After leaving the imperial study, Lin Qingya walked lightly through the corridor of the palace. The golden sunlight shone on her body, but it could not warm the coldness in her heart. She had already outlined the details of the whole plan in her mind: using the mutual suspicion between Tai Wo and Li Chengze, as well as Zhao Sisi's ambition, to completely disintegrate the three forces.
She first found Li Rui, and in a secluded corner of the quiet Imperial Garden, the two talked in a low voice. "Brother Rui, are you ready for everything?" Lin Qingya's tone was calm, but her eyes were firm. Li Rui nodded gently, holding a letter in his hand, his fingertips slightly white. "Everything is ready, just give the order." His voice was low and powerful, and his eyes were full of support and sympathy for Lin Qingya. The surrounding peony flowers were in full bloom, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance, but this beautiful scenery could not cover up the hidden sword shadows in the two people's words.
Afterwards, Lin Qingya sent the carefully prepared forged letters to the eunuchs Li Chengqian, Li Chengze and Zhao Sisi through different channels. The contents of the letters were different, all of which were false intelligence about the other party's conspiracy to rebel, inciting their suspicion and hatred. She used dozens of inconspicuous eunuchs to secretly pass on the news to ensure that nothing could go wrong. Inside the palace, the carved beams and painted buildings were magnificent, but undercurrents were surging and crises were lurking everywhere.
A few days later, the atmosphere in the court was so heavy that it was suffocating. Li Chengqian was the first to attack, pointing at Li Chengze and accusing him of treason, with the evidence being the letter forged by Lin Qingya. Li Chengze was not to be outdone, and took out the forged evidence by Lin Qingya, accusing Li Chengqian of conspiracy. Zhao Sisi fanned the flames on the side, seemingly maintaining neutrality, but in fact secretly observing the situation, preparing to benefit from it. The three of them were talking back and forth, accusing each other, and the scene was in chaos.
Lin Qingya stood up slowly at this time, exuding an unquestionable aura. She walked to the center of the hall, swept her eyes over the crowd, and her crisp voice echoed in the hall: "Masters, there is only one truth about what happened today!" Her tone was firm, without any hesitation. She presented the evidence she had prepared in advance one by one, exposing the truth of the three people's conspiracy, and pointed out the absurdity and loopholes in their actions. The evidence was solid and could not be denied. The three people's faces changed drastically, and their original arrogance disappeared in an instant.
The whole hall was in an uproar, and the ministers were talking about it. Emperor Li Heng sat on the dragon throne with a gloomy look in his eyes. He looked at the three people in front of him and had already made a decision in his heart. In the end, Li Chengqian, Li Chengze and Zhao Sisi were stripped of their official positions and placed under house arrest. Lin Qingya successfully eliminated these three potential enemies and consolidated her position.
Lin Qingya took this opportunity to fight back against the forces that had oppressed the Lin family. She used her new power to settle accounts one by one and punished the corrupt officials who had oppressed the people. Her eyes were cold and firm.
However, in the imperial study, Li Heng sat alone on the dragon chair, repeatedly looking through the copies of the secret letters. His fingers tapped the armrests of the dragon chair, making a dull sound, and his expression was uncertain. The flickering candlelight reflected the complex light flashing in his deep eyes. He was suspicious by nature, and although Lin Qingya's performance this time was beautiful, it made him feel a little uneasy. Her ability to control the overall situation and make strategic plans made him feel a little threatened.
Li Rui walked into the imperial study quietly, "Brother, are you still resting?" He asked in a concerned tone, with a hint of inquiry in his words. Seeing the copy of the letter in Li Heng's hand, he frowned slightly. In the imperial study, the air was stagnant, with only the crackling sound of burning candles. Li Heng put the letter down and sighed deeply, "Qingya... She is getting more and more efficient. This time's plan is exquisite, but it is too cruel." His voice was low and hoarse, revealing a hint of fatigue and fear. He turned around slowly and looked at Li Rui, with a hint of complex emotions flashing in his eyes. Li Rui's eyes moved, he had expected this, but he did not answer directly, he just walked to Li Heng and gently supported his shoulders, "Royal brother, be careful in everything, the harem, the court..." Li Rui paused, his tone filled with deep worry, he was hesitant to speak.
Lin Qingya was in her bedroom, looking at the bright moonlight from the window, but her face did not show any relaxed expression. She naturally understood Li Rui's hint, and the emperor's suspicion of her had begun to grow. Qingyue waited quietly on the side, not daring to speak. Lin Qingya held a pendant in her hand, stroking it gently, her eyes deep and firm. This pendant was obtained from a secret force, and they had the power to fight against the imperial power. She whispered: "Qingyue, prepare the horse, I'm going to the Taifu Mansion." Her voice was calm, but it contained unquestionable determination. The moonlight poured down, shining on her cold face, showing her determination.
A few days later, Lin Qingya had a long talk with the Taifu in the Taifu Mansion for several hours. During the conversation, the Taifu nodded frequently and took out several important documents and handed them to Lin Qingya. The Taifu Mansion was solemn and solemn, with ancient trees everywhere. The air was filled with the fragrance of ink and the heavy feeling of history. At this moment, a secret meeting about the fate of the dynasty was taking place here. When Lin Qingya walked out of the Taifu Mansion, her steps were firm and powerful. She had found the power to fight against the imperial power, and a new game had quietly begun. Lin Qingya returned to her mansion with a gleam in her eyes. She was fully prepared to meet any challenges that might come.
Later, Lin Qingya swiftly eliminated some officials who posed a threat to the imperial power, and at the same time secretly increased her influence in the court and consolidated her power base. During this period, she used the intelligence and power in the court to skillfully guide public opinion, creating an image of a "loyal minister who protects the country" for herself, and gradually eliminated the emperor's dissatisfaction with her. The entire court was under her control. She stood at the pinnacle of power, overlooking the world, with a slight smile on her lips.
