Chapter 838: Some truth, but not much
Before Jiang Hao could receive good news from Xu Xing, she unexpectedly learned from the spy planted by Concubine Shu that Concubine Shu was under house arrest by the emperor.
Who is Concubine Shu?
Except for the fact that she did not ascend to the throne of queen, her favor and status in the harem were unique.
Compared with Empress Ji back then, she is even worse.
Why would Emperor Suwen ban her from traveling?
The spy couldn't explain anything either. He only said that when he went to the palace to report the news, he didn't see the imperial concubine in person. The gates of Yongning Palace were also closed, as if she was facing the wall to reflect on her mistakes.
"Does the Duke's Mansion know this news?"
The spy shook his head: "Everyone in the palace is tight-lipped, so it shouldn't have spread out."
Well, the spy that Concubine Shu placed next to her became her spy because of the control of the antidote.
How funny!
Jiang Hao threw the antidote to him, thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you go back to the palace and come to me in ten days or half a month to get the antidote, and tell me about the palace."
Spy: “…” Something seems wrong!
Seeing that he was still standing there, Jiang Hao asked, "Didn't you understand?"
"County Lord, this is not good, right?"
This isn't just rebelling against Tiangang, he's betraying his master!
The spy acted very embarrassed, and he was indeed in a dilemma. No matter what choice he made, both would lead to death.
Fortunately, the master of Jiahe County was kind and did not let him do anything that was against the will of heaven. He also asked him to report some daily matters to the imperial concubine regularly. Otherwise, if it were someone else, he would have died long ago.
"I didn't ask you to hurt the Imperial Concubine. Isn't this also a way for me to care about her?"
There seems to be some truth to that, but not much.
"This county lady cares about her, naturally for the sake of the Duke of Wei's Mansion and the Crown Prince..."
When Jiang Hao said this, he knew that the spies had been sent out, and Princess Jiahe was also considering her future in-laws and caring about their family, and indeed she had not harmed the Imperial Concubine.
"Yes, I understand. Goodbye!"
"Go!"
In the past few months, Jiang Hao almost fooled this spy.
However, the bottom line is that she controls his life in her hands. Otherwise, why would she be able to control him?
What mistake did Concubine Shu make that made Emperor Suwen put her under house arrest and keep her mouth shut to the outside world?
Nothing in the world is difficult for one who sets his mind to it. If Jiang Hao wanted to find out, it didn't take much effort.
She made a special trip to the palace to report to Emperor Suwen about the condition of the Prince of Wei. She really tried her best, but there was nothing she could do. She was willing to return the medical fees given by Jiang Huaili in full.
The consultation fee was not paid by Emperor Su Wen, and he was well aware of the relationship between Jiang Huaili's money and the Prince of Wei's Mansion. He said, "No one stipulates that a doctor can definitely cure a patient," and sent Jiang Hao away.
I don't intend to pursue this matter.
Jiang Hao didn't really want to return the money, she was just pretending.
When she entered the palace, Eunuch De personally escorted her a few steps, and naturally she found out that Concubine Shu was under house arrest.
Eunuch De wanted to say more, but he couldn't. He could only say a few simple words and then hurried back to serve the Emperor.
After learning the reason, Jiang Hao was also filled with emotion. He didn't know whether to say that Concubine Shu was deeply in love or that Emperor Suwen was unkind and ungrateful. Why did he bring up the old things from more than ten years ago?
The key is, it happened at a coincidence!
But the one who has the most headaches in the whole thing is Eunuch Qu. The Imperial Concubine Shu, whom he just married, has fallen out of favor again. The road ahead of him... is not going to be easy!
