Concubine's true colors

Chapter 189 new enemies
When Gu Qingge left Yanqing Palace, everyone noticed it not long after, so Shen Wenqing had already brought the palace people to search for her in the surrounding area, and even Xiangping went out to find someone.

Concubine Liang and Mrs. Gu, because they were discussing business matters, they still didn't come out of the bedroom.

Therefore, only Xiao Jinxuan, Zhou Xianrui, and Gu Qingping were left in the main hall.

Now, half an hour has passed since Emperor Ming and Empress Xue left, so whether it is the broken glazed jug or the cakes and drinks for the family banquet, they have all been cleaned up and removed.

At this time, Zhou Xianrui ordered the palace staff to close the gate of the main hall. Seeing that there was no one else present, he frowned and looked at Xiao Jinxuan with some concern.

"Miss Si, you don't need to worry about my seventh brother. Father has always been partial to him. Although he hurt Concubine Hui in public today, I think he won't be severely punished."

Hearing this, Gu Qingping, who was standing by Zhou Xianrui's side, also quickly said comfortingly:

"Yes, Miss Jinxuan, Xianyu has acted recklessly since he was a child, and he has done more extreme things than this, and the Holy One has always let the past go, so don't worry, it's you who almost drank poisonous wine just now, Can be frightened."

Seeing the two people in front of her looking at her with concern, Xiao Jinxuan smiled and shook her head, and said calmly:
"Your Highness, Mr. Gu is worried, don't worry, I didn't think wildly, besides, the holy came here to rescue His Royal Highness, although Jinxuan has been worrying too much recently and often loses her composure when doing things, but such a simple thing I don't care about. I can still see clearly, so I'm not worried about Yu Wang."

Recently, Xiao Jinxuan has been exhausted due to the ups and downs in her relationship, Zhou Xianrui is naturally aware of this, and during this time, the behavior of the other party, just as Xiao Jinxuan herself said, is indeed much more out of normal than in the past.

But now looking at Xiao Jinxuan, there was a faint smile on her lips, and she hung up again. Even in recent days, her tired eyes had returned to the coldness of the past. Zhou Xianrui knew that the Fourth Miss Xiao he knew had already lost her state. Adjusted, back again.

Gu Qingping, who was at the side, looked at Xiao Jinxuan now, and he also clearly felt that the other party seemed to be significantly different from the family dinner just now.

Especially the other party's whole body showed a kind of calm and composed aura, which was not even the same as that of Empress Xue just now. This discovery really surprised him.

And Xiao Jinxuan has already walked to the window of the main hall, looking at the scenery outside, she said in a deep voice:

"Since I came to the capital from Yangzhou, the fights inside and outside my mansion have never stopped. Now I thought I could live a stable life for a few days, but Empress Xue wanted to poison me again. I have never met the empress. , she will attack me, it must be because of Prince Tai, it seems that this prince really does not intend to be kind to me, if this is the case, then I have nothing to worry about, I, Xiao Jinxuan, want to see, In the end, who will live and who will die!"

At the beginning, Xiao Jinxuan's voice was still very soft, but as the anger in her heart was ignited, when she spoke the last few words, not only was her voice full of murderous aura, it made people unbelievable when they heard it. Such harsh and decisive words were actually uttered from the mouth of this gentle woman in front of him.

Seeing Xiao Jinxuan's demeanor, Zhou Xianrui didn't think it was strange. After all, he had already seen the other party be more ruthless than this.

But Gu Qingping was a little stupefied at this meeting, because including this time, he and Xiao Jinxuan had only met twice, but in these two times, the other party gave him the impression that he was decent and dignified How could he have imagined the image of the daughter of a family, Xiao Jinxuan would show such a cold and bloodthirsty side in the blink of an eye.

And Zhou Xianrui and Xiao Jinxuan, from Yangzhou to the present, have joined forces to form alliances several times, so they have an incomparable understanding.

Seeing the other party's words like this now, Zhou Xianrui knew that something happened at the family banquet just now, and that Miss Xiao Si was really angered. The other party's anger was obviously going to be vented on Empress Xue and Zhou Xiantai.

Regarding this point, Zhou Xianrui is naturally happy to see it succeed. After all, the suppression of Empress Xue's mother and son will severely damage the strength of the prince's faction. What's more, Xiao Jinxuan's status in the commander's mansion is not what it used to be. The reason why their prince's party can't beat the prince Pai, isn't it because the other party has the support of Xue Xiangfu.

And if Xiao Jinxuan starts to deal with Empress Xue's mother and son, she must find a powerful ally, and then the princelings will be the best choice for the opponent.

At that time, the princeling party can help Xiao Jinxuan, and the other party can also turn the commander's mansion into the crown prince's greatest support. At that time, when they compete with the prime minister's mansion, they will not be so passive.

Zhou Xianrui and Xiao Jinxuan have always admitted that the other party is each other's confidants, and the tacit understanding between the two of them is indeed very high, just like now, although they did not express the intention of forming an alliance in public, but in their hearts, they are thoughts Unanimous, unanimous.

But this time it was hard for Gu Qingping, after seeing Xiao Jinxuan finished what he said just now, which made him tremble with fear, he stopped talking.

