Get to Know Your Ex-Girlfriend

On the day of the autumn hunting, the sky was bright and clear, and it was a rare and comfortable day.

The emperor was wearing a riding outfit, with a smile that was hard to see for many days on his face. The ministers who could ride and shoot also changed into riding and shooting equipment, and the other ministers stood aside to cheer.

Wu Yanqing didn't bring any concubine with him when he came out of Qiuhun this time, not even Concubine Xi, whom he thought caring in the past.

As an emperor, he stumbled one after another because of women. He was clearly not a beauty-obsessed fool, but accidents happened repeatedly. When he thought of the issue of heirs, Wu Yanqing became irritable. There is no food to pay, and I am forced to continue the work, and I feel pain in the bottom.

He squeezed his fists and dispelled the miscellaneous thoughts in his mind. Thinking of his arrangement today and what he would see later, he felt a burst of joy.

He endured hard work for nearly four years, and finally wanted to uproot the Xin family from his presence.

He didn't know if it was the blessings he cultivated in his previous life that he could meet such a wonderful person as Qu Zhi'an in this life.

Not to mention beautiful, she is also very smart, and even the ability in the court is first-class, and she can force the left minister to retreat so quickly.

Xin Lan, who was in the dark, looked at the emperor's complacent look, with a smile on his lips.

In fact, if it wasn't for the cooperation of Prime Minister Zuo, Qu Zhi'an's actions might not have been so fast. It now seems like an incident of two or three months.

Wu Yanqing was also really defenseless, he didn't think about why the power of the left minister was so easily disintegrated, but felt that Qu Zhi'an was powerful, and the left minister should have such an ending.

Prime Minister Zuo, who was notified by Xin Lan, knew that there would be an arrangement today, but he still pretended not to know anything, waiting to be framed, and stood underneath and said something nice to the emperor.

The emperor looked at Prime Minister Zuo and sneered in his heart.

Zuo Xiang looked at the emperor, waiting for a good show in his heart.

Xin Lan was dressed in black clothes for assassins and covered her face with a black scarf, standing on a tall tree with a bow and arrow in her hand.

She took only two arrows, and two arrows were enough.

An arrow is all right, but Xin Lan won't let him pierce his heart with an arrow.

Wu Yanqing shot the prey according to his own plan, and a group of guards and eunuchs followed behind to pick it up, but Wu Yanqing got deeper and deeper, and those people behind couldn't keep up, only a few were chasing after him.

Wu Yanqing whistled, and dozens of men in black rushed out from the forest.

"Escort!"

The leading imperial guard pulled out the knife from his waist and yelled.

Wu Yanqing pretended to be invincible and injured his arm on purpose, and then those assassins pretended to be stabbed by him and rolled aside.

Wu Yanqing's expression was flustered, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Xin Lan squinted her eyes, set up her bow and arrow, and aimed at her target.

In the chaos, Wu Yanqing heard the sound of piercing through the air. He turned his head suddenly and found an arrow heading in his direction. Before he could react, the arrow pierced into his thigh.

Wu Yanqing was shocked and angry, this is definitely not the person he arranged.

But before he could react, the second arrow followed and pierced into his other leg accurately.

"Send someone to chase!"

Wu Yanqing endured the pain and asked people to chase him quickly.

Those who rushed over chased in the direction of the arrow, while others picked up the injured emperor and rushed to find the imperial physician.

Xin Lan retired and disappeared into the forest with her bow.

That group of people wanted to chase her, how could it be possible.

Zero Nine: The host is great, I just took a look, and the positions on both sides are symmetrical!

Xin Lan changed out of her black clothes in the hiding place, took the outer robe in her hands, and headed towards the Jade Moon Palace.

Chunyue and Sitong were very bored embroidering in the yard. Since the master went out from time to time, they seemed to be very busy. They didn't have much work to do, and they just talked to each other every day. Sometimes Sitong read a book to Chunyue. , Sitong knew some characters, but Chunyue didn't. Sometimes Chunyue taught Sitong how to embroider, just to pass the time.

The two of them vaguely knew what was going to happen, but they couldn't tell exactly what was going to happen.

After Xin Lan came back, she handed the rolled up clothes to Chunyue, asking her to fold them and put them back in the closet.

The next step is to wait.

