Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

However, although the emperor ordered to find out the murderer of Chu Zhaoyi, it is not certain whether he can be found.

Since the other party wanted to kill Chu Zhaoyi, he naturally knew that once he was discovered, he would definitely be dead. So unless he didn't want to live, he would be extremely careful.

The women in the palace have nothing to do every day, so they can think over and over again before taking action, making sure they will not be exposed, and then take action.

In this case, it is not easy to find the murderer.

Linlang's guess was correct. Chu Zhaoyi's illness was getting worse and worse, but the murderer had not been found. The main reason was that the emperor would not let the Ministry of Punishment arrest anyone for interrogation unless there were some clues. Otherwise, if there were no clues, they couldn't just let the Ministry of Punishment search the entire palace. What if they couldn't find anything? Then they would arrest everyone and interrogate them in the Ministry of Punishment? That would be too troublesome, and it would also be a bit unlucky. After all, it was a good thing to make the whole palace panic for no reason.

So the emperor could only improve the safety of his people's food, clothing, housing and transportation while continuing to look for the murderer.

In the end, Chu Zhaoyi died with hatred in her heart, and the emperor never found the murderer.

Although the murderer has not been found, the emperor has been secretly keeping an eye on the matter. Linlang learned this from the little bee.

This is also normal. An emperor, sitting on a vast territory, has already enjoyed the ultimate wealth in the world. He must be afraid that there are people in the palace who can poison secretly, and will attack him and poison him to death in the future. Therefore, he must take action and will not give up easily.

Chu Zhaoyi died, and then the emperor sent people to investigate the poisoning of Chu Zhaoyi. The atmosphere in the palace became tense, and some people who were planning to do something to Linlang stopped and dared not to do anything. This was a good thing for Linlang, after all, it was better to have less trouble than more.

As the atmosphere in the palace became tense again, the eunuchs hired by Master Sun Er naturally did not dare to take any action. When Master Sun Er heard that Linlang had been promoted again, he could only get angry, but he had no way to deal with Linlang.

Under such circumstances, Master Sun Er inevitably became more determined to let his daughter enter the palace in the next selection. By then, with someone from his family in the palace, it would be much more convenient to do anything. Moreover, commanding his daughter remotely is much more reliable than commanding those eunuchs.

Since we are planning to let my daughter participate in the next talent show, we should start preparing now.

Although Sun Linlang, who looked like a horrible person, was able to enter the palace, his own daughter would definitely not be worse than her and would definitely be able to enter the palace. However, if she wanted to make a name for herself in the palace, she still had to make more preparations. So, Master Sun Er hired some maids from the palace to teach his daughter about palace affairs, including etiquette and rules, as well as some survival skills in the palace.

This is naturally another expense.

Fortunately, Master Sun Er is now an official and has various gray incomes, otherwise he would not be able to support the expenses of hiring eunuchs to deal with Linlang, and hiring a nanny in the palace to teach his daughter.

Not to mention that Master Sun Er was planning to let his daughter enter the palace in the next selection, and that he could only be patient with not being able to deal with Linlang for the time being, he only said that Linlang was promoted again before the New Year and was promoted to a fifth-rank noble lady.

Concubine Ding was given the title as soon as she entered the palace, but it took Linlang almost two years to get it.

Although it took almost two years, this was the result of Linlang's ability to control the speed. Otherwise, with Linlang's ability to use the Dream Talisman, she would be able to accomplish it in one go.

Although this was the result of Linlang controlling the speed, she was already the best among the newcomers after being promoted to a noble. The two newcomers who were higher in rank than her were also promoted, but neither of them reached the level of a noble.

Therefore, Linlang's promotion naturally attracted the attention of everyone in the palace. After all, who wouldn't pay attention to the best people? No one would have thought that someone who was at the bottom of the newcomers could suddenly become the best among the newcomers.

Fortunately, Linlang had been noticed before, and it was a gradual process. So now there are more people paying attention to her, and she can bear it. She is not like some people who are suddenly noticed by many people and get tripped up and can't handle it. It's like Concubine Ding at the beginning. She didn't know who tripped her up, and she fell like a meteor.

Being promoted to the fifth rank of noble lady brought good things, such as an increase in various benefits, but there were also bad things, that is, as noble ladies and above, one had to pay respects to the empress dowager every morning, and prepare gifts for the empress dowager during festivals.

This is the change that Linlang dislikes the most.

But if you want to advance, there is no other way.

The next day after her promotion, Linlang followed the main concubine, Concubine Liu, to pay respects to the empress dowager.

The concubines of lower rank in each palace usually had to act together with the main concubine.

Although Concubine Liu was extremely jealous of Linlang's favor, she did not dare to do anything to Linlang because she was in favor at the moment, fearing that Linlang would be wronged and complain to the emperor.

This is probably the good thing about being in favor. Those who are not in favor don’t dare to offend her openly, for fear that she will complain to the emperor.

Although the emperor did not often visit her, some people did not dare to offend her openly because she would always be promoted every time she visited him.

So when Linlang and Concubine Liu went to the Queen Mother, Concubine Liu did not make things difficult for Linlang on the way.

Currently, only Linlang and Concubine Liu in Zi Lan Palace are qualified to pay respects to the Empress Dowager. Previously, there were Concubine Liu's two lackeys, Concubine Song and Concubine Cao. Since they were eliminated by Linlang, there are no concubines of higher status in Zi Lan Palace.

Since Concubine Liu did not make things difficult for Linlang, the empress dowager naturally would not make things difficult for Linlang. After all, there were so many concubines in the palace, coming and going. From time to time, new people would come to pay their respects to her, and from time to time they would disappear. As long as no one was disrespectful to the empress dowager - and generally no one would dare to be disrespectful to her - the empress dowager would not make things difficult for the other party. After all, who knows when this person will not come, and there is no point in competing with them.

As for those high-ranking concubines, they would not make things difficult for Linlang, the new person who could pay respects to the empress dowager. After all, many of them had visited Linlang after her promotion. In that case, why would they make things difficult for Linlang now?

Of course, the main reason is that Linlang is not very favored. How can she be considered favored if the emperor only visits her once every one or two months? If the emperor had not upgraded Linlang every time he visited her, they would have felt that someone who was visited so rarely could not be considered favored.

But because Linlang was favored by the emperor seldom, she was able to advance every time, which showed that the emperor was very satisfied with her, which made people dare not say that Linlang was out of favor.

No one knows whether Linlang is favored or not, so there is no need to target her right away.

Besides, Linlang doesn't have any children yet and is still far from a high position, which is why everyone doesn't make things difficult for Linlang for the time being.

Of course, some people had been secretly wary of Linlang's favor and had troubled her. (End of this chapter)
