The imperial concubine is charming and charming, and only seeks power and wealth

"Sister, have you forgotten? She is my cousin and almost became my sister-in-law."

The virtuous concubine smiled slightly and said, "My mother is worried that she can't break her verbal engagement with my brother, so she keeps an eye on her from time to time. During the two years she spent at the farm, she made a promise to the young master of the Chen family to be together forever. If you don't believe me, I can guarantee with my own head that there is absolutely no innocence between her and the young master of the Chen family."

……

The virtuous concubine's words were too shocking.

The hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Who would have thought that the most favored imperial concubine in the harem actually had a lover and had made a promise to be together forever.

Concubine Hui's hand holding the teacup trembled slightly. Seeing that Concubine Xian was so sure of what she said, she had already believed it halfway.

She swallowed, "What do you want to do? Tell His Majesty about this?"

"Sister, you're joking," Xianfei said, mockingly. "Our Majesty, if he doesn't fall in love, it's fine. But once he does, he's a lovelorn man rarely found in history books. This little romance won't necessarily get him to deal with that woman. He'll have to add fuel to the fire. It all depends on whether you dare to cooperate with me to add fuel to the fire."

Concubine Hui was silent for a few breaths, then said, "You go ahead."

The virtuous concubine carefully observed her expression and saw that she was indeed interested. Then she whispered, "I have a good thing that can make a woman..."

Concubine Hui's brows furrowed even more as she listened. "Even if there was a previous relationship, she has now entered the palace and become His Majesty's woman. His Majesty is so handsome and dotes on her. How could she still be thinking about the Young Master of the Chen Family?"

"That's hard to say. What you can't get is always the best. This applies not only to men but also to women. I don't believe she can completely forget those two years. As long as there is still lingering feelings, the medicine will work."

The virtuous concubine smiled with an ambiguous meaning, "Think about it, what blow could be greater than letting Your Majesty see the woman you love soliciting and expressing her feelings for another man?"

Thinking of the emperor's thunderous wrath, Concubine Hui shuddered.

"No, no, no!" She shook her head repeatedly, "If His Majesty finds out..."

"So what if he finds out? If His Majesty does find out, he might even reward you and me, and show him the true nature of that woman, a fickle and erratic woman."

Xian Fei held Hui Fei's hand and gently coaxed her, "You are His Majesty's cousin, and the woman he trusted most before Jiang Lingyue appeared. The relationship between you is different. As long as Jiang Lingyue is executed, the Phoenix Seal will return to your hands, and the harem will return to its former state. His Majesty... His Majesty will also become an emperor who treats everyone equally."

Concubine Hui's eyes wavered a little.

Yes.

Before Jiang Lingyue appeared, she was the woman who was only one step away from becoming the queen.

"But..." Concubine Hui hesitated, "She is protected very well. I don't have the power in the palace. Even if I had supernatural powers, I couldn't drug her and pair her up with Chen Ziwei. Then I'll take His Majesty to see her."

Her cousin wanted to hold the woman in his hands and protect her from all possible harm. It was too difficult to break through the defense and do this.

The virtuous concubine has always acted prudently. Since she has come here, she must have a foolproof plan.

She said, "There is such an opportunity right now, it all depends on whether you dare to do it."

"On the day of the New Year's Eve palace banquet, Chen Ziwei will definitely enter the palace. As for drugging..."

The virtuous concubine said, "Although my sister no longer holds the power in the palace, she has held the Phoenix Seal for the past four years. I believe that with your means, you must have many followers in the inner court. I hope you can help me and expose the true face of that woman's debauchery in front of His Majesty. Only after she is suppressed can peace be restored in the harem."

Although she and Concubine Shu had the power to assist in managing the six palaces, the Phoenix Seal was ultimately in the hands of Concubine Hui.

If it weren't for the fact that she was His Majesty's cousin and had once held great power in the harem, why would she have come all the way to find a deposed concubine?

This is the value of Concubine Hui.

