The charming empress is too good at fishing, and the ruthless emperor has fallen

"Oh? Really? I alone make the imperial concubine exhausted mentally and physically. I don't know how many times I have had trouble with the emperor, but she actually chose more beauties? Will she really not be so jealous that she will go crazy in the future?" Jing Shu seemed to think about this. Not only did he not have any sense of crisis, he was even in a joking mood.

"It seems that my sister is not worried at all that these newcomers will usurp the throne and fall out of favor." Concubine Ning raised her eyebrows, but she did not expect her to have such a good attitude.

"When I was in the East Palace in the past, I never received any favor, and I never thought about competing for favor. You also know this sister, but it is different now. Since I have embarked on this path, naturally I am sure that I can firmly capture the heart of His Majesty. Besides, there are just a few newcomers, no matter how charming and beautiful they are, they may not be able to take away my favor." Jing Shu said quite confidently.

"My sister is so broad-minded. It seems that I have done something unnecessary today." The smile on Concubine Ning's face froze slightly.

"How could it be? Sister came here today just to use these portraits to hit me, so that I would give up and give up on cooperating with Eunuch Cui?"

Jing Shu didn't want to continue to quarrel with Concubine Ning, so she directly explained the purpose of Concubine Ning's visit today, "It's just Concubine Ning, there is absolutely nothing I can't do if I want to do it.

"Instead of trying to persuade me to give up, why don't you join me and let's work together to defeat Concubine Xie? Not only can we restore peace to the harem, but we can also avenge Eunuch Cui's deep hatred, okay?"

She is very persuasive.

The smile on Concubine Ning's face suddenly turned cold.

"Since you know my purpose of coming today, you should also know that it is impossible for me to agree. I don't know how you learned about Hua Zhang's private affairs, but I warn you that you'd better not threaten him with these things. ! Otherwise, I will definitely not let you go!"

Saying this in a cold tone, Concubine Ning stood up and planned to leave.

"What if I threaten my sister and insist on cooperating with me?" However, Jing Shu's voice behind her was like a nail, immediately stopping her from taking another step, "My sister and Eunuch Pei have a really good relationship. After marrying into the East Palace, Eunuch Pei left the palace out of love and stayed with his sister to take care of her personally.

"Such a touching love, if the Holy One knew about it, I wonder if he would be angry?

"But at the beginning, Zhang Zhaoyi was just having fun with the palace maids, which was regarded as a betrayal by the Holy One. The Holy One would never allow others to get involved in the things that belong to him, even if he left them aside. So...the Holy Lord may not move my sister for the sake of the eldest princess, but I am afraid he will kill Eunuch Pei in a rage."

Jing Shu felt that her tone at this moment must be mean and she deserved a beating.

Because Concubine Ning and Pei Shanyu both showed the expressions of those who wanted to kill someone.

It was obvious that the person they wanted to kill was her.

Seeing the two pale faces, Jing Shu suddenly smiled sweetly.

She also stood up and came forward, took Concubine Ning's arm intimately, and said in a friendly tone: "Sister Concubine Ning, please don't be angry. Sister knows how to behave. As long as sister is willing to listen to sister, I will never go out and talk nonsense about this kind of thing. .”

Concubine Ning looked at her sharply and suddenly moved her lips.

However, Jing Shu took the lead and said:

"Sister wants to ask me how I know this? After all, the name Pei Shanyu is not his. He replaced someone else's name and used someone else's identity. It is difficult for even the Holy Spirit to find anything, but since I know it, Naturally, it has been investigated and we have evidence in hand."

After saying that, Jing Shu winked at Concubine Ning rather playfully.

Although everything was made up by her.

I haven't checked at all, there is no evidence, I just accidentally ate melon when I was in the East Palace.

But that didn't stop her from using this to threaten Concubine Ning and force her to change her mind.

After all, Concubine Ning owed Pei Shanyu a lot and would never let him lose another life for her.

