Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1078 Zhen Huan Enlarged to 4

When Concubine Duan made a move, Jiang Xinxin realized that there was a thorn planted by someone else in Jingren Palace. Even if it was just a little palace maid doing cleaning chores in the back hall, this move undoubtedly slapped Jiang Xinxin in the face.

Jianqiu's face became even uglier, because although it was Jiang Xinxin who ordered the matter, it was she, the chief housekeeper of Jingren Palace, who did it. Such a big mistake happened in Jingren Palace, it would be strange for her, the chief housekeeper, to have a good face.

"Your Majesty, let's..." According to Jianqiu, they wanted to get rid of the little palace maid.

Jiang Xinxin also meant this, and ordered with a dark face: "Give her to Concubine Duan as a first-class maid, and then report to the Yangxin Palace. I will not help Concubine Duan to turn around this matter."

Jianqiu understood what Jiang Xinxin meant, and took people to Yanqing Palace with great fanfare. When others asked, she said that the little palace maid was very clever and skillful, and Concubine Duan had been ill for a long time and could not get up, so she needed such a lovely person to serve and take care of her!

After receiving the news, Nian Shilan obviously remembered that when Concubine Duan was in the palace, a bowl of safflower soup killed her six-month-old child. Concubine Cao, who was forced to come to listen to the lecture, quickly took the opportunity to divert Nian Shilan's attention: "Your Majesty, I thought Concubine Duan lived in Yanqing Palace for a long time and was slow to understand the affairs of the six palaces. Who would have thought that she could reach into Jingren Palace."

Nian Shilan felt that Concubine Duan had brought shame to Jingren Palace, but this was actually a way for her to vent her anger. At the same time, Cao Guiren's reminder made her feel that Concubine Duan was very scheming. She didn't care that Cao Guiren was still present, and she took Songzhi's hand and went straight to Yanqing Palace, where she punched and kicked Concubine Duan for a while, venting her anger.

Concubine Duan thought she had gained some power in the palace because the emperor finally remembered her, but she didn't expect that Nian Shilan would beat her down with a beating. She couldn't help but defend herself: "Think about it, if it was really me who harmed you, why would I personally serve you a bowl of safflower soup?!"

Nian Shilan wouldn't listen and Songzhi wouldn't try to persuade her to calm down. When Nian Shilan thought of the little prince who was already in a bad condition, tears started to flow.

Raising her hand to wipe away her tears, Nian Shilan gritted her teeth and cursed: "I was wrong to trust you back then. You deserve this fate today!"

Looking at Nian Shilan's graceful back, Concubine Duan lay on the bed feeling discouraged. The first-class palace maid who was sent here with great fanfare by Jianqiu had been renamed Ruyi after Jixiang. The child was still frightened and had witnessed Nian Shilan beating Concubine Duan with her own eyes, so she didn't dare to come forward to do anything.

Fortunately, Jixiang had gained experience over the years, and he swiftly arranged for Concubine Duan to be settled. He then told Ruyi to quickly clean up Yanqing Palace, and then he hurried to help Concubine Duan make medicine.

Of course, the movements in Yanqing Palace could not be hidden from anyone. Nian Shilan went to Yanqing Palace, and almost all the six palaces knew what had happened inside.

In Jingren Palace, Jianqiu was reporting something to Jiang Xinxin: "Time is tight. I have only found out that although Yanqing Palace looks deserted, in fact, whether in the former residence or in Yanqing Palace now, Concubine Duan has never been short of her monthly allowance."

"There is also the first-class palace maid named Jixiang. She looks a little simple, but I think if Jixiang is really simple, then she is Concubine Duan's shield."

Jiang Xinxin carefully checked Yixiu's memory and found that whether she was in the Qiandi or in the palace, she had never deliberately taken care of Concubine Duan. So when she was in the Qiandi, it must have been Uya's people who secretly helped Concubine Duan, and now it is probably the Queen Mother's people who are protecting Concubine Duan.

Of course, Concubine Duan herself was not an easy person to deal with. The personal maids around her never stayed for long and were usually sent out to get married at the age of 17 or 18. Now this auspicious thing was also because Concubine Duan had shown her kindness by consulting doctors and medicine when she was seriously ill, which made her calm down.

So Jiang Xinxin ordered: "Jianqiu, go to Shoukang Palace and ask the Queen Mother what she thinks of the little palace maid who was sent from our Jingren Palace to Yanqing Palace."

Jianqiu looked up at the queen who seemed a little unfamiliar. In the end, the friendship of years of support and service prevailed. She immediately analyzed that Jiang Xinxin wanted the queen mother to stop caring for Concubine Duan. She replied yes and backed out of the door.

There have been a lot of things going on in the palace these days, and most of them were caused by Jiang Xinxin. When the empress dowager heard Zhu Xi's report that Jianqiu from Jingren Palace wanted to see her, she immediately became unhappy.

Zhu Xi also felt sorry for the Queen Mother and advised, "Why don't you listen to Jian Qiu's intentions before making any plans?"

The Queen Mother sighed, nodded, and spoke helplessly: "It's all evil."

Jianqiu was of course not confident when facing the empress dowager, so she knelt firmly and kowtowed as soon as she came in. As usual, she asked about the empress dowager's health and diet. It was not until Zhuxi reminded her to state her purpose that Jianqiu replied, "The empress sent me this morning to send a maid to the concubine Duan in Yanqing Palace. She said that the maid was clever and skillful, and the concubine Duan should have such a maid to serve her."

The empress dowager couldn't help but sigh again. She knew of course that Concubine Duan was not an easy person to deal with, but seeing that Concubine Duan had been hiding in one place all these years and not trying to help anyone, she also felt pity for Concubine Duan who had left her family and entered the palace at a young age. So no matter when she was in the Qiandi Palace or now as a concubine, she was willing to let go and take care of Yanqing Palace.

But when Concubine Duan reached her hand into Jingren Palace, that was another matter.

The Queen Mother was already wary of Concubine Duan's intelligence, so she chose Concubine Duan as the executioner to serve a bowl of safflower soup to Nian Shilan, harming the male fetus in Nian Shilan's belly, alienating the relationship between the two generals' daughters, and cutting off any possible threat Nian Shilan posed to Yixiu in advance.

Jianqiu understood the truth, so how could the Queen Mother not understand it? So she finally let it go. "Forget it, Concubine Duan did go too far. But since the Queen has already dealt with it, let's stop here. Don't let the harem become panic-stricken and restless. It will always damage the reputation of the royal family."

Jianqiu went back and reported the truth. Jiang Xinxin was not surprised at all that the Queen Mother had completely abolished Concubine Duan. However, she did not expect Huichun to rush in and report that Concubine Fang of Suiyuxuan had a miscarriage!

Jiang Xinxin carefully checked Yixiu's memory and found that Yixiu did not use any excessive drugs on Concubine Fang. She just put some spices that would disturb her mind on her bed. She also secretly used Nian Shilan's people to make things difficult for Concubine Fang, making Concubine Fang even more anxious and eventually she lost the baby in her belly who was almost six months old.

"Quick, pack up and go to Suiyuxuan!"

Jiang Xinxin helped Jianqiu stand up by holding his hand, and gave Jianqiu a look. Jianqiu immediately nodded slightly, indicating that she would be in charge of everything.

When they arrived at Suiyuxuan, Concubine Qi and Concubine Jing had already arrived. Nian Shilan arrived earlier than Jiang Xinxin and was scolding the palace maids and eunuchs in Suiyuxuan.
