Marrying a wife and a concubine together? Wouldn't it be better to divorce and become the queen

After bandaging Xie Yan’s wound, Feng Qingluan returned to Xiaolin Pavilion.

She was also under house arrest. When she was treating Xie Yan's injuries, there were guards following her. When she returned to Xiaolin Pavilion, there were even more guards watching over her.

Feng Qingluan didn't say anything about this, thinking about what happened in Chengguang Palace.

What happened to the Queen in the past two days made her feel as if an invisible hand was playing tricks on them.

Who is the person behind this?

Fragrant Concubine?

Judging from the current situation, the Queen was poisoned, Concubine Ru was under house arrest, and Concubine Xiang benefited the most, and she is also the most suspicious.

But under normal circumstances, Xiang Fei was deeply favored by the Emperor, was in the limelight, and had only been in the palace for more than a month. There was no need for her to act so quickly and kill the Queen.

Xiang Fei is a smart person and she won’t be so impatient.

Could it be Concubine Ru?

Concubine Ru has been fighting with the Queen for so many years, it is possible that she would take her life while the Queen is injured.

Given that there are currently no clear clues, Feng Qingluan is suspicious of everyone.

As she was thinking about this, Xie Jin came to Xiaolin Pavilion. Seeing the guards on duty, he walked into the room with a frown on his face.

Feng Qingluan asked: "How is the investigation into the cause of the accident going?"

Xie Jin said: "There are no useful clues yet."

Apart from knowing that it was a master who caused the collapse of the Qingliang Terrace, the other party did not leave any other clues.

"Did you notice anything unusual on the terrace before the accident?"

Feng Qingluan recalled:

"Ru Fei wanted to hear Xiang Fei play the piano, so she suggested that she go to the stage to play the piano. The incident happened when Xiang Fei was playing on the stage, and there was nothing unusual.

However, Xiang Fei's piano playing can calm people down and help them sleep. The emperor often falls asleep listening to her playing the piano at night. Yesterday, after listening to Xiang Fei's piano playing, it was indeed as the rumors said.

Everyone on the stage fell asleep, everyone was concentrating, no one made a sound or spoke, and then I heard a clear cracking sound of the beam breaking, and then the balcony collapsed. "

If there was anything unusual, Feng Qingluan thought it was only this.

After hearing Feng Qingluan's words, Xie Jin's brows furrowed.

Feng Qingluan said: "Do you also find what I said strange? The sound of Xiang Fei's zither."

Xie Jin shook his head: "It's not possible for now. I understand that the queen was almost poisoned. To prevent other situations from happening again, I have sent more people to guard the palaces, and the Taihe Palace is under martial law.

Today's incident was the second time someone tried to kill the Queen. No matter what, the Queen is the biggest victim. You saved her from death twice. It is very likely that you will be the next target. You should be more careful."

Feng Qingluan said: "Yes, I know."

Xie Jin gave her a few instructions and then left Xiaolin Pavilion.

In the evening, the queen woke up after being detoxified.

Seeing that she finally woke up, Xie Ning said excitedly:

"Mother, you're awake."

She brought the medicine bowl and fed it to the queen.

This time, the Queen's medicine was brought in after being examined by the imperial physician and confirmed to be non-toxic.

Seeing that Xie Ning was worried, the queen asked her what happened.

Xie Ning thought about it and decided to tell him that someone had poisoned her during the day.

"Mother, I believe Feng Qingluan was wrongly accused. She tried her best to save you and would never harm you. She was implicated. There is someone else who wants to harm you. The murderer has not been found yet. I am really worried about your safety."

The queen frowned:

"Feng Qingluan has been wronged in this matter. You should go to Xiaolin Pavilion later and thank her on behalf of your mother."

Xie Ning nodded: "After serving the queen mother, I will leave."

Crimson Purple Pavilion.

Ji Shu helped Xiang Fei clean her hands and said unwillingly:

"Feng Qingluan is really the Queen's lucky star. She can always help her escape from danger! In my opinion, should we get rid of Feng Qingluan first?"

