Feng Yuzhen observed the situation and knew that she was a big step closer to success, so she happily resigned.

Jiang Yingyue, who was drinking tea at the side, saw this and just smiled without saying a word.

Mrs. Feng couldn't win favor herself, so she taught others to fight for favor. Two fools got together.

Jiang Bilan did what she said, and the next day she pushed a few palace servants who did rough work to come out to lift the vat and smooth the matter over herself.

To be on the safe side, she even asked Xia Tong to come to Linzhi Palace, which was called a heart-to-heart talk, but in reality she warned her not to talk nonsense and that it was best to keep the matter in her stomach.

Xia Tong had no intention of getting to the bottom of things. It was impossible to say for certain what the rumors were. He might not be sure who was the one who kept his mouth shut. It was not easy to find real evidence.

Fortunately, they are just rumors. As long as the emperor has the trust, the impact will be minimal.

In fact, Xia Tong suspected that in the process of the rumors fermenting, someone was indispensable to add fuel to the flames - except for the imperial concubine, no one had such great energy.

When she went to Linzhi Palace to pay her respects, she specially brought the jade Ruyi with her.

Jiang Bilan saw it, and a mouthful of old blood was stuck in her throat - of course she recognized that this Ruyi was a birthday gift given to the emperor by the Jiang family last year, which cost a thousand taels of silver, and the jade material was rare in the world.

Now the emperor easily passed it on to others, which shows how much face the Xia family has. Jiang Bilan forced a smile and said: "The thing in my sister's hand looks very familiar."

Xia Tong thought she had seen her in the emperor's study, so he said modestly: "It's not a very expensive thing. It's probably something your Majesty uses to scratch his itches."

Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain why the emperor placed it anywhere within reach - no one told her the value of Ruyi, and Xia Tong lacked the discernment to recognize pearls, so she could only think that the emperor did it casually.

Jiang Bilan: "..."

Is this showing off? Is this showing off?

She suddenly felt tired, "Go back."

The Xia family was so favored that even she, a noble concubine, did not dare to challenge her directly, so she had to stay away for a while.

Feng Yuzhen hid behind the screen, expecting a big battle between the two, but was dumbfounded when she saw it.
