Concubine's true colors

Chapter 314
The carriage marked with the seal of the Imperial Palace was on the way out of the palace. After seeing the carriages and horses of other aristocratic families, they all gave way one after another. No one dared to compete with it.

With the road going unimpeded, Xiao Jinyu, who was sitting in the car, and Zhou Xianyu almost left the palace first, and galloped towards the commander's mansion.

But when she got out of the palace gate, Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help but said:

"Xianyu, at the palace banquet, if you hadn't stopped me, the Holy Majesty would have scolded Xiangping for being unfilial. It would be as simple as slapping him across the face. I have Zhu Xin to accompany me, and I can go back to the mansion by myself. I'm really worried about Ping, you'd better go back and help her for a while, so you don't have to worry about me."

There was a constant turmoil in a palace banquet. First, both civil and military champions asked for a marriage gift, and then Daliang proposed a marriage marriage.

In his rage, Emperor Ming not only slapped Xiangping, but also severely punished him.

If it wasn't for Zhou Xianyu who was not afraid at all, stepped forward to protect the eighth younger sister, and confronted his own father, the emperor, for a long time.I'm afraid this time, whether Xiangping will be safe or not is really an unknown index.

So the state banquet came to an end, and it ended hastily. The Emperor Ming walked away, and all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty also left the palace on their own.

Seeing that Xiao Jinxuan wanted to return home alone, Zhou Xianyu didn't even think about it, so he directly refused and said:

"Fifth brother is staying in the palace now, and his mother and concubine are taking care of him. The emperor's words of blaming Xiangping in front of the palace are largely to appease the Daliang envoys. Now in private, even if he is angry, It wouldn't really take Xiangping's life. But now that Empress Xue failed to kill you, Ji Lingfeng went to guard the city gate instead. I'm worried that this group of people will be angry and do something to block you halfway. So I personally send you back home, so that I can feel at ease."

Seeing that Zhou Xianyu insisted on refusing to leave, Xiao Jinxuan knew that it would be useless to talk too much. After thinking for a while, she said with a little worry:

"Then you have to promise me that once you send me back to the mansion, you will definitely return to the palace immediately. Even if the Holy Majesty cares about your family in Xiangping, you will not do anything to her. But the one who fell in love with her, even as a bodyguard, fell in love with her." The princess’s Mo Linzhi, I’m worried that he will be in trouble, if there is an accident with this person, I’m really worried that Xiangping’s love will be too deep. Then I won’t be able to bear the blow, if there is an accident, it will be troublesome.”

When Xiangping was in front of the palace, although he never revealed who his beloved was, as long as Emperor Ming wanted to investigate the matter in the palace, it wouldn't be long before Mo Lingzhi would definitely surface.

As for the matter between Xiangping and this guard, after getting into the carriage, Xiao Jinxuan told Zhou Xianyu concisely and concisely.

In the past, Zhou Xianyu had experienced the pain of lovesickness when he was with Xiao Jinxuan, so he also knew that if Mo Lingzhi had an accident, Xiangping might really do something stupid.

After all, when the journey of love is too deep, it is enough to make life and death follow each other. Since Xiangping dared to fight for Mo Linzhi, he openly resisted the marriage in front of the palace.

If the other party was ordered to be punished by Emperor Ming, or directly killed, I am afraid that Xiangping would really lose the will to live because of this.

Zhou Xianyu was raised by Concubine Liang since he was a child, although he always liked to tease Xiangping, but he also loved this eighth sister, so he nodded, and he said cautiously:
"Jinxuan, don't worry, as long as you return home safely, I will immediately find Mo Lingzhi and take him out of the palace. After he is placed in the Beijing military camp, it will be the father who is furious, and his life is at stake." Wang can also keep him safe. After all, Xiangping's marriage has become a foregone conclusion. As an elder brother, I naturally try to help her when she is in the most difficult time. I don't know what year it is."

Xiao Jinxuan was worried about Xiangping, but now, some people are gnashing her teeth with hatred, and this person is Ji Lingfeng who knelt in front of Queen Xue and bowed his head to apologize.

After all, according to Empress Xue's intentions, the lovesickness Gu was used to blackmail Xiao Jinxuan, so that she could take the other party under her command and work for Zhou Xiantai.

But now everything has gone wrong, even Ji Lingfeng suffered a lot in this matter, but Empress Xue's mother and son are his masters, this matter is not good, and the consequences of mistakes must be borne by him.

And when Queen Xue listened to Ji Lingfeng's in-depth review with slightly squinted eyes, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she said in a soothing voice:
"Okay, Ji Dutong, please get up quickly. In fact, in today's round, Xiao Jinxuan's ability to turn against the guest was unexpected. This girl's scheming is too deep. She clearly saw through the Gu insects, but she still pretended to be a Gu worm." You have been holding back for so long, just for this final blow to clean you up thoroughly. Not only have you failed to marry her, but your official career has been affected because of this matter. Fortunately, the Holy Majesty is really able to say it , The majestic champion of martial arts, but only a fourth-rank guard guarding the city gate, you can be regarded as the most low-ranked martial arts champion since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty."

Xue Hou's words really hit Ji Lingfeng's heartache. With his martial arts and martial arts skills, it is no problem to stabilize the country and stabilize the country.

But now he can only be in charge of the city gate in humiliation, and immediately he feels that his future path seems to be covered with shameful dust, and he can't see any hope.

