Chapter 1259 Passing
Author: Loeva
Chu Liangyuan considered telling Mrs. Chu Zhengfang what the prince said, because her situation was obviously affected by what the couple did. If they didn't restrain themselves, the prince would not really favor her, and her plan would be difficult to implement.
!
But she didn't dare.
The prince had clearly told her not to say anything. She had no way to guarantee that after Chu Zhengfang and his wife learned the truth, they would hide it so much that they never knew about it, but suddenly they knew their mistakes and were able to change them. To put it simply, it was Chu Liangyuan's love for Chu Zhengfang
The couple's acting skills are not very confident. If they arouse the prince's suspicion, her good impression in front of the prince may be greatly reduced. She was just using Chu Zhengfang and his wife, why would she risk offending the prince for them?
Risk? Although the prince's concerns about Chu Zhengfang have now affected her situation, as long as Chu Zhengfang and his wife commit suicide, but she herself remains innocent and does not collude with the Chu family, then the prince will still favor her afterwards.
Chu Liangyuan did not intend to tell Mrs. Chu Zhengfang the truth. At most, she would try to persuade her in other ways.
For example, right now, Mrs. Chu Zhengfang is excited about Chu Liangyuan's "acceptance" of her favor, and what she says is already a bit too much. Even if there are only three women from the Chu family in the room, plus two confidant maids, it is still a bit too much.
Chu Liangyuan's "mother" had already frowned, feeling that Mrs. Chu Zhengfang had gone too far. Chu Liangyuan stopped her cousin from continuing: "This is the East Palace, sister-in-law, carefully partition the walls to have ears! If the prince lets the prince
The concubine knows that you have said these words, so there is no need to expect anything!"
Mrs. Chu Zhengfang suddenly suffocated and calmed down a little. She began to realize that she was indeed a little hot-headed. In order to ensure that the Crown Princess could act in accordance with the arrangements of the couple, she did not know how much effort and care she had to expend.
How much pressure she was under. When the Crown Princess was in a bad mood, although she still met her often, she was not entirely friendly to her. She wanted to break up and leave more than once, but she could only endure it when she thought of her husband's plan.
That's all. Because of this, she was a little too excited when she saw that she no longer had to rely on the Crown Princess, and might even be able to counterattack the Crown Princess. In fact, Chu Yuniang had only been favored by the Crown Prince once, and was not pregnant yet.
She didn't give birth to a grandson yet. She was really excited too early.
However, Mrs. Chu Zhengfang still tried to cover up her fault: "It's okay, we are the only ones in the room, and I didn't speak loudly just now, so people outside couldn't hear me."
Chu Liangyuan said to her: "The Crown Princess rewarded me with two nuns who stared at me all day long. Although I have sent them away for a while, they may come back when. They have seniority in the palace.
I'm too shameless, and if I get close, the palace people may not warn me out loud. I have been frightened by them several times, but it's better for my sister-in-law to be more cautious! The Crown Princess is so kind to us, and we should be grateful.
"
Mrs. Chu Zhengfang laughed dryly, cleared her throat, and quickly changed the subject: "In short, you should treat the Crown Princess well in the palace, please His Highness the Crown Prince, and make sure His Highness the Crown Prince continues to favor you! Now is a good time! Crown Princess
She is in poor health, Chen Liangdi is grounded, Chen Liangyuan is pregnant again, the weather has turned colder, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince no longer has a bitter summer. You are almost the only favorite! If you don't take advantage of such a good opportunity to conceive your grandson as soon as possible, you would be so sorry
My family has worked so hard for you!"
Chu Liangyuan responded and paused again: "Are my grandfather, grandmother, and the others okay?"
Her "mother" twitched her lips, turned around, picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, not wanting to participate in such a topic.
Mrs. Chu Zhengfang replied: "Well, they live well in Tongzhou. Your grandfather had a slight cold a few days ago, but he has recovered. Recently, he has become obsessed with growing flowers. They seem to have given up.
A servant returned to the city, probably because he was concerned about your news, but he didn't dare to come to the Chu family to inquire, so he just stayed at home and did some cleaning work. If you are worried, I will have someone quietly call him over later and ask
I want to ask about the news about your maternal grandparents. Will I tell you when I come to the palace next time?"
Chu Liangyuan had already thought about it and deliberately showed a surprised expression: "Really? That's great! Sister-in-law, just wait a moment." She turned around and entered the inner room, and her confidant maid who had been waiting since childhood followed her in quickly. The master and the servant
It seemed that he was rummaging through boxes and cabinets, trying to figure out what he was doing. After a while, he came out and found a box in the hand of the maid.
Chu Liangyuan opened the box and showed it to Mrs. Chu Zhengfang: "This is the high-quality poria cream that His Royal Highness the Prince rewarded me with. It is the most nourishing and suitable for my grandparents. Can my sister-in-law deliver it to my two elders for me? I can't do anything now."
After leaving the palace, I can only fulfill my filial piety like this."
Mrs. Chu Zhengfang glanced at the box and put it away: "Okay, don't worry, I will definitely deliver the things!" These are all small things, as long as they can appease Chu Yuniang and be used by them, and she will be obedient, but
It's just a small gift, so what does it mean?
Chu Liangyuan was very satisfied when she saw this, but this was just the initial test, and the next step was the focus. She took out another letter from her sleeve: "This is the health prescription I asked the imperial doctor in the palace.
, which is suitable for my grandfather’s symptoms. Can my sister-in-law also carry it over for me?”
