As she spoke, her gaze met Su Qinyue's, a sinister glint in her eyes.
Clearly, this year of life in the harem has completely transformed Xing Xiaoya, who used to be able to live comfortably without having to resort to scheming.
"You're quite capable; both the Emperor and the Third Prince are still thinking about you. You should thank me, otherwise, once you became the Third Prince's consort and got entangled with the Emperor, you'd probably be the second Yang Guifei. Oh, who is Yang Guifei? You probably don't know, but I can tell you, her end was extremely tragic," Su Qinyue said coldly.
As soon as she finished speaking, Xing Xiaoya's body trembled violently.
What does Su Qinyue mean by this? Yang Guifei is one of the Four Beauties, but the dynasty she traveled to doesn't exist in history, and there are no Four Beauties.
Su Qinyue was also a time traveler?
Xing Xiaoya always believed that she was the chosen one, which is why she traveled to this world and saved the down-on-his-luck young master Jiang Chengli. Later, she went to the capital and became close friends with Princess Zhaoyang, and was even recognized as a goddaughter by the wife of the Marquis of Zhongyi.
But now another time-traveling woman has appeared. What about her previous confidence?
Her mind was in turmoil, but she dared not show it in front of Su Qinyue. She could only barely maintain her expression and let out a cold snort.
"Ha, you defeated opponent, stop spreading your lies and saying things no one can understand. I'm tired, let's go back to the palace!"
She left after saying that, then hurriedly took the hand of a palace maid and left, clearly afraid that if she stayed any longer, she would be exposed.
[Strange, why would Su Qinyue say something like that on purpose? Xing Xiaoya doesn't know she's also a time traveler. By saying this, isn't she just making Xing Xiaoya even more wary of her? Originally, she was going to let her die in the cold palace, but now she'll have to be ruthless and kill her, right?]
Does Su Qinyue have a death wish?
Xu Wanying was engrossed in reading when the system couldn't help but ask a question.
"Of course not. There's a reason she did that."
"What's the reason?" the system asked.
"How would I know? Just keep watching." Xu Wanying retorted irritably.
Just as the system predicted, after Xing Xiaoya came out of the Cold Palace, she ordered the palace servants to kill Su Qinyue.
"We need to act quickly, otherwise things might get complicated, and I won't feel at ease. But you all need to be careful not to give others any leverage against you."
[Tsk tsk, System, your charming heroine has become ruthless. She can no longer be a pure and innocent little white flower.] Xu Wanying clicked her tongue.
The system nonchalantly replied: "So what? This harem is a place that devours people; anyone who comes here will become a poisonous woman. No matter what Xing Xiaoya becomes, she's still the true female lead!"
The scene then shifts back to Su Qinyue, who remained motionless until half an hour later when a palace servant entered.
"My lady, I will help you with your washing and grooming."
The palace maids carried her the finest palace attire, and after dressing her up, she was no longer the disheveled concubine she had been in the cold palace. She transformed into a radiant beauty, as if she had never been banished to the cold palace.
