Chapter 38: Joining forces One day, Tong Lai opened the window strangely, looked around outside the window unusually, and then closed the window.
Then, he walked out the door. Mei Lan, the maid on duty, asked, "What's wrong with you today? Where are you going?" Tong Lai replied, "It's okay, just follow me and you'll find out." Tong Lai walked to Wang Yuxi Palace. Gu Luochou is also there.
This time she specially brought Yu Jue Fei’s sachet and earring ornaments, dressing up like a poisonous beauty.
This made Xu Jingqing, a 13-year-old woman who had served Concubine Li, say: "Your dress..." Hehe, and then burst out laughing,
"I have seen poisonous people, but I have never seen anyone as poisonous as you!" Wang Yuxi hurriedly answered: "She is the maid that Concubine Li kept with me, her name is Xu Jingqing. She is young and ignorant, don't listen to her Nonsense. Concubine Li is not here this time, but she has promised to join forces with us to bring down Concubine Yu Jue and Concubine Han Xiang." Entering the back room, he also apprenticed Concubine Xian, Concubine Ma Yin and Concubine Wu Cui.
They were very enthusiastic. Concubine Xi Xian and Concubine Ma Yin played Go with each other, while Concubine Wu Cui looked on.
Tong Lai and Wang Yuxi found a place, also took out a chessboard, and also played Go. Gu Luocou watched from the side.
Wu Cuifei and Gu Luochou looked away from the chessboard, and then smoothly exchanged positions.
Due to the concentration on playing chess and watching chess, no one noticed something that could have very serious consequences for everyone.
