My best friend is wearing a double body! Marry the emperor! Help me win the throne

"what!"

Immediately afterwards, Biyu's exclamation came from the direction of the lotus pond.

Xue Qingyao heard the noise and immediately stood up from her seat, "Sister Rong Fei, let's go see the little princess!"

Having said that, she ran hurriedly to the pool without even looking at Rong Qingyue.

Rong Qingyue had not originally thought that her daughter had fallen into the water, but after hearing what Xue Qingyao said, she immediately followed nervously.

……

At this moment, Xue Youli pulled Murong Che and hid behind a wall not far away.

She waved the slingshot in her hand towards Murong Che, looking for praise, "Your Majesty, is my aim very accurate?"

Murong Che glanced at her pretty face, his eyebrows and eyes full of doting, "My beloved concubine, your skills are superb. I admire you very much."

Xue Youli met the man's gaze and asked with a smile, "Your Majesty, have you finished the favor I asked you to help me with just now?"

Murong Che glanced at a corner behind him and didn't see the Dragon Shadow Guard, so he said to her, "We have to wait a little longer."

Xue Youli was not in a hurry. Although Xuanming and Chiyan were not in the palace, she was very clear about the strength of the Dragon Shadow Guard. Stealing something from Xue Qingyao was a piece of cake for the Dragon Shadow Guard.

Since the Dragon Shadow Guard hasn't come back to report yet, they'll just watch the show for a while longer.

……

In the garden, when Xue Qingyao and Rong Qingyue stopped by the lotus pond and saw Biyu splashing around in the pond, they were both stunned.

Xue Qingyao looked at Biyu's miserable appearance, and was so angry that she could only grit her teeth and ask, "Biyu, how did you fall into the pond?"

Like a landlubber, Biyu struggled desperately in the lotus pond, "Master, I can't swim... Quickly find someone to rescue me... Gulp gulp..."

Before she finished speaking, she drank several mouthfuls of water from the pond.

Caixia, who was holding Murongxi, took a few steps back and explained the situation to Rong Qingyue and Xue Qingyao, "Miss Biyu came to bring cakes to the little princess. Maybe she lost her balance and suddenly fell into the pool."

After hearing what Caixia said, Xue Qingyao really wanted to push Biyu's head into the water.

This thing has more than enough success but more than enough failure!

She cursed Biyu in her heart, but she had to pretend to be surprised. "Biyu, why are you so careless? The water in this lotus pond is not deep. If you stand up, you won't drown!"

After winter came, it got colder day by day. The lotus flowers in the lotus pond had already dried up, and Jade was almost frozen to death after soaking in the water.

After hearing what Xue Qingyao said, she was stunned for a moment, then suddenly stood up from the lotus pond. The water in the pond only reached her thighs.

Although the pool water cannot drown people, it can freeze people to death.

Biyu's clothes were soaked, her teeth were chattering, and even her voice was trembling. "I was standing perfectly still when I suddenly felt a pain in my knee. It felt like someone pushed me from behind... When I came to my senses, I had already fallen into the water."

Caixia couldn't stand what she said. She frowned and said to the people in the pond, "Miss Biyu, the little princess and I have been feeding the fish. We never pushed you!"

Murong Xi nodded her head vigorously, blinking her big eyes as she looked at Rong Qingyue, "Yes, mother, we didn't push her. She fell into the pool and almost hit Xiaohua."

Rong Qingyue naturally knew that although Murong Xi was naughty, he would not push anyone into the water casually.

She walked over, patted her daughter's head soothingly, and said softly, "Mother knows that Xi'er is the best."

Before she finished speaking, two young eunuchs ran to the lotus pond and asked, "Madam, what happened?"

They had been guarding not far away, and when they saw Rong Qingyue and Xue Qingyao rushing to the lotus pond, they immediately followed.

Rong Qingyue raised her hand and pointed towards the lotus pond, saying to them, "Madam Xue's maidservant slipped and fell into the pond. Please quickly pull her out."

"Yes!"

The young eunuch walked to the edge of the pool, climbed over the railing, and worked together to pull the jade out of the pool.

“Ah-chuh—ah-chuh—”

After Biyu came ashore, she sneezed several times in succession when she was blown by the cold wind.

Xue Qingyao's face was filled with disgust just by looking at him.

This idiot wasted her good plan!

Before she was sure that Murong Xi was a boy, she had no way to pull Rong Qingyue to her side.

Moreover, Rong Qingyue is not a fool. After such a farce, she will definitely doubt the real purpose of bringing Biyu to Yonghe Palace.

Therefore, she had to find a way to dispel Rong Qingyue's suspicion.

"Master, I want to go back first..."

Biyu's clothes were all wet, and she was just about to ask Xue Qingyao for permission to go back and change into clean clothes.

Unexpectedly, just as she started to speak, Xue Qingyao raised her hand and slapped Biyu hard in the face.

Snapped!

The slap was so powerful that a red mark immediately appeared on Biyu's face.

Murong Xi was frightened by Xue Qingyao's sudden action. She pursed her lips and started crying on the spot, "Wuwuwu... Wuwuwu..."

