After returning from rebirth, the eldest sister of Hou family destroyed her household registration b

"Of course it was arranged by Gu to temporarily change the leader of the Royal Forest Army team. Gu was still able to do this. As for why he was not poisoned..."

Xiao Jinzhi did not finish her words, but looked at Concubine Xue beside Emperor Xiao.

In Xiao Emperor's stiff look, Concubine Xue broke away from his hand and said slowly: "Because I gave His Highness the antidote."

"Zhi'er, what nonsense are you talking about!" Xiao Di's eyes widened and he looked at the person in front of him in disbelief.

"Your Majesty, since you told me about the power you have been hiding in your hands, I have passed the news to His Highness the Crown Prince. And of the antidote you gave me yesterday, I also secretly gave part of it to His Highness the Crown Prince, so that he can go easily. Configure more.”

Concubine Xue's tone was calm, as if she was just telling the most ordinary things.

But every word was like a sharp knife, cutting bloody Emperor Xiao's flesh.

Although he heard what Concubine Xue said with his own ears, he still didn't want to believe it, "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible. My people have been keeping an eye on all the movements in the prince and the palace. How did you contact him!"

Zhi'er has been staying in Zhaoxia Palace, not even leaving with the maids around her. It is impossible to have a chance to see Xiao Jinzhi and give him the antidote.

"In the plum forest, I once discovered a secret passage. The late emperor used that secret passage to see Concubine Mei. So since then, I have tried to find all the secret passages in the palace, and one of them is the general passage. To Zhaoxia Palace." Xiao Jinzhi said.

He had already sent people to hide in the secret passage. After Xiao Emperor revealed the last bargaining chip in his hand, Concubine Xue found an opportunity to pass the news to them through the secret passage.

And the reason why they held back and pretended not to know anything was just for the sake of the scene just now, so that Emperor Xiao thought he knew everything and no longer had any pretense.

Emperor Xiao looked at Concubine Xue blankly, and after a long time, he said in a hoarse voice: "Have you been lying to me from the beginning to the end?"

Zhi'er said that she regretted it and that she wanted to start over with her and grow old together. Is all this false?

"I'm sorry." Concubine Xue lowered her eyebrows, "I was indeed lying to you. From the moment I asked Qiu Shuang to send the plate of cakes to the imperial study room, what I wanted was... for this moment."

She and Chu Huanyan had already had the intention to cooperate a long time ago, but later Xiao Jinzhi was sent to suppress bandits, and due to various things, there was no contact between them for a while.

Although she stayed in Zhaoxia Palace, she had been paying attention to the previous dynasty.

Not long ago, news came from the imperial study room that the emperor and Xiao Jinzhi were at war with each other. Her intuition told her that maybe the time had come.

Therefore, she sent someone to summon Chu Huanyan.

Although at that time, the emperor's eyes were watching in Zhaoxia Palace, so it was difficult for her and Chu Huanyan to say much. But she had already made preparations. Sitting on the swing, folding her sleeves, she quietly handed the letter to Chu Huanyan.

In the letter, she stated that she would find a way to get close to Emperor Xiao next. No matter what Chu Huanyan and the others wanted to do, she could cooperate with them and cooperate with them.

"After getting the news from the empress, we used the secret passage in the palace to meet in private again and discussed everything about the birthday banquet." Chu Huanyan said.

At first, she and Xiao Jinzhi did plan to reveal everything at the birthday banquet and confront Emperor Xiao head-on, but that was because they had no other choice, and even if they did, they were not completely sure.

After seeing Concubine Xue's note, they changed their minds. Through Concubine Xue, they could more clearly find out whether Emperor Xiao had any other bargaining chips.

In order for Concubine Xue to completely win the trust of Emperor Xiao, they also agreed to destroy Emperor Xiao's autograph letter and at the same time let Concubine Xue hold them hostage.

Fortunately, everything went as they expected. After the birthday banquet, Emperor Xiao completely believed in Concubine Xue and told her the follow-up arrangements and the final bargaining chip hidden in his hand.

After hearing everything, Emperor Xiao seemed to have been drained of most of his strength in an instant, and his whole body no longer had the majesty he had just before.

He stared at Concubine Xue. At this moment, it seemed that he was no longer an emperor, but just a heartbroken husband.

"Zhi'er, do you hate me so much that you want me to be ruined and be infamy for eternity?"

Concubine Xue raised her head again and looked directly into Emperor Xiao's eyes, "Yes. I do hate the emperor."

"So you are eager to let me die!" Emperor Xiao suddenly reached out and grabbed Concubine Xue's arm, "Do you know how much I believe in you, and I am willing to tell you everything, I... "

"What about the life experience of His Highness the Crown Prince?" Concubine Xue suddenly interrupted Xiao Emperor, with a hint of sarcasm in her smile, "Didn't the Emperor tell me this?"

Emperor Xiao choked, "That's because..."

"Because the emperor feels that there is no need to tell the concubine about this. But in the final analysis, how can the emperor easily tell the concubine about such important news that can affect the throne?"

"No, that's not the case. I just want to deal with Xiao Jinzhi first, and then slowly tell you the news." Emperor Xiao eagerly denied, "Zhi'er, except for you, I have never been like this. I have loved someone. Do you know how happy I am these days? As long as you can stay with me, I am willing to do anything, but why did you betray me!"

"I just said it, of course it's because I hate you." Concubine Xue looked at Emperor Xiao with clear hatred on her face, "Compared to my sister, I actually hate you more. I have hated you for so many years. I'm trapped in a deep palace. I hate you for refusing to let me go in the name of love. I hate you for turning our sisters against each other and leading to a fight to the death..."

Concubine Xue took a deep breath, and her whole body couldn't help but tremble.

"You keep saying you love me, giving me all kinds of rewards and favors, but from beginning to end, you never gave me the freedom I wanted most."

Sometimes I think about it, after all these years of being trapped in the palace, she is no longer the Wei Qingzhi she used to be.

After all, now she can push her own sister to death step by step, and she can also force a smile and pretend to say that she wants to grow old together with the person in front of her.

These were things she had never been able to do in the past.

Sometimes when she looked at herself in the mirror, she felt that she looked disgusting. Not only because of the scars on his face, but also because of his changed heart.

Seeing the hatred shining in Concubine Xue's eyes, Emperor Xiao's heart completely fell to the bottom at this moment, as if it was wrapped in thousands of wind and snow, and even the last trace of heat had dissipated.

He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say. In the end, he could only force himself to turn around and look at Xiao Jinzhi, gritted his teeth and said:

"Even if I lose, I am still the emperor and the emperor. Do you still want to kill the king in public?"
