Chapter 393: Angry Rufei to death If

she could do that, she would not have entered the palace and remained a little Xiuyuan until now.

Shi Xiuyi paused in turning the bracelet, her expression became awkward, and she looked at Tong Xiuyuan, as if she wanted to say something but stopped, which aroused Tong Xiuyuan's curiosity: "What are you doing? We are sisters, is there anything that can't be said directly?"

"This..."

Shi Xiuyi sighed and said, "It's not that I can't say it, I just... don't know whether this is true or not, and I dare not say anything... After all... it concerns the reputation of the Empress. If it is false news, it may hurt the relationship between the Emperor and the Empress."

"Reputation?"

The more she said this, the more interested Tong Xiuyuan became: "Oh! You told me, and I won't tell anyone else, how could the Emperor know?"

"Then...you must not go out and tell nonsense!"

Shi Xiuyi whispered in Tong Xiuyuan's ear: "The last time my uncle and aunt came to the palace for a banquet, they told me that the Empress..."

The two stopped there and whispered for a long time, and even the palace servants couldn't hear what they said.

The side hall of Yanxi Palace-

Man'er looked at her master humming a Jiangnan tune in a good mood, and asked in some confusion: "My queen, your uncle spent a lot of effort to get this news, how could you tell Tong Xiuyuan so easily? This is a good opportunity to overthrow the Empress!"

Shi Xiuyi was trimming a pot of orchids in front of the window. Hearing this, he just smiled lightly: "My uncle told me so that if I offend the Empress, I can use it to protect myself. Anyway, we have caught Jiang Xinyue's handle, What does it matter who exposed it? Tong Xiuyuan and I have a good relationship, so it is only right for me to give her an opportunity. "

Man'er was confused and only understood the last sentence. She stepped forward to open the window to let the cool wind in, turned around and looked at Shi Xiuyi with admiration: "Your Majesty is too kind-hearted and unwilling to compete for favors. Otherwise, with your background, how could the Empress be surpassed by the Empress?"

When the Empress just entered the palace, the Jiang family was not even ranked among the noble families in the capital.

But her Majesty is the legitimate daughter of the Zhenbei General's Mansion!

Shi Xiuyi still smiled sweetly at her compliment, but in this smile, there was a deep calculation.

Giving Tong Xiuyuan this opportunity is to let her die!

Her uncle told her the news so that she could find a scapegoat as soon as possible.

Why did she want to be the one to expose it?

The emperor's obsession with Jiang Xinyue is well known in the palace. The former Concubine Li Gui, Concubine Shu, Concubine De... even the former empress were not her opponents, and she asked herself if she could not defeat her.

Don't fail to bring down the empress and end up losing your own life instead.

Even if the empress really did... before entering the palace, if she succeeded in exposing it, it would do more harm than good to her!

The emperor likes Jiang Xinyue so much and dotes on her so much, can he accept Jiang Xinyue's betrayal?

If he can't accept it, let alone what will happen to Jiang Xinyue, the person who exposes the empress's affair with someone will definitely die.

The emperor was reluctant to kill Jiang Xinyue, and might lock her up and torture her, but the person who exposed this matter would bear all the emperor's wrath.

She didn't want to be the informant killed by the emperor.

She was really tired of living in the cold palace-like Yanxi Palace!

"The imperial edict has arrived--"

Outside the Yanxi Palace and Jinhua Palace, the eunuchs who announced the edict read out the imperial edict to confer the title of concubine at the same time. The emperor slapped them, gave them a candy, and rejected the memorial to confer the title of empress

on Tong Xiuyuan and Shi Xiuyi. He conferred them the titles of Tong Fei and Shi Fei, and moved them from the side halls of the palace where they lived to the main hall.

It was very perfunctory, without even a title.

Jiang Xinyue, who was calculated by Shi Xiuyi, could no longer remember how many times she had come to the Suspension Mirror.

Concubine Ru and her maid were imprisoned together, while Huang Yanyu was imprisoned alone in the cell opposite.

The three were very excited when they saw Jiang Xinyue walking out of the darkness.

Huang Yanyu: "Cousin, cousin, I really know I was wrong. Please let me go home, please let me go home. I will never be delusional again. Wuwuwu... It's too scary here, I don't want to be here, I beg you... Wuwuwu..."

How could she know that she would be traced back to her so soon after poisoning Concubine Liang?

In order to clear herself of suspicion, she took poison herself and suffered such a serious crime, but it was all in vain.

The Queen Mother did not rely on evidence to solve the case. She just looked at herself twice and knew that it was her who poisoned her.

I don't know if the Queen Mother believes her when she casually attached herself to Concubine Ru?

Will she reveal the truth when she is interrogated later?

Wouldn't that make her crime even more serious?

Jiang Xinyue walked over, raised her hand and touched her head through the gap in the fence: "Don't be afraid, as long as it's not you who did it, cousin will protect you."

What...what?

Huang Yanyu's panicked eyes lit up: "Cousin..."

Does the Queen cousin mean...let her hold on to Concubine Ru?

Yes, yes...

Compared to her, a little palace maid, Concubine Ru's beauty is the biggest threat to the Queen cousin.

The Emperor now likes his cousin, so naturally he doesn't care about any beauty, but if one day, the Emperor suddenly feels that his cousin is not fresh anymore, wants to have some fun, and favors Concubine Ru...

this kind of thing will happen once and for all.

With the newly-appointed, beautiful beauties, once the emperor gets a taste of a younger and more beautiful body, my cousin will no longer be his moonlight and his cinnabar mole, but leftover rice and mosquito blood.

The queen cousin is so smart that she must have thought of this, so she wants to take precautions.

Huang Yanyu seems to have found a way to leave the palace alive.

"Queen, let me out. I am a princess of Goguryeo. You can't do this to me."

Concubine Ru didn't hear what Jiang Xinyue and Huang Yanyu said, but she knew that it must be something bad to her.

"Shut up!"

After entering the Suspense Department, Jiang Xinyue was not afraid that other concubines would hear what she said.

She glared at Concubine Ru impatiently: "Goguryeo, Goguryeo, you're not tired of talking about it, but my ears are ringing with worry. Is Goguryeo so great? It's a tiny place, but it has great ambitions. Like Fuso, it has been eyeing the land of our Great Yan. If your Goguryeo is so great, why do you want to marry into their family? Just let your brother send you to the throne!"

"Oh! I think too highly of your brother. He doesn't have the ability. You mention such a useless man again and again. Are you trying to remind me of his incompetence?"

"You are not allowed to insult my brother!"

Concubine Ru slammed her hands on the fence: "If my brother finds out, he will definitely..."

"What will happen?"

Jiang Xinyue crossed her arms and snorted disdainfully: "Does he dare to hit me or kill me? I'm afraid he won't dare to say a word, and then you will be broken!"

What does "break the cell" mean?

Is he mocking her for sitting in a cell now?

It's infuriating... It's really infuriating...

Ru Fei's teeth are almost broken, and she wants to rush out and pull Jiang Xinyue's hair.
