Lady Changning

Chapter 209 Robbing Xi Hanxue

Xi Lingyan was in a good mood seeing that Xi Changning was staying behind closed doors because of the marriage between Huangfu Zimian and Princess Jing, and she was even happier when she thought that her plan was succeeding step by step.She fiddled with the pearl hairpins in the dowry and tried them on one by one.

"Concubine Hua is really in a good mood."

A man's voice sounded behind him, and when he regained consciousness, there was already a dagger across his neck, and the cold light flickered, making Xi Ling's face pale with fright.Reluctantly, his mouth was covered.

"I think you understand who I am, if you shout out, you don't even want to live."

Xi Lingyan nodded knowingly, but was afraid of hurting herself with the dagger.It wasn't until the dagger moved away from her neck that she gasped and glared angrily at the person in front of her, Yan Xiufeng.

"What are you doing? Are you rebelling? How dare you threaten me."

"Rebellion? Isn't this sentence more appropriate for you?"

Yan Xiufeng couldn't understand if he, a martial artist, had any hatred for the Xi family sisters, why did he fall into the hands of these three sisters?
Xi Lingyan hated Yan Xiufeng's disrespectful look, and gave him a contemptuous look. If she didn't need him, she wouldn't negotiate terms with such a person.

"what's up?"

Seeing Xi Lingyan still pretending to be stupid in front of him, Yan Xiufeng couldn't help himself.

"What do you mean to say? On the surface, you say you want to negotiate terms with me, but you are playing tricks behind your back. Where are you hiding Xi Hanxue?"

Only then did Xi Lingyan realize that something was wrong, who hid Xi Hanxue?Today there is no news that Xi Hanxue is missing.

"what happened?"

Yan Xiufeng also noticed that things didn't seem to be what he thought, and Xi Lingyan was behind the scenes.So he told Xi Lingyan exactly about this matter.

Ever since Xi Lingyan threatened him because of Xi Hanxue's affairs, he had never visited Xi Hanxue, but today the maid in Xi Hanxue's yard came to him and said that Xi Hanxue was gone.

The only thing he could think of was Xi Lingyan, if not, then only one person would dare to do it.

Needless to say, the two of them could think of going together. The only thing Xi Lingyan couldn't figure out was that she was always careful, so how could Xi Changning notice anything?
If Xi Changning was following her own plan without knowing it, then wouldn't she be doing this just to think of Huangfu Shenqian to ask for credit?
It is not impossible for Xi Lingyan to have such a radical idea, the most important thing is that her current state of mind is no longer the pure and gentle Xi Lingyan in the past.

In her eyes, Xi Changning is good at whatever he does, and he can win every step of the way. Compared with her, a late enlightened person like her has nothing to worry about.

"General Yan, if Xi Hanxue is really hidden by Xi Changning, I don't think you have any reason not to cooperate with me. She hates you so much that she wishes you to die. Now that you have the handle in your hands, she can't help her." Your status is in front of the emperor, just say two or three words casually, your Yan family is full of families, just waiting to be wiped out."

Originally it was a little flimsy to use Xi Hanxue to threaten Yan Xiufeng, because after Yan Xiufeng knew about this matter, he had not been in contact with Xi Hanxue and could not grasp the handle, but now it has become a good thing for her.

"What do you want?" Yan Xiufeng said through gritted teeth.

"Xi Changning's power should not be underestimated, and you must not be confused by her. Back then, Xi Hanxue was forced to be buried by her advancing and retreating, so if you want to survive, you'd better follow my orders."

Xi Lingyan always felt that she knew Xi Changning better than Xi Hanxue, so when she confronted Xi Changning, she was more cautious. Although she had always been reluctant to fight, she always believed that Xi Changning would be defeated by her in the end, especially Now she looks like she's going to die after being hit hard.

"General Yan, if you wish, this cup of tea can be regarded as the tea of ​​our alliance."

Xi Lingyan knew that Yan Xiufeng had already wavered, his life's glory was about to be ended because of Xi Hanxue, and the only one who could save him was herself, so the feeling of mastering a person's life and death made her intoxicated, no wonder Xi Changning was so addicted to controlling others, From today onwards, she will be Xi Changning's strongest opponent.

