Chapter Thirty-Three: Arranging Xue Xuan to Enter the Palace
After the concubines paid their respects, they all went back. Long Chuxia only left Concubine Qin behind. Concubine Qin was uneasy. She was actually the biggest victim, but now she was full of guilt and concealed the truth from the Queen Mother and deceived the Emperor. She had committed a crime.
It is a serious crime to deceive the emperor
Living such an uneasy life every day, pain and guilt constantly haunted her. She couldn't eat well or sleep well. She lost nearly ten pounds in just half a month.
Long Chuxia saw her uneasiness. She was already thin, but now she was even more skinny and her eyes were pitifully big.
She ordered Xiaoxun to bring the stew and said to Concubine Qin: "Drink it!"
Concubine Qin was wondering about Long Chuxia's intention of leaving her alone. She thought of the worst plan, which was to expose Xue Xuan's evil deeds and she would be implicated. So, when Xiaoxun put the stew in front of her,
There was a thud in her heart, what was coming finally came.
She looked up at Long Chuxia, who was drinking tea with her head down. She couldn't see her expression clearly. She knelt on the ground with a bang and begged: "I know that my crime is unpardonable. Please forgive me after you kill me."
Xue Xuan died, and the Chen family has divorced her, and Xue Xuan has no relationship with the Chen family anymore. Xue Xuan's murder of Huang Rui was her own idea. I beg the Queen Mother to be kind and not to involve Chen Jiachen, concubine.
After drinking this soup, I just hope that the death of my concubine can calm this matter."
Long Chuxia was stunned for a moment, then realized that Concubine Qin probably thought the soup was poison. She remained calm and asked calmly: "I only want one person to die. If you die in her place, I can spare her life."
!" Long Chuxia really wanted to see if this silly woman in front of her would sacrifice her life for her crazy sister, or if she would show her sisterly love here.
Concubine Qin kowtowed several times, and when she raised her head, tears were streaming down her face. She said with a sobbing voice: "Ever since I found out that she was the one who poisoned me, I already feel that I can't live this life anymore.
What's the use of life? Even my own sister wishes she could die. Living like this is too painful. I am willing to die in exchange for her awakening. I beg your empress to agree not to anger the Chen family, my brother, and my concubine.
Under the Nine Springs, I will also be grateful for the kindness of the Queen Mother."
"I promise you!" Long Chuxia said slowly
Concubine Qin's face was calm, and she knelt down in a formal manner and said: "My concubine, Mrs. Xue, bid farewell to the Empress Dowager!" She straightened her bun, her face was calm and calm, and there were no sparks in her eyes.
, as she said herself, she has given up
She stood up, brushed the dust off her knees, straightened her clothes, then picked up the bowl of soup, raised her head and drank it without hesitation.
Her hands were trembling slightly. When she put down the bowl, she also knelt down, just waiting for the moment when the poison would take effect.
Long Chuxia had an indescribable feeling in her heart. She couldn't even say she was angry. She just felt heartbroken. She had also experienced this kind of sisterly love deeply. She was a close relative of flesh and blood. Even if the other party forced her to think, she would not be willing to resist? Even if the other party was killed.
, I believe that she is the one who hurts. Concubine Qin would rather die by herself than to kill her cruel sister. Perhaps she knew in her heart that even if she died, Long Chuxia might not let Xue Xuan go, but at that time, she could no longer see it.
Now that we've arrived, what's the point?
"Get up and sit down!" Long Chuxia's face was a little unhappy. She said she wasn't angry, but she was still a little angry in her heart. She was angry that she didn't pity him so much and that she would give up her life for the person who poisoned her.
Concubine Qin did not feel the pain she imagined, and was slightly surprised. She raised her head and looked at Long Chuxia. Long Chuxia said angrily: "That's just a bowl of ordinary fish maw soup. It's good for the body. Who said I want you to die? Sit up."
say!"
Concubine Qin was shocked, and it took her a long time to hold back a sentence: "It's not poisonous?" Her face suddenly turned red. It was all because she was so smart that she thought the Queen Mother was going to give her poisonous soup.
