Ma'am, she only wants to be promoted

Chapter 124 How did the rumor come about

The Empress Dowager looked at Luo Chengjing, sighed, and said: "Since you have your own considerations, Your Majesty, Aijia will not say much, but Aijia can remind the Emperor that you are a king, and your every move is related to the entire Dayong. , must not ruin the foundation of the ancestors because of some petty love."

Luo Chengjing nodded, and said: "Don't worry, the queen mother, I will spare you my son."

After that, Luo Chengjing talked with the queen mother for a while, until the queen mother was tired and started to drive people away, Luo Chengjing left Shou'an Palace.

After coming out of Shou'an Palace, Luo Chengjing asked Lian Yongwang, "How did it get out that Zheng Jieyu had the disease?"

"Back to the emperor, as far as I know, Cui Jieyu and Lu Meiren went to visit Zheng Jieyu together. Zheng Jieyu used the reason that she was sick, and she was afraid of giving Cui Jieyu and Lu Meiren the excuse of being sick. Cui Jieyu and Lu Meiren came out, when Cui Jieyu and Lu Meiren were talking, they were overheard by a few palace people, and somehow they were dressed like this."

Lian Yongwang observed Luo Chengjing's expression calmly while talking. He has served Luo Chengjing by his side since Luo Chengjing was the prince. Although he dare not say that he knows Luo Chengjing well, most of the time he can understand Luo Chengjing's thoughts. .

But when it comes to Luo Chengjing's attitude towards Lu Meiren and Zheng Jieyu, he has always been a little confused.

This time both Zheng Jieyu and Lu Meiren were involved in this matter, he was not sure how the emperor would handle it.

Lian Yongwang was thinking about it when he heard Luo Chengjing ask: "Who brought up the matter of visiting Zheng Jieyu, Cui Jieyu or Zheng Meiren?"

"It seems that Cui Jieyu mentioned it first."

It took Lan Xin a long time to use a lot of contacts to find out the source of the rumors.

Zheng Jieyu was a little surprised: "Is there no movement from the people in Linglong Pavilion?"

Zheng Jieyu gritted her teeth and said, "Lu Meiren is really a good trick!"

Zheng Jieyu snorted coldly, "I don't believe it, the rumors would have spread like this if no one had contributed to the flames."

Lian Yongwang listened to the emperor's orders, but really couldn't understand why the emperor did this, if it was said that the emperor did it for Zheng Jieyu and Lu Meiren to fight each other, it doesn't seem like it.

"The maid asked someone to investigate. The reason for this rumor is because of Cui Jieyu and Lu Meiren." Lan Xin looked at Zheng Jieyu's livid face, and said all the following words tremblingly, "But this The words were not spoken by Cui Jieyu and Lu Meiren, but after Cui Jieyu and Lu Meiren visited the sick that day, the two said outside that it was Jieyu who was seriously ill, so you didn't want to see them, and was told by a few little palace people I heard it, passed it on and passed it on, and it became like this.”

Shaking his head secretly, Lian Yongwang felt that he should be thinking too much.

When Zheng Jieyu heard the news, he would ask people to investigate. If they found out that the source of the rumors was Lu Meiren and Cui Jieyu, they would blame Cui Jieyu and Lu Meiren, but relatively speaking, Zheng Jieyu might be more serious. I'm a little anxious.

"That's it..." Luo Chengjing didn't know what he thought of, smiled lightly, and said to Lian Yongwang: "You turn around and ask someone to give Zheng Jieyu a chance, just say that the Queen Mother heard that she had the disease , just in case, I want to send her out of the palace."

Moreover, when Meiren Lu came to visit her sick that day, Jieyu didn't want to see anyone, because she herself said that she was afraid of getting sick and making Meiren Lu and the others angry.

Zheng Jieyu covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and after coughing twice, her eyes became watery.

After Zheng Jieyu took two sips of water, she put down the glass and looked at Lan Xin who wanted to say something, frowned and asked, "What happened again?"

Seeing this, Lan Xin hurriedly poured a glass of water and handed it to Zheng Jieyu.

Zheng Jieyu originally thought that Lu Wanning would start in other places, such as the medicinal materials and incense she sent when she visited the doctor that day. After all, these are the easiest things to mess with, so she let people throw away those things , but she didn't expect that Lu Wanning would use the rumors to deal with her.

It seems that Lu Meiren did nothing about it, but if Lu Meiren deliberately said that she was seriously ill when she and Cui Jieyu came to visit that day, how could there be such rumors in the palace?
"Jieyu, what should we do now?" Lan Xin asked, even though they all knew that this incident was done on purpose by Lu Meiren, they still had no evidence to prove that Lu Meiren did it on purpose, even if they sued the emperor, Lu Meiren can also explain the past with just one careless remark.

He always felt that the emperor's move seemed to make Zheng Meiren feel bad.

Lian Yongwang agreed, and asked someone to handle the matter later.

Zheng Jieyu slowed down for a while, and finally stopped coughing. She picked up the cup and took a sip of water, then put the cup heavily back on the table, and said viciously: "Go and find out who spread such rumors?"

No matter what the emperor's purpose is, since the emperor ordered it, it is not something he can question.

Lan Xin glanced at Zheng Jieyu's face, and said with some hesitation: "Now there are rumors in the palace that you, Jieyu, were infected with the disease. I don't know which bastard with a sore mouth spread the matter to the empress dowager." In my ears, this servant heard that the Empress Dowager is afraid that Jieyu will pass on the disease to the masters in the palace, so she wants to send you out of the palace to recuperate."

Lan Xin gently patted Zheng Jieyu's back, while persuading: "Jieyu, don't worry, the rumors are rumors after all, as long as you show up, the rumors will be self-defeating."

"Cough, cough..., you... what did you say?" Zheng Jieyu was anxious, and coughed again.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

In the Ruyi Hall, although Zheng Jieyu had no fever, she was still a little weak because she really made herself ill, and she had to cough a few times from time to time.

Lan Xin lowered her head and said: "Jie Yu is right, the maid also found out that someone in the empress's palace was helping the flames."

"Yes, Jieyu, this servant will let someone investigate."

Lan Xin shook her head, "The maidservant found no news. Except for what Lu Meiren said that day that Jieyu's illness was serious, she didn't seem to have done anything else."

Zheng Jieyu's face was gloomy for a while, before she said: "Tomorrow morning, I'll go to pay my respects to the empress first."

Dealing with Lu Wanning is secondary now, the most important thing is to let everyone know that the previous rumors were just rumors, she just contracted the cold, and did not suffer from the disease.

Otherwise, if the Empress Dowager really sent her out of the palace, it would be difficult for her to come back.

Although the emperor likes her very much now and knows that he is not infected with the epidemic, if the emperor knows the plan of the empress dowager, he will definitely speak for her in front of the empress dowager.

But she also knew that the emperor was the most filial, if the empress dowager insisted on sending herself out of the palace, she was not sure whether the emperor would go against the empress dowager's wish for her.
