Furong stood aside and watched her queen's furious expression, and she felt anxious as well.

When Concubine Shu was in the Zhao Mansion before she got married, she was raised with great care and love. How could she have ever suffered such an injustice as she is now?

But since Lu Qingqing was appointed as a concubine, everything changed.

Furong couldn't bear to see the empress getting anxious, so she hurried forward and gently stroked Concubine Shu's back, trying to calm her down.

However, when Concubine Shu got angry, she was just like a naughty child. No matter who he was, she found anyone else annoying except Li Xuansheng who came to comfort her.

"Go away!"

Concubine Shu pushed Furong's hand away heavily.

Furong lost her balance and slipped to the ground. As luck would have it, her white palm just happened to press down on the broken porcelain pieces, leaving a bloody mark instantly.

Fleur gasped in pain.

In the past, Concubine Shu would have rushed forward to check Furong's injuries, but at some point, she began to become irritable and ruthless.

Concubine Shu glanced at Furong, who was sitting on the ground, with disdain.

"Useless thing! Get out of here now!"

When Furong heard this, her heart suddenly tightened.

Helpless tears welled up in my eyes, ready to burst out in the next second.

But even if Concubine Shu lost her temper with her, she felt that it was her own queen who was anxious. If the queen was not favored, it was because she was incompetent as a servant!

Furong hardened her heart and pulled out the porcelain shard that had pierced her hand. The blood dyed the white porcelain red, which was particularly eye-catching.

Regardless of her injuries, she still tried her best to give advice to Concubine Shu and quickly calm her down.

"Don't worry, your majesty. There will always be a time when the emperor will get tired of Lu Qingqing."

"You have been favored by the emperor since entering the palace. The emperor will always think of you."

However, as soon as Furong finished speaking, Shufei became furious, like Sun Wukong after hearing the tight hoop curse from Tang Monk. She frowned and cursed.

"It's so annoying! It's so annoying!"

"Are you still of any use? How dare you use such words to perfunctorily deal with me!"

"Before, seducing the emperor would only make me wear new clothes and change my jewelry, but now, you dare to make me wait in vain!"

"Get out of here! If you can't think of a way to win my favor, don't come back!"

Seeing that her persuasion was useless, Furong wiped the tears from her eyes and hurriedly left the door. Before leaving, she did not forget to pick up the porcelain pieces scattered on the ground.

At this time, Concubine Shu was the only one left in the huge room.

She leaned alone on the chaise longue, looking at the bright red bloodstain on the blue carpet. The pride that had supported her for so long suddenly collapsed.

Concubine Shu hugged her arms tightly and wrapped them around herself, as if only in this way could she feel a little bit of security.

She somewhat regretted her attitude towards Furong just now.

After all, I have been with Furong for so many years, and just now I couldn't control my emotions and said such harsh words to her.

However, Shufei's guilt only lasted for a moment.

In an instant, her heart was completely devoured by the huge hatred caused by Lu Qingqing.

Suddenly, she felt a little regretful.

I regret the last incident with the palace dress. My methods were not cruel enough.

It was just some Rhodiola juice sprinkled on the palace dress. It would have been fine if it was a deadly poison.

In the next few days, Li Xuansheng would occasionally visit Concubine Xian in between handling government affairs.

But more often he chose to look for Lu Qingqing. He was always nostalgic for the pavilion of love that he had built with his own hands.

But every time he went there, there was always Lu Panpan surrounding him like a bee, and Li Xuansheng always had to rack his brains to get rid of her.

Not only Lu Panpan, but also Concubine Shu was equally unwilling. She tried every possible way to get into Li Xuansheng's sight.

The Ouxie Courtyard and the Wutong Garden are separated by only a wall. Whenever Li Xuansheng visited the Ouxie Courtyard, Concubine Shu would visit from time to time.

For example, at dinner time, she personally delivered several exquisite dishes. Or, she deliberately asked her maid to say that she was not feeling well in front of Li Xuansheng, hoping to attract Li Xuansheng to visit.

Shufei succeeded a few times occasionally.

Once or twice, Li Xuansheng was willing to give face to Concubine Shu and go to visit her.

However, because he had used the excuse of illness so many times, Li Xuansheng refused to even listen to the report from Concubine Shu's maid and sent her away directly.

Every night, Concubine Shu always lay in bed alone, unable to sleep. She couldn't help but imagine the erotic scene of Li Xuansheng and Lu Qingqing making love next door.

The more I thought about it, the angrier I got, and I couldn’t sleep every night.

She looked at the dark circles under her eyes in the mirror, and suddenly a bold idea popped into her mind.

Concubine Shu called Furong and handed her a letter from home.

"Send this letter and make sure it reaches your father."

Furong thought it was just an ordinary family letter, but what she didn't know was that the letter said that Concubine Shu had asked her father to send a secret guard.

She wants to assassinate Lu Qingqing.

After sending the letter, Concubine Shu felt happier the more she thought about it, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.

Since I can't win Lu Qingqing's favor, I might as well get rid of her.

Soon, the Zhao family received a letter from Concubine Shu.

Zhao Ning sat alone in his study and opened the letter. When he finished reading the contents of the letter silently, he took a breath.

He was a little shocked.

I wonder when his always spoiled daughter became so vicious?

He wondered in his heart, maybe this time, just like before, it was Furong's idea?

After all, Zhao Rongyuan grew up under his eyes. In his eyes, his daughter has always been innocent, lovely and cute, so even if she has a little temper, it is not a big deal.

This was the first time that Concubine Shu wanted him to take someone's life.

However, he had never heard of anyone wanting to take someone's life.

The road is clear...

Zhao Ning kept repeating the name.

He originally thought that his daughter's most hated enemy was the Queen, Concubine Xian or Concubine Zhuang, or some noble concubine who was in the limelight.

Unexpectedly, he was just a noble person!

He was a little curious about how powerful this noble man was that he would let his daughter be ruthless next time.

However, since his daughter has this request, Zhao Ning is willing to satisfy it.

After all, he had originally planned to assassinate Li Xuansheng during this autumn hunt.

Li Xuansheng deployed new people in the court and reshuffled key departments, cutting off Zhao Ning's financial resources and leaving him caught in a dilemma between the emperor and the queen mother.

If he did not rebel against Li Xuansheng, he would only be sorry to the Queen Mother.

In this case, why not join forces with the Queen Mother to kill Li Xuansheng!

He really wanted to write about his plan in his reply to his daughter. After Li Xuansheng died, it didn't matter whether this nobleman was killed or not.

However, he didn't want to make his daughter worry about him, so he promised in his reply.

During the autumn hunt, assassinating a nobleman is a matter of course.
