I kicked out my vicious husband and married his great-uncle

It’s Gao Mingche.

Seeing Cui Shuyan and Princess Heshuo, he asked anxiously, "How is the Queen Mother?"

"He's still in a coma, but his life is not in danger for now. I just don't know when he will wake up."

"Okay, I understand. Thank you both for your help. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

After saying that, Gao Mingche staggered away.

The queen did not wake up until the evening of the next day.

Even though she woke up, she was still very weak. The first thing she asked when she opened her eyes was: "Where's Che'er? Is he okay?"

"The Fifth Prince is fine, he only suffered minor injuries."

"Ah That's good."

The queen did not ask any more questions.

After the queen woke up, she quickly moved back to the palace.

Knowing that the queen needed to rest during this period, Cui Shuyan did not go into the palace to disturb her.

However, in the next few days, she soon learned some news from Xie Xingyuan.

After Concubine Xian was arrested, all the people related to her were investigated.

The Lin family is also involved in this.

The Lin family had been providing money to Concubine Xian during this period. After the truth was revealed, the entire Lin family was sentenced to execution.

Originally, if Lin Xinrou was still Xie Shaohang's concubine, she could have escaped this disaster.

Because the sin does not extend to a married woman.

But she had already been issued a concubine certificate and was no longer a concubine, so this time, she could not escape.

As for the Lin family’s property, all of it will be confiscated.

"What will happen to Concubine Xian?"

Xie Xingyuan shook his head: "I don't know yet. After catching them, His Majesty's people took Consort Xian and the Sixth Prince away."

Now that the person has been taken away by His Majesty, it will be difficult to contact him again.

Cui Shuyan was wondering when to go to the palace to find out the news, but the next day she received a message from the Queen asking her to enter the palace.

Therefore, Cui Shuyan asked someone to prepare some high-quality tonics and took them with her to the palace to visit the queen.

After not seeing her for a few days, the queen looked better and her complexion was rosier, but she was still a little weak.

"Your Highness has greeted the Queen."

"No need to be polite. Shuyan, come and sit down."

"Yes."

After sitting down, Cui Shuyan was just guessing why the Queen asked her to come when she heard the Queen say, "Shuyan, thank you."

Cui Shuyan raised her head and looked at the queen in astonishment.

The queen smiled faintly: "When I was controlled by Concubine Xian, I was thinking that I might not have the chance to thank you in person in this lifetime. Unexpectedly, God gave me this opportunity. Shuyan, thank you so much."

At the end of her words, the queen's eyes were filled with tears.

"Your Highness, your words are too polite. I am also a mother. Since I have some suspicions, I cannot do nothing. Fortunately, I have survived all the hardships and the people I cherish most are by my side. There is nothing better than this."

"Yes, there is nothing better than this. Shuyan, I am weak and can't say much. I asked you to come here today, not only to thank you, but also to ask you to help me do something."

"Please tell me, Queen, I will do my best to do whatever I can."

"The virtuous concubine has been arrested. She is a concubine and I should be in charge of her. So, His Majesty asked me to deal with her. But you see, I am in such a bad condition now. I really can't do such a thing. So, I would like you to deal with her."

"Me?" Cui Shuyan was extremely confused.

Although she would be happy to see it happen, it seemed strange that the Queen had given her the task.

Even if the queen is weak, she can order others to do it, and it doesn't necessarily have to be her.

"I know that you have a personal grudge against her. As for what it is, I don't know, and I don't want to ask. But, since there is a personal grudge, go and complain."

"Empress, don't you want to take revenge yourself?"

"Of course I do. But I want to give you this opportunity even more. Just consider it as my gratitude to you. Although this gratitude seems insignificant compared to the kindness you have shown me."

"Your Majesty, the Queen, is my humble servant." Cui Shuyan bowed deeply as she spoke.

The Queen trusted Cui Shuyan very much and asked Qingyu to take her directly to the Ministry of Punishment.

The cell where Concubine Xian was imprisoned was at the innermost part.

After sending them there, Qingyu handed the tray to Shiliu and said politely, "My Lady Princess, thank you for your help."

Cui Shuyan nodded slightly and walked towards the depths of the cell.

As early as when she took the first step, Cui Shuyan's mind emerged with the scene of Ze'er's death in the previous life.

That is truly heart-wrenching pain.

But at that time she didn't know that the source of all her suffering was the noble concubine who was high up in the palace. She lived in seclusion in the deep palace, but she pushed her step by step into the abyss.

But in this life, she knew.

He also made a great ambition to bring down Concubine Xian one day.

So, she first cut off the business of Duke Dingguo's Mansion, leaving Concubine Xian with no money and being constrained in every way.

He also risked his life to enter the He family, step by step to find out the truth about the He family having no children, thus gradually uncovering the conspiracy of Concubine Xian.

Not long ago, they figured out the truth about why Concubine Xian replaced Gao Mingche, and cooperated with the Queen, gradually forcing Concubine Xian to lose her sense of proportion and make a big mistake.

Thus, this high and mighty virtuous concubine became a pitiful prisoner.

Finally, Cui Shuyan stood outside Concubine Xian's cell and looked at her quietly.

The cell is not big, with earth walls on three sides and only the outside is surrounded by wooden fences, so you can see inside through the gaps.

There was no bed in the cell, just a thin layer of straw.

Concubine Xian was squatting in a corner of the cell, her left sleeve was empty, and her gorgeous clothes had long been soaked with the blood from her broken arm, and the original color could not be seen.

Not far from her, there was a pool of dirt.

This is the method used by the Ministry of Punishment.

Anyone who entered the prison cell of the Ministry of Punishment had to eat, drink, defecate and urinate in the same place, without even any shelter.

Anyone who enters here will completely lose their dignity.

Without dignity, people become useless.

Look, in just a few days, the arrogant and proud Concubine Xian became like this.

Cui Shuyan whispered, "Shi Liu, get someone to come and clean this place up. It smells so bad."

Hearing Cui Shuyan's voice, Concubine Xian looked up suddenly.

She looked at Cui Shuyan warily and asked in a sharp voice: "Cui Shuyan, what are you going to do?"

Cui Shuyan said nothing, but just admired Concubine Xian's shivering body. After the people from the Ministry of Punishment had cleaned up the inside, she walked in and looked down at the frightened Concubine Xian.

Afterwards, Cui Shuyan stopped about five steps away from Concubine Xian, sat on the chair that Shi Liu had brought for her, and said slowly, "Feng Lianruo, let's play a game where I ask you questions and you answer them, okay?"

"Cui Shuyan, what on earth do you want to do?"

"I told you, I want to play a game with you."

"I don't want to play! Isn't the maid behind you holding poisoned wine, a dagger, and white silk? Any one of them will do, just give me a quick death!"

Cui Shuyan smiled coldly: "It's impossible to have a good time. As for whether you play or not, it doesn't matter. Because I am just informing you, not discussing with you. Now, my first question is, after I just married Xie Shaohang, who came up with the idea of ​​making me pregnant with Xie Xingyuan's child?"
