Ci'en Temple.
"Damn Jiang Qingyao, damn Queen, just wait for me. When I return to the harem, I will definitely teach you a lesson."
Concubine Qiao's eyes were filled with hatred and anger, and she raised her hand and knocked over the incense burner.
"Clang."
These days she has been copying scriptures by hand, eating vegetarian food and worshiping Buddha every day. She is so bored and depressed that she is almost on the verge of collapse.
"I can't bear it. Where have I ever suffered such hardship?"
Concubine Qiao had to admire Concubine Li. When she was demoted to a concubine, she fasted and worshipped Buddha every day, as if she was extremely pious and much more tolerant than her.
Concubine Li is a cruel one.
"No, I can't just sit there and wait for death. If I continue like this, His Majesty will sooner or later forget me. Where will there be a place for me in the harem?"
She wanted to get out! She had to find a way to leave Ci'en Temple and return to the palace.
"Hmm?" Concubine Qiao raised her sleeve and sniffed. "Why does the smell of this incense burner today differ from yesterday?"
She was covered with a rich fragrance.
Just as he was thinking about it, the voice of the young monk suddenly came from outside the room: "Donor Qiao, it's time to eat."
Concubine Qiao left in a hurry.
When she returned to her room after dinner, she saw a piece of paper on the table in front of the window.
"Let's talk in the back mountains and help the queen return to the palace."
Concubine Qiao was stunned. "Who left this?"
"Could it be Cheng'er's handiwork? He truly is my good son."
Concubine Qiao was overjoyed. She burned the note cautiously, avoided the eyes and ears of the temple, and quietly went to the back mountain.
However, when she arrived at the back mountain, Concubine Qiao did not see anyone and the surroundings were quiet.
Hasn't that person come yet?
Princess Qiao waited for a while, and a sense of unease arose in her heart.
"Could it be a trick?"
She turned around and was about to go back to the room when she heard a loud eagle cry.
The giant eagle swooped down, its huge claws spread out as it pounced accurately at Concubine Qiao.
"ah!"
The next moment, Concubine Qiao rolled down the cliff.
The giant eagle cried out, with a piece of cloth still hooked in its talons, and it spread its wings and soared into another forest.
"Sir, it's done." Xi Feng saw the bloody eagle's beak and the cloth on its claws.
He was quite afraid of the eagle. It only listened to adults and was afraid of adults.
He Zheng clenched his fist, supported the eagle with his arm, and said coldly: "I will not kill Prince An because of your majesty. Qiao Ruyin must die."
Qiao Ruyin is the name of Concubine Qiao.
Xi Feng nodded, "Princess Qiao has been repeatedly targeting Madam, so we really can't keep her here."
If you think about it carefully, Prince An is also a disaster and should not be kept. But Xi Feng did not say this out loud.
Now we should keep Prince An alive to avoid the accidental death of Concubine Qiao and Prince An. His Majesty will suspect you, sir.
Xi Feng: "Concubine Qiao is dead, His Majesty..."
He Zheng looked indifferent: "The Qiao family is no longer useful."
Xi Feng came to his senses instantly. Yes, this time when the Lord went to Xuanhua City to investigate the case of illegal salt trafficking and salt tax, the Qiao family was almost wiped out.
It's really a serious injury.
Now that the Qiao family has fallen, Concubine Qiao is no longer of any value to His Majesty, so he will not care about her life or death.
This case not only involved the Qiao family, but also the queen's brother, the uncle of the king, was involved, which hit the queen's maternal family, and the Wei family was also affected.
Concubine Wei's two uncles were imprisoned, and the vacant positions were all filled by new officials in the court promoted by He Zheng. A group of people in the court were quietly replaced.
Precisely because the scope of the attack was so large and several foreign relatives were involved, the matter could only be handed over to the Marquis of Anguo for investigation.
The entire court, civil and military officials, were discussing the matter.
Those who have nothing to hide are more dedicated and responsible, while those who have something to hide are terrified, fearing that they will be found out one day.
"Isn't the Marquis of Anguo a member of the Crown Prince's faction? Would he target the Crown Prince's uncle?"
"The crime committed by the uncle of the emperor is not a major one that will harm the entire clan. He should be punished. I guess it is also His Majesty's intention to teach the Situ family a lesson."
"The Marquis of Anguo's action is selfless."
"The Qiao family is finished, and the Wei family has also suffered a lot this time, becoming like an eagle with half its feathers plucked."
If someone else did this, they would be hated and afraid of revenge, and would be unable to sleep at night.
However, Marquis Anguo remained cruel.
The sharpness is fully displayed, like an extremely sharp knife that will never break.
Prince An's Mansion.
"Mother, mother is... dead?" Prince An broke down and cried.
He also wanted to ask his mother to ask his father to give him more fiefdoms on his behalf. He would go to the fiefdom and leave Shangjing City to avoid the limelight temporarily and then plan his great cause.
He didn't want to be an idle prince, he wanted supreme power.
Unfortunately, he fell ill and could no longer ascend the throne legitimately. If he wanted to ascend the throne, there was only one way - rebellion!
"The Qiao family is overthrown, and my mother is dead... You, why are you so useless?!"
"Even God doesn't help me."
Prince An spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted from anger.
Here, Jiang Qingyao was sitting in the courtyard and was shocked to hear the news of Concubine Qiao's accidental death.
Hurry, Concubine Qiao died too suddenly.
What's more, he slipped and fell off a cliff in the back mountain of Ci'en Temple, and his body was found at the bottom of the cliff.
There were no witnesses and no traces left.
It looked exactly like he had really fallen off a cliff, but Jiang Qingyao felt something was strange in her heart.
The maids had no doubts and were only happy, especially Zhitao, who had a smile on her lips and looked as if a huge stone had been lifted from her heart.
Zhi Tao: "That's great. This way, we don't have to worry about Concubine Qiao causing trouble for Madam again."
Chu Lu: "Qiao Fei must have done too many bad things, and the Buddha couldn't stand her so he took her in to prevent her from harming others again."
Zhi Tao retorted: "If anyone wants to take her in, it should be Yama."
Ning interrupted, "Madam asked me to find out the news outside. Not only did Concubine Qiao die unexpectedly, but something happened to the Qiao family as well."
