Walking along the long corridor, the walls, floor tiles, columns, and surrounding sculptures are all made of iron-gray stone, which looks heavy and cold, giving people a sense of lifelessness.

Although the imperial concubine has gone through two dynasties, she has heard more than once about this place that makes the harem concubines talk about it, but it is the first time to set foot here in person!

The flowers and plants in the courtyard are a little messy because of poor repair, and the two square pillar-shaped gardening robots seem to be short of energy, listlessly leaning on the carved railings, and they don't move for a long time. The steps were covered with withered yellow fallen leaves, fairly smooth floor tiles, and weeds poking their heads out of the cracks.

The surroundings are quiet, and occasionally a few old-dressed and wooden-looking biochemical maids will pass by, like a walking corpse! There are a lot of cobwebs on the window lattices and between the door beams, and the palace complex looks lifeless, and after walking in it for a long time, even the mood will become extremely depressed!

She sighed secretly in her heart, and she didn't know how many dreams and hopes of the harem beauties had been buried since this place was built, and all the good youth had been wasted! Some people go crazy, some commit suicide, some are lonely and old, and of course, there are a very few lucky people who see the light of day again for various reasons and get the opportunity to leave, but there are too few examples like that!

In the era of the Shuofeng Empire, she had witnessed many familiar sisters who were ordered by the queen to be sent to this tomb of the living dead, desperate and helpless to die! Most of them were innocent, but because they didn't like the woman, and they didn't have a strong enough family to back them up, they had to accept such a miserable fate. And the emperor at that time pretended to be deaf and dumb about this, didn't care, and let the vicious woman toss!

Only the current majesty can be regarded as doing a good deed, releasing all those women home, and then ordering the palace to be sealed.

It's just that after being silent for a few years, it had to be activated again, and the first prisoner to usher in was the queen, who was the master of the middle palace!

After seven turns and eight turns, after walking a short distance, I finally arrived at the place.

It can be seen that this palace is relatively tidy, and it is clear that it has recently been cleaned up to a certain extent, so that it does not look as dilapidated and messy as other places that are still sealed.

A team of female guards guarded the door, and after the major general went over and showed his documents, the captain ordered the door of the temple to be opened and let Feng Lanxi walk in.

The furnishings in the palace are extremely simple, and it does not look like the residence of a queen at all.

She looked around for a while, and in the corner of the side of the main hall, there was a small Buddha shrine, the Buddha lamp was bright, and the green smoke in the incense burner swirled, changing complex shapes in the air. Xiao Muhan, who was dressed in an ordinary blue dress, sat in front of the incense burner, staring at the Buddha statue with a serene expression.

Hearing the sound of deliberate slow footsteps behind her, she slowly turned her head, and saw the graceful and white-clothed imperial concubine standing not far away, staring at her calmly.

She didn't say anything, and the other party didn't mean to speak, and the two most prominent women in the court of the Starlight Empire looked at each other silently for a long time.

"You're here?" After a long silence, Xiao Muhan's hoarse voice finally sounded in the hall.

Feng Lanxi nodded lightly: "Yes, I'll come and see you!" ”

After a pause, she added: "This is also what Your Majesty meant, and ...... They! ”

The corners of Xiao Muhan's mouth turned up, and a faint smile appeared: "Okay! Now that we've seen it, what's next? Where is Your Majesty's will? Take it out and announce it! ”

"I said, I just came to see you, and I just talked to you by the way, as for what Your Majesty means, I don't know now!" Feng Lanxi said softly.

Xiao Muhan was obviously a little surprised: "Could it be that until now, he still hasn't been able to make up his mind?" I thought you would come with the poisoned wine Bai Aya this time! Of course, according to the usual practice, it should be the head of the inner court and the commander of the palace guards who came to read the edict, and the House of Nobles sent someone to supervise the implementation, so you shouldn't do it! ”

"You know a lot about the program!" Feng Lanxi smiled slightly, sat down gracefully beside her, and continued:

"You can rest assured, at least until something happens, you'll never be able to wait for that scene!"

"What about them?" Xiao Muhan asked with a smile.

The imperial concubine took out a stack of documents from the space bracelet and handed it to her.

Xiao Muhan took it and flipped through a few pages, and her face turned red! The awe-inspiring killing intent was released at a trace, locking every vital point around her!

However, the great wise man did not appear to be panicked in the slightest, but sat quietly, not taking her reaction seriously at all.

"Even if I deserve to die, you can just ask Your Majesty to give me a cup of poisoned wine! Why would you want to make such a thing to tarnish my innocence? She gritted her teeth.

It was a detailed report on Empress Xiao's past experiences, including her debauchery in her private life, her affairs with several men when she was still a minor, her frequent attendance at masquerade balls in the Imperial Palace of the Gnasrock Empire, her ambiguous relationships with many members of the royal family, and even various details were well documented!

In other words, Yun Haoyu, the founding male master of the Starlight Empire, was just one of her many men at that time!

