Chapter 480 Nothing to say
Concubine Kangde ignored her.
"It's reasonable. The emperor has compensated me with many things. He also compensated me with a virtuous concubine. In this way, because of the pain of losing a son, I will always be at odds with Feng. Did I do a good job?"
Qi Yixiu smiled: "My beloved concubine has done a great job."
"I...also feel that I have done a good job. Especially good." Concubine Kangde smiled.
"Look at how much I have planned over the years. In addition to what you know, I have done much more. For example, I killed that old hag, Empress Dowager Feng."
Everyone was shocked. Concubine Qian Shu stood up and asked, "What did you say?"
"I said, your aunt, your backer, was actually me who was involved and asked Concubine Jin to take action." Concubine Kangde smiled and said, "In fact, I did a good job in this matter. What do you think, Your Majesty?"
Qi Yixiu didn't say anything, just looked at her deeply.
"I never wanted to admit defeat. I went from being an ordinary minor official to entering the palace, then to the imperial palace, and now standing at the rank of the fourth concubine of the first rank. I have paid a lot. So, even if I lose my own child, I still want to support the third prince."
"I don't favor her, but I can wait to become an empress dowager in the future. But the emperor spared Miao Meiren's life in order to restrain me." Concubine Kangde shook her head.
"I am not close to the Third Prince, and the Third Prince is not close to me either. And with my family background, how could I possibly support a prince to be the Crown Prince? You see, I actually know everything, but I just don't want to accept it."
"After I heard Wu Qicai's confession, I even felt relieved. It's finally here."
"It's just that Your Majesty, you don't feel any guilt for Li'er's death? The enemy who killed him is alive and well, and you ignored his death for so many reasons. Do you really feel no guilt at all? Or, will your guilt be washed away after giving me a Concubine Kangde?"
"Li'er died of a cold." Qi Yixiu said calmly, "Liu, you don't understand me."
Qi Yixiu looked at her and said, "If you had only done something for Li'er's sake these years, you wouldn't have ended up like this."
"Look at them. Look at Concubine Jing. When her child fell into the lake and almost died, what did she do? Hmm? Do I really blame her? If something bad had really happened to the Sixth Prince at that time, and she had strangled Feng to death with her own hands, I would have spared her life. It's just because she wanted revenge for revenge, without so many sinister calculations. And what about you? You couldn't even avenge your son. You can't even let down the child you care about, what else can you say?"
Shen Chuliu was suddenly called out, and was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, "Emperor, you are sick. You can't curse my child, you dog emperor!"
Concubine Kangde wanted to say no, and wanted to say that it was because of my poor family background that I didn't dare to act recklessly, but in the end I didn't say it.
"Your own child died, and you have been thinking about it for so many years, but you still want to harm other people's children." Concubine Shun said softly.
No one paid any attention to her.
Qi Yixiu looked at Concubine Kang De: "I came here today to ask you if you regret it. It seems that you don't regret it either."
"It's no use regretting now. How does Your Majesty want to deal with me?" Concubine Kangde smiled and sat down on the chair.
"What do you think? I give you a choice, to live in Beigong Garden for retirement, or to end it all? For the sake of reason, I will not pursue the matter with your mother's family." Qi Yixiu said.
"Then I want to live. I want to see what it will be like in the end." Concubine Kangde said.
"Okay, then I will give you a way to survive. But you can never come out again. Are you willing?" Qi Yixiu stood up and looked at her.
"I am willing. Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Issue an order to immediately abolish Liu's position and imprison her forever in Lengcui Pavilion, Beigong Garden. Without my order, she is not allowed to come out forever. The Third Prince was not born to Liu, so he does not need to acknowledge her as his mother in the future. He is also not allowed to see Liu again."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Liu knelt down.
Then she kowtowed and stood up: "I have no complaints about the arrangements made by the emperor. I just have a question for the emperor."
"You say." Qi Yixiu had stopped smiling a long time ago. He just looked at Liu indifferently.
"I have followed Your Majesty for more than ten years, since I was fifteen years old. Until now, I have always wanted to ask Your Majesty, does Your Majesty remember my name?" Liu looked up at the emperor.
Qi Yixiu didn't say anything.
Liu smiled and said, "I will take my leave now. May you always be with me, Your Majesty, and take care of yourself."
She walked a few steps out, came to Wen Chongrong, and smiled: "You harmed Meng, causing her miscarriage, and she almost lost her life at that time. Later, Meng killed your child in revenge. Now looking at the foolish Eighth Prince, do you regret it?"
Wen Chongrong's face changed drastically: "What nonsense are you talking about! How have I ever harmed her? You... it's you! I was wondering why she suddenly went crazy, it was you! Did you instigate her?"
Liu just smiled and said, "I wonder if Meng's revenge can be considered as the utmost love and affection."
Having said that, she never looked back and followed the eunuch at the door.
In the main hall of Leshou Palace, everyone was looking at her back.
The stairs were high, so she walked down step by step and out of everyone's sight.
Concubine Kangde was no longer in the palace, and there was a useless person named Liu in the North Palace.
"Your Majesty, I am innocent. Liu must be resentful of me for telling Wu Qicai that she knew pharmacology." Wen Chongrong knelt down and said.
Qi Yixiu ignored her and just waved his hand: "Go away."
Everyone is bowing, making the person kneeling on the ground look so humble.
The queen followed the emperor's footsteps closely without even giving Wen Chongrong a glance.
Everyone looked at her subtly when they passed by her.
Right and wrong, although there is no evidence, what do you think?
If what Liu said was true, then Wen Chongrong was really shooting herself in the foot.
She ruined her good son.
In the Imperial Garden, it was a beautiful time with lush grass and singing birds. Su Xiuyi sat down to admire the flowers and asked someone to serve tea.
When Concubine Qian Shu arrived, she stood up and saluted: "Your Majesty is here to appreciate the flowers, too."
Concubine Qian Shu nodded and sat down in front of her: "Your idea is great!"
Su Xiuyi smiled and said, "What did the queen say?"
"There are no outsiders here." Concubine Qian Shu frowned: "She can't dig up so many old things!"
"Your Highness." Su Xiuyi sighed, "Opened wounds heal quickly. Why did the Emperor allow you to be a concubine all these years? Does the Emperor really not know how the eldest prince died? The Feng family is still like this, and the Emperor will not do anything to you anymore. You just need to be careful with your words and actions in the future."
Concubine Qian Shu frowned, but had nothing to say.
"Let me ask you again, why exactly do you want to cooperate with me?" Concubine Qian Shu asked uncertainly.
"For a way to survive. I can't have another child, and there must be a way for us, mother and daughter, to survive." Su Xiuyi poured her tea.
Concubine Qian Shu still looked at her in confusion.
It’s New Year’s Eve. I wish everyone a happy new year.
