Rebirth after waste

Chapter 19

The Jiang Guiji at that time was the present Jiang Chongyi. At that time, she was just three months pregnant, and she was in the best of spring.

Every year on the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Zhonggong will give palace cakes to each palace as a gift.Gong Yipei's thoughts were set on the palace cake.She bribed a palace lady in the Xianchi Palace, asked her to find a chance to put red flowers and turmeric in the cake, and tried to hide it from the eunuch who was trying to eat it.Both safflower and yujin have the function of abortion, and it is obvious why Gongyipei intends to do this.It would be best if it succeeds, even if it fails and the investigation will only follow her, the empress, and has nothing to do with her.

The idea is sinister enough, if Gu Yunxian hadn't started to guard against her a long time ago, maybe he would have really fallen for her.

That night in Jiaofang Hall, after listening to Huan'er's report, she was silent for a long time before slowly saying: "You will do as she tells you."

Huan'er raised her head in horror: "But, empress...."

She looked up at the bright moonlight outside the window, her eyes were deep: "Perhaps, this is a chance given to me by God. I can get rid of two people who are obstructive at the same time."

When she said this, she struggled in her heart.Although Jiang Yuechang was arrogant and domineering and coveted her, the empress, what was in her stomach was an innocent life after all.Now she knows that Gong Yipei intends to murder the child, but she doesn't stop her. How is she any different from an accomplice?
But at that time, she was no longer qualified to be kind.In less than three months since Jing Fushu entered the palace, she had taken most of the limelight from her as a queen. If she let Jiang Yuechang give birth to a child again, her status would really be in jeopardy.

She had to become a villain, even though she knew there would be retribution sooner or later.

The following things are as she planned.Jiang Guiji used the palace cake she sent, and that night she had abdominal pains like wringing and redness. By the time the imperial doctor arrived, the child could no longer be kept.

What followed was a series of investigations and interrogations.She was passed to Xianchi Hall on the night of the second day, and the emperor sat at the head and looked at her indifferently.Jiang Guiji's face was pale, her eyes were red and swollen from crying, she stared at her, her canthus tearing apart: "You poisonous woman, you are the one who killed my child, didn't you!"

She had expected this situation long ago, so she just pretended to be at a loss: "I don't know! Your Majesty said that there are aborted turmeric and safflower in this palace cake, but I don't even know what those two things look like!"

The emperor was silent, Jiang Guiji sneered and said: "You will deny it now! This palace cake was sent by you, not the medicine you prescribed. Could it be that I am trying to harm my own child!"

She pursed her lips for a long time, and looked at the emperor with grief and indignation: "Even if the concubine really wanted to harm Jiang Guiji's child, how could she be so stupid and put medicine in the things she sent? Someone must be framed for this matter, please Your Majesty Mingcha!"

Suddenly, a little maidservant next to her collapsed to the ground, and everyone turned their heads in response, only to see that maiden's complexion was pale, and said in a hushed voice: "My maidservant, this maidservant suddenly remembered that yesterday I saw Su He carrying the palace cake to another place. At that time, my maidservant thought that she It’s for Empress Guiji...I didn’t expect this servant to..."

There was a big uproar.

Suhe was quickly brought out for interrogation. She looked calm at first, and responded calmly. When the emperor asked her about her relationship with the internal supervisor A Ping, who was trying to taste the food, she began to panic.

Gu Yunxian kept his head down, silently listening to the questions and answers around him.Suhe is the maid bought by Gongyipei. She has a very good personal relationship with the eunuch Aping who tasted the food. Many people secretly speculate that they are married. A Ping, it's all done by her.It's just that she was so ruthless that she even went all out with her opponent.

But at this moment, it's useless to be cruel.After being questioned and tortured several times, the dying Suhe finally uttered the truth: "Yes, it was Gongyimei who asked me to do this..."

Gong Yipei was reported to Xianchi Palace at night, and the news here finally got out, and many concubines who were not in Xianchi Palace also rushed to hear the news.As soon as Gong Yipei entered the door, she saw Su He who had been beaten half to death, and her face immediately turned pale.She knelt down and tried her best to argue, her beautiful facial features were filled with tears and made her more moving.The emperor didn't interrupt, and let her explain one by one, only her anxious voice was heard in the whole hall.Soon after, the eunuch who went to search Gongyipei's dormitory came back, bringing back half a bag of unused red flowers.

The evidence is conclusive, Gongyipei is gone, and there is no possibility of recovery.

If things really ended like this, Gu Yunxian could be regarded as a complete victory, and he would not end up in the current situation.

Just when everyone thought that everything was over, Bo Jinrou, who was still talented at that time, adjusted her eyebrows slightly, and said in surprise: "This matter really has nothing to do with the empress? Then why did I see Gong'e Huan'er, who was next to Gongyimei, starry night a few days ago?" How about going in and out of Changqiu Palace?"

Gu Yunxian clenched his fists tightly.

A long time later, when she was locked in the Jiaofang Palace waiting for the verdict, she thought about the past few days carefully and was convinced that she had been tricked by others from the very beginning.