Xin Lan didn't leave the palace either, but waited for news in the palace.

Some secret news palace people must not be able to find out, Xin Lan directly asked Ling Jiukai to relay it live.

At this moment, the emperor was still treating his legs in the autumn hunting field. Because of the assassination of the emperor, the scene was very chaotic.

Prime Minister Zuo didn't know that Xin Lan would really make a move. He was shocked when he heard that the emperor was seriously injured, and looked at Qu Zhi'an from afar.

Qu Zhi'an showed him a faint smile, and Prime Minister Zuo heaved a sigh of relief.

As long as everything is under control, Xiang Zuo thought that the fact that the emperor was really injured should have a lot to do with Qu Zhi'an, or in other words, it had a lot to do with Xin Lan who was behind Qu Zhi'an.

Zuo Xiang couldn't help sighing when he thought of his daughter who had become a stranger to him.

Obviously she was not like that before, and I don't know when it changed.

But it's okay if it has changed, if it is still the same as before, the situation is probably not what it is now.

Qu Zhi'an walked into the tent and looked at Wu Yanqing, who was pale. The imperial physician below was sweating profusely, preparing to draw an arrow.

Wu Yanqing almost passed out from the pain, but she still held on.

He looked at Qu Zhi'an calmly, not only because of why he was a little flustered.

But the next moment he found that Qu Zhi'an's face was full of concern, and the breath in his heart still didn't let go, he always felt flustered.

The arrow was pulled out, and blood flowed out. The imperial doctor quickly sprinkled the medicine powder, and then wrapped it with a layer of gauze.

Qu Zhi'an was watching his miserable situation there, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

It's almost the same, when she sits in the position of the left minister, she can let Xin Lan do what she wants to do.

The emperor was carried back to the palace, and the guards were taken to Dali Temple for interrogation.

After a few days of torture, the Minister of Dali Temple knelt down in front of all the officials and said bluntly that the assassin had not spoken the truth. At this time, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple stood up and confronted him, saying that the assassin had been recruited, but the Minister of Dali Temple felt that the assassin had not yet told the truth , or forcibly tortured.

The emperor was full of anger and asked Shaoqing of Dali Temple to tell who the assassin recruited. As soon as the word "Left Prime Minister" of Shaoqing of Dali Temple came out, the whole court was in an uproar.

The emperor looked at his legs that could not move, and with a gloomy face, he sent Prime Minister Zuo to prison again.

This time, no one dared to intercede with Prime Minister Zuo. Wu Yanqing was sitting in the imperial study, touching his leg, still brooding in his heart.

Who sent someone to hurt his legs?

The assassin's archery skills were superb, if he wanted to assassinate him, he could have taken his life directly instead of shooting through his leg deliberately like this.

Wu Yanqing couldn't figure out why, and the investigators didn't have any clues at all, so this matter can only be left as it is.

But these can't stop Wu Yanqing's good mood, because everything is going according to his plan.

It went very smoothly, but Wu Yanqing felt a little uneasy for some reason.

That uneasy feeling came from nowhere, reminding him that something was wrong.

Wu Yanqing combed carefully, but found nothing wrong, thinking that he might be overthinking.

The downfall of the Xin family was no small matter. Prime Minister Zuo was already locked up in a prison. In order to avoid suspicion, Dali Siqing was temporarily dismissed from his post at home. The others were happy, but the Xin family was not very good.

After hearing the news, Xin Long was already panicked in the harem.

She thought that since she had been in the palace for so long, she should have learned to be calmer, but now that the matter is serious, and the fate of their Xin family's children is at stake, she couldn't calm down at all, and wanted to find her aunt, but she was forced to With his feet grounded, he could only walk around in a hurry like an ant on a hot pot in the Changqiu Palace.

Wu Yanqing knew Xin Long's reaction, but he was a little happy in his heart. The Xin family is panicking now, and the more panicked they are, the happier he is.

It was also at this time that Wu Yanqing thought of a Xin family whom he had forgotten for a long time. Since that person was demoted, he had only seen her once, and he still had bad thoughts.

Now that I think about it, I don't need to worry about that at all. Anyway, the Xin family is gone, and she has nothing to do with it.

Thinking of the relationship between husband and wife, he will let her stay in the cold palace for the rest of her life.

