The rebirth of a concubine: Gong Du will become the Queen Mother

Qiu Yu looked at her with worried eyes, and Jiang Shiying shook her head slightly.

After walking some distance, Qiu Yu asked: "My dear, what happened in the palace just now?"

She was standing guard at the door and heard the sound of the tea cup breaking inside. Then, the palace door opened and their queen came out.

Jiang Shiying said: "Don't worry, it has nothing to do with us. It's a matter of the previous dynasty."

To be more precise, it is a matter of the aristocratic family.

The letter that made Lu Zhaolin furious happened to be read to him by Jiang Shiying.

There was a Shi family in Fuzhou. The eldest son of the Shi family had a beloved young master who was the twelfth, so he was called Twelve Lang.

Shi Twelve Lang, who grew up among the rich and famous since childhood, lived up to expectations and became a dandy among dandies.

Suddenly one day, the elders in the family decided to take care of him and put him into a private school.

For some reason, he disliked a poor student in the government school and actually killed that student. According to the writing in the book, it was death from humiliation.

In the government school, the classmates who were students from a poor family went to the door of the Shi family to ask for an explanation, but they were beaten out with sticks.

The student had only a widowed mother. He asked someone to write a petition and handed it to the government office, but the government office refused to accept it.

She had no choice but to hit her head on the stone lion at the entrance of the government office.

Other students in the government school sat in silence at the gate of the government office, guarding the old woman's body, and asked the government office for an explanation.

Coincidentally, one of the imperial censors came back to his hometown to visit relatives and encountered these students sitting in meditation.

From this point on, the matter became a big deal.

The censor took the certificate from the students and handed it directly to the capital. Together with Zhezi, he handed it to the censor.

There are two copies of this statement.

One portion was in the hands of the student's widowed mother. It was already covered with her blood and was dazzlingly red.

The other copy was rewritten by those students and listed Shi's ten crimes.

The death of a poor student is just the most trivial of these ten crimes.

What really matters is the other two.

One is that the Shi family raised soldiers and made weapons privately.

The other article said that the Shi family annexed land and illegally settled farmland.

When the matter has reached this stage, it can no longer be settled by pushing Shi Twelve Lang out and confessing his crime.

When Jiang Shiying came out, she happened to hear Lu Zhaolin say: "Summon Linyou into the palace."

This matter will probably be handed over to Wu Desi for detailed verification.

Lu Zhaolin had long been dissatisfied with the aristocratic family, and he had used the Queen's affairs to repair the Song and Deng families not long ago.

Now, with the help of these students, Fuzhou can be repaired again.

Thinking about it all the way, I have returned to Xiangying Ju.

Jiang Shiying called A Yuan inside and told her about Shi in general.

A Yuan asked: "Do you want to intervene in this matter?"

"Where do I have that ability?" Jiang Shiying smiled: "I thought that at this time, the Shi family must be as anxious as ants on a hot pot, thinking of finding someone to help them. This whole city in the capital must be as anxious as ants on a hot pot. , who has the ability to pull them back?"

She said this, but she knew in her heart that no matter who it was, as long as she stretched out her hand, she could only die with the Shi family.

A Yuan and her looked at each other and understood instantly.

"I heard that the previous dynasty was asking the imperial concubine to be the imperial concubine. For the imperial concubine's family, this matter is nothing more than a trivial matter."

Jiang Shiying's eyes overflowed with smiles and she nodded slowly: "It's just that someone should tell the Shi family."

A Yuan said: "Don't worry, Madam, there will naturally be such kind-hearted people in the capital."

···

On the tenth day of September, the Holy Emperor returned to the palace.

That night, Lu Zhaolin did not enter the harem and rested alone in Ganquan Palace.

Jiang Shiying was about to let people turn off the lights and go to bed when she saw A Yuan enter the bedroom.

Qiu Yu went out to guard the door knowingly.

A Yuan walked to the bedside, and after bowing, he said: "The Shi family has already established a relationship with the imperial concubine's family.

Five days ago, someone saw more than a dozen large boxes being carried into the British mansion through the corner gate at night.

The box was carried out from the Shi family's house in the capital. "

Jiang Shiying asked: "Have any traces of our people been revealed?"

A Yuan shook his head: "Don't worry, Madam, they are all staying far away, be careful."

Jiang Shiying said: "Let them all withdraw. There is no need to interfere in this matter later."

She has received the news here, Wu Desi will only know earlier.

His Majesty is probably waiting for news from the British government.

The matter was now over, and there was no need for her to do anything more. She could only wait for the British government to seek its own death.

A Yuan nodded and said: "There is also the matter of Zhen Chongrong. Another news has been handed in."

Jiang Shiying raised her eyes slightly: "Oh?"

A Yuan said: "First, it's about Mu Furong.

Our people went to Yizhou, Zhenchongrong’s ancestral home, to check. In their old house in Yizhou, not a single hibiscus plant was planted.

According to the old servant guarding the house, hibiscus has never been planted in the house not only now, but also in the past ten or twenty years.

Our people also investigated Zhen Chongrong's maternal grandfather's house. Her maternal grandfather's house opened a medical clinic. Behind the medical clinic was the courtyard where she lived.

Not to mention hibiscus, there are no flowers or fruits planted in the yard, only medicinal herbs. "

Jiang Shiying frowned slightly, and Zhen Chongrong said that her mother loved hibiscus very much and she planted some at home. Could it be that she has another mother and another family?

She pondered for a moment and then said: "Continue."

A Yuan said: "Your Majesty, do you still remember that Yizhou happens to be the ancestral home of the Queen?"

Jiang Shiying nodded.

A Yuan added: "Zhen Chongrong was raised in Yizhou until he was three years old, and returned to his parents when he was three years old. Coincidentally, in the same year, the empress who had not yet left the cabinet followed her parents back to her hometown to worship her ancestors."

There must be some connection between the queen and Zhen Chongrong.

Jiang Shiying thought of what Zhen Chongrong had said to her before, "If a person who has received a favor does not repay the favor, he will be struck by lightning."

Could this person who should be struck by lightning from the sky be the queen?

She pondered for a moment and then said: "Continue to have people investigate in Yizhou. When Zha Zhenchongrong was three years old, something big happened in Yizhou."

Ah Yuan said "Promise" and was about to retreat when she stopped him again.

"In the palace, people are also watching Zhen Chongrong's movements."

···

Early the next morning, just after breakfast, someone called Concubine Fang and Concubine Ning to see them.

Jiang Shiying's brows twitched slightly. Ning Guifei often interacted with her, but this was the first time that Concubine Fang took the initiative to enter the Jingyang Palace.

"Please come in."

Not long after, Concubine Fang and Concubine Ning were introduced into Dongnuan Pavilion.

The two of them knelt down and saluted together: "I have seen Concubine Chen."

"You're welcome, please sit down." Jiang Shiying picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "Sister Fang is a rare guest."

Hearing her words, Concubine Fang immediately showed a wry smile on her face: "To be honest, my concubine, I came to your place today to avoid being lazy."
