Qiu An and I went to the dark prison together, and on the way, I asked her: "Is there no connection between the three clans of this rebellion and the death of Empress Ji, otherwise why would the emperor be benevolent and leave their people alive?"

"The death of Empress Ji is inseparable from the Baili family, but the Shennong clan still has the fief of the Lingdie clan and the imperial city thousands of miles apart, and the two clans did not participate in framing Empress Ji. ”

Qiu An answered me truthfully, although she didn't say everything in detail every time, but I think she knew a lot about the affairs of Empress Ji, and the reason why she didn't tell me all was because the time had not come.

After all, she and I share weal and woe, and I naturally believe in Qiu'an.

When I arrived at the dark prison, the guards at the door went in to spread the word, and Panshan went out to pick me up.

"Princess, why don't you go in with you?" I said it a long time ago, I went to the secret prison alone to see Jiang Qianchen, and Qiu An was waiting for me outside, but now she is not very relieved and wants to accompany me in.

"Don't worry about it," Qiu An and I showed off the Xuanyue Pei and Buddha grass silk on our bodies, and said to her, "Besides, Aunt Panshan is also inside, so I will naturally be fine." ”

Panshan saw that I trusted her so much, and a sparkle appeared in his eyes.

At this time, Qinghuang also barked a few times next to me, and seemed to be very dissatisfied with me for not mentioning it.

"Yes, with Qinghuang with me, you can always rest assured, right?"

I stretched out my arm, Qinghuang flew over satisfied, and seeing that Qiu An was no longer in the way, I followed behind Panshan and went to see Jiang Qianchen in prison.

The responsibility for the rebellion is not small, Jiang Qianchen's life in the dark prison is not easy, he was tortured very haggard, his hair was unkempt, like a madman.

I was poisoned and assassinated by them, and I was almost killed on the bank of the Qingshui River, and I suffered no less than her in comparison, but now I still feel a little unbearable to see her like this.

"Are you here?" Hearing the voice, Jiang Qianchen didn't raise her head, sitting on the cold ground, the cell she was in didn't even have a small window, the oil lamp in the distance was flickering, and her shadow was stretched in the dim light, and swayed with the faint flames.

There are some rules in the imperial city that cannot be used by outsiders, such as this dark prison, there is no night pearl, there is not even a good lamp, the reason why there is a broken lamp is not to save lamp oil and harshly punish the prisoner, Panshan told me on the way in that this move is to kill the prisoner's thoughts.

The so-called two kinds of crime and punishment, punishment of body and heart, if there is no thought, then the prisoner has no hope and no vitality, and it will be much easier to try the case.

I let out a "hmm", didn't say much, and looked at Jiang Qianchen through the prison door.

"Auntie, you might as well let me speak a few words to her alone. ”

Panshan didn't doubt it much, obeyed my instructions, and reminded me with a solemn expression before leaving: "Then princess be careful, the slave and maid are waiting outside, and you can call the slave and maid if you have something." ”

Qinghuang shouted twice more dissatisfiedly on my shoulder, and Panshan was amused and left respectfully.

After Panshan withdrew, Jiang Qianchen opened his mouth again: "Look at my ugly appearance now, will Your Majesty like it?"

She was still sitting there, not even looking up.

"Your mind is more exquisite than other women, whether His Majesty the Emperor likes it or not, what does it have to do with you sitting here now?"

I know that her participation in the rebellion is not caused by the competition for favor among women, Jiang Qianchen's ambition is not something that ordinary women have.

&

nbsp; When she heard me, she suddenly raised her head and looked at me suspiciously, her eyes full of surprise, and seemed to be very interested in me, "You go on, it seems that you know a lot!"

"What you want has never been the posterior, but the emperor, so your mind has never been in Hesui Palace, nor in Fengyi Palace, but in Chao'an Palace, in this world!" I said what I knew.

She was stunned for a moment, her face was not pierced by my annoyance, the sparkle in her eyes became more and more obvious, and she laughed.

"I can't see it, Princess Suji knows a lot about me!"

Before I could reply, the smile on her face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a desolation.

"Although the Shennong clan is not like your spirit clan, even if it is a royal family by nature, but it is also an important minister in the human world, my father attaches great importance to the power of the dynasty after taking charge, and vows to bring the Shennong clan to the glorious lintel, but he is extremely patriarchal, plus my mother is only his concubine. ”

Jiang Qianchen said that when she looked at me here, I chuckled in my heart, but I didn't speak, I saw her eyebrows jumping, and she seemed to have a smug look.

"What's the matter, it's better than a woman of unknown origin like you. ”

She looked at me deliberately defiantly and said that I knew that she was deliberately provoking me, and I was not fooled, but the green phoenix on her shoulder seemed to shout at her a few times.

"Since I was a child, my eldest brother and sister had, I never had, when I was ignorant, I went to ask my father, but he ignored me, I was annoyed by my begging, and reprimanded me a few words, my mother was a weak woman and had no choice but to cry on the side. ”

"So I knew that I had to rely on myself since I was a child, I thought more when I was a child, I won everything I played, and my brothers and sisters developed the habit of listening to me in everything, even if my father didn't like me anymore, my brothers didn't read as well as me, and their strategies were not as good as mine, and my father didn't use any beatings and scolding, so he was looking at me. ”

"But my mother is not high after all, I am not the eldest sister in the family, and the opportunity to enter the palace will not be my turn, the housemother of the family does not look down on me, and my father does not want me to enter the palace, he originally wanted me to stay in the Shennong clan to help my eldest brother and achieve his hegemony. ”

Jiang Qianchen sighed helplessly when he said this, "So, the concubines are treated like this, I don't think your life in the Water Palace is much better." ”

"Do you know how I got into the Imperial City?" her eyes began to turn into plaintiveness, and she no longer had the same look as before.

"It's my mother, the emperor's intention to draft has just been passed to the people, my mother is planning for me in the future, what can she do as a weak woman, so she ran to the house in front of the housemother and committed suicide, Shennong's chaos, according to the rules, I will pass on to the master's mother, so, I also became the daughter of Shennong's family, so I have the identity of entering the palace. ”

"My mother thought that if I entered the imperial city, I would be able to live more freely, but I didn't want to enter the palace, what is the use of entering the palace, even if the organs are exhausted, what is the use of ascending to the back position, in this harem is no more than the Pingyu Emperor, and there is no part of me as a woman to speak in the previous dynasty, so it is my father who will benefit. ”

"I'm not reconciled, why should women be pawns for men to fight for power and profit, I plan so much for my father's family, and in the end I can't get any benefits, why can't I fight with the sky and fight with life, if I win, I can also sit on the world, if I lose, it's a big deal, what can I do!"

Jiang Qianchen's words, I heard my back cold, I knew she was ambitious, but I didn't expect her to have an unusual past behind her, although she felt that I was not a daughter of the royal family, and even her concubine was not as good, but in fact, I was much better than her since I was a child.
