The night was already deep, except for the croaking of frogs, there was no sound. Shen Huan was sitting on the edge of the bed, draped in clothes, looking intently at the dancing candlelight. Cui Shanggong said worriedly: "Your Majesty, the Emperor is still discussing matters, I'm afraid I won’t be back for a while, my dear, why don’t you go to bed early?”
Shen Huan didn't seem to hear it, and her eyes didn't change.
Cui Shanggong sighed and was about to leave when he saw Shen Huan standing up and said coldly: "Teacher, I want to see Concubine Qing."
Cui Shanggong was stunned: "Empress?"
Shen Wen looked at her and said slowly: "She and her family depend on each other. As long as her family is around, she will not die; and if she dies, her family will lose their attachment! For me, She has to die first or last. Rather than letting her die from Chu Xichen’s wrath, it’s better to let her die in my hands and fulfill my wish for revenge!”
She said this and was determined to send Concubine Qing to Huangquan Road. Cui Shanggong had no choice but to have someone get a black cloak and support her himself. He did not hold a lantern or bring anyone else with him. The two of them slowly Slowly walked towards the "Sicunzhai" where Concubine Qing was restrained. When she reached the "Sicunzhai", she saw Xia Wenze waiting there.
"How is she?" Shen Huan asked
"It's very quiet," Xia Wenze said. Obviously, he had been ordered to supervise Concubine Qing here.
Entering "Sicunzhai", I saw Concubine Qing huddled in the corner. She didn't panic when she saw someone coming. She just raised her head and glanced at Shen Huan and said coldly: "You're here."
Shen Huan put down the hat on his cloak and asked with a smile: "Did you know I was coming?"
Concubine Qing snorted coldly, stood up and said, "The poison in the sour plum juice was not caused by me!"
Shen Wen's smile became more charming and cold: "I know."
Only then did Concubine Qing show her anger and said harshly: "Then you should let me go!"
Shen Huan smiled and said: "You are so stupid! I have worked so hard to set up such a trap, how could I just let you go?"
Concubine Qing's face suddenly became as scary as a ghost, and she shouted sternly: "It's you!"
"It's me," Shen Huan said leisurely, "I can not only get rid of you, but also test Su'e's loyalty. Who else but me can think of such a way to kill two birds with one stone?"
Concubine Qing was stunned for a few seconds, then suddenly laughed sharply: "You are dreaming! The emperor will not kill me! If he wanted to kill me, he would have killed me long ago. Our family is the hero of the opposite! Not to mention my father and brother..."
"Are you mentioning your father and brother now? They embezzled money from the river irrigation project, which made the drought in the south of the Yangtze River more serious. Not only that, they also misappropriated people's fields. At this time, I'm afraid Sanzai and the emperor are discussing how to punish them! The emperor hates them the most. What is it? Corruption! But your father and brother are not afraid of death! The emperor is such a face-saving person and hopes that the people will live well. Therefore, whoever has trouble with the people and undermines his royal majesty will have trouble with him. !”
Concubine Qing became furious and shouted: "It's impossible, you're talking nonsense!"
Shen Huan smiled gently and said: "I'm not talking nonsense. I got the superstition about their interactions with the officials half a month ago, but I didn't mention it at that time in order to make this loophole bigger and bigger. Even Liu Zhao couldn't protect them, and even the people and the emperor hated them!"
She slowly took a deep breath and continued: "Although my father was a powerful prime minister, what he did never harmed the interests of the people. Therefore, even if he died, it was only because the emperor wanted to kill him, not like your father and brother - —The people hate them! They will remain infamy in the hearts of the people until they die!"
In anger, Concubine Qing was about to rush towards Shen Huan and strangle her neck. Xia Wenze pushed her aside. Shen Huan easily dodged it, but Concubine Qing missed her and fell to the ground.
Shen Huan said contemptuously: "How dare a person who is dying dare to be so arrogant?"
Concubine Qing got up, her face looked dirty from touching the ashes on the ground. She touched it randomly a few times, but it became even uglier. She glared at Shen Huan in anger and said: "The emperor's decree has not been issued for a day, I You won’t die for a day!”
Shen Huan said coldly: "Do you think I will let you see the emperor's imperial edict? Don't forget that now you are no longer a second-grade concubine, but a Lu Xuanshi! No one dares to say that the Queen will execute a Xuanshi. Not a word! And you - I have already thought about it for you, the cause of death is - suicide out of fear of crime!" As she said this, she took out a small blue bottle of blue and white porcelain from her arms
Seeing this, Concubine Qing's face became even paler. Shen Huan smiled and said, "Do you still remember this? This is the one who killed my child, and this is the one who forced my sister to death. Now, it's your turn!" After saying that, she said to Cui Shanggong: "Go and invite Li Ronghua. She must be very happy to see Lu Xuan return to the west."
Cui Shanggong glanced at Xia Wenze and withdrew.
Concubine Qing sneered: "That bitch Liji, who is she? When she was in the palace, she was just a singer. If it weren't for my support, she would be where she is today!"
Shen Huan said lightly: "You did support her, but you almost killed her. People in the world tend to choose the latter if they love you or not." She paused and then said: "However, there are too many people who hate you. I can't call them all to see you off. Fortunately, you have killed many people. When you get down there, you can have a good time reminiscing with them."
"I have never killed anyone! It was you who killed my cousin!"
