C75 (2/2)

Luo Ninghai knew that this was the critical time to abandon the Consort Xian and immediately replied in surprise: ”Ah? Concubine … I don't know at all! ”

”No wonder the Consort Xian dared to set up a secret room in the Bedchamber and hang a portrait of the sinner there as his own sacrifice. So she actually had some ulterior motives,” Su Rushuang's eyes flashed with a trace of maliciousness, ”The Consort Xian is willing to live with the enemy who killed her father, Imperial Concubine Wan.

Consort Xian knelt down weakly and said with a trembling voice, ”Your Majesty, chenqie doesn't have any, chenqie doesn't have any ulterior motives!”

Su Rushuang embellished another sentence, ”When big sister Consort Xian was paying her respects to the sinners, what did she say?”

Consort Xian lowered her head and replied softly, ”I only hope that the former Empress can rest in peace.”

”So it's like that,” Su Rushuang sneered, ”It can't be something like 'Big Sis will wait for you to come back,' or something like that, right?”

Meng Qianzhong looked at Su Rushuang with a headache, his eyes completely bloodshot. ”We handed over to Noble Consort the power to manage the harem, and now we even have to take away our authority to interrogate them?”

Su Rushuang bit her lips. She had already said what she needed to say, so she no longer needed to say it.

The Consort Xian dropped a line of tears. ”Your Majesty, there must be something fishy going on that year. Your Majesty must …”

”What happened that year, I know very well, there's no need for you to worry about me,” Meng Qianzhong said as he looked at Chen Wanqian, ”Consort Xian had set up a secret room, to be demoted to a genius, and she would be given the careful title, to let her understand what being cautious means and what is meant by being cautious.”

Su Rushuang heaved a sigh of relief, she would always be confused if she met with anything related to Mu Langhua.

Meng Qianzhong then swept her with his cold eyes, ”That palace maid, her staff is dead!”

Su Rushuang anxiously looked at Chen Xiang, but she had long been dragged down.

”Your Majesty, it was Chen Xiang who discovered the Consort Xian's secret room.

”If Noble Consort speaks any more, I will think that you are deliberately looking for trouble.”

Su Rushuang stared blankly at her, and could only shut her mouth bitterly.

Luo Ninghai watched on coldly from the sidelines as all of this happened, a faint smile on her lips. She was indeed the Great General's younger sister, only she could come up with a plan to kill two birds with one stone.

”Your majesty,” She who had been reduced to a cautious talent looked at Meng Qianzhong with tears in his eyes, ”Chenqie has no second thoughts, your chenqie's father does not either, and the Mu’s Army that died in the battlefield has even less!”

Meng Qianzhong clenched his fists tightly, his crimson eyes staring straight at the person in front of him, ”Don't speak nonsense.”

”Your majesty, are you speaking nonsense or are you just doing random things? The previous Empress, Mu Langhua, had to bear the responsibility of causing the destruction of the harem, so she died a horrible death. You …”

”Someone come,” Meng Qianzhong bellowed angrily, ”Shut the wise man inside his Zhongcui Palace, he is not allowed to come out without our order!” He gritted his teeth and said, ”If not for the fact that you broke the dragon embryo, I would have long since executed you.”

”Even if the emperor hadn't executed me, my heart would have died on the battlefield along with Mu’s Army,” the cautious person laughed hopelessly, ”Your majesty, do you know how many times you called out for Mu Langhua when you came back from your dreams at midnight?”

When she finished speaking, she closed her eyes and fainted.

Chen Wanqian quickly helped her up, and tried to push her a few times, but no sound came out. When he looked down, he saw that her clothes were dyed red with fresh blood.

Luo Ninghai caressed the black cat gently with her hand, and asked coldly: ”How is Jing Cai?”

Qing Ning replied respectfully: ”The child is gone, her vitality is greatly injured, and she is unable to see the light of day. When the sky had just begun to brighten, she had already left.”

Luo Ninghai was relieved, ”That's good.”

”Empress,” Qing Ning said in confusion, ”Why did the Empress want to get rid of her?”

”I don't like people who are related to that scoundrel Mu Langhua. When the emperor saw her, he couldn't help but think of Mu Langhua, and he also had a dilemma in his heart, so it would be better to get rid of him as soon as possible,” Luo Ninghai said as a smile appeared on her lips.

”Esteemed wangfei's trick is really too ruthless, expecting Su Rushuang to use us, she struck first and allowed this servant to return to Zhongcui Palace, luring Chen Xiang to the secret room.”

”From the scouts that she sent, I can see that Chen Xiang is someone who is eager for quick results. If she sees what the cautious person is doing in the secret room, she can go and claim credit from Su Rushuang, but unfortunately, I'm still a bit better.”

”Empress, then you and Su Rushuang are the only ones in the palace from now on.”

”In the near future, I should be able to rise to the position of Consort,” Luo Ninghai pursed her lips and smiled, ”At that time, a new batch of concubines will come in from the palace, and Su Rushuang and I won't be the only ones.”

”After the Empress ascends to the position of Consort, there will no longer be a need to live in the Zhongcui Palace.”

”The Zhongcui Palace is really unlucky, and I don't want to stay any longer. Right now, the storage palace is pretty good, let's stay here for now, we'll talk about it in the future.”

Qing Ning said with a smile, ”If the Empress can become the Empress in the future, then we can live in the Donghua Palace.”

”Donghua Palace?” Luo Ninghai laughed contemptuously, ”I do not care about the place that Sin Woman lives, furthermore, the Emperor has already ordered us to stop setting her up here. I don't know if I can break this rule.” When she thought again, she realized that there would be more concubines fighting in the palace. If she met one or two strong enemies, it would probably be difficult for her to become a Noble Consort.

”Qing Ning, do you think we can stop the Emperor from choosing talents? I don't want the Emperor to choose too many women.”

Qing Ning rolled her eyes, and laughed: ”When this servant was at the Chiron, I often heard that the emperor and the two nations of the Qi Qin were to be betrothed.

Luo Ninghai thought for a moment, then clapped her hands and praised: ”This idea is not bad.”