Some self-defeating and self-destructive smiles, Ji Lingfeng said in a self-deprecating way:
"The empress's words are right. After this state banquet, Xiao Jinxuan's calculation failed, but Ling Feng became the biggest joke. Not only was he played by the other party, but he was forced to marry a broken flower. You must hate me, even if you get a title on the Lingfeng Gold List, I'm afraid there will be no bright future in this life."

Empress Xue naturally knows how Ji Lingfeng's knowledge is planned.

When it comes to Zhou Xiantai's side, he is the most powerful person, so seeing him so decadent and negative, she can't help but offer a few words of encouragement with kindness and power.

"Ling Feng, you don't need to be like this. You are depressed and unwilling. Xiao Jinyu is indeed a dishonest woman, but marrying her is not useless. Don't forget that the old ladies of Xiao Bai's two aristocratic families all regard her as the jewel in their palm. So, once you marry the other party, you will have two more reliances invisibly. Moreover, the Bai family of Huaguo Duke's mansion has always been closer to the commander-in-chief's mansion because of Mrs. Xiao and Xiao Jinyu. But once you win over Xiao Jinyu, the Bai family may become attached to Tai'er in turn, and it will be like a tiger with wings added to future reserves."

Seeing that Ji Lingfeng's expression recovered a little, Empress Xue smiled slightly, and then continued calmly:
"As for Ling Feng, you don't need to worry about your official career. Don't forget that my father, Prime Minister Xue, ranks first among the officials. When the emperor's dissatisfaction with you dissipates, he will raise your official position for a reason. Therefore Recently, you have been wronged for a few days, but before long, you will definitely have a place in the court, this is the promise I made to you, so you should rest assured."

After Xue Hou sent this reassurance pill, Ji Lingfeng's decadence really disappeared. After thanking Grace again, he hurriedly said:
"Empress, please rest assured. Now that Xiao Jinyu and I have formed a lovesickness Gu, and marrying her is a foregone conclusion. Ling Feng will definitely control her firmly, and use her to lead the Xiaobai family to serve as your royal highness." Used. After all, Lingfeng is able to have what he is today, all thanks to the cultivation of His Majesty, no matter what the master does, I am willing."

Nodding in satisfaction, Empress Xue said: "Okay, I am very pleased that you can think so clearly. But Xiao Jinxuan has not married Yu Wang for a day, so I will try my best to ruin their relationship." The marriage was made, after all, Xiao Jinyu is the other party's first sister, and the two of them have been at odds for a long time, maybe I can find a solution from what she said."

Then Empress Xue ordered Ji Lingfeng to retreat first, and then asked Zuo Wen to invite Xiao Jinyu, who was already awake.

When the other party was brought, Empress Xue avoided Xiao Jinyu's prostration ceremony, and then kindly motioned for the other party to come and sit beside her.

"You child was in the palace just now, and you fainted from fright. You really suffered. Before you entered the palace, you and your biological mother were very good sisters. Seeing you now, I think of the period when I was young. The worry-free years, I really have a lot of emotions, and unconsciously, looking at Jinyu feels very cordial."

After waking up from the coma, Xiao Jinyu knew that it was Empress Xue who saved her in the hall.

Seeing that the empress was so amiable, she felt even more grateful in her heart.

"Thank you for your love. If you really love Jinyu, please make the decision for your daughter. I really don't have any personal relationship with that Ji Lingfeng, and Jinyu doesn't want to marry him at all."

Hearing this, Empress Xue's eyes flashed a little deep, and then saw her hold Xiao Jinyu's hand, and said with infinite love:
"Your child is pure-hearted at first glance, so I will naturally believe you in the future, but the lovesickness Gu is so powerful, you have also tried it yourself, and now you and Ji Lingfeng are living and dying together, not to mention that this marriage is a Even though I am the empress, I have no right to change the emperor's decree. But since you didn't take the initiative to use this Gu, then who could have conspired against you like this? This person's vicious thoughts are really frightening to think about. "

Under the intentional guidance of Xue Hou, Xiao Jinyu suddenly opened his eyes wide, and then said through gritted teeth:

"Empress, the person who harmed me must be Xiao Jinxuan. You saw it in the palace just now. This concubine is always targeting me. She must have done this trick. You must make the decision for me." , kill this bitch."

Seeing Xiao Jinyu's beauty distorted with anger, Empress Xue showed a satisfied expression on her face, but she said in embarrassment:
"Jinyu, it's because I won't help you in the future, but now you have no proof, and we can't do anything to Xiao Jinxuan. But you and her live in the same house every day. If you can think of something, you can effectively contain the other party's strength." Method, that book reads that you are innocent, so I can help you a little bit."

After thinking silently for a long time, Xiao Jinyu looked at Queen Xue in surprise, and said impatiently:
"Empress, Jinyu really has a plan. Not only can Xiao Jinxuan be restrained, but she will also have a hard time from now on. To tell you the truth, not long ago, my concubine sister, I was going to take her younger brother into the palace. But the most strange thing is that, given her status in the commander-in-chief's mansion today, she is unwilling to welcome her biological mother to Beijing. Out of curiosity, the court lady once asked her grandmother why. That's how I knew This concubine sister and her biological mother are mother and daughter in name, but in reality they are like enemies, if the empress can bring this Yang family to the capital, then Xiao Jinxuan will definitely not have a good life."
