After Hua Fei was reborn, she became the white moonlight of Pangju

Upon hearing this, the queen sneered slightly.

"Understood, back off."

"Yes."

The young eunuch turned around and quickened his pace to leave.

He was afraid that the Queen would vent her anger on him.

Jianqiu looked at the table full of steaming dishes and consoled the queen,

"Madam, please eat some while the food is still hot."

The queen took a quick look at the table full of delicious dishes, most of which were cooked by her herself.

I thought I could sit down with the emperor, have a meal, drink some wine, and chat.

Unexpectedly, all of this was ruined by Concubine Hua.

In the past, when the Emperor doted on Concubine Hua, he often neglected the Queen in this way.

At this moment, the queen once again felt the pain of being left out.

The sense of domination that was deeply influenced by Concubine Hua made the Queen's eyes more and more hostile.

"Jianqiu, since Concubine Hua is ill, we should go and see her."

"Your Majesty, why do you have to suffer this?" Jianqiu disagreed.

Whenever Concubine Hua was sick in the past, the Queen always came back angry.

"No, this time is different. Concubine Hua will not have many good days left. I should be more tolerant of her."

Seeing that there was no way to convince the queen, Jianqiu had no choice but to accompany her.

As soon as she entered Yikun Palace, the Queen heard the Emperor's voice.

"Shilan, tell me what you want to eat and I will ask the kitchen to prepare it for you immediately."

Songzhi said at the side: "My queen has always been curious about what the dragon, phoenix and tiger soup from Lingnan tastes like, but unfortunately she has never had the chance to try it."

The emperor waved his hand and said, "Go and make arrangements."

Songzhi looked embarrassed and did not move.

The emperor frowned, "What's the problem?"

Songzhi knelt down on both knees. "The ingredients for the Dragon-Phoenix-Tiger Soup are available in the Imperial Kitchen, including snakes and chickens, but tigers are not easy to come by."

Hearing this, the emperor clenched the Buddhist beads in his hand tightly.

"That tiger, is there anything that can replace it?"

Songzhi hesitated to speak.

The emperor waved his hand, "You can say whatever you want."

Songzhi mustered up her courage and said, "It's hard to hunt a tiger in a short time, but if there is a cat in the palace, it can be used as a substitute."

When the emperor heard this, he slapped his thigh and said, "Arrange it."

Songzhi was still kneeling and refused to get up. The emperor frowned and was already unhappy.

"Is there not even a cat in the palace?"

Songzhi said: "Cats are naturally smart and good at running. It is not easy to catch them. Besides, if it is just a stray cat outside, I am afraid it may have a serious disease. If you eat it, it will be bad for your health."

At this time, Zhou Ninghai said, "I just remembered that there is a cat in Jingren Palace that is very well raised. But it's a pity that it cannot be eaten."

The emperor frowned and asked, "Why can't I eat it?"

Zhou Ninghai sighed, "Your Majesty, this is the child raised by the Empress. Even if I had a hundred guts, I wouldn't dare to touch that beast."

The emperor crossed his Buddhist beads in silence.

He also remembered that the Queen did have a cat.

On weekdays, the queen would occasionally carry him out.

But most of the time, the cat was locked in a small room and he rarely saw it.

He stood up and paced back and forth, thinking about whether there was any good way to make the queen agree to contribute the cat.

At this moment, a long tune from Jiang Fuhai was heard outside the palace.

"The Queen is here!"

The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly and a plan came to his mind.

He raised his eyes and saw the queen walking towards him.

Although she is old and her beauty has faded, the queen still has her charm.

The emperor stepped forward, took the queen's hand, and asked, "Why are you here so late at night?"

"I heard that Concubine Hua was ill, and I was worried, so I came to take a look."

"The Queen is really thoughtful."

"Managing the harem and taking care of the sisters in the harem is my duty."

"I am very pleased that the Queen is sensible." The Emperor smiled and nodded, then asked directly, "I heard that you have a cat in your palace?"

The queen smiled and replied, "Yes, I have a cat. It has kept me company for quite a while when I was bored in the palace."

After hearing what the Queen said, the Emperor swallowed back what he was about to say.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?"

Hua Fei on the bed began to have a fever and talk nonsense again.

Songzhi walked over, knelt beside the bed, sobbing.

The emperor turned his head and saw the haggard look on Concubine Hua's face.

He gritted his teeth and said to the queen, "Hua Fei is ill and wants to have a meal of dragon and phoenix soup. The cats in your palace are almost well-fed, so give them to the imperial kitchen."

The queen didn't expect that the emperor would be so direct.

She suddenly didn't know what to do.

She just stood there blankly, staring at the man in disbelief.

She had clearly said it just now, that the cat had been with her for a long time.

However, the emperor still chose to kill his cat because Concubine Hua wanted to drink Dragon, Tiger and Phoenix Soup.

"Your Majesty, is there no other way?"

She stared at the man in front of her without blinking, trying to read words of anxiety or guilt in his eyes.

But after looking for a long time, she only saw the man's eyes looking at her, which were getting colder and colder.

"Your Majesty, don't be afraid, don't be afraid!" Songzhi found that Concubine Hua was twitching slightly, so she quickly covered her body with a quilt and gently massaged her palms.

When the emperor saw that Concubine Hua was having nightmares again in a coma, he made up his mind.

He stared into the queen's eyes without any emotion, but said in a commanding tone,

"Take the cat to the imperial kitchen as soon as possible."

The forced smile on the queen's face faded away in an instant.

"Your Majesty, is this really necessary?"

The emperor became impatient.

He growled in a low voice.

"It's just a cat, how can it compare to the life of Concubine Hua!"

The Queen sneered and murmured, "Indeed, she is just a cat. How can she compare to the status of Concubine Hua in the Emperor's heart?"

"Then Queen, why don't you go quickly!" the emperor scolded in a low voice.

At this critical moment, the queen actually quarreled with him over a cat, which he could not tolerate.

"Okay, I will go get the pine nuts and send them to the imperial kitchen."

The queen bowed deeply to the emperor, turned around, and strode away.

The emperor's cold voice came from behind.

"Su Peisheng, take a few people with you to help the queen."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Su Peisheng received the imperial order and quickly followed the queen.

Jianqiu looked back and saw Su Peisheng following behind her. She lowered her voice and spoke indignantly.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor actually wanted to kill Songzi, who has been with you for a long time, just because Concubine Hua wanted to drink a bowl of soup!"

The queen's scarlet eyes had already turned into cold black pupils.

"Matsuko should indeed die. No clues should be left behind in the incident with Noble Lady Fucha. I want to thank Concubine Hua for reminding me of this matter."

When Jianqiu heard this, he felt a chill on his back.

"Come on, Songzi, come here."

The queen returned to Jingren Palace, took the food, and carefully called Songzi.

"Meow meow meow~"

When Matsuko heard the queen calling it, it came over with a whimper.

When she got close to it, the queen picked it up and inserted a silver needle directly into its body.

Songzi's eyes suddenly turned black and she meowed, trying to break free from the queen's arms, but the queen held her down tightly.

"Meow!"

Matsuko glared at the queen angrily and used her last bit of strength to break free.

The queen didn't expect that even after being poisoned by Ma Fei San, Song Zi still had so much strength, and she was at a loss for a moment.

Songzi seized the opportunity and swung a sharp cat claw directly at the queen's face.

"what!"

A sharp scream was heard from Jingren Palace.