Jing Shu didn't mind saying more to make Concubine Ning give up her struggle completely.

"Although the Fanyang Lu family is not as good as Xie and Cui, a big family that has lasted for hundreds of years, and has become increasingly declining in recent years, at any rate, our ancestors also produced two famous ministers. The son of the Lu family suffered a severe love brain attack and gave up his responsibility. I started a good family and had a heavy responsibility, followed you into the palace, and became an eunuch... It's really touching."

"So what if you know? I can enter the palace and become a eunuch for her, but I can also give up my life for her! If I die, what else do you threaten her with?" Pei Shanyu immediately reacted fiercely.

"That depends on whether Sister Ning Fei is willing to let you die, right?" Jing Shu looked at Concubine Ning.

Concubine Ning closed her eyes.

Soon, her voice was extremely sure and calm: "I promise you!"

"Empress!" Pei Shanyu wanted to persuade her again.

"Yuan Xiuyi is right, I am not willing to let you die." Concubine Ning's eyes were extremely clear.

After saying that, she smiled softly at Pei Shanyu, "Don't be sad about this, I am not doing it all for you, but after weighing the pros and cons, I feel that it is not wrong to cooperate with Yuan Xiuyi and avenge Hua Zhang together. "

"Has your Majesty decided?" Pei Shanyu asked.

"Well, it's decided. You know me, once I decide something, I won't change it easily." Concubine Ning said calmly.

Seeing this, Jing Shu naturally smiled.

"I used to look down on you, but I didn't know you knew so many secrets. I'm really curious about how you know it. But since you don't want to tell me, I won't ask any more questions. This is based on our cooperation. Mutual sincerity and due trust.”

Concubine Ning looked at her, "But if there is another time and you use this kind of threat to force me, I promise that I would rather fight you to the death and make you lose everything than let you have your way again." As one wishes."

"It's natural." Jing Shu didn't care what she said, "If it weren't for cooperating with Eunuch Cui, I would never say a word to anyone about what I said just now.

"Also, tomorrow night is the first day of the new concubine's canonization. According to the palace's practice, the Holy Emperor has to renovate the brand of the concubine. Why don't you think about it now, how to make the Holy Emperor change his mind and order you to sleep with him!"

Not long after, Concubine Ning left Yicui Palace.

Only then did Xiu Qing come in from outside.

Seeing Jingshu with a satisfied smile on her face, she was sitting there admiring several pictures of beauties placed in front of her. When she went over to take a look, she saw her name written on it, where she was from, who her father was, what official position she was in, and what her origins were. Family and stuff like that.

"Your Majesty is so happy. Is it because Concubine Ning agreed to cooperate with you?" Xiu Qing asked.

"Not bad." Jing Shu said, pushing the portraits on the table and saying, "Take them and burn them."

"My slave obeys the order." Xiu Qing was full of doubts, but he still obeyed and picked up the portrait and went out.

The next day's palace election was exactly as Concubine Ning said.

This was the first general election after Lu Zan ascended the throne. All qualified daughters of officials from various places were sent to the palace. It took more than a month of selection to get to this point.

Lu Zan finally selected nine people from among fifty people, and assigned different positions according to their family background, talents and appearance.

Among them, the highest-ranking concubine is Cui's daughter. It is said that she is the most outstanding-looking person in this draft, and she is also the cousin of Concubine Xie.

The Holy Spirit praised her for having the noble temperament of Tsinghua University when Concubine Xie was young, and even gave her the title "Hua Concubine".

There are also one Liangdi, Shunyi, Guiren, and Meiren, two talented people, and two Changzai.

Basically, Concubine Ning guessed correctly that all the beauties in the portraits she gave Jingshu were chosen.

In just one day, the harem suddenly became full and lively.

In the evening, pairs of eyes stared at the emperor.

The old people are curious and the new people are looking forward to it. Everyone wants to know, whose sign will be turned over tonight? Could it be the Cui daughter who was named Hua Concubine in one fell swoop?