"Really?" Shen Huan said coldly, "Didn't you kill Sister Xianya? Didn't you send someone to silence Xueling? It was you who made Luo Xia pretend to be pregnant, so you killed her! You framed Hua Zhi. Yes? Actually, you wanted to blame Luo Xia’s so-called dragon fetus on me at first, didn’t you?”
Concubine Qing snorted coldly and ignored it.
Shen Huan said slowly: "That day after greeting each other in the Chen Palace, Luo Xia suddenly said that she had seen red. At that time, you wanted to frame me. Unfortunately, I smelled the smell of musk, so I quickly asked Xiang Ming to take a look, and then asked Xiang Ming to take a look. She looked for another imperial physician, but in order to prevent other imperial physicians from diagnosing Luo Xia's pulse, you had to say it was okay... If the fragrant tea hadn't gone quickly, the non-existent child would have slipped away because of the musk in the palace. Yeah?"
Concubine Qing did not deny it, but she also did not say anything.
Shen Wen continued: "You have no choice but to think of another way. But by chance, Hua Zhi sent some pieces of Su embroidery! According to Luo Xia's temper, she would not be interested in these things, but in just a few days, she Wearing tailor-made clothes, and I see her wearing them every day when greetings! I am still very surprised, when did Luo Xia like painting so much? If she doesn't like people, even if they are real money , she may not be willing to take it! Not to mention wearing it every day! You said that musk was put on your clothes and you blamed Hua. If you hadn't been so impatient and wanted to get rid of the imperial doctor who helped you cover up your lies, I wouldn't have noticed it. No! You are so impatient!"
Concubine Qing's expression changed and she snorted coldly: "Even if I'm not impatient, wouldn't you be suspicious? If you hadn't gone too far and insisted on punishing Xia'er, how could I have made such a move!"
"Everything is just your own fault and you are not going to survive! You can't blame others."
Concubine Qing smiled and said: "Yes, it is indeed our own fault, but Concubine Rong, your elegant sister, is not me... Haha, why should I tell you? I am just waiting for you to die in that person's hands one day. Come on, so that I can feel extremely happy!"
Shen Huan said angrily: "What did you say?"
Concubine Qing just smiled, raised her eyebrows, and said, "Shen Huan, do you know who you remind me of when you look like this? Yes, it's your sister Shen Yuan! You guys are really kind!"
Shen Huan suppressed her anger and said: "Don't be anxious, you will see her soon. You gave her the poison, and now her sister I will take you to hell. It is also a kind of fate, right?"
Concubine Qing said indifferently: "The person who wants to kill her is the emperor, and I am just following orders! But..." Resentment flashed in her eyes, "Even if the emperor doesn't kill her, I won't let her go. If it weren't for her ...If it weren't for her...why would I never be able to be a mother..." As she spoke, she began to sob. Then she raised her head and pointed at Shen Huan and said sternly: "Do you think losing a child is painful? That's better than losing a child. Is it better to never have children in your life? After all, you have had children, but what about me? I never want to have children in my life! Everything is because of your sister! Shen Yuan, wearing the appearance of a virtuous princess, did such a sinful thing A cruel thing!"
Shen Huan moved slightly and said in a deep voice: "You are talking nonsense!"
"Nonsense? Haha..." Concubine Qing laughed, "You know best whether I have talked nonsense. You also lived in the palace for a while. Your brother-in-law has your sister as a concubine. I and I Concubine Pei had two concubines and more than a dozen concubines. However, except for Concubine Pei who gave birth to a son under difficult circumstances, there were only two daughters... Concubine Pei's son was born prematurely! She was three months pregnant. It took him only a month to say it, but he gave birth to the child in seven months! If the emperor hadn't relied on General Pei at that time, do you think Ping'er would have survived safely? However, that bitch Shen Yuan didn't count against it. I think the emperor is also guarding against her!"
Shen Huan's face was calm, but her fingers were trembling. Now when she thinks back to the days when her sister was alive, she can't help but feel sad. When she was in the palace, she had never seen Xichen's indifference towards her sister. Sometimes she wouldn't step into her sister's house for a whole month. The dormitory... Since he doesn't want to have children with his sister, why would he want to have children with himself? Is it because the Shen family no longer exists, and the so-called rear party no longer exists?
Concubine Qing looked at Shen Yu quietly, her eyes shining like a cat in the dark night. She asked: "Do you know why the emperor had to execute Shen Yuan? She was already the queen at that time, and she could have done it after she was deposed. The emperor even spared your second brother, but why didn't he spare her life?"
Shen Huan asked: "Why?"
Concubine Qing laughed miserably: "So you don't know, there are things in this world that you don't know about! I won't tell you, not even if I die!"
Shen Huan no longer wanted to deal with her, and said harshly: "Then you will die!" He waved the porcelain bottle to Xia Wenze and said: "Give her a drink!"
Concubine Qing sneered and backed away, and suddenly said: "I will not die in your hands!" Suddenly, with a "Peng" sound, she hit the wall, blood gushed out, and she fell on her back. There is a sneer on the lips
"Ah!" A scream came from the door. It turned out that Cui Shanggong came with Li Ronghua. Li Ronghua happened to see the death of Concubine Qing and screamed in fright.
Shen Huan stood quietly, not afraid at all. Li Ronghua suppressed her nausea and fear and moved to Shen Huan's side, and asked in panic: "Is this... is he dead?"
Shen Huan said coldly: "If you die, what else can you do?"
(ps: What a god! I finally wrote her to death. If not, I will die!
Although the old people have gone, new people have come, so a new concubine will appear in the next chapter!)
