"My Lady, please let me handle this. You are weak, don't catch a cold."
"It's okay. Since I've decided to go out, I have to plan carefully. This is my only chance to get out of the house arrest, so I have to be extremely careful."
"Your Highness, I am sorry for the injustice. If I were not so useless, you would not be confined to Chengqian Palace."
Concubine Tong did not comfort her. It was indeed their fault. If they had been more careful, how could Mu Sili have noticed it?
If they hadn't let the truth get out of her, she wouldn't be in this situation.
"My Lady, I have done as you instructed. Is there anything I have missed?"
Concubine Tong followed her out to check it out. It was a dark and windy night for murder. She didn't believe that Kangxi would remain indifferent to her actions.
As long as Kangxi still has some feelings for her, she will definitely succeed in leaving Chengqian Palace.
"The hour of the Ox is when the imperial palace's defenses are relaxed. That's the most opportune time to take action. Listen carefully, whether I can lift the house arrest depends on you."
"Don't worry, my lady, I will never let you down."
Since she intended to set fire to the palace, she naturally had to make all the necessary preparations. The first and most important thing was her own life. She would not joke about her own life.
In Yiku Palace, when Mu Sili learned that Concubine Tong was going to set fire to save herself, she was completely dumbfounded.
This person really did everything she could to get Kangxi to lift her house arrest. Wasn't she afraid that Chengqian Palace would suddenly collapse and kill her?
"Your Majesty, this news came from someone I had previously planted in Chengqian Palace. Do you want to tell the Emperor?"
"Ziyuan, the palace is lonely. It's time to find something for the emperor to do, otherwise I will be very bored."
Zi Yuan was speechless. The Queen was bored? How could she not see that?
But what the Empress said was that the deep palace is indeed lonely, and if there is no fun to watch, it is easy to go crazy.
Of course, this situation would not occur in their Yiku Palace. Only those concubines who were not favored would have such feelings. They were not blessed enough to enjoy it.
"If we don't tell the emperor, will we inform Eunuch Liang? I'm worried that if this happens suddenly and Eunuch Liang is unprepared, the emperor will hold him accountable."
Mu Sili looked at Zi Yuan in confusion. How come she didn’t know that she and Liang Jiugong had such a good relationship?
"Ziyuan, don't tell me that you and Liang Jiugong are in love. You are my senior maid, and I can't bear to send you to be someone else's concubine."
Zi Yuan didn't know what to say for a moment when she heard this. She and Liang Jiugong really didn't have that kind of relationship.
Isn't it because the Empress has a good relationship with him that she is so kind? How come when it comes to the Empress, it becomes like they are attracted to each other?
But Liang Jiugong is indeed a good person. If being with him can help the Empress, she doesn't mind becoming his wife.
Just like what the Empress said, it’s lonely in the deep palace, and it’s nice to have someone who understands you by your side.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Mu Sili became completely Spartan. That dog slave Liang Jiugong actually coveted her palace maid. Although it seemed that Zi Yuan liked her herself, she didn't want her!
After so many lifetimes, I have never allowed my people to be partners with others. Could it be that I am going to make an exception now?
Her conflicted look made Zi Yuan feel both distressed and amused. She understood that the Queen was worried about her, but she also felt sorry for the Queen's difficult life, so she didn't feel wronged.
Besides, Liang Jiugong would not let her suffer any injustice. In the end, she was the winner. After all, there were so many people who were thinking about Liang Jiugong. If she didn't seize the opportunity, she would have no chance anymore.
"Your Highness, you don't know how popular Eunuch Liang is with the palace maids. Please grant this servant's wish."
Now that things have come to this, what else can Mu Sili do? She can only rush to the Palace of Heavenly Purity in anger.
When she saw Liang Jiugong outside the Qianqing Palace, she glared at him, leaving him confused.
Zi Yuan looked at Liang Jiugong embarrassedly, and after thinking about it, she decided to tell him the truth.
"Eunuch Liang, the Empress thought that I was attracted to you, so she came to trouble the Emperor. Are you willing to marry me, and support each other in this palace and spend the rest of your lives together?"
Liang Jiugong said he was a little confused. He was probably still asleep, otherwise why would he hear such outrageous words out of the blue?
Zi Yuan was the most respected maidservant around Mu Sili, but she actually took the initiative to propose to be his wife, which he did not understand.
Although he had some feelings for her, he really didn't have such an idea because he knew that Mu Sili would not agree. But what should he do in this situation?
"Why, does Eunuch Liang look down on me? If so, I will say nothing."
Zi Yuan was also angry. She had taken the initiative, but he was indifferent. It was so infuriating.
Liang Jiugong saw that she was angry and quickly came over to comfort her. Wasn't he just unbelievable? It's really not his fault.
"If this is your own idea, then our family is definitely willing to agree, but it seems that the queen is unwilling. Are you sure the queen will agree?"
"Of course, Your Majesty loves me the most and will definitely not let me down."
In that case, it would be disrespectful for him to refuse.
"Ziyuan, if you are sincere, then our family will never let you down in this life."
Zi Yuan's face turned red unconsciously. As long as Mu Sili passed the test, her and Liang Jiugong's future would be secure.
"It's a deal."
Inside the Palace of Heavenly Purity, Kangxi looked at the furious Mu Sili in confusion. He was fine when he left this morning. Who had offended her? Why did she look like she wanted to strangle him to death?
"What's wrong with you? Who made you angry? Tell me and I'll vent my anger for you."
"Your Majesty, I never thought that someone close to you would be thinking about my maidservant!"
Kangxi was confused. What did it mean that the people around him were thinking about Ziyuan? How come he didn't know about this?
No, Liang Jiugong?
It’s true that Liang Jiugong and Zi Yuan were getting closer. Could it be that they really had something going on?
Liang Jiugong is his personal eunuch. If he and Ziyuan really fall in love with each other, he doesn't mind helping them.
But seeing that she seems unwilling to marry Ziyuan to Liang Jiugong, it seems that it's time for him, the master, to help him.
"Are you talking about Liang Jiugong? That shouldn't be the case. How come I didn't know that he has someone he likes?"
"You don't know? How is that possible? Liang Jiugong told you everything, how could you not know?"
Mu Sili clearly didn't believe what he said, but what he said was true, he really didn't know about this matter.
Anyway, Liang Jiugong is his servant, and he serves him attentively. If he has someone he likes, he will naturally help him. And seeing that Ziyuan is willing, she will help him no matter what he says.
"I really don't know. If you don't believe me, ask them to come in and talk to me and see if I'm lying to you."
