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

Upon hearing the news that Emperor Xia Ming had fainted, Prince Jing came to Chengguang Palace to see him.

Xiang Fei and Ru Fei were in the room. Prince Jing greeted them and looked at Xiang Fei:

"What happened to Father? Why did he fall ill again?"

Xie Jin had ordered people to deal with the queen's body. There were people guarding the main door of Chengguang Hall, but Prince Jing was still unaware of the queen's sudden death.

Xiang Fei said, "Your Majesty has been worrying too much lately. The murderer who persecuted the concubines in Qingliang Terrace and poisoned the Queen has not been caught yet. Your Majesty fell ill because of excessive worry."

Prince Jing asked worriedly, "What did the imperial physician say?"

Xiang Fei said: "The imperial physician said that your majesty's condition is not serious and he will recover if he takes good care of himself."

After visiting Emperor Xia Ming, Prince Jing left the room.

Before leaving, he cast a look at Xiang Fei. Xiang Fei knew that he had something to say, so she found an excuse to go outside.

In the backyard corridor, Prince Jing was waiting for her.

Seeing that no one was following, Xie Ji couldn't help but embrace Xiang Fei and pull her in front of him:

"The situation in the room is very delicate. What happened to my father? And why is the queen not here?"

Xiang Fei said: "I told you not to tell anyone, the queen died suddenly!"

She told Prince Jing about the tragedy in Chengguang Palace.

Xie Ji was shocked. The queen was actually murdered?

Thinking of Emperor Xia Ming falling into a coma again, Xie Ji was thinking in his mind.

His father had vomited blood when he was seriously ill before. Although he recovered for a while, he became weak again not long ago and vomited blood from time to time. He thought this was not normal.

The position of crown prince has not been established yet. He and the King of Chu each have a 50% chance of becoming the crown prince. It seems that he has to plan this matter carefully. If his father suddenly passes away one day, the crown prince left in the will will be the future emperor.

While Xie Ji was thinking about this matter, Xiang Fei had other ideas in mind. She glanced at Xie Ji's expression:

"Your Highness, I want your help with something."

Xie Ji regained consciousness: "What's the matter?"

Xiang Fei's eyes were filled with sadness. "If Your Highness hadn't saved me in Chunyi County, I would have been taken away by bandits and my life would have been in vain. I have always been grateful to Your Highness for saving my life."

Last year, when Xie Ji was traveling in the southwest, he encountered bandits robbing two powerless girls. One of the girls was the Xiang Fei in front of him.

At first sight, Xie Ji fell in love with her.

He drew his sword to help and rescued Liu Ruochu and her maid Ji Shu. He learned that Liu Ruochu was also coming to the capital, so they set off together. Liu Ruochu also fell in love with him, and the two soon fell in love.

Xie Ji confessed his identity and promised to marry Liu Ruochu after returning to Beijing.

However, things went against his wishes. When he happily brought his beloved person into the palace to ask for Concubine Xi's favor, his father, who had not set foot in Concubine Xi's palace for half a year and went to Manyin Pavilion on a whim that day, fell in love with her at first sight.

My mother was just a concubine in the palace and was not favored.

My father went to her palace once every six months. Coincidentally, he brought Ruchu to pay respects to my mother that time, and my father took a liking to Ruchu and made her his concubine.

Whenever Xie Ji thought of this, his heart ached.

Hearing Xiang Fei mention the past, he said nervously:

"What's wrong with you? Did someone make you sad?"

Xiang Fei shook her head: "Your Highness once asked me why I came to the capital, and I said it was to be with Your Highness."

Xie Ji was moved.

Xiang Fei added: "Besides wanting to be with His Highness, there is another reason, which is to come to the capital to avenge my mother!"

Xie Ji was surprised: "I've never heard you talk about this before."

Xiang Fei said: "That is my lifelong wish. My mother was killed by Feng Qingluan. Unfortunately, I am alone and weak. I don't know any martial arts, and I don't have any special skills. Even if I find Feng Qingluan, I can't kill her personally to avenge my mother.