Things were going on in an orderly manner. When the weather became colder, Zuo Xiang's verdict came down. Although it could not be proved that Zuo Xiang sent someone to assassinate the emperor, there was still suspicion. Zuo Xiang was dismissed. It is not immune, those who are demoted are demoted, and those who are demoted are demoted.

On the day Zuo Xiang was released from prison, the emperor came to see him.

Zuo Xiang didn't live well in prison, he became much thinner, and when he walked out of the prison, he was dressed in plain white clothes, like an ordinary old man.

"On the day when you were on the rise, have you ever thought about today?"

Wu Yanqing approached and whispered next to him that although he was sitting in a wheelchair, his momentum remained undiminished.

The emperor's leg wasn't completely broken, it was only temporarily bad for walking.

With a calm expression, Xin Sheng cupped his hands at the emperor.

"I have thought about today since the day your Majesty ascended the throne, and now I have nothing to say, so I wish you, Your Majesty, that every year you have today and every year you have today."

Xin Sheng bowed, and after saying this, he walked forward.

Wu Yanqing frowned behind his back, the old man's words made him feel uneasy again.

But looking at the courtiers in the court, his uneasiness was dispelled again.

The big tree that had blocked him in the past finally fell down in front of him.

The old left prime minister resigned, this position cannot be left vacant. As everyone expected, Qu Zhi'an took up the post, and the scenery was unparalleled for a while.

Qu Zhi'an dealt with another adult who came to make friends, and the warehouse in the mansion was full of gifts.

"It seems that I came at the wrong time, Mr. Zuo Xiang is busy."

A figure appeared in the courtyard, naturally it was Xin Lan who did not enter through the gate.

"Alan, you're laughing at me again, come and sit down, it's too tiring to deal with people."

It would not be an exaggeration to say that her house is full of people today, Qu Zhi'an is very tired from coping.

"Take a break, there should be no one around at this time."

Xin Lan took a seat beside Qu Zhi'an, and a servant immediately brought in a cup of tea.

"How is the palace? When do you plan to do it?"

"Let me figure it out, how about tonight?"

"good."

The two smiled at each other and said nothing.

Today is the middle of the month, and the moon at night is exceptionally round.

Wu Yanqing was lying on the bed, suddenly felt thirsty, and called Mei An several times, but no one answered.

He frowned, and shouted again impatiently.

A gust of wind blew in, making his face change.

Mei An used to guard the door, even if he was not on guard, there would be other eunuchs there, but now the door is open, but no one answers, which is very strange.

Wu Yanqing felt his heart beating in a panic, his legs were inconvenient to move, so he could only squeeze the brocade quilt tightly.

The sound of light footsteps came over, making his heart tighten.

"Who? Who's there!"

No one responded to his words, and the candles in the temple were still on, but it didn't give him the slightest sense of security.

A figure gradually came out from the darkness, Wu Yanqing saw that face, his eyes widened.

"Xin Lan? How could it be you? How dare you run out of the cold palace without authorization!"

He yelled sharply, trying his best to hide his panic.

Xin Lan walked up to him step by step, and looked at him from top to bottom. Her eyes seemed to be able to see through people. After reading it, she let out a disdainful sneer.

"why are you laughing?"

Wu Yanqing became a little angry from embarrassment.

"Your Majesty is so pitiful. How can I have any prestige in the past? How prestige was when I humiliated people in the palace, saying that I can't have children, can you, do you have any children now? What's more, why can't I conceive?" You are pregnant, don't you know the reason clearly?"

Xin Lan did not hide the disgust between her brows, and deliberately put on a mean look, exactly the same as Wu Yanqing used to look.

"How do I know the reason why you can't have children? Somebody, take this person down!"

Hearing what Xin Lan said, Wu Yanqing only felt a beat in his heart, and the panic of being discovered became more obvious, but he pretended to be calm and shouted loudly.

There was the sound of footsteps coming from outside, Wu Yanqing was overjoyed, and the joy on his face was even stronger when he saw that it was Qu Zhi'an, but the smile froze on his face the next moment.

At this time, Qu Zhi'an should not have appeared here.

"You guys join forces to harm me!"

"Your Majesty's words are really funny. Who harmed whom? Do you really think I don't know about the things you did? Let me recall for you how you knocked me out at the banquet that day. Is it about drugging her?"

