Shen Fengyi sat back on the couch with a sense of relief, and waved her hand to dismiss the palace maid at the door.

Jiang Feiyan walked forward and sat down without being asked.

She looked at the queen who was obviously dressed up carefully, and had a vague guess in her mind as to who would come later.

"I came to see the Queen because I wanted something."

Shen Fengyi frowned slightly, but when she saw that the other party wanted to ask her for something, she immediately put on her airs as the queen.

"What do you want?"

"Soul-Eating Rosemary." Jiang Feiyan's voice was very low. "I know the Queen has this thing in her hands."

Shen Fengyi's expression immediately became solemn. She did have this thing in her hand.

But this is top secret, and few people in the entire palace know about it.

Soul-eating rosemary, when lit, can make anyone who smells its fragrance fall into an illusion of extreme beauty and pleasure.

Back then, Concubine Wan was the only one favored by His Majesty, and she had planned to use this thing to win back his heart.

It’s a pity that His Majesty’s soul has been hooked by Concubine Wan and he has never visited her bedroom again.

So, she hid this thing in a corner and let it gather dust.

If Jiang Feiyan hadn't mentioned it, she would have almost forgotten about this thing.

There's no point in denying it. Looking at Jiang Feiyan's determined gaze and her straightforward attitude, it's confirmed that she has this thing in her hand.

"How do you know I have this thing?"

"It doesn't matter how I know." Jiang Feiyan stretched out her hand.

As if she had thought of something, Shen Fengyi's voice suddenly became louder.

"You want to use this thing on His Majesty?!"

She is not a fool. His Majesty will go to Jiang Feiyan's bedroom tonight.

Whether it was just for show or because of Jiang Li's contribution to destroying the country, he looked at Jiang Feiyan differently and really wanted to favor this woman.

For Jiang Feiyan, this is a rare opportunity.

If we can use the soul-eating rosemary to make His Majesty linger in Jiang Feiyan's bedroom from now on, there will probably be no need for Concubine Wan in the future.

If it were in the past, she would be happy to have someone to fight with Concubine Wan.

But now your Majesty's health is getting worse day by day, how can he withstand such torture?

Soul-eating rosemary is something that consumes your mind.

If Jiang Yunshu were in his prime, smelling this fragrance for a long time might not have a significant effect on him, but for Jiang Yunshu now in his twilight years, it would probably only accelerate his death.

Jiang Feiyan nodded. She came to ask for the Soul-Eating Rosemary at this time. It was easy to guess who she wanted to use it on.

Seeing that she didn't deny it, Shen Fengyi's mouth twitched involuntarily.

Is this woman crazy?

He actually came to her to ask for this kind of thing, and was so confident.

"Do you know that this will cost His Majesty's life?"

If His Majesty died because of the Soul-Eating Rosemary, and if the blame was traced back to her, wouldn't I have died unjustly?

Besides, why does Jiang Feiyan think she will take it out?

"Today I will pretend that you have never been here, otherwise——"

Jiang Feiyan shook her head in disappointment.

"I thought you would give it to me obediently, but I didn't expect you to be so stupid."

"What did you say?"

Shen Fengyi stared at Jiang Feiyan in disbelief, almost doubting her own ears.

This woman just now actually called her stupid?

Jiang Feiyan's pure and kind eyes suddenly turned cold, and then she stared at Shen Fengyi without blinking.

"If Jiang Yunshu dies, then you have the evidence against me. Even if something goes wrong, you can put the blame on me."

She stood up, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

"Aren't you stupid?"

Shen Fengyi shook her head slightly subconsciously.

"Are you crazy?"

"No matter how crazy I am, I can't be as crazy as the Queen who poisoned His Majesty."

Jiang Feiyan's casual words sounded like thunder in Shen Fengyi's ears.

She opened her mouth but couldn't utter a word for a long time.

In just a moment, a huge fear surged into her heart and blocked her throat.

Countless thoughts flashed through her mind quickly, and the first thought was to get rid of Jiang Feiyan.

Although she didn't know how Jiang Feiyan found out about this, she could only feel completely at ease when someone died.

