Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 296

Changle Palace, inside the bedroom.

Zhao Kexi was restrained by His Majesty, holding an exquisite gold-plated stove in his hand, lying leisurely on the beauty's couch, looking at the thin snow drifting outside the window, he said calmly: "So this is the snow in the capital? I have never seen snow in Zhejiang, so I thought it was so beautiful, but it turned out to be nothing more than that.”

At this time, Calligraphy and Painting opened the curtain and hurried in, saluted her and said, "I want to report to you, my servant has already dealt with those matters properly, no one will follow the clues to find your head, please rest assured, and this servant I also found out that Concubine Chen and Concubine Jia will return to Beijing soon."

Hearing that Zhao Kexi was coming back, a look of resentment suddenly appeared on Zhao Kexi's face, and he said, "Hmph, it's fine that this sister of this palace escaped unharmed, but now she comes back with a bad face. , if she dares to take away even a little bit of palace power from Bengong, Bengong won't let her go easily!"

The two sisters have long been at odds with each other because they have their own ghosts.

Calligraphy and painting did not speak at the side, not daring to persuade.

After venting, Zhao Kexi regained her composure, lay back on the beauty's couch and asked, "How is that bitch Jia Zhaoyi doing?"

Then Calligraphy said respectfully: "Reporting to your mother, Jia Zhaoyi is seriously ill. Everything is as you expected. According to this posture, Jia Zhaoyi will not survive this winter."

Hearing this, Zhao Kexi smiled in satisfaction, and said: "That's right, Jia Zhaoyi, a bastard, overestimated her own strength, and wanted to step on my palace while I was being restrained by His Majesty, and finally put myself What an idiot to get in! I have lived for so long, and no one has dared to fight with me in front of me. She Jia Zhaoyi is out of luck, she deserves it!"

Saying that, Zhao Kexi laughed out loud.

After she had laughed enough, Shuhua added: "Just this afternoon, Zhi Zi, the maid in charge of the Xianya Palace, brought a maid to visit Jia Zhaoyi."

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Kexi immediately stopped smiling, looked at her nervously and said, "Did the people from Xianya Palace find anything?"

Calligraphy shook his head, and said: "Don't worry, empress, they didn't find out about Jia Zhaoyi's food. The slaves have already ordered the head of the imperial dining room to increase the dose of medicine. If Jia Zhaoyi stops taking the food from the imperial dining room, it proves that they already know about you. The matter of tampering with the food in the imperial dining room."

"And the slaves have been watching closely, and have not found such a situation yet."

Hearing this, Zhao Kexi relaxed, and said: "You did a good job, this hairpin will reward you."

"Thank you, servant girl, for your reward! It is my honor to serve you, and I am willing to do my best for you, no matter what!"

The hairpin is an exquisite gold hairpin, which can be exchanged for a lot of silver in the market.

While thanking Zhao Kexi with calligraphy and painting, he did not forget to show his loyalty to Zhao Kexi, and Zhao Kexi became even more satisfied when he saw this maid.

After receiving the reward, the calligraphy and painting retreated.

A few days later, Shang Kelan and Concubine Jia arrived in the capital.

The two of them were sitting in a carriage, with the imperial guards guarding them, Chen Yetan and Tieniu followed beside the carriage, Zhiqiu went into the carriage and sat with Shang Kelan.

The carriage was walking on the flat road, not shaking at all, very stable.

After pouring a cup of tea leisurely, Shang Kelan asked, "How are Tieniu and Fupu's injuries?"

Zhiqiu smiled slightly, and replied: "Don't worry, empress, both of them only suffered some superficial injuries, after the treatment of slaves, they will recover soon."

Nodding his head, Shang Kelan smiled and said, "I have two banknotes with me, I don't bring much, just 200 taels, you can distribute the 200 taels of silver to Big Brother Tieniu and Young Master Chen for me, here is coming soon The imperial palace, it would be inconvenient for them to follow into the palace."

If these two people were exposed to the harem and those with malicious intentions, they might also be dragged into the water. This is not what Shang Kelan wanted to see, so she ordered Zhiqiu like this.Zhiqiu received the banknote, nodded, and said solemnly: "Your servant understands, empress is at ease."

Afterwards, she jumped out of the carriage, handed the bank notes to Chen Yetan and Tieniu respectively, and said to them, "Both benefactors, my master has ordered that this is a thank you gift for the two of you. I will wait for your mother to get it later." Kong, thank you both again, the palace is in front of you, for your convenience, please go back."

Seeing this, Chen Yetan's eyes lit up, and he stretched out his hand to quickly take the bank note, but Tie Niu didn't take it, but explained: "Young Master Shang has already paid the reward, so you don't need to be polite, this grassroots can't bear it." Let’s ask the girl to take it back.”

What Tie Niu said was serious, and he really wouldn't accept the money.

And Chen Yetan took the silver with a smile, and said to Zhiqiu: "It's okay, it's okay, he doesn't want it, I'll take it for him."

But as soon as Chen Yetan got the banknote, Tieniu snatched it back and put it back in Zhiqiu's hands.

Immediately afterwards, Tieniu glanced at her and said, "Don't take other people's money rashly, Miss Chen..."

After thinking about it, Tieniu still called her Miss Chen. After all, he had already seen through that Chen Yetan was a daughter.

Chen Yetan glared at him, then pushed him and said, "You go, you go, don't disturb me to enter the palace to receive the reward, and later escort the concubine Chen into the palace, His Majesty will definitely reward me!"

The two talked unscrupulously, and didn't pay attention to the concubine Jia in front at all. The originally quiet team became lively because of their voices.

Fopp was walking in front, and when he heard the movement behind, he just smiled and didn't look back.

These young people can make a fuss if they want to. Anyway, he is old and can't control it anymore.

In Concubine Jia's carriage, although Zhao Kehan's face had recovered, he was still wearing white gauze.

She heard the noise from behind, her eyes became colder, and she only asked Xinrui who was waiting on the side: "Is there any news from the palace?"

Xinrui immediately reported back, not daring to be negligent, and only listened to her: "I told you, there is news from calligraphy and painting that Jia Zhaoyi will not survive this winter, and the palace power in the middle palace has not been under the concubine of the morning, but the middle palace is not under the control of the concubine Chen. The House of Internal Affairs and some key places on the other side of the palace have already been controlled by the little concubine Chen."

In this way, Concubine Chen just doesn't have the name of being in charge of the Central Palace, but she has the reality of being in charge of the Central Palace.

Zhao Kehan ​​smiled, and said: "She did a good job, although she pretended to be smart."

In addition, Xinrui thought for a while, and added: "Just now, Commander Wang asked the servants to convey to the empress that when you and Concubine Chen fell off the cliff, Commander Wang made a gesture of saving the two, but because of time constraints, there was only time to save them." You, so when His Majesty asks later, you don't have to worry."

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Kehan ​​nodded, and said: "This Palace understands, and besides, let the people of Ximeng Palace stay in the bedroom honestly during this period of time, don't cause trouble, and order Fu Qingxi to take care of those slaves."

"Yes, madam!"

Xinrui replied obediently.

When approaching the east gate, Chen Yetan jumped into the carriage, and after sending Zhiqiu away, only she and Shang Kelan were left in the carriage.

Shang Kelan looked at her with a smile and said, "Mr. Chen, are you going to enter the palace with me in a female attire?"
