Chapter 217 Is she a devil?

Defei certainly didn't expect that Ning Feixiu had a premonition that she would be killed to silence her, so after being fed poison and sent to Yikun Palace, she secretly wrote this blood letter. Before

Lu Yin brought the emperor here, the queen had already received the blood letter. She

didn't give it to the emperor because the queen no longer trusted the emperor and she felt that the emperor would protect Defei.

The dead princes are ultimately inferior to the living.

The third prince suddenly lost his voice due to a disaster, and the imperial physician said that because the third prince already had some weak symptoms before, this poisoning made his body even worse, and he would be very weak in the future.

The emperor's heartache for the third prince was at its peak. If the evidence was given to the emperor at this time, the queen's two sons would never be able to get justice.

Seeing that Jiang Xinyue was hesitant to express her opinion, the queen took out her trump card: "As long as you promise to help me get revenge, after I die, my family will advise the emperor to let you become the new queen, and our entire Zhu family will be at your disposal."

That's not necessary, the Zhu family won't last long.

"Heh!"

The Concubine Xian, who was worried just now, withdrew her hand and placed the queen's soft body on the small table on the couch, with a slightly cold expression: "Zhu family? Queen, are you talking about the Zhu family that asked people to sprinkle white phosphorus powder on the clothes of the Sixth Prince's wet nurse? Or the Zhu family that sent the internal guards to kill Xie Zhangyi to silence him?" The

queen's eyes, which were full of bloodshot, went from dull to shocked. The huge impact made her eyes black and she spit out blood again.

Jiang Xinyue, however, had no sympathy at all. She raised her eyebrows and looked at her: "Oh! By the way, I actually forgot that the Zhu family who wanted to kill my child is the Empress's maternal family! If it weren't for the Zhu family, how could the Empress admit the crime so readily? Then I would like to ask, two years ago, after I was sent to the cold palace, I almost died from arsenic snacks. Did the Empress also let the Zhu family send arsenic into the palace?"

"You...you..."

The Empress wanted to grab her, but Jiang Xinyue shook her hand away and took a step back: "Empress, the people who harmed me and my child, look, are they still there?"

Yes...

those who harmed her and harbored evil intentions towards her, except for Concubine De, Concubine Yu and the Empress, have all disappeared in the ups and downs of the harem.

As for the remaining three, Concubine Yu was demoted to the list of the four concubines, Concubine De's son was deposed, and she, the empress, was in name only and was about to die. Was

this...

all part of Jiang Xinyue's plan?

A chill rushed from the soles of her feet to her crown. The empress pointed at Jiang Xinyue with a trembling finger: "You... when did you know?"

"The moment I saw Jiang Yuan carrying snacks into the cold palace, I guessed that the empress wanted to use her to make me mistakenly believe that Concubine Li sent her to poison me. But I also knew that the empress did this to make me stand up and fight against Concubine Li, so she would not really take my life. So I took advantage of the situation and won the emperor's mercy and... your guilt."

However, Jiang Xinyue could not agree with this behavior of pretending to be merciful and building a good person archway for herself after doing what she did.

"Your Majesty, you didn't lose to Concubine De, you lost to your own vanity and greed. You want the Emperor's love, supreme power, and all the concubines in the harem to obey you. You wish your reputation as a virtuous queen would spread throughout the court and the country. Your Majesty... you are not a god, you are just a mortal. Why do you want to do things that humans cannot do?"

"If Your Majesty wants to be a villain, you have to be more thoroughly evil. If I were Your Majesty, you should have poisoned me to death in the cold palace instead of keeping me to deal with Li Guiji. Even without me, the Emperor would not tolerate the Song family. Why did Your Majesty dirty your hands and kill Li Guiji?"

The corners of the Empress' mouth twitched: "You... who are you? Why... even Your Majesty doesn't know what I did, why do you know it so clearly?"

Is she a devil?

Jiang Xinyue laid her cards straight out: "The Empress could have gone anywhere else to admire the lotus, but she had to go to the Lotus Washing Palace to meet Jiang Zhaoyi by chance, and used her words to sow discord between Jiang Zhaoyi and Li Guiji, so that she could pretend to be a concubine and go to the Yanqing Palace to put arsenic, bamboo peach, phosphorus powder, cotton wool and other things, creating the illusion that Li Guiji was plotting to harm the heir. Sending Xia He away was to make it easier for Jiang Zhaoyi to kill people with incense!"

Jiang Yuan was the daughter of the Minister of Personnel, and among the six ministries, it was a saying that the Ministry of Personnel was rich, the Ministry of Revenue was rich, the Ministry of Rites was poor, the Ministry of War was military, the Ministry of Punishment was strict, and the Ministry of Works was mean.

This was because the Ministry of Personnel was in charge of the appointment and removal of all civil officials in various places in the Great Yan Dynasty, and there were many people who fawned on the Jiang family.

Jiang Yuan's mother came from a family of scholars. When she was still a noblewoman, she was the best at making incense. Jiang Yuan naturally inherited her mother's talent and studied incense making.

The Zhu family gave the Jiang family a "beauty fragrance" raw material, which contained the highly poisonous poinsettia flower.

Then the Jiang family used their connections to transport it to the palace and gave it to Jiang Yuan to make incense.

In the gap when Xia He left, Jiang Yuan lit the beauty fragrance. The characteristic of this fragrance is that the fragrance it emits can combine with the smell of the human body and turn into body fragrance, killing people without anyone noticing.

Moreover, the face of the person killed by the beauty fragrance will be very beautiful, the most beautiful appearance, making people mistakenly think that the person who inhaled the fragrance committed suicide.

To die in the most beautiful way and let the emperor remember her for the rest of her life is in line with Li Guiji's character.

But how did Jiang Xinyue know all this?

And she knew it in such detail.

It was as if she had seen it with her own eyes!

"Your Majesty seems surprised?"

In the room, apart from the rapid breathing of the empress and Fenyun, the only voice left was Jiang Xinyue's voice: "What is there to be surprised about? Jiang Zhaoyi brought poisoned snacks to harm me. She put laxatives in it. It was Your Majesty who asked the palace maids to replace it with arsenic, which led to Jiang Zhaoyi being demoted to a palace maid and suffering in the cold palace. In the past, I was just a small noble, and I was always ridiculed and bullied by Jiang Zhaoyi. Your Majesty... guess why I didn't take her life in the cold palace?"

For a long time, After a moment of silence, the queen's calm voice was filled with condescension: "From the beginning, you knew it was me. You told Jiang Zhaoyi that I made her a scapegoat. On the surface, Jiang Zhaoyi was coerced by me to kill Li Guiji, but in fact, she would never let Li Guiji go, and I... couldn't escape either."

Jiang Xinyue nodded: "At that time, Noble Ye used witchcraft to harm me, and Your Majesty became irritable because the incense was replaced. Your Majesty... It was not Noble Ye who replaced your incense, but Jiang Zhaoyi."

"How could it be?"

The queen shook her head: "Since Jiang Zhaoyi came out of the cold palace, you haven't even met alone. How could you cooperate so perfectly?"
