"Change it. As for that person..."
As Mu Fengqie said this, she paused for a moment. "You can handle it as you see fit. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
After saying that, she didn't care about the expression on Concubine Hua's face and directly left with Zhu Fei.
Concubine Hua sat there alone in a daze, seemingly lost in thought. But from the look in her eyes, it was evident that she hated the person who had betrayed her to the core.
"Your Highness, why did we help her?" As soon as they got out of the palace, Zhu Fei immediately voiced her doubts.
Mu Fengqie hooked her lips slightly and said indifferently, "I was just acting from the perspective of a doctor. Helping her was just a matter of convenience.
Moreover, with her in the palace, the person beside Mu Xingrou might have something to do and won't just keep scheming." At least, things won't go as smoothly for them.
Zhu Fei nodded in understanding.
Mu Fengqie turned around and looked back at the direction of the palace. She didn't think that the person beside Concubine Hua would betray her voluntarily. There must be someone who had caught her on the wrong foot.
But what could possibly make a person from the Flower - Full Kingdom betray Concubine Hua?
Mu Fengqie vaguely felt that this matter was related to the eunuch beside Mu Xingrou, but she just had no evidence.
She hoped that Concubine Hua would be up to the task and find out the truth. She really didn't want her good intentions to go to waste.
After Mu Fengqie left, Concubine Hua sat on the chair until evening before she came to her senses.
She looked at the old nanny bustling around her and felt a pang in her heart.
"Nanny, take these away. I have no appetite today," Concubine Hua said tentatively.
Concubine Hua still held a glimmer of hope for the old nanny, but the old nanny's next words shattered her hope completely.
"Your Ladyship, you should eat a little. Otherwise, your body won't be able to take it," the old nanny said with a concerned look on her face.
Concubine Hua looked at this hypocritical woman and felt extremely ironic. If she had nothing to hide, how could she say such things?
In the past, if she said she had no appetite, the old nanny would immediately ask what had happened.
The old nanny, feeling the deep and unfathomable gaze of Concubine Hua, lowered her head guiltily.
"Your Ladyship?" the old nanny called tentatively.
Concubine Hua showed no expression. She just had a cold look on her face and ordered someone to take the things away.
"Your Ladyship, has something happened?" For some reason, the old nanny felt a sense of uneasiness in her heart.
She had heard that Mu Fengqie had come today, and she was worried that what she had done had been discovered.
"Nanny, when did you enter the palace? I'm talking about the palace of the Flower - Full Kingdom," Concubine Hua said seriously, looking into the old nanny's eyes.
Hearing Concubine Hua ask this, the old nanny thought that her strange behavior today was because she missed her homeland, so her guard was somewhat lowered.
"This old servant was once a slave bought by the maternal grandfather's family of Your Ladyship. Later, as time passed, I became the personal maid of the queen.
When Her Majesty the Queen entered the palace, this old servant followed her."
As she said this, there was a hint of nostalgia in the old nanny's eyes, which Concubine Hua of course noticed.
Concubine Hua sneered ironically. What was she nostalgic about? Her mother had trusted her so much and sent her here to help her gain a foothold in the Qin Dynasty. She never thought that she would dare to betray her!
"It's getting late, Nanny. Go back. I'm tired and going to rest," Concubine Hua said, issuing an order for the old nanny to leave.
The old nanny looked at Concubine Hua hesitantly, then finally sighed and left. But just as she reached the door, the old nanny said worriedly, "Your Highness, you're made of iron and rice is like steel. You should still eat a little."
Concubine Hua ignored the old nanny's words and just stood up and left. She was afraid that she would not be able to hold back from attacking her right now.
But her intuition told her that there must be someone else behind this old nanny. So she couldn't let her die, but she also couldn't let her act so boldly anymore.
The next day, Concubine Hua sent the old nanny to the Punishment Department. Any maid or eunuch who entered there would never end up well.
The old nanny knew that things had been exposed, so she didn't resist and just obediently followed the people away.
When Mu Xingrou heard about this, she glanced at Eunuch Hai who was feigning sleep on her bed.
"Speak. What's the matter?" Eunuch Hai's shrill voice came over, scaring Mu Xingrou. But soon she regained her composure.
"That person has been discovered. What should we do about Concubine Hua?" Mu Xingrou got up, walked to Eunuch Hai's side, and sat down, gently massaging his head.
Eunuch Hai sighed comfortably, patted Mu Xingrou's hand, and said, "Your skills are still the best. Keep massaging and don't stop."
"Yes," Mu Xingrou obediently continued massaging.
Eunuch Hai slowly opened his eyes and looked at the bed curtain above him. "If she's been discovered, so be it. Anyway, no one will suspect us. We can just send someone else to poison her in a few days, can't we?"
Mu Xingrou nodded after hearing Eunuch Hai's words, but she always had a bad feeling in her heart. She always felt that they had been discovered.
Because she was absent - minded, her hand that was massaging Eunuch Hai gradually stopped. Eunuch Hai opened his eyes and looked up.
Looking at Mu Xingrou's thoughtful look, he sneered. "Come on, don't worry. I'll definitely fulfill what I promised you."
Saying that, he placed his old hand on Mu Xingrou's chest and gently kneaded it.
"What you promised me yesterday. Shouldn't you make it come true?" Eunuch Hai squinted his eyes and looked at Mu Xingrou.
Hearing Eunuch Hai's words, Mu Xingrou shivered slightly, but she still got up, closed the door, and walked over step by step. Her clothes were casually scattered on the floor.
Eunuch Hai looked at Mu Xingrou with satisfaction. This woman was more sensible than any other woman he had ever controlled. She also had ambition. Although she wasn't very smart, it didn't matter.
...
The bed curtain fluttered, filled with an air of spring.
On this side, after Mu Fengqie returned, she saw Xiujuan basking in the sun in the yard. She seemed to be in a good mood. When she saw Mu Fengqie coming back, she got up and walked over.
"How was it? Were you in any trouble?"
Mu Fengqie shook her head and looked at Xiujuan. "I'm fine. But I still want to talk to you about..."
"I've made up my mind. Don't say anything," Xiujuan said. Just by looking at Mu Fengqie, she knew what she was going to say. But this was a decision she had made after careful consideration, and she wouldn't give it up easily.
