed the empty cart away.
The remaining people in the village took the food and started cooking. There was a big pot in the yard of each house. It didn't look like it was used by a family of just a few people, but rather like it was used to cook for many people. The most important thing was that every family here had a cart.
It seems that there is something wrong with this village.
After more than an hour, every household had prepared the meal, put the rice into a large wooden barrel, and then lifted it onto a cart, pulling it one by one towards the southwest outside the village.
After walking for half a minute, they arrived at a mountain valley surrounded by tall trees and weeds. The villagers put down their carts, lifted the wooden barrels in groups of two, and walked inside.
If it weren't for the villagers walking in, most people would never have discovered that there was a hidden world inside.
After the villagers walked around in circles for another half a minute, many simple and low thatched houses suddenly appeared in front of them. Many people came out of the thatched houses and began to distribute the food brought by the villagers.
Jiang Tuantuan watched this scene through space and opened her eyes wide in surprise. Li Jingchen looked at Jiang Tuantuan's expression and wanted to know what she had seen very anxiously.
But Jiang Tuantuan just told him to be quiet and wait a little longer because the main event was about to begin.
After a rough count, I found that there were nearly two thousand people inside, which is not a small number.
They also saw a large number of weapons piled up next to the thatched hut. These were the weapons they had seen when they ran to the Wang family's well a few days ago.
