Helian Qi dealt with the Wei mother and daughter and then went to Lingxue Pavilion with Ning Wanyin.
The other concubines also dispersed.
Wei Yingya was still somewhat dazed.
Wei Meiren died, and as a bonus, she took her mother with her.
Her great revenge had been achieved.a
Thinking back on every step of this scheme, Wei Yingya could only sigh and say, “You ancient people are really amazing.”
The only thing she could think of was to give the poem to the Emperor first. The result was that each side had its own version of events, and by then, the matter could only be left unresolved.
Although she had read many novels and watched many TV series, she only realized when she was actually in the thick of it that knowing the strategy was one thing, actually using it was another, and how the other party responded was yet another.
With her limited life experience, she was far inferior to the daughters of noble families who had grown up amidst the intrigue and power struggles of their time.
They were the ones who had truly mastered the rules and skills of survival in this era.
Otherwise, they might not have survived to this day.
How could she, a mere spectator in front of a screen, compare her methods to those of ancient people who grew up amidst the power struggles of the inner palace?
At this moment, Wei Yingya finally felt at peace.
Who hasn’t dreamed of being the protagonist?
But this is their era.
The people in the palace are indeed formidable.
She’s not as capable.
But it doesn’t matter; she won’t belittle herself. At least she has excellent judgment!
She chose the right side!
…
Jingxi Palace—
“Your Majesty, Wei Meiren is in trouble!”
Zhen Zhu hurried forward and reported what had happened in the Imperial Garden.
Shu Fei was surprised.
“She has repeatedly stolen things from Ying Meiren to compete for favor. She is so arrogant and foolish. I knew that something would happen sooner or later, but I never expected that she would be able to take advantage of His Majesty. She is really incredibly stupid.”
“Of course, it’s all over the palace now. Someone actually dared to steal the sacred texts…” Zhen Zhu chimed in.
Shu Fei pondered for a moment: “This scheme seems to be Ning Wanyin’s doing. I doubt even Ying Meiren has such skills… By the way, Ning Wanyin’s birthday is in a few days. Let our people give Wang Degui some advice.”
One of Wang Degui’s eunuch apprentices is a servant of Shu Fei.
He has some influence on Wang Degui.
“Ning Wanyin is the Emperor’s most favored concubine. His Majesty will surely attach great importance to her birthday. Why not suggest to His Majesty that Ning Wanyin’s mother be brought into the palace, granting them the privilege of a mother-daughter reunion…”
Shu Fei’s eyes were icy cold.
If she couldn’t do anything to Ning Wanyin, couldn’t she start with Ning Wanyin’s family?
When Ning Wanyin’s mother enters the palace, she will definitely send Ning Wanyin and her mother on their journey.
“This servant understands.” Zhen Zhu replied.
Shu Fei then said, “Have the head eunuch of Xianyin Pavilion come over tomorrow.”
Xianyin Pavilion is a stage in the palace.
When a concubine in the palace celebrates her birthday, His Majesty will grant her a special occasion by hosting a theatrical performance and banquet at Xianyin Pavilion.
Of course, ordinary concubines do not have such an opportunity.
Generally, it is the treatment given to those of high rank or favored concubines.
Shu Fei had made arrangements in advance, waiting for Ning Wanyin’s mother to enter the palace.
…
The next day at dusk.
The Emperor arrived at Mozhu Pavilion.
Since the Emperor’s birthday celebrations, Song Gu has submitted several memorials apologizing, saying that he had failed to properly educate his son, which had led to some trouble…
Song Chengyi also submitted several memorials to apologize.
Outsiders were unaware that they had once coveted the imperial concubine, but the father and son knew it all too well, and it terrified them.
But Helian Qi didn’t actually mind.
The concubines who were highly regarded by him were certainly not ordinary women. So what was so strange about someone wanting to propose marriage before she even entered the palace?
