Chapter 377: The plan begins, Meng Mu moves three times
"Sister, what you said makes sense. The Emperor does have some affection for Concubine Hua."
Only then did Concubine Jing wake up from the excitement of Concubine Hua's impending downfall. The pleasure of revenge made her almost forget that the Emperor might have some feelings for Concubine Hua.
What's more, they are all concubines. Does the emperor really want to see concubines fighting with each other?
"So now is the best time for us to take action. The emperor certainly doesn't want his child to be with such a traitor."
Fu Cha Zhixi looked at Concubine Jing and spoke meaningfully.
"I understand what you mean. I'll leave this matter to my sister."
Concubine Jing stood up and bowed respectfully to Fucha Zhixi.
"Don't worry, sister. I am on good terms with you, so I am willing to help you get what you want. Besides, it is better for Wen Yi to follow a concubine than a noble."
Fu Cha Zhixi reached out and pulled Concubine Jing up, then spoke with a smile.
While Fucha Zhixi and Concubine Jing were preparing for action, Concubine Cao and Zhen Huan were also thinking about how to get Wen Yi back from Concubine Jing.
Concubine Cao could not bear it any longer. She could not accept that the child she had given birth to at great risk called another person her mother, even though she was obviously Wen Yi's mother.
She must get Wen Yi back to her, no matter what the cost.
Now she has taken such a great risk to come forward and expose Hua Fei, which is almost a blatant betrayal of Hua Fei. Although Hua Fei has lost her power now, she is still the mistress of the imperial concubine after all. It should not be difficult for her to deal with a disfavored noblewoman like herself.
If it wasn't for Wen Yi, why would she take the risk? She didn't think Zhen Huan was a good person.
No matter how bad a woman is, she can't be that bad if she holds a high position in this palace.
"Now, Madam Wanpin has done everything you have told me to do. I wonder when you will fulfill your promise to me?"
Concubine Cao looked at Zhen Huan anxiously and asked.
"Don't worry, sister. I will definitely get Wen Yi back to you as soon as possible."
Zhen Huan naturally understood the purpose of Concubine Cao's visit today. She was confident that since she had helped the emperor so much this time, the emperor would definitely not refuse such a small request from her.
"Then I will wait for good news from you, Madam."
When Concubine Cao saw Zhen Huan so confident, she felt relieved.
"Sister, don't worry."
Zhen Huan stood up and looked at Concubine Cao and said.
After sending Concubine Cao away, Zhen Huan did not delay. Knowing that the Emperor was now reviewing memorials in the Yangxin Palace, she planned to go directly to the Emperor.
After all, the emperor had taken the initiative to let her get involved in state affairs, which gave her an illusion that she had the privilege of entering and leaving the emperor's Palace of Tranquil Longevity freely, so she went directly to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity without saying hello in advance.
But as soon as he reached the door, he was stopped by Su Peisheng.
"Empress Wanpin, it's really unfortunate today. The imperial concubine is in there right now, so the emperor may not have time to see you. Why don't you come back later?"
"So the Imperial Concubine is in there. This is my fault, but I brought some snacks that the Emperor likes. It would be a pity if the Emperor can't eat them. Can I trouble the eunuch to pass the message and let me deliver the snacks to the Emperor?"
When Zhen Huan heard that Fu Cha Zhixi was inside, she inexplicably felt as if her territory was occupied by someone else, which made her feel a little repulsive.
"this."
Su Peisheng knew that the emperor treated the imperial concubine differently, but he also valued Concubine Wan very much, which made him a little hesitant.
But after thinking about what happened last time, he decided to take the risk and go in to report it. As for whether the emperor would agree or not, that was up to the emperor.
"Then I will go and inform the Majesty."
Inside the Yangxin Palace, Fu Cha Zhixi was sitting aside reading a book, while the emperor was quietly reviewing memorials.
Although Fu Cha Zhixi was asked to serve the emperor with his writing materials, how could the emperor be willing to let Fu Cha Zhixi grind the ink for him personally?
Su Peisheng walked up to the emperor and spoke in a low voice.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Wan requests to see you."
Upon hearing this, Fu Cha Zhixi raised his eyes to look at the emperor and snorted.
Zhen Huan knew that she was inside, but still insisted on coming in. This was clearly a provocation to her.
Although she didn't like to initiate conflicts, she would not resist the other party if they came to her door.
Besides, there was a high probability that Zhen Huan came here to talk to the Emperor about Wen Yi. If Zhen Huan was allowed in, her plan would fail.
So no matter what, she would not allow Zhen Huan to come in at this time.
"It seems that the emperor has an appointment with a beautiful lady. I guess I am no longer needed. I will leave now so as not to disturb the emperor."
The emperor couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this.
"I only have an appointment with you. If you leave, where can I find another beautiful woman to accompany me?"
"Humph, if His Majesty wishes that all the sisters in the palace be His Majesty's beauties, then they would naturally be better companions than me."
There was a strong hint of jealousy in Fucha Zhixi's tone, but it sounded very pleasant to the emperor's ears.
"You always like to be jealous."
"Let Wanpin go back. I am not free right now."
The emperor remembered Zhen Huan's previous contributions and was not too heartless. He added.
"I will go to her palace to see her when I am free."
"Yes, slave, go right away."
After a while, Su Peisheng came out with an embarrassed look on his face.
"The Emperor said that he doesn't have time to see the Empress right now, and will visit her when he is free in the future."
"In that case, I will go back first."
Zhen Huan could hardly keep the smile on her face. She didn't expect that the Emperor would be so disrespectful to her and would not let her in just because the Imperial Concubine was inside.
"Mom, walk slowly."
Su Peisheng looked at Wanpin and spoke with a smile.
After seeing off Concubine Wan, Su Peisheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
With these two favorite concubines competing for the top spot, a small character like him can easily become cannon fodder. It won't be good if he plays too important a role, and it won't be good if he plays too lightly. It's difficult.
Inside the palace, after reviewing the memorials for a while, the emperor couldn't help but look at Fu Cha Zhixi and said.
"What book are you reading?"
"I am reading Biographies of Women."
(The Biographies of Women selects and records the stories of 110 women, including the story of Meng Mu's three moves.)
"Oh, is it so?"
"Why did you think of watching this?"
The emperor looked at Fu Cha Zhixi curiously and asked.
"I read all kinds of books. I just happened to come across this one today. I found it interesting so I read on."
Fucha Zhixi chuckled, looked at the emperor and spoke.
"tell me the story."
The emperor spoke.
"I just read the story of Meng's mother moving three times, and I think the environment has a great impact on people. If Meng's mother had not moved three times and settled down next to the academy, Mencius might not have achieved what he has today."
Fu Cha Zhixi closed the book and spoke with emotion.
