Ma'am, she only wants to be promoted

Chapter 184 The Death of Zheng Jieyu

Zheng Jieyu was deprived of her title, and the death order and the reward for Lu Wanning were sent from Jianzhang Palace at the same time, causing an uproar in the harem.

No one in the harem thought that Zheng Jieyu would be so courageous that he would dare to poison the emperor.

In Qingren Palace, Concubine Jing was pruning jasmine branches in a pot. After hearing this, she was stunned and cut off a main branch that she was planning to keep.

Concubine Jing looked at the main branch that had fallen on the ground, and handed the sight in her hand to Sujuan, the court lady, and sighed: "A good potted flower has been destroyed like this, let's move it out and deal with it."

Upon hearing this, a little palace lady stepped forward and moved away the pot of jasmine that was originally densely branched and leafy.

Sujuan put the scissors away, took the handkerchief and handed it to Concubine Jing, and said, "Madam, will Zheng Jieyu's matter affect you?"

Concubine Jing handed Sujuan the handkerchief that she had wiped her hands, and said lightly: "It will certainly affect it."

But this influence is not because of her close relationship with Zheng Jieyu on weekdays, but because of the relationship between her father and Zheng's family.

Now it depends on whether the emperor intends to touch her father. If the emperor intends to touch her father, then she may not be able to keep her position as a respected concubine. something will happen.

Sujuan doesn't understand this, so she doesn't understand why Concubine Jing knows that this matter will affect her, but she can still be so calm at this moment.

Sujuan wanted to ask, but seeing that Concubine Jing had no intention of continuing this topic, she had no choice but to keep her doubts in her heart.

In Linglong Pavilion, Lu Wanning looked at the rewards that were almost filling the room, and smiled and rewarded the little eunuch who came to deliver the rewards.

After the little eunuch left, Lu Wanning simply looked through it, and asked Qingzhi and Qingdai to temporarily put the things into the side hall.

In the past three years, Luo Chengjing has already rewarded her with a lot of things, and the empty room in Linglong Pavilion that was used as a warehouse can no longer hold it.

Originally, Qingzhi wanted to clean up another empty room and use it as a warehouse, but thinking that she would move to Biyun Palace soon, she didn't clean it up.

The things that Luo Chengjing appreciates today can only be temporarily placed in the side hall, and will be moved to Biyun Palace together on June [-]th, and then put into storage.

Qingzhi and Qingdai were busy arranging these things and making books, while Lu Wanning watched for a while and yawned boredly.

Qingzhi glanced at Lu Wanning, and said, "Master, are you sleepy? Is this servant waiting for you to rest for a while?"

They have already returned to their own territory, so of course they fell asleep when they wanted to.

Lu Wanning responded, and lay down on the bed she had been away for a long time under Qingzhi's service, and fell asleep after a while.

Lu Wanning slept very soundly this time, and it was already past noon when she woke up.

Lu Wanning sat up from the bed, and sighed in a good mood: "Sure enough, my bed is comfortable to sleep in."

Qing Dai heard the words and said from the side: "Master, you have been asleep for more than two hours."

"Has it been so long?" Lu Wanning said, "No wonder I feel like I finally woke up."

"Master didn't sleep in Jianzhang Palace during this time, okay?" Qing Dai asked.

During Lu Wanning's stay in Jianzhang Palace, Qingzhi was always serving her personally, while Qing Dai was left in Linglong Pavilion to take care of the house. Qingdai didn't know much about Lu Wanning's life in Jianzhang Palace.

Lu Wanning nodded, "A little bit."

Although she fell asleep as usual in Jianzhang Palace every day, it was difficult for her to sleep soundly in Jianzhang Palace.

"Master has suffered." Qing Dai said distressedly.

Lu Wanning smiled and said, "If the other concubines in the palace heard what you said, they should say that we got a bargain and behaved."

What an honor to be able to stay in Jianzhang Palace for so long.

"Although it is indeed a good thing for the master to serve the emperor, it is also a fact that the master has suffered." Qing Dai said.

Qingzhi came in from the outside, heard the end of Qingdai's words, and asked: "What's the truth?"

"I said the master has suffered during this time."

Qingzhi nodded in agreement, "Indeed."

Lu Wanning smiled, "Anyway, there will be no more opportunities like this in the future."

The three masters and servants were talking, when a little maid came in to report: "Master, Zhou Cairen is here."

After hearing this, Lu Wanning let Qingzhi and Qingdai take care of her dressing and dressing, and at the same time said to the little maid: "Serve Zhou Cairen tea, let her sit for a while."

When Lu Wanning went out from the inner room, Zhou Cairen was drinking tea. Seeing Lu Wanning coming out, Zhou Cairen stood up and saluted Lu Wanning: "The concubine has seen Zhuang Concubine."

Lu Wanning walked over to help Zhou Cairen, and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a few days, why did Cairen have an affair with me?"

Zhou Cairen also smiled and said, "It's been a while since I haven't seen Concubine Zhuang, now that I finally see my concubine, I have to show my attitude."

Lu Wanning shook her head, "It's the best attitude for you to come and see me."

"Originally, the concubine planned to come over when she heard that your mother had returned to the Linglong Pavilion, but later she heard that the emperor rewarded you with a lot of things. The concubine thought that you must have time to clean up, the concubine, so she changed the time to this meeting Son."

"Then it's a coincidence that you came here." Lu Wanning smiled and said, "If I had come earlier, I might still be sleeping."

"That's true."

Zhou Cairen came today to care about Lu Wanning, to talk with Lu Wanning, and left after staying for a while.

After Zhou Cairen left, Zhou Man came in from the outside and talked to Lu Wanning about Zheng Jieyu.

After the emperor's decree was delivered to the Ruyi Pavilion, Zheng Jieyu did not panic. After receiving the decree calmly, she personally dressed herself, and then a white silk wrapped around the beam, ending her own life.

"The emperor has ordered Zheng Jieyu's body to be thrown into the mass grave at this time." Zhou Man said with a sigh.

A day ago, she was a high-ranking concubine, but now she is wrapped in a broken mat, and her soul returns to the mass grave.

Lu Wanning didn't think anything about it, Zheng Jieyu could poison the emperor, so do you still think that the emperor has any affection for her?

In the next few days, although Luo Chengjing didn't have to pretend to be poisoned anymore, he had to deal with the ministers who were bribed by the King of Qi, as well as the papers accumulated some time ago, and he didn't have much time to enter the harem.

As a result, it has been almost a month since the new batch of show girls entered the palace, and none of them even met the emperor.

Those who were impatient couldn't wait any longer, and began to think about other things.

Lu Wanning is now a concubine after all, and without Zheng Jieyu, she has become the most favored one in the palace, so naturally someone has made an idea of ​​her.

Lu Wanning originally made an appointment with Zhou Cairen to appreciate the lotus, and the lotus in Wenxin Lake was in full bloom at this time.

But as soon as she tidied herself up, before she went out, Qingzhi came in to report: "Master, the new Wang Cairen who entered the palace this year has come to greet you."
