After redemption, he took away the luck of the future queen

"Okay, everyone, please leave. I have to go back to class. Concubine Le, please send Concubine Cui back. Concubine Sang, take your bird's nest away."

Gu Jianli's face was filled with anger. He had never eaten the bird's nests brought by Concubine Sang. He always gave the bird's nests she brought to his servants as rewards.

Facing Gu Jianli, Concubine Sang tried her best to put on a smiling face, but Gu Jianli turned a blind eye. She was so angry that she threw down her sleeves and walked away, writing all her emotions on her face without hiding it, that is, because of the queen. The empress supports her, otherwise Gu Jianli would not be so spoiled to her.

Concubine Le concubine happily sent Concubine Cui back to the courtyard. As soon as she returned to her own courtyard, the personal maid asked her coldly: "Concubine, are you committed to the things assigned to you by the Fuguo Bus?"

Concubine Leshu was stunned when she heard this, and with a solemn face she asked the maid who had been placed beside her by the public security officer.

"Just now in His Highness's bedroom, you heard Concubine Sang say that your young lady is seriously ill and will not live to be twenty-five years old. How do you want me to tell His Highness this?"

"I don't care, my servant. This is your business. I'm just reminding you not to forget the promise you made before entering the prince's palace."

Privately, the maid was not afraid of Concubine Le, and her tone of voice when speaking to Concubine Le was also a commanding tone, which made Concubine Le very annoyed.

"I can't do it. Didn't you listen to His Highness? He can't make the final decision on Prince Rong's marriage. The only ones who can make the decision are the Emperor and the Queen. Even if I mention this matter to His Highness, His Highness will stand in my way."

Concubine Leshu was willing to take risks and felt that she could slowly escape from the control of Duke Fu through this matter.

Hearing this, the maid's face darkened, ignoring the difficulty of the matter, and her tone became more severe: "Concubine, you don't do things for Duke Fu, but you enjoy the benefits brought to you by Duke Fu's mansion. How can there be such a thing in the world? Good things, if you want to get the benefits, you have to pay the corresponding price.”

"What benefits did Duke Fuguo's mansion give me?" Concubine Le Shu looked at the maid suspiciously.

If it goes as planned, as soon as she enters the prince's palace, Fuguo Gong should establish relations for her father. Her father has not been able to move forward from the fourth-grade official position for many years. Fuguo Gong should let her father's official position be promoted. First level, but Duke Fu has not fulfilled his promise. She now suspects that Duke Fu is tricking her into entering the prince's palace.

The maid looked fierce and squeezed out a sentence through her teeth: "Concubine, if Duke Fu had not sent you in personally, would you have had such a good life in the Prince's Mansion? Can you be favored by His Highness?"

"I didn't beg Duke Fu to do this, but Wang Qingzhu begged me to be her lobbyist, but her promise was not fulfilled."

Concubine Leshu was not afraid of the maid with a fierce look on her face. She added: "Let me ask you, what is the use of arguing with me here now? When I agreed to Wang Qingzhu, I didn't know that Wang Qingzhu had a brain disease. She was the one who deceived me. First, you go back to Duke Fu, listen to what Duke Fu said, and then come and talk to me."

Concubine Le's attitude was firm and reasonable, and the maid had nothing to do. She just obeyed orders. She had no idea that the young lady's health had such a big problem and that it was known to everyone.

When things got to this point, how could Gu Jianli still turn a blind eye? The moment Concubine Leshu's maid left the Prince's Mansion, she was targeted by the Iron Blood Guards, and she never appeared in the Prince's Mansion or the Fu Guogong Mansion again.

Duke Fu was very angry and sent someone to investigate the whereabouts of the maid who had escaped from his control.

Gu Jianli sent someone to take Concubine Leshu's maid away, and specifically left clues for Duke Fu to facilitate his search.

Without much effort, Duke Fu found out the result he didn't want to see. A maid next to Concubine Leshu was captured by a beggar on her way back to Duke Fu's mansion and was taken as his daughter-in-law, and she disappeared.

Duke Fu was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, so he ordered someone to contact another maid next to Concubine Leshu. Only then did he know that this maid had an affair with the guards of the prince's palace and had already been beaten to death by the guards of the prince's palace. .

The two maids were gone, and he could not communicate smoothly with Concubine Le Shu.