Wu Yanqing was very astonished, staring at the two women in front of him.

"So you know..."

These words were not addressed to Xin Lan, but to Qu Zhian.

"Yes, I knew a long time ago, Your Majesty, you are such a filthy hypocrite, a real villain, you are obviously that stinky mouse, but you still pretend to be noble, do you know how ridiculous you are in my opinion?

With a sneer on his face, Qu Zhi'an stood beside Xin Lan.

"How dare you say that to me! Alright, Qu Zhi'an, it turns out that your previous appearance is deceiving. I really have raised a white-eyed wolf. I gave you all your power. If it weren't for the fact that I have a good impression of you, As early as the day of the imperial examination, your identity as a woman was exposed and you were killed, and now you are allowed to act presumptuously in front of me!"

Wu Yanqing blushed, his neck was thick, and he almost roared with trembling hands.

Before Qu Zhi'an could speak, he heard Xin Lan slapping her hands next to her.

"Your Majesty's pursuit is wonderful, then have you ever thought about it, if I didn't marry you Fifth Prince, and you didn't rely on our Xin family, do you think you can beat your brothers and get to the current position? You are so vicious that you drugged me when I was a bride, and now you should return these things."

In fact, Xin Lan didn't really want to say these lines, she always felt weak, but it was these lines that made Wu Yanqing understand to death.

"Hong Huan! Dong Huaixi! Meian!"

The emperor called these names, but his heart became colder and colder.

No one answered, looking at the faces of Xin Lan and Qu Zhi'an in front of him, the yell just now was like a slap in the face, and it slapped him hard on the face, causing burning pain.

"Why don't you stop screaming, keep screaming, and see if someone will come in to save you."

Xin Lan took the time to say that she deliberately changed her voice, and she saw Wu Yanqing's face change drastically.

"It's you that day!"

The eerie voice of the old man that Xin Lan deliberately used reminded Wu Yanqing of that terrifying night that he would never forget.

"It was me, and it was me who hurt your legs."

Xin Lan said happily, watching Wu Yanqing's face getting more and more gray.

Qu Zhi'an didn't know what happened, but vaguely guessed that it was Xin Lan's revenge.

"You are not Xin Lan, who are you!"

Wu Yanqing's mind was spinning fast. He didn't understand others, but Xin Lan knew it thoroughly. When did Xin Lan know that kind of weird martial arts, let alone have the courage to do such a thing.

"Of course I'm Xin Lan, and it's true."

Xin Lan crossed her arms and said very calmly.

"What do you want?"

At this point, Wu Yanqing knew that it was useless to shout or plead, so he quickly calmed down. His legs could not move, and even if he could move, he might not be able to match Xin Lan. They dared to come here in such a blatant manner, which showed that the palace Already under their control.

"What we want, you will know soon."

Xin Lan approached and knocked him unconscious.

"As planned."

Xin Lan looked at the unconscious person on the bed, and said to Qu Zhi'an next to her.

The next day, the emperor was seriously ill and was unable to attend the early court.

The people from the Tai Hospital went one after another, and then came out of the bedroom sighing.

For four or five days in a row, His Majesty was seriously ill and unable to go to court, so the personal eunuch Mei An passed down an imperial decree, asking Prime Minister Zuo to take over the court temporarily.

No one in the court doubted it, after all, Prime Minister Zuo had always been favored by the emperor.

The emperor was seriously ill, and the nobles from various palaces could not visit him. Although they said they were dissatisfied, there was nothing they could do.

Concubine Xi became very anxious in the palace, her nanny was working in the imperial hospital, she went to ask about the situation, but nanny just said that the situation was not optimistic.

She finally saw Xin Lan, Concubine Concubine, and Concubine Man falling down one after another, but now something happened to the emperor.

Her biggest backer is the emperor, if the emperor falls, she will definitely not feel better.

But no matter how you inquire about the news, you can only get the news that the emperor is seriously ill.

Meian dutifully guarded the door, not letting anyone in.

There is no emperor who is seriously ill in the palace, he is just a stand-in.

But for the sake of the head on his neck, Meian knew what to do.

Qu Zhian was busy approving the memorial, while Xin Lan was in the palace, looking at Wu Yanqing who looked like a dead dog in front of him.

