As if she had expected it, Concubine Chen had a shallow smile on her face at this time. Seeing her admit so smoothly, Concubine Xin lost her mind for a while, and her face flickered and froze in place. When the emperor heard this, he glanced at Concubine Chen without changing his face, and this glance had already frightened Qingluan's soul for most of the time, and he looked at everyone's demeanor with a smile.

"In that case, you might as well go to Lingxian Palace for a walk, Concubine Ai won't mind."

Concubine Chen stepped forward with a deep blessing, silently opened the way, and everyone walked towards the southwest with their own ghosts. Everyone knows that the harem has never been calm and quiet, but they never expected that the New Year was approaching, and such an earth-shaking event would happen.

Sure enough, the left and right guards searched for puppets with the eight characters of Concubine Xin's birthday written on them in the mezzanine of the mattress of Concubine Chen's bedroom. Even the queen, who has always been dignified and decent, couldn't help but be dumbfounded when she saw this scene.

"Please let the emperor know clearly, the concubine has never seen this thing." When Concubine Chen saw this, she didn't realize that she had lost her previous calm. As soon as she opened her mouth, tears began to pour down her face, and she cried so much that she was crying. Although Qingluan didn't know how much of her panic was true, she could intuitively conclude that the scheming Concubine Chen would never be crowned with the crime of disgust and unaware.

"Sister, you ......" Seeing her like this, Concubine Xin's face slowly oozes cold despair, "Why did my sister harm me, you and I entered the palace in the same year, and we are like sisters." The concubine has always believed in our sisterhood......" When she said this, she burst into tears, as if she were in great grief. On the side, Huiyun was afraid that she would cry, so she hurriedly stepped forward to support Concubine Xin, who was weak.

The emperor, who had not spoken a word before, spoke lightly, and his tone could not hear joy and sorrow. "Concubine Chen, you are guilty." Although this sentence is a reproach, it is full of doubts. Concubine Chen looked at the man's expression, but her face was still pitiful.

Before she could speak, she could hear someone next to her ask, "What smells so fragrant?" ”

Hearing this, a guard stepped forward to check on it, and then said that this thing had musk.

A group of palace concubines were full of astonishment when they heard this, and they retreated in disgust. However, everyone is not stupid, if Concubine Chen really wants to poison Concubine Xin with this thing, how can she ignore her body to join such spices that everyone in the harem avoids. Qingluan only thought about it slightly and had a clue, but she didn't expect that Concubine Chen had already understood all this, and she just acted in a good show.

The emperor was also surprised, and only turned around and said, "May I ask the master, why is this?" ”

The mage's face gradually deepened, and he pinched the puppet in one hand and said, "The silver needle inserted in this object has no curse effect. As if seeing that everyone was skeptical, he explained, "Your Majesty, please see, if it is a witchcraft, you should insert a needle into a place of seven inches, but this thing is impartially leaning into the shoulder, I am afraid that someone will do it in a panic." ”

"Even if Concubine Chen's mother is harmful, she can't mix musk in it by herself," Yu Guiren said bluntly, with a hint of contempt, "There are some people who can use this to make the people in the palace infertile, and the east window incident occurs, or they can beat a wicked person to sue first." ”

Concubine Xin also found out the clues, but under the public opinion, she was speechless for a while. The master of Fahua Temple was originally invited by her, and she insisted on asking the master to take a look at his bedroom, which seemed to increase the speculation of the jade nobles.

Sure enough, the queen's face darkened, and she said: "Master, you can look carefully, if there is such an evil wind in the harem, the palace will severely punish it." ”

"The queen's mother, the concubine ......"

"Concubine Xin." The queen turned to the woman kneeling in front of her, her eyes were already full of anger, "All kinds of things are caused by you, and after the matter is completed, you will sit on the fisherman's profit, so it seems that the palace is also in the dark." ”

The situation suddenly changed, and everything pointed directly to Concubine Xin. The emperor and queen have always been harmonious, and there was a framing in the harem, and Qin Suyue, as the lord of the harem, was naturally duty-bound. Since the emperor is here, he will naturally not give up easily. Seeing that this farce is intensifying, Concubine Xin is at a loss for words, and everyone in the Huawei Palace is persuading.

