Return after the phoenix falls

Chapter 111 The Covenant (2)
Su'er and the others retreated hesitantly, looking at the smiling Mu Wan, they always had doubts in their hearts, but they had to listen to the queen's words, so they moved outside the palace gate step by step.

Seeing that the palace people had all gone down, the queen said: "Okay, everyone has gone down, what does Concubine Zhaogui want to say to this palace?"

Mu Wan got up, went to the queen, and smiled quietly: "Queen, the concubine knows that my existence threatens you, the queen, that's why you and the discordant concubine Wan are going to deal with the concubine, right?"

The queen didn't expect Mu Wan to be so sharp, and she was speechless for a while. After a long time, she looked at Mu Wan's deep eyes and sneered, "So what."

"But why didn't the empress find another ally? Why did she find Concubine Wan? Didn't the Empress ever think that Concubine Wan hated you to the bone? Don't you worry that she will stab you in the back again?"

The queen stood up abruptly, pointed at Mu Wan, and scolded, "What does Zhaogui mean by this? Are you trying to provoke the relationship between me and Wanfei? Zhaogui, you are too presumptuous, don't think that the emperor loves you , you are so defiant, I am the queen!"

"The concubine knows that the empress is the queen, and the concubine said these words without any malice. She just weighed the pros and cons with the empress. Does the empress really think that she can pull the concubine down with the help of Concubine Wan's ruthless cleverness?"

Seeing that the queen was silent, Mu Wan continued: "Empress, you should understand that the world belongs to the emperor, and the harem also belongs to the emperor. Whoever the emperor loves can do whatever he wants. As long as the concubines are a little smarter, Concubine Wan, she Will a concubine who has fallen out of favor be a match for a concubine?"

"Empress, the concubine said so much. Could it be that you still don't understand, so the concubine simply explained it clearly. Does the empress know why the concubine entered the palace?"

A suspected crack finally appeared on the queen's cold face, and she asked softly, "Why?"

"Does the queen still remember the incident that caused a sensation in the capital three years ago, the incident where the prince of the king of the kingdom beat someone to death in the street?"

"What does this have to do with you?"

Mu Wan quietly, with deep nostalgia in her tone: "That man is admired by the courtiers and concubines. Although he has no fame, he is full of talent. My father has already accepted it. As long as he can get the honor, He agreed with us to be together, but... he was beaten to death by the son of the Duke of Wanguo."

At this point, tears dripped from the corners of Mu Wan's eyes, making people feel pity.

"That's why I want to enter the palace. There is no way to take revenge if you have no power or power. This concubine vows to bury the whole family of the Wan clan with him!"

The queen looked at Concubine Zhaogui suspiciously, and said: "Could it be that Concubine Zhaogui is not afraid that this palace will tell the emperor about this?"

Mu Wan was full of confidence, "The empress won't. The empress has been in power for so many years, she will definitely weigh the pros and cons. Besides, there is no way to investigate this matter. Telling the emperor is just futile. The empress is suspected by the emperor."

"You also said that there is no way to investigate this matter, how can you make me believe it?"

Mu Wan didn't retreat but advanced, and looked at the queen: "The queen just watch quietly, if you don't believe me, the concubine can't help it, but, in the end, the concubine doesn't want to be an enemy of the queen, I just want to get rid of the empress because I said so much today. After defeating Wanfei, the queen can satisfy her concubines."

"What's the matter?"

Mu Wan lowered her voice: "The concubine wants to leave the palace."

The queen was shocked in an instant, and looked at Mu Wan in disbelief, with a little surprise in her eyes: "Going out of the palace? Concubine Zhaogui is really big-hearted. All the women who enter the palace have never been able to go out, let alone..."

"You don't have to worry about this, the queen. I will have my own way to leave the palace. I don't want to be trapped by this red wall for the rest of my life. If the empress agrees to help my concubine at that time, then this concubine is willing to be the gun in the queen's hand. Sweep away all obstacles in front of you!"

The Queen's face finally showed a hint of emotion. Everyone in Mu Wan's doting harem was watching. With her help, it would not be impossible to bring down Concubine Wan and the others, but...

"The concubine knows that the empress still has concerns in her heart. At that time, the empress thought about it, why didn't the empress take a gamble for the future of the eldest prince?"

When mentioning the eldest prince, the queen paused, turned around, and said: "Okay, I promise you to deal with Concubine Wan and the others together with you, but if you don't keep your word, I will have my own way to let you You regret it forever!"

"The concubine will definitely not disappoint the empress."
