Ruyi's Rebirth: Ruyi's Disease Retreat Retreat

Chapter 267: Concubine Xin frames Concubine Zhang; Ruyi advises Concubine Zhang

Zhang Changzai was also a simple-minded person. When she got such a piece of high-quality cloth, she asked someone to take it to make new clothes without saying a word.

On the day of the banquet, she got up early to wash and dress, thinking that she must outshine all the other beauties at the banquet and win the emperor's favor.

In Zhongcui Palace, Chun'er came in with a basin of water and woke up Concubine Xin.

"Master, guess what? The maidservant beside Concubine Zhang came to report that Concubine Zhang had used the cloth to make several new clothes, and she didn't take any of the jewelry given by the Queen."

Xinpin raised her eyebrows. What good things could she have seen when she came from a small family?

"Okay, stop making fun of her. What knowledge can a daughter from a small family have?"

Chun Er said as she combed her hair, "Yes, how can she compare to you, my master? When I gave her the cloth, her eyes widened."

Xinpin curled her lips and revealed a mocking expression: "Ah, it's really disgusting to serve the emperor with such a person."

Chun'er: "Yes, look at how shabby she is. I feel it's beneath my dignity to stand next to her. I don't know what the Emperor sees in her."

In Yikun Palace, Rong Pei was also helping Ruyi change her clothes.

Hai Lan came in and said, "Sister, the eunuch from the Imperial Household Department reported that the cloth was obtained by Zhang Changzai, and she has even made several new suits of clothes with it."

Ruyi: "Oh? It seems this Concubine Xin has some brains."

"She's more than just smart. She's also very scheming. She knew the fabric was useless, but she still gave it to Chang Chang Zai. It seems she wanted to get rid of Chang Chang Zai."

Ruyi nodded and said, "Rongpei, go and stop Zhang Changzai and ask her to change her clothes before going to the Qianqing Palace."

"Also, tell her that Concubine Xin wants to harm her." Hai Lan said.

Rong Pei responded and went out.

In the corridor outside Chengqian Palace, Rong Pei bowed to Zhang Changzai and said, "Hello, Zhang Changzai. The Empress has ordered you to have a moment to talk." As she spoke, she waved her hand, and the two young eunuchs behind her stepped forward and restrained Zhang Changzai's maid.

Zhang Changzai saw this and asked, "Aunt Rongpei, what are you doing?"

Rong Pei replied: "Don't be nervous, she was sent by Concubine Xin to monitor you."

"Also, you should change your clothes. The Ministry of Internal Affairs just sent a reply saying that you got this piece of cloth.

They were careless and gave this piece of cloth to Concubine Xin. This bright red color is not allowed to be worn by those below the rank of Empress."

Zhang Changzai was sweating profusely. She asked, "Is Concubine Xin trying to harm me?"

Rong Pei smiled and said, "I don't know what Xinpin is thinking."

Zhang Changzai: "Thank you, Empress Dowager, for the reminder, and thank you, Aunt Rong Pei. I will change it now and will never wear it again."

The banquet in the Qianqing Palace had already begun, but Zhang Changzai was still nowhere to be seen.

Xinpin stood up to greet Ruyi and offered a toast: "Your Majesty, I offer you a toast."

Ruyi held up the wine glass: "Sister Xinpin is so thoughtful."

After drinking, Xinpin looked around and said, "Why hasn't Sister Zhang Changzai come yet? This party can't be without her."

Ruyi raised an eyebrow and asked, "Perhaps something delayed you. By the way, Xinpin, someone from the Imperial Household Department came to report that they had taken the wrong piece of cloth. It was originally meant for me, but it was mistakenly sent to you. Do you still remember?"

Xinpin's heart skipped a beat. He was really bringing up something that was completely irrelevant.

"I haven't noticed it."
