Chapter 399 Ling Ji's Test

Zanhua and Zijuan heard this from behind and both became angry.

This is not an insinuation that Ren Yuhuan was just brought by the imperial concubine back then, and was just a little palace maid.

Ren Yuhuan pursed her lips and smiled. It seemed that she knew about the substitute concubine.

"Of course I know."

Auntie Tian immediately smiled and explained, "Don't misunderstand, Madam. I was talking about you. Didn't you bring a nanny into the palace not long ago?"

Ren Yuhuan pursed her lips, smiled and nodded.

This person knows everything about Lian Ren's mother. It seems that she is not here to betray Ling Ji, but to show her power.

Ren Yuhuan remained calm and smiled, "I wonder what Aunt Tian wants to tell me?"

Auntie Tian immediately smiled and said, "I have said this just now. Although I have been with Ling Ji for a long time, I have only been serving her from the outside. I don't know what Your Majesty wants to know. Why don't you ask Your Majesty?"

Ren Yuhuan smiled and nodded, "What I want to know is what is the relationship between Ling Ji and Concubine Kong?"

Auntie Tian immediately pretended to be thoughtful after hearing this: "Noble Lady Kong is the new lady who entered the palace. I'm not familiar with her. Noble Lady Kong has come to visit with other new ladies who entered the palace, but only this time."

She immediately apologized after she finished speaking: "I'm sorry, I can't help you, my lady."

Ren Yuhuan shook his head slightly: "It's okay, just asking casually, come here."

Zanhua immediately came over and handed over a purse.

Auntie Tian smiled and accepted it: "Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty. If you have any other instructions in the future, just let me know."

"Keep an eye on Concubine Kong. If she comes, tell me immediately."

Aunt Tian agreed to go.

Zijuan snorted coldly and said, "Madam, should we go back and ask Nanny Wang who we are looking for?"

Ren Yuhuan smiled and said, "No need, no need to tell Nanny Wang. If they ask, just answer according to what Auntie Tian said."

Zanhua stepped forward and asked, "Did your Majesty deliberately reveal the name of Concubine Kong, hoping that they would contact each other after knowing the news?"

Ren Yuhuan slowly stood up and put away the smile on his face: "Go back first."

After returning to Yikun Palace, Zijuan and Zanhua both wanted to know the next arrangements and waited in the room.

Ren Yuhuan changed into plain clothes and sat down and said, "Give orders to keep an eye on everyone in Biyao Palace."

Zanhua agreed, but did not leave.

Ren Yuhuan looked up at Zanhua and Zijuan and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"

"My Lady, has Ling Ji discovered that we are investigating her?"

Ren Yuhuan shook his head: "No, Auntie Tian came here today just to test the waters."

"Is there such a temptation? Doesn't she want to stabilize the queen and lie in wait for a long time?"

The hairpin flower is also puzzled.

"They don't want us to have more contact, so they are doing this. They pretend not to talk, which makes me hate them."

"This shows that Ling Ji was very suspicious of why I would come to investigate her, which is why I mentioned Concubine Kong. They knew everything and knew what they had done until they knew I had discovered it."

"So the queen said this on purpose so that she wouldn't find out that we discovered their little trick?"

Ren Yuhuan nodded: "After dealing with Aunt Tian today, I have a feeling that what they are doing is definitely not a trivial matter!"

Zijuan thought for a moment and said, "Does this matter have anything to do with Nanny Wang?"

Ren Yuhuan lowered his head and thought for a while: "I don't know for now, but you must not alert the enemy. Just say that I am very angry, and Nanny Wang will naturally feel relieved."

Zijuan didn't understand why she should let Nanny Wang feel at ease.

Zanhua nodded and said, "Just stay calm first." After hearing what Zijuan said, Nanny Wang immediately came over and knelt down to apologize.

"I didn't expect Aunt Tian to be like this. I didn't investigate carefully beforehand, and caused the Empress to suffer."

Ren Yuhuan hummed and said, "Ling Ji and Concubine Kong, I will never forgive them for daring to attack the little prince. Nanny Wang, please get up. This matter has nothing to do with you."

When Nanny Wang heard this, she stood up and bowed, saying, "Thank you for your generosity, Your Majesty. But I just don't understand how Aunt Tian became like this."

"It's not surprising that each serves his own master."

Nanny Wang nodded at the hairpin and said, "Perhaps so. But are you sure that Concubine Kong is related to Lingji?"

Ren Yuhuan shook his head: "There is no evidence. It's just that my informants passed on the news that Concubine Kong once let the cat out of the bag."

When Nanny Wang heard this, she immediately asked, "How did you let it slip?"

Ren Yuhuan glanced at Zanhua, and Zanhua explained, "Didn't we suspect Concubine Kong last time? The Queen planted someone next to Concubine Kong."

Nanny Wang nodded: "It should be."

"Then we discovered that Concubine Kong not only communicated with Concubine Qi openly, but also secretly communicated with Bi Yao Palace."

"How do we get along?"

"The maids of the Biyao Palace would occasionally go in through the back door and come out again soon after entering."

Ren Yuhuan smiled and said to Nanny Wang who was listening carefully, "If it weren't for Concubine Kong, I wouldn't have known there was such a person as Ling Ji in the palace."

Nanny Wang nodded and said, "This Ling Ji is quite a secretive person. Could it be that she also wants to compete for the position of queen?"

Ren Yuhuan heard this and smiled with narrowed eyes: "That should be it. His Majesty has finally decided to appoint a queen, who wouldn't be tempted?"

Seeing that this was the case, Nanny Wang nodded and left.

After she left, even Zijuan noticed it.

"Why is Nanny Wang so suspicious?"

Zanhua put her finger on her lips and looked at Ren Yuhuan: "Madam, I will keep an eye on you."

Ren Yuhuan nodded: "Don't be too nervous, relax a little, and you will see more."

Zanhua nodded in understanding.

"Call Wang Lian. It's time to let him do something more."

She left with a smile on her face.

Wang Lian hurried to the Yikun Palace, wiping his sweat with a handkerchief while carrying his clothes into the palace, and shouted, "My queen, I heard your order and came here immediately, for fear of delaying your business!"

Upon hearing this, Ren Yuhuan stood up and stood at the doorstep, ordering the palace servants to go over and support him.

Wang Lian sat down to rest for a while before Ren Yuhuan said, "Eunuch Wang, I want to deal with Concubine Kong. Do you have any good ideas?"

Wang Lian was stunned, and turned to look at Zijuan and Zanhua: "Is there something wrong with my ears? Your Majesty has never been competitive, why do you suddenly say such things now?"

Ren Yuhuan smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, Eunuch. Remember the last time the little prince was poisoned?"

Wang Lian's eyes lit up immediately and he nodded repeatedly: "I know!"

"It was Consort Kong who did it."

Wang Lian said "oh" and showed a look of understanding.

"Because of this incident, I can't even see the little prince. Eunuch, tell me, should I be angry?"

Wang Lian nodded immediately: "Unforgivable! Don't worry, Madam, I will take care of this matter. I guarantee that you will be relieved!"

Ren Yuhuan smiled and nodded: "Make sure she knows the reason and knows that it was me who did it."

Wang Lian immediately smiled and said, "It's time to let her know how powerful we are!"
