Chapter 137
The next day, the news that Concubine Chen was seriously ill by Concubine Hua spread throughout the harem.

There was that quick-spoken person who spread rumors, making Shang Kelan say that he was going to die tomorrow!
But in this way, as Shang Kelan said, no concubine in the palace would come to Xianya Palace to trouble her.

In the afternoon, as dusk fell, Wen Chun, who hadn't been in Xianya Palace for a few days, suddenly appeared and entered Shang Kelan's bedroom.

Shang Kelan had just dressed up as the little court lady Lan'er, when she saw that Wenchun had returned, she hurriedly said, "How about it, did you find any news?"

Wen Chun said solemnly: "Returning to the empress, the servant followed Zhao Yihai and found that Zhao Yihai would go to the brothel every time he arrived at Haishi, and every night he spent a thousand taels of gold to buy the top card of the brothel, and he only left at Chenshi every day."

Hearing this, Shang Kelan was silent for a while, and said, "What else?"

Wen Chundao: "According to the investigation of the servants, before the eldest son was imprisoned, Zhao Yihai lived very poorly, but after the eldest son was imprisoned, he seemed to suddenly become rich. The servants hibernated in his mansion, and finally found three There are ten thousand taels of silver, and the badge of the state treasury is printed on the silver."

Only disaster silver will bear the emblem of the treasury.

But if Zhao Yihai swallowed 3 taels of disaster silver, what about the remaining 7 taels?

Shang Kelan was thoughtful, and after being silent for a while, she raised her eyes, smiled at Wen Chun, and said, "Okay, thank you very much, you will stay in the palace for the next few days, and have a good rest."

After finishing speaking, Shang Kelan carried a food box and walked out the door.

It's just that neither of them noticed that outside the bedroom, by the wall, a maid quietly retreated and left Xianya Palace.

And the direction she was going was Ximeng Palace.

At this time, in Ximeng Palace.

In the side hall, Concubine Jia was talking to Concubine Hua.

After Fu Qingxi came to send the news that day, Zhao Kehan ​​ordered people to keep an eye on Shang Kelan, and at the same time asked Concubine Hua to make trouble for Shang Kelan, making it impossible for her to leave the palace.

But since Shang Kelan was seriously ill, no one dared to run to the Xianya Palace, and so did Concubine Hua.

Zhao Kehan ​​frowned, and said: "How can there be such a coincidence in this world, Concubine Chen is obviously pretending to be sick to scare you on purpose."

Concubine Hua curled her lips, and said reluctantly: "Anyway, I won't go to Xianya Palace. Since our plan is successful, Concubine Chen is seriously ill again, so I just let nature take its course. Why bother?"

After hearing Concubine Hua's words, Zhao Kehan's eyes darkened, and he tried not to change his face.

At this time, a palace maid in pink hurried in, and respectfully saluted Zhao Kehan: "I want to report to the concubine Jia, this servant has something to report!"

Before Zhao Kehan ​​could speak, Concubine Hua asked in surprise, "Isn't this a maid from Concubine Chen's Palace? How did she come to Ximeng Palace?"

After saying that, Concubine Hua came to her senses again, and said with a smile: "I think this must be your internal response, Empress Jia!"

Zhao Kehan ​​didn't even want to talk to her, he just waved his hand to the maid and said, "Concubine Hua is not an outsider, if you have any news, it's okay to say it."

Hearing this, the palace servant said: "Returning to Concubine Jia's words, Concubine Chen used Wen Chun, a first-class maid next to her, to inquire about the news, and she has already found out the 3 taels of disaster silver hidden in Zhao Yihai's mansion."

Boom!
As soon as these words came out, the hearts of both of them sank, and Concubine Hua's face changed drastically. She stepped forward and grabbed her collar regardless of her appearance, "What did you say? Zhao Yihai's disaster money has been found out?"

Concubine Jia sneered, and said, "What's the rush? You were asked to monitor Concubine Chen just now and you didn't go, and you said let nature take its course. No, have you seen the outcome of the matter?"

