Concubine's true colors

Chapter 759 Zhou Yi Was Arrested

It is indeed a reasonable thing for a mother to accept that biological brothers and sisters kill each other and assassinate each other.

But since Xiao Jinxuan has already decided to tell the truth about what the Empress Dowager Chen was eager to escape from the palace four years ago but had no chance to tell, then even though this reality is very cruel, she still has to finish her speech.

So I saw Xiao Jinxuan suddenly smiled with emotion, and then said with a soft sigh:

"Concubine Liang, you have lived in the deep palace for a long time all your life, and the children of the royal family are killing each other, and you are probably more aware of the power struggle than Jinxuan. And why didn't Xiangping attack Emperor Qi? After all, you, the birth mother, don't All for the sake of gaining power, they fed the emperor's son the medicine of tiger and wolf, completely ignoring whether the other party's body could bear it. Then why couldn't Xiangping assassinate Emperor Qi because of what happened to Mo Lingzhi back then. After all, our The eighth princess, it's not like you don't know how madly in love with Mo Linzhi's guard, and even suffering from madness because of him."

The Empress Dowager Chen, who had already been questioned by Xiao Jinxuan's words, was so disturbed, she asked in amazement:

"Mo Linzhi? What's the matter with the other party? In recent years, Xiangping's child has indeed become more ruthless, but I believe she will not do something like killing the king and brother. Xiao Jinxuan, Xianrui was killed by you Damn, you can't argue with this evidence."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan snorted and smiled, then said with a cold snort:

"If Emperor Qi was really killed by me, then why did I, Xiao Jinxuan, come back to seek my own death, and why did I have to confess my identity to your empress in order to explain clearly what happened back then. As for your so-called solid evidence, could it be that empress saw me feed Qi Qi with her own eyes? The emperor's poison will not work. What's more, when I was imprisoned in Zhaoyang Palace and Zhou Xianrui died, I was avoiding the killers sent by Xiangping and Ji Lingfeng, and I was eager to escape from the palace. As long as the empress dowager matches the time with each other, she can know the secret. The person who poisoned and killed Emperor Qi was definitely not me. As for why I mentioned Mo Lingzhi, could it be that the empress has forgotten that Yan Luo tear back then. The other party's bones turned into thick blood. Therefore, I, the person who has the medicine in my hand, and Emperor Qi, the person who finally took the medicine, are the murderers who indirectly killed Mo Lingzhi in Xiangping's eyes. So she wants to get rid of us, It's just for revenge, ma'am, you should know that Xiangping is insane, and her thinking is already very different from that of normal people. Xiangping can do this kind of thing with Ji Lingfeng's instigation."

Xiao Jinxuan's words are not only well-founded, but also extremely reasonable.

Empress Dowager Chen, who gradually calmed down, also thought that four years ago, she fell into the desire for power step by step, and cruelly drugged Zhou Xianrui, her own son. It seemed that it was indeed because of Xiangping's constant instigation.

When many things happen, people don't feel abnormal.

But when I think about it carefully, some loopholes and deep meanings will slowly emerge.

The more you think about it now, the more Empress Dowager Chen realizes that she started targeting Xiao Jinxuan four years ago.

In the end, she shot Zhou Xianrui in order to gain power, and after the eldest son died, she pushed Zhou Xianchen to the throne.

It seemed that she, the empress dowager, was in the leading position, but the direction of the matter was indeed led by Xiangping.

And if it weren't for this daughter, she would always be by her side to advise and occasionally give advice.

Empress Dowager Chen suddenly discovered that she might not have thought that Xiao Jinxuan was similar to Queen Xue back then, and would become the second Xue Yi to oppose her.

Not to mention that for the sake of the imperial power, he would repeatedly injure Zhou Xianrui's body and feed him the medicine of tiger and wolf.

Before Zhou Xianrui died, the imperial decree was originally drafted for Zhou Xianyu to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.

It was also Xiangping who said that this son was an adopted son after all, and the other party became the emperor, so he would definitely discuss with the Queen Mother about Xiao Jinxuan's confinement and persecution.

So I didn't think about it, let alone have the courage, to be the empress dowager Chen who burned Zhou Xianrui's edict and tampered with the matter of becoming emperor.

It was entirely under Xiangping's persuasion and Ji Lingfeng's push and plan that Zhou Xianchen was supported on the throne, and she listened to the government behind the curtain.

But now I gradually realized that when I was just more like a chess piece pushed to the front, Empress Chen really couldn't make a deal.

"Xiao Jinxuan, although your words seem to be reasonable, but they are also groundless. Xiang'er is the biological daughter of the Ai family. This child didn't even dare to kill a rabbit since he was a child. How could he dare to poison his brother. And you are now Returning to Dazhou as Princess Changde means that you are indeed of Beirong blood. And when you raised Zhou Yi's child, he was not a member of the royal family. Ai Jia knew that, but everyone thought he was a wise man His own flesh and blood. When Xianrui was seriously ill, he had no heirs. If you poison him and push Zhou Yi to become emperor, you can control the imperial power of Dazhou yourself. So compared with Xianger, your motivation is greater, so I definitely don’t like it. I will believe your one-sided words just now."

Seeing her telling the truth for a long time, Empress Dowager Chen didn't believe her at all.

