"Concubine Xuan, can you remember the situation at that time?" The emperor watched her eyes change several times, but he couldn't say anything, and seemed worried.
In fact, in the afternoon, it became obvious that what An said was that Concubine Xuan wanted to kill her first, so the assassin killed her.
But the emperor still wanted to hear what Concubine Xuan had to say.
"Your Majesty, this concubine... hurts." Although Concubine Xuan's mind was confused, there was no familiar person around her, so she did not dare to speak rashly.
After all, it was he and Concubine Xiao who conspired to kill An.
But there was such a man in black in the middle. Concubine Xuan didn't know what was going on, but she also knew that she was probably being used.
But she couldn't think of that much at the moment. Her body ached and her mind was not clear, but she knew that she shouldn't say anything at the moment.
Seeing this, the emperor nodded clearly, stood up, and let Dr. Wen come in.
Wen Yu assisted from the side and gave Xuan Fei acupuncture, and her pain was somewhat relieved.
"Can you tell me now? What happened at that time?" the emperor asked again.
"My concubine... was injured by a man in black." Concubine Xuan thought about it again and again, and finally came up with this sentence.
"What else?" the emperor continued to ask.
"Your Majesty, where is my concubine's maid?" She looked around, a little anxious.
"died."
died……
What is going on and why is this happening.
Concubine Xuan couldn't hold on any longer, so she closed her eyes helplessly. She couldn't help but feel sad when she thought that her maidservant was gone.
"Your Majesty, I have a headache and I can't remember. Can you please let me take it easy?" Concubine Xuan said, weakly softening and lying back to her original position.
The emperor looked at her disappointedly. He gave her a chance but didn't use it. He couldn't blame himself for protecting her.
"Then you have a good rest. I will come see you tomorrow."
After the emperor finished speaking, he stood up and went out.
After the emperor went out, Concubine Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Walking outside, the emperor saw Jin Xin waiting here. He cleared his throat and said warmly, "Concubine Xuan just woke up. Now Pei An is still doing her duty in Dingzhou. In order not to chill the hearts of the border soldiers, Concubine Xuan's matter, That’s it for now.”
Jin Xin didn't want it to end like this.
However, she smiled gently and said, "I know that I have remembered everything the emperor said. I just said a few words to her and then left."
The emperor hummed, looking extremely tired.
"I still have a lot of things to deal with. I'm afraid I won't have time to see you and the children these days. You and Concubine Lan will have to work harder for this year's New Year's Eve banquet, so it must be done well."
"I understand, I will obey the order." She still looked calm.
It's not that the Emperor doesn't know what Jin Xin wants to do if she stays here. Concubine Xuan has indeed gone too far. Jin Xin can't let it out without making a fuss. He gave her a chance just now, but she refused to take it.
As long as she speaks out and he gives her a little punishment, Jin Xin will give herself a face and won't continue to embarrass her.
Pei An has now gone to Dingzhou and has not made any achievements yet, but he has just arrived there and he still has 50,000 Pei family troops in his hands. He should not be underestimated. Once he develops a rebellious mentality, he will be in trouble.
So there is really no need to make Pei An dissatisfied over these things.
"By the way, the maid next to Concubine Xuan is dead. I think those below must not be considerate. Please invite Mrs. Pei to the palace to accompany Concubine Xuan tomorrow, so that she can rest in peace and recover." The emperor finally said.
Jin Xin smiled when she heard this and said, "I will definitely do as you are told and send a carriage to pick up Mrs. Pei tomorrow morning."
I'm afraid the news about Concubine Xuan hasn't reached Dingzhou yet. Now that people are awake, the news can naturally be released. But if something happens to my sister in the palace, my brother will definitely not be happy. He has a lot of thoughts, so he can only call him Pei. The wife came to live in the palace, and his wife was in the palace, so he dared not fail to do his best.
Jin Xin knew that he was just waiting for an opportunity to take back his military power.
Without military power, the Pei family could also reassure the emperor.
There is nothing wrong with Concubine Xuan settling down and enjoying herself until her death.
The emperor nodded and then went out.
Jin Xin walked in, and Concubine Xuan felt Jin Xin's approach for the first time. Just as she was about to take a rest, she vaguely saw a figure standing by the screen, who looked very much like the person she hated.
With a look from Jin Xin, Doctor Wen bowed and bowed out.
The two maids standing next to Concubine Xuan saw this and did not dare to stay, so they had to go out.
Concubine Xuan was startled and saw her slowly walking behind the screen and coming out.
"Why is it you? What are you doing here?" Concubine Xuan tried to sit up.
Jin Xin stepped forward, raised his hand and gently put it on her shoulder, gesturing for her to lie back.
Concubine Xuan stared at her, feeling the pressure, and could only slowly lie back down. She did not speak, her eyes were unconvinced, fearful and guilty.
"There are only two of us here, and I won't beat around the bush with you. Did you conspire with Concubine Xiao to kill my mother that day?" Jin Xin looked at her lightly and asked.
Jin Xin already knew what the truth was, and the emperor also knew it, but Concubine Xuan didn't know it, so Jin Xin felt that it was necessary to let her know.
Concubine Xuan paused, averting her gaze with a guilty conscience, and her erratic eyes proved Jin Xin's guess.
"I don't know what you're talking about." Concubine Xuan turned her head away, suppressing her nervousness and replied.
"You don't know, or do you think you still have a chance to make a comeback?" Jin Xin raised her eyebrows. She was not surprised by Concubine Xuan's reaction. She even didn't think Concubine Xuan was capable of doing anything.
"What do you want to say? I'm injured now. If something happens to me, the emperor won't be able to spare you." Concubine Xuan gritted her teeth.
"Do you think the emperor doesn't know what you did? You just woke up and you don't know that Concubine Xiao was dealt with in the afternoon, right?" Jin Xin said with a smile.
Concubine Xuan was shocked when she heard this, "What? Why?"
Then what they conspired to do, isn't it...?
Seeing Jin Xin looking at her with a cold and sarcastic smile, Concubine Xuan didn't understand anything.
"So what do you want to do here?"
Settle accounts after the fall?
To say you are not afraid is a lie.
Jin Xin smiled and played with her hair, her expression as calm as water, "My mother is fine and has left the palace safely. The Emperor also knows what you and Concubine Xiao did. Let me tell you, the man in black is Xia Qiu. Concubine Xiao's dead soldier, you are the chess piece she used to bring down this palace. You are very lucky and have an unusual constitution. Otherwise, that pair of scissors should have pierced your heart." Jin Xin said, His index finger poked at her wound.
Concubine Xuan whimpered in pain, but Jin Xin tried harder to release her hatred. With revengeful hatred in her eyes, she raised her hand and slapped Concubine Xuan on the face.
Seeing that she was dissatisfied, he slapped her again.
Concubine Xuan couldn't bear the pain, and tears burst out of her eyes. She looked at Jin Xin with humiliation, "I will definitely repay you for the insult you have suffered today."
"What you did to me was because I felt sorry for you in the past because of my father's affairs, and because Concubine Lan didn't want to embarrass you, she never paid attention to it. But after today, you can take care of yourself."
Concubine Xuan gritted her teeth, "Why are you pretending to be great? Who cares about your apology!"
Jin Xin didn't care about her roar. When he stood up, he looked at her with a sarcastic smile, "I know you want to have a child, but I tell you that you will never have a child in your life."
