Chapter 220: The Story of Concubine Qi
Qi Concubine Palace.
"Concubine Qi is a good plan, this time, the queen must be sad! As for Miss Cheng of the Crown Prince and Taifu's family......"
Qi Concubine's personal palace maid Liu Dan flattered Qi Concubine with a villain face.
"Hehe, in fact, the palace didn't do anything, the emperor and queen are not in the palace, the palace is just in accordance with the law of Jun Anguo, the murderer was arrested, and the truth of the matter was investigated."
I don't know if Concubine Qi has pretended to be simple for too long, so that even in her own palace, when talking to her henchmen, she still maintains an innocent and innocent appearance, which is really a bit unfathomable.
Qi Concubine's father was a sesame petty official in the capital, and he relied entirely on the imperial examination and his strength to embark on a career back then.
In Jun'an Kingdom, where the forces of the DPRK and China are intertwined, the father of Qi Concubine, who has no foundation in the whole family, can only guard this small sesame black hat, and basically there is no possibility of doing anything greater in this life.
As the best-looking daughter in the family, Concubine Qi naturally shouldered the glorious mission of taking root in the court for the family.
Since ancient times, it is not uncommon for a daughter to rise in the harem and drive the whole family to glory.
Therefore, Qi Concubine's father's entire family is with such a dream and intends to take such a development route that uses beauty.
Concubine Qi has a gentle appearance, which is very comfortable at first glance and very durable after watching for a long time, which is in line with Yu Wenyin's requirements when choosing a concubine.
So, when Concubine Qi participated in the palace draft, she was successfully selected by Yuwenyin.
Yu Wenyin deliberately focused on the family background of these girls during the draft, Qi Concubine's father is very capable, but he will be unknown because of the lack of some help.
In fact, Yuwenyin's selection of Qi Concubine into the palace was also to give Qi Concubine's father more opportunities in the future, and his original intention was also very regrettable.
When she first entered the palace, Concubine Qi also had the ambition of promoting the concubine position and fighting for some practical benefits for her mother's family.
However, the unfathomable depths of the harem gradually made Concubine Qi realize that she was powerless.
Concubine Qi once saw the nobles who disobeyed Concubine Xuan being beaten to death, but Concubine Xuan was not punished at all.
There was a master in the palace, but as if nothing had happened, it couldn't stir up any splash, and it was not even as influential as the death of some favored concubines.
Looking at the dead nobleman's desperate and unwilling eyes before he died, Qi Concubine's heart was shocked.
Because, the noble man who died is very similar to Concubine Qi, both of them are very low-powered, and they are not very favored in the palace.
Qi Concubine, who recognized the reality, began to pretend to be obedient and simple, not fighting, not grabbing, and being low and small.
Fortunately, Concubine Qi's appearance and temperament are very consistent with the appearance she pretended, so that she has been unknown in the harem and has not been persecuted.
Qi Concubine once thought that her life would be spent like this.
Until that day, Ye Lingxi suddenly ordered Concubine Qi's performance program at Concubine Jia's birthday banquet, and won the honor of being a noble concubine for Concubine Qi in front of Yu Wenyin.
Qi Concubine will never forget what a big splash her heart was like stagnant water at that moment.
She suddenly felt that she still had a chance!
However, after a short period of surprises and accidents, Concubine Qi suddenly had a little resentment towards Ye Lingxi, why did she push her to the forefront and become the target of the harem.
Concubine Qi, who was accustomed to intrigue and intrigue in this harem, even maliciously speculated whether Ye Lingxi would deliberately push her out, so that Concubine Xuan could attack her and let her compete with Concubine Xuan.
Everyone only saw Concubine Qi kneeling gratefully to thank the queen mother Longen, only Concubine Qi realized that Concubine Xuan looked at her gaze, how vicious and resentful she was.
Qi Concubine knew that from then on, her life would never be peaceful. Between Concubine Xuan and her, only one person is destined to remain.
Although Concubine Qi has always been fighting or grabbing, it doesn't mean that she won't dare.
This time, Ye Lingxi pushed her to the current situation, so she could only give it a go, the harem is destined to be life and death.
How could Ye Lingxi have imagined that her good deeds would be distorted by Concubine Qi into such a deep meaning, but instead Concubine Qi would become the poisonous snake among farmers and snakes.
Concubine Xuan's purchase of poison at the Thousand Poison Gate, Concubine Qi had already secretly found out.
Most of the poisons in the Thousand Poison Gate are very expensive, and only a few basic poisons are slightly cheaper.
Concubine Qi's maiden family is not as rich as Concubine Xuan's, and the moonsilver in the harem is even more useless for buying poison.
However, those cheap poisons are very poorly concealed, and can be tried with a little bit of a silver needle.
If Concubine Qi wants to use poison to frame Concubine Xuan, she must not use such an obvious poison.
In order to buy a good poison that could be reminiscent of Concubine Xuan, Concubine Qi took away many of her dowries, and finally scraped together enough silver taels to buy a lancet poison.
This lancet poison, Concubine Qi gave it to Ye Lingxi.
The palace maid in charge of preparing the tableware in the kitchen once provoked Concubine Xuan because of a trivial matter, and was almost beaten to death by Concubine Xuan, but it was Concubine Qi who found it by chance and saved her life lying in the corner and dying.
The palace maid was also a fierce man, Concubine Qi saved her life, and she was loyal to Concubine Qi from then on, doing her best, and then dying.
