"I know you are worried about Zi Su." Chen Fu said, "But if I handle this matter carelessly, I am afraid it will backfire."
I'm afraid Your Majesty doesn't know about this matter of Concubine Shu.
Otherwise, His Majesty would not have deliberately asked her to deal with Fang Jinlan.
When the chief steward of the Ministry of Internal Affairs came, Shen Fu figured out the meaning behind His Majesty.
It would be more accurate to say that His Majesty wanted her to take revenge personally. Rather, this was a test given to her by His Majesty.
However, I'm afraid that His Majesty was also kept in the dark about Concubine Shu's affair.
"I have to think of a way." Shen Fuzi tapped her fingers gently and looked at Xiao Guizi.
"We have to expose it, but we also have to prevent this incident from being linked to us."
"I want to think of a foolproof plan!"
*********
Yikun Palace
Concubine Shu was frightened by the civet cat, and yesterday the servants in the Yikun Palace were all over the yard looking for the cat.
Only after making sure that these beasts died before her eyes did Shu Guipin feel completely relieved.
After making sure that no one knew about what happened yesterday, Concubine Shu finally had a good night's sleep.
The next morning, before there was any movement, someone from Hehuan Palace arrived.
"Empress Zhao said that she would let you swallow the second young lady out of her body today."
The servants who delivered the message trembled and couldn't help shaking.
Shu Guipin Ruo had a bad temper and would beat or kill people at any time.
I searched the entire Yikun Palace yesterday and found all the cats in the palace.
He then ordered that all the wild cats be dealt with.
Thinking of the wild cats that were strangled to death last night, the palace maids didn't even dare to raise their heads.
"Your Majesty, Empress Zhao and her people are already waiting."
"Didn't you say it was the twilight hour?" Concubine Shu couldn't help but sneer, "It's not even the twilight hour yet, why are you in such a hurry?"
Even though she already knew in her heart that she was powerless to save Fang Jinlan, Shu Guipin couldn't help feeling uncomfortable when she saw Chen Fu urging her like that.
"I don't know. The servants in Hehuan Palace said that it was Concubine Zhao who gave the order."
"Forget it. This girl made a mistake herself, and there is nothing I can do to save her." Shu Guipin lowered her head and took a sip of the bird's nest.
Although she had fallen out of favor, she was still included in the monthly allowance of the harem.
She eats nourishing foods such as bird's nest and snow clam every day, and her appearance is now a world apart from when she first fell out of favor.
"With my status, it is a foolish dream for me to save Fang Jinlan."
Shu Guipin had thought it through yesterday. The price she had to pay to save Fang Jinlan was too high.
There's even a chance that she won't be saved.
If Fang Jinlan disappears, she can be saved and... Fang Jinlan's death will not be unjust.
"Since Concubine Zhao is so unreasonable, you should take the man to the Second Young Lady's courtyard."
Your Majesty, are you not thinking of any way to help the Second Young Lady?
The palace maid raised her head and looked at Concubine Shu in disbelief.
After seeing the look in Shu Guipin's eyes, he lowered his head.
Fang Jinlan was pulled out without any suspense.
The two maids sent by Shen Fu were extremely strong.
After Fang Jinlan entered the yard, without waiting for the servants around them to take action, two maids came one on each side and led her out of the house.
"Let me go. Let me go."
Fang Jinlan had nowhere to hide and was carried away by two maids.
But she obviously knew what was waiting for her next, and she struggled and jumped: "Let me go, I don't want it, let me go."
The two maids were very strong. One of them held down one of her arms, and no matter how Fang Jinlan struggled, they remained indifferent.
"You two slave dogs, let me go." Seeing that they were about to be dragged out of the yard, Fang Jinlan desperately called out: "You two slave dogs, do you know who I am?"
"If my sister knew you treated me like this, she would definitely skin you alive!"
Fang Jinlan was yelling like crazy, but the two maids holding her up smiled wryly: "Second Miss, stop struggling. Just come with us."
"You've been shouting all the way, but has anyone come out?"
Only then did Fang Jinlan stop.
She turned her head and looked behind her, and it was just as the two maids said.
She shouted all the way, but the Yikun Palace was quiet and there was no one.
"Shu Guipin has given up on you."
Two maids held Fang Jinlan's shoulders and said, "Second Miss, please follow me."
Fang Jinlan stopped struggling and slumped down as two maids took her to the Hehuan Palace.
When Xiao Guizi came to report, Shen Fu was in the imperial kitchen.
"My lady, according to your instructions, the servants have brought Fang Jinlan back."
"Did Concubine Shu try to stop it?" Shen Fu asked, pinching a ball of dough in her hand.
Xiao Guizi bent down and knelt beside her, watching the Queen's movements. For a moment, she was a little confused about what the Queen was doing: "To answer your question, Shu Guipin did not stop it."
"She's quite sensible."
Shen Fu chuckled after hearing this, but she was not surprised at all by this result.
If Concubine Shu had come to the rescue, something would have happened yesterday.
As I said, she has a lover in her room. For fear of getting into trouble, Shu Guipin probably wanted to keep this thing away from her as far as possible.
"When disaster strikes, everyone flees. This is true not only for husband and wife, but also for sisters."
When Shen Fu said this, a hint of smile could not help but appear in her eyes. But his hands never stopped moving.
"Then Madam, where should we arrange Fang Jinlan?"
"Take her to Zi Su's room." Shen Fu didn't have time to see her now: "Send someone to guard her, let her watch Zi Su, but don't let her get close."
After receiving the instructions, Xiao Guizi turned around and was about to leave.
Just as he turned around, he couldn't help but turn his head again: "Madam, what are you doing?"
Chen Fu pinched it from beginning to end for a long time, but he couldn't figure out what his master was pinching.
"Don't you see that I'm a rabbit?" Chen Fu paused while kneading the dough.
Xiao Guizi's eyes fell on Chen Fu's hand again. After looking at it for a long time, she finally made out the shape of a rabbit.
"Yes, yes, it's a rabbit. I can see it now."
Xiao Guizi scratched his head, his eyes wandering: "But Master, why did you make this thing?"
He looked at the large plate of pastries on the plate in confusion. He had never seen his master so interested on weekdays.
"I will go to the Ganqing Palace later." Shen Fu's hands were not very dexterous, but after making a lot of them, she was able to make them in a decent manner.
"This basket of cakes will be of great use to me."
Chen Fu lowered her head as she spoke, looking at the rabbit cakes on the plate, but her eyes kept falling on the green grass under the rabbits.
I was a little hesitant about whether to take it.
Green grass on the head.
The top of His Majesty’s head is already green.
I don't know if His Majesty can accept her kindness after she reminded him this time!
