Volume 1: The Life of a Palace Maid Chapter 41 The Traitor

"How could a traitor?" Yu Guiren was surprised, "Fangcao has been taking care of me, and he never left me when his life was the hardest..."

"Yes, yes!" Fangcao shook his hand again, "I am loyal to the nobles, how could it be a traitor?"

"Is that true?" Wei Yingluo forced her to drag her to Guiren Yu and forced her to speak, "Guiren, look, the pearl powder is pure white, and the powder in the fragrant grass nails is obviously yellow. This is not the color of pearl powder at all!"

"Pearl pink is this color!" Fangcao gritted her teeth.

Wei Yingluo immediately took out the pearl powder she brought today. Needless to say, the two were compared, and the real one was clear and false. One was snow-white and pure, like the fine snow in the beginning of winter, and the other was dim and yellow, like the yellow mud footprints on the fine snow.

Yu Guiren's eyes were not blind, and when he saw it, his face turned pale immediately.

"Gui Ren, what about the pearl pills that Fangcao made for you before? Do you still have them?" Wei Yingluo asked again.

"Some." Yu Guiren searched by the pillow for a while, and finally found a porcelain bottle and handed it to Wei Yingluo. "I ate most of it here, and there are still a few left."

Wei Yingluo pulled out the bottle cap and poured the only three pills left in her palm. What caught her eye was a snow light. The three pills were as white as snow.

"Everyone said you misunderstood me..." Fangcao took the opportunity to argue.

Wei Yingluo glanced at her, poured two of them back into the bottle, twisted the remaining one between her fingers, and pinched them hard, the pills were broken, and the powder fell down one after another, spreading a pile of light snow on the table.

The snow was like a star, slightly lit.

"This is definitely not pearl powder." Wei Yingluo dipped her fingers into powder and handed it to Guiren Yu. "I can't see what it is, but the imperial doctors must have seen it."

There was no real ordinary person in the palace. Even the noble man Yu who was bullied in front of him had some knowledge. But when she saw her picking up some powder with her hands, she sniffed it with her nose and eyes, she immediately realized her heart.

"... Of course this is not pearl powder, but shell powder!" Yu Guiren stared at Fangcao with bloodshot eyes, "Fangcao, why do you want to mix fish with pearls and exchange for pearl powder sent by the queen!"

Seeing that the matter could not be hidden, Fangcao immediately knelt down, kowtowed frequently, and said in a crying voice: "I am guilty! My wife is sick and has no money to treat her. She really has no way. She knows that shell powder is cheap and pearl powder is expensive, so she secretly changed the queen's pearl powder, wanting to exchange it for money! Please spare me, for the sake of the servant's careful service!"

Seeing her look pitiful and thinking about her past relationship, Concubine You said with a heartache: "You, you, your mother is sick, just tell me, will I ignore it? It's so disappointing that you did such a thing!"

Hearing that she wanted to let her go, Fangcao was overjoyed: "The slave was confused for a moment..."

"I was confused for a moment?" Wei Yingluo laughed, "No, you are very smart."

The noble man and the fragrant grass were stunned.

"Negotiable, look." Wei Yingluo poured the two pills left in the bottle on the table. "Use cheap shell powder to exchange pearl powder. It looks like a burglary on the surface, but if you look carefully, the shell powder turns yellow, and the shell balls will definitely look varied. But the shell balls given to you by the Fangcao are snow-white on the outside, but there is a little glittering powder inside. If you don't pinch it, you can't tell at all..."

She slowly looked up and stared at the woman with a white complexion in front of her and said, "Her purpose is not for money at all, but for you to eat these fake meatballs without any suspicion."

Guiren Yu couldn't help but raise his hand and hold his throat.

It seemed as if the pearl balls I ate a few days ago returned to her throat, peeling off the snow coat on the surface, and green water venom came out.

She wants to vomit.

"Say!" Wei Yingluo said coldly to Fangcao, "Now you have done something wrong. The master behind you cannot come forward to protect you. Your only way to live is to tell everything out. See if the noble man is willing to forgive you, and to have a love for you in front of the Queen!"

If the matter really hits the queen, will she still have a way out?

Fangcao was really scared now and dared not hide anything anymore. She shouted: "Pin Jia, it was Empress Jia who ordered the slave to do this!"

I thought that the name of Concubine Hui would appear from her mouth, but unexpectedly, such a person suddenly popped up. Concubine Yu was shocked and said, "Princess Jia?"

"Yes." In order to save your life, the fragrant grass and bamboo tube said like beans, "Empress Jia found the slave a few days ago and told me that Yipin has gone, and you are the only master left in Yonghe Palace, but you have been living there and are trembling all day long. Even if you give birth to a prince, you will not be favored. Our Yonghe Palace is destined to be an ice cellar for the rest of your life!"

