Chapter 486 [The Legend of Zhen Huan 21]
In the Yangxin Palace, the emperor dismissed everyone and called out, "Xia Yi."
"I'm here! What do you want me to do for you, master?" Xia Yi stood respectfully aside and responded softly.
"I ask you, have the women in the harem made any moves?" The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
"In reply to the emperor, Concubine Hua has not gone out since she was put under house arrest by you, while Concubine Qi is very anxious and has been asking around for information in an attempt to rescue the queen. Noble Lady Xiang seems to want to take the opportunity to deal a fatal blow to Concubine Hua, but Concubine Jing has not made much movement. She just told the palace servants in Xianfu Palace to be cautious. As for the other concubines, they are exceptionally quiet." Xia Yi reported the situation in the harem truthfully.
"Well...what about Sui Yuxuan? Has he taken any action?" The emperor thought of the person who looked very similar to Concubine Ulanara.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Shen went to Suiyuxuan today and had a very pleasant conversation with Concubine Wan." Xia Yi continued to report.
"Oh? What did they say?" The emperor frowned and asked curiously.
"Your Majesty, this is the record of the conversation between Concubine Shen and Concubine Wan. Please take a look." As he said this, Xia Yi handed the paper in his hand to the emperor.
The emperor took the paper and read it carefully. He saw that the paper was densely written with words, which recorded in detail the conversation between Concubine Shen and Concubine Wan.
After the emperor finished reading, his eyes became gloomy and cold, and a sneer appeared on his face: "Haha, Wan Changzai is really bold. A small Changzai actually dares to speak ill of the master and the queen. She is really brave!"
He clenched his fists and said in a cold tone: "This Zhen Huan thinks she is smart, but she doesn't know that her every move is under my control. How dare she be so presumptuous? Does she really think I don't know?"
Xia Yi bowed his head and replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I have arranged for people to continue to monitor Zhen Huan, Shen Meizhuang and others. Their words and deeds will not escape our eyes."
The emperor nodded slightly, with a hint of determination in his eyes: "Very good, continue to closely monitor their actions. If you find any unusual movements or improper behavior, report to me immediately. Also, the security measures at Concubine Shu's place must be strengthened, and not even a fly can be allowed to fly in."
Xia Yi quickly responded, "Yes, I'll take my leave." Then he quickly left the room, as if blending into the darkness.
The emperor lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then picked up his pen and quickly wrote a few imperial edicts. After the ink had dried, he wanted to pass them down immediately, but thinking of something, he put them aside carefully.
Then, the emperor shouted loudly to the outside of the palace: "Su Peisheng, come in!"
Hearing the summons, Su Peisheng hurried into the palace and asked respectfully, "I am here, what does the emperor want?"
The emperor frowned and asked in a serious tone, "Has anyone from any palace come to the emperor to inquire about the news?"
Su Peisheng answered truthfully: "Your Majesty, all the palaces have sent people, including those from Concubine Hua's palace, Concubine Duan's palace, Concubine Qi's palace, Concubine Wan, and Concubine Shen. In addition, there are Concubine Xiang, Concubine Li, and Concubine Fucha..."
The emperor couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that these people's spies in my harem are really everywhere!"
Su Peisheng hurriedly explained: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I have already told everyone in front of the emperor that no one will leak a word."
The emperor nodded with satisfaction and said, "You have done a good job. I will give you two extra months' salary this month."
Su Peisheng was overjoyed and quickly thanked him: "Your Majesty, I thank you."
The emperor stood up, straightened his dragon robe, and then said, "Let's go to Chengqian Palace and see your virtuous master." His voice was steady and majestic.
Su Peisheng quickly bowed and replied, "Yes." He knew very well how much the emperor doted on Concubine Shu, so he did not dare to neglect her in the slightest and immediately made arrangements to go to Chengqian Palace.
