Chapter 509: Revenge completed?
Seeing Emperor Chongzhao waking up, Wang Xifeng hurriedly ordered the warm bird's nest porridge to be served and persuaded the emperor to eat it.
Then he let him go back to the Purple Palace to wait for news from the retired emperor.
Before leaving, he sent her to the entrance of Yinyu Hall and whispered to comfort her: "No news is good news.
"Who knows, when you go back to sleep and wake up, the emperor may have arrived safely at the gate of Daming Palace!"
Emperor Chongzhao smiled, patted her shoulder, and said, "Thank you for your good words."
He walked away slowly with Changying and others.
Wang Xifeng watched the group of people disappear from her sight, then she tilted her head and called out in a low voice, "Chunsheng."
Chunsheng took a step forward: "Master."
"What's going on outside?" Wang Xifeng's eyes were still looking at the empty palace road.
"Mei escaped before the city gates closed. You asked the teacher who delivered the message to start packing her luggage and leave when the city gates open tomorrow."
Chunsheng answered softly.
However, he didn’t understand what the imperial concubine meant by the words that she had him send out.
How could a strange old nun not only help Mei to cover up her lies, but also give up her purpose of coming to Beijing and leave immediately?
Wang Xifeng sensed his hesitation, glanced at him, turned back to her room, and as she passed him, she said something so light that it was blown away in the night wind almost as soon as it came out of her mouth -
"The more you think, the faster you die..."
A cold war breaks out in spring.
He hurriedly lowered his head, hunched his waist, put his hands into his sleeves, and followed his master closely. As he walked back, he continued to report softly:
"…The master, his wife, and the second young lady were all at home, and six groups of people knocked on the door, but were all turned away by the housekeeper.
"The Xue family received Wang Ziteng's suicide note from the inner temple the day before yesterday. Auntie cried all night and discussed everything with Miss Xue. Yesterday, she started preparing a dowry list for Miss Xue II...
"Also, in Rongguo Mansion, Jia Wangshi has not been waiting for a reply from His Majesty. This morning, she was at the bedside of Old Lady Shi, asking Jia Min to write a letter to Miss Lin..."
Wang Xifeng had been listening calmly until the last sentence, when her face darkened and she looked out the window coldly:
"My aunt, I really don't know why so many people could let her survive..."
Chunsheng lowered his head in silence.
After all, she was an important figure in the marriage between Jia and Wang, and she gave birth to two sons and a daughter, all of whom were outstanding. How could anyone want her to die?
Wang Xifeng looked at him: "Anything else?"
"The people that Prince Shen left in the capital have been captured by the Inner Temple. He did take the warrant from Prince Bei and led his men to the other palace.
"It's just that we don't have enough manpower, so we don't know what's happening outside the city..."
Chunsheng stopped when he heard footsteps outside.
Wang Xifeng glanced at the door curtain and realized that it was Aunt Meng who came over, but she didn't say anything and said, "Continue."
“King Xiaoyao said that the assassin had injured his root, but that’s not true.
"The Zhen family had already given him a slow-acting poison early on, and he knew about it a long time ago. This time, they just used the assassin to expose the matter."
Chunsheng continued softly.
Wang Xifeng raised her eyebrows: "Slow poison?! When did he know about it?"
“It should have been shortly before King Xiaonan died.
“That’s what King Xiaoyao said himself when the only loyal maid left in the palace came forward to serve after the doctors left.
"The original words were: Last time in the South Palace, the King of the North tested me once. I was still angry at that time and almost let the cat out of the bag.
"This time we have a clear path ahead. I don't have to hide anything anymore. I feel more at ease."
Chunsheng said.
Wang Xifeng frowned and shook her head gently: "The Northern King and his men are really crazy..."
Chunsheng remained silent.
"That's all?" Wang Xifeng glanced at him and said, "You've worked hard. Go ahead."
Chunsheng respectfully took his leave.
Aunt Meng then lifted the curtain and came in. After watching Chunsheng walk away, she warned Wang Xifeng in a low voice:
"I heard it's okay, but if you try to spy on me, you'll be violating a taboo."
Wang Xifeng curled her lips and said, "I am not the queen. I cannot be deaf and blind and still live so comfortably."
Since she has already taken the position of imperial concubine, it is the minimum for her to keep an eye on all directions and listen carefully.
Everyone in Yinyu Palace must adapt to this.
Aunt Meng also understood, she sighed softly and nodded: "That's fine."
After a pause, he smiled gently, took two steps back, bowed deeply to Wang Xifeng, knelt on both knees, and kowtowed to the ground.
Wang Xifeng was stunned and quickly reached out to help: "Aunt, what are you doing? Get up quickly!"
"Before entering the palace, Your Majesty, you made an agreement with me. I will help you identify people in the palace, and you will help me avenge the late queen..."
At this point, Aunt Meng choked up.
Wang Xifeng raised her eyebrows slightly, and then she really leaned forward to hold Aunt Meng's arm, and said softly:
"Are you blaming the Mo family for the revenge of the late Empress Xiaoren?"
Aunt Meng was just following her hand and getting up, wiping her tears. When she heard this, she was stunned: "Isn't it?"
"The late queen died of grief. The late crown prince was arrogant and plotted rebellion. The cause may be the bad behavior of his brothers, but the root cause is that the emperor did not know how to teach his son.
"What's the big deal about the harem infighting? The worst thing is that the emperor doesn't even treat his wife and children as human beings!"
Wang Xifeng sighed softly, pulled her to sit down beside the bed, and said softly, "You will know when you look at our emperor.
"There are few children, so a son and a daughter are as precious as a treasure. There are many women in the harem, so the concubines are like grass and mustard.
"In the end, it's just a matter of 'usefulness or not'.
"For the Emperor at that time, the Crown Prince had to be deposed and killed first, and all the previous matters had to be settled. Then the late Queen would have no reason to live on.
"What you're talking about is the love between husband and wife, that's bullshit!"
At this point, Wang Xifeng sneered, her eyes turned, and she looked at Aunt Meng, "So, Aunt, are you going to take revenge on this vengeance in your heart?"
Aunt Meng went out in a daze.
It was already the end of the You hour, and seeing that no one was coming, An'er and Chunnuan quietly came in from outside, helped Wang Xifeng to take off her hair and wash her face, and then lay down to sleep.
The back hall of Yinyu Palace gradually became silent.
The outer room, the main hall, and the side halls also gradually became quiet.
After the second update.
Wang Xifeng opened her eyes in the dim light of a flickering lamp.
Wu Jin jumped nimbly to her bed and meowed softly.
"As long as the Lord enters the palace alive, I can save his life. You don't need to tell me that."
Wang Xifeng said slowly, "But I also have a condition. I want Zhou's life."
Wu Jin was stunned for a moment and unconsciously groaned in his throat.
"I don't care if she is in your book of life and death or not. I just know that she wants to harm my daughter, so I won't let her live!"
Wang Xifeng sat up coldly, turned her head and looked at Wu Jin, "If you don't do it, I will do it myself."
Wu Jin's ears instantly flattened in fear.
Meow, meow!
Do it, do it, can't I do it?
Jin Ercai was on the shelf, opening his mouth and flapping his wings, laughing silently: Coward!
