THE REVENGE OF FOX CONSORT

CHAPTER 89. Invitation from the Eastern Palace

***The residence of Prince Wei Bu Yi***

Tonight Ying Ying's mood was overjoyed at getting the three good news. The first good news from Li Chang Le's spirit regarding the defeat of the Western Wu Kingdom forces for the third time. The successive defeats made the enemy's army's spirit weak. Even many of the fleeing troops evaded attack from Wei Bu Yi's forces and General Li Jin's forces.

The second good news was the pigeon letter from Wei Bu Yi. Wei Bu Yi informed Ying Ying that the war with the Western Wu Kingdom was expected to end at most another week so that Wei Bu Yi could return to Ying Ying's side.

While the third news was the most awaited news by Ying Ying. Wei Bu Yi's spies at Queen Wen's Palace reported that Queen Wen invited Chang Ru and Wei Wu Xian to her palace.

Ying Ying was confident that he would soon get an invitation to meet Chang Ru. Thus, Wei Bu Yi's perfect plan was already heading towards the completion of the last stage.

The sooner Queen Wen's crimes are exposed, the sooner Ying Ying and Wei Bu Yi can lead a quiet and happy life. Ying Ying was already impatient with Wei Bu Yi going to every town and enjoying the famous little snack there.

***

In the morning the guards of the House of Prince Wei Bu Yi brought an invitation letter delivered by one of the servants from the Eastern Palace.

Ying Ying smiled lightly reading the contents of the invitation letter, while Tan Xiang and Wan who were by Ying Ying's side were curious about the contents of the invitation letter.

They both suspected the invitation letter was from Li Chang Ru because Chang Ru was the only person from the Eastern Palace who had a familial relationship with Ying Ying.

"Tan Xiang's. This afternoon accompany me to the East Palace to attend the birthday celebration of Grand Consort Yang Zi. Prepare one jade bracelet as a gift!"

"Okay, Wang Fei!"

Ying Ying admitted that Queen Wen was very clever using the Eastern Palace instead of Queen Wen's own palace.

Ever since Emperor Wei transferred all court power behind from Queen Wen's hands to Consort Ming Lan, Queen Wen's court was subject to close scrutiny from palace guards on Emperor Wei's orders.

While in the Eastern Palace, Queen Wen was able to freely carry out her plans because the Eastern Palace belonged to Wei Wu Xian.

"I must bring all my concocted pills to the Eastern Palace just in case!" inner Ying Ying.

Two weeks of discussion with Physician Chen regarding the treatment techniques made Ying Ying successfully concoct several types of poison pills as well as new antidote pills.

The Eastern Palace was like a tiger cage so Ying Ying had to prepare everything well so as not to fall prey.

***

During the day the horse carriage was sent from the Eastern Palace specifically to pick up Ying Ying. Even Ying Ying was not allowed to bring a single servant. This made Tan Xiang even more worried.

Tan Xiang whispered in Ying Ying's ear so as not to be heard by the horse coachman.

"It is better that Wang Fei reasoned unwell and refused to go to the Eastern Palace. Tan Xiang was worried that the crown princess would harm Wang Fei. After all Prince Wei Bu Yi was not in the residence at the moment."

"It's okay, Tan Xiang! Chang Ru can't hurt me!" said Ying Ying confidently.

Tan Xiang was still feeling worried after Ying Ying Ying's departure with the carriage from the Eastern Palace. Tan Xiang decided to send a pigeon letter to Eunuch Da Duo to let Wei Bu Yi know of Ying Ying Ying's departure to the Eastern Palace.

***Eastern Institutions***

Dayang at the Eastern Palace waited for Ying Ying's arrival at the main gate and immediately escorted Ying Ying to the room, where Yang Zi's birthday celebration was held. Ying Ying handed the box containing the jade bracelet from her to the palace lady so that the palace lady handed the gift box to Yang Zi.

The room was very crowded and full of invited guests. Almost all of the guests were women. They all greeted Ying Ying with a wide smile.

"Mom Yi Wang Fei!"

Ying Ying replied with a nod of his head, but the curiosity in his heart was immense as the women invited by Yang Zi on average all had unattractive looks.

Princess Tang Yan was being friendly towards Ying Ying as if the two of them were close friends who had known each other for decades. Princess Tang Yan sat right beside Ying Ying.

Ying Ying also followed the play that was being played by Princess Tang Yan. Ying Ying sensed that there was a hidden plan from Princess Tang Yan against her.

It wasn't just Princess Tang Yan who was being friendly towards Ying Ying. But Yang Zi also did the same.

Yang Zi introduced one by one her invited guests to Ying Ying. It turned out that they were all daughters of the concubines of the palace officials. This was the first time they had received such a special invitation from the Eastern Palace that their enthusiasm and excitement was immense.

Every time Emperor Wei held a dinner in the palace, officials would bring official wives as well as beautiful, handsome, handsome sons and daughters, and it was interesting that they were all very surprised to get an impromptu invitation from Yang Zi.

They did not reject the invitation. They wore the best hanfu to attend Yang Zi's birthday celebration.

"Why did Yang Zi invite them?" inner Ying Ying.

Ying Ying's question immediately got an answer after Queen Wen and Wei Wu Xian came. The women stared at Wei Wu Xian with sparkling eyes, but none of them received any direct attention from Wei Wu Xian.

"Yang Zi was afraid that Wei Wu Xian would choose a concubine again so as to deliberately invite those women who couldn't possibly attract Wei Wu Xian's attention!" inner Ying Ying.

Ying Ying and all the women who were in the room paid their respects to Queen Wen and Wei Wu Xian. The ladies and gentlemen of the Eastern Palace immediately served a delicious meal on the table.

Wei Wu Xian had never let go of Ying Ying's gaze so much that it made Ying Ying feel extremely disturbed, but Ying Ying Ying pretended to be unaware of it and acted calm.

Princess Tang Yan poured the wine repeatedly into Ying Ying's cup and invited her toast. Ying Ying was already eating the drunk antidote pill first so whatever wine he drank had already turned into ordinary water.

"Main concubine Yang Zi! Why doesn't the crown princess look?" ying Ying asked suddenly.

Ying Ying's question made the faces of Queen Wen and Wei Wu Xian beaming. Their original plan was to ask Ying Ying to meet Chang Ru. Unexpectedly, Ying Ying himself asked Chang Ru's whereabouts.

This made Queen Wen's plan even easier to execute. Wei Wu Xian became impatient to have Li Chang Le aka Ying Ying as quickly as possible.

"The crown prince is sick and resting in the room," Yang Zi replied.

Wei Wu Xian stood up from his seat and walked over to Ying Ying.

"Chang Ru must be happy if you visit her. I'll drive you."

"Thank you crown prince!"

"I also want to visit the crown princess!" princess Tang Yan.

The three of them left the room to meet Chang Ru.
