The Apo Master dressed up as Concubine Ling and killed the Ruyi sisters
Chapter 56 Revisiting old matters
Li Yu came in and reported, "Your Majesty, Concubine Mei is here."
"Let her in." said the emperor.
When Concubine Mei walked in, there were no palace maids or eunuchs serving her. There were only the emperor and her in the entire Yangxin Palace.
Meipin's heart trembled. The emperor really began to doubt her!
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you! I wonder why you suddenly summoned me?" Concubine Mei paid her respects to the Emperor.
The emperor did not answer but asked, "How have you been doing in the palace these years? Why do you look so haggard?"
Meipin knelt on the ground, gently stroking her face which was no longer beautiful and youthful, and smiled at herself.
"Since I lost my child, I have been left with physical sequelae, feeling depressed and my appearance damaged. I have become withdrawn and strange due to this blow, and I am even more unworthy of the emperor's eyes."
"I have no children and no favor. I am like a lonely soul wandering in the palace. Who would care if I look haggard?"
The emperor sneered and asked, "Who brought you to this state? Who caused you to have so much resentment and dissatisfaction that you have nowhere to vent? Who is the root cause of all these events?!"
Meipin just thought that the emperor already knew that the deaths of the Seventh Prince and Empress Xiaoxian were related to her.
Anyway, she came here just to confess the matter and drag Concubine Jia to hell with her. As for the Emperor's questions, she didn't even think about the Empress Dowager's side.
Meipin said: "I was young and frivolous. I won the emperor's favor and became pregnant with the dragon fetus. I looked down on others and thought highly of myself. Therefore, I offended many people in the palace. Some people disliked my mother and me!"
"You actually thought of such a vicious method as feeding cinnabar to me to harm me and my child! I have been pregnant for ten months and I have never seen my poor child."
"I hate it, I resent it, but I can do nothing! Until one day, someone told me who was the murderer of my child, and I believed it out of anger."
"She killed my child. Even though her status is beyond my reach, I still want revenge! Whoever killed my child, I will kill her child. This is called tit for tat!"
Meipin suddenly became excited, but the emperor heard something unusual in her words.
Tit for tat? Isn't this what Empress Xiaoxian said when she was unconscious? Did Concubine Mei deliberately provoke Empress Xiaoxian on the boat that day?
Who killed Meipin's child? Was it Empress Xiaoxian? Whose child did Meipin kill?
Could it be that Yongcong's sudden contraction of smallpox was not an accident but a man-made one? !
The emperor thought of a lot of things at once, and stared at the emotional woman kneeling there in astonishment.
The emperor was shocked and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could Empress Xiaoxian, who is so virtuous, harm your child?!"
Meipin calmed down and smiled bitterly, "Yes, Empress Xiaoxian would not do such a vicious thing. I was deceived and became an executioner in vain, making wedding clothes for others! I hate it so much!"
The emperor listened to Concubine Mei's words and felt that there must be something hidden. "Who deceived you? What did you do? Was it the Queen Mother? Why did the Queen Mother want to harm Empress Xiaoxian? Tell me clearly!"
Queen Mother? Queen Mother!
Meipin suddenly realized that it might be because she reported the astronomical predictions of the Imperial Observatory to the Empress Dowager, which made the Emperor realize that she was planted by the Empress Dowager.
Concubine Jia somehow found out that the Emperor summoned her, and out of guilt she wanted to poison him to kill herself!
Meipin was shocked and terrified. Her identity as a spy was exposed, and she had said so many head-losing words to the emperor. How could she still have a chance to survive? !
"Your Majesty, do you know everything?"
The emperor snorted coldly, "If the Empress hadn't let it slip, I would have never known that the concubine who has served me for so many years is actually a spy!"
"Now that the truth has been revealed, do you want to pin all the blame on the Queen Mother?!"
Meipin came to her senses and felt that there was something strange in the emperor's words. How could she dare to frame the empress dowager? !
Suddenly, Meipin realized that the emperor had misunderstood her meaning. Now that things had come to this, there was no need to hide it any longer.
Meipin knelt on the ground and apologized, "I am indeed someone the Queen Mother has placed beside the Emperor, along with Shufei and Qingpin. But what I just said has nothing to do with the Queen Mother."
The emperor frowned, "If there is anything else I don't know, tell me everything immediately!"
Meipin said: "I want to report Concubine Jia!"
Concubine Jia? The emperor became more and more confused the more he listened. Why was Concubine Jia brought up again?
The emperor's patience was about to run out. He didn't want to play any more tricks with the criminal in front of him, so he was about to deal with Concubine Mei.
At this moment, Li Yu outside the door reported loudly: "Your Majesty, Concubine Ling said she wants to see you for something important."
The emperor was feeling quite annoyed and was about to say no, when he suddenly remembered that Yan Wan knew clearly that he would summon Meipin in the evening.
Yan Wan is usually a steady person. If there is no urgent matter, why would she rashly ask for a meeting at this time?
When Meipin saw Yanwan coming, she immediately said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, Concubine Ling is here for the matter between me and Empress Xiaoxian. Please let Concubine Ling in!"
The emperor knew something big was going to happen, and he immediately said, "Let her in!"
Yan Wan entered the palace alone and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you!"
"What urgent matter do you have that requires you to see me at this time?" asked the emperor.
Yan Wan turned her head and glanced at Meipin, and Meipin nodded at Yan Wan as if she had made a desperate move.
Yan Wan reported, "Your Majesty, I want to report that Concubine Jia was trying to poison Concubine Mei!"
After saying this, without waiting for the emperor to ask, Yan Wan told him the whole story.
Meipin cried, "If it weren't for the fact that Concubine Ling felt something was wrong and came to Yonghe Palace to kindly remind me today, I would have died of the poison a long time ago!"
"All the evil things that Concubine Jia has done will be buried with me when I die! I know that I have committed serious sins and death is not a pity, but before I die, I just want to know who killed my child!"
The emperor asked, "Wasn't it Imperial Noble Consort Huixian who killed your child? What did Empress Xiaoxian and Consort Jia have to do with it?"
Meipin confessed everything, "When I was pregnant, I offended Imperial Noble Consort Huixian, and Imperial Noble Consort Huixian was loyal to Empress Xiaoxian. After Imperial Noble Consort Huixian died, Empress Jiafei told me that Imperial Noble Consort Huixian wanted to harm me because Empress Xiaoxian ordered her to do so."
"Because she didn't want me to give birth to the first child since the Emperor ascended the throne, she wanted to kill the child in my belly!"
"Empress Jia also brought Mo Xin, who was with Imperial Noble Consort Hui Xian, to see me. At that time, Mo Xin had already contracted smallpox, and she hated Empress Xiao Xian because of Imperial Noble Consort Hui Xian."
"Mo Xin went to find the Queen and Concubine Yu first. They didn't dare to take action, and then told me the so-called truth. I was furious, so I decided to work with Mo Xin to assassinate the Seventh Prince!"
