Before she entered the palace, she was Shen Fu.
Even though she was fostered in the Gu family since she was young, she grew up thanks to the love of her grandparents, uncle and cousin.
After entering the palace, she relied on the emperor again.
Chen Fu relied on her good looks, some intelligence, and the favor of His Majesty to reach her goal step by step.
As a result, she gave birth to Tuaner.
Logically speaking, she should be raised and brought up.
Her future glory and honor will depend on Tuan'er to fight for her.
But when Shen Fu heard Xiao Guizi's words, she felt dazed.
"Prince Yu is still young, how can the Empress Dowager rely on him?"
Chen Fu was sitting on the sedan chair. Xiao Guizi did not notice Chen Fu's expression. She just lowered her head and continued to comfort her: "Your Highness, you are thinking too much."
"Prince Li is still young now, but that doesn't mean he will be young in the future. If there is only Prince Li in the palace, when he grows up, His Majesty will not give this most honorable throne to him, right?"
Xiao Guizi lowered her head and pointed upwards, and then said, "When the prince becomes a successful prince, you can rest assured, madam."
look.
Even a little eunuch knew it.
It seems that a woman's life is dependent on others from the moment she is born.
"I don't know when I can rely on myself." Shen Fu couldn't help but mutter.
Xiao Guizi didn't hear clearly, so she looked up and asked, "What did the queen just say?"
"Nothing." Shen Fu laughed at herself.
She couldn't even get her grandparents to come to Kyoto to see her, so how could she rely on herself?
A few days ago, Chen Changshan wanted to divorce his wife, but His Majesty held her back and refused to let her go.
The rumor had already spread throughout the court, but since His Majesty did not mention it, Chen Fu was not in a position to speak up.
No matter how great the power or how much glory she has, Shen Fu knows that all of this is given by others.
Not only can he give to himself, but he may also give to others one day in the future.
"Yugong is saying that Tuan'er is still young and still needs me as a mother to take care of him until he grows up."
Seeing the puzzled look in Xiao Guizi's eyes, Chen Fu explained one more sentence: "Look, when the prince went there on the day of the prince's death, did His Majesty ask the prince to bring Tuan'er back?"
It's better to leave it with His Majesty than with her.
Chen Fu didn't care how many princes there were in the palace, there was only Tuan'er from beginning to end.
But the only one who was kept by His Majesty's side was Tuan'er.
Unlike mother and son, who are born with a connection, many father-son relationships are cultivated since childhood.
Shen Fu felt relieved after leaving Tuan'er with His Majesty.
"The palace is busy right now." Chen Fu raised her hand and pinched her brows a few times: "Let's deal with Fang Jinlan first."
Thinking of the mistakes Fang Jinlan had made, Xiao Guizi immediately shut up.
Sister Zisu hasn't woken up yet.
If the culprit is in Hehuan Palace, he will make Fang Jinlan pay the price.
Fang Jinlan was pressed down in front of Zi Su's bed and knelt there for a whole day.
The two maids who looked after her had done a lot of good things for Zi Su, and they tortured her in a very cruel way.
Not only was she forced to kneel in front of Zisu's bed, she was also required to raise her head and not take her eyes away from Zisu's bed.
Make her kneel here and confess to Zi Su.
Fang Jinlan was forced to kneel on the ground, her knees were so tight that she dared not even move her head the slightest bit.
She knelt like this without eating or drinking for six hours. When she was waiting for Chen Fu to be free to look after her, Fang Jinlan had been dragged over in a cold sweat after being tortured.
Seeing the person lying limp on the ground, Shen Fu felt a little surprised.
She didn't order her servants to punish her.
"Since you are kneeling here, you must know why the Queen Mother asked you to come here?"
Chen Fu sat at the top, her cold eyes cast down upon those below.
Fang Jinlan had been tortured all day long, and looking at the expression of Concubine Zhao, she felt a sense of oppression.
Her throat was tight, but she refused to admit defeat.
"What could I have done wrong? Her Majesty Zhao Fei relies on her high status and will certainly humiliate me in any way she wants."
"You still dare to be stubborn even when you are about to die."
Chen Fu sneered at Fang Jinlan and said, "If the palace was not absolutely sure, why would it bring you from Yikun Palace?"
Does Concubine Zhao have evidence?
No...impossible.
There was no way she could have lost anything except the pearl earring.
Fang Jinlan's heart skipped a beat for a moment, and then she denied it.
Concubine Zhao was just trying to scare herself.
It was impossible for her to have evidence to prove that she was the one who did it. As long as she denied it even if she was beaten to death, no one could do anything to her even if she was Concubine Zhao.
"Empress Zhao is the only one favored by you. Even His Majesty only dares to come to you. You are so powerful that you can say whatever you want."
"You can punish whoever you want to punish."
Fang Jinlan still refuses to change her stubborn ways.
Chen Fu was tired, so she smiled: "You think if you don't admit it, the palace can't do anything to you, right?"
This is what Fang Jinlan thought.
"Even if the harem belongs to Her Majesty, Her Majesty must have evidence to convict a person." Fang Jinlan looked at Chen Fu, "Just a pearl earring cannot convict a servant of a crime."
Look at her confident look.
Chen Fu sneered and walked down from the top. The armored fingers exerted force and pinched Fang Jinlan's chin with the fingertips.
With a slight flick of her wrist, Fang Jinlan was forced to look up.
"Do you think that the palace needs so many reasons to convict you of a crime?"
Shen Fu had been going smoothly for too long, and her eyes were gentle, making her seem very easy to talk to.
He was so angry and intimidating at this moment that Fang Jinlan was frightened and trembled.
"Your family is not high-class. Even though your sister Shu Guipin was a concubine in the harem, she has long fallen out of favor." Chen Fu's armored fingers slid back and forth on Fang Jinlan's beautiful face.
"The palace wants your life, and someone will do it with just a glance. There are too many inexplicable deaths in this palace. Even a lotus pond can drown many innocent souls."
The armor was sharp and Fang Jinlan dared not move when she was held by her.
She was afraid that the armor would scratch her cheek and cut it.
She didn't even dare to breathe too loudly: "Your Majesty holds the power of the harem, so you will not allow a humble servant's life to threaten your power!"
Fang Jinlan swallowed her saliva and said, "Even if my life is worthless, there are people watching in Yikun Palace. If I die inexplicably at the hands of this person, my elder sister will definitely come to avenge me."
"Elder sister..." Chen Fu simply found it funny when she heard the words coming out of Fang Jinlan's mouth.
According to what she had found out, this person had entered the palace with no good intentions.
She also came here for wealth and glory.
Ruo always calls me "elder sister".
"You are looking forward to your elder sister coming to save you." Chen Fu put down her hand that was on Fang Jinlan's chin.
"Of course I'm hoping that my elder sister will save my life, but am I also hoping that you will let me go?" Fang Jinlan touched her painful face.
"Maybe the Queen Mother will really let you go." Chen Fu's eyes fell on her face, hinting at something.
Fang Jinlan stopped rubbing her chin and raised her head.
"You just need to do one thing for the empress." Chen Fu took the pearl earrings in her hand and poked them hard at Fang Jinlan's earlobe.
The silver needle broke through her skin and flesh, and Fang Jinlan gasped in pain.
Chen Fu wiped her hands with the bloody handkerchief and let her go: "One life for another, after the event, some will die and some will live."
