773. Chapter 773 Sow Discord

Ye Zhen asked lightly, "Did she tell you anything?"

"No." Boss Yu lowered his head, his eyes flickered, as if he didn't want to say too much.

"Oh." Ye Zhen smiled slightly, "I just want to know why Aunt Cheng can't bear to think about it, and she would throw herself into a well. From Ben Gong's point of view, she is not such a hard-to-think person."

Master Yu said in a low voice, "Your servant doesn't know either."

Ye Zhen could see that she didn't want to talk about Aunt Cheng's affairs, probably because she wanted to protect herself, since the Empress Dowager might be involved in this matter.

"So you don't know." Ye Zhen smiled lightly, "Your weaving department lacks a chief, do you have a suitable candidate?"

"Ms. Wang, the candidate sent by Director Wang is the best candidate for the Weaving Department." Chief Yu said in a low voice.

Ye Zhen chuckled in her heart, and gave such an ambiguous answer again, it seems that the master Yu really knows how to protect himself wisely.

"I have another candidate. There is a court lady named Cheng Yi in the Weaving Department who is very skilled. I think she is more suitable to be the vice-principal." Ye Zhen asked with a faint smile.

Director Yu's eyes lit up slightly, "It's really her blessing that the empress thinks of her."

Ye Zhen nodded lightly, "I heard that this Cheng Yi is also from Aunt Cheng's hometown, who are she and Aunt Cheng?"

"This... Numaid has never heard of her relationship with Aunt Cheng." Mr. Yu said.

Ye Zhen didn't intend to delve into this issue, she smiled lightly and let Master Yu back down.

"Niang Niang, this Master Yu looks honest and honest, but he is actually a cunning one." Hong Ling handed Ye Zhen a cup of tea.

"She's not slick, but she knows how to survive. Aunt Cheng is a person close to the Queen Mother. Since the Queen Mother doesn't want to pursue it, she must know that there is a problem. It seems that no one in the palace thinks about it. It's so simple." Ye Zhen laughed thoughtfully, it's okay, if life is too simple, she would still feel bored.

Over there, Aunt Pan has handed over the list of deputy principals to Manager Wang.

"This is..." Director Wang looked at Aunt Pan with hesitation on his face, "It seems that the candidate for the deputy head has changed?"

"It's a change. The original few were not safe enough to do things. My mother has observed these few and thinks they are better candidates." Aunt Pan said with a smile.

Manager Wang shook his head, "Aunt Pan, to tell you the truth, the candidates for the deputy directors were all highly valued by the former Queen Mother. Isn't it a little bad for the Queen to change people at this time?"

Aunt Pan raised her eyebrows and glanced at Director Wang, "Director Wang, the queen mother is still unwell and recuperating in Chengde Mountain Villa. Is it possible that such trivial things in the palace will bother her old man? It used to be because there was no empress in the palace, but now It’s already different, could it be possible that with the Empress Dowager, the old Empress Dowager needs to bother to take care of the harem?”

"Your words make sense." Manager Wang nodded with a smile, "Then I'll go to each division to read it out."

In the afternoon, all the divisions knew that the empress had directly replaced the original vice-principal candidate. As for whether the new candidate was hers, it was unknown, but this incident made many people feel uncomfortable. Increased vigilance.

...

...

After Murong Ke left, the Empress Dowager felt more and more bored in Chengde Villa, and began to think about going back to the palace, but when she thought that there was still Lu Yaoyao in the palace, she didn't want to go back.

"Empress Dowager, Old Concubine An is here to visit you." The maid came in and whispered to the Queen Mother.

"Why is she here?" The queen mother was surprised, she didn't have such a friendship with Princess An, why did she come to visit her? "Let her in."

Old Prince An worked on the carriage for a long time, and his waist was hardened into a plank, but he still insisted on coming to see the Queen Mother.

"My concubine pays her respects to the queen mother." The old concubine An was supported by the maid to salute.

"Quickly stop saluting, and sit down quickly, seeing that you are not comfortable walking anymore." The queen mother frowned and said, "Why did you come all the way?"

Old Princess An said with a smile, "I'm thinking about it, so I came to visit you."

The queen mother sneered, "You'd better tell the truth to Aijia, Aijia doesn't believe such words."

"Empress Dowager, this concubine really misses your days in the palace. With you here, everything is well-behaved. Now... hey!" Old Princess An sighed.

"Now that there is a queen in the palace, isn't it more customary?" asked the Queen Mother.

Old Princess An almost didn't howl, "Queen Mother, you don't know, the queen is... really selfish, haven't you heard what she said? The concubine just proposed to award the chastity memorial archway to the widows of Jin Kingdom , She even scolded the concubine as pedantic and cruel, she misunderstood the concubine's sincerity, and humiliated the concubine in front of everyone, the concubine would have no face to enter the palace in the future."

The queen mother's face darkened, and she said angrily, "You are right. How could she humiliate you? Besides, you are still her elder, so she should give you some face. Could it be that she thought that becoming a queen would be a shame?" Can it be lawless?"

"Mother, you still don't know what happened at that time, how can you think that the queen did something wrong based on one-sided words?" Murong Yi walked in from the outside with a smile, looking at Old Princess An with vigilant eyes.

When he just heard that Old Princess An came, he felt that something was wrong. If it was true, he wanted to sow discord in front of the Queen Mother.

Old Princess An said, "My lord, you are not in the palace either, so how do you know what I said is wrong?"

"Brother Huang said before that it is only natural for widows to remarry, and there should be no order to stop them. Now the Empress is just following Brother Huang's words. Could it be that this is not right? Is it right for the Empress to oppose Brother Huang?" Murongyi said. He looked at Old Princess An with a piercing gaze.

"I..." Old Princess An was furious.

The Queen Mother waved impatiently, "Okay, okay, just a few words, you can argue for Lu Yaoyao, Old Princess An is still your elder."

Murong Yi said with a smile, "Mother, am I afraid that you will be misled?"

Old Concubine An snorted coldly, "The empress is indeed capable. She has only been in the palace for a few days, and she has cleaned up all the principals of the divisions. I heard that even the deputy chief was replaced by her."

When the queen mother heard this, her face immediately sank, "You want to fight for power in the palace so soon? You don't take Aijia too seriously!"

"Mother, maybe those people are unusable, otherwise why would the queen change?" Murong Yi said with a smile, "Don't listen to so many gossips, they are usually untrue."

"Little prince, do you think I'm sowing discord?" Elder Princess An asked with a sneer.
