August 25th, good luck.

It has been exactly ten days since the "Crow's Scourge". Jiang Xuening was reading in the study, but seemed a little distracted.

Qinghe pushed open the study door and said excitedly, regardless of saluting, "Today morning, all officials jointly submitted a letter asking the emperor to depose the queen!"

"Bang!" Jiang Xuening closed the book in her hand, finally reaching this moment.

Not to be outdone, Caiyue brought new news, "There is news from the palace that the queen has gone crazy and Fengyi Palace is like a cold palace."

Jiang Xuening breathed out slowly, this time the "Jackdaw" plan was considered a complete success.

Bai Yu, who was sitting on the window, said, "The spices brought back from the glacier are really useful."

Back then, they used special spices to attract ice crows on the ice field, and killed all the people Xiao Wuji brought with them in one fell swoop.

This time Jiang Xuening handed the improved version of the secret medicine to Shangguan Wan and brought it into the palace, and Shangguan Wan arranged for someone to do it.

The harem was full of strife, and countless palace people died every year. In the eyes of those nobles, it is just a slave who dies when he dies.

But they also have friends, relatives, and lovers. There will also be heartache and regret.

Xiao Shujin has managed the harem for so many years, so of course there are many people who hate her.

Every year during the sacrificial ceremony, you need to take a bath and wear phoenix clothes. The water that Xiao Shujin bathed in that day and the underwear she wore were contaminated with spices.

When it was time for the sacrifice, the sun was shining brightly. As the sweating spices began to evaporate, Feng'er's body was covered in spices and attracted a group of crows.

Everything was calculated just right and happened as a matter of course.

Jiang Xuening looked at the bird landing on Bai Yu's shoulder, "Feng'er has made a great contribution this time."

Bai Yu, "I taught you everything well."

Jiang Li, who had been silent all this time, frowned slightly, "The Xiao family has been unexpectedly quiet. There has been no movement."

She sneered, "When something like this happens, everyone's eyes are fixed on the Zhonggong and the Xiao family. Naturally, the Xiao family doesn't want to provoke public anger."

I'm also afraid of the emperor's anger, after all, this matter is full of weirdness and has the word "unknown" attached to it.

The fall of a dynasty has always been accompanied by visions. When the Ziwei star is born, it will be accompanied by auspiciousness.

What the Xiao family fears most about this incident is the emperor's rejection, and they are even more afraid of the royal family settling their scores afterwards.

Jiang Xuening said calmly, "Just wait...when everything settles, all parties will take action."

After all the officials wrote to abolish the throne, He Lianxuan did not go to court for three days.

The weather was gloomy that day, and Eunuch Gao, the great eunuch, led his men to knock on Fengyi's door.

Perhaps because of a premonition, Xiao Shujin, who has been going crazy lately, is particularly sober today.

Wearing the queen's formal attire and a phoenix crown, she was waiting on the phoenix throne. Eunuch Gao held a bright yellow imperial edict in his hand.

In the name of heaven and earth, the emperor issued an edict:

"The queen is not blessed by destiny. She is punished by heaven for being unkind. She is considered unlucky. She is not worthy of inheriting the destiny of the mother and the world. The queen is now deposed and demoted to a commoner."

It finally came. Xiao Shujin raised her neck without shedding a single tear.

Eunuch Gao sighed and said, "Please ask your Majesty to take over the order."

Xiao Shujin said word for word, "I accept the order."

"Please tell me, father-in-law, that I want to see Your Majesty again."

Eunuch Gao said impartially, "Your Majesty has ordered your wife to recover from her illness in the palace, and she is not allowed to go out without permission unless called upon."

This is her confinement, and she still lives in Fengyi Palace. However, the Phoenix Seal was taken away, leaving only a few palace attendants in the huge Fengyi Palace to take care of her, while all the others were transferred away.

The once illustrious Fengyi Palace was instantly reduced to a cold palace following the abolition of the imperial edict.

Xiao Shujin's phoenix robe and crown were all taken away, and she stood alone in the hall, as if she had become the concubine again who had nothing to eat in the Xiao family.

"Does everything stolen have to be repaid in the end?"

She obviously worked so hard and even killed her only friend in order to get this position.

Hongxiu comforted her bravely, "The Xiao family and the eldest son will not ignore the queen."

She sneered, "I'm afraid they think it would be better for me to die, so as to pave the way for the Xiao family."

But she will not die. As long as she is alive, there is still hope.

She wants to find out the murderer behind her murder and cut the murderer into pieces!

With the imperial edict, the news of the abolition spread throughout Shengjing instantly.

Everyone in the Xiao family looked ashen, but Xiao Linfeng looked as if nothing had happened. He asked, "Who do you think Wuji did this time?"

Xiao Wuji, "I don't know."

"The method is good. Xiao Shujin could have been poisoned directly, but he chose this method."

If Xiao Shujin dies, the deceased will only gain the emperor's pity. The Xiao family could even take the opportunity to send another woman into the palace.

But the queen was ominous, casting a shadow over the entire Xiao family. As long as Xiao Shujin is alive for one day, the emperor will think of the "Crow Disaster" and feel sorry for the Xiao family. Political opponents can also seize this point and make repeated fuss.

In a sense, Xiao Shujin was more lethal alive than dead.

"Killing people are done invisibly. This layout is very good. It is impossible for the Xiao family to have a queen or even a concubine."

Xiao Wuji just listened quietly and did not express any opinions.

Xiao Linfeng looked at him with a half-smile, "Do you think it could be Jiang Xuening? It seems that since she returned to Beijing, the Shangguan Xiao family has been experiencing misfortunes one after another."

"Whoever the young master thinks is who he is."

Xiao Linfeng glanced at him and saw that he had disabled his right hand that could no longer hold a sword. "Who disabled your right hand during that trip to the snowy mountains?"

"I don't know, it's an unknown force."

"Heh..." Xiao Linfeng chuckled lightly and did not continue to press, "Don't look at Jiang Xuening's face and be so mesmerized that you become dizzy."

Xiao Wuji's expression finally showed a slight fluctuation, "She liked to call you Third Brother the most during her lifetime. She always said that you were a role model for a noble family, and no one else could match your magnanimity."

"What were you thinking when you pushed her into the abyss with your own hands?"

On the surface, He Lianxuan killed Gu Mingyue out of spite, but in fact, it was Xiao Linfeng who pushed the Gu family and Gu Mingyue step by step to the point of no return.

Xiao Linfeng looked at the pond and said coldly, "She is blind."

"He is indeed blind."

Xiao Linfeng said expressionlessly, "Send word in, I want to see Xiao Shujin."

Jiang Yunxue Ning was not surprised at all when she received the news of the abolished queen. She is even more looking forward to the follow-up direction.

"Tsk tsk, from Princess Chen to the Queen, whoever marries Lian Xuan will be unlucky. Everyone has his or her own misfortune. Of course Xiao Shujin deserves it." Bai Yu couldn't help but sigh.

Jiang Xuening said, "I hope that the empress, who is used to fine clothes and fine food, can adapt to the life in the cold palace as soon as possible."

For people like Xiao Shujin, living without all the lowliness is much more painful than dying.

She asked her to open her eyes wide and watch how she destroyed everything she cared about and how she destroyed the Xiao family with her own hands. She wanted her to live a life worse than death, and it would be too cheap for her to die now.

"Keep an eye on the Xiao family. When the limelight passes, the Xiao family should take action."
