After being reborn in the Mass Grave, she overturned her predecessor's power

Because of the queen's special summons, Jiang Xuening got up at midnight and started dressing up, preparing to enter the palace for an audience.

The Jiang family members had different reactions to this. The old lady looked at her face and hesitated to speak. In the end, she could only sigh, "You can take care of yourself."

Sitting in the carriage, she was extremely calm.

We finally meet, Xiao Shujin!

When we arrived at the palace gate, the sky was slightly bright.

Shangguan Wan was waiting at the door in person, "The queen sent me to greet the princess."

"It's work."

Jiang Xuening followed her, walking on the road she had walked countless times before. The red walls and blue tiles were still the same as in her memory.

Things are changing and the stars are changing. Only the palace remained standing, unchanged.

Shangguan Wan lowered her voice and said, "The Queen has been having nightmares every night recently and is not in a good state of mind."

She nodded slightly, without any fluctuation in her eyes.

When passing by Changle Palace, her eyes were dark for a moment.

When we were young and deeply in love, He Lianxuan once said, "When I ascend to the throne, I will build a Changle Palace for you. I hope you will be happy and worry-free for a long time."

It was a pity that she was shot and killed by him outside the city wall before she entered the palace.

"Who lives there?"

Shangguan Wan followed her gaze and said sarcastically, "That is the most special and luxurious palace in the palace. It is said that there are relics related to the late Princess Chen in it."

"Death is like a lamp going out, and belated love is worthless than grass."

Probably this topic was heavy and taboo, so the two of them didn't talk the whole time.

When they arrived at Fengyi Palace, Jiang Xuening was waiting outside, and Shangguan Wan went in to report.

After about a stick of incense, she was chilled by the wind, and then the sharp eunuch's voice came, "Princess, Princess Mingyue has an audience."

She suppressed all the emotions in her eyes and walked in calmly and without squinting.

Xiao Shujin was wearing a queen's dress and a phoenix crown, sitting in the back seat, with extraordinary bearing and grace.

Gu Mingyue's cousin... right?

Since she was able to win against Gu Mingyue back then, she is not afraid of a low-quality fake now.

A woman's clothes were fluttering and her steps were light.

Step by step... slowly getting closer.

That face gradually became clearer in the morning light, looking so familiar yet strange.

Xiao Shujin opened her eyes unconsciously and dug her nails into her flesh. The atmosphere in the entire hall was mysterious and quiet, and you could hear a pin drop.

Jiang Xuening bowed her head and said, "I have met the Queen."

"Head up!"

There was a bit of arrogance and youthful vitality in those eyes, which looked very much like the Gu Mingyue of the past.

If she hadn't investigated the person in front of her and determined that she was the daughter of the Jiang family, many years younger than Gu Mingyue, she would really have thought that the person kneeling in front of her now was Gu Mingyue.

Xiao Shujin's eyes slowly turned red, "Sure enough, she looks very similar to Mingyue. When I see you, I think of Mingyue."

Jiang Xuening lowered her eyes, "My family has said since I was little that I look like my cousin."

"Get up quickly, I and Mingyue are sisters, you don't need to be polite."

Xiao Shujin gave her a seat and asked the palace maid to serve hot tea. Seemingly casually, he told her some old stories about Gu Mingyue.

She listened carefully but rarely answered.

Xiao Shujin took a sip of tea and said calmly, "You are the adopted daughter of the King of Qingzhou. Have you stayed there for a few years, right?"

"Originally, I went there to recuperate, but by some accident, she was regarded as my adopted daughter."

"My second brother, Xiao Mufeng, unfortunately fell ill and died on his way back to Beijing from Qingzhou. The princess must have seen him."

The temptation started so quickly. Xiao Mufeng traveled thousands of miles to Qingzhou three years ago to get rid of her. His death was naturally carefully planned by her.

She said without changing her expression, "I met Mr. Xiao once at the banquet, but I'm not familiar with him."

"Really?" Xiao Shujin's tone was a bit cold, "I suspect that Mu Feng died of murder rather than a so-called illness."

"That's really a pity. The second young master must have been very young when he died."

When they met for the first time, Xiao Shujin stopped testing briefly and did not continue to test.

She also behaved very normally from beginning to end. The confrontation ended silently and was not thrilling.

Soon the queen's confidant, the female officer Hong Xiu, came in and said, "The queen's wives have arrived and are waiting for the queen's summons."

As the empress of the world, she has to accept the audience of hundreds of officials and wives on such days, which is a manifestation of supreme power. She has always enjoyed this feeling.

Xiao Shujin said, "I am going to be busy. Princess, please go down and rest first. We will have many opportunities to see you again in the future."

Hongxiu stood aside respectfully, raised his eyes to look at her, his expression changed slightly, and he quickly lowered his head.

Jiang Xuening bowed and left. After leaving the main hall, she looked back at Fengyi Palace and narrowed her eyes.

How did Xiao Shujin sit in this position with the blood all over the Gu family? She was going to pull her down while the blood was all over the Xiao family.

Now, it's just the beginning.

She wanted Xiao Shujin to watch as her blood relatives and the people she cared about died tragically one by one, but she was powerless.

In the main hall, the hands under the wide sleeves of the red sleeves could not stop shaking.

She has been with Xiao Shujin since she was a child. It can be said that she has met Gu Mingyue countless times. She even participated in the destruction of the Gu family.

Xiao Shujin looked at her pale face and chuckled, "It's really similar, right?"

She pretended to be calm and said, "I am not the person you are now, but I am already a queen."

"Yes, there is no more bright moon in the world."

She would never allow a second person like that to go out.

Hongxiu lowered her head and asked, "Does the empress think that the death of the second young master, as well as the deaths of the lady in the palace and the young cousin, have anything to do with her?"

"We can't find any evidence at the moment." Xiao Shujin said firmly, "But my second brother died on the way back from Qingzhou, and my aunt and cousin died after she returned to Beijing. I don't believe in coincidence."

"Is she doing this to avenge the Gu family?"

"Who knows..."

Hongxiu said worriedly, "We can't let her go like this."

"Ben Gong has a good idea."

Xiao Shujin lowered her eyes. Although Jiang Xuening behaved normally, judging from her age and birth, there was absolutely no way she could be Gu Mingyue.

But she felt inexplicably that maybe Gu Mingyue was really back.

In a shocking and bizarre way.

After all, her ability to reach where she is today is due to her bloodline and adventures.

What if Gu Mingyue also has an adventure?

She doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, but there are many wonders in the world.

After just one acquaintance, Xiao Shujin was already murderous. Regardless of whether her old friend came back or not, she would not allow the situation to get out of hand.

Things are different now, and she is not afraid even if Gu Mingyue comes back.

"After the banquet is over, ask Jinse and Xiao Wuji to come into the palace to see me."

"Yes, ma'am."

Hongxiu breathed a sigh of relief, and summoned the two of them to meet him to go on a killing spree.

As long as Jiang Xuening lives with that face for a day, it will always make people feel uneasy.

There are a lot of substitutes in the emperor's harem, who knows if they will suddenly be confused by Jiang Xuening.
