Lian Fei was seen holding a bright yellow thing in her hand with a nervous expression. Only when she saw that it was them did she breathe a sigh of relief.

"Why did you steal the imperial edict?" Qin Changge let her go and asked.

Does this woman have any brains? She should know her limits when being willful. "This is a heinous crime that will punish all of your clan!

"I, I didn't steal it! I just took it out to take a look." As she said that, she opened the cabinet door and put the imperial edict inside.

There is no evidence now.

She just wanted to provoke Jiang Lan, and she absolutely could not stand by and watch someone drag her into this.

"Empress Lian, tell me, if we hand you over to the emperor, will you be torn into pieces by five horses..." Hua Jianli threatened.

Lian Fei then noticed Hua Jianli who was watching the show on the side. She put her hands on her hips and said, "Hua Jianli, don't try to scare me. My grandfather was a veteran of three dynasties who made countless contributions to the Qin Dynasty. He is blessed by my ancestor..."

"Enough!" Hua Jianli interrupted her boasting, "Empress Lian, of course I know that your family has three generations of meritorious officials, and naturally you have a say in the court, but you shouldn't be so willful! Just the crime of stealing the imperial edict is enough to wipe out the three generations of meritorious service of your Lian family, do you believe it?"

Lian Fei was stunned for a moment. She really didn't know this?

When she saw Qin Changge nod, she realized the seriousness of the situation. Fear began to surge in her heart, eroding her heart bit by bit...

"I, I just..." She didn't think so much at the time. When she heard that the emperor had drafted an imperial edict but hadn't issued it, she wanted to use it to scare Jiang Lan and let her know how powerful she was. However, if she committed a huge mistake because of this, it would be wrong of her.

"No need to say more, let's go to the Yangxin Palace and talk to the emperor clearly, right?" Qin Changge said calmly.

"Go to the Yangxin Palace!" Concubine Lian was stunned.

Qin Changge said again: "Shouldn't you explain it clearly?"

Since Concubine Lian refuses to listen to Lord Lian's words, as a junior, he doesn't mind helping the Lord Lian to teach this disobedient granddaughter a lesson.

"No! I don't want to go! I won't go!"

When she heard that the two were going to take her to see the emperor, Concubine Lian gritted her teeth and said...

"I just want to teach Jiang Lan a lesson. She was the one who tripped me up in the first place. Now she's in trouble. If I don't take this opportunity to beat her when she's down, when will I? I also want her to feel the pain of being pushed down by others when she's down."

Jiang Lan used to rely on her status as a royal concubine and never took other people seriously.

However, when she learned that Jiang Lan was pregnant, she couldn't bear it...

She had also been pregnant.

However, the child miscarried in her womb for no apparent reason when she was six months old.

No one knew how much pain she was in at that time.

So she can understand a mother's love for her child.

Jiang Lan was pregnant, and she actually had mixed feelings. On the one hand, she wanted to kill her, but on the other hand, she felt sorry for what happened to her.

I didn't feel sorry for Jiang Lan herself, but for the child in her belly. I almost became a mother myself, and I didn't want others to fall into the same despair as her...

At this time, the eunuch who was guarding the imperial study came from not far away with his trousers held up. As soon as he arrived, he saw Qin Changge in red. He cried out inwardly that something was wrong and went out to the toilet. In the time it took for Prince Che to arrive,

Needless to say, he must have come to see the emperor. He didn't care what happened inside. Reporting to the emperor was the most important thing.

"The Queen has already taken action!" Hua Jianli asked.

"Well, I just came from the cold palace. Jiang Lan's food was poisoned. I have already warned her. As for whether she believes it or not, that is her own business."

"Did you also send away the guards here?" Qin Changge asked.

"Um……"

At this moment, the lights outside were suddenly lit and footsteps came closer and closer.

The man who came was none other than the Qin Emperor Xuanyuan Linyuan. He walked with big strides and his imperial demeanor displayed extraordinary dominance.

Behind him was the smiling Eunuch Hai. The emperor's steps were a bit too big, so he could only jog to keep up.

The fear in Lian Fei's eyes suddenly became more apparent under his gaze.

"Your Majesty..." After several people saluted him, Eunuch Hai also leaned over to greet Qin Changge, "Prince Che!"

In the palace, everyone is used to calling him Prince, but outside the palace, he still prefers others to call him Lord Qin.

The title of Crown Prince is just a symbol of status, while the title of Lord is a recognition of his ability.

After Eunuch Hai finished his greetings, he saw Concubine Lian next to him and leaned over to her again, "Madam Lian."

Haili was wondering what Concubine Lian was doing in the imperial study.

Xuanyuan Linyuan stood in front of Lian Fei with a cold expression, "What are you doing here?"

Someone just said that Changge had arrived and was waiting in the imperial study, so he hurried here. But what was Concubine Lian doing here?

"Concubine..."

Before Concubine Lian could answer, the emperor looked at Hua Jianli again, "Girl from the Hua family? Why are you in the palace?"

"Your Majesty, she came here with me!" Qin Changge replied.

Hua Jianli calmed down and bowed, "Your Majesty!"

The emperor hummed softly, then turned his gaze to Concubine Lian, "What about you?"

The emperor asked again, then came to his seat, and Qin Changge sat down below him.

Hua Jianli stood behind Qin Changge and gave Lian Fei a helpless smile.

Concubine Lian thought the emperor had forgotten her, but he remembered her again. She covered her face with her hands and grimaced, "I... your concubine, yes, I am, I came here with Hua Jianli!"

Ok?

Several pairs of eyes turned to her at the same time.

Lian Fei's brain was also quick, and she found an excuse in a moment, "Your Majesty, I was taking a walk to digest my food, but who knew that Hua Jianli would suddenly appear in my sight. Your Majesty should not have forgotten that it was Hua Jianli who said some specious words to me. I was falsely accused of drugging someone and almost died. When I met Hua Jianli again, how could I let her get away, so I followed her here..."

"Your Majesty will not forget that he still owes me a clear name, will he? Your Majesty, you must make Hua Jianli give me an explanation today!" Concubine Lian became more and more excited as she spoke.

It looked like a tiger with its teeth pulled out, ferocious but lacking in momentum.

The emperor held his forehead and asked, "What do you want?"

"I..." Lian Fei was stunned by the question. She didn't want to do anything. Just let me go back. I can sleep well thanks to you.

As for Jiang Lan, just assume that she has eaten too much.

The emperor took the time to glare at Qin Changge: Why did you bring Hua Jianli into the palace if there was nothing wrong?

"Did I forget who came in first? Or was it Concubine Lian who came in first?" Hua Jianli looked at the closet and reminded Concubine Lian that we have something on you...

"Hmph! Hua Jianli, I have always been a person of high moral character and have won people over with my virtue. Let's just forget about what happened in the past. Just remember my kindness in the future!" Lian Fei said arrogantly.

Hua Jianli smiled, "Since your Majesty is so generous, Hua Jianli would like to thank you!"

"You're smart!" Lian Fei pursed her lips.

Since their personal grudges had been resolved, the emperor didn't want to ask any more questions.

He looked at Qin Changge, "Changge, why are you here so late?"

In fact, the emperor could guess a little. Who else could it be if not Minister Jiang?
