"An army of so many men."
"Where did Li Wenfeng get the money and materials to support so many people?" King Jiang asked.
What King Jiang thought was the same as what Jiang Qiulu thought.
"I don't know, so I think so."
"As long as we find out the source of his accounts, we will definitely gain something."
King Jiang thought of Jiang Qiulu's intention.
"Your Majesty, do you think that Li Wenfeng obtained the money through abnormal channels?" King Jiang asked.
"That's right."
"I hope I'm wrong."
"The truth has not been found out yet, everything is just speculation." Jiang Qiulu said.
"I know what to do."
"Your Majesty, leave this matter to me, I will investigate it myself."
King Jiang took over everything and prepared to handle the matter personally.
If the source of King Yong's money is found, there are clues from the Turkic Kingdom.
That can directly prove that King Yong colluded with the Turkic state.
When the time comes to punish King Yong on the spot for treason, his party members and troops will not dare to say anything.
"Uncle Lao is responsible for everything."
"If you need anything, just let me know." Jiang Qiulu said.
…
With this direction, the relationship between Prince Jiang's Mansion and Zhenfu Division became closer.
However, one wave comes after another.
In the harem, there is also a secret fight.
That evening, Concubine De came to Yaohua Palace.
He didn't bring anyone with him, only his personal maid Bingyue.
"Empress, Imperial Concubine De is waiting outside the gate of Yaohua Palace to see you."
Xiaorou came to Concubine Rong's room and reported to Concubine Rong.
"Concubine De? What is she here for?" Concubine Rong was confused.
"That's not clear."
In Concubine Rong's impression, Concubine De was eager to take a detour and go away immediately after the two met.
Now that he has indeed taken the initiative to ask for a meeting, there must be something going on.
As for the strategy, Concubine Rong always believed that Concubine De had no such intention.
"Let her in."
Immediately afterwards, Xiaorou brought the master and servant of Concubine De into the Yaohua Palace.
"Why do you want to see me, sister?"
In the pavilion, Concubine Rong sat slowly.
Then he asked softly.
His words were full of disdain.
Although De Fei heard it, she didn't mind at all.
"It's nothing. I just haven't seen my sister for a long time."
"I'm a little concerned about it, so I came here to see it." said Concubine De.
Hearing this reason, Concubine Rong couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Sister, it's better to tell the truth. Don't play tricks on me anymore."
Everyone in the harem knew what Concubine Rong had done to Concubine De in the past.
To say that I miss myself, come and take a look.
Total nonsense!
Concubine De smiled softly.
"If my sister speaks quickly, my sister will stop beating around the bush."
"In a while, it will be His Majesty's birthday."
"I would like to ask my sister what I should give to His Majesty," said Concubine De.
Concubine Rong paused.
From beginning to end, Concubine Rong really didn't take this matter to heart.
It's not even clear when Jiang Qiulu was born.
In the past, the emperor was stupid and never mentioned this matter.
Now that Jiang Qiulu has returned to normal, if she doesn't take it seriously, Concubine Rong may not be able to gain a foothold in the harem.
"Don't be surprised, sister. This matter is also a headache for my sister."
"Originally, when giving gifts, the heart and meaning should be the main focus."
"But Your Majesty is a noble person, so ordinary objects will naturally not be seen in his eyes, and they are not in line with His Majesty's status." Concubine Rong thought for a while and said.
Concubine Rong's words were ambiguous, giving Concubine De a feeling of confusion.
In layman's terms, it means talking nonsense. What is said is equivalent to not being said.
"My sister is deeply favored by His Majesty. I believe His Majesty will like whatever my sister gives me."
Suddenly, Concubine Rong threw out these words.
"What are you talking about, sister?"
"During this period, His Majesty has been busy with government affairs."
"Otherwise, we would have gone to Zhenfusi, and we would not have gone to Fengluan Palace at all."
Concubine Rong's heart trembled when she heard the word "Zhen Fusi" again.
The last time he sneaked out of the palace, he was caught by Jiang Qiulu and Jin Yiwei.
Then he was secretly monitored by Jin Yiwei, making him unable to leave Yaohua Palace for even half a step.
"By the way sister, I almost forgot."
"My sister made some snacks and gave them to my sister."
"Please don't dislike it, sister."
Then, Bingyue took out an exquisite lunch box.
"Sister is interested." Concubine Rong said calmly.
what is this? Show your kindness?
It seems that this concubine is not very stupid and can take advantage of the opportunity.
Concubine Rong thought secretly in her heart.
"Sister, it's cold."
"Let Bingyue be placed in the palace room."
Then, without waiting for Concubine Rong to react, he directly signaled Bingyue to be sent into Concubine Rong's house.
Halfway through, Concubine Rong suddenly remembered something.
He immediately gave Xiaorou a wink.
Xiaorou understood and immediately followed.
The two entered the house.
"Just put it here." Xiaorou pointed to a table and said to Bingyue.
Bingyue did as he was told, and then took out the snacks inside one by one.
Just when she turned around, she found a piece of letter paper on Concubine Rong's dressing table.
Due to Concubine De's sudden arrival, Concubine Rong hurriedly put the letter paper under the dressing box, but a small part of it was exposed.
Unfortunately, this small part was seen by Bingyue,
But Bingyue immediately lowered her head, put away her things, and left directly.
If Xiaorou discovers that Concubine De and herself are here to inquire about information, things will become troublesome.
Outside the door, Concubine Rong and Concubine De sat opposite each other in the pavilion.
"My sister is really thoughtful. No wonder she is so loved by His Majesty."
"I also heard that there are many talented maids in the harem who want to get close to my sister and have a good relationship with her."
When Concubine Rong said this, she had a faint smile on her face.
But this smile heralds danger.
Of course Concubine De knew that the purpose of Concubine Rong's words was actually a warning.
"Sister is joking."
"Now I only have my personal maid Bingyue by my side, and I am willing to talk to my sister a few more words."
"Actually, I also want to be sociable like my sister."
Concubine De had a harmless expression and her tone was also very soft.
Although Concubine De's words were a compliment to herself.
But Concubine Rong always felt that it was a bit strange.
how to say.
Just like if De Fei were a candy, it would be very sweet at first.
Suddenly, you find a piece of glass inside.
But he couldn't spit it out, so he had to endure it and swallow it.
Concubine Rong had felt this way since the last time they met in the back garden.
"Haha, sister is joking." Concubine Rong could only laugh along.
After a while, Bingyue and Xiaorou came out of the hall.
"Okay, then I won't disturb my sister."
Concubine De bowed and prepared to stand up and leave.
"Come here often when you have time."
After Concubine De's master and servant left, the smile on Concubine Rong's face disappeared instantly.
His eyes were as cold as frost.
"What on earth is this bitch doing?" Concubine Rong was a little confused.
She didn't believe that Concubine De was here to test her.
"Xiaorou, did Bingyue do anything unusual when she came in just now?" Concubine Rong asked.
"Return to the queen, no."
"Bingyue put down her things, turned around and left."
"Without any pause."
After hearing Xiaorou's exact answer, Concubine Rong felt relieved.