With a sound of "dong", Concubine Hua sat down heavily on the chair, and sent the maid in her hand away.

After Zhao Kehan ​​asked Hongxiu to reward the maid, she sent the maid back to the Xianya Palace.

At the same time, she looked at Concubine Hua, and said with a smile that was not a smile: "Now, do you still think that this palace's judgment is wrong? You know, the remaining 7 taels of silver are hidden in Governor Li's Your Majesty, at this moment, Governor Li hasn't left the capital with the money, has he?"

When Concubine Hua heard this, a layer of cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

She licked her dry lips, and quickly pulled Zhao Kehan's sleeves and said: "Ms. Jiafei, I am stupid, I will definitely join hands with you, so that Concubine Chen will never have a chance to stand up again!"

Zhao Kehan ​​poured her a cup of tea slowly, smiled, and said, "What's the hurry, aren't the four maids of Xianya Palace Shang Kelan's right-hand man? Just find a way to get rid of them one by one... "

As soon as the words fell, a dark light flashed in Zhao Kehan's eyes.

Concubine Hua was taken aback for a moment, and then said in puzzlement: "Why didn't you get rid of Fu Pu together? That old eunuch has two brushes!"

Zhao Kehan ​​glanced at her, took a sip of tea lightly, and said, "He has someone to deal with."

Suddenly, Concubine Hua's mind flashed, and the image of Fu Qingxi appeared in front of her eyes.

At the same time, she also understood the reason why Zhao Kehan ​​said these words.

Next, Concubine Hua discussed with Zhao Kehan ​​about obstructing Concubine Chen, and she left Ximeng Palace.

Only after she left, Zhao Kehan ​​dropped the look on his face and said with a sneer, "Idiot."

Taking advantage of the darkness, Shang Kelan hurried out of the palace carrying the food box.

Dali Temple is in the east of the city, and the fastest way to go out is through the east gate.

Before she came out, Shang Kelan had already told Wan Dong to temporarily pretend to be sick for a day instead of her.

Avoiding the sight of the patrolling guards and hiding all the way, she finally arrived at the east gate without any danger.

Touching the palace card in his hand, Shang Kelan heaved a sigh of relief, took it and walked towards the east gate.

A total of sixteen guards dressed in yellow stood guard at the east gate in two rows. When the leader saw Shang Kelan, he immediately stopped him and said, "What are you doing? No one is allowed to enter or leave the palace after the fifth o'clock!"

Shang Kelan showed him the palace card, and said: "The concubine Chen is seriously ill, the imperial hospital lacks medicinal materials, the servants are ordered to go out of the palace to find medicine, this is the concubine Chen's palace card!"

The guard took it over and looked at it. He could tell if it was real or not.

Seeing that he was examining carefully, Shang Kelan felt a little nervous.

After a long tens of seconds, the guard returned the palace card to her, and continued to interrogate: "The palace card is real, but since you are out of the palace to buy medicine, what are you doing with the food box?"

Shang Kelan opened the lid of the food box to show him, and explained: "The empress asked the slaves to give it to the guards. Inside are some snacks and 30-year-old daughter red. The empress knows that asking for medicine late at night will embarrass you all. , so let the slaves bring these here."

meat, wine!
Ever since the queen cut back on expenses, they haven't had a big meal for a long time, let alone their 30-year-old daughter Hong!
Immediately, more than a dozen guards couldn't help but turned to the food box in Zhizi's hand. The aroma of the food inside lingered at the tip of their noses, which was a kind of temptation for them.

A smile flashed across Shang Kelan's eyes, the guard's eyes moved slightly, he took the food box in her hand, and said with a smile: "Concubine Chen, you are welcome, girl, please!"

As soon as the words fell, he stepped aside, and the others also opened the palace door one after another.

At this point, Shang Kelan was completely relieved, smiled slightly, and thanked everyone: "Thank you for the convenience of the guards, the servants will definitely speak a few words of kindness for everyone in front of the concubine Chen!"