Gongyipei can buy off the palace lady of Xianchi Palace, and she can put eyeliner around Gongyipei, so why can't she have people arranged by others by her side?

After tortured Huan'er three times, everyone has figured out what happened this time: the beauty of Gongyi poisoned the palace cake given to Jiang Guiji by the Empress Empress. Frame the queen.But the empress knew all of this clearly, but pushed the boat along the way, let her kill the emperor's descendant, and then used herself as a bait to shake her out.Both of these two people had a good plan, but no one was as good as the sky. Seeing that the queen's plan was about to succeed, Bo Cairen saw the clue and pointed out that Gong'e, who was next to Gongyimei, had a close relationship with the queen in private.

As for why Bo Cairen, who has always been impulsive and brainless, suddenly has such sharp eyes and ears, everyone subconsciously ignores it.

When Gu Yunxian heard that his dark thoughts were revealed mercilessly, he even forgot to defend himself.She knew that her retribution would come, but she didn't expect it to come so soon.

She knew that she was being calculated by someone, but she didn't know who the other party was.Zhen Jieyu or Shen Shuyi, or are they working together?She didn't know from which link they plotted against her, maybe from the very beginning, Gongyipei was persuaded by them to murder the emperor's descendants.

The mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole is behind.

This is truly killing three birds with one stone.

Both she and Gongyipei were locked up. Half a month later, on the third day of September, she knelt in the center of the Jiaofang Hall and was deposed as a queen.On the same night, Gongyipei received the white silk from the Queen Mother, and threw it in her bedroom to hang herself.

They fought back and forth in the past, but when they encountered bad luck, they got together.

What an irony.

Thinking about Gongyipei again, Gu Yunxian panicked.That was the first time she did a real evil thing, and she was punished immediately. It cannot but be said that God has eyes.

Compared with her misery, the luck of the other few people is much better.Although Jiang Guiji lost her child, the emperor felt pity for her and made an exception to promote her as Chongyi, second only to Shen Shuyi.Bo Jinrou also became a beauty because of her meritorious deeds, and gained a lot of limelight.Gu Yunxian was suddenly a little curious. If Bo Jinrou knew at that time that she would die under the influence of political scheming in half a year, would she be so happy?
That night, Emperor Xing Chang'an Palace.

Gu Yunxian didn't greet him at the gate of the palace according to the rules, the emperor was a little surprised.As soon as she entered the door, she saw her confidant maid, Aci, greet her and saluted: "Your Majesty, Sheng'an. My lady is not feeling well today, and she has already rested now."

"Already rested?" The emperor raised his eyebrows.

Ah Ci complained endlessly in her heart.In the afternoon, His Majesty sent someone to say that he would come over in the evening, but her own lady went to bed first. Such an unruly thing made her heart tremble when she talked about it.

"Yes... my lady, it's very uncomfortable."

Aci's stuttering appearance made the emperor a little impatient, but he was more curious, thinking about what happened to the mysterious girl now, he stepped forward and walked towards the East Hall.

The east hall was burning with incense, and the smell was as elegant and moving as hers. He felt his mind relax after a busy half day, and he just wanted to close his eyes and sleep peacefully here.

Gu Yunxian lay on the couch with his back facing him, and he sat down on the edge of the couch, looking at her fair face and butterfly-like eyelashes.

"Yunniang." He called softly.She didn't move.He stroked her black hair on the temples, and laughed: "Who is asleep, and the eyeballs are still moving?"

She slowly opened her eyes, turned her head to look at him, her dark eyes were as calm as water.

"What's the matter?" He was slightly stunned, "What happened, you pretended to be sick and didn't want to see me."

When he said this, his tone froze slightly.Originally, when he saw that Gu Yunxian was pretending to be asleep, he didn't think much about it.The court concubines made a lot of tricks of refusal and welcome, and in the end it was not to attract his attention.But just at that moment, when he saw Gu Yun's envious lake-like calm gaze, he suddenly had a thought: Maybe she really didn't want to see him.

It felt so weird and made him uncomfortable.

"Your Majesty, have you ever done anything you regret?" She said suddenly, looking straight at him.

He was slightly stunned, his eyes drooped, and he never noticed that Gu Yunxian was staring at him almost paranoidly.

It was obviously a topic that could be changed casually, but thousands of thoughts turned in his mind, and he really started to think about it.

"Is there anything to regret?" In his life, everything he did was what he wanted in his heart, and it was really hard to find anything he regretted.But seeing that little face staring at her eagerly, he suddenly didn't want to disappoint her, "If you really want to ask, maybe there is one."

Gu Yunxian looked at him, with anticipation in his heart that he couldn't understand.

"Perhaps half a year ago, when Jiang Chongyi's incident happened, I should have listened to your explanation more. Then maybe it doesn't need to be so troublesome now." He flicked her forehead, as if they were still teenagers.

After saying this, he stared at her intently.I thought she would show a smile, but I saw that she just lowered her head and there was no expression on her face.

He was a little disappointed.
