Ma'am, she only wants to be promoted

Concubine Jing nodded, now she is waiting for her father's reply.

Concubine Jing waited for more than 20 days.

After Sujuan took General He's reply letter and handed it to Concubine Jing, Concubine Jing couldn't wait to open the envelope.

After quickly reading the contents of the letter, Concubine Jing said happily: "Father supports my idea."

Sujuan heard the words and immediately said: "Congratulations to your mother, with the master helping your mother, your wish will definitely come true."

"En." Concubine Jing nodded, and asked Sujuan, "Who do you think among the low-ranking concubines in the palace is most likely to become the little emperor?"

Although General He supports Concubine Jing's idea, General He also said in the letter that if Concubine Jing wants to fulfill her wish, she must first have a prince under her name.

The emperor only comes to her Qingren Palace once a month now, and he just sleeps. Her hope of conceiving a prince is relatively slim, but it is relatively feasible to raise a child of a low-ranking concubine by her side.

Now there are only her, Concubine Xi and Concubine Zhuang who are qualified to raise children in the palace.

She gave birth to the eldest princess, Xi concubine gave birth to the second princess, Zhuang concubine is also pregnant now, if it is true that another low-ranking concubine gives birth, then the one who is most qualified to educate is herself.

Sujuan thought about it carefully, and answered Concubine Jing: "Now Xia Meiren and Wang Cairen are favored, but Wang Cairen was favored by Concubine Zhuang who left at the beginning. Go to mother and child."

"For Xia Meiren, the empress can try to win her over. Didn't she often come to greet the empress before, she should want to seek refuge with the empress."

Concubine Jing thought for a while, and said: "Go back and pick some fresh and lively materials and jewelry from the library and send them to Xia Meiren."

"Yes, empress." Sujuan replied.

After Xia Meiren received the things sent by Concubine Jing, she went to Qingren Palace to greet Concubine Jing the next day.

Qingzhi told Lu Wanning about the actions between Concubine Jing and Xia Meiren, and Lu Wanning laughed after hearing it, "Don't worry about them, come and help me, I'll go walk around the yard again."

Now, Lu Wanning's belly has gotten bigger, although it doesn't affect her actions much, but just to be careful, Lu Wanning is supported by Qingzhi and Qingdai most of the time.

After walking around the yard twice, Lu Wanning returned indoors and suddenly thought of Wen Zhaoyi.

So, he asked Qingzhi, "Is there still no movement from Wen Zhaoyi's side?"

Qingzhi shook her head, and said, "The servant girl has been watching Wen Zhaoyi, and I haven't noticed any unusual behaviors from her."

This is strange, Lu Wanning thought, could it be that Wen Zhaoyi really didn't intend to care about Xi Concubine's schemes against her before?
If Wen Zhaoyi really didn't intend to care about Xi Concubine's scheme against her before, then wouldn't she have been waiting in vain these days.

"Master, do you want this servant to find a way to add fire to Wen Zhaoyi?" Qingzhi asked Lu Wanning.

Wen Zhaoyi doesn't want to worry about the past, but what if Wen Zhaoyi finds out that no matter how much she endures, the concubine Xi will not let her go?

Will Wen Zhaoyi continue to be patient?
Rabbits bite when they are in a hurry, not to mention Wen Zhaoyi is not a rabbit.

Lu Wanning thought for a while when she heard the words, then shook her head and said, "Don't move for now, I'll talk about it after I give birth in the next year."

The expected date of delivery of the child in Lu Wanning's womb is February 28 next year, and Lu Wanning feels that everything is not as important as the child in her womb.

Qingzhi also understood the seriousness, and after hearing Lu Wanning's words, she said: "Master, don't worry, the servants and others will definitely protect the master and the little master in the belly of the master."

Never let people harm the master and the little master.

Qingzhi didn't say this sentence, but swore secretly in her heart.

Both Lu Wanning and Qingzhi thought that Wen Zhaoyi hadn't done anything, but they didn't know that Wen Zhaoyi had already set up a trick, and the trick was finally uncovered the day before the Chinese New Year this year.

It wasn't until Lu Wanning heard the news that Huang Xiang, the palace maid of Lanyue Palace, had an affair with Xu Ping, the guard, that Lu Wanning knew that Wen Zhaoyi had already acted.

Lu Wanning looked at Qingzhi and Qingdai with a face full of surprise, "Aren't you staring at Wen Zhaoyi? Didn't you find anything?"

Qingzhi and Qingdai shook their heads in shame, "The people who are staring at Wen Zhaoyi have not noticed anything about the people in Wen Zhaoyi's palace."

"Then how did Wen Zhaoyi send Huang Xiang and this guard named Xu Ping together?" Lu Wanning was puzzled, could it be that the guard Xu Ping and Huang Xiang had an affair in the first place, but it just happened to be discovered by Wen Zhaoyi's people?

If this is the case, it seems to be in the past. If Wen Zhaoyi arranged it intentionally, then the game Wen Zhaoyi arranged would be a dead end for Huang Xiang, but it would not hurt Xi Concubine too much.

Although the affair between the maid of honor and the bodyguard will affect Xi Concubine's reputation, after all, the person who has the affair is not Xi Concubine, and the emperor will not watch someone bring this matter to Xi Concubine for the sake of the three princesses.

Just as Lu Wanning was thinking, Zhou Man ran in from outside with an inexplicable excitement on his face.

"Master, master, there is a new development in the affair between the maid of Lanyue Palace and the guard."

There was an interested expression on Lu Wanning's face.

Qing Dai urged Zhou Man even more impatiently, saying: "Say it quickly, talk it up quickly, don't pretend to be a fool in front of the master."

Zhou Man cleared his throat and said with a smile, "The person in charge of the body search found Xi Concubine's handkerchief on the bodyguard."

"what?"

"really?"

Qingzhi and Qingdai spoke at the same time.

Lu Wanning was stunned by this development, so was the person who the guards were having an affair with was Xi Concubine's eldest court lady Huang Xiang or Xi Concubine herself?
Zhou Man looked at the appearances of Lu Wanning, Qingzhi, and Qingdai, and continued: "Also, that maid named Huang Xiang has never admitted that she had an affair with that guard named Xu Ping before, and only said that she had an affair with that guard. Xu Ping just hid and said a few words, but after seeing Xi Concubine's veil was found, she said in a panic that the veil did not belong to Xi Concubine, but she gave it to her with Xi Concubine's veil on her head. For Xu Ping."

Qing Dai said: "This Huang Xiang is loyal, but it's a pity that she is like this place without 300 taels of silver."

Lu Wanning frowned, why did she feel something was wrong.

Lu Wanning thought about it, and figured out what was wrong. Huang Xiang could have helped Concubine Xi plot against Wen Zhaoyi so easily before, how could she make such a mistake?
Could it be that Huang Xiang had some reason to fall into Wen Zhaoyi's hands, and Wen Zhaoyi forced her to steal Xi Concubine's handkerchief and give it to Xu Ping, so as to frame Xi Concubine and Xu Ping?
This possibility is still very large.

Xi Concubine couldn't explain this matter even if she had a long mouth. This time, Xi Concubine should just admit it.

I have to say that Lu Wanning is very satisfied with the result.