Xiaoxun stepped forward and pulled her up. While pulling her, she said: "The Empress Dowager said that your empress has been in poor health recently and she has lost weight. She also asked the people in your palace who said that you don't want to eat or drink, and you can't sleep well. So
I ordered you to prepare some nourishing soup for your Majesty. I will not poison you. Your Majesty is too worried!"
Concubine Qin's face turned red, and she said in a voice like a mosquito: "I'm sorry, Aunt Xiaoxun, I was confused for a moment!"
Long Chuxiabo scolded: "You have been confused for a day or two. Is it worth sacrificing your life for your sister? You don't care about other people, you also have to care about your parents at home and your brother who is fighting for the country on the border.
How precious life is, you don’t need me to teach you. Do you want their white-haired people to give you black-haired people?"
Concubine Qin lowered her head and only agreed blindly, not daring to speak anymore.
Long Chuxia cursed for a few times before getting to the point, "When things have developed to this point, even if I kill Xue Xuan, your child will not come back. I don't want to add more killings to the crime, so I won't hold the blame against your sister for the time being.
It's just that I saw that she was good at making tea that day. Anyway, she is now suspended at home. Staying at home will only hurt the hearts of the two old people. Why don't you go and ask her if she wants to join the palace and accompany me.
If she doesn’t want to be with you, I won’t force you. If she wants to be with you, just bring her in!”
Concubine Qin's face turned slightly pale. Of course you know that losing her won't be so easy. Even if the Queen Mother doesn't kill her, she still hates her so much. Why do you want to keep her by your side?
Looking at Concubine Qin's thoughtful expression, Long Chuxia said calmly: "Of course, if you think this is not good, I can order a thorough investigation into your abortion!" She picked up the teacup and drank tea slowly, weighing the pros and cons.
She should know how to do it
Concubine Qin's expression changed again. In fact, she knew that it was impossible for the Queen Mother not to deal with Xue Xuan at all, but she couldn't figure out what she wanted. If she said that she wanted to put Xue Xuan in prison or even behead her, she didn't think so.
Xue Xuan was wronged by the law, and she deserved what she deserved. However, the Queen Mother said she would not pursue the case, and at the same time asked her to send Xue Xuan to the palace, both softly and hard. What was the purpose of this?
Concubine Qin gritted her teeth for the last time and said: "I know what to do!" What could be worse than death? The Queen Mother wanted to kill her, and there was no need to be pretentious about just one sentence, so it was better to let her into the palace than to
Good to be executed
"Well, go!" Long Chuxia smiled slightly, and the lines on her face softened a lot. Concubine Qin looked at her absentmindedly. When she was majestic, people didn't dare to look up at her. When she smiled, people felt amiable. This emperor
The Queen Mother is really hard to figure out
Concubine Qin stood up to say goodbye. In front of the door, although the sunshine was sunny, it made people feel like the gloom before a summer rainstorm.
Xiaoxun waited for Concubine Qin to go far away before asking: "Madam, what are you going to do?"
"Let Xue Xuan enter the palace first. If she is really not the vixen Ge Zhuer, I can spare her life!" Long Chuxia's sharp eyes fell coldly on the sunlight coming in in front of her door.
His face gradually became colder, "The vengeance of the wolf clan's annihilation must be avenged!"
Xiaoxun nodded slightly, "Then Ge Zhuer has been lurking for so long, it's time to come out!"
What Long Chuxia was thinking about was another matter. Ge Zhuer had been absorbed by the newly born Qining, and her abilities had been greatly reduced. She knew that she could not survive in this world, so the master behind her
Her soul was shattered and one of the strands was extracted for reincarnation. Logically speaking, after the soul was shattered, the person behind her could gather the soul again and put it back into Ge Zhuer's body when the time was right. Long Chuxia thought that since the enemy is hidden and we are clear, then
You might as well keep this suspicious vixen by your side so that you can teach yourself what the other person thinks is the right time.
