"I really wonder what secret was hidden in the golden key in Concubine Jiang's hand at that time?"

Yao Xianxiu's fingertips tapped secretly on the table, and the look on her face could not help but become solemn.

"For Concubine Jiang to be able to sit in her current position, she must have had too many secrets that are difficult to describe, but no one can easily master these secrets! If I knew one or two things, wouldn't it be easy to stand up and make the decision?

A lot?"

Thinking of this, she suddenly became energetic.

"Could it be that Xia Ruyan, who is as cunning as a snake, is appreciated by Concubine Jiang because she has mastered some of her secrets? How could she be able to sit firmly on the throne of the Crown Princess?"

"This is really a difficult problem! What should we do?"

She secretly thought about every weakness around Concubine Jiang that was most likely to be overcome.

".........Yes!"

Suddenly, her eyes lit up: "Chunxiang! Yes! Just Chunxiang!"

She stood up excitedly.

The next day, the night was dark and the Yifeng Hall was deserted.

Recently, after experiencing the troublesome things about wild cats, Concubine Jiang couldn't sleep all night long. She sat alone in front of the window in the middle of the night, wearing a cloak and quietly staring at the flickering lights in front of her.

The lamp fell into deep thought.

She couldn't help but think of those sad past events when she was still a little Jieyu...

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! It's not good! It's not good! Jiang Jieyu's condition is critical and there may be something unexpected. Please make a decision as soon as possible!"

It was a night of heavy rain, and several running attendants rushed into the palace door anxiously. They knelt down with a bang, cupped their hands and clasped their fists, and reported with anxious expressions.

"If that's the case... then just keep it small..."

A chess piece in front of Emperor Ji suddenly "kicked" and slipped, rolling and jumping directly on the ground and bouncing around several times.

"Yes! I will go and report back now!"

So, despite the torrential rain at night, several attendants got on their horses and disappeared into the pouring dark wind and rain.

"Urgent report! Urgent report!"

A shout outside the door, mixed with the chaotic sounds of the storm, faintly reached Jiang Jieyu's ears.

At that time, she was struggling to her death. Although only a little bit of her dying consciousness was left floating in the sky above the beams, with a face ashen as death, the midwife ran out of the door with a long sigh.

"Oops! It seems she can't do it! Generals, please go back and explain the situation to Your Majesty! How to decide..."

The midwife's face also turned bright and dark, red and white, and she asked timidly with a trembling voice: "General, what do you think we should do about this?"

"Urgent report! Urgent report!"

Suddenly a loud shout interrupted the conversation between the two.

"Tell me quickly! How did the Holy Spirit make the decision?"

A hurried shout penetrated the window paper. Jiang Jieyu's eyes opened and closed and she vaguely saw the figure printed on the paper window. The shadow danced in a trance under the shadow of the lamp like a shadow puppet.

"Reply to the general! The emperor's reply is that... please keep me safe!"

The atmosphere froze for a moment, and the air seemed to be frozen instantly.

"Why…………"

Suddenly the general slammed the sword in his hand to the ground and sighed heavily: "Okay! In that case, everyone else, please retreat quickly! Leave two imperial guards to take care of me, you

Hurry up and prepare for your concubine’s funeral!”

"yes!"

After everyone had dispersed, the general followed the two old ladies into the delivery room, where he was going to collect her body.

"General... Do you want to wait? Wait until the emperor comes to see the empress for the last time!"

"Hey...forget it! Everyone is gone. There are three thousand beauties in the harem. The emperor will be here long ago! It's already past midnight, so let's collect the body of the noble concubine first!"

The two old maids took out a pile of shrouds from the basket and spread them out in front of the table in an upright manner according to etiquette.

Against the scattered lights, the weak candlelight danced more and more. The figure of the old palace maid was illuminated by the weak candlelight into Jiang Guifei's eyes. She looked as weird and strange as two old hags seduced by hell.

uncertain.

"It is said that generals fight fiercely on the battlefield, and their masculinity is extraordinary. It is said that generals are like the Tiangang star in the sky and turn around to come down to earth. That's why the Holy Spirit specially approved the loyal and mighty General Jin to come and collect the body of Concubine Jiang Guifei who died in childbirth.

Got it!"

"That's right! If the Holy One is the monarch of the country, how can he be contaminated by the filthy aura of a woman who is having a difficult childbirth? I heard that the Holy One being close to such a filthy deceased woman may reduce the country's destiny and harm the people!"

"......Stop talking! Although Jiang Jieyu has gone, we are talking about it here. If General Jin hears it later, he will probably be punished!"

"……………………"

"Hahahahaha...Sister! I won't tell you anymore, you can do it on your own!"

Xia Ruyan laughed for a while, then turned around, shook her wide sleeves and walked out of the door.

"Huh! Let me let you smile first! So that you don't have a chance in the future."

Xia Ruyan spat harshly at her back as she walked out, her hands already trembling with anger almost unable to hold the tea cup.

"Ah...it's so uncomfortable! It's so uncomfortable! It turns out that it's so painful to endure someone."

King Lin walked in the door at this time and was really shocked when he saw that her face turned pale with anger.

"You... What's wrong with you? Why do you look so ugly?"

Xia Lingyue's wrists were shaking in anger, and her lips and teeth were trembling violently.

"I...I'm so angry!"

King Lin immediately panicked when he saw this.

"What the hell is going on? What are you talking about?"

"Well………………"

Before he could explain clearly the cause and effect of the matter, a pair of high-heeled shoes had already heavily stepped through the threshold of the Xiren Hall gate.

"Hehehehe... Come on and be safe!"

Yao Xianxiu's arrogant face was filled with flashes of red and white. Her clear eyes had already become turbid from confinement. At this time, when she saw King Lin holding the child and pulling Xia Ling

With Yue's hand, a crazy feeling jumped up and down in her chest like a hysterical beast.

"...Aren't you...Aren't you Xiu'er? Why are you so old? Are you Xiu'er? Why do you look like but not like...? Uh...

………”

When Xia Lingyue said this, she seemed to be pretending to be dumbfounded, but in fact she was already laughing in her heart.

Xia Lingyue suddenly smiled, but the people in the dark did not expect that you were not so easy to control. She would rather leave Yao Xianxiu behind and be placed under house arrest in a corner. She even refused to see anyone behind closed doors from then on. However, Yao Xianxiu's side

Even though I’ve asked to see you many times, I haven’t been able to impress your determination! Of course, the person in the dark may just want to delay it any longer.

After dragging her down and letting her suffer all the hardships in the imperial palace, she couldn't stand it anymore, and then waited until she was almost completely desperate before giving her some sweet fruit with conditions! In this way, Yao Xianxiu would definitely

I cherish this conditionally sweet fruit very much, and I am so grateful! Hehehehe..."

King Lin looked at Xia Lingyue in surprise: "How do you know? It feels like what you are saying is like you are the person in the dark. It sounds really lifelike!"

Xia Lingyue pursed her lips and smiled: "Haha... How do I know? Because I have seen a lot of this kind of house fighting since I was a child!"

"Didn't you look for your shoes everywhere that day? Didn't you say that your shoes were lost? Hahahaha...who returned the shoes to you later?"

After he mentioned it, she suddenly remembered that she had spent several days fetching water and washing clothes at the well before entering the palace.

Xia Lingyue went out without looking back, but when she walked to the door, opened the curtain and stepped out, she glanced back into the inner compartment of the palace.

"ah!!!!!………………"

When she saw the scene on the bedside, she suddenly covered her mouth in horror...