Xiao Jinxuan also felt inexplicably tired about this empress dowager who had no status but no plans at all, but she had to continue:
"Empress Dowager, although outsiders don't know that Zhou Yi is not a prince, but other than Qidi and me, you, Xiangping, and even King Yongchang and Zhou Xianyu all know. If I really want to push this child to the throne, Poisoning Zhou Xianrui alone is not enough. Those of you who know the inside story can only implement this plan by killing me. Not only is the risk too high, but the possibility of success is too low. This kind of self-seeking thing. Whether you believe me or not, I have made it clear. But you'd better not think about targeting me like four years ago. After all, Beirong 20 Wan Dajun is here, and I have to weigh the consequences if I want to move you. In addition, I would like to advise you on the last sentence, be careful of Xiangping and Ji Lingfeng, and don't let them lead you by the nose. Otherwise, if Dazhou Sheji really falls into the hands of others, The scapegoat of this eternal sinner will definitely be pinned on you."

Today, Empress Dowager Chen came here for her nephew Chen Shuhang, but now because of Xiao Jinxuan's words, she would feel panic and uneasy.

Therefore, the Empress Dowager Chen couldn't take care of Chen Shuhang's matter anymore. She was even more afraid of Bei Rong's 20 soldiers and horses, so she didn't dare to do anything to Xiao Jinxuan easily.

So when Xiao Jinxuan finished speaking, when she was silently sipping tea quietly, Empress Dowager Chen felt that the atmosphere in the hall was so overwhelming that she could hardly breathe.

The majestic Empress Dowager Zhou finally pushed the door open as if fleeing, left the Prince Regent's Mansion in a hurry, boarded the Phoenix and went straight to the imperial city and returned.

Empress Chen's panic made Xiao Jinxuan know that the other party listened to what she said, but just didn't want to believe it.

As long as there is a buffer time for the other party, Xiao Jinxuan feels that it doesn't matter whether Queen Mother Chen will continue to exercise power.

But for Xiangping and Ji Lingfeng's words, the other party will definitely not accept all of them as in the past, and the relationship between them will inevitably have a rift.

What Xiao Jinxuan didn't know was that she was trying to drive a wedge between the queen mother and the party.

How could Ji Lingfeng, who already knew her true identity, be idle, and he was sitting in a dark main room in an abandoned courtyard in the suburbs of Beijing.

And standing in front of him was Zhou Yi who had just met Xiao Jinxuan in Shisong Town not long ago.

It's just that the child's face is covered with blood, and his whole body is trembling with fright, especially when he meets Ji Lingfeng's soft eyes, Zhou Yi is even more frightened, and can't stop stepping back.

Seeing Zhou Yi's panic-stricken look, Ji Lingfeng stood up slowly, and he held a dagger tightly in his hand, and pressed him step by step, and said with a chuckle:
"Good boy, don't be afraid. Although everyone in Shisong Town is dead, as long as you are willing to obey, Ji will promise you that he will never hurt you at all, and I will send you to the Dragon Throne and become one of the Ninth Five. Respect. Think about your life now, sleeping in a yellow mud room every day, and working hard for food and clothing at a young age. Zhou Yi, do you still remember your life when you were a prince? Don’t you want to enjoy the glory and wealth again? , and I, Ji Lingfeng, are the ones who came to help you."

Seeing Zhou Yi blindly backed away after listening to these words, he did not speak.

Ji Lingfeng snorted and played with the dagger in his hand, and then said:
"However, if you are the little prince Zhou Yi, if you don't want to live a life of more than ten million people, then Ji will also fulfill you. This will kill your life with one knife, and let you be like the people in the town. After you die, Burn you to ashes in a fire."

The blood on Zhou Yi's body now was sprayed on him when the people around him were beheaded to death on the way Ji Lingfeng forcibly took him away.

Thinking of those familiar folks in the street, begging in pain, but could not escape the end of death.

Zhou Yi was only a five or six-year-old child, so he couldn't bear Ji Lingfeng's intimidation, so he started crying immediately.

"Don't come here. The concubine knows she won't let you go. I'm not a prince, and I never thought of becoming an emperor. I don't remember anything. I want to go home."

Crying and crying, Zhou Yi was indeed frightened when he finished speaking incoherently, so he ran towards the door regardless.

But with him being a child of a few years old, how could he escape from Ji Lingfeng's palm.

Seeing that the other party stretched out his hand to grab it, he hugged Xiao Zhou Yi, who was screaming in fright, tightly in his arms.

Then Ji Lingfeng lowered his head and approached Zhou Yi's ear, and said in a gloomy and bewitching tone:

"Don't be afraid, silly boy. I'm here to help you become the emperor. As for the mother concubine you mentioned, you mean Xiao Jinxuan. I know she visited you, but the other party still kept you and didn't take you with her." Take it away by her side. She has changed her appearance now and has become a princess with a new identity. You are a burden in her eyes. Speaking of which, you will be caught by me now because Xiao Jinxuan didn't care about you and didn't bring you safely The reason for leaving. You still call this kind of person concubine mother, hoping that the other party will come to save you. Zhou Yi, you better stop dreaming, even if you die now, Xiao Jinxuan won't know, she doesn't care about you at all. My own adopted son."
