Xia Qing frowned and said, "Last night, I heard the concubine say something. Your concubine and concubine Yi actually..."
Before she could ask further, Xianyue said directly: "Yes, nothing happened to me and Concubine Yi. The things you saw were all done for your concubines to see, so as not to expose any flaws, so
I never told you."
Mrs. Hu took over and said: "But your concubine did not completely believe Sister Yi. If Sister Yi had not reacted quickly yesterday, Concubine Hui would have been charged with murdering the emperor's heir."
Mentioning this matter, Xia Qing stroked her chest with lingering fear and said, "I was really stupid at the time. I didn't expect that Wei Jingxuan would be so crazy and would not hesitate to beat the dragon fetus to harm me."
Mrs. Hu shook her head and said: "She is not crazy. On the contrary, she knows very well, so she wants to beat the dragon fetus."
Under Xia Qing's puzzled eyes, she explained the matter of having multiple children, and then said: "Wei Jingxuan knew in her heart that she would not be able to give birth to those children. Since she would have a miscarriage sooner or later, why not get the maximum benefit from this? This is also her
A common practice."
Xia Qing sneered and said: "It's really retribution. She strangled her biological daughter to death and wanted to give birth to a brother. Now she got pregnant, but she couldn't." After saying this, she frowned and said: "Actually,
Concubine Yi could have spoken out about this matter yesterday, as long as the emperor knew that she was pregnant with multiple children, then it would make sense that she wanted to beat her own belly and harm my concubine."
"But if Wei Jingxuan denies it, the emperor may not convict her of this crime. After all, there is no basis for it. According to my guess, she will at most be convicted of being grounded without any injuries." Xianyue caressed the phoenix on her clothes.
Taiwen said quietly: "But in this case, Concubine Yi
Her identity will be exposed, and it will be difficult to get close to Wei Jingxuan in the future. Concubine Yi probably had this in mind, so she did not make any move and continued to deal with Wei Jingxuan; Wei Jingxuan's baby was already four months old and could not last long. She must
I will look for another opportunity to do it as soon as possible.”
Xia Qing said hesitantly: "I'm afraid Wei Jingxuan won't believe it. She just kept her secret to what happened yesterday."
"If you are unable to continue to control the situation, Concubine Yi will come and talk to me, so you don't have to worry too much." At this point, Xianyue looked at Xia Qing and smiled slightly: "If Concubine Hui wants to help Concubine Yi, she might as well show up."
Give Wei Jingxuan a loophole so that this game can be ended as soon as possible."
"Flaws?" Xia Qing was startled, then shook her head and smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid she won't take the bait no matter how many flaws are revealed, after all yesterday..."
Xianyue interrupted her and said: "As long as Wei Jingxuan hates you and is eager to deal with the child in her belly, she will definitely take the bait. Of course, it cannot be too obvious. I will try to contact Concubine Yi to see what she has.
Appropriate method."
Mentioning Mrs. Huang, Mrs. Hu said curiously: "There is one thing that I can't figure out. Since there was no safflower in the anti-fetal medicine at that time, why did the empress pretend to have abdominal pain? Could it be that Sister Yi sent someone to inform the empress? But
Liu Qi and Xiao Mengzi are following her, aren't they afraid of being discovered?"
Xianyue smiled slightly and said, "Do you still remember the time when Imperial Concubine Yi came to plead guilty and I held her hand? At that time, she quietly placed a piece of paper in my palm, and this was written on it."
Mrs. Hu suddenly said: "I see. In this way, Brother San was telling the truth. Sister Yi..."
Before she could finish speaking, Xianyue said: "The third elder brother, like Liu Qi, is Wei Jingxuan's spy. I guess that Concubine Yi used some method to make the third elder brother think she was drugged. In fact,
But there is none."
Xia Qing said angrily: "The third elder brother is also a confused person. For the sake of a so-called mother-in-law, he completely forgot how well the mother-in-law treated him in the past. I don't know where all the books he read have gone. Are they in the dog's belly?
?”
Xianyue said calmly: "Concubine Hui is needlessly angry. One day, he will know how wrong he was. I just hope that when he knows, it is not too late and there is a chance to turn back."
Seeing that Xianyue still cared about Yongzhang at this time, Xia Qing shook her head and said: "He is not worthy of being treated like this!"
Xianyue lowered her head and stroked her belly, and chuckled: "I don't know if it's because I'm pregnant with a child, but I'm always very soft-hearted, especially towards Yongzhang and the others."
Mrs. Hu smiled and said: "It doesn't matter who you are soft-hearted to, as long as you don't be soft-hearted to Wei Jingxuan and Yehenala."
Xianyue raised her delicate eyebrows and said with a hint of coldness: "I don't think there will be such a day."
The next few days were so calm and quiet...it even made people forget that tranquility is often the harbinger before the storm comes.
After Liu Qi was controlled by the Huang family, it became much easier for Xianyue to exchange information with her, and they quickly formulated a plan to use Xia Qing as bait.
Changyin Pavilion was the place for watching plays in the palace. As the weather got warmer, the palace masters gradually began to like to go there. Xia Qing was one of them, and she went there almost every day.
On February 26, Wei Jingxuan came to Chonghua Palace to talk to Mr. Huang as usual. However, this time, there was always a lingering gloom between her eyebrows.
Mrs. Huang said earnestly: "What happened to your concubine today? Why do you look so depressed? What's on your mind?"
Wei Jingxuan sighed and said: "Last night, I had severe abdominal pain. It took a long time to finally stop the pain. Dr. Zhuang examined me and said that the fetus in my belly was growing too fast, which was causing harm to my body.
The burden is getting heavier and heavier, and I have to have an abortion as soon as possible. If it is too late, I am afraid it will cause harm to the body."
Huang raised her eyebrows and said, "Did Dr. Zhuang say how long it will take?"
Wei Jingxuan nodded sadly and said: "As I said, I only have three days left for you. If you don't count today, then there are only two days left."
Huang said in surprise: "So fast? What are you going to do, my concubine?"
Wei Jingxuan shook her head sadly, "I don't know. It would be great if everything goes well that day. Now that Concubine Hui and the others are already on guard against me, two days is simply not enough time to find an opportunity; if it really doesn't work, they can only
Give up this opportunity."
"It would be a pity. Don't worry. You can ask me to think carefully and there should be a way." Huang closed her eyes and thought carefully, tapping her fingers lightly on the armrest, again and again, without stopping for a long time.
Okay, obviously she didn't think of any good ideas.
At this time, Liu Qi whispered in her ear: "Master, I just thought of a way, but I don't know if it will work."
Mrs. Huang suddenly opened her eyes, stared at him and said, "What's the solution? Tell me quickly."
"My servant inquired that Concubine Hui has been going to Changyin Pavilion to listen to plays every day recently, and there is a place for all the young masters to take a rest and change clothes. As long as she can be lured there, the incident in Xinuan Pavilion of the Qing Palace can be repeated again.
"All of this is a strategy that Huang and Xianyue came up with. Originally, Huang could say it himself, but in order to avoid Wei Jingxuan's suspicion, Liu Qi decided to do it one by one.
