Lady Changning

Chapter 165 Seize Love, Seize Power, End in Hate (1)

"Who do you call a lunatic?"

Concubine Zhao's words hit Concubine Hui's wound. She couldn't even admit that she was a lunatic, but she understood very well that she would indeed be insane.

"It's you, Gu Hongyi, you are a lunatic. The emperor will not like you, because you are a lunatic, the emperor will abandon you like before, and you will continue to become an abandoned woman in the deep palace and everyone will bully you."

Concubine Zhao's words continued to irritate Concubine Hui, she remained silent, but her eyes kept changing, fragments of her mind flashed one after another following Concubine Zhao's words.

No, she is not.The emperor is hers, and the emperor has agreed that he will not abandon her again. Concubine Zhao Gui is a liar, before and now.She wouldn't believe it, but her heart was thinking uncontrollably.

In the end, she went crazy again.Concubine Hui grabbed Concubine Zhao's neck, she was not as strong as a woman, she seemed to want to break Concubine Zhao's neck directly.

"Concubine Zhao, remember that the emperor belongs to me. You are just a product of guilt, otherwise why didn't the emperor go to you? Because I am back, you don't need it. What's the use of keeping you, It’s better to die.”

"You, lunatic!" Concubine Zhao looked at her in fear, Concubine Hui's voice came into her ears like a ghost, it was very ear-piercing, and the suffocation in her throat made her even more uncomfortable.

"It's hard? I felt the same way back then. I trusted you but was betrayed by you and hurt a little by you. Now it's fair to give back all the pain. If you die, the queen mother will not regret it. You are just a pawn." , the emperor will not be sad, because he still has me!"

Concubine Hui couldn't help but increase the strength in her hands, but was knocked out at the last moment.

"Let's go now."

Huangfu Zimian kept Concubine Hui, and said to Concubine Zhao who was panting.

Concubine Zhao looked at the mother and son in fear, grabbed her dress and ran out desperately.They're all lunatics, they're all lunatics!

Huangfu Zimian waited anxiously for Concubine Hui to wake up, his diagnosis was correct with Xi Changning's conjecture, Concubine Hui was really crazy, maybe even she herself didn't know what was normal and what was crazy.

"Zi Mian, don't be sad." Concubine Hui looked at the guilty Huangfu Zi Mian and comforted her.

"Why don't you drink the medicine I gave you? Is hatred really that important, do you have to torture yourself and me like this?"

How long have they met?He could no longer imagine losing his mother.

"I know I'm sorry for you, but I can't let it go, I really can't let it go. Zimian, just leave your mother alone, everything will be fine in a few days."

"How can it be all right? Concubine Zhao Gui is going out to talk nonsense now, mother, what should you do?" Huangfu Zimian looked at Concubine Hui, her indifferent appearance was completely different from just now.

"Zimian, promise mother, can you leave the palace? I just want to be with your father, can you promise me to leave the palace?"

She knew that she was sorry for him, but now her condition was beyond the limit, and she couldn't live anymore.

"Why are you?"

He couldn't protect her when he was a child, but now he has the ability to take her away, why is she obsessed with the dust of the past?He couldn't agree with what Concubine Hui had done, and finally Huangfu Zimian chose to let it go.

"Mother, tell me, is your father's serious illness related to you?"

Concubine Hui turned her head and remained silent, choosing not to answer.But Huangfu Zimian saw the clue from her eyes, and fled away.

The news of Concubine Hui's madness came from Concubine Zhao, and rumors spread everywhere.Concubine Hui seemed to be ignorant and went about her own business as usual. Some people in the harem observed secretly and could not see any difference. They felt that Concubine Zhao was exaggerating.

"Changning, what do you think of this?"

The third prince knew that Xi Changning and Concubine Hui had known each other for a long time, although he never admitted it, the news from the Queen Mother was very true.

"The two of them have always been at odds, and I'm sick of hearing this."

Xi Changning kept his composure and continued to drink the tea in his hand, knowing that it was not a good thing for the third prince to call her to drink tea.

"I thought Chang Ning would have some good ideas."

"There are no good opinions, but Young Master Yan is not your good confidant, he can always give you advice at critical moments, you might as well ask him."

Xi Changning pointed the finger at Yan Xiufeng. Sometimes what he said was indeed suspicious. He didn't want the delicate thoughts that a man like him could imagine. He always felt that there was someone behind him who was helping him.

"I don't dare. How dare I speculate about the two empresses? I'm afraid the empress dowager is thinking too much, or do you know something?"

He really wondered if he owed Xi Changning something in his previous life and was tortured by her in this life.Because of the third prince's previous suspicions, he never dared to go to Xi Hanxue, for fear of revealing his flaws.

The crime of rescuing Xi Hanxue alone can kill him, how dare he say anything else.

"Xiufeng, go down." Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, the third prince quickly sent Yan Xiufeng away.

