He Xingyi had his beloved wife on one side.
On one hand, there is the emperor's boundless grace.
He Xingyi was caught in the middle, unable to find a worthy opponent.
On the night the Xia king was subdued.
The princess of Xia Kingdom abandoned her two children and committed suicide in front of He Xingyi.
In the imperial court, he was no longer given important positions, and his colleagues avoided him like the plague.
He Xingyi gradually went mad, drinking himself into a stupor every day. One rainy night, while walking alone to his wife's tomb, he slipped and fell down the mountain, tragically dying.
After he died.
His two children were abused to death by his household servants.
In short, the outcome was dismal.
Because she entered the book, she changed the fate of many people.
Lu Zhaolin became the top scholar.
Unexpectedly, the people who came to arrange the marriage were from Ningguo.
Mu Qianqian didn't know whether everything had truly changed completely or hadn't been entirely reversed.
She was really worried.
If Wei Ziyi insists on marrying the sixth princess to Lu Zhaolin...
Emperor Yuanwu would not start a war over such a trivial matter.
Even if a fight really breaks out.
So the first one to be sent to the front lines would have to be Lu Zhaofeng.
Whether it's Lu Zhaofeng or Lu Zhaolin, they are now her family.
She didn't want anything to happen to any of the generals.
Mu Qianqian secretly made up her mind.
She must find a way to resolve this.
At that very moment.
Emperor Yuanwu suddenly remembered something and turned to Consort Shu, saying, "By the way, the Empress Dowager's birthday is coming up in a few days. The Empress is still ill, so you should take care of this matter."
"Yes, Your Majesty," Consort Shu said softly.
Emperor Yuanwu was also busy with official duties.
Consort Shu stayed in the Imperial Study with Mu Qianqian for a while before leaving.
On the way back.
Mu Qianqian was a little sleepy. She leaned on Consort Shu's shoulder, and was about to fall asleep.
Suddenly remembering something, he abruptly opened his eyes.
[The Empress Dowager's birthday banquet.]
She remembered that in the original novel, it wasn't Consort Shu who organized the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet.
[It was Consort Hui.]
For events like the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, the imperial concubines would fight tooth and nail to get to the front.
If we can win the Empress Dowager's favor, the rewards will be minor; we might even get a promotion.
[In the original book.]
The person who organized this Empress Dowager's birthday banquet was Consort Hui.
She naturally did her best, and Consort Liang and the others were also busy offering suggestions and ideas.
The birthday banquet was meticulously planned, elegant, and grand.
Emperor Yuanwu was overjoyed, and Consort Hui was directly promoted to Imperial Concubine Hui.
[The imperial edict for promotion hasn't even been finished yet.]
Firecrackers suddenly ignited a tablecloth at the edge of the banquet hall.
In order to better enjoy the firecrackers and performances.
The banquet hall for the birthday celebration was located in the Imperial Garden.
[Sometime during this time, flammable oil had been poured under the table in the Imperial Garden.]
The flames spread rapidly along the oil-covered ground.
Screams erupted, and the entire Imperial Garden descended into chaos.
[They had been lying in ambush in the bamboo grove of the Imperial Garden, taking advantage of the chaos to descend.]
If it weren't for the guards' quick reaction...
That sharp dagger plunged directly into the Empress Dowager's heart.
Even though the guards reacted quickly, the dagger still pierced the Empress Dowager's right shoulder.
[In addition, he was severely frightened and seriously injured.]
The Empress Dowager fell seriously ill and never recovered.
Consort Hui not only did not receive any promotion, but was also demoted to a lower rank and banished to the Cold Palace. Her family members were also implicated as a result.
Thinking about this...
