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

Half an incense stick of time ago.

After Feng Qingluan separated from Xie Jin at Qingfeng Pavilion, she met a person who shouldn't be there, Feng Chun, on her way back to her yard.

Feng Chun blocked her way and looked at her with an ambiguous smile on his face.

Feng Qingluan asked: "What are you doing here?"

Feng Chun said: "Of course I came to see you. I saw everything you did to the King of Chu."

His voice was neither hurried nor slow, with a sense of satisfaction that one was sure of victory.

Feng Qingluan's brows turned cold as she looked at Feng Chun's attire, which should be the uniform worn by the people in the kitchen of the palace.

She remembered hearing people say in Yangzhou when she was a child that Feng Chun was a street thug when he was young. He was best at sneaking around the streets and alleys, stealing things and dealing with people. He was able to sneak into the palace, which showed that he had some skills.

"Now that you've seen it, what do you want?"

Feng Qingluan complained in her heart that she was unlucky tonight. Everything she did was secretly watched by others, and then Feng Chun showed up. It was really troublesome.

Feng Chun paced away from Feng Qingluan. He still remembered that she had kicked him before.

He smiled and said, "I didn't expect that you were so obsessed with the King of Chu, but tonight you used tricks to divorce him. You women are very cunning when it comes to getting a man and abandoning a man. You wanted to dump Xie Yan, but that lady surnamed Di also used tricks to get him. She drugged the wine that the King of Chu drank. The poor King of Chu was played around by two women without knowing it. But from now on, it seems that all three of you got what you wanted. It's my turn next."

He raised one corner of his mouth and looked at Feng Qingluan with shining eyes.

Feng Qingluan didn't say anything. She thought that Xie Yan was drunk and unconscious because she had tampered with the wine she gave him at the banquet. She didn't expect that he later drank the wine given by Di Manli.

It seems that Xie Jin was right. She was too confident in her medicine and overlooked a very important point when allocating the dosage, which was that she treated Xie Yan and Liu Qi as ordinary people.

She forgot that this was in ancient times, and that the two men were highly skilled in martial arts and had internal strength. In order to completely knock them down, the amount of medicine used would be greater than that of ordinary people.

Xie Yan fell into Di Manli's trap. It was possible that Xie Yan could get along with Di Manli tonight without her taking any action. However, if she hadn't asked Xue Zimo to drag Liu Qi away, with Liu Qi's martial arts skills and his loyalty to Xie Yan, Di Manli's plan might not have been realized if she hadn't taken action.

After sorting out the important links in the whole matter, Feng Qingluan thought of another sentence of Xie Jin, "You are very lucky." Did he also know that Di Manli had drugged Xie Yan?

A hint of irony flashed across Feng Qingluan's eyes. The drama tonight was not only about catching an adulterer in bed, but also about the mantis stalking the cicada while the oriole was waiting behind.

Feng Chun had been waiting for Feng Qingluan to speak. Seeing her frown as if she was thinking about something and a smile on her eyes, he became a little angry and threatened in a low voice:

"Feng Qingluan, what are you laughing at? Aren't you afraid that I will tell the King of Chu about what you did?"

Feng Qingluan raised her eyes and looked at the man who had taken great pains to come to her:

"Don't try to threaten me. If you dare to complain, your sneaking into the palace will be exposed. Imagine if someone deliberately sneaked into the palace to get close to the prince and the emperor, I'm afraid you would be killed as an assassin before you even have a chance to open your mouth. But tell me what you want. If I can do it, we can both get what we want without having to go that far."

Feng Chun was frightened after hearing her first words, but after hearing her second words, Feng Chun regained his confidence:

"What I want is very simple. First, I asked Roujing, and she said that she had thought about harming the old lady, but the plan was not carried out. The old lady was not poisoned by her, she was framed. I want you to bring her back to the capital.

Second, I want to bring my son and daughter back to the Marquis' Mansion. They should be fed and clothed the same way as before. The Marquis' Mansion is a large and prosperous place, and adding a few more mouths to feed us is nothing but a piece of cake for them. Are these two requests not too much?"

He looked at Feng Qingluan nervously, worried that Feng Qingluan would disagree, and added:

"If you don't agree, I will report your scheme against the King of Chu to the Emperor. This is a capital crime punishable by beheading. At worst, we will die together!"

His last sentence was said with little confidence, and he himself was afraid.

Feng Qingluan said without thinking: "I can agree to the first condition. If you find evidence that someone framed Chai Roujing, she can overturn the case and return to Beijing. As for letting you return to the Marquis' Mansion, that is impossible.

From the moment I drive you out of the Marquis' Mansion, you and Feng Zheng and others will never step into the gate of the Marquis' Mansion again in your life. I will give you a sum of money, and you can take your children and leave the capital. That money is enough for you to have food and clothing for the rest of your life. Don't show up in front of me in the future."

Feng Chun proposed to return to the Marquis' Mansion, but he knew that this request was impossible to fulfill.

Feng Qingluan said that if she gave him money, he could accept it, but he was dissatisfied with the first condition:

"It's been so long since Roujing's case. Where can I find evidence to overturn the case? Pan is in prison. I can't even see her, let alone accuse her."

"That's your problem. Solve it yourself. This is all I can promise you. It's up to you whether you want to trade or not."

Feng Qingluan said she was leaving, Feng Chun said anxiously:

"Okay, that's it. When will you give me the money?"

Feng Qingluan said: "I will notify you to pick it up after I return to the capital."

Feng Chun breathed a sigh of relief after getting her consent.

He proposed that Chai Roujing come back so that he could hand it over to Feng Qingluan.

Feng Qingluan pushed the blame on him. She couldn't buy the truth about the poisoning even with a thousand taels of silver in the Marquis' Mansion. How could he find the real culprit since he had no power or influence?

But this is an additional condition. Even if it cannot be fulfilled, it doesn't matter. When he gets the money, he will return to Yangzhou with his son and daughter, take a few concubines, and live a comfortable life for the rest of his life.

The matter was settled and Feng Chun walked back.

The night in the palace is much worse than the day, and he was having trouble finding his way back. When he passed by the rockery, he overheard someone talking about the King of Chu and Feng Qingluan. He recognized the voice as Feng Shuyao, and walked closer out of curiosity to take a look. He saw that Feng Shuyao was having an affair with the prince, and was also discussing killing the general's daughter.

Feng Chun was so shocked that he didn't notice the noise made by the stones under his feet. The prince was alert and discovered him. He was a secretive person and dared not reveal his identity. In this way, Xie Heng stabbed his throat from the back of his neck and he died unwillingly.

Feng Shuyao witnessed Feng Chun's tragic death in front of her, and she couldn't help shaking when she returned to the servants' room.

She thought to herself, Third Uncle is dead, it was the Crown Prince who killed him. If she hadn't come to see the Crown Prince tonight, Third Uncle wouldn't have died. When her father knew that his brother was dead, how would she explain to him?

And why did Third Uncle appear in the palace? What was he doing there?

Feng Shuyao's mind was in a mess, and she fell asleep with fear and terror.

The next morning, Liu Qi woke up from the grass.

He covered his head, knowing that he had been tricked, and quickly returned to Songcui Garden.

Seeing that Xie Yan had also woken up and seemed uninjured, he ran over and knelt on the ground, blaming himself, and held the sword in front of Xie Yan with both hands:

"Your Highness, I am incompetent. I was tricked and knocked unconscious last night. Please forgive me!"

Seeing him coming back, Xie Yan said nothing, with a dark face, he drew out his sword and stabbed it into his heart!
