Tang Miaoling talked a lot before she left, mainly asking about other people's well-being and trying hard to show her loyalty.
"Master, I think Miss Biao really wants to join you this time. Otherwise, if you tell Your Majesty what she said about His Majesty, she will not have a good ending..." Lian Rui said.
Ning Wanyin rubbed her brows and said, "Well... let Xiao Xiazi pick a reliable and smart one from his staff and send him to Tang Miaoling."
"Master, what are you doing...?"
"Leave a nail." Ning Wanyin's eyes were deep.
The enemy can use Tang Miaoling against her, but she can also turn the tables.
In the end, it all depends on the methods used by both sides.
She had already warned Tang Miaoling about the risks of getting too close to her.
Since Tang Miaoling is not afraid, let's do this for now.
If Tang Miaoling became her enemy in the future, then she would be her enemy. If she chose the emperor, they would just sever their ties and go their separate ways.
But if she is determined to join me, it would be nice to have someone to drink tea and talk with in the palace for the next few decades.
"Master, Nanny Ping from Linlang Palace is here." Xiao Guizi came in to report.
Ning Wanyin immediately said, "Please come in."
This Nanny Ping was the emperor's nanny when he was young. She was extraordinary and should not be neglected.
"This servant pays respects to Concubine Ning."
Nanny Ping was accompanied by two eunuchs carrying gift boxes.
After entering Lingxue Pavilion, he bowed to Ning Wanyin very politely and said respectfully:
"Thanks to Concubine Ning for discovering Concubine Fang's plot in time, we were able to save Concubine Zhuang from being framed. Concubine Zhuang is very grateful to you, and has specially ordered this servant to bring a valuable gift to express her gratitude."
Actually.
Concubine Zhuang did remember Ning Wanyin's favor in her heart.
But on the surface, she didn't want to pay any attention to Ning Wanyin at all.
So, Nanny Ping asked her to go to her house in person to give gifts and express her gratitude, but she refused to come. Finally, Nanny Ping came in person to express her gratitude and sincerity.
"Empress Zhuang is so thoughtful. I am only trying to take care of Concubine Shun. It's just my job... It's troublesome for Nanny Ping to come here in person." Ning Wanyin said with a smile.
She guessed in her heart that this could not have been arranged by Concubine Zhuang.
"Concubine Ning is too polite. You have defused a storm and your contribution is huge." Nanny Ping praised.
She knew long ago that with the emperor's temper, the concubines favored by him were definitely not ordinary people.
But after this encounter, she understood more clearly why the emperor liked her.
Everyone knew that Concubine Ning was arrogant and domineering, and that she was spoiled by her favor, but Nanny Ping felt that she was the one who knew best how to advance and retreat.
The harem needs such a capable and kind person to keep things under control.
His Majesty needs her.
The fact that Concubine Ning was needed by the emperor truly showed her astonishing means.
It seems that Concubine Ning still has a long way to go in her favor.
…
Early the next morning.
Tang Miaoling excitedly came again with boxes of gifts.
She ran so fast yesterday that she forgot to give her cousin a gift to express her gratitude.
It just so happened that His Majesty rewarded her with a set of Ru kiln porcelain, and she immediately took the opportunity to offer the gift to the Buddha.
This reward was given as a consolation for the fact that she had been wronged and imprisoned for so long.
It is a consistent rule that emperors must clearly distinguish between rewards and punishments.
I heard that the reward that Lady Ying received was the same as hers. They were both beauties, so it was normal for them to be treated the same.
As soon as Tang Miaoling arrived at the gate of Yonghe Palace, she saw a veiled concubine standing at the door, accompanied by two eunuchs carrying a large box.
Exactly the same as her.
"Who are you?" Tang Miaoling looked at her puzzledly.
Wei Yingya wore a veil to hide her swollen cheek. Seeing Tang Miaoling appear here, she thought that Tang Miaoling and Ning Wanyin really had a deep sisterly relationship.
As long as he could get close to Ning Wanyin, he would also be able to get close to Tang Miaoling.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to show her goodwill to Tang Miaoling directly…
But Tang Miaoling is currently a concubine with no power and no favor. If he approaches her rashly, the other party will definitely become suspicious, which may backfire.
On the contrary, Ning Wanyin is the most favored concubine in the harem.
There were so many people who wanted to curry favor with her, and it wasn't surprising for her to blend in among them.
What's more, Ning Wanyin had just helped her a lot, so she came to thank her sincerely.
Using this as an introduction, getting closer to Ning Wanyin and making friends with Tang Miaoling is a longer-term plan.
"How are you, Miss Tang? My name is Wei Yingya." Wei Yingya replied with a smile.
"Ah? You are..." Tang Miaoling swallowed the rest of her words.
You are the one who drowned in your previous life.
Tang Miaoling looked at Wei Yingya with a subtle look.
Maybe I saved my life in this life because I drank a few sips of water?
It's quite magical.
Wei Yingya felt uncomfortable being stared at by her, so she took the initiative to strike up a conversation, "Is Lady Tang here to pay her respects to Concubine Ning as well?"
"Hmm..." Tang Miaoling came back to her senses and looked at her with hostility, "What are you doing here? You were very rude to my cousin at the beginning!"
"That was because I was young and ignorant. After going through this disaster, I have understood a lot of things. What I did before was wrong." Wei Yingya said with a look of shame.
While the two were talking, Xiao Guizi, who had just gone in to report, came out and said:
"My master invites the two noble masters in."
…
Lingxue Pavilion, welcoming hall.
"I pay my respects to Concubine Ning. I am grateful to you for capturing Concubine Fang and helping me clear my name. I have such a great kindness that I cannot thank you enough. I have prepared a small gift, and I hope you will accept it." Wei Ying bowed gracefully and said.
Tang Miaoling on the side choked up and said, "You snatched away everything I wanted to say!"
