Seeing Qing Zhaoyi's pale face after seeing her, Su Fengnuan felt that the matter was a foregone conclusion.
She looked at Qing Zhaoyi. She thought she was just an innocent woman when she was painting boats in the East Lake of Lingyun Town, but she didn't expect to be so powerful that even she and Ye Chang were fooled.
At the beginning, in the case of the boat sinking murder in the East Lake in Lingyun Town, everyone thought that someone was pointing at Donggong with a sword and wanted to pull Donggong off his horse. Therefore, no one suspected that Donggong was the mastermind behind it. And Qingqing is a pawn in it. This chess piece played her role silently.
Su Fengnuan didn't quite understand Qingqing's role in the past, but now she understands that her role, earlier, was after the shipwreck of the East Lake painting boat in Lingyun Town, if she hadn't appeared, she would have been trapped in the silk net when Ye Chang fell into the water time, kill him. It's just that she appeared too timely at that time, so after seeing her martial arts, she didn't dare to make a move. Later, she borrowed the slope to get off the donkey and became the one rescued by her and Ye Chang, obeying their arrangement.
Later, after entering the palace, her role was to blow the wind around the pillow, the person who swayed the late emperor.
It's a pity that the first emperor knew at that time that King Jin was plotting trouble, so he took precautions against her and made use of her. He made her pregnant and was promoted to Qing Zhaoyi.
After becoming Qing Zhaoyi, she was naturally protected by the former emperor, and she couldn't be a moth in this palace.
The first emperor reigned throughout his life. Although he seemed moderate and peaceful, he knew how to check and balance.
It's just that he thought that the person who checked and balanced was King Jin, but he didn't expect that the person behind the conspiracy was the prime minister he had always trusted.
Su Fengnuan looked at Qingqing, sometimes women, once they gain power, are more ruthless than men, just like Concubine Yue and Concubine Xiao Xian. Whether it is the first prince or the prime minister, it is obvious that they all want to train Qingqing to become a second-month imperial concubine.
It's just a pity that she is destined to fail.
Seeing that Su Fengnuan had been looking at Qingqing without speaking, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager were not sure what she was thinking, but now that Su Fengnuan was with them, they both calmed down and did not speak.
The longer time passed, the more Qingqing felt the invisible pressure from Su Fengnuan, and her body trembled involuntarily.
Su Fengnuan felt that falling into a brothel was a poor person, but it was often this kind of poor person who could become a soft knife. If it is really useful, it can stab people to death with a single sword.
She was silent for about a cup of tea before slowly opening her mouth, "Qing Zhaoyi, are you going to use my blood to test your marriage? Or do you confess yourself and be lenient? Choose one!"
Qingqing raised her head with a pale face, looked at Su Fengnuan, for a moment, even the corners of her mouth trembled slightly.
Su Fengnuan said to her, "The prime minister took a half-step death last night. Before he died, he activated the destruction mechanism of the prime minister's mansion and destroyed the entire prime minister's mansion. Liu Yan was captured and defeated when he attacked the city. Although he was rescued Let's go, but from now on, I will never step into the gate of the capital. No matter who they are, they can't save you now."
Qingqing's face turned gray.
Su Fengnuan said, "At the beginning, I was the one who thought you were pitiful, and I felt pity for a moment, and fell into your scheme, and sent you to the palace by the hand of King Jin. Now, for this cause and effect, I am naturally here to accept it." If you are smart, don't fool me, with my medical skills, even if your child is in the womb, I can still test your relatives with a drop of blood to see if it is the blood of the late emperor."
Qingqing looked at the former emperor's little princes and sons standing behind Su Fengnuan, her body trembled more and more like a sieve.
The Empress Dowager saw her shaking all the time, and knew in her heart that the child in her womb must not belong to the late emperor. If so, she would not be shaking so hard and be so afraid of Su Fengnuan.
The queen mother was even more angry, "Bitch, don't hesitate to answer the queen's words! Otherwise, I will tear you apart."
Qingqing finally plucked up the courage, looked at Su Fengnuan, looked directly at her and said, "Empress Empress, if I confess, you...can you give me a way out?"
Su Fengnuan smiled, "It depends on what you trade for this way of life, confession alone is not enough."
Qingqing looked at her, "What do you want me to exchange?"
Su Fengnuan felt that at this point, it would be easy to put Qingqing to death, but it was just a bowl of poisoned wine, death with a stick, or as the Queen Mother said, it was very easy to divide the body by five horses. up. However, once a person dies, it is of no use.
Now that Southern Qi and Northern Zhou are in the same situation, if the child in her womb is the child of the eldest prince, then it is useless to Southern Qi, but it is not necessarily useless to Northern Zhou.
Although Concubine Xiao Xian has the eldest prince as her son, if his son dies, then she will cherish this grandson even more.
Relying on the child in her womb, Qingqing may be of some use.
She reached into her bosom, took out a jade bottle, poured out a pill, and handed it to her, "If you really want to die, eat this, and I'll tell you."
Qingqing looked at the purple-red pill that Su Fengnuan handed over to her. She gritted her teeth suddenly, picked up the pill with trembling hands, and stuffed it into her mouth.
