Chapter 73 He was originally mine!

The next evening.

Before the palace gates closed.

The carriage drove in slowly.

Bai Wutong leaned in Zhang Chengyan's arms, quietly admiring the high walls and deep palace under the sunset.

So beautiful, yet so desolate.

Zhang Chengyan was going to deal with government affairs, so Bai Wutong did not disturb him. Instead, he returned to Zhaochun Palace and prepared to have a good rest.

After all, it is a palace, much better than the Huguo Temple.

Lying on the familiar bed, she quickly fell asleep.

The first rays of morning sun pierced through the darkness and shone onto the crimson palace walls.

This also indicates that the morning court is about to begin.

He went to court again after many days, and the court ended an hour later than usual.

When Zhang Chengyan returned to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, Wang Decai immediately ordered someone to bring him breakfast.

The Queen Mother walked into the palace with the side dishes she had made herself, and said, "The Emperor has been away for a long time, and I miss him very much."

"Mother, let's have dinner together."

The Queen Mother sat on Zhang Chengyan's right, took out some side dishes and placed them on the table. "Emperor, when are you planning to hold my birthday banquet?"

Zhang Chengyan swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "In a few days."

He hasn't decided on the exact time yet.

The Queen Mother did not ask any more questions. She changed the subject and talked about the previous matter of the snow lotus seeds. "Your Majesty, I have already investigated it clearly. This matter has nothing to do with Concubine Wen. She was also framed. As for who is the mastermind behind it, it is no longer known. The maid in the Queen's palace who was responsible for leading the way to change clothes bit her tongue and committed suicide after entering the Ministry of Punishment. The clue is cut here."

Zhang Chengyan had expected this, but Wen Chuyun was not innocent. "The matter of the snow lotus seeds may have nothing to do with her, but the dress soaked in red flowers was given by her. She is extremely vicious by nature."

The Queen Mother took a piece of food with chopsticks and placed it in front of him. "That dress was sent before the heir was born. It can only be said that she has some bad intentions, but it is far from vicious. If you don't have some tricks, how can you survive in this deep palace? Emperor, I will not allow Concubine Wen to contact Concubine Zhao in the future, but you still have to favor her. Concubine Wen is very suitable for pregnancy in all aspects, so don't lose the big picture for the small one."

Zhang Chengyan suppressed his disgust. The Queen Mother held considerable power, so he could not tear his face off. "Since my mother has said so, then let Concubine Wen leave the cold palace. She will be confined first until Concubine Zhao has been in prison for three months."

He had already given in, and the Queen Mother knew she couldn't ask for more. She smiled and picked up the teacup, "Your Majesty has been working hard these days. I will have someone take good care of you later."

——

The gate of Yaoguang Palace was closed.

Jin Weige stared at the palace door with a ferocious look on his face.

Xiyue stepped forward cautiously, "My Lady, please don't be angry."

"I was wondering why that bitch was able to come out of the Huguo Temple alive."

If Jin Zhi had not found an opportunity to take action in the palace before, she could still understand it.

But why was she able to survive after leaving the palace and going to a place like the Huguo Temple, and even come back with the emperor?

This is not what Jin Weige wants to see!

She grasped Xiyue's hand tightly, the armor piercing into the flesh, blood flowing out, "Go and tell big brother, I must ask clearly! That bitch, why is she still alive!"

Xiyue felt pain but didn't dare to resist. She could only wait for Jin Weige to vent his anger and then let go.

After a long time, the hand finally loosened.

Xiyue ignored the pain and bowed, saying, "I will go and deliver the message right away."

In the afternoon, the letter was delivered to Jin Zhi.

After reading the contents, he burned it all with a blank expression.

He should indeed go to the palace to see Wei Ge, not to explain why he didn't kill Bai Wutong, but to warn her not to target Bai Wutong and the royal heir in the future.

Since Jin Zhi had made great contributions in protecting the Huguo Temple, Zhang Chengyan did not ask any further questions and directly let Wang Decai take the men in.

Wang Decai stopped in front of the door of Fuyao Palace.

Jin Zhi walked in quickly, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to Her Majesty the Concubine Jin."

Jin Weige stood up, dragged her plump body, and quickly came to him, "Brother, why haven't you done anything yet? Why is that bitch still able to come back alive?"

"Wei Ge, be careful with your words!" Jin Zhi looked towards the door.

Wang Decai was still far away and could see them but could not hear their conversation. All the palace people around him had already left.

Jin Weige had lost his patience. "Brother, tell me what's going on. You can't do it in the palace, but you can't do it outside the palace? Don't make excuses to me. I won't believe them. I know your ability. It's impossible that you can't do it!"

Jin Zhi looked at her quietly, "Wei Ge, Concubine Zhao is pregnant with the only heir to the throne. The emperor has been seeking for her for many years, but now she is finally here. As a subject, I cannot do such a treasonous thing. I can understand you vying for favor, but I cannot do it if you want to bring disaster to the country and the people!"

Jin Weige was so angry that she almost laughed. She grabbed Jin Zhi's collar, her eyes full of bloodshot. "Brother, don't say these useless things. Since the emperor can make Zhaopin pregnant, there will naturally be others. Didn't I have it before? It's just a matter of waiting for a while. Go and kill her!"

"Only by killing her can I relieve the hatred in my heart. Do you want me to watch her being free and easy in the palace every day? I have never suffered such injustice since I was a child. Even my title is gone. Because of her, I have lost face in this harem and the emperor!"

What she could not tolerate the most was that Bai Wutong took away the grace that belonged to her.

The emperor used to spend at least half of his time with her, but ever since he favored Bai Wutong, he has never come again.

She was even confined to her room, and now she hasn't seen the emperor for a long time.

Jin Zhi frowned slightly and opened her hand. "Wei Ge, don't make trouble. Don't mention this matter again. I won't help you. Don't think about taking risks with other people. Once exposed, not only you, but the entire Jin family may be in danger."

Jin Weige was filled with anger and had no place to vent it.

She had been waiting for so long.

She thought Bai Wutong was dead and the emperor would definitely favor her again.

But what they waited for was that the two of them came back in the same carriage.

The relationship is even better than before!

Jin Weige grabbed the porcelain beside her and smashed it to the ground, "The emperor is mine, he was originally mine!"

"You're my brother, and you didn't help me. You just watched that bitch ride on my head!"

She smashed things like crazy.

Wang Decai was shocked when he saw her crazy look, "What...what happened? Concubine Jin is so angry."

a long time.

The ground was full of debris.

Everything that could be seen around was smashed to pieces.

Jin Weige slumped weakly in the chair.

If even Jin Zhi won't help, she can only find a way out on her own.

But now Bai Wutong's place is heavily guarded and no one comes out.

The snow lotus seeds last time, such a powerful thing, couldn’t harm her. What else can she do!

Jin Weige couldn't wait even for a day, she just wanted to pull out the tendons and skin Bai Wutong immediately!

Jin Zhi remained calm, "Now that you've smashed enough, remember what I said, don't do anything to Concubine Zhao and the heir. If you act rashly, I will get the news and stop you."
