Lian Rui obeyed the order, "This servant will follow the master's instructions."
At the same time, in Ganxin Palace...
Concubine Wen has already reported the matter of the Imperial Garden to the Emperor.
Ever since she came back from Tingyu Pavilion last time, she had sent people to secretly keep an eye on Qionghua Garden.
She had noticed that Lady Xue's maid Zhusha was acting suspiciously!
There was a wall of flowers between me and Tang Miaoling, so I overheard everything.
Seeing that Tang Miaoling went to Lingxue Pavilion, she was afraid that Ning Wanyin would snatch the credit, so she went to Ganxin Palace to report first.
The emperor on the dragon throne looked gloomy, "You said Concubine Xue was trying to get information from the emperor?"

Jin Zhongdao said, "Your Majesty's order to arrest the palace servant who spread the message privately."
"Master, please save me, I am innocent!" Zhusha shouted hurriedly.
Lady Xue smiled faintly, "I believe my maid would not do such a thing. There must be some misunderstanding. Who said that my maid spread the message privately? What evidence do you have?"
"You've been caught red-handed, and you still want to make excuses!" Lady Wen walked over from the bamboo forest on the other side.
Today a trap was set up to catch a man red-handed, so she naturally would not miss it and would come to watch this good show in person.
"Lady Wen?" When Lady Xue saw her, there was a hint of doubt between her brows.
