Chapter 85 The Origin of Qiong Hua

Concubine Lan then approached Concubine Chen Gui and said, "It's really as you said. The second young lady of the Shen family has changed her personality. I think she is a cheerful person."

"Sister is right. I like this child too." Concubine Chen Guifei couldn't help but think of what Lu Xingwan had said about Shen Baoshuang's ending, and she felt even more emotional.

At this time, something unexpected happened in the palace.

After Xiangyun was taken away by Shupin, she felt uneasy because she knew about Shupin's past relationship with Yun Guiren, who was the culprit who killed her master.

But she didn't expect Shupin to send someone to call her to the inner room, and her tone was very gentle: "You suffered a lot when you followed the noble lady in the past."

Xiangyun was even more worried when she saw Shupin like this: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am fine."

"I want to ask you, is it true that Concubine Fang killed Concubine De?" Although Shupin's tone was gentle, it was full of doubt. Xiangyun was so scared that she knelt down on the spot. She knew that Shupin wanted her here not just because she was short of a palace maid.

"Your servant...your servant..." Xiangyun was so scared that she couldn't speak for a moment.

Shupin stood up and helped Xiangyun up, even letting her sit on a stool.

The moment Xiangyun touched Shupin's cold fingers, she came to her senses instantly and remembered what Concubine Chen had told her: if she wanted to save her life, she must not tell anyone else about what happened that day.

She shook her head and said, "I didn't know that, but the noble lady did go into Concubine De's room alone. When Bai Zhi and Bai Wei beside Concubine De found out, it was already... already..."

When Concubine Shu heard her say this, her tone immediately turned cold: "Isn't there anything different about Ms. Fang these days?"

Xiangyun still shook her head: "Since entering the cold palace, Lady Fang has often been alone in there. When Concubine De came, she would not let me serve her closely. I really didn't know."

When Shupin heard Xiangyun's words, she suddenly became angry and slammed the table, but did not say anything.

Xiangyun knelt down and kowtowed: "It's all my fault, please take care of yourself, Madam."

"Forget it, you go down first!" Seeing that she was so useless, Shupin believed her a little more.

After Xiangyun hurriedly left the inner room, Yuxiu, Shupin's close servant, hurried in and asked, "What did the queen ask?"

As he said this, he handed a cup of tea to Shupin.

Shupin picked up the tea and took a sip. It was just the right temperature. She had to admit that she really enjoyed using it. "Useless stuff. You don't know anything when asked."

"I guess she really has nothing to do with this matter."

The maid stepped forward, gently massaged Shupin's shoulders, and said softly, "It's irrelevant, but I always feel that she seems to be on Concubine Chen's side."

Hearing this, Concubine Shu couldn't help but look up at the palace maid and said, "Concubine Chen Gui still has such a brain?"

Everyone in the palace has always known that Concubine Chen has been indifferent since she entered the palace. She didn't care about anything, even when Concubine De harmed her several times in the past, she didn't pursue it. How could she bribe a palace maid for a little noble? This is indeed not something she would do.

"Your Majesty, you might as well give it a try." The palace maid named Yuxiu showed a triumphant smile behind Concubine Shu.

In Qingyun Palace, Meiying and Lanying are now busy investigating things for Concubine Chen Guifei. Zhuying and Juying naturally followed the Empress to the poetry meeting today to protect her secretly.

Needless to say, Jinxin and Jinyu are definitely following the Empress.

Now the courtyard was deserted, and Qiong Hua finally had some free time to stroll around the huge Qingyun Palace.

This time, Lu Xingwan was indeed right in her guess. This Qionghua was exactly that Qionghua, the sister Qionghua who had taken care of Lu Xingwan a lot when she was in the world of immortal cultivation.

Lu Xingwan was assassinated when she ascended to heaven this time. Her master was very worried about her, but he was in the world of immortal cultivation and could not leave. So Qiong Hua stepped forward and said that he would take this opportunity to do this for Lu Xingwan's master.

Although Lu Xingwan's location had been predicted in the fairy world, he still went to the wrong place when he went to the lower world and ended up in the border area of ​​the Great Chu State.

It was obvious that the location he predicted should be the capital of the Great Chu State.

Moreover, he had lost all his spiritual power. It was really... extremely unlucky.

Now he had found the wrong place again, lost his spiritual power, and was almost deceived and sold by those unruly people.

Fortunately, the guards around Marquis Dingguo saved me and I was able to escape this disaster.

This world is such a dangerous place. I, an adult, can suffer like this. I feel so sorry for Wanwan. I wonder where she is suffering from torture now.

Fortunately, he had been diligent in the past and had learned some medical skills from his master. Even though he had lost his spiritual power, he still had a skill. In order to repay his gratitude, he became a military doctor in Marquis Dingguo's army.

He happened to hear that the daughter of Marquis Dingguo, who was far away in the capital, needed a female doctor to serve her, so he immediately volunteered, saying that he was willing to serve the Marquis like a dog and a horse in order to repay the Marquis for saving his life.

Her purpose was naturally to go to Beijing.

But I didn't expect that now that I have arrived in Beijing, I am confined in this square courtyard. How can I find Wanwan now?

While she was thinking about it, she saw a little palace maid sneaking into Qingyun Palace.

Qiong Hua's heart was immediately filled with alarm. She had already seen the wickedness of people in this world. Since she had already surrendered to Concubine Chen Gui, and her father was her savior, she naturally had to protect Concubine Chen Gui.

He held his breath and quietly followed the palace maid's footsteps.

Although it is useless, now that she has no spiritual power, what is the point of absorbing the breath?

But it doesn't matter, the palace maid doesn't know any martial arts, so it won't hinder Qiong Hua's feelings.

The maid was seen sneaking around and trying to enter Concubine Chen's inner chamber. Qiong Hua knew the seriousness of the matter and hurried over to stop her: "Who is it?"

And that little palace maid was Xiangyun.

Shupin finally decided to follow Yuxiu's advice and give it a try to see if Xiangyun was really connected with Concubine Chen, so she took out a box of poison that Yuxiu had prepared in advance.

"Xiangyun, you have been in the palace for a long time, so you must know that I have always been at odds with Concubine Chen."

When Shupin said this, she looked up at Xiangyun, but she saw that Xiangyun did not show any strange expression. She continued, "I have a box of poison here. You just need to put it in the inner room of Concubine Chen Guifei. If you can do this, I will not doubt you anymore."

Xiangyun kowtowed while trembling: "My lady, I dare not do that. What if we are discovered..."

"Don't worry," Shupin comforted her, "This thing can't be tested to be any poison, it will only kill people without leaving any trace."

"Really?" Xiangyun looked at Shupin with shining eyes.

"Of course." Seeing Xiangyun like this, Shupin was very satisfied.