She picked up the teapot at her hand, and in a good mood, she even got a glass of water for Yan Xiufeng and handed it over.

Yan Xiufeng knew very well that he was like a turtle among the old man, either to die or to live for others. In the end, he chose to join forces, took the teacup and drank the tea in one gulp.

"General Yan only needs to do his own thing. As for Xi Hanxue's affairs, I will naturally take care of it for you."

In order to stabilize Yan Xiufeng, all these things had to be accelerated.

Yan Xiufeng still feels that a woman like Xi Lingyan seems unreliable, but if he doesn't help her deal with Xi Changning and his party now, then he can only be ashamed of the Yan family, such a deal is full of dangers.

Finally, Yan Xiufeng kindly reminded Xi Lingyan.

"Don't forget that the emperor is not blind."

Huangfu Shenqian has endured for many years, and even has a gentle and gentle appearance from beginning to end. With such a disguise, he has dominated the world since he was young and ignorant. How could this man be blind?

However, Xi Lingyan ignored Yan Xiufeng's concerns. If Huangfu Shenqian really had such thoughts, she would be willing to stop, but he was so devoted to Xi Changning, and now that Mo Lian was even more honored.Who will see her face that worries about the king?

"It's not your turn to care about these things. If you want to survive, you should obediently do the things you explain. Get lost."

She vented all these resentments on everyone, especially Yan Xiufeng, who did not care about any resistance.She is the winner, and she wants to watch Xi Changning lose, just like Xi Hanxue before.

The palace is not full of blood and rain every day, and the rare tranquility is even more suffocating, but there is only one person who seems to be very leisurely, playing the guqin every day, showing that the owner is in a good mood.

The little ears outside the palace wall always use this song to secretly report to their master, but they never see the real expression of the guqin master.

"Drink this medicine."

The soup cup that Mo Lian handed over was very delicate, but when the lid was opened, there was a smell of medicine.Xi Changning knew what was put here without thinking too much.

"Don't worry, others won't be able to see that it's just the tonic soup I gave you." It's actually an anti-fetal medicine.

Xi Changning didn't refuse, she really needed these things to protect her children, but her status was too special, so she couldn't trust anyone except Mo Lian.

Seeing that Xi Changning had finished drinking, Mo Lian immediately summoned Xiao He, gave some instructions, and then let Xiao He go down.Only Mo Lian and Xi Changning were left in the entire courtyard.

Everyone felt that Xi Changning was indifferent. She had never seen many people around her, and she was always alone in the yard, either in a daze or playing the piano. She seemed to be leisurely, but in fact she was much lonely.

"Recently, the emperor has a lot of sympathy around him. I found something that happened to be almost the same as what you asked me to inquire about. The emperor seems to be checking on General Yan."

When Xi Changning heard that he stopped wiping the guqin, his thoughts changed, what did Yan Xiufeng do to make Huangfu Shenqian suspicious?She couldn't figure out what Xi Lingyan could do with Yan Xiufeng.

Seeing that Xi Changning didn't speak, Mo Lian looked around and told Xi Changning what she heard and saw.

"General Yan holds the military power in the palace, and now he is very close to Concubine Hua. Concubine Hua seems to have some kind of connection with the Empress Dowager again. All this makes me very worried."

Yan Xiufeng, Bing Quan, Xi Lingyan and the Empress Dowager, what is the real connection?

"What actions have the ministers of the DPRK and China made recently?"

Seeing Xi Changning's question, Mo Lian tried hard to recall what Eunuch Ji and Huangfu Shenqian said.

"It seems that there are some dependents of Yan Xiufeng inexplicably appearing in the court, and these people should be related to the Empress Dowager."

Xi Changning is not extremely smart, and it is impossible to judge the thoughts of the three people based on these information, but she can be sure of one thing, the empress dowager can use her own power, it has something to do with her own power, she has always been a person who likes to control Woman, if it wasn't for Huangfu Shenqian's secret power reduction in recent years to let her recuperate, she might have to dominate the government affairs.

Then this matter must have something to do with power, but Xi Lingyan loves Huangfu Shenqian so much, why would he tolerate the empress dowager fighting like this?
"I want to see Concubine Hua."

