Marrying a wife and a concubine together? Wouldn't it be better to divorce and become the queen
Chapter 431: Meeting Xiang Fei and inducing her to confess
After learning about Emperor Xia Ming's situation, Feng Qingluan thought for a moment and asked Concubine Ru:
"Your Majesty, did anything special happen during the day and night that His Majesty was in a coma?"
Ru Fei said: "Anything special? Nothing. I just heard from Yuan Chao that Xiang Fei played the zither twice to help His Majesty sleep. Even when His Majesty fell asleep, Xiang Fei still played the zither, saying that she was worried about His Majesty and wanted to relieve her worries."
抚琴?
The sound of the piano again.
The sound of Xiang Fei's piano can make people fall asleep, so it is a bit strange that Emperor Xia Ming continued to play it while he was unconscious.
She said to Ru Fei:
"Your Majesty, your Majesty was not in good health before. He has been sleeping soundly for the past two days to replenish his energy. I will give you acupuncture and you will wake up."
The heavy stone in Ru Fei's heart fell away.
"Is that so? Then you can do it for His Majesty."
Feng Qingluan gave acupuncture to Emperor Xia Ming.
He thought that Xiang Fei must have noticed that Emperor Xia Ming was poisoned. She had been making love with him day and night, so she had some understanding of his physical condition. She used some method, perhaps playing the piano, to aggravate the spread of the toxin in Emperor Xia Ming's body.
But can listening to the piano have this effect?
Feng Qingluan couldn't be sure, but she didn't rule out this possibility.
There are so many martial arts secrets in the world, so it is not impossible that the sound of the piano has something special.
However, Xiang Fei didn't know that she was the one who poisoned Emperor Xia Ming. She wanted to wake Emperor Xia Ming up so that she could remove some of the poison from him.
After giving Emperor Xia Ming acupuncture, Feng Qingluan said:
"Your Majesty, His Majesty will probably wake up in a quarter of an hour. There is nothing serious going on."
Ru Fei patted her chest in fear and said happily:
"That's good. Thank you for your hard work. Go and accompany Zhaoyang when you have time."
Because of his leg injury, Zhaoyang has been lying in bed for the past two days. He cannot walk around and must be feeling suffocated.
Feng Qingluan said, "Yes, Madam."
Feng Qingluan and Xie Jin came outside.
"If Emperor Xia Ming can wake up, our plan can be implemented."
Xie Jin said: "Let's change the plan. We need to make Emperor Xia Ming, Xiang Fei, and Prince Jing fall into our trap without knowing it. If there is a flaw in one of the links, Xiang Fei will definitely be alert. That woman is smart and cunning, and she may not fall into the trap obediently."
Feng Qingluan asked: "What do you want to do?"
Xie Jin said: "Ji Shu is dead, so this witness can't be used. You go find Xiang Fei and tell her that Ji Shu betrayed her. Prod Xiang Fei to admit that she killed the queen. Bring Emperor Xia Ming into the space and let him hear Xiang Fei's words with his own ears."
Feng Qingluan's eyes lit up:
"This method is feasible. Doesn't Xiang Fei want to kill me? I am alone with her in a room, and she is likely to confess. In addition, when Ru Fei saw Xiang Fei and Prince Jing that day, a woman was chasing Ru Fei. Maybe there are experts hidden in Xiang Fei's palace. She may attack me, and Emperor Xia Ming will hear this clearly."
Xie Jin said: "This is exactly what I am worried about. You should act according to circumstances and hide yourself in times of crisis."
Feng Qingluan nodded: "Yes, I know."
"After you finish talking to Concubine Xiang, I will arrange for Prince Jing to enter the palace. You will remain hidden in the space so that Emperor Xia Ming can hear your conversation."
Feng Qingluan understood what Xie Jin meant and said with a smile:
"Okay, everything is up to you."
After discussing countermeasures, Feng Qingluan returned to Emperor Xia Ming's bedroom.
Emperor Xia Ming woke up, and Concubine Ru sat in front of the bed and fed him medicine.
"Where's Xiang Fei? Why isn't she here?"
The first thing Emperor Xia Ming asked when he woke up was about that woman, which made Concubine Ru unhappy.
"It's too late. I have ordered Xiang Fei to return to the palace to rest. Your Majesty wants to see her. I will arrange for someone to invite her over?"
Emperor Xia Ming was still very tired. When he woke up this time, he clearly felt that he had become much heavier and was unable to do anything:
"No, it's so late now, let's talk about it tomorrow. You have been guarding me for a long time, your eyes are all black and blue, my beloved concubine, you have worked hard."
After receiving the praise from Emperor Xia Ming, Concubine Ru smiled:
"Serving Your Majesty is what I should do. It's not hard."
Emperor Xia Ming still felt tired after drinking the medicine, so he asked Concubine Ru to leave.
Ru Fei came out, Feng Qingluan asked:
"My lady, is His Majesty awake?"
Concubine Ru looked inside the palace and said, "She's awake. She just drank the medicine."
Feng Qingluan said, "Your Majesty, even though His Majesty has woken up, it is not advisable to worry too much. Some things can be discussed after he is well again, especially tonight, so let him have a good rest."
Ru Fei understood that Feng Qingluan was talking about Xiang Fei and Prince Jing, and said:
"Don't worry, I won't tell His Majesty about this for the time being."
