Sinister Ex-Girlfriend

In the middle palace, the imperial study room.

What happened in the harem yesterday has been spread throughout the court and the public this morning. Now the tables in the imperial study are piled with memorials from courtiers and remonstrances from the Imperial Academy. Many of the memorials here come from Nan in the imperial hall. The Southern faction is a die-hard faction headed by Nan Yushi. It has always been a group of people that gave Dongfang Yao the biggest headache. After the original owner ascended the throne, these old guys often caused trouble for him. Facing these elders of the two dynasties, they With the support of the Queen Mother behind her, Dongfang Yao could only endure it.

However, I didn't expect that the hands of these old guys were really long, and their nosy business came to the emperor's harem.

Looking at Jianben on the table who scolded him for being too tyrannical, Su Rui just smiled coldly, "What is tyranny? You guys don't even know what true tyranny is. You are just a group of old stubborns who think you are relying on your old age."

Dongfang Yao missed the old relationship and wanted to stabilize the Chao Gang, so he had to compromise with the people from the Southern Sect. But now that Su Rui has become Dongfang Yao, he doesn't care about the advice of these people. If it doesn't work, he will kill them all. So what?

"His Majesty."

Wang Yi, who was originally guarding the door of the study, quickly came to Su Rui's side, bowed his body, lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, someone is coming from Cining Palace. The Queen Mother invites you to come to Cining Palace together." meal."

Queen Mother?

"I'm very busy and don't have time."

Su Rui didn't have the slightest fondness for the current Queen Mother. The Queen Mother, who was widowed at a young age, has always had close contacts with relatives and influence, and has always wanted to influence the government. More importantly, she is not actually Dongfang Yao's biological mother, so the mother and son are naturally not of the same mind.

Hearing Su Rui's words, Wang Yi was not surprised. His Majesty has been too abnormal these days. Wang Yi, who has accepted too many surprises, has learned to be very calm.

Isn’t that just rejecting the Queen Mother? Isn't this what His Majesty has always wanted to do but never had the chance?

Wang Yi couldn't help but frown when he thought of the person in Cining Palace. He thought about how gentle, virtuous and considerate she was when the late emperor was still there. But after the late emperor passed away and entrusted the current majesty to her, she immediately It's as if she's a different person. She's ambitious all day long and forms cliques for personal gain. Why does she still want to be the empress?

After Wang Yi left, Su Rui casually read through a few chapters of memorials. When he saw a certain memorial by the Imperial Guards General, Su Rui's movements froze, and his eyes fell on a person's name.

Shen Shengbei.

He is Su Wan's fiancé in the original plot, and he is also the male protagonist of this world. This memorial is a letter from the general of the Royal Forest Army who intends to promote some of his outstanding guards, and Shen Shengbei is also included in this promotion.

Su Rui frowned and looked at it for a long time, and finally wrote the word "Zhunzou" on it.

As for the other memorials, without exception, they were all ignored by General Su...

Harem, Shangfu Bureau.

Such a big thing happened yesterday. Several people in the Shangfu Bureau died. Now there is a serious shortage of manpower. Master Liao is taking Yan Yunuo to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to look through the rosters of some new palace maids. She plans to select some good female celebrities. The little palace maid supplemented the manpower of the Shangfu Bureau.

"Xu Bingyue?"

In the roster of palace maids, Yan Yunuo was surprised to see Xu Bingyue's name. She got to know the little palace maid when she was in the Royal Hospital that day, and knew that she and Su Wan sent her to the Royal Hospital together. Later, she even told herself that her full name was "Xu Bingyue".

"Yunuo, do you know her?"

Hearing Yan Yunuo's voice, Master Liao turned around and looked at her and asked doubtfully.

"Back to Master Liao, the slave was infected with cold yesterday. It was she and Su Wan who sent the slave to the Royal Hospital together."

Speaking of this, Yan Yunuo couldn't help but think of Su Wan who was sent to Xinzheku, and his whole expression immediately became sad: "I don't know how Su Wan is doing there? She is not in good health. Do you know if you can endure it?"

Because the Shangfu Bureau was so busy today, Yan Yunuo didn't have time to meet with Chen Ji and didn't know how his affairs were going.

Hearing Yan Yunuo's worried words, Master Liao just sighed in his heart. Su Wan was also a good prospect, but he had offended His Majesty. Although he only said that he would be sent to Xinzheku for one month, if there was no word from His Majesty when the time was up, Who dares to let her out privately?

"Yunuo, everyone in this deep palace is like a rootless duckweed. Everyone has their own destiny. You just need to take care of yourself."

Master Liao could tell that Yan Yunuo was too kind-hearted and soft-hearted, so she would give her a few words of advice from time to time to prevent her from losing her life in the future because she did not trust others.

