The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 336 Killing two birds with one stone

On the second day of the banquet in the palace, the concubines from the East Palace came to pay their respects to the Crown Princess as usual. The Crown Princess Cao Fengtong was so stunned by the Crown Prince Zhao Bi yesterday that she couldn't sleep all night. She tiredly said a few perfunctory words to a room full of female relatives, and then ordered everyone to leave.

Down.

After the concubines left the main hall in twos and threes, Zhou Qing stepped forward and said, "I have something I want to discuss with the crown princess."

Among the crowd of female relatives in the East Palace, what Cao Fengtong hated the most was Zhou Qing, the charming and charming master who had always been disrespectful to her. It was only because Zhao Bi supported her that Cao Fengtong was more tolerant of her.

In fact, the two women, who serve the same husband together, are already in the same boat.

When Cao Fengtong saw Zhou Qing speaking, she glanced at Zhou Qing and said calmly: "Zhou Cainu had something to say, why didn't you say anything just now? Everyone has retreated now, and you came to find me in such a sneaky way. How come you are so sneaky?"

What happened?"

Cao Fengtong looked down upon Zhou Qing, and Zhou Qing, who had always been ambitious, also looked down upon Cao Fengtong. But today, she had a poisonous plot to harm others, so she reluctantly made an excuse with Cao Fengtong.

Zhou Qing had a smile on her face and said to Cao Fengtong: "I know very well that the Crown Princess has always hated me, but since you and I serve His Highness the Crown Prince together, we are a family. Now my sister knows the situation in the court better than I do."

In the chest, my sister understands the situation of His Highness the Crown Prince better than I do. In the final analysis, we are all grasshoppers on a vine. If the King of Jin really gets the upper hand, the entire East Palace will be buried with him, don’t you think?"

After all, Cao Fengtong was trained by Empress Cao herself, and her temperament is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary people. Although she agreed with Zhou Qing's words in her heart, without knowing what Zhou Qing wanted, Cao Fengtong still maintained a steady air and said:

"If word of Zhou Cainu's treason and treason spreads out, won't you be afraid that the queen and the prince will punish you?"

After hearing this, Zhou Qing laughed and said, "Sister, what's the point of this? Don't hold it against me."

After hearing this, Zhao Bi's face suddenly turned cold and asked, "Why did she refuse?"

Cao Fengtong was too lazy to waste any more time with Zhou Qing. He flicked his sleeves and said, "That's all, go down. I don't want to hear any more nonsense from you. Last time you pissed off the heir apparent of the Li family, I wanted to kill you. Please remember."

Lesson learned, don’t engage in disputes anymore, otherwise even if His Highness protects you, I will never let you go."

Zhou Qing exited the main hall with a strange smile on her face.

Since Zhao Bi met Jing Shu, he had been thinking about her heart and soul, and then he was instigated by Zhou Qing to make this poisonous plan.

She knew that Cao Fengtong would reject her proposal, but this played right into her hands.

Cao Fengtong looked coldly at the simple-minded Zhou Qing, and said with a disdainful smile: "I thought Zhou Cainu had some good ideas, but I never thought you were so stupid."

When it comes to the person whom Emperor Ming relies on the most, it is naturally the eldest princess.

After Wu Fengtong heard this, he raised his eyes to look at Zhou Qing and said, "Does Zhou Cainu have any clever ideas that can help His Highness?"

Zhou Qing knew Zhao Bi too well. With his temperament, he would not let go since he had taken a liking to Jingshu. Being able to use this to harm Jingshu and alienate him from the Crown Princess was killing two birds with one stone.

Zhou Qing argued: "It's normal for ladies to come and go in the palace. I'm afraid my sister's words are a bit alarmist."

Emperor Ming lost his mother when he was young, and relied on the protection of his elder sister, the princess, to successfully ascend the throne. Even after all these years, the two siblings still have a close relationship.

The eldest princess didn't even sell Queen Cao's favor. If this princess was so easy to win over, she, Cao Fengtong, would have gone to win over her long ago. Why would she still need to sit here and wait for death?

Cao Fengtong rolled his eyes at Zhou Qing: "His Highness has just been impeached, and we are brazenly entertaining Mrs. Li Ling in the East Palace. Do you think that His Majesty and the courtiers are fools? Are you not giving others a handle and putting His Highness even more at a disadvantage?"

Zhou Qing lowered her eyes and replied aggrievedly: "I told the Crown Princess that I would invite Mrs. Shen to talk to her, so that I could win over Li Ling and help you achieve your goal, but the Crown Princess scolded me instead."

Had a meal."

After hearing Zhou Qing's words, Cao Fengtong was worried that she would ruin her aunt's plan by acting rashly, so she hurriedly asked: "What do you want to do?"

As she spoke, she shed tears of grievance and said, "The Crown Princess scolded me for not knowing what I can do, and asked me to stop interfering in your affairs. She also said that if I interfere in this matter again, you will protect me.

She will also kill me with a stick."

As he said that, Cao Fengtong rolled his eyes at Zhou Qing and said disdainfully: "Don't tell me that your clever plan to relieve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's worries is to win over the eldest princess."

Cao Fengtong sneered and said: "The person most trusted by the Holy One is naturally Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess. Everyone knows this, so why do you need to show off here?"

She looked at Cao Fengtong, pointed outside and said, "Sister, believe it or not, the memorial on the Emperor's desk to impeach His Highness the Crown Prince for not participating in the palace banquet without any reason last night is thicker than the snow under this wall."

Seeing that Wu Fengtong was moved, Zhou Qing said slowly: "May I ask my sister, who is the person whom the Holy Father relies on the most?"

Zhou Qing replied with a smile: "Now is the winter solstice, why don't we use this excuse to hold a banquet in the East Palace, invite the wife of the eldest son of the Li family, talk to her about reason, and persuade her to persuade Li Ling to surrender to His Highness."

Luring Jingshu into the East Palace was just because Zhao Bi wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to do evil things.

At night, Zhao Bi came to Zhou Qing's side hall again and asked, "Have you gone to talk to the Crown Princess today?"

Seeing Cao Fengtong's attitude, Zhou Qing was not anxious or annoyed. She said slowly: "The eldest princess has always rejected people from thousands of miles away. It is naturally not easy to win over her, but we can do it with her beloved son Li Ling and his wife.

Give it a try, and if you can hold them both, you won't have to worry about the eldest princess not siding with His Highness."

Zhou Qing pouted and replied: "I have already told the Crown Princess about this, but she flatly rejected it."

What Zhou Qing said was a clever plan, but Empress Cao had already thought of this method. However, Empress Cao was always cautious in doing things, and she wanted to capture Li Ling and his wife in a hurry.

Zhao Bi gave people the power for no reason, so the Jin royal party would not miss this good opportunity to attack the prince. Although the prince committed nothing major this time, even for such small mistakes, he was impeached again and again.

, as his reputation continues to decline, the position of the prince will no longer be guaranteed sooner or later.

When Zhao Bi heard this, he slammed the table with anger and shouted angrily: "What a princess, how can she be so ignorant of praise?"

Zhou Qing took the opportunity to fan the flames and said, "I couldn't bear the pain of lovesickness, so I wanted to take this opportunity to lure Shen into the palace. I never expected to be rejected by the Crown Princess so flatly. I really don't know what she was thinking.

Is she afraid that you will really be seduced by Mr. Shen? Or does she not care about your future at all?"

Zhao Bi's face was cold and he said in a cold voice: "Such a jealous woman is not worthy of being an orphan's concubine."