When he thought of Concubine Le Shu and Concubine Sang being on the same page in the prince's palace and fighting fiercely, Duke Fu had a vague feeling that his people were eliminated by the queen's people.

Being able to guess such a possibility, there is no doubt that it was Gu Jianli's hand. Duke Fu Guo didn't even dare to let out a fart and didn't dare to confront the queen directly.

In addition, the condition of granddaughter Wang Qingzhu was spread by unknown sources, making it known to everyone. Wang Qingzhu's hope of becoming the princess of Rongjun was lost.

However, the granddaughter was not willing to give in. She used her illness to argue that she must marry Prince Rong before she died. After all, she was the granddaughter he had doted on for more than ten years. Duke Fu could not bear to see his granddaughter suffer from illness and feel depressed. He looked both distressed and anxious.

On this day, the empress assigned an imperial doctor with superb medical skills to the Fuguogong Mansion to diagnose and treat Wang Qingzhu. Naturally, the Fuguogong would not refuse the queen's kindness, so he invited the imperial doctor into the Fuguogong Mansion and asked the imperial doctor to treat his granddaughter. heal.

After the imperial doctor checked Wang Qingzhu's pulse, he diagnosed that Wang Qingzhu had a brain disease and said there was nothing he could do.

Duke Fu was completely disappointed because his granddaughter's illness could not be cured.

Unexpectedly, the little eunuch carrying the medicine box for the imperial doctor suddenly appeared in front of him and whispered something in his ear. After hearing this, Duke Fu's eyes lit up and he immediately nodded in agreement, and then sent the imperial doctor and the little eunuch away. After leaving, he called his son to the study to discuss business.

"Dad, are you saying that the queen used the position of Princess Rongjun and a concubine as a bargaining chip to allow dad to support the entry of the queen's uncle Sang Zhongquan into the cabinet and to get rid of the child in Concubine Cui's belly?"

The prince of Fuguo was greatly surprised. He felt that the conditions proposed by the queen were obviously more beneficial to the Sang family, and the Duke of Fuguo's house obviously suffered a loss in this transaction.

"Yes, you don't agree?" Seeing the shock and suspicion on his son's face, Duke Fuguo felt unsure, and said: "Jinzhu is fourteen years old, and with the new year and hairpin turned, he can be the princess of Rongjun, and Qingzhu is the side. Concubine, why don’t you agree to such a good thing?”

The prince of Fuguo frowned: "Father, no matter how good Duke Rong is, he is the prince's biological brother, but in the end he is just a county prince, not..., not that, it is not worthy of Duke Fuguo's house to give up two legitimate daughters and marry him. If you want to send Qingzhu to Rongjun Prince's Palace as a concubine, your son agrees, but why don't you send Jinzhu to the Prince's Palace? If Jinzhu gives birth to a son in the future, the Fuguo Palace will not have no chance. .”

Duke Fu shook his head and disagreed with his son's view, and retorted: "With the queen here, do you think the queen can let the prince's other concubines give birth to a son? Even if Jinzhu really entered the prince's palace, the queen would not let her give birth to a son. The prince’s child, I don’t know if the child in Concubine Cui’s belly is a boy or a girl. It’s hard to take action. The queen wants to use my hand to get rid of her now. You should know how firm the queen’s determination is. Since we have caught If you can’t hold on to the prince’s end, it’s better to hold on to Prince Rong’s end, so as not to lose both ends.”

The prince Gu Jianli was a stepson to the queen. Therefore, the queen thought that her grandson must have a bloodline from the Sang family. Otherwise, how could the queen endure it?

This was something that everyone could guess, and he didn't believe that the emperor or Gu Jianli couldn't guess it.

Concubine Leshu was his. She was in the prince's palace and got the favor of the prince. She had many opportunities to get close to Concubine Cui. Apart from the child in Concubine Cui's belly, it was not something she could easily capture. As for Sang Zhongquan's entry He did not have the final say on the matter of the pavilion. The final decision rested with the emperor. If he did not jump out to object, it would be a great honor to the queen.

This transaction is a sure profit for the Fuguo government.

As for the fate of Concubine Leshu, he had never thought about it. Concubine Leshu was just a pawn of his. If she lost her, he could install another one. It was not a big deal.

After Duke Fu's analysis, the prince also found himself in trouble and felt that it was not worthwhile to reach such a deal with the queen.
