Chapter 531: What Identity
A smart woman like the queen can naturally see that the emperor cares about Concubine Hua, so she will not be an enemy of Concubine Hua on the surface, but there is no guarantee whether she will do something in secret.
Concubine Hua, who entered and exited the palace, only thought that those who showed disgust for herself on the surface were the ones who really wanted to harm her, and after fighting for so long, Concubine Hua obviously felt hostility from Concubine Rong. Others don't like her very much, but they don't show it too obviously.
Therefore, from the beginning to the end, the only person who Concubine Hua has been guarding against is Concubine Rong.
Besides, for a thoughtful woman like the queen, Concubine Hua can't see through her, but she doesn't doubt that the queen will be unfavorable to her.
On the contrary, she also regarded the queen as a person who could be confided, and Concubine Hua told the queen everything about some of the big and small contradictions between herself and Concubine Rong.
It's a pity that the queen had impure motives from the beginning of her approach to Concubine Hua, and now because she has gained Concubine Hua's trust, she knows more about the contradictions between Concubine Hua and Concubine Rong, so she is not in a hurry to show her true colors.
On the one hand, she found out her details from Concubine Hua, and on the other hand, she secretly put her weakness into the hands of Concubine Rong.
Every time Concubine Rong saw everything about Concubine Hua that those black-clothed people sent to her, she only glanced at it lightly, and then destroyed the corpse.
She clearly knows that the emperor's favorite woman now is Concubine Hua, and the queen also explicitly hinted that she is on Concubine Hua's side, so Concubine Rong will not be stupid to hit the stone with an egg, even if she can't see it, she can't do anything, so she finally chose to ignore it.
Seeing that Concubine Rong had not moved for a long time, the queen couldn't help but have some doubts in her heart, and after the person sent to investigate would come to report the reason why Concubine Rong was reluctant to make a move, the queen's good-looking willow eyebrows were tightly twisted.
Looks like she'll have to make another plan.
She must let the contradiction between the two expand infinitely, since Concubine Rong is unwilling to find trouble with Concubine Hua, then she can let Concubine Hua find trouble with Concubine Rong!
However, despite this thought, she could not think of anything for a moment that could make them hate each other.
It just so happened that during that time, the border was invaded by foreign enemies, and the emperor personally led the troops to the battle, so the emperor was not in the palace.
Since the emperor is not in the palace, why should the two have a disagreement?
The queen has been racking her brains for the past few days, what should she do to make the distrust between Concubine Hua and Concubine Rong deeper and deeper, and escalate the hatred between them.
"The son visits the queen mother." As she walked, the queen bowed her head and thought bitterly. A childish voice interrupted her thoughts.
Looking in the direction from which the voice came, a little tender doll of four or five years old was saluting herself.
For a while, the queen didn't remember that the little doll in front of her was the concubine's child, but she felt that she was so polite at such a young age that she couldn't help but be a little happier, so she looked at it twice.
It's just that the more you look closely, the more the queen feels that the little tender doll in front of her looks a little similar to Concubine Rong. So she bowed down and asked the little doll's mother if it was Concubine Rong.
The little doll didn't know why the queen asked like this, but she still replied honestly.
After the little doll left, the queen looked at his back deeply, although it was a child born to Concubine Rong, but it seemed to be much more sensible and polite than his mother.
Originally, it was just a simple compliment to the child's director's politeness, but then, a thought flashed through his mind.
In this harem, Concubine Rong does not have the emperor's favor, she only has this child left, so she will definitely see this child as more important than her own life.
What would she do if the child was gone?
Thinking of this, the haze of the queen for several days was suddenly swept away, and the corners of her mouth were hooked with a smile of unknown meaning.
On the second day, the queen ordered someone to take advantage of Concubine Rong's inattention to secretly take her child away from her, and made the illusion that Concubine Hua took away her child.
The queen originally just wanted to do nothing, and after bringing Concubine Rong's child, she was going to kill him, she couldn't let Concubine Rong suspect herself, so that Concubine Rong could hate Concubine Hua even more.
But because the child's first impression on the queen was not bad, and the queen had no children under her knees for many years, she also loved the child very much, so her heart softened, so she didn't kill him, but just sent him out of the palace overnight, out of sight and out of mind.
Everything depends on his creation, and whether he lives or dies in the future is none of her business. As long as she hadn't seen him die, she wouldn't have felt distressed.
As the queen expected, the loss of her child's concubine Rong was like losing all faith and hope, and some of her original remaining sanity was gone.
As soon as she heard that her child was stolen by Concubine Hua, she didn't think about it, so she went to the door to find Concubine Hua and forced her to hand over her child.
If she had been more rational at the time, then she would have found that there was something strange about it, Concubine Hua herself had two children, why did she want to steal Concubine Rong's children?