Xiang Fei raised her eyebrows and looked at her:

"How can we get rid of her? This woman is an expert in medicine, so don't even think about poisoning her or using medicine. She is also a skilled martial artist, so if we can't kill her with one strike, it will definitely cause a stir and leave evidence for Xie Jin to investigate."

One of her missions in the capital was to get rid of Feng Qingluan, but she couldn't use conventional methods.

Ji Shu frowned:

"Then how can we kill her?"

Xiang Fei tapped her forehead and said angrily:

"You are stupid. If you want to kill someone, you can't do it yourself. Of course you have to use someone else to kill her. Letting the emperor kill her is the most time-saving and labor-saving way for us.

Last time, your disguise was just to pretend to be a palace maid and stand in front of the medicine furnace, but it caused such a big disturbance. If you become Feng Qingluan and kill the queen, how will things develop?"

Ji Shu was touched by her and immediately understood what she meant. She smiled with eagerness in her eyes:

"Your Majesty is smart. I know what's going on and will take action tonight."

Xiang Fei said, "Before you leave, send someone to invite His Majesty here and tell him that I miss him."

Ji Shu smiled and said, "Yes, Madam."

However, there was no need for Xiang Fei to send anyone to invite him, as Emperor Xia Ming came to the Crimson Purple Pavilion first.

The Queen's poisoning yesterday and today had upset Emperor Xia Ming. He hadn't seen Xiang Fei for a day, and now that he saw the beauty, Emperor Xia Ming was refreshed. He threw all his worries behind him, put his arm around Xiang Fei's shoulders, and praised her with a smile:

"My beloved concubine smells so good. Did you know that I was coming over and specially washed up to wait for me?"

Xiang Fei leaned tenderly in Emperor Xia Ming's arms, revealing a charming and perfect smile:

"I am waiting for your Majesty to arrive every moment. I am not washing and waiting for you on purpose."

The beauty spoke so sweetly that Emperor Xia Ming smiled from ear to ear. He picked up Xiang Fei and threw her on the bed. He could not help but press down on her.

Ji Shu smiled and stepped back, closing the door.

A moment later, on the roof of the Crimson Purple Pavilion, a light black figure avoided the eyes and ears of the guards and headed towards the Chengguang Palace.

Following the Queen's instructions, Xie Ning went to Xiaolin Pavilion to find Feng Qingluan.

"Miss Feng, it was thanks to you that we saved our mother these two times. Today, it was our father who went too far. I will ask him to investigate the case thoroughly, catch the real culprit, and clear your name."

Feng Qingluan said: "Thank you, Princess."

Xie Ning said gratefully, "I should thank you. After my mother woke up, she felt guilty and grateful to you, so she asked me to convey her feelings."

Feng Qingluan said: "The Queen's health and well-being are related to the common people, and it is what I, your servant, should do."

Xie Ning smiled and said, "This princess and my mother will remember your kindness. If you have any difficulties in the future, feel free to come to me."

After saying that, Xie Ning returned to Chengguang Hall.

As soon as she entered the palace, she heard Nanny Yuan shouting from the Queen's bedroom:

"Ah! Madam..."

Xie Ning's heart sank and she ran back to the bedroom, where she saw the queen lying on the bed with a deep bloodstain on her neck, bleeding profusely, and the sheets and floor were all covered in splattered blood.

At the foot of the bed, Nanny Yuan lay in a pool of blood, her life or death unknown.

Xie Ning's pupils were startled, and she rushed over in panic to cover the queen's wound, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably:

"Someone, call the imperial physician, call the imperial physician quickly!"

She used trembling fingers to feel the queen's breath, but she was no longer breathing.

The Queen Mother is dead?

Xie Ning couldn't bear the blow and fainted with a scream.

The guards and maids rushed in and saw the tragic scene in the inner hall. They were so frightened that they screamed:

"The queen has been murdered, hurry up and inform His Majesty, the queen has been murdered, hurry up and inform His Majesty!"
