Su Jingyao sat upright on the couch with a solemn expression, like a frozen statue.
Li Jing on the opposite side looked at her. At this time, the warm room was silent, with only the two of them left. Su Jingyao had already asked Miaoyun to guard outside.
Only Li Jing could know that she was planning to fake her death and leave the palace.
"Is the Queen really going to leave the palace?"
When Li Jing heard her express her idea of leaving the palace, he felt his heart suddenly shrink, as if it was about to jump out of his throat.
He originally thought that quietly guarding her in the palace for the rest of his life would be a fulfillment.
But she actually said she wanted to leave the palace!
An indescribable joy spread in Li Jing's heart.
Su Jingyao nodded slightly, her movement was light but extremely firm.
"Only you and I know this."
Her voice was low, and her eyes were filled with unquestionable determination.
"As long as it's what you want, I'm willing to help you."
Li Jing's eyes were also extremely firm. No matter what the reason was that made her have such an idea, as long as it was what she wanted to do, he would definitely help her.
"The best time to fake my death would be the day I give birth, but before I leave the palace, I must clear all obstacles for my unborn child and the Su family."
Su Jingyao took a deep breath and frowned slightly.
She has always been selfish. She just wants to live a comfortable and happy life. Family and children come after herself.
Su Jingyao will never let family glory bind her life. If family glory is consistent with her goal, she will go all out. Otherwise, she will never let it tie her hands and feet.
What she was most worried about was Xingxing, but Jun Zechen always treated the princes equally, and the only thing Su Jingyao could get for Xingxing was Jun Zechen's promise. Before she faked her death, she must let Jun Zechen protect Xingxing for life.
"Is she a concubine in the harem?"
"Xianfei, Ye Yaqin, the legitimate daughter of the Ye family, including her family."
"The Queen Mother and His Majesty guarded my pregnancy very closely. No concubine dared to attack me. In addition, two other concubines in the harem were pregnant, which drew some attention to my pregnancy."
If Su Jingyao did not plan to leave the palace, she would naturally be happy with this situation.
But now, since no one dares to harm her, it seems a little difficult for her to frame someone.
"However, in this situation, it would be difficult to frame Concubine Xian for my difficult labor. Concubine Xian is smart and calm, and she wouldn't do anything unless she was absolutely sure."
"The only thing we can use is that His Majesty has already planned to get rid of the Ye family. If we can..."
After hearing her analysis, Li Jing couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
After a long while, he slowly said, "Then we will give her a plan that will be sure to make you suffer a difficult labor."
Upon hearing this, Su Jingyao raised her eyes slightly and looked at him.
"Do you have an idea?"
Li Jing nodded, looking determined.
"Don't worry, Queen, I will arrange everything."
Su Jingyao raised her eyebrows. Li Jing might have more people in the palace than she, the queen who had just taken the throne, so she didn't ask any more questions.
After chatting with Li Jing that day, a few days passed leisurely.
Su Jingyao was resting and taking care of her pregnancy, and she had great trust in Li Jing's arrangements. Her most important goal now was to make Jun Zechen believe that she truly loved him and that Jun Zechen would not have any suspicion about her "death".
After all, how could someone who longed to be the queen so much and loved him so much fake her death and leave the palace?
-
Zhongcui Palace.
When Ye Yaqin received the letter from her family today, her originally gentle face was instantly filled with gloom and her expression became extremely serious.
There was deep worry in his eyes and his brows were furrowed.
She was shocked that her father actually condoned the Ye family branch's training of private soldiers in other cities, and her heart was filled with confusion like a tangled mess.
She really didn't understand. The Ye family now held high positions in the court and enjoyed all the glory and wealth. What was there to be dissatisfied about?
Both the late emperor and Your Majesty who has just ascended the throne are wise rulers who govern the country in an orderly manner and the people live and work in peace and contentment.
If the Ye family rebelled at this moment, wouldn't it be despised by the world? Where did Daddy get his confidence from? Was it simply because he controlled some of the military power of the monarchy?
Ye Yaqin thought about it over and over again, but couldn't figure it out. In desperation, she could only write a letter to ask her father.
But her father's answer was that he was not training soldiers to rebel, but to make plans for her to give birth to a prince in the future.
Daddy's goal has always been to make her the queen and to have her future prince become the emperor of the kingdom.
Although this has always been Ye Yaqin's dream, if His Majesty knew about such a confidential matter as training soldiers, it would be a serious crime that would lead to the confiscation of property and extermination of the clan!
The more Ye Yaqin thought about it, the more frightened she became. She gripped the letter paper tightly in her hand, her knuckles turning white from the force.
She couldn't help but recall Ling Yue's words that His Majesty would get rid of the Ye family for the Queen.
When Ling Yue "died", Ye Yaqin knew that this was just a pretext for His Majesty to send Ling Yue out of the palace, so she specially ordered people outside the palace to keep a close eye on Ling Yue's movements.
If Ling Yue really knew something about the future, she would naturally keep such a person firmly in her hands. Maybe she could even rely on some information from Ling Yue to deal a fatal blow to the Queen.
But she never expected that the people she sent out failed to intercept Ling Yue at all. Could it be that Ling Yue was really dead?
Or was it that Ling Yue was actually deceived by His Majesty, and His Majesty was so cruel as to kill his wife for the Queen?
Ye Yaqin was leaning on the couch with her eyes half closed, thinking solemnly.
