Chapter 224 Ruyi 21
Even though Jinxiu's words made her feel sad, she had to admit that in the emperor's heart, Queen Chunyuan was indeed more important than herself.
This made Concubine Hua look a little disappointed for a moment, but she quickly composed herself.
It doesn't matter. Why should she bother with a dead person? She is the one who is with the emperor now. Besides, in her opinion, Queen Chunyuan may not be that important in the emperor's heart. Sooner or later, she, Nian Shilan, will become the most important person around the emperor.
After calming down, Concubine Hua turned around and looked at her exquisite self in the mirror, secretly cheering herself up in her heart. She touched her hair decorated with green jade, and when she turned around again, she was the graceful Concubine Hua again.
"Then what do you think I should do?"
Seeing that Hua Fei, who had been trained by her for many years, could now coax herself, Jinxiu was extremely satisfied. She took two steps forward and continued to give Hua Fei advice.
"My lady, that nanny just wanted to exchange some silver to save her son. I believe that from the moment she came to report the news, she was ready to face death, so this matter can only be told by her.
But who the recommender is is a very important issue.
That person cannot be you, the Empress, nor can it be our Nian Mansion. If we say it, the Emperor will overthink it and will inevitably think that this is a fight between you and the Empress."
As she spoke, Jinxiu looked at Hua Fei like a little fox, but the deeper meaning in her words was hidden too deeply, causing the not-so-bright trio of Hua Fei and her servants to not figure out the clue. There was no way, Jinxiu sighed in her heart and had to continue speaking.
"Isn't there someone in this harem who is still in the dark and doesn't know her own situation?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the three people of master and servant were all stunned, and Zhou Ninghai was the first to react.
"Like a noble man!"
"Like a noble person?" X2
Hua Fei and Song Zhi finally reacted at this time. After a moment of confusion, Hua Fei immediately came to her senses. Yes, that little bitch Ru Guiren was still wearing the musk beads bestowed by the Queen.
"Yes, how could I forget her? Then I..."
Hua Fei originally wanted to find an informant to tell Ru Guiren about this directly, but halfway through her words she seemed to have thought of something and looked at Jinxiu again.
Over the years, Jinxiu had helped her avoid plots many times, and she had long been accustomed to asking Jinxiu about anything that happened.
If she hadn't been so surprised by the news that she lost her mind, she wouldn't have suddenly forgotten to discuss it with Jinxiu.
Seeing Concubine Hua like this, Songzhi and Zhou Ninghai, who had the same idea as her, could not think of any good solution, and also looked at Jinxiu with inquiring eyes.
Looking at these three clear and stupid eyes, Jinxiu felt extremely tired, but she had to accept her fate as she had been assigned such a task.
She walked quickly to Concubine Hua's side, waiting for Songzhi and Zhou Ninghai to come closer with their ears tilted, before Jinxiu whispered her plan to the three of them.
"Your Majesty, we can't send someone directly to tell Noble Ru about this, otherwise the Emperor will be able to quickly find out that this matter is related to you.
We need to take a roundabout approach to this matter. The Nian Mansion immediately reported the news to the palace as soon as they got it. We should quickly send the news to the Nian Mansion while there is still time, and drive that nanny out of our Nian Mansion first."
Jinxiu's proposal made Hua Fei and the other two confused. There was no reason to throw away the evidence that they had obtained with great difficulty. She couldn't figure it out so she asked directly.
"Why?"
"This matter is a disgrace to the emperor after all. After all, it was the emperor who allowed the queen to take care of Queen Chunyuan's dragon fetus.
If this matter is exposed, it will not only be embarrassing, but also make everyone think that the emperor is confused and easily trusts others.
Even if others don't say it, people can't stop thinking about it, so even if our Nian government is regarded as a fool, we can't be the initiator.
Besides, we can still do something to drive that nanny out, it’s just a matter of spending more money.”
The words stopped here, and Hua Fei and her three servants understood what was happening. Hua Fei stood up and looked out the window with a serious expression.
"You're right. At this moment, we can only play dumb and not rush forward. Zhou Ninghai, has anyone outside known about the fact that Madam has taken refuge in the Nian Mansion?"
Zhou Ninghai really had no idea about this, so after Concubine Hua finished speaking, he quickly knelt down and apologized.
"Please forgive me, my servant is stupid and didn't ask these questions clearly before."
Concubine Hua also knew that she couldn't blame Zhou Ninghai for being careless, so she just frowned, waved her handkerchief, and gave instructions to Zhou Ninghai.
"Forget it. It's still early. Send someone back to the Nian Mansion to explain Jinxiu's intentions to father and brother. And this drama must be seen clearly by others, so that everyone knows that the man was chased out as soon as he entered our mansion. Then we must clean up our tracks and never let anyone else notice it."
After receiving the order, Zhou Ninghai stood up and ran out regardless of his inconvenient legs.
"I understand"
When Zhou Ninghai's words reached the Nian Mansion that day, Nian Gengyao felt troubled when he received the news.
In his opinion, there was really no need to go around in circles. Even if the emperor would be angry as his sister had told him, it would only be temporary. If he could make more contributions in the future, the emperor would forget about it after some time.
But after all, this was an idea from his own sister, and Nian Gengyao dared not go against her wishes no matter how unwilling he was. Besides, Nian Xiyao was also in charge in the Nian Mansion, so he did as she asked.
The nanny who came to the Nian Mansion before had come quietly at night. After they got the news, they went out to investigate and were very careful, so handling this matter was not as troublesome as Nian Gengyao imagined.
After Nian Xiyao learned about this, he took over the matter directly. He secretly asked the nanny to leave the Nian Mansion, and then used the nanny's son as a handle to carefully send the person to the Guwaljia Mansion.
In the palace, Concubine Hua originally wanted to have someone expose the matter as soon as possible, but was persuaded by Jinxiu.
"Your Majesty, the Guaerjia Prefecture just received the news, and we have already exposed the matter of Noble Ru. By then, they will definitely think that there is something fishy going on. So, we have to be patient about this matter and not rush it."
After hearing Jinxiu's words, Hua Fei had no choice but to endure it temporarily. It was not until the seventh year of Yongzheng's reign that Concubine Uya passed away, and then she exposed the matter.
In the side hall of Shoukang Palace, Guiren Ru was lying on the bed in a coma. Today was the seventh day after the death of Concubine Uya. No matter how she and the emperor were in their lifetime, the dead were the most important. Today, Yongzheng still brought the concubines in the harem to burn incense for her.
At this time, Ru Guiren fell asleep for some unknown reason.
It happened that the emperor had been feeling unwell in recent days, so when Li Dequan sent someone to call the imperial physician, it was Ye Tianshi who came to take Concubine Ru's pulse, and the musk beads were discovered in this way. At the same time, it was also discovered that Concubine Ru was injured and unable to have children.