"Concubine Hua is not what she used to be. You will be wary of summoning her like this. It would be better for me to take the lead in this matter."

Mo Lian was always thinking about what Xi Changning said that she would leave the palace, and she couldn't imagine what kind of situation such a woman would be in if she left.

Xi Changning nodded and felt that what Mo Lian said was right. Now that the enemy's motives have not been clarified, don't be reckless.

"When is the Empress going to leave?" The words that were lingering in my heart finally came out.

However, Xi Changning rubbed his stomach, counting the days, as soon as possible, the matter about her in this palace always needs an ending, maybe it's best for her to end it.

"Mo Lian, don't ask."

Today, her voice is soft, and she has changed into a red dress. She is innocent and immersed in the mysterious and romantic color of purple, which also fascinates others.

Mo Lian was also silent, and smiled to herself, no matter what is good, Xi Changning will think of a perfect solution, she may be a little stupid, but this is also an advantage.

Mo Lian started to work very quickly, and after a day passed, she found a name and invited concubines from various palaces to gather together, saying that she wanted to pray for the unborn child.

This kind of blessing has always been the most difficult to refuse, and with Huangfu Shenqian in charge, there are naturally many of them.

"This blessing should be accumulated, otherwise it is impossible to say what will happen."

Seeing that Mo Lian's child was not yet born, Xi Lingyan did a good job, if she hadn't been supported by Huangfu Shenqian, would she be able to do this?Thinking about the inexplicable death of her unborn child because of them, she couldn't swallow this breath.

One of Mo Lian's goals this time is Xi Lingyan, so she can accept how she satirizes her, as long as she is jealous in her heart.

"Concubine Hua was fine, but it's a pity that you were too careless." Fighting back is naturally indispensable.

Xi Lingyan's eyebrows twitched. It was obvious that Mo Lian's words had hit her vital point. The imperial doctor's words seemed to be still in his ears, saying that it would be difficult for her to conceive again. If it weren't for the bond between her and Huangfu Shenqian, her body would have been long ago. Not welcome anymore.

"Concubine Lian, why did you even invite her? The imperial doctor said that the body of Concubine Hua should not be transmitted to others."

Seeing the two concubines having a war of words, some concubines who are brave enough to curry favor naturally have the courage to go up and make some sarcasm. With the imperial doctor's words, it will be a matter of time before Xi Lingyan falls out of favor. Even if she has a prime minister's father, but Rumors outside have long said that Prime Minister Xi never asked about their sisters, especially the concubines.

"Presumptuous! Who gave you the courage to slander me like this?" Xi Lingyan looked fiercely at the concubines behind her, how could she tolerate others exposing her scars like this.

Not only could they not keep their mouths open, but they laughed at Xi Lingyan's emptiness.

"I think whoever is laughing so wildly has no idea of ​​etiquette."

"See Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Empress."

Xi Changning was used to seeing red clothes, but this purple clothes dazzled others.

Seeing this, Mo Lian quickly stopped the concubines from laughing at Xi Lingyan, and started praying with ulterior motives, but there are also sincere people. There are many right and wrong in the palace. This child was destined to be extraordinary from birth. Safety.

There are all kinds of offerings on the table for praying for blessings. There are all kinds of precious and cherished ones. Originally, Mo Lian brought up the idea casually. He thought it would be more casual, but Huangfu Shenqian took it to heart and asked Eunuch Ji to prepare all the offerings. thing.

These things deeply hurt Xi Lingyan's heart. Her child should have received everyone's blessings, and could accept all of this in such a solemn temple, but all of this was accepted by the person who killed him.

Thinking of this, she shed tears and looked at the people kneeling side by side. The backs of the three of them were like three walls, pushing Xi Lingyan close to the road from which she could not turn back.

Damn them.This is Xi Lingyan's only thought.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Hua is sad to lose her baby. This is holy water. You have ninety-five self-esteem and will definitely protect her."

Originally, it was Xi Changning who was the queen who sprinkled the holy water, but unexpectedly she handed it to Huangfu Shenqian. Huangfu Shenqian took a look at Xi Lingyan and readily accepted it.

