I, the ninth grade county magistrate, scare the empress to tears at the beginning!

Deep down in his heart, the late emperor was not ruthless. On the contrary, he felt very sorry for Jiang Qingli. This guilt later turned into love for Jiang Qingli's mother, Concubine Xiao. During that time, the late emperor would spend the night in Concubine Xiao's palace almost every night.

"Empress Huang, I don't care about what happened back then." Regarding this, Jiang Qingli seemed very open-minded, "If it weren't for the marriage, I would not have met my husband. This is a gift from God to me."

Ji Xinyue shook her head and said: "You must still be full of hatred for us. Back then, after all, it was the late emperor and I who forcibly separated you mother and daughter. I remember the day you were sent out of the palace, you cried so much Damn it, that look of hatred will never be forgotten in my life.”

Why was Jiang Qingli unwilling to reveal her whereabouts to the royal family after being rescued by Lu Yuan? She even did not notify anyone in the royal family about her wedding, so that she remained anonymous in Cangyun County for so long and refused to show up. This is Among them may be her resentment towards the Zhou royal family. Therefore, Ji Xinyue always wanted to find a chance to explain to her, but Jiang Qingli had been in retreat, so she had to put it off again and again.

"Yes, I have hated you and the late emperor, and everyone in the royal family, because you abandoned me and asked me to marry to the Yue Kingdom and bear children for the enemies of Zhou Dynasty. But after so many years, I have long since I'm relieved." Jiang Qingli said words like "relieved", but everyone could hear the anger in her tone, "Mother Huang, you think too much. I haven't contacted you for so many years, but I only thought about my husband. I don’t want to expose myself too early. As you know, my husband has been hiding in Cangyun County. If Jiang Linglong hadn’t fled to Cangyun County, he would have kept a low profile for a few years.”

Ji Xinyue sighed and said: "Alas, the late emperor is no longer alive. If you still have hatred in your heart, you can vent it on me. Even if you kill me with a knife, I won't say anything more."

Many years later, Ji Xinyue and the late emperor reflected on this matter countless times. In fact, there was another solution at that time, which was to find a substitute for Jiang Qingli and send him there instead of directly sending Jiang Qingli there to get married. Or, if you act a little tougher against Yue's aggressive attitude and firmly disagree with the peace proposal, even if a large-scale national war breaks out, Jiang Qingli can be saved.

All in all, sending Jiang Qingli to get married is indeed a helpless move. It can avoid direct war with the Yue Kingdom and cause the people's lives to be devastated. However, this approach of sacrificing Jiang Qingli's personal happiness and saving the country will eventually plant a seed in Jiang Qingli's heart. Seeds of hatred.

This kind of hatred may not cause any harm at first, but as time goes by, one day it will explode and lead to a tragedy. After Ji Xinyue learned that Jiang Qingli had married Lu Yuan, her worries deepened a lot.

What she was most worried about was that Jiang Qingli would use Lu Yuan's power or name to carry out a revenge against the royal family. This would not only damage Lu Yuan's prestige, but also pose a great threat to Jiang Linglong's life.

So today, she wanted to take advantage of Lu Yuan's disappearance and Jiang Linglong's absence to explode the resentment accumulated in Jiang Qingli's heart in advance. If Jiang Qingli decided to attack her today, she would have no complaints.

"Empress Huang, do you really think I don't dare to kill you?" Jiang Qingli, who was upset, pulled out the jade sword from her waist and put it on Ji Xinyue's neck. Her eyes were red, and her emotions began to become a little emotional, "You and the late emperor forcibly separated our family back then. I can forgive you for the sake of my husband, but I personally will never forgive you for what you did. ”

Under Ji Xinyue's verbal attack, Jiang Qingli expressed her deepest thoughts. These words had been buried and suppressed in her heart for a long time, and she had never told anyone, not even Lu Yuan. It was also because of this that Tantai Xi and Murong Jiu, two stunning women, showed surprise in their eyes. After living with Jiang Qingli for so many years, they never knew that Jiang Qingli had such deep hatred hidden in her heart. However, they completely understood Jiang Qingli's feelings. If they were in Jiang Qingli's perspective, they would be separated from their mother at a young age and sent to live alone in a hostile country. How painful and desperate they would feel in their hearts. Even though they did this for the people of Zhou Dynasty, their hearts would still be full of resentment. Therefore, the two of them didn't know how to dissuade them, but they allowed Jiang Qingli to kill Ji Xinyue.

"Qingli, you have to calm down. Jiang Linglong is about to ascend the throne. If you kill her mother, you will be the enemy of the entire Zhou Dynasty. Jiang Linglong will not let you go. The royal sisters are killing each other. This It’s sad to think about it.”

"Yes, Qingli. Your husband is missing, and Jiang Qingli is about to ascend the throne. In this special period, you must not be impulsive. If she dies here, Cangyun County will immediately become a public enemy of the world. After all, she is still the queen of the Great Zhou Dynasty. After Jiang Linglong officially ascends the throne, she will be the empress dowager, which is more noble than the royal title of your three princesses. "

Tantai Xi and Murong Jiu spoke separately. After all, Ji Xinyue is the master of the harem, and she is also Jiang Linglong's mother. If Jiang Qingli kills her, the public will be furious, and countless princes and ministers will put tremendous pressure on Jiang Linglong. At that time, even if Jiang Linglong was unwilling to hold Jiang Qingli accountable for the sake of Lu Yuan's face, she would still be forced to make cruel decisions under the pressure of the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty. These things are obvious.

"Qingli, do it. I have written a suicide note a long time ago, and I am just waiting for this day to come." Ji Xinyue said, and really closed her eyes. She did not intend to make any resistance, "As long as I can resolve you The hatred in my heart, I am willing to bear everything.”

"Empress Huang, that's enough! You acted like this on purpose, but you actually wanted to embarrass me. I will seek revenge from you, but not now." Jiang Qingli put away her long sword, bit her lip, and asked again: "I remember You and your mother were imprisoned in the harem together by Su Quan. Now that you are back, my mother should also be back, right? "Why didn't I see her?"

Ji Xinyue, Murong Jiu and Tantai Xi all remained silent. No one wanted to tell Jiang Qingli the bad news immediately.

"What happened to my mother? Tell me quickly." Jiang Qingli noticed the sadness in the expressions of the three people, and immediately had a premonition that something was wrong, "My mother...is she..." Her voice became trembling. , the body also trembled.

Ji Xinyue opened her eyes and said, "In order to protect me, Concubine Xiao quarreled with Su Quan and was forced by Su Quan to hang herself from the beam. Her body is now in the ice cellar."

boom!
Hearing this, Jiang Qingli's clothes swelled, and the majestic spiritual energy was released from her body, sending all her long hair flying. (End of chapter)
