Shocking! The killer traveled through time and space and became a female Shura, killing like crazy
Chapter 255 He Qinghuan's Vicious Plan
While the emperor was around, Concubine Rong "woke up in the middle of the night" and sobbed, her tears streaming down her face truly heartbreaking.
The emperor asked with concern: "My beloved concubine, what's wrong?
"Your Majesty, ever since I moved into the Jade Purity Palace, I've been plagued by nightmares every night. I wake up in the middle of the night in terror, and I'm restless all day, with a tightness in my chest, making it difficult to fall asleep."
"You can summon the imperial physician for consultation."
"The imperial physician said this might be caused by a change of location."
"I have already ordered the repairs to Qixia Palace. You can move back in after it's finished."
"Your Majesty, Qixia Palace still needs a few days of repairs. I can't sleep or eat well at night."
The Emperor hugged Concubine Rong in his arms, feeling distressed. "Don't worry, my dear. I will order people to speed up the repairs tomorrow. It will take at least six or seven days."
"Your Majesty, I would like to go to the Royal Temple to burn incense and pray for blessings. First, I pray that Your Majesty is healthy, that the Great Qi is peaceful and that the people can live and work in peace. Second, I pray that the Goddess of Childbirth will see my sincerity and fulfill my dream of becoming a mother."
The emperor felt a little guilty when he heard this, but for the sake of the overall situation, he would not let Concubine Rong get pregnant. The kingdom of Da Qi must not be integrated with foreign blood, otherwise the royal family of Da Qi would be controlled by Bei Yan a hundred years later.
The emperor said with a firm look in his eyes: "My beloved, I am already satisfied with your kindness. When fate comes, my son will naturally have it."
Rong Fei looked at the emperor and asked, "Your Majesty, do you prefer the prince or the princess?"
"I like them all. My beloved concubine, please stay in the royal temple for a few days and follow the master in doing morning prayers. Your mind will be at peace. When Qixia Palace is repaired, return to the palace and I will send someone to escort you there."
Rong Fei leaned on the emperor's chest and said gratefully: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
But a sinister expression appeared on her face, and she muttered in her heart, "Your Majesty, you are so cruel that you have been tampering with the spices to prevent me from getting pregnant. But I insist on getting pregnant and giving birth to the future king of Da Qi, so that the Da Qi regime will fall into the hands of us, the people of Bei Yan."
By then, will your ancestors of the Shangguan family be so angry that they will crawl out of their coffins?
Rong Fei rested her head on the emperor's chest, rubbing it back and forth. She was wearing a white middle-length dress, which slightly revealed her charming collarbone, which made the emperor's blood boil. He suddenly turned over and pressed on Rong Fei. Soon, the moans of men and women were heard in the hall.
The next day, Concubine Rong took a luxurious carriage to the royal temple to pray.
After leaving the palace, she quickly instructed Yutong to send a message to the fifty assassins hidden in the capital.
These fifty death warriors were left to Concubine Rong for her to command when Rong Zhang left. After a few years, the number has now grown to five hundred.
This time, in order to kill Shangguan Rui, a hundred death warriors were ordered to ambush Shangguan Rui on the road he had to take to return to Beijing.
After the eldest prince finished his morning court session, he changed into a guard's black robe to avoid being seen, quietly left the city in a carriage, and then rode his horse through a shortcut to the royal temple with his guards.
Shen Xue has been living in a medical school in the suburbs since returning from Huayang County.
Chu Jun has been unwilling to give up since being rejected by Shen Xue. His sister and mother advised him to give up Shen Xue and find another girl to marry as soon as possible, but he liked Shen Xue in his heart and was not happy with any other girl, let alone marrying her, so he had always been at odds with his family.
The noble ladies in the capital asked matchmakers to come to their homes to propose marriage but were repeatedly rejected. Among them was the wife of Zhou Jian, a fourth-rank civil servant in the Hanlin Academy. Her eldest daughter-in-law was He Qinghuan, who had lost the bet with Shen Rou at the banquet and was also the younger sister of Concubine He.
She lost the bet with Shen Rou at the banquet, and Shen Rou asked her to apologize in front of everyone. She lost face for the He family and became a laughing stock in the aristocratic circle.
Her parents married her off to the Zhou family, then the prefect of Bingzhou. With He Qinghuan's marriage, the Zhou family was promoted to a position of official in the capital. Lord Zhou had just arrived in the capital with his family, so he wasn't familiar with the city's current situation. Even if he knew about He Qinghuan's past, he wouldn't dare do anything about it. After all, the Zhou family still depended on Censor He and Concubine He.
Mrs. Zhou knew about Shen Xue's situation because of He Qinghuan's recommendation. She learned that Shen Xue was personally conferred the title of County Lady and the First Female Saint by the Emperor, which would bring honor to the Zhou family.
Moreover, Shen Xue's identity as an orphan is easier to control, and the Zhou family will gain both fame and fortune by marrying such a daughter-in-law.
The matchmaker was rejected several times when she came to the house. He Qinghuan smiled maliciously when she learned about it. She instigated her mother-in-law to propose marriage in order to take revenge on Shen Xue, and not to find a wife for her brother-in-law.
"Mother, I just heard that Shen Xue has been involved with several young masters in the capital. If I marry such an unruly woman, she will definitely be ridiculed by the people of the capital. It's a good thing that the marriage didn't go through, otherwise my uncle would have married a useless woman."
Madam Zhou was shocked and said, "That's not what you said at the beginning. You praised her medical skills and said that the medical school in the suburbs and Yipin Pavilion belonged to Princess Mu. When Princess Mu died, they would be her dowry. How could it have become like this in such a short time?"
"Mother, my daughter-in-law didn't know she was such an unruly person. We can't just let her tease us like this."
"What are you going to do?"
"Mother, your daughter-in-law is someone who will let the people of the capital know what kind of character Shen Xue is. Don't let everyone be blinded by her identity as the number one female saint."
Madam Zhou said worriedly, "My eldest daughter-in-law, we just arrived in the capital and are not familiar with the complicated relationships there. Let's forget it. After all, she was personally appointed as the county lord by the emperor. If things get out of hand, the emperor will definitely be displeased if he finds out."
"Mother, the Emperor is so busy with state affairs that he doesn't have the time to care about these trivial matters. Besides, don't we still have my father and elder sister? Why should we be afraid of a mere county lady like her?"
"Then take it easy."
"Mom, don't worry!"
The next day, rumors spread throughout the streets of Beijing that Shen Xue was involved with many men, and that she was promiscuous and a broken woman.
As soon as the news came out, the entrance to the princess's mansion was littered with stones and rotten vegetable leaves. Many ignorant people also gathered around and cursed Shen Xue at the entrance. Among those cursing were people arranged by He Qinghuan.
