Chapter 231 Mother
But she couldn't sleep. She didn't know whether her daughter could give her anything good. She had to enjoy herself for now.
Wei Yangshi pushed aside the curtain of the sedan chair and saw the eunuch still following respectfully outside. She wanted to ask how that... person was doing now, and also wanted to take the opportunity to show off, so she asked, half tentatively and half boasting, "Eunuch, who do you think is more senior, the imperial concubine or the noble lady?"
The person who came to pick up Wei Yang was Jinzhong's apprentice Gao Feng. He immediately understood what Madam Wei meant, and said with a little envy, "Of course it's the Imperial Concubine, Madam Wei, you are so blessed to be favored by Imperial Concubine Ling."
Wei Yang smiled complacently, then she rolled her eyes and asked again, "Then I'll ask you again, where is that person... now?"
Gao Feng frowned slightly. He looked at Madam Wei in confusion and said in a flattering tone, "Madam Wei, I don't know who you are referring to."
Wei Yang poked her head out and looked around to see if there was a threatening figure like that. After making sure that he was not there, she spoke cautiously, "It's that Jinzhong...Eunuch."
Gao Feng suddenly realized what was going on. With a hint of joy on his face, he said, "Eunuch Jinzhong, he is not here now. The emperor just asked him to get your gift."
Wei Yang's heart, which had just relaxed, tensed up again. If Jinzhong was still alive, wouldn't she have to live in fear every day? She asked again, "Who is older, you or Eunuch Jinzhong?"
Gao Feng was startled. He quickly turned around to see if Jinzhong was there. He didn't want him to hear such words. Gao Feng had no intention of getting promoted. He just wanted to follow his master obediently and receive the reward.
If he really had to face the emperor every day, given the emperor's strange temper, wouldn't he be destined to follow in Li Yu's footsteps, be given some crazy concubine, and then be killed?
Gao Feng was really anxious. How could he say such a thing so carelessly? He pleaded with a bitter face and said, "Madam Wei, please don't say such things. I have never had any second thoughts about my master."
"When you ask this, aren't you putting me on the spot?" Gao Feng looked miserable. He was really impressed by this ignorant Madam Wei. He thought that his master had called him here on purpose to ask him to curry favor with Concubine Ling and give him a good job.
Oh, never mind. Gao Feng was originally curious as to why the master only said that he should not pay attention to Madam Wei. Now it seems that he should really listen to Eunuch Zhong's advice.
Gao Feng didn't dare to talk to Wei Yang anymore, and Wei Yang didn't dare to ask any more questions.
As soon as she opened her mouth to ask, she asked about Jinzhong's apprentice.
Disciple, disciple, that madman must be more powerful. Didn’t you hear this servant keep saying "The emperor orders, the emperor orders"? I’m afraid that after a few years, that Jinzhong will be more popular in front of the emperor.
Wei Yang was filled with fear. Fortunately, she did not say anything bad about Jinzhong, otherwise this eunuch would have sold him out to her.
Before she knew that Gao Feng was Jinzhong's apprentice, Wei Yang thought that Gao Feng looked quite honest and kind, and it would be nice if he could be a servant in her family.
Now that she knew he was Jinzhong's man, no matter how Mrs. Wei looked at Gao Feng, she felt that there was panic underneath his honest appearance, and that his ordinary little eyes also hid ambition.
Gao Feng lowered his head, and cold sweat broke out on his back.
Jinzhong is a smiling tiger, ruthless, and imperceptible. Li Yu blocked his position, and now even his body is nowhere to be found. If Madam Wei's nonsense arouses the suspicion of the master, he will be in trouble.
Gao Feng was so scared that he didn't even notice the two big mosquito bites on the back of his hand. When he noticed it, the itching was unbearable. He lowered his head and quietly scratched it with his other hand.
Mrs. Wei secretly peeked at him through the gap in the carriage curtain and saw that he was acting sneaky, as if he was taking something out of his sleeve?
Is it possible that this master-apprentice relationship is also something that cannot be seen by others?
Are you going to silence her just because of this?
Wei Yang covered her chest and shivered in the carriage. She knew, she knew, this was some kind of literati phrase, forming a clique or private faction?
Yes, it was the term "forming a clique" that Zuo Lu had mentioned when he was studying at home. She had discovered another secret.
It was so horrible that she covered her lips tightly, trying not to cry. Mrs. Wei cursed Gao Feng's ancestors in her heart.
Are you sick? Why are you telling me a secret that cannot be told?
By the time they arrived at Yongshou Palace, Mrs. Wei's eyes were swollen and her legs were shaking. It was not a hot day, but she broke out in a cold sweat.
Gao Feng wanted to reach out to help her, but Madam Wei quickly ran sideways for two steps and said, "No, no, I can walk by myself."
Then she held on to the wall and tremblingly walked into the gate of Yongshou Palace.
Gao Feng was confused, but he didn't follow him in. He sent the man there, and his job was done. If he was too close to Madam Wei, she might ask him in front of her master, "Why doesn't the emperor let you be his most capable eunuch?"
So how is he going to explain it?
While on the way to pick up Concubine Ling's mother to Yongshou Palace, he brainwashed Madam Wei and made Concubine Ling abandon her master and support him instead?
Just him?
Oh my god, this can really kill you.
Gao Feng hurried back to the Yangxin Palace. He had to stay away from the Yongshou Palace.
* Yongshou Palace
As soon as Wei Yang entered the room, she saw her daughter sitting there wearing gold and silver, and sitting next to her was the eunuch.
He looked at her with that disgusting, sticky, and vicious look like a snake, and he was still laughing for some reason. Mrs. Wei felt the hairs on her back stand up. She was really afraid that Jinzhong would suddenly stand up and stab her.
If she died, her son would definitely not survive since he had no feelings for Yan Wan.
Wei Yang saluted tremblingly and greeted the two people nervously. Lan Cui hurriedly helped her up.
After finally standing up trembling, Wei Yangshi immediately forced a smile from her face, her old face full of wrinkles, and she rushed into Zhong and said in a flattering manner, "Oh, my dear son-in-law, why are you here too!"
The corners of Jinzhong's lips curled up slightly. He couldn't deny that he felt extremely happy inside. He really wanted to laugh three times and then say to Ling Yunche, did you hear that? I am your son-in-law.
But this is not the purpose today. Jinzhong said, "My dear mother-in-law, I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you very much."
He put down the teacup neither lightly nor heavily, and it made a crisp sound when it hit the table.
Wei Yang thought that this was a signal for someone to kill someone by smashing the cup, so she quickly knelt down again and said, "My dear son-in-law, I didn't mean to come to the palace. My daughter likes you, and I fully support you."
"It's just that the old emperor insisted that I go to the palace, so I had to come. There's nothing I could do about it." Wei Yang said this quickly.