Concubine Qi never told her to do anything, and that day, when Concubine Qi found her and handed the lancet poison into her hands, she agreed without even thinking about it.
In Concubine Qi's plan, she didn't expect to directly poison Ye Lingxi with this lancet poison.
This poison, if you can directly poison Ye Lingxi, it can only be regarded as an unexpected gain, if the poison does not die, then it can make Ye Lingxi suspicious of Concubine Xuan's head.
Concubine Qi couldn't have imagined that although she did it so perfectly, the witty Ye Lingxi still felt that the incident of the Lancet poison was not like Concubine Xuan's handiwork.
The lancet poison in the dish was really seen through by Ye Lingxi, but Concubine Qi was not discouraged, the lancet poison was just a foreshadowing, and the real highlight was behind!
When Concubine Qi was young, she was very naughty, not like the average lady, and she enjoyed flowers and embroideries in the room all day long, but liked to dance with knives and guns.
Qi Concubine's father was an enlightened person, and specially invited a person from the rivers and lakes to teach Qi Concubine martial arts.
Although it is only a superficial taste, however, that little bit of martial arts is enough for Qi Concubine to have a great advantage in a group of harem women who have no martial arts.
Because she has been unknown, she thinks that no one knows about Qi Concubine's martial arts.
In fact, Qi Concubine's disguise was indeed very successful.
If it weren't for Concubine Jia's chance to see Concubine Qi subconsciously use light skills and land smoothly from the rockery, in this harem, except for Concubine Qi's henchmen and palace maids, no one really knows that Concubine Qi knows martial arts.
And knowing that Ye Lingxi is afraid of water is the key point, in fact, it was only Qi Concubine who heard Cheng Baguio talk about it by chance, not that Qi Concubine and Cheng Baguio colluded.
Cheng Biyao is arrogant and disdainful of associating with people like Qi Concubine.
But Concubine Qi could overhear Cheng Biyao talking about Ye Lingxi's weaknesses, whether this was Cheng Biyao's mind simply and casually said, or whether she had premeditated and deliberately revealed it, only Cheng Biyao herself knew.
It can be said that in addition to being a step above Concubine Xuan in terms of strategy and calculation, Concubine Qi is also very lucky.
On the day Ye Lingxi fell into the water, everything went smoothly according to Qi Concubine's plan, without deviations and accidents.
In the end, Concubine Xuan was stripped of her concubine position, expelled from the palace, and hated Ye Lingxi very much.
The plan to kill two birds with one stone, perfect without any flaws.
Of course, this perfection may only be superficial......
This time, Ye Lingxi went out with Yu Wenyin, and Concubine Qi wanted to live a stable life, but Xingchen's actions were too big, so she couldn't help but make a move.
Ye Lingxi took a fancy to Xingchen, which had long been a public matter in the harem.
Xingchen killed someone near the imperial study, and the human and material evidence were all there, so Concubine Qi hurried over and put Xingchen in the prison.
Although according to the law of Jun'anguo's harem, Xingchen is the queen's mother, even if he makes a big mistake, he needs to wait for the queen to return to the palace before dealing with it.
However, in addition to the superficial punishment, there are countless ways of punishment in the prison.
Since Concubine Qi had already sent Xingchen to the heavenly prison, she naturally would not let him come out alive.
When buying off the officers and soldiers, Concubine Qi used a little skill, and she perfectly blamed Cheng Biyao for the commander, poor Cheng Biyao didn't know what was going on, so she was beaten up by Ye Lingxi.
However, based on what Cheng Baguio had done to Ye Lingxi, she was punished, and she deserved it.
It's just that the real black hand Qi Concubine who was instructed behind the scenes, this time, was missed by Ye Lingxi.
In order to successfully and quietly execute Xingchen, Concubine Qi did not carefully explore the truth and specific details of Xingchen's murder, but only cared about finding a way to torture Xingchen in the prison, so as to make Ye Lingxi sad.
It was precisely because of Qi Concubine's encouragement that the other details of Xingchen's killing near the imperial study were ignored by everyone, whether something was lost in the imperial study was not thoroughly investigated, and the matter was not reported to Yu Wenyin, who was far away in Kang Lin City.
Yu Wenyin was not in the palace, and no one knew that in the dark compartment in the imperial study, a fist-sized cyan fruit that was supposed to lie quietly in it was now gone.
Therefore, Qi Concubine's framing can be regarded as indirectly helping Xingchen, accidentally assisting Xingchen's stealing of beams and pillars, and delaying the discovery of the theft of the fruit of the Divine Tree.
……
Ye Lingxi, who had planned to recuperate in the Jun'an Kingdom Palace for a few days, did not wait for the good news that Yun Luosheng brought to her as she imagined, but first waited for the bad news from the battlefield of Kanglin City, at least for her, this news was very bad, it was simply bad!
Jun Anguo's camp sent back a good news, Jun Anguo won a great victory in the latest battle with Tianheguo, the emperor of Tianheguo was seriously injured, life and death are unknown, Junanguo took advantage of the situation to regain the two cities occupied by Tianheguo, and will soon return to the court!
When she heard the news, Ye Lingxi was originally eating, and her first reaction was to rush to the battlefield immediately. However, before she could walk out of the door, her movements stopped.
In ancient times, news was not transmitted as quickly as it is in modern times, and the fact that the news had just come back indicates that at least a day had passed since the incident.
Now, even if Ye Lingxi set off for the battlefield immediately, it would be useless......