"This is not my intention, nor is it anyone's intention, but the common will of all the sisters in the harem!" Feng Lanxi said calmly, "Don't feel incomprehensible, just because of what you did some time ago, you offended all the sisters!" That's why they felt the need to help His Majesty make this difficult decision to put you to death! ”

Xiao Muhan's face was as pale as paper, and he said in a low voice: "Could it be that Your Majesty would believe in such a non-existent thing?" With his mind, it is impossible to easily believe a forged material, right? ”

Feng Lanxi smiled: "Yes, this material is indeed fake, and the above things are all fabricated out of thin air!" The problem is that all the ladies of the harem believe in it, and if I also believe in it and am willing to sign it, then the fake will become real! Your Majesty will naturally believe it! ”

Xiao Muhan's delicate body trembled slightly: "You ...... Why do you want to do it so badly? Even if I'm wrong, even if I'm damned, my thoughts about Your Majesty remain the same! Why are you framing me like this? ”

"You'll have to ask yourself!" Feng Lanxi sighed, "When Your Majesty was trapped and Empress Fang was taken captive, the entire imperial capital belonged to you with the highest status, at this critical moment, not only did you not want to save Your Majesty, but instead connived at your own people to do those evil things that many people and gods were angry with!" Don't you think they should hate you? ”

"But it wasn't my intention, they did a lot of things from me!" Xiao Muhan hurriedly argued.

Feng Lanxi said calmly: "There are some things that I haven't done, just because I don't have responsibilities!" Your people are so arrogant and lawless, and they are not by virtue of your position? You know that this is wrong, and you know what kind of damage it will cause to the empire, why don't you take decisive steps to stop it? ”

"You are the rightful queen of the empire, from beginning to end, your power has not been suppressed, as long as you are willing, no matter how powerful your people are, they will definitely not be able to fight against them! Why don't you do it? ”

"This ......" Xiao Muhan wanted to explain, but suddenly found that he couldn't talk about it.

The great wise man seemed to understand her thoughts, and said gently: "Of course you know what is going on, but this reason is a little unreasonable, so let me tell you for you!" ”

"Princess Yun Qixuan was born to you, and she is the legal first heir of the empire, if Your Majesty falls, then it is natural for her to take over the throne! At that time, you were already thinking about how to let your daughter inherit the empire, and for this you had to rely on the power of your own family, so you would tolerate their behavior! ”

"But you didn't expect that many sisters in the harem and the civil and military ministers around Your Majesty did not give up their efforts, and the god of fate still favored Your Majesty, when your family gathered a fleet and teamed up with Randall to attack the Imperial Palace, did you think about the fate of your own failure?"

Xiao Muhan gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "If Your Majesty really falls, then is my behavior still a betrayal?" It's better to let Yun Qixuan succeed to the throne than to let the rebels like Randall take away the foundation of the empire, right? ”

"Once the princess can't compete for that position, then no matter who the new emperor is, me, the princess, and my family will not survive! And the situation at that time was so critical, Randall and Zhong Mingrui, and some inexplicable forces were approaching step by step, if I didn't take precautions and make some preparations first, then I could only watch the other party take the lead, and then cut us all off! ”

"I just thought about it with both hands, after all, no one knew His Majesty's state at that time, you are the wisest woman beside Your Majesty, don't you understand the necessity of doing this?"

"That's right, Yun Qixuan is Your Majesty's bloodline, if Your Majesty really falls, it is natural for her to ascend to the throne! But are you in a hurry? Your Majesty is not dead after all, right? And your people, who look eager to seize power! Even if there is a reason to do this, this is too ugly! Feng Lanxi stared at her coldly and said, "And from the standpoint of Your Majesty and us, your behavior, the behavior of your people is absolutely unforgivable!" In your heart, Your Majesty is not put first by you, it is your family that occupies that position! ”

She raised her hand slightly, stopped Xiao Muhan, who was about to open her mouth to defend herself, and continued:

"Don't be in a hurry to deny it, before I came, I had already made the most comprehensive analysis and interpretation of your past experience, and all the information that could be gathered was with me! So there are some things that you yourself have not been aware of, but your choices have exposed your inner thoughts! ”

"When you and Your Majesty met for the first time in Twilight Star, you didn't have much heart for him at all, but after getting along for a long time, you moved your true feelings, but this affection was also limited, when the family's order was issued, you still chose the family, not Your Majesty!"

"Later, you thought that Your Majesty had died, and found out that you were pregnant, perhaps out of regret, or perhaps with other intentions, you still chose to give birth to the child and raised her alone for two years! And this incident has always been remembered by His Majesty, and it has a direct impact on his current attitude towards you! ”

"But what you did this time really disappointed him! On the Juntian Palace that day, His Majesty was indeed murderous, if it weren't for Yu Xinzhe, plus I came forward to intercede for you, you wouldn't have had a chance to come here at all! ”

Xiao Muhan looked at her deeply: "So, why are you interceding for me?" Does this make you more likely to get the queen's throne? ”