Later, I met Your Highness and wanted to ask for His Majesty's help, but I had to enter the palace and become Your Majesty's concubine. Today, Feng Qingluan killed the Queen Mother, and I thought Your Majesty would sentence her to death, so that I could get my revenge.

But now that His Majesty is in a coma, and Feng Qingluan is protected by His Royal Highness Prince Rong, it is difficult to convict her. This really worries me and I cannot rest in peace."

After listening to Xiang Fei's narration, Xie Ji asked in confusion:

"Why did Feng Qingluan kill your mother?"

Xiang Fei cried with tears in her eyes:

"That was the pain in Ruochu's heart. I don't want to recall it again. Revenge for my mother is my lifelong wish. I have to watch Prince Rong conduct a thorough investigation. In fact, he was just looking for someone to take the blame for Feng Qingluan and let her escape punishment. I am unwilling to accept this."

As she spoke, tears fell like beads from a broken string, and any man who saw her beautiful face would be moved.

Xie Ji wiped the tears from her face.

"Killing Feng Qingluan is your lifelong wish, so I will kill her for you. No matter how much Prince Rong can protect her, Feng Qingluan died in prison. What does it matter if we find out whether she is the murderer or not?"

Xiang Fei was surprised: "Your Highness is willing to help me?"

Xie Ji said: "Everything you want to do, I will help you do it. Feng Qingluan knows some kung fu, so we need to find a powerful person to kill her."

Xiang Fei's eyes rolled under her eyelashes. She didn't expect that Xie Ji would be bewitched by her so quickly.

It turns out that falling in love can make a man stupid the fastest!

"In this case, I have a solution. Taihe Palace is heavily guarded, and the dungeon is even more heavily guarded. Instead of sending someone into the prison to kill Feng Qingluan, it is better to let her escape on her own. Once she comes out alone, we can kill her completely. Even if she manages to escape by chance, we can still charge her with escaping from prison!"

Xie Ji felt that what she said made sense:

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

Xiang Fei asked, "Who is Feng Qingluan close to in the capital? Capture the person she cares about and let her rescue him alone. Feng Qingluan will definitely go to the appointment after getting the news. If you get rid of her, my wish will be fulfilled, and Ruochu will definitely thank Your Highness in her heart."

Xie Ji didn't want Liu Ruchu's thanks, he just wanted her as a person.

He put his arms around Xiang Fei's waist and kissed her on the forehead, saying:

"Leave this to me. Feng Qingluan has a grandmother, but she rarely leaves the mansion. Breaking in would cause too much trouble. However, she has a cousin who has been helping out at the Yun's Restaurant. It won't be a problem to catch him. Just wait for the news of Feng Qingluan's death."

Xiang Fei's eyes were filled with tears, and she said happily:

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your help."

The two talked for a while, but for fear of arousing suspicion, Xiang Fei went back.

When she turned the corridor and came to the yard, she met Concubine Ru watching her from the other side of the yard.

Xiang Fei's expression changed:

"Sister Rufei, are you looking for me?"

Ru Fei looked behind Xiang Fei. She seemed to see a figure flash by. She fixed her eyes and looked over again. There was nothing. She said:

"No, I came out to get some fresh air. You go see His Majesty."

After saying that, she went to the other side.

Xiang Fei stared at her back with a dark look in her eyes.

After Concubine Ru left, Xie Ji came out of the yard and left.

On the morning of the second day, Feng Qingluan sat on a straw mat with her eyes closed to rest. Xie Ying's anxious voice came from the corridor of the prison:

"Feng Qingluan, something happened. Something happened to Huai Yin."

Feng Qingluan opened her eyes and saw Xie Ying leaning on a crutch, supported by Biqing, coming to the door of her cell, with an anxious look on her face.

Feng Qingluan walked over and asked: "Why are you here? What happened to my cousin?"

Xie Ying looked anxious:

"I just got the news that Huai Yin has been kidnapped. The kidnapper specifically asked you to go to Shuiqing Road alone to rescue him at 3:30 pm. If you don't go, the kidnappers will kill Huai Yin. Feng Qingluan, what do you think we should do?"

Feng Qingluan frowned. Yun Huaiyin was caught?

What's going on here?