It's a pity that Concubine Rong didn't think much about it at that time, and Concubine Hua thought that Concubine Rong was deliberately looking for trouble for herself and ignored it.
Concubine Rong knew that she couldn't make trouble with Concubine Hua, she couldn't do anything except think she was unlucky, so after she came out of Concubine Hua, she returned to her residence in a daze, looking at her child's little clothes all day long, and no longer went out for half a step.
Because Concubine Rong didn't come to make trouble again, Concubine Hua's life was peaceful.
If it is said that the queen will stop doing so and no longer retaliate against Concubine Hua and Concubine Rong, it is impossible.
Since she had already let Concubine Rong taste the pain of losing her child, she didn't mind letting Concubine Hua taste it too.
So, she was planning how to steal Li Yiyan from Concubine Hua's side.
As it turned out, the queen still thought too simply. The emperor loves Concubine Hua so much, so he must also be very fond of the son born to him by Concubine Hua, so he naturally looks at it more tightly. The queen simply didn't know where to start.
Just when she had gradually given up this idea, when she was visiting the imperial garden, she accidentally met a little princess who was accompanied by only a little palace maid who came out to play.
The queen didn't think much about it, and even coaxed her to her own bedroom, originally wanting to ask the emperor to agree to pass this cute little girl to her knees, so that with the emperor's favor for Concubine Hua, he must also be fond of this little princess, and when the time comes, because of the inheritance to his knees, the emperor will also come to his bedroom from time to time.
She was planning like this, but after thinking about it, if she could use this to make Concubine Hua think that her daughter was stolen by Concubine Rong, then would it be impossible for Concubine Hua and Concubine Rong to be peaceful?
As soon as she thought of this, the queen immediately ordered someone to point all clues to Concubine Rong.
This plan of killing two birds with one stone went quite smoothly. Concubine Hua really thought that her daughter was stolen by Concubine Rong, so she didn't think much about it, so she went to Concubine Rong.
After Concubine Rong was poisoned by eating poisonous tea by mistake, the queen quietly sent the little princess back to her.
So much so that after the emperor came back, Concubine Hua became speechless, no matter how she explained that she didn't mean to kill Concubine Rong, the emperor no longer believed in her, and gradually stopped pampering her.
"You mean, I have a sibling sister?" Li Yiyan raised his head from the pile of folds and stared at Ning Yunxiao in front of him.
Since Changli handed over the information she had investigated to Ning Yunxiao, she took a hasty look at it, and almost understood the general ins and outs, so she went directly to the imperial study in the Qinzheng Palace to find Li Yiyan and briefly summarized the matter.
Li Yiyan suddenly asked this coldly, which made Ning Yunxiao stunned, her attention was only on the struggle between Concubine Hua and Concubine Rong, and the calculation with the queen, and she didn't notice that Li Yiyan also had a sister who was a fellow mother.
She carefully read the information in her hand again and replied: "It is only recorded here that Concubine Hua gave birth to a dragon and phoenix fetus. ”
"But I never knew there was such a sister." Li Yiyan muttered to himself.
Then he suddenly remembered something, and looked at Ning Yunxiao with burning eyes: "Have you checked Li Nuo's life experience?" ”
"What does the emperor mean......" Ning Yunxiao's eyes flashed slightly, and a thought flashed through the alarm clock, "The concubine asked the chief to leave to check." ”
They only paid attention to Bai Jinglian's life experience before, and only investigated whether he was really Rong Concubine's son, and it turned out that he was indeed the prince born by Rong Concubine that year, but he did not disappear not long after he was born, but was sent out of the palace by the queen when he was five years old.
It seems that the annals of the palace record that someone has tampered with it.
As for when it was moved by someone, no one knows for the time being, and it is time to order someone to investigate this matter.
Ning Yunxiao came out of Li Yiyan's imperial study, and saw Li Nuo guarding outside the Qinzheng Palace, Ning Yunxiao was stunned, if she was really Li Yiyan's twin sister, then why would she help Bai Jinglian?
Does she know her identity, or is she misled by Bai Jinglian, and the identity she knows is actually just an identity made up by Bai Jinglian in order to take revenge on Li Yiyan?
Ning Yunxiao was distracted again for a moment, and it wasn't until Li Nuo stepped forward to help her and asked her what was wrong that she suddenly came back to her senses and withdrew her inquiring gaze on Li Nuo: "It's okay." ”
Is it really okay? Li Nuo muttered in her heart, Ning Yunxiao's gaze just now was clearly exploring herself, could it be that she already knew her identity and purpose? Li Nuo was shocked.
The two of them had their own thoughts, one did not point it out, and the other did not dare to say it, so they simply acted as if nothing had happened.
