Qianyue didn't understand why, but still followed Jiang Wange's instructions.

When Concubine Shu learned that Jiang Wange came to see her, she was very surprised and then asked someone to invite her in.

"I am glad to see you, sister Huifei. What advice do you have for me?"

"It's not really a guide, I just have something I want to talk to Sister Shufei about. Can we talk alone?"

Concubine Shu was stunned for a moment, then asked Rou'er to go out. Jiang Wange glanced at Qianyue, and Qianyue followed her out.

After the two little palace maids left, Concubine Shu sat down with Jiang Wange.

"Sister Xi Huifei, please speak frankly if you have anything to say."

"Since Sister Shufei has said so, I won't argue any further. I just want to ask you one question: are you Shufei or the late Xia Qingqian?"

When Jiang Wange asked this question, he stared straight into Concubine Shu's eyes!

No, it should be said that it was Xia Qingqian’s eyes.

Xia Qingqian didn't know where she had been exposed and was still trying to remain calm.

"Sister, I don't know what you mean. How could you be Xia Qingqian? Xia Qingqian died a long time ago, and her body must have decayed by now."

After saying that, Xia Qingqian gave Jiang Wange a faint smile and refused to admit her identity.

"Don't be so quick to deny it. Even if you deny it, I can still feel that you are not Shufei."

Hearing this, Jiang Wange also smiled, knowing very well that she would not get any positive results if she came to question Xia Qingqian today. After all, stealing and murdering the concubine, no matter which one, was enough to make Xia Qingqian lose her head.

"Then sister, please tell me why you think my sister is Xia Qingqian?"

Xia Qingqian curled her lips and smiled.

Jiang Wange knew that this meant that she was being told to come clean, so she no longer hid anything and said to her:

"You hid it very well, but you ignored Concubine Shu's hatred towards me. She doesn't even bother to pretend to hate me. Every time she sees me, she wants to slash me with her eyes. How can she sincerely send blessings? Moreover, the first time you called me 'Sister Xihuifei' yesterday made me feel that you and Xia Qingqian are simply overlapping, and my suspicions in my heart became more and more apparent."

After Jiang Wange finished speaking, he looked at Xia Qingqian, only to see that the smile on her lips became even wider.

"Sister, you are extremely intelligent. I finally understand why you are the only one who has received the emperor's favor."

"What you mean by that is that you admit it!"

Jiang Wange was greatly shocked. She didn't expect Xia Qingqian to directly agree with what she had just said. She was really so bold!

Xia Qingqian smiled calmly, with a somewhat indifferent attitude:

"I've been seen through by my sister. If I continue to act, I'll become a clown. Besides, my sister didn't want to expose me in front of other people, right?"

Xia Qingqian said with certainty.

Now it was Jiang Wange's turn to be stunned, not knowing at all that Xia Qingqian had seen through his actions.

She took a deep breath and then asked:

"Who else knows about this? So the person who died was actually Concubine Shu, right?"

"That's right, but you should be thanking me. If it wasn't Concubine Shu who died, it would have been you who took the poison."

"what do you mean?"

Jiang Wange frowned, feeling a little uneasy. What did Xia Qingqian mean by this? Did she originally intend to harm him?

Seeing this, Xia Qingqian glanced at the door and found that only Rou'er and Qianyue were there, so she relaxed and said calmly:

"A few days before I planned to kill Concubine Shu, the Queen Mother gave me a colorless and odorless poison. She knew that I often went to your palace, so she wanted me to poison you directly and let you die suddenly."

When Xia Qingqian saw the fear in Jiang Wange's eyes, she paused again, as if she felt that telling Jiang Wange the truth was a bit cruel.

A beauty should stay in the ivory tower and maintain her pure and innocent personality.

"Sister, do you want to continue listening?"

Xia Qingqian asked Jiang Wange for his opinion.

After calming down, Jiang Wange decided to listen to Xia Qingqian's opinion.

Seeing that she didn't have much resistance, Xia Qingqian continued:

"I still remember the last time we met, I put the poison on me, but for some reason, when I saw my sister's charming face and eyes, I couldn't bring myself to do it."

"So you went to find Concubine Shu later?"

"I didn't intend to use her as a scapegoat. I just wanted to go to Cheng Huan Palace to discuss cooperation with her, but who knew..."

Xia Qingqian's memory drifted back to a few months ago when she went to see Concubine Shu.

"Why did you come to see me?"

After dismissing the palace maids, Concubine Shu's disdain and contempt for Xia Qingqian were evident in her words.

"Madam Shufei, I want to seek cooperation with you. I know that you have always been controlled by the Queen Mother. Don't you want to break away from the Queen Mother's control and become the new leader of the Xia family?"

During the time Xia Qingqian had been in the palace, she had clearly seen the restrictive relationship between Concubine Shu and the Queen Mother, but she had underestimated Xia Qingqian's stupidity and stupidity.

After hearing what Xia Qingqian said, Concubine Shu did not think about the feasibility of her words or consider cooperating with her, but instead acted as if she had found something on Xia Qingqian.

"Xia Qingqian, you are such a jerk. The Queen Mother has been so supportive of you, yet you actually thought of betraying her. You are truly an ungrateful person!"

Xia Qingqian was slightly stunned, then raised her head to look at Concubine Shu, very surprised by her attitude.

"So Your Majesty is not considering cooperating with this minister?"

"Oh, who the hell are you? Are you worthy enough to cooperate with me? I am a blood sister to the Queen Mother, how could I be provoked by a few words from you? As for you, I will expose you in front of the Queen Mother! Drive you out of the palace! And then kill you, just like I killed your lover!"

After hearing what Concubine Shu said, Xia Qingqian suddenly raised her head and looked at her, but quickly regained her composure and quietly walked behind her.

"Oh? I'm afraid that will disappoint Madam Shufei. I will live well and watch you destroy yourself——"

As soon as she finished speaking, she covered her mouth and nose and sprinkled the powder in front of Concubine Shu.

Shufei's eyes widened in an instant, and before she could react, she fainted from inhaling too much powder.

After Concubine Shu fainted, Xia Qingqian decided to go all out and directly fed her the poison given by the Queen Mother. Then she stripped off her clothes and put them on herself, and hid Concubine Shu under the bed.

Then he whispered to Lian Qiao who was guarding the door, asking her to prepare tea and snacks.

And during the period when Lian Qiao was away, Xia Qingqian replaced her with the real Shufei.

When Lian Qiao returned, he did not see "Xia Qingqian".

"My lady, why isn't Miss Xia here?"

"Humph, who knows what that little bitch did, she said some nonsense and then left, talking nonsense."

Xia Qingqian imitated Concubine Shu's tone and spoke to Lian Qiao.

Lian Qiao didn't notice anything unusual. He put down the tea and snacks and left.
