Chapter 200 The Masked Girl in the Hall of Wude
In a side hall in Wude Hall where female officials live, a masked palace maid looked at Lu Congbi with her arms held her arms.
The female official Lu wiped tears in her hands while flipping through the manuscript on the table with her trembling hands, her lips trembling, making people unable to hear what she was saying.
"Madam Lu, this is copied from the Ministry of Justice. You know it now. Alas, if you say this may be destiny, you can see that the one who betrays Duke Duke is Changsun Anye. Now the son died at the hands of Changsun Chong. The Changsun family is really the nemesis of your Du family."
After a while, the female official Lu wiped away her tears after suffering and looked at the masked palace maid with a gloomy face: "Why tell me this, what exactly do the people behind you want to do?" In the past few years in this harem, she is naturally not an ordinary person who can get into the title of female official.
I only found out that my son was a bandit on the mountain last year. If it weren't for some intentions, why would they have put so much effort into helping me convey this last news?
Papa..., seeing Lu Congbi so calm, the masked palace maid couldn't help but applaud her: "My master is really not a mistake. He is a person who can do big things.
I am worthy of being a lady from an official family. Even though I am out of breath, this kind of demeanor is really admirable. I don’t believe you don’t want to avenge you.”
After hearing the masked woman's thrilling words, Lu Congbi sneered a few times, pointed at himself and said, "So what if you want to take revenge! Look at how can I fight against the Changsun family who is powerful in the court and the country?"
"Of course you are all just the Changsun family. There are prime ministers, generals, queens in the harem, and of course future queens. What can you, a little female official, do?"
The masked woman looked at Lu Congbi, who looked even more depressed, stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder, and said, "But there is no chance at all. Isn't there any saying that a thousand-mile dike collapsed from an ant hole? They also have weaknesses. As long as this weakness is moved, this huge family will collapse instantly like a mountain collapse."
Hearing that there was still a chance, Lu Congbi's already gray eyes lit up again. He quickly grabbed the masked woman's arm, raised her head and asked, "You said, their weakness is there. As long as you can take revenge, I can do anything, even if I can go to hell."
Haha… “That’s right. As long as you can avenge your whole family, what’s the point of a bad life? Instead of enduring like this every day, it’s better to vent your hatred and reunite with your family.”
After breaking free from Lu Congbi's hand, the masked woman took out a dagger and placed it on the table, and said softly: "Just kill Changsun Yue, you can break the future of the Changsun family. This dagger has been poisoned and sealed with blood. I don't need to say what to do."
Isn't this a joke when Lu Congbi heard the masked woman ask him to kill Shanggong in Shanggong Bureau? Who among all the people in the harem, big and small, knew that Changsun Yue was the crown princess appointed by the emperor and empress, and he would be enthroned when the crown prince became an adult.
But what if you kill her? The Changsun family should still be prime minister, and the general can continue to do it. In her opinion, this is not a good idea.
"I don't understand what the relationship between killing her and the defeat of the Changsun family. At most, they will have to have one less queen. After listening to your suggestions, not only will I not be able to avenge my revenge, but I will also have to take my own life. That would be too worth it."
Seeing that Lu Congbi was a little unhappy, the masked woman sat down calmly, stared at her tightly, and said in a leisurely voice:
"I just praised you for being smart, but I didn't expect to understand such a simple question. You are the female official of the Wude Palace. Once you assassinate Changsun Yue, how could Changsun Wuji give up? He will inevitably turn against the King of Wei."
"But you have also seen Your Majesty's favor for the King of Wei. How could he allow his son to be hurt? He will definitely try his best to get rid of this enemy for you. How about it, you can understand now!"
After the masked woman finished speaking, Lu Congbi fell into deep thought. She kept measuring, and it was indeed not to mention that what others said was a little reasonable.
Although she is not of high rank, she has been working in the Wude Hall for a while. The King of Wei has been enough for the court officials to gauge the throne for a day or two. She has always been a major concern in the Eastern Palace.
Changsun Wuji, who assisted the Eastern Palace, also regarded other princes as nails and thorns in their palms, but unfortunately he never had a chance. The forces on both sides were like a pile of dry firewood, and doing this now is equivalent to adding a fire to them.
"I can't get up early without any power. I think my master has been under the pressure of Changsun's lineage. There are only a few noble masters in this palace, so I'm too lazy to guess. But there are only one conditions. After I die, I will find the bodies of my husband and son and bury us together."
As early as the court came to search the house, Lu Congbi's heart would have been dead. If there was not a son outside, she would have solved herself with a rope.
Now that there is such a chance, she will certainly not let it go easily. No matter who the masked woman is, she is undoubtedly a person with great hands and eyes. Isn’t it good for her to praise the Changsun lineage?
Even the Ministry of Justice can get the declaration, and this small request is just a matter of hooking up for others.
"As long as things come true, of course, it will be as you wish, but you want..."
Three days, Shanggong Bureau
Although Changsun Yue's actual work was only responsible for the matters of the Eastern Palace, in order to allow her niece to get into the state as soon as possible, the queen issued a special order to come here to deal with some palace affairs within half a month. The female officials between the palaces would also rush to please the uncrowned crown princess this day.
"Sir Shanggong, Ning Xin Palace's book requesting repair has been on for a month. Concubine Yang sent a subordinate to see when...."
"Sir Shanggong, Shangyi Bureau's purchase of Xining Palace is not expected to be as good as Empress Wei's wishes. You see, you have to approve the repurchase documents..."
"Master Shanggong, Zhang Cairen from Weixin Pavilion has just received the title of His Majesty and needs to add some personnel. You can see what regulations should be..."
Although these are trivial matters, these women in the harem all started to compete with these trivial matters. You should know that there is only one emperor, so wouldn’t it be boring if the rest of them didn’t look for something.
What's more, the strong-willed queen of Changsun stood there, and they had to consider the consequences if they wanted to make things worse. Let's talk about the concubines in the Da'an Palace, all of whom were powerful in the palace because of their seniority, but as soon as the queen came forward, they would not dare to say a fart like a little chicken.