When Rong Qingyue saw her daughter crying, she immediately took her from Caixia's arms and said, "Xi'er, don't cry, mother is here!"

Murong Xi raised her finger and pointed at Xue Qingyao, whose face was ashen, and cried even harder, "Mother, she is so fierce, Xi'er is so scared."

Rong Qingyue reached out and patted Murong Xi on the back, coaxing her gently, "Noble Lady Xue is teaching her own maid a lesson, Xi'er, don't be afraid."

"Little princess, I punished her because she frightened you."

Xue Qingyao didn't expect that by punishing her servant, she actually scared Murong Xi to tears.

She glared at Biyu, who immediately retreated behind her. Even though she was shivering in the cold wind, she didn't dare to say a word.

Murong Xi still had tears in the corners of her eyes. She sniffed and said in a baby voice, "Don't hit her. She's already pitiful enough to have fallen into the pond."

Xue Qingyao took a deep breath and patiently coaxed, "Okay, since the little princess says no, I won't fight her."

As she spoke, she took a few steps forward and reached out to touch Murong Xi's face.

Unfortunately, before her hand could touch Murong Xi, Rong Qingyue dodged it and said, "Sister Xue, it's getting late. Xi'er is tired. I have to coax her to sleep for a while."

She said this tactfully, but Xue Qingyao could tell that she was ordering them to leave.

Xue Qingyao hasn't achieved her goal yet, so how could she be willing to leave like this?

Moreover, if she left today, it would be extremely difficult for her to contact Murong Xi again in the future.

She stood there without moving, but her mind was working rapidly, trying to find a reason to stay and have close contact with Murong Xi.

At this moment, a clear and pleasant female voice came from not far away.

"It's so lively here! Your Majesty, it seems we have arrived at the perfect time!"

Rong Qingyue heard the familiar voice and immediately turned her head. When she saw the person coming, she quickly bowed and saluted, "Your Highness!"

Xue Qingyao and several palace maids also bowed their heads in greeting.

"Your Majesty, your concubine!"

"Your servant/servant pays homage to His Majesty!"

Murong Chexu raised his arm and said, "Everyone, stand up."

"Xi'er, look who's here."

As Rong Qingyue spoke, she put the little person in her arms onto the ground.

Murong Xi raised her tearful eyes, and when she saw the tall and handsome man in front of her, her eyes instantly lit up, "Father!"

As he spoke, the little guy had already stretched out his short legs, flew over, and hugged the man's legs.

Murong Che lowered his head and picked up the little guy from the ground, "Xi'er, do you miss your father?"

"Yes!" Murong Xi responded crisply, stretching out her chubby little arms and hugging Murong Che tightly. "Father, Xi'er misses you every day! But mother said that you are too busy and told Xi'er not to go to you casually, as it would disturb you from handling important matters!"

Murong Che listened to the little guy's soft and sweet voice, his eyes gentle to the extreme, "If Xi'er misses you father in the future, you can come to see me anytime. No matter how busy the state affairs are, they are not as important as Xi'er."

When talking to Murong Xi, this majestic emperor not only had a warm and loving smile on his face, but even his voice became a syllable.

Xue Youli watched from the side and couldn't help but think in her heart that if this man became a father in the future, he would definitely be a daughter slave.

As Xue Qingyao watched the sweet and heartwarming interaction between the father and daughter, she couldn't help but feel a little doubtful about her previous judgment.

Murong Xi is so favored by Murong Che, is it really necessary for Rong Qingyue to hide the gender of the child?

Or was it that her previous judgment was wrong, and Murong Xi was actually a girl?

Do not!

wrong!

She remembered that in her previous life, Murong Che had very little feelings towards Rong Qingyue and Murong Xi, and he rarely set foot in Yonghe Palace.

At this moment, although the interaction between Murong Che and Murong Xi was very fatherly and filial, it felt very unreal.

It's like he was acting deliberately.

Xue Qingyao was confused for a moment. She believed in her intuition and felt that there was a high possibility that Murong Xi was a boy.

But she couldn't explain why Rong Qingyue deliberately concealed the gender of her child if Murong Xi was a boy.

Rong Qingyue is not stupid. Doesn’t she know how beneficial it is for her if Murong Xi is a boy?

Once Murong Xi becomes the eldest prince, it is not impossible for Rong Qingyue to become the queen based on her qualifications and status in the harem.

Then there is only one reason why she concealed the gender of her child——

Unless Murong Xi is not the emperor's child!

When this thought flashed through Xue Qingyao's mind, her pupils shrank sharply. When she looked at Murong Xi again, the more she looked, the more she felt that this child's facial features had nothing in common with Murong Che.

When Xue Youli saw Xue Qingyao staring at Murong Xi's face without blinking, she knew that she was probably still suspecting that Murong Xi was a boy.

I have to admit that the original heroine Xue Qingyao still has some brains.

"Little princess, look what gift I brought you."

Xue Youli deliberately walked in front of Murong Xi and used her body to block Xue Qingyao's sight.