"The queen is angry, and the concubine may just be a wrong idea."

"The concubine doesn't dare to do such a rebellious thing," Concubine Xin raised her head suddenly, holding the robe of the Son of Heaven with one hand, "Your Majesty, Concubine Chen can only protect herself by doing this, and frame the concubine!" ”

For a while, there was silence in the room, only the wheezing sound of everyone one after another set off the deathly silence in the room. After a long time, the emperor slowly got up, and looked at her with a gaze that gave rise to a lot of annoyance for no reason, and although he suppressed the anger in his heart, his face was gloomy like the sky when a storm was approaching.

"I'll look into this matter thoroughly, so you can do it yourself."

The tone was unhurried, but the words were eloquent. Everyone breathed tightly, and there was an indescribable depression in the air. When the emperor turned around, the hand that had been holding the queen quietly let go, but unfortunately Qingluan was not as careful as Concubine Chen, she lowered her head, and saw a touch of bright yellow passing in front of her eyes, giving birth to a cool breeze, with a harsh winter-like atmosphere.

Time and space seemed to be condensed at this moment, and it didn't take long for Concubine Xin to raise her head timidly, and in the room where everyone had dispersed, the one standing in front of her was the master of this Ling Immortal Palace.

Concubine Chen bent down, her face dyed a layer of crimson due to the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor, which was even more bright and moving. It seems to be whispering, but with a kind of arrogance. "Sister, I heard that you are very good at gambling?"

I don't know why she suddenly mentioned this, Concubine Xin was dumbfounded for a while, and even forgot that she was still kneeling in front of her.

"Then my sister has ever known that a dangerous move in chess can turn the game beautifully, but if you make a wrong move, you will lose the whole game." Concubine Chen slowly straightened her waist again, and at the end of those words, there was a hideous meaning, "Qingluan, let's help Concubine Xinniang go back to the palace to rest first." ”

The maid in a plain skirt slowly helped Concubine Xin, who was already weak and weak, and the moment she saw her dull gaze, for some reason a sense of pity surged into her heart. She understands that as soon as she enters the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea, and the only way to protect herself in the palace is to attack, fight and rob with all her might. This is also a last resort, and it is the only way for people who are innocent and kind to not escape.

Concubine Xin just made the mistake of choosing Concubine Chen as her opponent, and she was inferior to Concubine Chen in terms of mental strategy or vicious scheming, and there are very few people in this harem who can win just by virtue of their outstanding appearance. She has seen with her own eyes how those newly promoted masters died at the hands of the jealous concubines in various palaces, and the law of survival of the harem is also the law of survival.

She just didn't expect that in order to overthrow Concubine Xin and shake the status of the queen at the same time, Concubine Chen did not hesitate to risk her life and chose not to destroy the dolls. She skillfully dressed the puppet in a layer of floral clothes, so that the play could not be hastily ended, and the emperor's mercy and favor. She fought with her life.

Qingluan is a smart person, and he knows that the more people who know the Tao, the greater the danger. She has already understood Concubine Chen's methods, so sooner or later she will have to escape from this place of right and wrong, otherwise let alone spend ten years safely, I am afraid that she will die in vain.

Seeing off Concubine Xin, it was already unitary time when she came out of Huawei Palace. In winter, the sun sets early, and the palace has already been lit and on fire. The night is dotted with gold, and there is an indescribable hazy beauty. Qingluan shuttles between the red pillars of the palace, bathed in the brilliance, like a palace in the sky. Occasionally, I would stop and look at a round of bright moon, and the color of the azure blue was so beautiful that it was not like the world. Suddenly, the woman felt that the lights in front of her were brilliant and unusually bright.

Her mind wandered, and she didn't know when a man stood in front of her, and the little eunuch with the lamp next to her was desperately shaking the palace lamp in front of her eyes, and the man with dragon qi and starry eyes and sword eyebrows was not the current saint. At this time, he changed out of the dragon robe and wore a royal blue robe, which was slightly bewitched by the night, with an extra layer of evil spirit, but it set off the deep eyes on his handsome face.

Qingluan's eyes were startled, and he hurriedly fell to the ground, and before he could say long live, his lips were covered by a slightly cold palm.

"I just want to know what your master has done."
