The Legend of Rebirth of the Demon Empress

Chapter 266 Old Resentment

He was still a living person just now, when news of his death suddenly came.

Lin Zisu couldn't accept it for a while, and confirmed again: "What is the cause of death? Where did you find it?"

Seeing that Lin Zisu was so concerned about this matter, Xie Xi was a little surprised, and after repeating the rumors about the forbidden army just now, he asked, "Susu, is there something hidden here?"

Lin Zisu remembered what the two maids had said to her, and every word and every word still echoed in her ears.

"Miss Lin, the two of us sisters who provoked the empress back then were supposed to die. It was the empress who begged for mercy from the empress dowager, so she survived by luck. This life has long belonged to the empress. We have lived in the palace all these years. Stealing life is to hope that one day, I can tell the things of that year."

"Over the years, we have been lurking in the Changning Palace and met His Highness Dun Wang several times, but His Highness Dun Wang seems to be hostile to us. We have approached us several times, but we have returned without success. Today, we can only take you with us. Arrived here."

"It is true that Concubine Li died of illness back then, but it is inseparable from Concubine Zhang Xian. Because Concubine Li and Concubine Zhang Xian are getting pregnant, from the very beginning, Concubine Zhang Xian has bad intentions and always takes the opportunity to find Concubine Li Damn it's not."

"Fortunately, His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince is fateful. Concubine Zhang Xian did not succeed in plotting several times, so she pretended to be a good person and talked sweetly to the Empress Dowager, saying that the two lived together and could take care of each other."

"After Concubine Li moved in, Concubine Zhang Xian showed her true colors. She ordered her like a palace maid, trying to find ways to torment her. The root of her illness also came from that time."

"Before Your Highness was born, Your Majesty suffered from lung-cold syndrome. After giving birth to Your Highness, she was weak and bedridden with the root cause of her previous illness. Concubine Zhang Xian said that Your Majesty deliberately pretended to be sick, and even the imperial physician did not allow her to come."

"Later, seeing that the empress was seriously ill, Concubine Zhang Xian was afraid that the empress would suffer from some incurable disease, so she put her in the Zhaixing Pavilion and left her to fend for herself."

"It wasn't until the empress died of illness that His Majesty gave the empress the position of concubine, but she has already gone, so what's the use of this title?"

"Miss Lin, after you marry His Highness, you must persuade him to find the Yuxiu who used to serve by his side. Over the years, Concubine Zhang Xian said more than once that that Yuxiu may have something to do with your empress. some of his life experience."

"Also, servants and servants have heard that there are many women raised in King Dun's backyard. Your Highness, please be careful. Among these people, there are those who are placed by the Empress Empress and those who are placed by Concubine Zhang Xian. They are all monitoring His Highness. every move."

"Our servants also kept some relics of the empress and hid them on the beams of the attic of the Star Picking Pavilion. If His Highness goes out of Beijing in the future, please ask the girl to tell His Highness, so that His Highness can also have a thought."

"Meet us today, our sisters have finished speaking, and the girl will not see us again in the future."

Thinking of what the two maids said to him at the end, Lin Zisu vaguely understood.If it was as expected, the two court ladies had long thought of going to death.

After they said these words, they felt that their wish had come true.The two of them obviously hated Concubine Zhang Xian deeply, and when they were dying, they did not forget to plot against Concubine Zhang Xian.

Both of them were maids of Changning Palace, and when they invited Lin Zisu, they also used the banner of Concubine Zhang Xian.

They died in Changning Palace, no matter whether it is the emperor or inside and outside the harem, they will all believe that Concubine Zhang Xian instructed the maids to plot Lin Zisu failed, so they had to kill Lin Zisu to silence them.

"Fourth brother, if I said that the two maids died because of you, would you be a little strange?"

Xie Xi shook his head and said, "There's nothing strange about it. They were all maids who used to be with my mother and concubine. I called you to Changning Palace today, presumably to tell you something about me."

Lin Zisu didn't intend to hide it from Xie Xi at first, except for Yuxiu's matter, she told Xie Xi exactly what the two maids had said.

Lin Zisu spoke anxiously, and at the end, she asked again: "They said that the attic of the Zhaixing Pavilion has the remains of Concubine Li. Fourth brother, do you want to take it down and put it away?"

From the beginning to the end, Xie Xi listened calmly, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

Hearing Lin Zisu talk about "relics", Xie Xi suddenly laughed and said, "I don't need them to remind me, I've already put away those things."

Lin Zisu remembered that Xie Xi said in Zhaixing Pavilion that day that since he became sensible, he would often be alone in Zhaixing Pavilion.

After staying for a long time, it is not difficult to find the things hidden in the Star Picking Pavilion.

Xie Xi is not the kind of person who is really ignorant, and she might have found out about her mother's life experience a long time ago.

And that Yuxiu is where Xie Xi's heart knot lies, and it seems that it is not the time to be open and honest.When Xie Xi's convulsions are completely cured, it will not be too late.

As for the women in Xie Xi's backyard, Lin Zisu didn't like them at all.

Xie Xi's convulsions still occur from time to time, those women naturally have nothing to do with Xie Xi.

At first, I thought it was an actress Xie Xi raised, but when I heard that it was someone else's spy who was placed next to Xie Xi, I would not be so polite.

Lin Zisu made up her mind that when she got married, those girls raised in Xie Xi's backyard must find a reason and get rid of all of them.

Even Lin Zisu didn't feel it, she hadn't thought about getting married a few days ago.In just one day, I couldn't help but think about things after getting married.

Such a thing seems incredible, but it is logical.

After all, she is a person who has lived a new life. In the last life, although she has always been pampered and pampered, compared with girls of the same age, she has a lot more experience.

Especially with the deep-seated experience of life and death, for her, everything in this life is precious.

For Lin Zisu, the Changning Palace incident was just an episode.In the eyes of others, it has an unusual meaning.

This time the emperor acted very quickly, and on the same day he issued an order to reprimand Concubine Zhang Xian, saying that she was "indifferent to people's hearts and disregarding human life". Except for retaining the position of Concubine Xian, all the rewards in the palace were taken back.

"Yao'er, that foolish concubine Zhang Xian made such a big mistake in her panic. She is no longer a threat. As long as your mother and concubine's position in the palace is stable, your position as the crown prince will also be stable."

In Chang'an Palace, when she heard that Concubine Zhang Xian was being punished, Concubine Tang Zhuang looked proud.

Xie Yao was not as excited as Concubine Tang Zhuang, and there was always a trace of worry in his heart.

Although the emperor's decree to establish a crown prince has been spread throughout the country, to this day, the emperor neither intends to amnesty the world, nor has he ordered the Ministry of Rites to prepare for the ceremony of establishing a crown prince.

This means that in the eyes of the ministers and the common people, his crown prince has no justification at all.