Then, she handed the slingshot in her hand to Murong Xi and said with a smile, "This is a slingshot I asked someone to make for you. It can not only be used as a toy, but also for self-defense."

When Biyu saw the slingshot in Xue Youli's hand, she suddenly realized that she had fallen into the lotus pond because of the pain in her leg.

Murong Xi was overjoyed when she saw the slingshot, "Thank you, Concubine Xue!"

Rong Qingyue corrected with a smile, "Xi'er, now you have to call her Empress Xi."

Murong Xi liked Xue Youli very much. After hearing Rong Qingyue's words, she quickly covered her mouth and said, "Oh, that's right! Mother reminded me a few days ago, but I forgot. Congratulations, Queen Xi!"

Xue Youli reached out and rubbed the little guy's head. "Thank you, little princess. My Zhaohua Palace is very close to Yonghe Palace. If you feel bored in the future, you can always come and play with me!"

Hearing this, Murong Xi grinned at her, showing her neat little teeth, "Okay, okay!"

Xue Qingyao knew that the emperor had arrived, so she would have no chance to confirm Murong Xi's gender.

So, she turned to Rong Qingyue and said, "Sister Rong, I remembered that I have something else to do, so I will go back first."

After saying that, she bowed to Murong Che again and said, "Your Majesty, I will take my leave first."

"what?"

Xue Youli's eyes fell on Xue Qingyao's gauze-wrapped fingers, and she asked with feigned concern, "Sister Xue, why are your fingers injured?"

Xue Qingyao was stunned for a moment and wanted to hide her hand guiltily.

However, she quickly realized what was happening and made up an excuse for herself with a smile, "I've been learning embroidery from Biyu lately, but unfortunately I'm clumsy and always prick my fingers."

"Then Sister Xue, please be careful. Although the needle wound may look small, if the wound becomes infected and worsens, not only will you lose your finger, you may even lose your life."

Xue Qingyao felt that she was exaggerating. "I have taken note of Concubine Xi's reminder. I will not disturb the Emperor and Concubine Rong from accompanying the little princess."

Before leaving, she deliberately glanced at Xue Youli, as if telling Xue Youli with her eyes not to stand there and get in the way.

Murong Che ignored Xue Qingyao and continued to play with Murong Xi patiently.

Xue Qingyao was ignored by him and felt a lot of resentment in her heart, but she could only leave with a smile.

Biyu's lips were frozen purple. Seeing Xue Qingyao leaving, she hurriedly trotted after her, "Master, wait for this servant."

Xue Qingyao seemed not to hear her voice and walked faster.

It wasn't until Xue Qingyao left Yonghe Palace that Biyu caught up with her, "Master, could you..."

Snapped!

clap clap clap!

As soon as Biyu started to speak, Xue Qingyao turned around and slapped Biyu hard on the face.

"Bitch! It's all your fault! If it weren't for you today, how could this have gone wrong?"

She slapped him with great force, and Biyu's face became red and swollen in an instant.

However, she didn't dare to complain and could only explain, "Master, have you seen the slingshot that Concubine Xi gave to the little princess? Just now, when I was trying to attack the little princess, I was hit in the leg by a stone and fell into the pond! This is all Concubine Xi's fault! She ruined your plan!"

It’s Xue Youli again!

Such a good opportunity today was ruined by Xue Youli!

This bitch dared to ruin her big plan, she will make sure she dies a miserable death!

Xue Qingyao remembered that she still had a secret weapon and suddenly laughed, "Okay, since Xue Youli is against me in every way, I can't let her stay!"

People's patience is limited, and she has reached the limit of her tolerance for Xue Youli.

Although she really wanted to kill Xue Youli with her own hands to vent her hatred, wouldn't it be better if she let the bitch Xue Youli die at Murong Che's hands?

Thinking about it this way, whether Murong Xi is the little princess or not seems less important.

As long as she successfully plants the love poison into Murong Che, she will be able to control Murong Che's behavior.

And the first thing she planned to let Murong Che do was to kill Xue Youli.

Just thinking about the scene where Xue Youli would die at the hands of Murong Che in the future, Xue Qingyao was so happy that she wanted to laugh out loud.

No, she can't wait a moment!

She has to find a way to get the emperor to turn her card over!

Because she wanted to take Xue Youli's life right now!

Thinking of this, Xue Qingyao waved to Biyu, "Let's go back to Minghua Palace!"

After returning, Biyu was almost frozen, so she hurried back to her room to change into dry clothes.

Xue Qingyao rushed back to the bedroom in two steps.

She rushed to the corner, picked up her bronze tripod, and carefully placed it on the low table in front of the couch.

Xue Qingyao opened the bronze tripod, cut her finger with a dagger, and said to the two crawling poisonous insects inside, "Eat! Eat more! You are my hope!"

She had fed her lover's poison and was about to take a nap when Biyu suddenly knocked open the bedroom door and said to her excitedly, "Master! Great news! Eunuch Wang just came to tell her that the emperor has chosen your name tonight!"