And Zhou Xianrui, his cousin, also showed a clear smile, he was confused, and hurriedly said worriedly:
"Miss Jinxuan, Cousin Prince Rui, no matter what you are thinking, but Empress Xue is the mother of a country, Concubine Hui is also a third-rank concubine, you must not act rashly, this is a serious crime committed by the following, anyway, this poisonous wine It didn't hurt anyone after all, so I think it's better to just let it go."

Gu Qingping's personality doesn't like fighting, but he is also generous and humble. He pays attention to the gentleman's humility, and the way of forgiving and forgiving. He wants to repay grievances with virtue in everything, and he doesn't want to be too fussy.

But it was obvious that Xiao Jinxuan was destined to run counter to his thoughts.

After seeing a cold snort, a stern look flashed in Xiao Jinxuan's eyes, and she said in an even colder voice:
"Mr. Gu's thinking is too simple. What's more, if we really wait until someone is poisoned and killed before fighting back, then it will be too late. There is no accident today. Once someone dies in this hall, I'm afraid even The good concubine and empress will be implicated, and the other party's intentions are really vicious."

Gu Qing usually only reads the books of sages and sages, if you ask him about astronomy, geography, or the holy words of Confucianism, then he can tell you for three days and three nights without repeating the same.

But when it comes to conspiracies and tricks, he is really not good at all, so when he heard Xiao Jinxuan's words, he immediately became confused, and didn't understand what was going on with Concubine Liang here.

Seeing that his cousin was really a bit stupid in reading, Zhou Xianrui shook his head helplessly, followed Xiao Jinxuan's words, and continued:
"Qingping, do you still remember that Concubine Hui once had a drink alone with Concubine Mother before toasting with me? No one would think that it was a problem with the drinks, and this family banquet was held in the palace of the concubine, except for the fine wine, all the food was from Yanqing Palace, and the biggest suspected poisoner at that time would be will become my concubine."

Looking at Gu Qingping's surprised but still slightly questioning eyes, Xiao Jinxuan also walked to his side, and said again in a concentrated voice:
"At that time, not only the concubine Liang, but also the three of you, the Gu family, may be easily eliminated. After all, if I die, if nothing happens, the matter between Yu Wang and me will definitely be revealed. Concubine Shi Liang and the reason why your Gu family poisoned me will be said to be a marriage gift by someone with a heart. After all, if I get rid of me, Gu Qingge can marry into the palace without any worries. And this reason is indeed reasonable. Even if you make an excuse, no one will believe it, so you can only bear the charge."

Gu Qingping read too much, he was a bit brainy, but he was not really stupid, so in an instant, flashed in his mind, "kill two birds with one stone, kill two birds with one stone", and other idioms and allusions, and cold sweat would also flow from his forehead popped out.

Seeing that Gu Qingping realized how dangerous the situation was just now, Xiao Jinxuan sighed, and said in a slow voice:
"Mr. Gu's incident is over, so you don't have to worry about it too much. Besides, you saved my life. It's just that you knew there was something wrong with the drink. Why did you drink it yourself? Fortunately, I noticed your behavior. Abnormal, otherwise I'm afraid you've been poisoned by now."

Hearing this, Gu Qingping hesitated for a moment, and said with a lack of confidence:
"Actually, although I saw something wrong with the flagon jug, I never expected that Concubine Hui would dare to poison it. I just heard from Xiangping that Miss Jinxuan's wrist was injured by Concubine Hui. I want to make things difficult for you a little, so I am going to drink wine for you, and make this matter big and small, and small and nothing."

Seeing that Gu Qingping is really a nerd, he almost drank poisonous wine by mistake in order to calm things down, Xiao Jinxuan didn't know what to say to him at this moment.

And after Zhou Xianrui reprimanded the other party a few words, telling this cousin not to be so careless next time, he turned to Xiao Jinxuan and said:

"Miss Si, what are you going to do next? If there is a need, I will help you a little bit."

Hearing these words, Xiao Jinxuan's eyes flashed with determination, and the scene of Zhou Xianyu Shicai fighting with Queen Xue for her sake appeared in his mind.

"What I have to do now is to make myself more full-fledged. When I am in danger, I also have the ability to protect myself, instead of implicating Yu Wang to stand up for me. My own affairs, Xiao Jinxuan, must not drag him down. Half a point. As for the person who dares to plot against me behind my back, I will definitely give him a big gift in return."

The closer Zhou Xianyu got to her, the more Xiao Jinxuan realized that the other party seemed to be in trouble because she was constantly in trouble.

The fate-changing divine punishment was like a curse, reminding Xiao Jinxuan all the time not to get close to Zhou Xianyu, she was really afraid that she would implicate Zhou Xianyu.

Seeing Xiao Jinxuan, who was almost poisoned to death, but Zhou Xianyu was still on his mind, pity flashed in Zhou Xianrui's eyes, and he couldn't help but wonder what was going on with Concubine Liang and Mrs. Gu.

As for Xiao Jinxuan, Zhou Xianrui was still very curious about the gift that Xiao Jinxuan was talking about.

As for the person who the other party said was behind the assassination, if he guessed correctly, since Queen Xue wanted to get rid of Xiao Jinxuan for her own son, someone must have offered advice to Zhou Xiantai and sent a letter to Queen Xue. She was going to kill Xiao Jinxuan in the palace.

As far as Zhou Xianrui knew, besides Zhou Xiantai, who was familiar with Xiao Jinxuan, had a deep grudge against her, and was very strategic, he would not be the second choice except for Ji Lingfeng. Already thought of this.