Hearing Master Liao's words, Yan Yunuo moved his lips but said nothing. She knew that Master Liao had his own way of doing things, but Yan Yunuo also had his own principles. She knew that Su Wan was punished like this because of her, and she had to find a way to rescue her no matter what.

"Since you know this Xu Bingyue, what do you think of her?"

Seeing that Yan Yunuo stopped talking, Master Liao turned his attention to the list of palace maids in his hand.

"Bingyue is very kind and enthusiastic, and a good girl."

Yan Yunuo thought of Xu Bingyue's face in his memory and couldn't help but say a few kind words for her.

"Since you think she's good, it's a good time to let her work with you instead of Su Wan."

Master Liao still had great trust in Yan Yunuo. Seeing Master Liao put a check mark on Xu Bingyue's name, Yan Yunuo also showed a happy smile on his face. At this time, Mother Yan would never have thought that in In the near future, Xu Bingyue will become her biggest enemy in her life...

Xin Zheku——

After staying in the room all morning with nothing to do, Su Wan simply took a stroll in the courtyard of Xinzheku. This place was different from the Huanyi Bureau. The palace servants of the Huanyi Bureau had to wash clothes in the yard every day, from morning to night. They can only stay in the same place, but most of the people in Xinzheku work outside, and they can only come back at night or when eating.

At noon, Xinzheku's courtyard was empty, and the withered yellow leaves were blown all over the ground by the autumn wind. The fallen leaves on the ground made the already lonely courtyard even more depressed.

Su Wan walked around the yard, and when she walked to the gate, she saw a sneaky figure looking outside Xin Zheku's door.

Su Wan frowned and didn't intend to pay attention, but at this moment, the little palace maid in blue at the door saw Su Wan's figure with sharp eyes, and immediately waved to her quickly, and whispered quietly: "Hello ! This sister, please speak further."

Su Wan:......

Can I pretend I didn't hear it?

"Sister! This sister!"

Seeing that Su Wan ignored her completely and turned around to go back, the little palace maid became anxious and looked around. She quickly rushed into the gate of Xinzheku, then pulled Su Wan hard and dragged her to the door. At the corner outside: "Sister, I have something I want to ask you about."

While she was talking, the maid had already put some broken silver into Su Wan's hand.

The monthly salary of Xinzheku's palace maids was only half of that of the lower-level palace maids. Although these scraps of silver were small, they regarded them as a windfall.

The palace maid in blue brocade was waiting for Su Wan to show her a flattering smile, but Su Wan just silently put away the money and looked at her with a faint look: "Ask you, I don't know much."

In fact, she knows nothing about the people in Xinzhekuli, okay?

Well.

The little palace maid reacted quickly after hearing Su Wan's words, and asked quickly: "Do you know that a new palace maid named Su Wan came to Xinzheku yesterday?"

Um?

Su Wan's eyes flashed when she heard her name, and then she nodded slightly: "I know."

"Then do you know why she entered Xin Zheku?"

The palace maid in blue asked again, as if she was afraid of being seen by others, her tone became faster and faster.

"I heard that I offended His Majesty."

Su Wan continued to answer unhurriedly, and took the opportunity to glance around the little palace maid. She was quite old, but she was wearing brocade palace clothes, and the headdress in her hair was also expensive. If Su Wan hadn't guessed If wrong, she should be the maid in charge of a certain imperial concubine, and this imperial concubine is most likely...

"Do you know why she offended His Majesty?" The questioning voice of the palace maid in blue interrupted Su Wan's thoughts.

"I don't know." Su Wan shook her head innocently: "She didn't say this, so we can't ask more questions."

Hearing Su Wan's answer, the palace maid in blue hesitated and took out some broken silver and stuffed it into Su Wan's hand: "Please help me find out why she was punished today. I will be here again at this time tomorrow. , if you can find out, I will definitely reward you generously!"

A generous reward?

Su Wan's eyes flashed: "Okay, I still don't know how to call you sister?"

"I?"

The palace maid in blue hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice: "You just call me Sister Wanxin. I'm going to leave first. You must remember what I entrusted you with! You'll still be here waiting for me tomorrow!"

While speaking, Wan Xin looked around with a guilty conscience, and then quickly walked away.

Wan Xin, the maid in charge of Xiuning Palace and one of the confidants of the Concubine Liang.

Su Wan stared at the direction Wan Xin left, thinking about the good concubine she had never met before——

Is she simply curious about the bloodshed in the harem when she specially sent someone to inquire about her? Or is it because he has a keen eye for recognizing talents and has set his sights on himself at this moment?

There is really no fuel-efficient lamp in Dongfang Yao's harem.
