The emperor and empress returned to Kunning Palace together.
At this time, only the candle at the end of the bed was burning weakly in Kunning Palace.
Outside the window, a cold moon hangs high in the sky, and the cold moonlight shines through the window lattice onto the ground, adding a bit of silence and desolation to the palace.
The two people's gentle breathing sounds could be clearly heard in the quiet palace.
Su Jingyao leaned on Jun Zechen's shoulder. She was not sleepy at all, but her mind was thinking rapidly about what happened today.
Today's incident is definitely related to Yan Zhaoyi, but I don't know who is conspiring with her.
But who is it?
Xu Xiurong?
White Concubine?
Or someone else?
But why did they deal with Concubine Xian?
Because Concubine Xian is hers now?
Su Jingyao frowned slightly, thinking secretly in her heart.
These women are still doing some small things behind the scenes, with only two purposes: one is to win favor, and the other is for the prince.
No matter what their purpose is, the person they actually want to deal with is definitely her, not Concubine Xian.
It was difficult for them to deal with her. The people in Kunning Palace were either Su Jingyao's or Jun Zechen's. At least these women couldn't kill her.
So their purpose is to make Jun Zechen hate her?
Jun Zechen has not been in the harem for almost two years. The queen is hers, the eldest son is hers, and the emperor's favor is concentrated on her.
As long as they have ambitions, they can only start with Jun Zechen.
But how do they plan to alienate her and Jun Zechen?
Su Jingyao frowned unconsciously.
Xianfei......
The virtuous concubine did know some of the things she had done in the Eastern Palace, such as Concubine Tang's miscarriage that framed Ling, and Ling's embarrassing behavior in front of the late emperor's spirit.
Apart from these two things, Concubine Xian probably doesn't know her other plans.
What would happen if Jun Zechen knew that she had been plotting against him when she was in the Eastern Palace?
Although Jun Zechen has accepted her vicious and calculating side, that was also Su Jingyao's gradual "blackening".
It was Su Jingyao who schemed against others, making Jun Zechen think that she was the one being schemed against, so in the end, she changed from being innocent and kind to being vicious and scheming as she is now.
What would Jun Zechen do if he knew that she had never been pure and kind, and had been scheming against him and trying to win his heart from the very beginning?
Su Jingyao closed her eyes, thoughts swirling in her mind.
"ah."
Her waist was pinched hard, her brows furrowed instantly, and she couldn't help but exclaim.
"Can't sleep?"
Jun Zechen's low voice sounded in her ears, with a bit of magnetism.
As he spoke, he put his arm around her waist and lifted her up, his movements seemingly casual but full of possessiveness.
"What are you thinking about?"
"Thinking about what happened tonight."
Su Jingyao said softly, her voice gentle and straightforward, and she rubbed against his arms after she finished speaking.
Then he asked, "Your Majesty, do you think Concubine Chu was murdered by Concubine Xian?"
She tilted her head slightly, with a hint of inquiry in her eyes.
"no."
Su Jingyao raised her eyebrows, and he answered straightforwardly.
"Then who do you think it is, Your Majesty?"
"No matter who they are, I will protect Yaoyao and will not let them hurt you in the slightest. If these women are bored, let them fight."
"As long as the heir to the throne is not harmed, I don't care about anything else."
Jun Zechen tightened his arms and held her tightly in his arms.
"I have assigned someone to protect each of the royal heirs, so Yaoyao can relax. No matter what they do, it will not affect Yaoyao's status."
His tone was calm and confident, everything was under control.
She is his queen. As long as there is no problem with the royal heir, no one can touch her, and she will not cause dissatisfaction among the officials.
If the royal heir is harmed, Jun Zechen is only worried that her mother will deal with her.
After hearing this, Su Jingyao fell into deep thought.
She was not afraid that these women would harm her. If these women could harm her, they would not have framed Concubine Xian.
Most likely he wanted to alienate her and Jun Zechen.
But Jun Zechen obviously felt that the two of them were now impeccable, their relationship was stable, they had both a son and a daughter, and both the court and the harem were under their control.
Very confident.
How about giving Jun Zechen a little shock?
Give his smooth life some excitement?
Su Jingyao's lips curled up into a wicked smile, revealing a hint of cunning.
She also wanted to know, what would Jun Zechen do if he knew that she had only been scheming against him from the beginning to the end?
"Your Majesty, as the Empress, if I tolerate the concubines in the harem framing each other so unscrupulously, my mother will also be dissatisfied."
Su Jingyao pouted her lips slightly and complained softly.
"No, after the Queen Mother handed over the power of the harem to you, Yaoyao has done a great job in both the affairs of the six palaces and the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
Jun Zechen's eyes were full of admiration and tenderness.
His initial liking for her may have been due to her appearance, but later on, her ability to handle things, her intelligence, and many other aspects of her made him like her more and more.
Sometimes when Jun Zechen thought he had gotten to know her completely, she would surprise him again.
His eyes became deep, as if he was recalling the past.
She said in a gentle voice, "I went to pay my respects to my mother before, and she praised you, saying that you are even more powerful than when she first became queen."
Jun Zechen showed a relieved smile.
"The last time I went out to fight, you were the only one guarding the harem. You also sent me the Canglang topographic map. The court officials also praised my queen."
She had never troubled him. Whenever Jun Zechen heard people praising her, he would feel proud from the bottom of his heart. This was his queen, his wife.
