Jiang Qiao stood there, her lips slightly curled, but she lowered her eyes nonchalantly, looking at Jiang Ji calmly, as if he were a stranger.
"By the way, is the incense I gave to Father ok? I prepared it carefully for you, but I was too kind and used too little poison."
Jiang Ji suddenly shifted his gaze to the incense burner, where smoke curled up.
turn out to be……
So his recent headaches and long sleep were all caused by her.
Jiang Ji waited for someone to come in and take Jiang Qiao down, but he waited and waited, but no one came in.
Jiang Qiao seemed to see what he was thinking and sneered, "Father, don't wait any longer. No one will come in. It's already midnight."
Jiang Ji had once ordered that after midnight, no one was allowed to enter the Yangxin Palace unless summoned.
Jiang Qiao calculated the time and intercepted Lipin's maid.
Jiang Ji's face was filled with anger and humiliation. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but no sound came out and his face turned red.
He had thought about it thousands of times, but never thought it would end this way.
"Father." The woman's expression remained unchanged. She raised her bare hands and walked to the side to grind ink for him. "Write quickly. The crown prince's position belongs to Ayan. If you don't write, I can't guarantee that your beloved Jincheng will still be around tomorrow. He was so young. If he died, you, Father, would be heartbroken!"
Jiang Ji stared at her, then suddenly smiled. He picked up a pen and began to write, a tear falling as he wrote.
When Jiang Qiao saw that he had finished writing, he stuffed a pill into his mouth and said, "Father, don't think Changle is cruel. It's all your fault that things have come to this point."
This pill is the condensed essence of the tranquilizing incense here. It will make people faint and even die, similar to a vegetative state. Although fainted, they can hear sounds from the outside world.
She raised her chin slightly, her brows were calm, and Jiang Qiao's tone was so calm from beginning to end, without any loss of composure, and she didn't even frown.
"Jiang Ji, you deserve to pay with your life in this life!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Ji fainted.
Jiang Qiao looked at the unconscious Jiang Ji, still looking calm, but the tear in the corner of her eye betrayed her heart.
The original owner's childhood memories began to slowly echo in her mind.
"My Changle is really smart..."
"Father is also smart. Changle takes after him..."
"Why is Changle getting fat again..."
"Father is fat..."
Jiang Ji was very young at that time. She was the only daughter and had not yet been blinded by the imperial power.
But everything has passed. People's hearts are fickle and everything will deteriorate over time.
Jiang Qiao took the imperial edict and placed it in a sealed box behind the "Upright and Open" plaque in the hall, but he touched another box.
After opening it, there was another imperial decree, which indicated that the crown prince was Jiang Jincheng.
When Jiang Qiao passed by Jiang Ji with the box, there were many ambiguous emotions in his eyes.
"Father, Ayan will not let you down. He is as smart and clever as he was when he was little. He will do better than you."
After saying that, he left.
Jiang Ji's fingers moved slightly, and then there was no movement.
…
The palace was as cold as ever. Jiang Qiao felt that there was no humanity here and it had trapped many women for their entire lives.
A body search was required to leave the palace, so Jiang Qiao took the imperial edict to Changle Palace and burned it. She did not plan to stay in the palace tonight.
Because he had changed his appearance, Jiang Qiao was able to leave the palace smoothly with the house number he had obtained.
There was an empty carriage waiting for her not far outside the palace.
She prepared this in advance.
Everything went smoothly.
Until she was about to reach the princess's mansion.
Chi Qianan was waiting for her in front of her in a black robe, his eyes were cold, and if you looked closely, you could faintly see tears in them.
Jiang Qiao got off the carriage and tore off the mask on her face. The wind brought some moisture, lifting her long hair and burying mist between her hair. She twitched the corners of her mouth slightly, and there was a smile between her eyebrows, but her eyes were cold.
Chi Qi'an came over and hugged her tightly in his arms, "Where have you been?"
Jiang Qiao rubbed her face against his neck, tears streaming down her face, "How did you know I wasn't here?"
"You didn't take your medicine today. I was very worried about you and have been waiting for you to come back." Chi Qian'an didn't dare to speak loudly.
Jiang Qiao looked up at her, her eyes were watery. She was afraid in her heart. She had done many bad things in this world, and God would not forgive her.
"Chi Qi'an, I did a bad thing, but I had to do it. I was so scared."
Chi Qi'an wiped the tears from her face and said, "No matter what, I will face it with you."
He didn't know what she had done tonight, but judging from her current situation, it must not have been easy.
"Chi Qi'an, I'm so sleepy. I want to sleep."
"good."
"Why do you always say yes?"
"have no idea."
…
The next day, Jiang Qiao failed to wake up.
A big event also happened in the palace. Jiang Ji was murdered and lost consciousness. The palace was in chaos and only the empress dowager could control the situation.
The imperial physician was at a loss as to what to do with Jiang Ji's illness, and Gu Yun was also called into the palace.
Chi Qianan finally understood what Jiang Qiao had done last night. He sat beside the woman's bed and held her hand tightly.
He could guess how helpless she was at the time to choose this method.
Jiang Qiao's behavior may seem cruel and ruthless to others, but others have not experienced what she has experienced. Her biological mother died in front of her, and she and her brother were murdered. No one can expect her to be kind.
…
Since something like this happened in Anhuai Country, it is not convenient for people from Ningyuan Country to stay any longer.
Rong Sui came to see Jiang Qiao. The woman on the bed looked pale, but still looked calm.
"Jiang Qiao, I'm leaving. I've made a choice. I want power. I lived that kind of life before, being bullied. I've seen your happiest moments, and heard your past from others, true and false. I don't believe it. I hope you can wake up soon."
When he left, Chi Qian was waiting for him at the door.
Rong Sui glanced at him calmly and said, "General Chi, if you have the chance in the future, you are welcome to bring her to Ningyuan Country."
"Yes."
…
The day after Rong Sui left, Jiang Qiao woke up.
Gu Yun said that she fell into a coma because she took medicine she shouldn't have.
Jiang Qiao brought Jiang Yanchuan into the palace.
Jiang Yanchuan didn't know how to face her. He knew better than anyone that she was the one who did this to Jiang Ji.
Jiang Qiao put on makeup today to hide her sick look. "A Yan, I hope you will be a good emperor in the future."
Jiang Yanchuan didn't say anything, just looked at her.
Jiang Qiao smiled and said nothing more.
When they arrived at the palace, Li Dequan respectfully welcomed the brother and sister. Civil and military officials were already waiting for them, and Chi Qi'an was also watching her from below.
Li Dequan took out the imperial edict and said, "By the will of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: My eldest son, Jiang Yanchuan, has been intelligent since childhood and blessed by Heaven. I now pass the throne to him. I hope he will be a wise ruler who loves the people. I decree this."
Jiang Yanchuan knelt down to receive the order, his eyes full of clarity.
The civil and military officials were in a mess and were talking about the situation.
Most people said that the eldest prince was stupid and how could he be the crown prince.
"Anyone have any objections? Stand up! Anyone want to disobey my order?"
