Chapter 311 The Imperial Concubine is Pure and Elegant (Sixty)

Cui Li: "Whether Ji Wei's twins can be born depends on her intelligence and ability to protect her children. She has bad intentions and killed the original owner, so I will naturally fight back, but it hurts more to cut with a soft knife. Ji Mingyue has a grudge against her, and the Queen has a grudge against her, so it's not bad for me to just sit back and reap the benefits. The harem is too quiet now, so we need to make some moves, so that we can fish in troubled waters! When I was sleeping last night, were you mumbling to myself that Queen Ji didn't drink the slow-acting poison?"

System Qiqi: "Yes, it's not that Ji Wei is pregnant. Emperor Liang has been aloof lately, and it seems he's no longer favoring his concubines. Empress Ji was so angry that she refused to drink. But today she regretted it again. She asked Xiangxiu to boil the medicine and was going to invite Liang Sheng to Kunning Palace tonight. However, Liang Sheng refused on the grounds that he was busy with government affairs. Empress Ji was so angry that she smashed the bowl. Xiangxiu brought another bowl of medicine and persuaded Ji Shilan to drink it. She persuaded her for half an hour, but Empress Ji got angry and slapped her."

Cui Li raised her eyebrows. If Ji Shilan didn't take the medicine for seven days, she wouldn't die like in her previous life. It was just that she had been taking the medicine for five months and her body had been damaged.

She had only been there for two days when Qiqi told her that Ji Shilan had lost her fertility. The reason it hadn't been discovered was because the exclusive imperial physician who took her pulse was already Ji Wei's man.

She had just arrived at that time and it was difficult for her to take action, but now she can take action.

System Qiqi: "After Xiangxiu was beaten, she contacted the imperial physician, apparently hoping that he would persuade Empress Ji to continue taking the medicine."

Cui Li: "Tsk tsk tsk, this Xiangxiu won't give up! Yes, after learning about her identity from Ji Wei, how could she not hate? Madam Ji played games with the concubines, and let her good illegitimate daughter become a maid born of a slave. It is obvious that with her status as a illegitimate daughter of a first-rank general's mansion, it is not a problem for her to marry a poor scholar. If she is lucky, she can also marry the second son of a second or third-rank official. In the end, she has been a maid by the side of the eldest lady for so many years. After her biological mother died, she still bears the stigma of cheating. Her bloodline is in doubt. Even if she shouts it out, she can't restore her status. Her elder sister is the queen who is high above everyone else, but she is just a palace maid. It is hard not to feel resentful."

Qiqi also felt that the world is unpredictable. Madam Ji probably never dreamed that the descendants of the concubine she had harmed would one day harm her own daughter.

System Qiqi: "Oh, so Xiangxiu would turn to Ji Mingyue in her first life, and only in this life would Ji Wei learn of Xiangxiu's life experience in advance and be able to subdue Xiangxiu. Madam Ji couldn't stand the arrogance of the favored concubine, so she schemed to get rid of her. The child born by the concubine died in childbirth, but in fact, it was replaced by the concubine's loyal servant. Even Xiangxiu's mother didn't know that her child was not her own. If she didn't know her identity, Xiangxiu would naturally be loyal to Ji Shilan. After all, she was a house-born child, and the whole family was in the hands of Madam Ji. But if she knew that she was not the biological child of a servant, and her biological father was General Ji, wouldn't she hate Madam Ji to death? She was so jealous of Ji Shilan that every time she helped Ji Shilan with palace affairs, she fantasized that she was the queen."

Cui Li only sympathized with Xiangxiu's life experience for a second, and no longer sympathized with her the next second. Why should she sympathize with her?

In her previous life, Xiangxiu poisoned the original owner on Ji Wei's orders. Xiangxiu's mother's loyal servant probably had bad intentions, and after being transferred to Ji Shilan, Xiangxiu finally became Ji Shilan's maid, probably hoping to take revenge on Madam Ji one day. But Ji Shilan had never harmed Xiangxiu, so this was the case of the son paying for the mother's debt.

System Qiqi: "Hey, Qingli, Cuiyun seems to have informed Queen Mother Cui. She's here. I'm leaving first."

Cui Li pretended to be heartbroken in the house and then welcomed Queen Mother Cui.

"My dear, why are you crying so hard? Your eyes are swollen. Cuiyun, go get some ice."

Queen Mother Cui felt distressed and personally applied compresses to Cui Li's eyes, comforted her, and coaxed her to sleep.

After Empress Dowager Cui left Chengqian Palace, she went to the imperial study and scolded Liang Sheng severely. Liang Sheng knew he was in the wrong and listened obediently.

Liang Sheng came to Chengqian Palace in the evening, and as expected, was turned away.

When Le Chang cautiously asked where he would stay tonight, Liang Sheng chose to return to his own bedroom.

"Your Majesty, our people saw from afar that His Majesty had gone to Chengqian Palace."

After hearing the eunuch's report, Ji Wei felt depressed.

Chengqian Palace, Chengqian Palace, why is it called Chengqian Palace?

She waved the eunuch away and sat alone in front of the dressing table, sulking.
