On the way here, she had come up with a detailed plan with Xiaoyu.
The first step of the plan was to find a way to make the eldest prince and the queen lose their power. In this way, the situation in Lieyun, which had not changed for many years, would become chaotic again.
The more chaotic it was, the higher Xiaoyu's chances of winning would be.
Coincidentally, she had just arrived when she met the queen who was looking for trouble.
Naturally, the blood-stained peony was brought to the Queen's bedchamber.
Now that the queen had fallen ill, it was up to her and Madam Jingrou to make arrangements for the rest.
"What's there to endure? Back then, if it wasn't for the Great King Empress joining forces with a few other clans to force me, why would I go through the trouble of sending my newborn child to a place that I don't even know? My son left, but they kept forcing me, causing my son to wander the streets. But what can I do about it, He Lan? Even His Majesty, His Majesty was forced by them … As His Majesty's wife, I can only endure it. "
Lin Mengya could see that there was something wrong with Madam Jingrou's hands, which were half-hidden in her sleeves, tightly clenched.
"Madam, have your hands been injured before?"
Madam Jingrou's body was very delicate, but her hands, especially the second and third joints, were very swollen.
Moreover, there were many scars on her hands that had faded.
Who knew how many years had passed for the scars to become like this?
How badly must the owner of these hands have been injured for them to become like this?
"Yes, I have been injured. These were given to me by them, and they are no longer a problem. But Helan, what you did this time will make the queen lose some of her reputation. But this will not shake her foundation. The queen is backed by the first aristocratic family in Lieyun, and the eldest prince is not a muddle-headed person. This is too risky, too rash. "
She casually mentioned the wounds on her hands. After all, Madam Jingrou still felt that Lin Mengya's plan was too radical.
Lin Mengya smiled lightly, stretched out her hand, and gently brushed away the wrinkles on the hem of her wife's clothes.
"This time, Her Majesty has lost more than just a bit of reputation. When she humiliated Madam, did she choose to do it when no one was around? "
Madam Jing Rou didn't understand, but she still nodded.
After all, she was born into the Xin family and had the king's protection.
Even when the Empress and the others had tortured her, they had avoided the eyes and ears of His Majesty and many others. Afterwards, they had chosen to execute those palace servants who had carried out the torture to shut her and His Majesty's mouths.
If His Majesty had not been injured back then, how could she have let him go so easily?
"That's right. Since the Great Empress plotted against you and Xiao Yu, then why don't we give her a taste of her own medicine this time? Madam, the current situation is no longer the same as before, when you had to endure for the sake of Xiaoyu. Look at the Empress. She actually brought her men to our door so aggressively just for a pot of flowers. Don't you feel a little impatient? "
As an outsider, Lin Mengya could see some things more clearly.
The Great King Empress came in a threatening manner, but her reason was a little too far-fetched.
If they could lure His Majesty or Xiaoyu here and make a big fuss, they might be able to accuse Madam of overstepping her authority.
Unfortunately, neither His Majesty nor Xiaoyu came. She even interfered and made the Great King Empress give up. Thinking about it, it was a little too childish.
Since they were already mortal enemies, she raised them up high but let them go so easily. If it wasn't for the fact that the Great King Empress was very shrewd and wanted to make fun of Madam Jing Rou.
It could only mean that the Great King Empress was very eager to get rid of Madam Jing Rou.
That was why she was unscrupulous and used all kinds of excuses. Even a small pot of peony could be used as a reason for her to act up.
Since she was so eager for quick success, why couldn't they make use of her?
"Now that you mention it, I remember a lot of things. What you said makes sense, but we can't rush this matter. Ningqiu, follow me to Linqiu Pavilion with Helan to see how the Great King Empress is doing. "
"Yes."
Following behind Madam Jing Rou, the group walked to Linqiu Pavilion, which was the Great King Empress' residence.
Along the way, there were constantly various palace servants rushing back and forth on this road.
It should be because of the Great King Empress' illness.
Under Madam Jing Rou's intentional push, the entire palace was busy with the Great King Empress's affairs.
Therefore, other matters were delayed a lot.
But the Great King Empress' life was at stake, who would care about these things?
The more they paid attention to it, the more strange and serious the Great King Empress' illness would seem. If she recovered for no reason, who knew what kind of rumors would spread?
"Madam, let's go back."
Not far away, Ningqiu whispered to her.
Lin Mengya stood behind Madam Jing Rou and looked in the direction of Linqiu Pavilion.
No one knew who got the news that Madam Jingrou was coming, so many concubines who were on good terms with the King and Empress stood at the door, staring at the gentle and weak Madam Jingrou like tigers watching their prey.
