Chapter 379 Wen Yi 8
Cao Qinmo frowned slightly, weighing the pros and cons in her mind.
She knew that although Empress Dowager Uya was advanced in years, she had cultivated her influence in the palace for decades.
With so many eyes and ears in the palace, they wanted to kill a princess who was out of favor or a concubine.
That was easy, without anyone noticing.
Cao Qinmo never dared to make any moves against the Empress Dowager.
But unexpectedly, in her dream, she would die at the hands of the Empress Dowager.
She was used and then died, leaving Wen Yi, at such a young age, to suffer in the palace.
Why? Isn't it good enough for the Empress Dowager to enjoy wealth and luxury in the palace?
The Empress Dowager was Wenyi's grandmother, yet she showed no compassion whatsoever.
Since that's the case, Cao Qinmo no longer needs to blindly respect the Empress Dowager.
She decided to first use Consort Hua's influence to fight against Zhen Huan and others.
In addition, they also wanted to sow discord between Consort Hua and the Empress Dowager.
She couldn't deal with the Empress Dowager on her own, but Consort Hua was favored by the Empress.
He held imperial power and had General Nian as his backer.
It might succeed, as long as the Empress Dowager dies.
The Empress lost her powerful backer, the Empress Dowager.
Could an empress who was neither favored nor from a prominent family still remain in power?
A sinister glint flashed in Cao Qinmo's eyes.
A slight upturn at the corners of his mouth revealed a cold smile.
Soon Cao Qinmo remembered something else: she had heard that Qi Yuebin had once been tutored by the Empress Dowager.
What about the miscarriage of the child that Consort Hua was six months pregnant with back then...?
Thinking of this, Cao Qinmo felt a chill in her heart. The child in Consort Hua's womb was the Empress Dowager's own grandson.
When Consort Hua entered the palace, she was immediately favored by the emperor. If she were to safely give birth to a son...
That was a great threat to the empress who had long been out of favor and had lost her child.
It's hard to guarantee that the Empress Dowager won't, in order to protect the Empress's position, have Qi Yuebin take action.
Caused Consort Hua to miscarry
Would the Empress Dowager really do this for the sake of her niece, the Empress, who is related to her by blood?
And will it kill your future grandchildren?
She had previously suspected that the Empress was the mastermind behind Consort Hua's miscarriage.
But Qi Yuebin was cunning and, after all, the emperor's first woman.
She may not be at the Empress's beck and call.
But the Empress Dowager, who had once tutored Qi Yuebin, certainly could...
Moreover, the Empress Dowager was the Emperor's birth mother, and in order to please her...
Qi Yuebin is very likely to agree.
This imperial harem is indeed a cannibalistic place; the more you think about it, the more chilling it becomes.
If the incident involving Consort Hua back then was truly related to the Empress Dowager and the Empress...
That is the deep-seated hatred of killing one's son, the hatred of killing one's son.
No mother would give up
Cao Qinmo felt more and more that there was more to this matter than met the eye.
If things are as I suspect, then the conflict between Consort Hua and the Empress Dowager is irreconcilable.
She decided to remain silent for now and wait for the right opportunity to reveal the matter to Consort Hua.
If Consort Hua has any suspicions, she will definitely try her best to find out the truth.
Cao Qinmo sat alone in her room for a long time, lost in thought.
Cao Qinmo had many questions for Wen Yi, but Wen Yi was currently ill.
She needed to rest more, and she didn't want to wake Wen Yi.
Only one person can guess.
"Your Highness, Eunuch Su has come to deliver the new wet nurse and the young maids who will be serving you."
Yinxiu's soft voice interrupted Cao Qinmo's thoughts.
Cao Qinmo stood up and walked out.
Upon arriving at the outer hall, Cao Qinmo saw
Inside the outer hall, Su Peisheng was waiting with two newly selected wet nurses and two young palace maids.
Upon seeing Cao Qinmo emerge, Su Peisheng first greeted her with a smile and a bow:
"Your Highness, His Majesty has instructed me to select the wet nurse and maidservants to serve Princess Wenyi for your inspection."
Cao Qinmo sat upright with her sleeves tucked in, her gaze slowly sweeping over the four people.
The two wet nurses that Su Peisheng brought were both in their early twenties.
With a robust build and ruddy complexion, it was clear that the horse had just finished its postpartum confinement period;
The other two palace maids were eleven or twelve years old, with bright and clever eyes.
Yet he kept his head down and looked meek, revealing nothing of his thoughts.
"We, your servants, pay our respects to Your Highness and Mistress." The four of them kowtowed in unison.
