Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

After being promoted to a seventh-rank lady, she was not only given a new house, but also an extra palace maid. All of these were assigned by the higher-ups. Concubines of lower ranks had no right to make requests, nor were they entitled to take the initiative to ask for anyone.

On the contrary, high-ranking concubines could bring their own confidants from outside the palace into the palace. For example, when Concubine Li entered the palace, she brought a trusted nanny from her natal family into the palace, who helped her gain a foothold in the palace.

Linlang asked the newcomer to be responsible for running errands and doing miscellaneous tasks, and the previous maid was in charge. The previous maid was now only responsible for her personal affairs.

The main reason was that after observing for such a long time, she found that the previous palace maid was reliable, so Linlang let her take charge.

This naturally made her happy.

You know, the palace maids assigned to low-ranking concubines are also the palace maids with the lowest status in the palace. Now that Linlang is rising step by step, her status is also gradually increasing with Linlang's promotion. How can she not be happy?

When Linlang moves up further and has more people around her, she will be able to be promoted from a palace maid to a female official.

Therefore, Linlang's palace maids were also looking forward to Linlang's ascension.

With more houses, Linlang finally has a place to meditate and practice. Before, she could only meditate and practice in the bedroom, which was naturally uncomfortable. Now she has the living room to meditate and practice, which has a special open space suitable for meditation, which is naturally much more comfortable.

Linlang naturally would not tell anyone that she was meditating and practicing in the room. She only said that she was a Buddhist, so she asked the female officials to prepare a place for her to put a cushion, and then she could meditate and practice in this specially prepared place. It was much better than before when she had no special place for meditation.

Linlang's promotion once again naturally attracted more attention. After all, every time she was favored, she could be promoted to a higher level, which was too eye-catching.

However, because the emperor had just dealt with a concubine and a noble lady, the positions of these two people in the palace were not low. After all, there were not many high-ranking concubines in the palace. Getting rid of the two at once naturally shocked some people, and made some people who wanted to attack Linlang temporarily shrink back and prepare to observe the situation first. In order to avoid the emperor leaving people to observe in the Zi Lan Palace because of the previous incident, they would be caught once they took action.

This also includes people sent by the second house to harm Linlang.

Because Linlang advanced again, the second house was furious and had to find the eunuch to ask why he hadn't taken any action yet. They said that they had given him a deposit, and if he didn't take any action, they would not give him the balance.

The eunuch then told the story of what happened in the palace recently, and then said, "It is not advisable to take action now. Taking action would simply lead to death. Wait for a while and make sure that Zi Lan Palace is fine. It will not be too late to take action then."

The eunuchs were in no hurry to take action, but the second house was. After all, Sun Linlang's promotion speed was too fast. She had actually reached the seventh rank. If she continued like this, they would probably be able to influence the emperor. After all, they learned from the eunuch that it was very rare for someone like Linlang to be promoted one level each time the emperor visited her. This meant that Linlang was still somewhat favored, otherwise, how could the emperor upgrade her.

The people in the second house couldn't help but feel their scalps tingling when they thought that Sun Linlang was actually favored.

Some people also began to regret, thinking that if they had known that Sun Linlang could enter the palace and be favored, they would not have had a falling out with the first wife. In that case, Sun Linlang would have been sent to the palace and favored, and Master Sun Er would have passed the imperial examination and become an official. Wouldn't they have been able to help each other? Unlike now, they have torn their faces apart, not to mention helping each other, but stabbing each other in the back. The person who regretted it was not Madam Sun Er, nor Sun Linyun or any of the children, but Master Sun Er.

Master Sun Er was a very utilitarian person. In the past, the first wife was useful to him, no matter how poor she was, no matter how much he looked down upon the country people's words and deeds, no matter how much he looked down on the first wife in his heart, he never showed any expression on his face that would make the first wife uncomfortable, and he always respected her.

Later, he passed the imperial examination and became an official. He felt that he absolutely did not need the first wife anymore. In fact, her presence in Beijing would even become a burden to him, so he kicked her away.

Now, Master Sun Er found out that Linlang could actually enter the palace and even do well, and was suspected to be favored, which was good for him. It was normal for him to regret that he should not have had a falling out with the first wife. After all, he saw that Linlang could be promoted every time the emperor visited her. It seemed that the emperor was very satisfied with Linlang. She might be favored in the future. Naturally, he coveted Linlang's connections, thinking that if he had a good relationship with Linlang at the beginning, when Linlang was promoted again, she could help him and whisper in the emperor's ear to let the emperor give him a better official position.

What a pity. The relationship with the first wife has been completely torn apart. Now that Sun Linlang is in favor, it does not bring any benefits to the second wife. It only brings harm. How can Master Sun Er not regret it?

Although he regretted it, Master Sun Er not only did not give up on making trouble for Linlang, he even increased his efforts, because since there was no possibility of reconciliation with the first wife, he had to eliminate the other party.

That's why they urged the eunuch to act quickly. The eunuch said that some big things had happened in the palace recently and the Linlang Palace was on alert. He didn't dare to act. Master Sun Er thought that maybe he should find a way to ask other people for help. After all, he couldn't put all his hopes on this one eunuch. Maybe there were other eunuchs who dared to act now?

Because the second house really can't afford to wait any longer. With Sun Linlang's terrifying promotion speed, if they wait any longer, Sun Linlang will be promoted to a higher level, and they will really not be able to deal with her. Or they will have to pay more money before others are willing to help. How can they do that?

So Master Sun Er started looking for other eunuchs.

There are so many eunuchs in the palace, you can always find new people willing to help.

The fact that Linlang had become a seventh-rank lady made Sun Linyun, who had once despised her original self and called her a poor vampire, look unhappy again.

She didn't know much about the rank of lady, but she had heard of the nobles three ranks above.

Although the rank of concubines in this world is somewhat different from what she knows, no matter how different it is, just by hearing that the noble lady is of the fifth rank, she knows that this is at least a middle-level title in the palace.

If Sun Linlang climbed to this level, it would be dangerous for their family. Of course, the more important thing was that she was afraid that something would happen to her family and Sun Linlang would laugh at her, laughing at her for calling her a poor vampire in the past. Now that their family was in trouble and became poor, the other party turned around and called them poor. How could this be possible? So when Sun Linyun heard that Linlang had advanced again, her face naturally became ugly again.

But she is different from Master Sun Er. She has no ability to do anything to Linlang, so she can only let Master Sun Er find a way to deal with Linlang.

She still blindly trusted Master Sun Er. After all, he was a Jinshi (a scholar) and his IQ must be high. If he couldn't think of a way to deal with Sun Linlang, she would be even less likely to think of a way. (End of this chapter)