She locked Wu Yanqing in a room with chains. Every day someone came to deliver food to him, but they didn't give him chopsticks and spoons, so he could only eat with his hands.

At first, Wu Yanqing broke the bowl angrily, and after a few days of starvation, he couldn't stand it anymore.

Xin Lan pushed open the door and looked at the embarrassed man jokingly.

Wu Yanqing's eyeballs were cloudy and he hadn't seen the light for a few days. When he saw Xin Lan walking in, he squinted his eyes.

"I thought you had a lot of backbone, but it seems that's all."

Wu Yanqing saw who was coming, and rushed over, but instead of biting, he begged for mercy, with a flattering smile on his face.

"Lan'er, I know I'm wrong. I've always been wrong in the past. I deserve to die. I shouldn't have done those things to you. Let me out, okay? I'll let you be the queen again. Harmony day, okay?"

"Of course... not good."

Xin Lan dragged out her tone, and seeing Wu Yanqing's dim eyes turned into disgust, she chuckled.

"Wu Yanqing, Wu Yanqing, why do you think I'm still as easy to deceive as I used to be?"

Xin Lan thought he was really interesting, and she felt too good about herself.

Wu Yanqing shrank back and stopped talking.

Xin Lan looked at him pretending to be a turtle, and called the people outside the door to come in.

"Hong Huan?!"

Wu Yanqing clenched his fists when he saw his imperial guard standing at the door.

"Do you still remember how he wanted to treat me that day? He was the one who knocked me out, oh, one more time, I believe you will never forget that night."

"What do you want?"

Seeing Xin Lan's expression, Wu Yanqing couldn't help flinching.

"Whatever you thought at the beginning, I thought so. It's just that I may do it more absolutely and more thoroughly than you do."

Xin Lan shook the bell, Hong Huan's eyes became dull.

"I buried a silver needle in his waist. I don't know if it will affect that aspect. You should take it well. If he can't satisfy you, it will be the same if I find someone else."

Xin Lan finished speaking in a leisurely manner, turned around and walked out, the controlled Hong Huan rushed towards his former master, Xin Lan closed the door, also blocking Wu Yanqing's desperate cries.

She patted the ashes on the hem of her skirt, she knew this before, so why did she do it in the first place.

It wasn't until noon the next day that Xin Lan appeared in that room.

The thick musky smell mixed with the smell of blood produced a disgusting smell.

Xin Lan covered her nose, shook the bell, and Hong Huan got up and stood aside.

Wu Yanqing's eyes were completely dull, his body was full of things left over from the tyranny, and his whole body seemed to have lost its vitality and was on the verge of death.

"How miserable."

Xin Lan sympathized very perfunctorily.

Wu Yanqing seemed to have not seen her, still looking in the direction of the void.

"Why? Is this not enough?"

Xin Lan looked at Wu Yanqing, this person's psychological quality shouldn't be so bad.

It's just that he was locked up hungry for a few days and then went back for a little revenge, and he was still alone and not a group of people, why did he look like this?

With his appearance, Xin Lan didn't even want to do anything, and she couldn't arouse her interest at all.

"Sooner or later..."

Wu Yanqing stared at Xin Lan suddenly, with vicious eyes like a ghost, muttered something like this, and passed out.

"There is no such day."

Xin Lan didn't want to do anything for such a person, so she transported Wu Yanqing out of the palace and put him in a special place.

There, even a proud person would have to be rubbed off abruptly, let alone Wu Yanqing, who was not very strong in the first place?

Xin Lan's side was making moves, and Qu Zhi'an's side was also speeding up.

The emperor was seriously ill for half a month and couldn't hold on anymore.

Mei An took out the imperial decree and read out the emperor's last wish.

The emperor passed the throne to the child of the third prince and dismissed the harem, but he missed Concubine Xi and asked her to accompany him.

No matter how unbelievable Concubine Xi was, no matter how much trouble she made, it would be of no avail. She was sent to guard the imperial mausoleum and was forbidden to leave for life.

The child of the Third Prince is a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy with a rather calm appearance, and was specially chosen by Qu Zhi'an and Xin Lan.

The new emperor enthroned, pardoned the world, dismissed the former emperor's harem, and respected the deposed empress of the cold palace as the mother empress. As soon as this move was made, there was a lot of discussion in the previous court.