Emperor Xia Ming sent all the palace servants out.
He just woke up, but he was not sleepy at the moment, thinking about what had happened recently.
He had to find a suitable time to announce the news of the queen's sudden death to the world, and also to find a way to appease the queen's maternal family.
Former Prime Minister Li Zheng, this is not an easy matter to deal with.
Emperor Xia Ming was thinking about these things when suddenly a strange fragrance wafted through the air, and he fell into a deep sleep again.
Feng Qingluan entered the room through the window and brought Emperor Xia Ming into the space.
Then he went to the Crimson Purple Pavilion to find Concubine Xiang.
Xiang Fei was ordered to be under house arrest, and she has been staying there obediently for the past two days.
After receiving the news from Jin Shuo, they fabricated two cases outside and assassinated Xue Ming and King Zhenbei.
Although they created chaos in the capital, two of Jin Shuo's men died when they assassinated Xue Ming.
Xie Jin knew the Karen people very well. If he examined the two bodies, he would definitely discover their identities.
Then Xie Jin will investigate in the direction of the Karen assassin.
No matter what Xie Jin found out, it would at least take up most of his energy.
After all, spies from the enemy country are lurking in the capital and committing major crimes. As the highest authority besides Emperor Xia Ming, Xie Jin will never let such things continue to happen.
During this period, she caught Feng Qingluan as soon as possible.
If not, just kill Emperor Xia Ming and cause unrest in Da Xia.
Knowing that the queen and the emperor had died one after another, no one knew how many countries around Daxia would be ready to make moves. Even if Xie Jin was a good fighter, he couldn't take care of them all.
Her ultimate mission is to destroy Daxia, kill King Rong and avenge the Karen Kingdom!
Xiang Fei made up her mind that when she had no way out, killing Emperor Xia Ming would be her last choice!
Xiang Fei was thinking about her next plan.
The palace servants reported:
"My lady, Miss Feng is here."
What is she here to do?
Xiang Fei said, "Let her in."
Feng Qingluan walked into the bedroom, and Xiang Fei put on her usual gentle face:
"Miss Feng, what do you want from me so late at night?"
Feng Qingluan looked at the palace servants serving her.
Xiang Fei said, "Everyone, leave."
All the palace servants went out.
Only Xiang Fei and Feng Qingluan were left in the room.
Feng Qingluan went straight to the point:
"Xiang Fei, Ji Shu confessed who ordered her to kill the queen."
Xiang Fei's gentle expression changed slightly: "Oh, who is it?"
Feng Qingluan smiled meaningfully:
"Ji Shu is from the Crimson Purple Pavilion, and you are her master. Her murder was naturally ordered by Concubine Xiang, and you are the one who testified against her."
Xiang Fei smiled slyly:
"I didn't order her to do this. I heard that she insisted in the dungeon that it was Concubine Ru who ordered her to do this. How come it became that she was ordered by me after only two days?
I'm afraid Miss Feng and Prince Rong forced her to confess and frame me, right?"
Feng Qingluan chuckled, "There's no one else here, so you don't need to quibble anymore. Let's not beat around the bush. Ji Shu admitted that you asked her to pretend to be me and frame the queen. She confessed everything. When His Majesty wakes up, we can report the case. By then, Concubine Xiang will be charged with the crime of murdering the mother of the nation and exterminating her entire clan!"
Xiang Fei wanted to say something, but Feng Qingluan continued:
"You don't need to make excuses anymore, your intention to kill me is not just about framing me for killing the queen!
Prince Jing loves Concubine Xiang, right? You took advantage of his love for you and instigated him to bribe the Jianghu assassin Ghost Blade outside the palace to kidnap my cousin Yun Huaiyin and force me to rescue him.
I was in prison at that time, and you wanted to charge me with escaping from prison for fear of punishment. Unfortunately, Prince Rong helped me rescue Yun Huaiyin, and learned from Gui Ren that it was Prince Jing who ordered me to do so.
The two of you have met privately in the palace many times and were very affectionate. This has been witnessed by witnesses. King Jing obeys you in every way. You are worried that Ji Shu will betray you, so you instruct King Jing to help you get rid of Ji Shu.
Prince Jing was very smart. He went to Chengguang Palace to find Princess Qingyang, instigated Ji Shu to avenge her mother's murder, and asked her to go to the dungeon to assassinate Ji Shu.
Originally, Ji Shu didn't want to confess, but Prince Jing helped her. Princess Qingyang almost killed Ji Shu, but I rescued her. She was disheartened and testified that it was you who ordered her to kill the queen.
Speaking of which, Ji Shu was able to testify against you thanks to King Jing's accidental help, and was able to find out that you were the mastermind behind the murder of the queen.
Everything is out in the open, what else does Concubine Xiang have to say?"
Feng Qingluan figured out the situation and began to lure Xiang Fei into the trap.
Xiang Fei looked outside the door and did not see any guards or palace maids.
In order to talk to her about this matter, Feng Qingluan sent everyone outside away.
There were only the two of them here, and Xiang Fei didn't want to hide anymore, she sneered:
"You know everything. Are you here tonight to show off?"
Feng Qingluan's voice turned cold:
"Why did you kill the queen? Was it just to frame me?"
