"She used to brag to me how much His Majesty doted on her."
That night.
There was a commotion in the harem, and the news that Concubine Wei was stabbed and seriously injured alarmed Emperor Jinde and the Empress.
Emperor Jinde said calmly, "I'm afraid Concubine Li has gone insane."
The queen sighed.
Finally, this day has come. It seems that Concubine Li has discovered who the real murderer of her son is.
