The wicked girl

Chapter 301

A slightly hoarse voice lingered in his ears, and Ye Kui repeated it in surprise: "You mean...the emperor doesn't like His Highness the Crown Prince?"

Po Chi didn't hesitate at all, still smiled wryly, nodded slightly, and said seriously: "The relationship between the emperor and the former empress is actually not as beautiful as the outside world says. It's even not good at all."

Ye Kui couldn't help sighing secretly when she heard the words, sat closer to Po Chi, and asked softly: "Grandma, you were originally serving the emperor, right?"

"Yes..." Po Chi nodded, put away the slightly bitter smile on her face, frowned and said, "It's just that it's been 13 years since I came out of the palace. Some things may have changed. I have never known it. What I knew back then is still somewhat the same as in the past.” She sighed heavily and said, “Thirteen years have passed in the blink of an eye. , There are some things that cannot be easily concluded at all.”

Ye Kui lowered her eyes and agreed: "That's true." However, after she finished speaking, she still couldn't help but said, "But it's better than not knowing at all. With my mother-in-law, my heart is much more peaceful."

Chi Po laughed when she heard this, pressed her finger on her blind eye, and said to her, "This eye has been blind for 13 years."

Curiosity was like a cat's paw scratching, and it suddenly came out from the bottom of my heart.

Subconsciously, Ye Kui wanted to ask Po Chi why her eyes were blind, but she buried all these words in her heart in an instant.What is buried deep must never come out of the mouth.She has already discovered what Chi Po deliberately concealed, so how can she continue to sprinkle salt on the wound that may still not be completely healed?

too cruel.

Because I know that it must be a very painful past, so I can't continue to ask.

But who knows, this time she didn't ask, but Po Chi said it herself.

With a wry smile and a sigh, after a while her expression returned to normal.Her calm face couldn't see what she was thinking, and the corners of her eyes and brows didn't even reveal a trace of her heart. It was far calmer than when she just talked about Emperor Chengzhen and the prince.

But there must be a lot of pain hidden in this calmness.

Some people are probably like this, the more sad they feel in their hearts, the calmer their faces become.

"Look, why do people have a pair of eyes instead of one? Obviously, only one eye is enough to see the world clearly." Chi Po let go of her fingers, and pointed at her blind eyes from a distance of one palm. The missing eye said with a calm expression, "I used to think this way all the time, but it wasn't until this eye was really blind that I realized that there was a reason for its existence after all. Because it was blind Only then can I stay alive and come out of that man-eating place completely intact."

When Ye Kui heard the sound, her heart gradually lifted.

What Po Chi said next must be very important, very, very important.

Everyone has secrets, the origin of her soul, Pei Changge's life experience... Of course, Po Chi is no exception.There must be her secrets in her body.

That blind eye lived alone in the bamboo forest of Taohua Village for more than ten years. These things, which are very strange to anyone, must have something very secret.

And at this moment, the secret was about to be revealed in front of her.

Ye Kui sat with her lapel straight, quietly watching Po Chi speak, telling all the dusty past.

Thirteen years ago, it had been seven years since Emperor Chengzhen ascended the throne.The Xiao family has also been destroyed, and the Pei family has also been dormant.That is to say, in this year, the former empress who had been by Emperor Chengzhen's side since he was the prince passed away.

The former empress had only one son, who is now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

She and Emperor Chengzhen were originally a husband and wife in need, and in the eyes of outsiders, their relationship was as good as it could be.Accompanying Emperor Chengzhen all the way from the unfavored prince to the throne, how much suffering she has suffered during this period, only she knows clearly in her heart.After giving birth to the crown prince, the former queen's health deteriorated day by day, and she was unable to add a brother to His Highness the crown prince.

At that time, Po Chi wasn't Po Po Chi yet.

At that time, she was still Mistress Chi in the palace.

She was the maid who had been serving on the side of Emperor Chengzhen before he ascended the throne of God. When Emperor Chengzhen settled in Da Nei, she would naturally rise with the tide.It's just that at that time, she didn't like excitement by nature, and she didn't like to make friends with others. There were not a few people in the palace who were jealous of her.

Of all the nobles in the palace, who doesn't want to curry favor with her and get rid of her?

Because she was not only able to speak in front of Emperor Chengzhen, she was also very talkative in front of the former empress.

Perhaps it was because she had appeared in front of Emperor Chengzhen and the Empress from the very beginning, so these two people were much more at ease with her than with others.

So on that spring day 13 years ago, when the queen found out that she was pregnant again, she transferred Po Chi, who was still a female official at that time, to her side to serve her.Emperor Chengzhen was also in favor of this matter.This can be regarded as one of the appearances of harmony between their husband and wife.