But Xi Changning had been watching Xi Lingyan's every move from behind him, and after she saw it clearly, she glanced at Mo Lian.Mo Lian immediately groaned, and immediately covered her stomach.

Huangfu Shenqian, who was doing the act of sprinkling the holy water, immediately stopped, handed the bottle containing the holy water to Mr. Ji, and went to check Mo Lian immediately.

"what happened?"

"This child is skinny, always moving." Mo Lian said with some embarrassment.

"Concubine Lian, this child has been so skinny in just a few months, she must be a little prince." Several concubines immediately went up to please, and they also wanted to show their face in front of Huangfu Shenqian.

Only Xi Lingyan, she looked at Huangfu Shenqian and Mo Lian resentfully, with a slight murderous look in her eyes, maybe she sensed that Xi Changning was looking at her, so she immediately closed her eyes, and went up to check Mo Lian as if caring.

These seemingly inadvertent things were all taken into consideration by Xi Changning, Xi Lingyan was still too emotional, it's no wonder she had experienced so much, the change of mood can be imagined.

Although Xi Changning's long-standing doubts have received vague answers at this moment, she still cannot believe that Xi Lingyan will embark on such a path.

When everyone was related to Mo Lian, Xi Changning dragged Xi Lingyan aside.

"Second sister advises you to take care of yourself. The beginning of the eldest sister is just a warning."

Since Xi Lingyan's betrayal, Xi Changning hadn't called her second sister for a long time, and in the end, he couldn't bear to hope that she would stop.

"Is the empress afraid? But the concubine is not afraid of anything anymore. Ever since you brought me into this palace, the former Xi Lingyan, who was out of touch with the world, has died."

There was resentment and pain in Xi Lingyan's eyes, and Xi Changning understood it all too well when she was caught in a woman's body like this, and it was precisely because of this that Xi Lingyan could not turn back.

In Xi Lingyan's eyes, if the enemy she regards as not dead, her life would be worse than death. What fear is there for someone who is not even afraid of death?
"Xi Changning, you are ridiculous, you are the least qualified in this world to persuade others to behave themselves."

Because Xi Changning has never cared about doing things for herself, she has come to a position that women in the world envy, and she is actually persuading others to do things for themselves, which is really ridiculous, and her life of Xi Lingyan is even more ridiculous.

It was the first time that Xi Changning showed a surprised expression in front of Xi Lingyan, she was right, wasn't she?If she is good at doing things for herself, then she should still be the fourth young lady who allows others to bully her.

Hucheng
Today, many Hu people mixed in in Hucheng, and those officials who were full and not doing anything just thought they were Hu merchants entering the city, but Zimu, who was hiding among them, saw something strange.

"It's from your elder brother." Even Xi Lin recognized several familiar faces.

Even if Xi Lin didn't say anything, Zimu could tell that they were so impatient that they had already acted on their own.These officials didn't even conduct interrogation on such a big man and put them in directly. They were really not afraid of death.

"Let's follow them first to see how many people there are, and then make plans."

After thinking about it, Zimu still planned to see his brother's plan clearly before going to discuss with Xi Changning. She only saw that Xi Lingyan was speeding up, and it seemed that his brother couldn't bear his temper.

"I won't go, I'll just watch Xi Hanxue. She has been making a fuss these days, if this continues, everyone around will be quarreled by her."

Xi Hanxue didn't know if she had already figured out something, she kept making noises, even though she asked her what was wrong, she still refused to tell the real reason, but with her sudden irritability, she must have noticed something.

Zimu thinks this is good, and everyone can't leave here, otherwise Xi Hanxue's thoughts may be plotting someone.

It was night, and it was difficult for Zimu to go to Fengzao Palace to find Xi Changning when it was still. He slipped into Xi Changning's bedroom while the guards were not paying attention. In the dark space, relying on the slight tremor in the air, he The exact location of Xi Changning was quickly found.

She sat on the phoenix seat, which was the standard behavior when she couldn't figure it out. It seemed that something made her figure it out.

"No matter what you're thinking right now, there's something trickier. He Lianhao is here."

When he saw He Lianhao, he was also taken aback. He didn't expect that he would do it himself. This time he came to the capital because he was worried about him, so he felt that he came to check the situation here.
