Chapter 364: Lure with Benefits and Treat with Sincerity

The next day, Fu Cha Zhixi took the initiative to go to Concubine Jing's palace.

"Sister, are you embroidering a bellyband for the princess?"

Fu Cha Zhixi smiled and looked at Concubine Jing and spoke.

"Greetings to the Imperial Concubine, may the Imperial Concubine be blessed with good health and good health."

When Concubine Jing saw Fu Cha Zhixi coming in, she quickly stood up and saluted.

Fu Cha Zhixi hurried forward and grabbed Concubine Jing.

"Sister, get up quickly."

"Why are you so polite to your younger sister? Is it because your younger sister hasn't come to visit you for a while and you and your sister have become estranged?"

"How could that be? Please take a seat. I will serve you some tea."

Concubine Jing smiled and spoke politely.

"Sister, your embroidery is really good. This is for Wen Yi, right?"

Fu Cha Zhixi picked up the embroidery frame on the table and couldn't help but smile and praise it.

"Yes."

When Wen Yi was mentioned, a loving smile appeared on Concubine Jing's face.

"It's hot now, and Wen Yi is still young, so I don't dare to give her too much ice. I can only embroider some bellybands for her, so that she can keep cooler."

"Sister is so kind to Wen Yi. Seeing how Sister is now, I am glad that what I did was right."

Fu Cha Zhixi couldn't help but speak when he saw this.

"It was thanks to my sister's help that I was able to handle the situation. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to enjoy the family happiness I have today."

Concubine Jing looked at Fu Cha Zhixi and smiled gently.

"Sister, are you here today to talk to me about something?"

Concubine Jing also guessed that the other party came here to ask for something, but she didn't mind. The other party helped her so much, so she should naturally give something in return.

What's more, for Wen Yi's future, she would also help.

"Since you asked me that, I won't beat around the bush."

"Although Wen Yi has been brought to my sister's side, the imperial edict still lists Wen Yi's mother as Concubine Cao. Once the emperor changes his mind, Wen Yi will most likely return to Concubine Cao again. Have you thought about how to deal with it then?"

Fu Cha Zhixi went straight to the point and directly pointed out the issue that Concubine Jing was most worried about.

"Of course I am worried, but Wen Yi is Concubine Cao's biological child after all. If Concubine Cao wants to take the child back in the future, how can I stop her?"

When Concubine Jing thought about this, she became extremely worried.

The more she got along with Wen Yi, the more she couldn't bear to leave him.

Now Wen Yi knows how to call people "mother" all the time, which makes her heart soften.

Although she did not go through the pain of childbirth, she has been taking care of Wen Yi's food, clothing, housing and transportation since she brought Wen Yi to her side. She has watched the little baby grow up to what he is now, so how could she bear to let him leave her again?

"Sister, I came here today just to help you."

"If we can get the emperor to change the imperial certificate, then Wen Yi will be my sister's child from now on, and no one will be able to take her away from me."

Fu Cha Zhixi stared at Concubine Jing closely, not missing any change in her emotions.

After seeing the longing look in Concubine Jing's eyes, she knew in her heart that the matter was done.

"Sister, you have helped me so much. I don't know how to repay you."

Concubine Jing was a little worried, thinking that the other party was going to such great lengths to ask her for help.

She didn't mind giving too much, after all, she was willing to do anything for Wen Yi, but she was afraid that she couldn't meet the other party's requirements.

"Don't worry, sister. I actually have a little selfish motive for this matter."

Fu Cha Zhixi had no intention of taking advantage of Concubine Jing to repay the favor. After all, Concubine Jing was a smart person, and the two of them had a certain understanding from the previous matter of the princess' marriage.

In this case, if she still keeps talking about her kindness to the other party, it will make the other party unhappy.

As the saying goes, great kindness is great hatred.

"Fuzhen almost died a few days ago. I am your mother now, so you should understand how much I hate the murderer behind this."

"To be honest, the person I suspected the most was the Queen, but no matter how hard I checked, I couldn't find any connection between the Queen and this matter."

"But I always feel that this matter is related to the Queen. After all, I am in this position now and have a prince by my side, which poses the greatest threat to the Queen."

"So I wonder if the Queen ordered others to do this, but none of the Queen's subordinates have the brains to design such an ingenious plan."

"In this palace, the only person who could have such a thoughtful mind is Concubine Cao."

"Sure enough, I asked Eunuch Chai in my palace to check it out, and he found out something interesting."

"There was a maid in Concubine Cao's palace whose brother originally had no money to treat his illness, but a few days ago Concubine Cao suddenly rewarded her with a sum of money, which was just enough to treat her brother's illness."

"I never believe in coincidences in this world. As expected, a handkerchief was found in Xiao Luzi's residence. The handkerchief was embroidered by this palace maid herself. So I guess Xiao Luzi must have a crush on this palace maid."

"In order to help the maid get the money to save her brother, he reached an agreement with Concubine Cao, willing to do this for Concubine Cao, and even willing to die to eliminate the trouble."

Fu Cha Zhixi told everything she had investigated with a cold face.

Upon hearing this, Concubine Jing had a complicated expression on her face, and it took her a long while before she spoke.

"This Concubine Cao is really extremely meticulous. She can observe such trivial matters and even use them to plot against others. No wonder the emperor has not found out anything after investigating for so long."

"Yes, so I suspect that Concubine Cao and the Queen have reached a certain agreement. Concubine Cao will help the Queen get rid of my Fu Zhen, and the Queen will find an opportunity to get Wen Yi back to her side."

Fu Cha Zhixi nodded and pointed out the main point of this topic.

"I do this not only for my sister, but also for my Fuzhen."

"If Concubine Cao dares to attack my Fu Zhen, I will never let it go. I will let her know that there is a price to pay for doing wrong."

"In that case, I will be polite to you. Whatever you want to do, I will fully support you."

Concubine Jing didn't expect Fu Cha Zhixi to be so frank and tell her all her little thoughts. In fact, even if she didn't say anything, she would definitely agree for Wen Yi.

But she had to admit that Fu Cha Zhixi's behavior made her feel respected.

As expected, the imperial concubine was a frank and kind person. Even if she helped more, she was not worried that the other party would stab her in the back.

"Sister, you don't need to do anything about Wen Yi's submission to the Imperial Edict, but regarding Fu Zhen's matter, I hope you can say a few more words to the Emperor. It would be best if the Emperor could take the initiative to think of Concubine Cao."

Fu Cha Zhixi looked at Concubine Jing and told her his purpose.
