Starting from the imperial palace guards, his clones spread all over the world

#122 - Opportunity is here



#122 - Opportunity is here

The eunuch was holding a lucky bag with both hands.

The lucky bag was sewn from red brocade, with a "good fortune" character embroidered on it.

The lucky bag was bulging, as if it contained something.

Mu Congshuang frowned slightly and said in a deep voice:

"Open it!"

The only strange thing was that the object of the prayer on the safety amulet was actually the Emperor and the Empress.

Consort Zhang finally spoke up to explain:

"This concubine was thinking that the Spring Festival is approaching, so I went to the Great Buddha Temple a few days ago to pray for blessings for His Majesty and Your Highness."

"This lucky bag and safety amulet were prayed for by the abbot of the Great Buddha Temple, and he specifically instructed this concubine to bury it in the ground, as this would help the gods to perceive it and bring good luck to the objects of the prayer."

"I suppose the fault lies with this concubine for not explaining clearly to everyone, which led to outsiders accidentally seeing it and causing a misunderstanding."

"All the fault lies with this concubine, and I beg Your Highness to punish me."

Consort Zhang said this with an attitude of willingly accepting punishment and being at her disposal.

Her expression was sincere and genuine, as if everything she had just said came from the bottom of her heart.

Mu Congshuang was slightly moved.

The Great Buddha Temple is a royal temple, built and supported by the royal family.

Every year, members of the royal family and nobles also go there to worship and pray for blessings.

The lucky bag prayed for from within naturally cannot be associated with witchcraft.

Moreover, the objects of the prayer were the Emperor and Mu Congshuang herself.

Mu Congshuang glanced at a eunuch beside her.

The eunuch whispered:

"Your Highness, this is indeed a lucky bag and safety amulet from the Great Buddha Temple, and there are no problems with the contents of the talisman."

Mu Congshuang nodded slightly.

At this time.

The other searching eunuchs also returned one after another.

"Your Highness, we have searched Changchun Palace thoroughly and found nothing suspicious."

The eunuchs reported the situation.

Mu Congshuang's icy face finally relaxed at this time.

She said to Consort Zhang:

"It's rare that you have such intentions."

"It seems that this is indeed a misunderstanding."

"However, someone exaggerated the situation because of a misunderstanding, and even brought it to this palace, causing this palace to come and verify it in person."

"Consort, you can rest assured that this palace will handle this matter fairly and will never tolerate it."

A surge of anger welled up in Mu Congshuang's eyes.

However, this anger was not directed at Consort Zhang, but at someone else.

Hearing this, Consort Zhang hurriedly bowed:

"This concubine is naturally relieved to have Your Highness's words."

Mu Congshuang nodded slightly, exchanged a few simple greetings, and then left without lingering.

She led a group of palace maids and eunuchs out of Changchun Palace, and left completely after sitting on the phoenix palanquin.

Seeing the Empress leave, Consort Zhang lazily sat down on the chair.

At this time, she was nowhere near as innocent as she had been just now.

On the contrary, her beautiful eyes were filled with coldness:

"I don't need to be told, I know it must be that bitch, Concubine Li, who wants to frame this palace!"

"I was still wondering why she suddenly visited me the day before yesterday, and brought a bunch of novelties to distract me."

"So, she was secretly playing tricks!"

The palace maids and eunuchs who served her also crowded around her, each breathing a sigh of relief.

If something happened to their master, Consort Zhang, then they, the servants, would probably also be implicated.

Fortunately, they had already dug out and burned the paulownia wood doll.

After replacing it with a lucky bag, it not only got Consort Zhang out of trouble, but also earned her some goodwill with the Empress.

At this time, Consort Zhang's beautiful eyes looked at a delicate and pretty little palace maid beside her.

This little palace maid was recommended by Shangyi Hu to serve Consort Zhang a few days ago.

Her name is Su Lian.

At first, Consort Zhang only thought that this little palace maid was silly and not clever at all, and quite disliked her.

But she didn't expect that this time, the paulownia wood doll buried in Changchun Palace was discovered by this little palace maid.

If it weren't for this little palace maid, Consort Zhang would probably have suffered a disaster this time.

"Could this be… a fool's luck?"

Consort Zhang looked at Su Lian and felt a burst of disbelief in her heart.

She had originally planned to keep Su Lian for a while, give Shangyi Hu face, and then drive Su Lian away.

But now Consort Zhang realized that this Su Lian seemed to be able to bring her good fortune.

This made Consort Zhang change her mind and plan to keep Su Lian for a while longer to see.

