Chapter 443: Secret (ii)

The man in black obviously did not expect Qilian Yuran to say such words, but when her words came out, he knew that everything could not be changed, because Qilian Qingyan's death was indeed related to him.

It was because he said bad things about Qilian Qingyan in Qilian Qingyi's ears. Everything was planned secretly by him. As for the entire plan, he knew it.

"Xuanyuan Hao, you obviously used to like Yan'er so much, why did you push her into the abyss? Do you really think that can change everything? That will only make me hate you even more," Qilian Yuran looked at him and said coldly. Saying, "I hate you and don't want to see you."

"I feel very sorry about Yan'er." Xuanyuan Hao looked at Qi Lian Yuran and said helplessly, "I really didn't know that Yan'er would end up like that. If I knew, I definitely wouldn't say such things."

"So what?" Qilian Yuran said helplessly, "She is dead, can she still come back?"

Xuanyuan Hao remained silent.

"You can go, I can pretend that you have never appeared." Qilian Yuran said and turned away from looking at the expression on Xuanyuan Hao's face, "I won't tell anyone that you were here."

Xuanyuan Hao looked at Qilian Yuran who turned around and then disappeared.

Qingyan looked at the news about Qilian Yuran in front of her, and she couldn't figure out the relationship between her and Cheng Yue's dream. After all, what happened back then could not be restored.

"Xiao Yan'er, don't worry about the mother and concubine." Murong Jingxuan looked at Qing Yan and said seriously, "We couldn't stop what happened back then."

"I understand." Qingyan looked at Murong Jingxuan and shook her head helplessly, "But you have to know, after all, I want to find out about this matter, especially the forces behind Cheng Yuemeng."

"We don't know the man in black behind Cheng Yuemeng, and we can't investigate clearly." Xuanyuan Yuzhen looked at them and said calmly.

"Xu Yao, did you get any news from Ning Sicai?" Qingyan said and looked at Xu Yao beside her.

Xu Yao thought of the expression on Ning Sicai's face and shook his head helplessly, "I don't know. The empress did go to see the imperial concubine, but she didn't tell me the reason."

"I asked the maids around the concubine about what happened to Xiao Yan'er that day, and they all said that the concubine admitted to poisoning herself."

"Of course I know this." Qingyan said helplessly, "But the mother-in-law's character is not like this."

Qingyan closed her eyes and let the events of the day replay in her mind.

Concubine Yi, Concubine Shu, and everyone replayed it in her mind.

"I understand!" Qingyan looked at them and said with sudden enlightenment, "Jingxuan, fourth brother, I understand why the mother-in-law admitted to the poisoning."

Seeing the expression on Qingyan's face, they frowned and asked, "Why did the mother-in-law admit to the poisoning?"

Qingyan looked at them and said, "According to the character of the mother and concubine, if she really wants to poison, then it is impossible that only concubine Shu will be poisoned, but all the people will be poisoned." After Qingyan collected her thoughts, she continued, "It was precisely because the mother-in-law knew that it was Concubine Shu that poisoned her herself, so she tried to lure out the person behind Concubine Shu, and the father..." Qingyan paused. After a pause, he continued, "I think my father must know about this."

"But that day, even the maids around the concubine said that the concubine admitted to poisoning." Xuanyuan Yuzhen said in confusion.

"That's right." Qingyan said with a smile, "When we got there, who was helping Concubine Shu to speak." Qingyan raised the corners of her lips happily when she thought of that scene, "It was Concubine Yi who was helping Concubine Shu. The concubine speaks, not others, so I think there must be something to do with the meeting between Concubine Yi and Concubine Shu, or there is some kind of transaction between them."

"Why?"

"According to Concubine Yi's arrogant character, how could she help Concubine Shu? You must know that everyone in the harem does not want the other person to be favored, but such an arrogant Concubine Yi would actually help Concubine Shu speak, so I I think there must be some kind of relationship between them." When she thought of this, Qingyan said lightly to the air, "Yaoji, go and investigate the matter between Concubine Yi and Concubine Shu."

"My subordinate understands."

"Master, we have investigated the matter between Concubine Shu and Concubine Yi." Liu Shan and Ying Ying appeared in front of Qing Yan as they spoke. "Based on the reports from our spies, we have investigated some matters from that year."

"Oh!" Qingyan looked at them and said with interest, "What things have you investigated?"

"Master, do you still remember Xuanyuan Hao?" Liu Shan looked at Qing Yan and spoke seriously.

Xuanyuan Hao, this name is naturally familiar to Qingyan, because he is the name of Qi Lian Yuran's first sweetheart. As for the origin of Xuanyuan Hao, she has never known it, especially when Xuanyuan Hao disappeared in the end, and Qi Lian Yuran also I came out of that relationship and fell in love with Emperor Hongjia.

"Xuanyuan Hao?" Xuanyuan Yuzhen frowned and asked, "Is the information you investigated really about Xuanyuan Hao?"

Liu Shan looked at Xuanyuan Yuzhen and nodded seriously, "Yes, it is indeed something about Xuanyuan Hao. How come the Fourth Highness knows about this person?"

Xuanyuan Yuzhen looked at them and nodded seriously, "I have only heard of this name before. If I remember correctly, this should be the name of the late emperor's eldest son."

"What? The late emperor's eldest son? Isn't that his father's royal brother?" This time, Qingyan was surprised. Qingyan had never known that Xuanyuan Hao was once the crown prince of Toga Kingdom

"I don't know much about him. After all, Xuanyuan Hao died after Emperor Fu ascended the throne." Xuanyuan Yuzhen looked at them and said helplessly, "So I don't know."

"Dead?" Qingyan frowned and asked, "How did you die?"

Xuanyuan Yuzhen shook his head, "I don't know how he died. The only thing I can be sure of is this name."

"Master." Liu Shan looked at Qing Yan and said with a smile, "The Fourth Highness is right. This Xuanyuan Hao was the former crown prince of Donghe, and the death of the late empress back then was also related to him?"

"What? How could her death be related to Xuanyuan Hao?" After hearing what she said, Qingyan felt even more confused. Why was Qilian Qingyan's death related to Xuanyuan Hao

"Miss, you must not have thought of it, right?" Shadow looked at the expression on Qingyan's face and said calmly, "It was Xuanyuan Hao who said to Qi Lian Qingyi that she was a demon queen who brought disaster to the country and the people, so Qi Lian Qingyi could easily kill her Kick it down and get into the back position.”
