Not children. It is the chess piece named Hua Minh Suong. Before being taken away, Hua Minh Suong suddenly turned his head to look at me. There was both hatred and fear in his eyes.

“Lin Thanh Nguyet, don't be too quick to be complacent.”

I calmly said:

“Miss promise.”

She stopped walking. I seriously reminded her.

“Don't continue to use velvet extract anymore.”

“If you keep using it, it will really harm your body.”

In that moment, her face turned pale. She understood. Thuc Phi also understood. Hua Minh Suong still uses this type of velvet extract. It was given by Concubine Thuc. On the outside, it makes Hua Minh Suong's face rosy and her mood better. But in reality, it makes her more and more impatient, her anger rises, and her mood easily loses control. A chess piece is more likely to lose control. Come the time of need. It's easier to be pushed out to take the blame. After Hua Minh Suong was escorted away. The way Thuc Phi looked at me completely changed. She finally realized.

'Lam Thanh Nguyet' in front of me.

Absolutely not the docile, easy-to-control pawn of the Ministry of Rites as she always imagined. That night. Khuong Dung secretly came to find me. As soon as she entered the door, she put her hands on her chest.

“Scared me to death.”

"When Hua Minh Suong was taken away, her eyes were bloodshot."

I poured her a cup of tea.

“What have you investigated?”

Khuong Dung immediately sat up straight.

“In recent days, she has been coming to Chieu Hoa Palace every day.”

“Plus, I even received a white porcelain box.”

“I saw with my own eyes that she applied the contents of the box to her wrist, and said it was to nourish her vitality.”

“Is it the same kind of velvet gauze you talked about?”

I nodded slightly. Khuong Dung's eyes immediately lit up.

“Are you awesome?”

“Very beneficial.”

She coughed softly.

“So… about letting me out of the palace…”

“Not much longer.”

She immediately clasped her hands in front of her chest.

“Sister Lam, in the future I will definitely set up a longevity tablet to serve you.”

I burst out laughing.

“That doesn't sound like any luck.”

She stuck out her tongue. On the third day after Hua Minh Suong was sent to the Kidney Penalty. She confessed. It wasn't because she couldn't bear the punishment. It's because I asked someone to bring you a sentence.

“If you take all the blame on yourself, will Concubine Thuc really protect the Minister of Military Affairs?”

Hua Minh Suong is not a fool. It's just that she wants to win so much. She always thought that she only needed to rely on Concubine Thuc. Then I will have the opportunity to take advantage of the entrance exam. But when he became a chess piece, he was thrown away. The Minister of Military Affairs may not be able to keep her. She confessed to An aunt. An Co Co is a manager close to Concubine Thuc. Not only did he give high fortune to Hua Minh Suong. She also ordered Hua Minh Suong to monitor my every move. She also secretly transmitted news to Lam Palace. Inform Chu that 'Lam Thanh Nguyet' has kept the card. This clue was also followed back to the Lam family. In Phuong Nghi palace. Ta Phu Loan sat on the phoenix seat and listened to the report from Than Xing Company. His expression was so cold that it made others afraid.

“Thi Chu is really bold.”

"They actually dared to swap beautiful girls to participate in the audition... and even plotted to harm people."

“Senior sister, don't expose this matter right now.”

Ta Phu Loan frowned slightly. I slowly replied:

“If we only expose the exchange of beautiful girls and harming people, at most it will only cure the Lam family's crimes.”

"But in the end, what the Thuc Phi and the To family are secretly planning has not been revealed until now."

She looked at me attentively.

“Do you want to cast a long line to catch big fish?”

She nodded.

“The Su family pulled the Chu family, the Chu family pushed Lam Thanh Nguyet into the palace.”

"Just a daughter of the Imperial Palace, is it really worth it for Thuc to waste her mind and heart to this extent?"

Ta Phu Loan's finger gently tapped the surface of the judgment.

"The Zhou family manages the selection list and also manages the court's etiquette." I said:

"If there is someone in the palace who wants to take action during a grand ceremony, investiture or ceremony, then the Ministry of Rites is the best blade."

Ta Phu Loan's face darkened.

“Do you suspect that Concubine Thuc wants to borrow the Ministry of Rites to plot a situation?”

“It's not just about making arrangements.”

“Maybe you want to change the Crown Prince.”

Ta Phu Loan's eyes immediately turned cold. The emperor was in the reign of Tieu Canh Hanh and had been crowned for six years. The queen had no children, but Concubine Thuc gave birth to the second prince.