Immediately, Consort Zhang said to the crowd:

"All of you remember this for me, don't bully Su Lian in the future."

"Su Lian has done a great service this time, all of you treat her better for me."

The eunuchs and palace maids looked at each other.

If Consort Zhang hadn't expressed her disgust for Su Lian several times in front of everyone, then how could they, these servants, have deliberately bullied Su Lian?

However, the eunuchs and palace maids naturally dared not say these words.

All they could do was repeatedly say yes.

… … … …

On the other side.

Chengan Palace.

Compared to the desertedness of Changchun Palace, Chengan Palace was naturally much more lively, and people came to visit in an endless stream.

The reason was also very simple, the master of Chengan Palace, Consort Han, was currently favored by the Emperor.

But today.

Consort Han's mood was not very good.

She was enjoying the kiwis transported from the south, but was disturbed by a eunuch, spoiling her good mood.

The eunuch ran over and whispered a few words in front of Consort Han in a hurry.

The latest novels are first published on 69shu.com!

Consort Han's expression immediately changed drastically upon hearing this:

"What?!"

"The Empress only found a lucky bag in Changchun Palace praying for blessings for her and the Emperor?"

"How did you handle this matter?"

"Didn't you swear that you could completely ruin that bitch? Now it's good, that bitch actually wants to take the opportunity to turn things around."

"I also went to find Concubine Li, and you handled everything, but now you've actually made it like this for me?"

"Useless! All of you are useless!"

As Consort Han spoke, she picked up the plate containing the kiwis and smashed it hard at the eunuch.

Along with a muffled sound.

A cut was smashed on the eunuch's forehead, and blood flowed straight down.

But he could only kneel respectfully, not daring to complain in the slightest.

Everyone knew that Consort Han's temper was not very good.

This kind of thing was already commonplace in Chengan Palace.

Just as Consort Han was furious.

A little eunuch stood out:

"Please calm down, Your Highness."

"This matter is not without a chance to salvage it."

Hearing this, Consort Han looked coldly at the little eunuch who stood up to speak.

Usually, when she was angry, no one dared to interrupt.

This little eunuch was new, could it be that he was pretending not to know the rules by relying on his status as a newcomer?

Consort Han sneered and was about to become furious.

But the little eunuch had already spoken:

"This servant has heard that although the abbot of the Great Buddha Temple is a disciple of Buddhism, he does not abide by the Buddhist precepts."

"He not only extorts money on a large scale, but also takes advantage of his status as the abbot of the royal temple to encroach on civilian land."

"Since Consort Zhang's lucky bag was prayed for from him, perhaps this Consort Zhang has close contact with this abbot and may be colluding with him."

The fire that Consort Han was about to unleash instantly vanished.

A look of excitement flashed in her eyes.

The abbot of the Great Buddha Temple was indeed a good direction of attack.

If the abbot fell, wouldn't Consort Zhang's lucky bag for praying for blessings become a great irony and joke?

Consort Han immediately asked the new little eunuch:

"Zhao Bao, are you confident about this matter?"

Zhao Bao replied:

"In response to Your Highness's words, this servant has already grasped some evidence of the abbot of the Great Buddha Temple committing crimes."

"But if this evidence is directly handed over to the Censorate, it will be difficult to achieve the desired effect, so it still needs the cooperation of the State Father."

"This servant has heard that the State Father also has many connections in the Censorate."

"At that time, how this case should be handled, what it should be, and who it should involve will all be in Your Highness's control."

Hearing this, Consort Han finally nodded in satisfaction.

She naturally knew that her father had never been idle and had always been working outside the palace to win over various forces for her.

Now, if this Zhao Bao really had concrete evidence, then this matter would be feasible.

Even if there was no concrete evidence, it didn't matter, with the energy of the Korean State Father, he could also make a fuss about it.

At that time, even if this case could not be turned into an iron case, it would definitely seriously damage Consort Zhang's reputation and make it even more difficult for her to gain a foothold in the harem.

Immediately, Consort Han made a decision:

"Good! Zhao Bao, I'll leave this matter to you."

"As long as you handle it well, this palace will reward you handsomely!"

She didn't care where Zhao Bao got the evidence of the abbot of the Great Buddha Temple's embezzlement and wealth accumulation.

Many palace servants in this palace did everything they could to please her in order to gain her favor.

Consort Han only cared about not having any opponents in the harem.

Her ultimate goal was the Empress!

"Thank you for your trust, Your Highness!"

"This servant will definitely live up to Your Highness's high expectations!"

Zhao Bao saluted respectfully.

But his heart was also excited.

He knew that his chance to perform had finally come!