Their eyes were unkind, as if they wanted to eat her up.
"It's okay, the Great King Empress' health is more important."
There was a slight nervousness on her face, and it took her a lot of effort to squeeze out a smile, but the faces of those concubines became even more arrogant and disdainful.
They were just a group of chirping crows following the Great King Empress. Now they were showing off here, but if the Great King Empress really died one day, maybe they would run away faster than anyone else.
"Isn't this Madam Jing Rou? What's wrong? Is it not enough that the Great King Empress is bedridden? Do you still want to come here to show off? "
Before Madam Jing Rou could speak, a small character jumped out first.
Lin Mengya glanced at her. The other party's clothes were not very noble, but the hairpin in her hair was a different kind of wealth.
It seemed that the Great King Empress was quite good at winning people's hearts.
"How dare you! Madam, you don't have to be calculative with Beauty Cheng. She was just worried about the Great King Empress and was anxious."
A very gentle voice sounded, and then a touch of green appeared in front of Lin Mengya.
The person who came was gentle and beautiful. Although her appearance was not as good as Madam Jing Rou's, and her temperament was also lacking, the two of them were very similar.
She was simply the inferior version of Madam Jing Rou.
Beside her, Ning Qiu suddenly tugged at her sleeve. She turned around, only to see Ning Qiu twitching her mouth with extreme disdain.
At that moment, Lin Mengya realized that this person was probably Madam Hui, who was brought into the palace by Madam Jing Rou and then betrayed her.
No wonder she was brought up by Madam Jing Rou. Her every movement was somewhat similar to that of her former master.
It seemed that she was favored by Madam Jing Rou at that time because of this similarity.
"It doesn't matter. I'm just here to see Her Highness. I don't care about these things."
From the moment Madam Hui appeared, Madam Jing Rou's expression was a little complicated.
But Madam Hui's eyes were not polite at all, and she looked at Lin Mengya directly.
There was no respect for Madam Jing Rou at all.
Lin Mengya shook her head in her heart. In fact, Madam Jing Rou's character was not as soft and cowardly as she appeared.
She was even willing to make such a big sacrifice for her son, which was enough to show that Madam Jing Rou was also a bit domineering in her heart.
Lin Mengya didn't know whether it was because she hid it too deeply, or because she was worried about something.
Even in the face of this traitor, she still looked soft and weak, which made Lin Mengya feel really helpless.
The more she acted like this, the more she would be despised and despised by others.
Lin Mengya believed that Madam also understood this. If she wanted to get rid of her opponents one by one in the palace, it would not work at all to pretend to be pitiful.
"Of course, Madam, your breadth of mind is not something we can compare with. Her Highness is recuperating in the bedroom. Madam, this way please. "
As soon as Madam Hui arrived, everyone became quiet.
Her position was obviously below Madam Jing Rou, but everyone seemed to listen to her more.
It was as if she was the master of the palace. Obviously, she was here to embarrass Madam Jing Rou.
When they walked into Linqiu Pavilion, they saw that it was extremely luxurious with richly ornamented beams and painted rafters.
However, although it was magnificent, it lacked some of the worldly atmosphere of Fengyu Garden.
Madam Hui maintained the manner of a master, walking side by side with Madam Jing Rou.
However, Lin Mengya's ears were sharp, so she heard their whispers accurately.
"Sister, are you satisfied now? In fact, I have long known that you have always been like this. You never let go of anything that belongs to me. In the past, it was His Majesty. Now, seeing that I am on good terms with His Majesty, you can't help but take action, right? Sister, you are really secretive. I admire you very much. "
This sentence revealed a lot of information.
However, the meaning revealed in it surprised Lin Mengya a little.
Was it another drama where Miss Jing took advantage of her status to take away her beloved?
After thinking for a while, she felt that it was not the case. His Majesty seemed to be an extremely overbearing and determined person.
If Miss Jing had really impersonated him or used tricks to take the throne, the Majesty would not have cherished Madam Jing Rou so much.
Obviously, there was affection in his eyes, but he had to forcibly suppress it.
As an outsider, she naturally did not know the hidden story.
As expected, when Madam Jing Rou heard these words, her body stiffened.
She looked at Madam Hui with a gloomy face, but did not say anything.
It seemed that Madam Hui had gained the upper hand in this confrontation, so she curled up the corner of her mouth and smiled sarcastically. Then, she returned to her gentle and elegant look.
It seemed that in order to make Madam Jing Rou no longer willing to endure it, she had to untie the knot in her heart.
Almost all the medical officers in the palace gathered outside the bedroom of Linqiu Pavilion.
