"Yes, it was I who ordered it, but it's a pity that I failed."
Seeing her admit it, a cold light flashed in Mo Qiyuan's eyes.
"The Chu sisters set the fire, the palace maid locked the door, so who set the smoke screen?"
Addicted to smoke?
Upon hearing this, Empress Xian was confused. Her plan did not include anyone setting off the smoke screen, so why did the Emperor ask this?
Then she glanced at Chu Mingrou calmly and found that a trace of discomfort flashed across her face after hearing this.
Empress Xian immediately thought of what her subordinates had said before, that before she took action against the two eunuchs guarding the cold palace, someone had already killed them.
In this case, there must be someone secretly helping them outside of their plan. However, judging from Chu Mingrou's appearance, someone did help them release the smoke, but she did not tell the emperor the truth.
If that's the case, then it's even more impossible for her to say it out loud.
Now that the matter has been exposed, she and Chu Mingrou will definitely not escape death, but the person who acted in secret can help them, which means that she also wants to attack Ye Jinyun.
In this case, why doesn't she leave Ye Jinyun with someone who wants to kill her at any time?
She couldn't survive, but she would never let Ye Jinyun go.
After figuring this out, Empress Xian raised her head and let out a shrill laugh.
"Of course, he's one of mine. Not only that, the eunuch guarding the cold palace was also poisoned by my people. It's just a pity that even with such a thorough plan, I couldn't kill Ye Jinyun. This bitch is still alive. It's really... uh... uh."
Suddenly, Concubine Xian's voice stopped abruptly. She covered her neck with her hands, and blood was constantly seeping out from between her fingers.
Mo Qiyuan's face was sinister, and warm blood kept dripping from the tip of the sword in his hand.
Hearing her sarcastic and foul words, he could no longer contain his hatred and killed Concubine Xian.
Seeing this sudden scene, Ye Jinyun couldn't help but exclaimed.
This is so terrible. This is why she didn't want to enter the palace in the first place. If she angered the emperor, her life would be in danger at any time.
