"Mother Hui," Liang Xiao unexpectedly stopped her, "I'm still thinking of someone."
"Who is it?" Nanny Hui stopped and asked.
"It's an eunuch named Shi Dianjin. My master promoted him from the Fourth Division." Liang Xiao said, "I once heard someone say that he and Xue Hengzhao were old acquaintances, but I didn't care at that time. , now that it has been mentioned, you might as well pay attention, it may not really be anything. My master’s loyalty to the queen can be learned from time to time, and what I am afraid of is being deceived. "
"Thank you very much, Manager Xiaoliang," Aunt Hui nodded, "I will go back and report to the Queen, please rest well."
Aunt Hui came to the queen and told Liang Xiao what she said.
"How credible do you think his words are?" the queen asked after listening.
"The old slave feels that although Liang Xiao has his own selfish motives, he definitely does not have the guts to make up lies and frame Manager Liang." Sister Hui said, "Besides, what he said corresponds to what Ma Cairen found in many places. "
"This Xue Hengzhao is a disaster." The queen said, "Wan Yi has told me more than once that I should be careful about this palace maid. I didn't pay much attention to it because I thought she was making a fuss. Now it seems that this disaster cannot be kept. ”
"Don't worry about whether she and Manager Liang are really what the Princess and the Queen say. Just for the sake of the Queen's purity of heart, she shouldn't be kept." Aunt Hui narrowed her old eyes, "If she really has bad intentions, then Even if she died unjustly. If she takes ten thousand steps back, even if she is innocent, she just killed a little palace maid by mistake."
"Your words have spoken to my heart. Keeping her will not do me any good, but killing her would be more beneficial." The queen had already made up her mind.
"Since that's the case, there is no need to continue the investigation. After all, the outcome will be the same." Aunt Hui said, "Just find any excuse and get rid of her."
"Thank you for your hard work. Take a break and go back to the East Palace." The Queen smiled at Nanny Hui, "It's true that Liang Jing is the most capable person in front of me, but you make me more at ease than him."
"This old slave will be contented even if he has such words from your Majesty." Aunt Hui was greatly moved. "His Royal Highness is studying hard now, forgetting food and sleep, so please don't worry, Madam."
"You have to pay attention to the people in front of the prince. If you find anyone hiding a traitor, move them all away." The queen's thoughts turned to her precious son, "Be sure to keep an eye on him and eat on time, and don't stay up too late. . As long as he perseveres, he is still growing."
"What the Queen said is true, so this old slave has been coaxing and persuading His Highness to eat and rest as soon as possible every day." Aunt Hui said hurriedly, "Otherwise, our Highness is a good prince with a kind heart. Even if he wants to study hard, he won't be able to bear it when I look at him as a god and a man waiting by his side."
"That's what makes me most at ease when you are here," the queen nodded, "I asked them to bring you some red ginseng tea, which is best for your taste. There are also some tonic things, and I asked someone to send them to you. .”
Aunt Hui quickly thanked her. A palace maid had already come over, holding many boxes and jars.
In Jiaolan Palace, Concubine Xian is drinking tea.
Shucong carefully refilled the tea and said, "I wonder what's going on with the Queen? It's been several days and there's been no movement."
"I didn't hear any noise," Concubine Xian smiled confidently, "It concerns Liang Jing. Doesn't the queen have to cover it up more tightly?"
"But Liang Jing will know about this eventually," Jinglian said, "How is it possible that there is no news at all?"
"It is impossible for the queen to keep hiding this from Liang Jing. After all, she is going to use this matter to test his loyalty." Concubine Xian put down the tea cup and picked up a loquat. "But before that, the queen herself must have eighty-nine years of experience." Only by being sure of the points."
"Actually, Liang Jing may not have any thoughts about Xue Hengzhao, and Xue Hengzhao is even less likely to be interested in Liang Jing. It is said that Prince Yu is devoted to her, and he once made a fuss in the palace. Later, I don't know why it stopped. But since she refuses to get entangled with Prince Yu, it is naturally impossible for her to have an affair with Liang Jing." Shucong said, "I'm worried that the queen's investigation was too clear, but she found out that there was nothing going on between the two of them. Then Didn’t our plan fail?”
"Even if the eunuch and the palace maid really eat together, there won't actually be any trouble. But Liang Jing is different. The queen does not allow him to treat any woman other than herself differently." Concubine Xian said, "Let alone She is said to be from Concubine Fu’s side.”
As early as the beginning, Concubine Xian knew that Xue Hengzhao and Liang Jing were not what some people thought.
It's just that when people in the world talk about relationships between men and women, they can't help but think about personal relationships.
Even palace maids and eunuchs are no exception.
As the chief steward of Ronghua Palace, Liang Jing was already a big figure and attracted attention.
What's more, he is tall and handsome. Even if he is a eunuch, he always makes all the palace ladies peek at him.
It's just that for so many years, Liang Jingjie has kept herself to herself and has never shown any disdain towards the palace maids, so there has never been any bad news in this regard.
If Concubine Xian wants to achieve her goal, she has naturally already thought through the obstacles on the way.
Among them, Liang Jing is the one she must bring down. Only by making the queen no longer trust him can she have greater confidence.
Over the years, she has been carefully observing Liang Jing secretly, trying to get some leverage against him.
But Liang Jing was too cautious and very alert.
Concubine Xian was afraid of exposing herself, so she didn't dare to pursue her too closely.
"It's all thanks to Xue," Shucong peeled a loquat for Concubine Xian. "If she hadn't publicized it herself, we wouldn't have known where to start."
"Now that the Queen has found out, Xue Hengzhao's life may not be saved." Jinglian clicked her tongue, "After she dies, will the Queen still have any doubts about Liang Jing?"
"Xue Hengzhao will not die so easily. She is not one of you." Concubine Xian said very directly, "I even suspect that she was deliberately exposed to give us an opportunity."
"On purpose? Why did she do this? Isn't it to cause trouble for herself?" The two maids were puzzled.
"She is Concubine Fu's military advisor. Without her, do you think Concubine Fu would be where she is today?" Concubine Xian smiled a little coldly, "The Queen may not know what kind of person she is, but I do. So we are actually performing this play together and performing it for the queen."
"If this is really the case, then Xue Hengzhao's scheming is really deep." Jinglian shook her head after hearing this, "But I always feel that she has offended the queen after all. Even if I can't kill her for the time being, I can't just let her go." ”