Once something happens, His Majesty will be furious with Jiang Lingyue, but he will certainly not let go easily against the few of them who conspired together to plot this.

At this time, the identity of a cousin always means some affection.

Didn’t I hear that the Prince of Lu was summoned by His Majesty in the capital recently?

"What do you think?" Xianfei smiled softly. "This may be the only chance to put that woman to death. Sister, are you willing to take the risk?"

The hall fell silent.

After a long while, Concubine Hui nodded gently and said, "Please allow me to think about it carefully."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Xian did not press her, but instead reminded her, "Then Sister, think about it carefully. It's just that the New Year's Eve Palace Banquet is not far away, so I hope you can make a decision soon."

After saying this, Concubine Xian stood up and said goodbye.

Concubine Hui was left alone sitting in the main seat, her expression changing several times. After hesitating for a long time, she looked at her trusted maid beside her and asked, "Do you think this is feasible?"

This was a matter of life and death. Baoyue's expression was no better than her master's. She whispered, "I can't make up my mind either. Why don't you ask your family?"

The example of Concubine Zhao is given above.

The Zhao family was implicated because of their daughter in the palace, and the entire family was purged. Hundreds of people were captured by the Imperial Dragon Guards and thrown into prison.

In this peaceful and prosperous era, this is the second aristocratic family whose entire clan has been executed this year. Their kind and benevolent emperor, once determined to kill, used such cruel means. Who wouldn't be terrified when seeing this?

They all wanted to keep their tails between their legs and behave themselves, not daring to offend the emperor.

Concubine Hui didn't dare either.

If she had the Phoenix Seal in her hands before, she might still think that she was different from other concubines, but now that she has become a deposed concubine, she has lost that confidence.

What cousin?

Once it comes to the person in Ning'an Palace, I'm afraid even my own sister will be useless.

Thinking of the emperor's deep thoughts and his eyes that could see through everything, the ambitions that were brewing in Concubine Hui's heart were like being poured with a basin of ice water, and were immediately extinguished by half.

She is really scared!

But after just a few harsh words to that woman, she went from being the first person in the harem to being an abandoned concubine imprisoned in the deep palace...

With such a lesson before her, how could she not learn from it!

But Concubine Xian's lobbying finally aroused some of her thoughts.

However, these little thoughts were completely dashed after the door of Shaoguang Palace was knocked again.

Her brother, Lu Mingrui, the prince of Duke Lu, was actually brought into the harem without being summoned.

The brother and sister talked secretly for a long time in the hall.

Facing her trusted brother, Concubine Hui didn't bother to exchange pleasantries and was eager to tell Concubine Xian all her plans.

"Brother, why don't you send someone to investigate and find out if what Concubine Xian said is true. Is that person in Ning'an Palace really... Your Majesty has been kept in the dark, really..."

"Your Majesty is aware of all these matters. Please do not be foolish and attack the Imperial Concubine."

"Knowing?" Concubine Hui was interrupted before she could finish her words. She was incredulous. "This is a promise to last a lifetime. If Your Majesty knew about it, how could he not mind it at all?"

"More than not minding, His Majesty has deep feelings for the Imperial Concubine and has even begun to disband the harem. Do you know why I'm here today?"

As the Emperor's personal emotional guru, Lu Mingrui could be said to be the person who understood Qi Junyi's almost insane emotions best, apart from Qi Junyi himself.

Hearing this, he sighed and said, "His Majesty, for the sake of our blood relationship, asked me to ask you whether you want to return home or go to the Zhenguo Temple to pray for the royal family. In short, you must not stay in the palace and get in the way of the Imperial Concubine."

"These are His Majesty's exact words! No one can shake his resolve to dismiss the harem, not even the Imperial Concubine."

"Yao'er," Lu Mingrui felt pity for his thin, frail, pale sister. "There's no room for you in the palace anymore. Come home. With your parents and your brother here, you'll still be the eldest daughter of the Lu family. No matter how you were before you got married, nothing will change after you return home."