The queen mother was worried, and said, "Swallow it, and stop playing tricks."
Su Feng warmly said, "It melts in the mouth."
The queen mother is relieved.
Su Fengnuan said, "Tell me the truth, whose child belongs to this belly?"
Qingqing lowered her head and said, "It belongs to the First Prince."
Su Fengnuan raised his eyebrows, "Because your eyebrows look a little like the jade face of the Ghost Mountain School?"
Qingqing nodded, "Yes."
Su Fengnuan sneered, "The eldest prince is also capable." After saying that, he said to her, "I will send someone to send you away from Beijing tonight to find the eldest prince and Concubine Xiao Xian. I want Concubine Xiao Xian's life. It will be done After that, I will give you the antidote."
Qingqing's face turned pale, "What's the time limit for this poison?"
Su Feng said warmly, "Hundred days."
Qingqing asked again with a pale face, "Is it harmful to the child?"
Su Fengnuan said, "No poison is harmless. After the poison is detoxified and the nourishment is good, it will cause a natural weakness." After that, he said to her, "You should know that your belly The child belongs to the First Prince, I'm not that kind. You don't have to think about detoxifying it, if the poison I made in the world is really used by others, no one else can detoxify it except me. "
Qingqing shook her body and nodded.
Su Fengnuan didn't say any more, turned around and told Koizumi, "I'll leave it to you. Arrange for a show and send her out of the palace to Jiangnan. The road will be more difficult, don't lose the child. Someone must take her away." Send it to Concubine Xiao Xian."
Koizumi felt that this was the first thing the empress entrusted to her, and he must finish it, so he immediately nodded heavily, "Don't worry! This servant will definitely finish this job."
Su Fengnuan nodded.
Although the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager felt that Qingqing was so cheap, Su Fengnuan had a plan to use her, which might cause chaos in the Northern Zhou Dynasty because of her, and the woman Concubine Xiao Xian died because of her. worth. He didn't stop him, and let Su Fengnuan handle it.
After seeing off Qingqing, Su Fengnuan, the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager returned to Ci'an Palace to rest.
On the second day, at the early morning on time, Su Fengnuan went to the Golden Palace.
The civil and military officials rested all night, and they were more energetic than yesterday. Ever since the eldest prince conspired, the Imperial Guard Army, Imperial Forest Army, and Five Cities Bing Masi had been under no one's command. Xu Yunchu presented a memorial of recommendation at the Golden Palace. Before the memorial recommended that the emperor return to Beijing, the inner city soldiers and horses of the three armies were combined into one, led by President Liu Wen, and Deputy Commander Zheng Zhongwei, to guard the capital.
Su Fengnuan is ready to play.
It was the first time for Liu Wen to set foot in the Golden Palace, and none of the civil and military officials expected that the eldest son of the Prince Jin's Mansion, although immersed in romance, was truly capable. Qianjinglu soldiers and horses, from now on, I really dare not underestimate the eldest son of the Jin Palace.
Obviously, he will definitely be reused by the new emperor and empress from now on.
The King of Jin fell ill when he heard that the King of Xiangjun and the Northern Zhou Dynasty had conspired against each other in the south of the Yangtze River. It's time, it's time to go to Jiuquan to plead guilty to the ancestors of the Liu family.
For the first time in many years, Liu Wen set foot in King Jin's courtyard. Looking at the gray-haired, old King Jin, who fell ill and begged for death, and did not seek medical advice, he stood silently in front of his bed for half an hour. .
When King Jin woke up drowsily, he saw him standing in front of the bed and said something to him, "After I die, Prince Jin's mansion will be handed over to you."
Liu Wen was silent.
King Jin said again, "I know that for so many years you have been resentful that I was responsible for the deaths of King Rong An and Princess Wang. I did not ask you to forgive me for doing evil things. Except for me, everyone in King Jin's mansion is innocent. I I have already negotiated with Ye Chang and Su Fengnuan. My life will be exchanged for the lives of everyone in the Jin Palace. They will let the past go. I think they treat you very well. As long as you don’t make big mistakes, the Jin Palace can still be in Beijing. stand."
Liu Wen remained silent.
The King of Jin said again, "Liu Yan's child was protected by me so well, it's a good thing to experience it outside now. You are his biological father, no matter who else you are, you have to take care of him, right? After I die, he will return to Beijing , you tell him for me, just say that in this lifetime, grandpa loves him the most, let him live a good life and be loyal to the court. This world belongs to the Liu family. Our blood is the Liu family, so we should take responsibility above responsibility.”
Liu Wen finally said, "It would be great if you had thought this way earlier."
King Jin said with relief, "You finally talked to me." After finishing speaking, he said, "I've been confused all my life, and I didn't realize it until I was old. It's too late." After a pause, he said, "I'm leaving, you should remember well Stop what I say." After finishing speaking, he finally closed his eyes.
King Jin went away peacefully, but his only regret was that he didn't see his most beloved grandson Liu Yan before he died.
Liu Wen had resented King Jin for many years, but now with his death, the resentment disappeared and the hatred was healed. After all, it was his biological father, and he kowtowed three times to see him off. Then, he ordered Jin Wangfu to hang white cloth and set up a mourning hall.
