Chapter 696 The truth of the year
The queen frowned tightly and asked, "What does the noble concubine mean?"

Concubine Qiu raised her eyebrows: "Is the empress so engrossed in chatting with her former friends that she hasn't had time to receive the news from your eyeliner all over the harem? Well, I will do a good deed and inform the empress. The emperor has found out that the last person Huier met in Meiyuan was Qingmei, and she has already rushed to Xuanhua Palace."

When the queen heard this, her brows furrowed even deeper, but they soon relaxed again, and she said indifferently, "Isn't that great? That woman should have gotten her retribution long ago."

"Whether Hui'er is dead or not, do you really care?"

The empress looked at her coldly: "Don't compare you with Ben Gong! Hui'er was raised by Ben Gong alone, and she is Ben Gong's daughter."

"Oh, your daughter?" Concubine Qiu snorted and laughed, "Queen, don't you feel a little guilty when you say this?"

"I don't need to explain to you."

"Of course, you are the empress, you don't need to explain to anyone except the emperor, and I don't mean to threaten you, just curious."

The queen narrowed her eyes, and said it was not a threat. When she mentioned the emperor at this time, she was clearly telling her that if the emperor knew about this matter, she would not be able to be so confident.

"It's not that you didn't tell the emperor back then, but the emperor didn't believe you, Concubine Qiu. In the eyes of the emperor, you are cruel and merciless. Jealousy has already made you lose yourself, but this palace is different. Although this palace is ruthless, it is not kind." Jealousy, Mei Er is more willing to get close to me after entering the palace, why do you think that is?"

"That's because you always live with a mask. Meier didn't see clearly what kind of hypocritical face was underneath the mask, so she didn't know who was the one who pulled her into the abyss until she died. If you hadn't tried everything possible to let Meier enter the palace in order to divert the emperor's attention from me, your good friend didn't know that when she came to ask you not to let Meier enter the palace, you didn't agree , and said grandly that you have no way to decide, but what is the truth?"

"you shut up!"

"Why should I shut up, empress, you are always daring to act but not to be, that's why the emperor doesn't like you, understand?"

"Concubine Qiu, don't forget that this is Fenglin Palace."

"How to pretend, can I not know? I have quarreled with the empress once or twice, so what if I quarrel with the emperor? Do you think the emperor will put me in the cold palace for you? You have worked hard for so many years and arranged so many shady things, have you ever succeeded?"

"Don't be complacent, it's just that you got the emperor's favor before me, if it wasn't for..." The queen clenched her fists and did not continue to speak after all.

Concubine Qiu narrowed her eyes, and suddenly sneered: "Why? The queen also has difficulties? It's really rare. Does a person who can send Mei Er, whom she regards as her own sister and loves to the emperor, have difficulties? Ridiculous, It's ridiculous!"

"What about you? What have you done? Meier's entry into the palace was arranged by me, but after Meier entered the palace, she lived happily. She likes the emperor, and the emperor likes her. I have never been jealous of Meier. It's you who want her to disappear!"

"You're not jealous because you don't love the emperor. That's right. I wish she could disappear, but I don't want to. I have never laid hands on her. She was pregnant with Hui'er in Meiyuan and Bengong. When there was a dispute, I didn’t mean to provoke her on purpose. I always felt guilty about her death, but what about you? If you hadn’t been the one who sowed discord in the middle, would Meier have come to question me? How did she know about those dirty things? All kinds!"

"It's not all because of you. You tried to harm her again and again. If Bengong didn't stop you, Mei'er would have died long ago."

"I didn't. It's not uncommon for me to kill anyone, but I will definitely not attack Meier."

"Don't act like you're innocent. Others will believe it, but I don't. Even if you didn't arrange those things, you still have something to do with them."

"Yes, but Empress, I am not the only person who can't get rid of the responsibility. You and I are responsible for Mei'er's death, but why is it that I am the only one who is hated in the end? How do you explain this?"

"Because of this, I have always treated Hui'er like my own daughter."

"Really?" Qiu Guifei sneered: "Then I would like to ask, how much can the empress do for Huier? For Huier's safety, can you die?"

The queen raised her eyes, stared at Concubine Qiu Gui sharply, and asked coldly, "What do you mean?"

"Nothing interesting, just curious."

"Qiu Guifei is really curious about many things, but it seems that whether I am willing to answer or not has nothing to do with you. The curiosity of the noble concubine is the business of the noble concubine. I am not responsible for satisfying your curiosity."

"That's right, the queen doesn't need to answer, anyway, I already know the answer."

The queen narrowed her eyes and sneered: "The imperial concubine is still so self-righteous, haven't you suffered enough in this regard?"

These words obviously made Concubine Qiu think of something not so good, she immediately looked ugly, and said coldly: "The empress really knows how to joke, everyone knows whether this palace has suffered, or else this palace has been out of favor for so many years. No one in the harem dares to yell at me, after all, the emperor still has me in his heart."

Concubine Qiu knew that the last thing the queen wanted to hear was this sentence. For so many years, the emperor has always had Concubine Qiu in his heart. Even though she did so much to her back then, the emperor was very angry on the surface. They no longer favor Concubine Qiu, but everyone in the harem can tell that the emperor doesn't really dislike her anymore, it's just a different way. Over the years, Concubine Qiu has done so many unreasonable things , does the emperor really not know?
There is no such possibility, there are very few things in the harem that can be hidden from the emperor, the emperor just turned a blind eye to it, to put it bluntly, because he knew that those things were done by Concubine Qiu, that's why he didn't Willing to mention it, and even perfunctory every time, to help her tide over the difficulties.

This man who controls the life and death of all the women in the harem has always been protecting Concubine Qiu. For so many years, there is only one queen in this harem, but there is only one noble concubine.

Isn't the Queen uncomfortable about this?She just didn't say it out. In the final analysis, it's not that the queen has no feelings for the emperor, but she is very glad that she knows that she can't have feelings for such a man, otherwise she will become like Concubine Qiu, she just She is more sensible, but most of the time, she hates this reason.
