Reborn, after dressing up as a vicious female supporting character

Chapter 436 Sure enough, the palace does not keep idle people

The other side obviously did not expect that they would be so well prepared, and the fire attack that was always effective was ineffective! It was impossible to say that they were not panicking, and they were all confused for a moment.

Coupled with the double-sided attack from the Golden Feather Guards and Chi Xiao, the people sent by Concubine Zhao Hui gradually couldn't hold out and were eventually captured.

Zhou Junlin wanted to go over and ask some questions, but these people simply bit the poison hidden in their teeth and committed suicide.

After checking, Gu Ha replied: "Your Majesty, they are all deadly warriors!"

Without waiting for Zhou Junlin to speak, Song Lianhe stepped forward, looked closely and said, "Their deaths are the same as the assassins we encountered in Sishui City. They should be from Nanchen Country."

Zhou Junlin nodded, then said softly: "No matter what, they were loyal during their lifetime, so they should be allowed to die in a dignified manner." He then ordered: "Send them to Yuwan Palace."

Yuwan Palace, the bedroom of Concubine Zhaohui.

Song Lianhe turned her head and looked at the elegant man in front of her. Her eyes were full of tenderness and warmth, but he was actually harboring a lot of bad intentions!

Sure enough, the palace does not keep idle people.

There were dozens of corpses, with various causes of death, especially those who committed suicide. The toxins quickly invaded their bodies, and in order not to reveal their identities, their faces would be completely destroyed within an hour, becoming a horrible sight.

Following Zhou Junlin's order, dozens of Golden Feather Guards wrapped the corpse in a shroud, tied it tightly on their backs, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this speed, Shen Fu couldn't help but nod his head, and even boasted to Gu Ha who was standing beside him: "After all, when it comes to handling corpses, you guys are the real deal!"

Gu Ha rolled his eyes at him and didn't want to pay any attention to him.

According to reports from the people in the palace, Concubine Zhao Hui was about to rest when she heard a report that countless corpses "fell from the sky"...

That night, Concubine Zhao Hui fell ill with fright. She could not make an announcement, so she had to order people to secretly carry the bodies out of the palace before daybreak.

But how could such a big commotion be hidden from the public? For a while, people in the palace said all kinds of things. One of them said that this was a punishment from heaven. They must have done something against the will of heaven, so there would be so many corpses at once! It was really scary!

When Chunde found out, he laughed so hard that he fell over.

"Sister, did you hear that? Isn't Concubine Zhao Hui the one who believes in cause and effect the most? This is her 'result'!"

Sitting opposite her was Concubine Qi, holding a hot water bottle in her hand. Even though it was May, she was very afraid of the cold.

Sitting beside Chunde, her temperament was as pure as a chrysanthemum. Even after hearing such a thing, her face did not show any fluctuations. "Dare to do this, except Ziyin and Biewu, I can't think of anyone else."

Chunde laughed enough, picked up the handkerchief and wiped away her tears, "I will tell my sister another good news! Biewu sent someone to report that..." She lowered her voice, "The emperor has been rescued!"

"Oh."

Concubine Qi's reaction was still indifferent, as if whether Emperor Cheng Xiao was there or not, alive or dead, had nothing to do with her.

Seeing her like this, Chunde sighed faintly: "Sister, are you still complaining?"

Concubine Qi did not avoid the question, but looked up at her directly, "Sister, you won't blame me anymore?"

Chunde paused, then lowered his head silently: "How can I not blame him? If it weren't for him, Chaoyan wouldn't have died, and he wouldn't have left Biewu to live a hard life."

"It's the same for my sister." Concubine Qi said bluntly, "If His Majesty hadn't favored Concubine Zhao Hui, my sister wouldn't have gotten so sad and drunk that she overturned the candlestick and burned to death in the palace. Why should I take on my sister's motherly duties? Abandoning my lover and marrying into the palace? It seems like a favor from His Majesty, but I don't care!"

After all these years, this was the first time Chunde saw her lose control of her emotions.

Concubine Qi took a deep breath, slowly calmed down, and said, "So, whether His Majesty comes back or not is irrelevant to me."

Her chief maid Jin Shu was so panicked that she hurriedly tried to stop him, "My queen, be careful with your words!"

"Why should I be so cautious? The Queen may not say anything, but she's cursing me in her heart no less than I am."

Chunde was startled, then he started laughing, "You~"

Gradually, her smile faded, and she slowly said, "That's true."

Who in this harem has never felt resentment or hatred?

Although Concubine Zhao Hui was favored, she also suffered a lot in the palace when she first came to Ling'an. Because of her beauty, she was excluded and framed by the concubines. After several times, she became sensible and learned her lesson. From the domineering Princess Nanchen, she became the peaceful, well-behaved and obedient Concubine Zhao Hui in front of others.

But the result?

The most well-behaved one is actually the most cruel and ruthless.

Whose fault is this?

"Alas, no matter what, for Concubine Zhao Hui and her son, they definitely don't want the emperor to return to the palace."

"So this is the only thing that can bring some comfort."

Concubine Qi hated Emperor Cheng Xiao, but she hated Concubine Zhao Hui and Prince Heng even more! This mother and son had always regarded Zi Yin as a thorn in their side. Although they didn't show it on their faces, they used those dirty tricks in private!

Who would have thought that they could trick the emperor into suddenly appointing a crown prince? How could Concubine Qi not resent this?

Her elder sister had a last wish, which was to see her son ascend the throne. Regardless of right or wrong, she just wanted to help her sister fulfill her wish. At worst, even if the throne was given to the queen's son, Prince Wei, it would be better than Prince Heng! If he ascended the throne, none of them would be able to live in peace.

Just then, there was a noise outside.

Chunde frowned, "Go and see what happened outside?"

"Yes."

After Fang Xiu left, she came back not long after, "Reporting to the Queen, it was Commander Cao."

Soon, Cao Jin strode in.

It turned out that he was following King Qing's orders to lead the royal guards to garrison Kunning Palace.

"Is there something going on outside?"

"Your Highness, His Royal Highness Prince Qing said that no matter what happens, His Royal Highness and I will be there to help. In addition, I have also sent people to look for His Royal Highness Prince Wei, so you don't have to worry."

Chunde was quite moved and nodded repeatedly: "Thank you for your hard work, Commander Cao."

Cao Jin added: "Please ask Concubine Qi to stay in Kunning Palace for a while. This is the intention of His Royal Highness Prince Ling."

"Oh, I see."

As soon as Concubine Qi heard that it was Zhou Junlin's intention, she didn't say anything more.

After Cao Jin left, the two looked at each other and guessed that there might be a palace coup next.

"I have a jar of the finest pear blossom wine, how about we drink a little?"

Concubine Qi nodded and said, "Let Jin Shu cook a few side dishes."

"Haha, that's great. I've heard that Jin Shu next to you is a great cook. I'm in for a treat."

Regardless of whether there were strong winds, tsunamis or earthquakes outside the palace, Chunde and Concubine Qi sat face to face for the first time and drank comfortably. With Zhou Junlin and Zhou Cangyan around, it was useless for them to worry too much. It would be better for them to relax and not cause trouble for the younger generation.

Hearing the laughter coming from the palace, Commander Cao turned his head, his dark eyes full of vigilance. The dozens of corpses sent by Prince Ling might force Concubine Zhao Hui and Prince Heng to take a risky move.