Po Chi became a very strange link between the two.

At that time, her relationship with the former queen was also very close.Even, sometimes the first queen treats her like a sister.This kind of thing fell into the eyes of others, and it became more and more difficult to have any good feelings for Chi Po.

Jealousy, desire, but disgust.

Similarly, the first empress also had a very difficult time walking in the palace, and even walked on thin ice after she became pregnant.

The first queen's health was not good, and after she became pregnant, just raising the baby was already exhausting.As time went by, she began to feel overwhelmed with the affairs of the harem.

Concubine Pei Gui also entered the palace at that time, but she also failed to give birth to an heir at that time, so her status is naturally quite different from what it is now.At that time, she was absolutely not qualified to help the former empress take charge of the harem.So at that time, the person who took over the power of the six palaces from the powerless first queen was Concubine Yu.

Hearing this, Ye Kui finally couldn't help asking: "Concubine Yu?"

She couldn't help but find it strange that she had never heard of Concubine Yu.If 13 years ago, she would have been able to take over the right to be in charge of the trivial affairs of the Six Palaces from the previous empress. After 13 years, how beautiful will this jade concubine be?
Or, after that, the Jade Concubine has disappeared, completely gone?

But Chi Po's words were different from what she thought.

Chi Po just narrowed her eyes slightly, as if she was trying to remember but she seemed to be unable to remember the Concubine Yu, and said, "Concubine Yu is very low-key, I am afraid that even now, she is still the same as she was back then."

When Ye Kui heard this, she couldn't help thinking of Concubine Pei.

She stroked her belly and said, "Do you mean that it is not because the current Concubine Pei is too flamboyant, but because this Concubine Yu is too low-key to let go of the right to hold the Peacock Seal?"

"Why do you think so?" Chi Po couldn't help but wondered.

Ye Kui laughed, and said: "It seems that I guessed correctly? This concubine Yu's appearance is not just low-key, it seems that she is not just low-key. She is far more advanced than Concubine Pei. Niangniang's way of making publicity is infinitely smarter. The real masters are not born. Are you right?"

It is enough to hide yourself with shadows.

As long as this is the case, she must be able to do many things that others cannot do, right?
For example, Concubine Yu has been so low-key that Ye Kui has never even heard her name.Such a person, on the truth, seems to have no flaws.Because she is hiding deep enough, she will always be the only one who looks at the people in the light in the dark, and there will never be a time when others will notice her first.

Foresight.

Maybe that's what it said.

But why did Concubine Yu take over the rights from the previous empress 13 years ago?Doesn't this seem to be incompatible with her style of acting?Or was it that at that time, Concubine Yu was far from being as insightful as she is now?After all, 13 years back in time, she should still be a young woman, right?
Po Chi seemed to have read her mind, and continued to speak.

The reason why Empress Xian chose Concubine Yu instead of others was precisely because she liked her low-key and steady temperament.Moreover, she has been in the palace for several years, and Concubine Yu has never made any mistakes.Such a person, in the eyes of the former empress, is very suitable to temporarily replace her.

There is only one reason.

The first empress thought that such a person would be in charge of the Sixth Palace for her temporarily, and after she gave birth to a child, she would be able to regain her rights equally smoothly.

In addition, due to Concubine Yu's temperament, during this period of time, there will not be too many mistakes in the palace.

It's a pity that the first queen thought that she was extremely thoughtful and there were no loopholes.But in the end, because of this decision, he made a mistake that would never be changed in his life.This single mistake caused her to lose her child and her life, and also gave her the queen's position.

"It's just such a decision!" Chi Po gritted her teeth and said such a sentence, her eyes suddenly became fierce.

Ye Kui looked at her and said, "Concubine Yu killed the queen?"

Po Chi sneered coldly, but her tone was sad, "The former empress saw the wrong person, and I also saw the wrong person. Concubine Yu, if you don't make a move, it's fine, if you make a move, it will be a killer move that will never turn around!"

"Did Concubine Yu give birth to a prince?" Ye Kui suddenly thought of a certain possibility and asked anxiously.

Po Chi frowned and said, "Your Highness the Seventh Prince."

Ye Kui's eyelids twitched when he heard this, and Huo Di accidentally knocked over the teacup beside him, exclaiming, "So that's how it is!"

Seeing this, Po Chi knew that she had figured out something, so she asked, "What did you think of?"

"I've been thinking about it before, if the crown prince is abolished, who among the remaining princes will be established as the crown prince. I thought it was the fifth prince who was the most likely, but now it seems that I was wrong." Ye Kui shook her head , said slowly.

Chi Po frowned even tighter, and suddenly said: "The first queen, surnamed Xiao."
