On the eve of the marriage, there was not much joy in the imperial palace. Although the palace was decorated with lights and colorful lanterns to show the solemnity, there was a feeling of depression everywhere.

Inside Cuiyun Palace, the melodious sound of the piano is not suppressed at all, but like the wonderful music from fairyland, peaceful and pleasant.

Ningshuang, at this moment, was accompanying Qingqing by the side, watching in confusion as the second princess played song after song.

"Qingqing, what time is it now?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting plucked the strings of his zither and asked without raising his head.

"Princess, it's already the evening hour." Qingqing said with her head down.

"Really?" Zongzheng Xiaoting smiled, "Ningshuang, are you sure that Concubine Zhenxian has heard the news?"

Ning Shuang, who was standing by, came back to her senses after being asked by Zong Zheng Xiao Ting. "Yes, I have already sent someone to tell Concubine Xian what she had asked for."

Zong Zheng Xiaoting nodded, plucked the strings of the zither with his fingertips, and then changed the tune. The soft and melodious music suddenly reversed, seeming high-pitched and tense, which sounded very tense to the ears.

At this moment, news came from outside the palace that Concubine Zhenxian was coming to visit.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting didn't say anything, just nodded to Ningshuang and the others, and continued to concentrate on plucking the strings of the zither with his head down.

Led by Qingqing, Concubine Zhenxian walked step by step towards the side hall where Zongzheng Xiaoting was. She only heard the melodious sound of the piano, but it contained murderous intentions. The murderous aura of the music was not concealed at all, and her heart suddenly tightened.

In the past few days, the resentment in my heart has been growing wantonly, but for the sake of my family, I have to suppress it in my heart. However, the rumors in the past few days have gradually suppressed my anger, and replaced it with palpitations and fear day and night.

With doubtful steps, he had just stepped into the inner hall when Zong Zheng Xiaoting's voice came out: "The Concubine Xian should be busy with the third princess's wedding today. How could she have the leisure to come and visit Xiaoting?"

"What you want, Second Princess, isn't it just my visit?" Concubine Zhenxian looked annoyed, no longer as gentle as she was in front of others.

"Your Highness Concubine Xian is really very thoughtful. Xiaoting just wanted someone to pass on a few words, yet you, Your Highness Concubine Xian, came in person. I am really flattered." Zongzheng Xiaoting pressed the strings of the zither, raised his eyes with a smile, looked at the Concubine Zhenxian, and slowly stood up with the help of Qingqing.

only..

Zong Zheng Xiaoting looked at Concubine Zhen with disdain. Although he stood up, he walked to the couch beside him without any courtesy and raised his chin slightly, "Please take a seat, Concubine Xian."

"You!" Although Concubine Zhenxian understood that the situation had already been torn apart when she came here tonight, she never thought that the usually timid Second Princess would be so arrogant after taking off the mask.

"Why? Do you think that Xiao Ting is underestimated, or do you think that Xiao Ting is rebellious?" Zongzheng Xiaoting picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, leaned back on the chair, and looked at Concubine Zhenxian provocatively, "Concubine Xian doesn't need to be so angry. This person respects me one foot, and I return him ten feet. You think it's unfair, but Xiaoting thinks it's fair."

"Fair?" Concubine Zhenxian snorted coldly and glared at Zongzheng Xiaoting. The teacup in her hand was also slammed heavily on the table.

"You have been poisoned by Concubine Lixian a long time ago. You don't have much time left. Even if the Empress and the Imperial Concubine are reluctant to let you marry, what does it matter? If you marry to Yunguang Kingdom and die, it will only make the Emperor more distressed, and the status of the Empress and the Imperial Concubine will become more solid. Why do you still want to harm us mother and daughter?" Concubine Zhenxian gritted her teeth and clenched her fists.

"Innocent people are harmed, and those who are not innocent should be punished in the end." Zong Zheng Xiaoting laughed even more happily, and raised his eyebrows, "Does the Concubine Xian really think that you and Zong Zheng Yunchun are so innocent? If you are innocent, do you still need to be afraid of the rumors that I deliberately spread with evidence of your guilt?"

"Today, I came here to clear up the misunderstanding." Concubine Zhen lied with her eyes open and growled.

"Misunderstanding? Zong Zheng Xiaoting is not the same Zong Zheng Xiaoting as before. Let others hear Concubine Xian's lies." Zong Zheng Xiaoting turned his head away. "I don't care about Concubine Xian, and I don't care about any agreement or alliance you had with my mother before. But, from the moment you accused Concubine Li Xian, I already had my suspicions. As for the drugging, I suddenly wondered if you and Concubine Fu knew about it a long time ago and deliberately kept silent."

Zong Zheng Xiaoting's words made Concubine Zhenxian's face turn much paler.

Seeing the guilty look on Concubine Zhenxian's face, Zong Zheng Xiaoting knew that his guess was right. With a mocking smile, Zong Zheng Xiaoting suddenly grabbed Concubine Zhenxian's wrist and said, "Of course, I was just suspicious at first, until the Third Princess, the innocent and beautiful Zong Zheng Yunchun, couldn't wait to harm me at the palace banquet, and then I realized it."

"Second Princess, who told you these nonsense?" The force on her wrist, coupled with Zong Zheng Xiaoting's words, frightened Concubine Zhenxian so much that even her voice trembled.

Could it be that the Second Princess really already has evidence? If so, the consequences for me would be dire.

"Nonsense?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting lifted Concubine Zhenxian's hand. "If I had no evidence, do you think I would be so confident before getting married? Do you think Yun Chun cares about her mother's family, but I don't? Humph, I'm sure you know why I'm so confident, otherwise, what are you afraid of? Hmm?"

Zongzheng Xiaoting stood up and threw Concubine Zhenxian's hand aside. "Concubine Xian has a far-sighted vision. She is eyeing the position of my mother and my mother so covetously. From tomorrow, Xiaoting will not be able to enjoy the pleasure of being by my side. If you don't let Concubine Xian taste this pain carefully, how can you swallow it? Naturally, my mother lost me, and you lost the third princess. I think it is fair. At least, my mother has lost someone to rely on, and you have the same. This is not a loss."

Zongzheng Xiaoting paused, "That's not right. In the final analysis, Xiaoting still won. If Concubine Xian hadn't known about it but kept silent about it, Xiaoting wouldn't have been helpless. Then, my father wouldn't have been so upset about Xiaoting's marriage and felt guilty for the rest of his life. Concubine Xian, firstly, you are not my father's favorite. Secondly, the Third Princess is healthy, so I'm afraid she won't be able to protect you much after she leaves. Don't you think so?"

Zong Zheng Xiaoting's arrogance made Concubine Zhenxian suspicious. She threw aside her status and knelt down quickly, "Second Princess, this is all my fault. Since you deliberately asked me to come here, you must have wanted to let me go. What do you want me to do?"

Zong Zheng Xiaoting saw Concubine Zhenxian's fear. Ningshuang was also standing by, clenching her fists tightly and shaking uncontrollably.