Mrs. Chu Zhengfang didn't think much and was about to take it, but Chu Liangyuan's "mother" stopped her: "No! There are rules in the palace. Female family members are not allowed to leave the palace with writing papers in private unless they have passed the clear road. Liang
If Yuan had said hello to His Highness the Crown Prince first, or even told the Crown Princess first, we would have carried it for you. But if you send the message quietly in private, that won't work!"
Mrs. Chu Zhengfang hesitated after hearing this. Chu Liangyuan hurriedly said: "It's just a recipe! If you don't believe me, you can open it and take a look. When my sister-in-law and mother leave the palace, the guards won't search them. If you don't tell, who will know?
You sent a letter for me?! If you can send Poria Cream, why can't you send a prescription?!"
That's of course because Poria Cream can be deceived in the name of Chu Liangyuan's gift to her mother!
But Chu Liangyuan's "mother" did not dare to take this risk. Unlike Mrs. Chu Zhengfang, she had been just the wife of a low-level official all her life. Even if she obeyed the arrangements of her husband and nephew, let Chu Yuniang, the cousin
She still felt uneasy when her niece entered the palace as her daughter who died in infancy. As time went by, she felt more and more that it was too dangerous to do so, and it might be the crime of deceiving the emperor! It would be better to commit fewer crimes, even if
If he is discovered by the nobles in the palace in the future, he will not be punished too badly.
Mrs. Chu Zhengfang was much bolder than this aunt. She took the "prescription" from Chu Liangyuan's hand with one hand, opened it and looked at it, and found that it was indeed a prescription in black and white. It was simple and there was nothing wrong with it.
In words, the prescription looked real, but it was a bit like Taishang. She didn't care whether Chu Liangyuan really got a good prescription or was fooled by the imperial doctor using Taishang. She had to take the medicine anyway.
It wasn't her, so she folded the prescription again and put it in her sleeve: "It's done, no one dares to search us, I will bring you the things and the prescription!"
Chu Liangyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After talking for a while, she expressed that she wanted to give her old maid a few words alone. Mrs. Chu Zhengfang smiled: "What? You can't trust me? You want this girl to send a message to your grandfather again? You are too much
You are looking down on me. What did I lie to you for?" She grabbed the maid she brought into the palace and said to Chu Liangyuan, "You can just give the orders here. Is there anything I can't listen to? Say it quickly.
Now that we’re done, it’s getting late and we’re leaving the palace.”
How could Chu Liangyuan really say what she really wanted to say to the maid in front of the Chu family?! In desperation, she could only tell the maid to go to her grandfather's house as soon as possible to meet the maid.
The servants who came from Tongzhou asked about the physical condition of my maternal grandparents. What happened to the cold earlier? Is it serious? And so on.
As long as this maid meets the people in her grandfather's house, takes out the letter, puts it over the candlelight and smokes it, she should be able to see the message she really wants to convey.
As Chu Liangyuan expected, this letter did reach the hands of the foreign businessmen who rented the Gu family's house. They also understood what she meant and felt quite regretful: "What's going on? We just treat her as if she is here."
The East Palace was established, but the favor was not accepted? Then what happened to the news we worked so hard to find out?!"
One of the accomplices said: "Maybe it's just a lie? But Chu has no need to lie to us. Since she said so, let's continue to wait for good news from her."
Another person had a different opinion: "It's not an option to wait like this. The prince can't get out of the house. Even if the Chu family succeeds, the prince's plan cannot go forward! We still have to find a way to release the prince from the captivity first.
Say it again!"
Others asked: "How to solve it? We have no truly credible internal agents in the court! Even if the Crown Prince has made some arrangements, it is not yet time to use them."
The man from before raised the letter in his hand and said, "No matter whether the Chu family is lucky or not, isn't she rumored to be quite favored? Maybe we can ask her to intercede for the crown prince?"
"No!" Everyone else objected to his suggestion. "The Chu family has finally achieved today's results with great difficulty. The plan has not even been revealed yet. If the prince is disgusted because of the plea, wouldn't it be harmful to the prince?"
All the efforts have been wasted?! It’s better to think of another way. Even if the prince can’t really be released from the confinement, as long as the officers and soldiers outside the palace can stop watching so closely, so that the prince can take advantage of the loopholes and leave the house without being known, that’s enough!"
So what should be done to achieve this goal?
Several people began to think hard, but they did not know that the person who had been responsible for monitoring them had quickly reported the news of outsiders entering the Gu family's house to the Imperial City Secret Intelligence Department. Soon, Zhao Mo knew about it.
The people from the Secret Intelligence Department cleverly picked up the girl when she left the Gu family's house. The girl was originally a waiter in the inner house. No matter how smart she was, she was not alert to the spies from the Secret Intelligence Department and didn't notice anything was wrong at all. That was it.
He took the person outside the Chu family's mansion.
When the people from the Secret Service tried to find out, it was no longer a secret that the maid had once served Chu Liangyuan and was now working as a servant for Mrs. Chu Zhengfang.
They quickly reported the news to Zhao Mo, who happened to get the latest investigation results from Zhao Qiong.
Grandma Lu Si did have a source of information in the Chu family, but it was not that lady from the Chu family, but a little girl next to her who had just been promoted to the second class and had adopted a mother-in-law from the Chu family as her godmother. That mother-in-law
She had served Chu Liangyuan in the past. It was said that it was a dowry brought by Chu Liangyuan's mother from her natal family. It was very decent. Therefore, she wanted to know about Chu Liangyuan's situation in the palace and the female relatives of the Chu family who had entered the palace.
, I would always say a few words to her.
This woman and this girl are all people who have served Chu Liangyuan? Is this really a coincidence?