Yan Xiufeng glared at Xi Changning and left immediately.

"Changning, I used to ask you if you had a problem with Xiufeng, but now I have to ask again."

At that time, Xi Changning had a thick heart, and no one could get close to him, and the questions he asked were ambiguous and worthless.

"It's just disgusting."

As long as she sees Yan Xiufeng in good condition, she hates it. How can such a man live so comfortably?

The third prince glanced at Xi Changning, and always felt that she was hiding a lot of things, but it would be counterproductive to act too hastily, and he would let her understand his intentions one day.

"If you are looking for Bengong to discuss your subordinates, then Bengong will go back first, and you won't be so leisurely."

"You really don't care about Concubine Hui? You can't hide it from me. Her appearance must have something to do with you."

The third prince asked tentatively.

"There are so many people related to me, why should I care about each of them? Who would have thought of caring about me?"

Xi Changning knew that the third prince was suspicious of her, and she didn't know how to divert his target except for such a temper-like remark.

Seeing Xi Changning leave, the third prince sighed, she was still guarding against him after all.

"Come out."

The slight sound of footsteps behind him caught his attention.

"The concubine sees the third prince."

Xi Lingyan's charming eyes glistened with tears. She hadn't seen the third prince for a long time, and her heart was always in the ice and couldn't extricate herself.

"Where are you hiding and what are you doing?" After all, it was a husband and wife, even if it was the first mistake, but Xi Lingyan's affectionateness would be let down by him.

"The concubine waited when she saw that you and the concubine were discussing things, and had no intention of eavesdropping."

Xi Lingyan was very nervous about what the third prince thought of her, and was afraid that he might misunderstand something.

"Sit down, do you need me?"

"As for Concubine Hui's matter, the Empress Dowager wants to follow her plan, and my concubine is afraid that you have some plans, so I will tell you."

The third prince looked at Xi Lingyan helplessly, at least she was still so devoted to him.

But he didn't understand what Xi Lingyan said.What does the Queen Mother want to do?
"That's right. According to Concubine Zhao's news, the emperor's illness seems to be related to Concubine Hui, so she wants to use her tricks to catch Concubine Hui, so that the second prince will not pose any threat to you."

Xi Lingyan explained the queen mother's strategy in detail.

"Indulging Concubine Hui?"

It's a good strategy, but they have to risk the emperor's safety, do you know how serious this is?Or does the queen mother not care about the safety of the emperor at all?
A bold idea appeared in the third prince's mind. No matter it is true or not, he will be the biggest beneficiary, and he will not hurt his own brother. Is it just fair to the emperor?
When did they position themselves as a person who could control life and death?That person is still the emperor.

"Third prince, I know that you still have a grudge against this concubine, but my heart for you is true. The Queen Mother doesn't want my concubine to tell you about this, for fear that you won't be able to do it, but I am afraid that the queen mother will succeed. The third prince must be controlled by her."

She took refuge in the queen mother for the sake of the third prince, and betrayed the queen mother for him. Could it be that he still can't understand his own intentions?
The third prince looked at Xi Lingyan, her expression did not deceive him.

"Then follow the Queen Mother's wishes."

Since he was a child, he was determined to be unwilling to let others down. Just because he put up with a gentle surface, it doesn't mean that he has no ambition and heart.

The emperor is no longer the emperor, he is now like the husband of an ordinary family, he loves a woman guiltily, protects his favorite son, and ignores anything else.Such a person is no longer fit to be an emperor.

The third prince looked at the cold tea in the cup, smiled wryly, carefully avoided fighting with his brothers, but ended up fighting with his own father.

And Xi Lingyan returned to the third prince's side again, she laughed in her heart, no matter how many times she could return to the third prince's side once.

East Palace
Xi Changning was holding a hand warmer in her hands. Even though the weather had started to improve, her body that was afraid of the cold still couldn't do without something for winter.

But her mind was not on anything around her, she quietly listened to the voice outside the door, hoping that someone she knew would come.

Until late at night, even the entire palace was quiet and there was no sound.

"It seems that I won't be coming back tonight."

She sat in front of the bronze mirror, took off the little crown on her head, her meticulous grooming was in vain, combed her hair casually, and was ready to go to sleep.

A missing voice sounded behind him.

"Just sleeping?"

"you've been drinking?"

Xi Changning frowned, Huangfu Zimian loves to make sweet-scented osmanthus wine, but he is not a person who can get himself drunk, and now he is full of alcohol, unlike him, obviously something happened.

Huangfu Zimian felt that he was already sober enough to appear in front of Xi Changning, so when he heard Xi Changning speak, he collapsed neatly.

Xi Changning didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she would be happy to have an extra stove.A man is a man, she looks very thin, but her weight is not light, and it took most of her strength to put her on the bed.

"You are sure no one will say that you look like a fairy now, but who has seen a fairy?"
