Queen's Purpose

Chapter 382 Those who can get the most benefit from this matter are nothing more than those few
Quan Qingjiu frowned, "Why are you here?"

Xia Fanyin's expression had completely changed, and she hurriedly walked towards him, "Which empress?"

"Xia Xiaoqi."

"Tell me!" She held his hand anxiously, "Is it the Empress Defei? She was beaten?"

"........."

Fuchen was gouged out by Quan Qingjiu, and he lowered his head guiltily, "Princess, this subordinate is talking nonsense."

How could Xia Fanyin believe his words now, she held onto Quan Qingjiu's hand tightly, "Tell me."

"There are some things that you don't need to know." The man frowned, "Everyone has their own fate, if you can't change it, it's better to pretend you don't know."

"If I didn't hear it, I can pretend I didn't know." She looked at him almost beggingly, "But now that I've heard it all, it might have something to do with me. How can I hide my ears?"

Quan Qingjiu looked at her for a long time, then winked at Fuchen, and Fuchen stepped back immediately with discernment.

The man sighed inaudibly, "It's Concubine De."

"……why?"

"Xiaoqi."

"Because of me?" She keenly sensed, "Because you testified for me that day?"

Quan Qing put his arms around her body, a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes, and lowered his voice, "Don't think about it, huh?"

She bit her lip suddenly, her eyes were slightly red, "Then I... can I go and see her now?"

"better not."

"The power is nine..."

The man simply hugged her into his arms, "I know you are worried about Concubine De, but the queen lost her beloved daughter, no matter what she does - as long as no one is killed, the emperor will not do anything to her. You are her main object of suspicion now , you go to see Concubine De, it will only make her hate Concubine De even more."

It is self-evident what the more annoying result will be.

Xia Fanyin opened his mouth, his voice was unsteady, "Father... why did he do this? How could he do this?"

The queen wants her life, Emperor Jing wants her to do things, they are all targeting her.

Concubine De was the most innocent in the whole matter, but she became a punching bag.

The man lowered his eyes, "In the eyes of the emperor, you and the queen are at least comparable. What is Defei?"

Quan Qingjiu looked at her clenched palms, and tried to comfort her with a tense voice, "Your father may not love you, at least he will not let the queen take you under the knife. If it is any other prince or princess who is suspected by the queen, maybe It's the same fate as Concubine De."

Is this consolation?

Xia Fanyin smiled wryly, "But Empress Defei..."

The man interrupted the comfort, "Don't worry too much, the queen won't do anything to her in a short time."

Xia Fanyin closed her eyes, "Who is Xia Qingxue's death?"

Quan Qingjiu, "The ones who can get the most benefit from this matter are those few. The real culprit should be found in the palace in a few days, but the real culprit... probably will only be an unremarkable person."

Xia Fanyin understood what he meant almost instantly—the real culprit found out in the end was probably just a scapegoat.

best interests...

Either they want her to die, or they want to use her.

The former, the queen prince.

The latter is... Emperor Jing?

Even though it was just a guess, she was still slightly shocked.

Quan Qingjiu is right, Emperor Jing may not have no love for her, but the king of a country has very little affection, and it is reasonable to use power and tactics, which is understandable intellectually, but emotionally, it is impossible to treat her as nothing. happened before.