Yugui was so angry that he trembled all over: "So you betrayed me?"

"No wonder, no wonder." Wei Yingluo figured out something, "Last time in the Imperial Garden, Yu Guiren was attacked by a dog. Not only did you not protect Yu Guiren, you left behind, but instead stepped back from her behind, making her closer to the dog. I guess you were already Jiapin's person at that time, right?"

Fangcao sobbed and dared not reply, hoping that his tears could touch Yu Guiren a little.

"Fangcao, let me ask you, what did you add to the shell powder?" Yu Guiren said coldly.

The fragrant grass was about to speak for a while, and finally said softly: "To change the color of the shell powder, you have to wash it with dye..."

"Bastard!" Yu Guiren could no longer hold back and shouted loudly, "You are so vicious!"

She is pregnant and has toxic dye ingredients. Can she still give birth to healthy children after long-term use?

No matter how much old love was, it was wiped out by all kinds of vicious methods of Fangcao. Concubine Yu turned her head fiercely, and even looked at her, he was disgusted: "Yingluo, take her to see the queen!"

"No, no!" Fangcao rushed over and cried, "I have said everything. Don't take me to see the queen!"

Concubine Yu closed her eyes and refused to look at her cruelly. Wei Yingluo beside her thoughts for a moment, but suddenly said, "Fangcao, when Jiapin handed you the things, would anyone else see it?"

Fangcao shook her head.

As expected, Wei Yingluo said to Yu Guiren: "The other party uses good means, no one can prove it, and there is not enough physical evidence. If you sue it rashly, you may even be beaten by the other party, saying that Yonghe Palace intends to frame it."

Yu Guiren was stunned: "This..."

"Instead of dealing with this traitor now and letting the other party change someone we don't know to continue to harm you, it's better to keep her for the time being." Wei Yingluo glanced at Fangcao coldly, "In this way, she will think you are still eating toxic shell powder..."

Concubine Yu thought for a while and found that this was indeed the best way, at least there was no need to fight against the light and the dark, and always be alert to the cold knife from behind.

"Just do as you say." Yu Guiren nodded heavily, "Fangcao, if Jiapin sent someone to ask, you will say that I will eat all the shell powder she sent..."

"We have to set a deadline." Wei Yingluo thought for a while, "It's only half a month later. You go and notify Jiapin yourself and say that the shell powder has been used up, so she can send new ones! Do you understand!"

Fangcao had no other choice, so she could only be the double-faced spy and knelt down and said, "Yes!"

That's good.

Wei Yingluo looked down at her, feeling cold in her heart.

Her actions were not only to save Concubine Yu, but also to save her sincere queen.

After all, if something happens to Concubine Yu, the people below will soon find out that the source of the pearl powder comes from Changchun Palace. Whether it is pearl powder, ginseng or other supplements, as long as the traitor Fangcao is there, you can always start the attack.

Wei Yingluo had already expected this.

"The mastermind behind this likes to frame and frame. The one we send in our palace is pearl powder. She must have taken action on it." Wei Yingluo thought to herself, "I used the trick and caught you as expected. I just don't know when Concubine Hui will find that there is a seemingly loyal traitor by her..."

It was vast and a long line passed through the corridor.

Every two eunuchs carried a wooden barrel, which was covered with red silk, and were covered tightly. At first glance, it looked like a newlywed bride covered with a red veil, with her feet not touching the ground.

"What is that, mysterious and mysterious." Concubine Hui sat in the pavilion and pointed at the team in front of her.

"The litchi tree that the governor of Fujian Province has been tributed for a year." Jiapin has been making news and answered at once. "There are a total of 100 barrels. Except for the rewards to the princes and ministers, the rest are sent to Changchun Palace."

A trace of jealousy flashed in Concubine Hui's eyes: "I haven't seen a single one here, but I even sent the trees to her."

Through thousands of mountains and rivers, we transported all the way from Fujian. Because of the unacceptable environment, most of the fruits fell, and the rest were distributed to the empress dowager, queen, concubines, and favored clans and ministers in the palace. Each of them could get a taste, even if it was a great blessing, which shows the weight of the queen in the emperor's heart.

"There are only a few trees on the left and right." Jiapin comforted.

"Yes, there are only a few trees on the left." Concubine Hui stroked the snowball in her arms, "The emperor is really good to treat the queen. I treat you... well, right?"

Jiapin was stunned and felt that she was pointing something. She quickly replied carefully: "Of course, I can have the current situation, thanks to the care of the imperial concubine."
