Chapter 147 Harem Fight

Jiang Qingyue glanced at her sideways, "So, Madam, you want me to plead for Jiang Guiyu?"

Madam Jiang shook her head. "This should have been her fate, but at the beginning... we were deceived by her, and we were worried about her poor health, so..."

Mrs. Jiang's voice became softer and softer as she spoke the following words. In the end, she felt like there was something stuck in her throat and she couldn't utter a single word.

I didn’t think so before, but now I think about it, Jiang Guiyu is in poor health, so poor Jiang Qingyue should become my brother-in-law’s concubine?

Mrs. Jiang felt so guilty that she lowered her head and wiped away her tears.

She held Jiang Qingyue's hand, and when Jiang Qingyue subconsciously pulled back, she used some strength to hold it tightly.

"Qingyue, Lu Ting came to propose marriage two days ago, saying that you two knew each other in Northern Xinjiang and had been engaged at the behest of his grandmother. Why didn't you tell me earlier? If you had told me earlier..."

"Could you have given me the engagement at that time?"

Mrs. Jiang suddenly became speechless.

Jiang Qingyue pulled her hand away forcefully. "Master Lu has a bright future. I dare not delay him."

Mrs. Jiang wanted to persuade her again, but seeing that she was so determined, she was afraid that she was pushing her too far, and it would be even more difficult for the mother and daughter to get close to each other, so she had to give up.

When they arrived at the Marquis Xuanping's Mansion, He Peilan only talked to Jiang Qingyue and ignored her cousin Madam Jiang.

In the past, Mrs. Jiang would definitely be unhappy, but today she followed them silently. When He Peilan turned around, she could actually see her looking at Jiang Qingyue with satisfaction.

He Peilan couldn't help but sneer.

The Jiang family knew what kind of person their adopted daughter was, and now they finally see the good in their biological daughter?

It's too late.

Xie Shuyan knew she was coming, so she dressed up specially.

When she saw Jiang Qingyue, she ran up to her happily. She was about to gesture to show her what she meant, but Jiang Qingyue grabbed her wrist and started to take her pulse.

Afterwards, he gave Shuyan an injection in front of the two of them.

When the needle was inserted, Shuyan actually cried out in pain.

"Shu Yan!"

He Peilan almost cried with joy.

Her daughter could actually speak.

Mrs. Jiang was also shocked.

Xie Shuyan had been aphasic for three years, and the Xuanping Marquisate had sought out renowned doctors, all to no avail. Yet, Jiang Qingyue only needed one injection, and she could speak again?

Are Jiang Qingyue's medical skills really that advanced?

Xie Shuyan didn't expect that she would actually shout out loud, and she was stunned for a moment.

Jiang Qingyue, however, had a calm expression on her face, as if what she did was just the most ordinary thing.

"Miss Xie has been taking my medicine for so long, it's time for her to speak again. I'll come over every two weeks to give her acupuncture. Within two months, she should be able to speak like before."

He Peilan was ecstatic and was about to ask someone to call Xie Lingyun and Lord Xie over, but when she caught a glimpse of Madam Jiang next to her, she skipped Xie Lingyun and only mentioned Lord Xie.

Mrs. Jiang was genuinely happy for Xie Shuyan, and her words were more pleasant to the ear. He Peilan was already happy, and now she looked at her with a more favorable impression.

When returning from the Marquis' Mansion, Mrs. Jiang held Jiang Qingyue's hand and kept praising her for being so great.

The first and second time, Jiang Qingyue withdrew her hand indifferently, but Mrs. Jiang seemed not to notice and continued to talk to her.

As soon as they arrived at the mansion, someone from the palace came with gifts.

After asking around, I found out that it was a reward from Empress Zhenfei.

Everyone in the Jiang family knows that the second young lady, who was once so glorious, is not even a hair's breadth inferior to the third young lady.

The third young lady is not only a biological daughter, but also a person with real abilities.

How can that fake guy pretending to be sick compare to the Third Young Lady?

Not only the servants said this, but the other members of the Jiang family were also amazed and regretted that they had mistaken fish eyes for pearls.

After nightfall, Jiang Qingyue just turned off the lights and was about to lie down when she noticed someone behind her.

She turned around suddenly and stabbed the hairpin that she had just hidden in her hand.

A hand steadily stopped her movement, and then she heard a familiar laugh in her ears.

"It's been so long, and my skills haven't improved."

It’s Xie Lingyun.

Jiang Qingyue's tense body relaxed, and there was a hint of anger in her tone.

"What are you doing here?"

"I heard you made a great contribution, so I came to celebrate."

Although the lights were off in the room, the moonlight from outside shone through the window paper, giving him a hazy halo.

The young general, who was usually cold and arrogant, now had become a little gentler.

but……

"My cousin, you have nothing in your hands. How are you going to celebrate?"

Xie Lingyun didn't say anything, but just handed her a letter.

"I'll come see you again in half a month."

After saying this, Xie Lingyun left.

Jiang Qingyue lit the candle again and opened the letter...

The next day, Jiang Qingyue returned to the palace.

As expected, as soon as she returned to Wanshou Palace, she was called by the nanny to a deserted place.

The nanny told Jiang Qingyue that she should poison Concubine Zhen when she was treating her. She thought Jiang Qingyue would refuse, but she agreed immediately.

She agreed so readily that the nanny became a little suspicious.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Qingyue took the initiative to talk about her experience in Northern Xinjiang and told about the injustice the Jiang family had treated her.

Now, she only wants power.

And her power can only depend on Concubine Wan.

Mammy nodded in satisfaction.

He is a man who knows the times.

"However, the security in Fu'an Palace is very tight. When I was treating Concubine Zhen, four palace maids were watching me, so it was not easy to take action. This matter needs to be carefully considered."

Zhenfei has always been cautious, and the nanny knows this.

"No matter what method you use, as long as you can kill Concubine Zhen, you will be serving our Imperial Concubine. In the future, everything you want will naturally come to you."

Jiang Qingyue nodded in agreement.

"Since you have such awareness, I will definitely put in a good word for you from the Empress' side."

Jiang Qingyue tactfully handed over a silver note worth one hundred taels, and the nanny was not polite and accepted it directly.

Sure enough, that afternoon, someone from Fu'an Palace came to invite him.

Concubine Wan pretended to stop her for a while, then "carelessly" let Jiang Qingyue sneak out.

When they arrived at Fu'an Palace, Jiang Qingyue paid her respects, then took out the letter from Xie Lingyun from her underwear and presented it to Concubine Zhen.

After reading the letter, Zhenfei looked solemn.

"Are you really sure?"

"As long as Your Majesty is willing to cooperate, this subject will be able to do it."

Zhenfei pursed her lips and remained silent, as if she was hesitating.

Jiang Qingyue took a drastic measure.

"The last time I examined Her Majesty, her pulse indicated that she had suffered damage to her body three years ago, which is why she has been childless. If Her Majesty trusts me, I can cure her and help her have a child."

Zhen Fei tightened her grip, "Can you really do this?"

Jiang Qingyue nodded and answered with certainty.

"Your Majesty is only injured, not childless. Since I said it's possible, I must be confident."

Concubine Zhen gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I agree to this."

Jiang Qingyue suddenly knelt down and said, "I have something else I must tell your Majesty."

Seeing her like this, Zhenfei's expression froze.

"Concubine Wan, do you want me to kill you?"