However, so many people watched Jiang Feiyan enter her Ganquan Palace, and His Majesty was going to favor Jiang Feiyan again tonight.

She had just been named a noble concubine, and she died in her palace. This matter will definitely be thoroughly investigated.

She knew the methods of the Overwatch Council. Once she was found guilty, the prince would have no chance of turning things around.

Wait!

Jiang Feiyan may not have direct evidence, this is a scam!

Shen Fengyi's eyes kept flickering, but all she got from him was a disdainful sneer from Jiang Feiyan.

She didn't even give the Queen a chance to respond and continued speaking.

"We are not enemies. I only want the Soul-Eating Rosemary. Everything else has nothing to do with me."

"I have no idea what you're talking about."

After Shen Fengyi came to her senses, she became more curious about Jiang Feiyan, but she immediately denied poisoning her.

Without hard evidence, there is absolutely no way she would admit it.

Jiang Feiyan narrowed her eyes slightly. She didn't have much time to waste with this stupid woman Shen Fengyi.

"My Queen, my time is limited. I only want the Soul Devouring Rosemary."

She stood up and walked to Shen Fengyi's side, leaned over and whispered.

"If you walk by the river often, you will get your feet wet. You poison your majesty's food every month. Do you really think no one will find out?"

Shen Fengyi clenched his fists instantly and his back suddenly tensed up.

This is not just speculation, Jiang Feiyan really knows what she did.

When she thought of this, a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.

"What evidence do you have?!"

"Of course I have evidence, but if I send the evidence directly to His Majesty, do you think the prince still has a chance to turn things around?"

As she spoke, Jiang Feiyan placed a paper bag of medicine powder on the table.

Shen Fengyi's throat rolled, and then she went to pick up the paper bag with a guilty conscience.

However, Jiang Feiyan snatched the paper bag back before her.

As the paper bag slowly opened in Jiang Feiyan's hands, Shen Fengyi's heart was completely relieved.

There was only a little bit of powder inside. She was very familiar with that powder. It was the poison she had given to His Majesty.

Jiang Feiyan rewrapped the powder and put it into her sleeve.

"Be careful next time you poison someone, don't spread it outside."

Shen Fengyi's hands had unconsciously clenched in her sleeves.

"You just took a packet of powder from who knows where and you want to accuse me of poisoning His Majesty?"

The next moment, Jiang Feiyan raised her hand and clamped her cheek.

"Shen Fengyi, don't challenge my patience. If you really want me to put all the evidence in front of you, then it will not be something that Soul Devouring Rosemary can solve."

Shen Fengyi was so frightened by this sudden action that she froze.

She felt a strong murderous intent in Jiang Feiyan's eyes. If she didn't take out the Soul-Eating Rosemary, who knows what the other party might do.

"I, I'll get it for you."

Just as he finished speaking, the bedroom door was suddenly pushed open.

At that moment, Jiang Feiyan immediately took a step back and returned to her usual state.

Before Shen Fengyi could react to what was happening, Li Lingge had already walked in.

His eyes moved back and forth between Jiang Feiyan and Shen Fengyi. Although they were on his side, he still bowed first.

"See the Queen."

"See the Imperial Concubine."

Shen Fengyi's eyelids twitched. Didn't the people outside tell this guy that there was a stranger in his bedroom?

The palace gates had already been closed. Jiang Feiyan knew that she had poisoned the woman, and now she was caught by Jiang Feiyan having a secret meeting with a man outside her family. This time, she really couldn't let this woman leave.

Thinking of this, Shen Fengyi immediately stood up and walked quickly to Li Lingge's side.

"Kill her."

Li Lingge: (ΩДΩ)

What's going on? You want him to kill someone as soon as they meet?

He turned his head and looked at Jiang Feiyan with a little confusion. Jiang Feiyan had a helpless look on her face and just looked at Shen Fengyi with aggrieved eyes.

"Why did the Queen want to kill me?"

The corner of Shen Fengyi's mouth twitched. Jiang Feiyan was such a good actress.

He looked so pitiful, without any trace of murderous intent.

However, after seeing Li Lingge, her heart was at peace.

She hesitated for a moment, but still leaned close to Li Lingge's ear and told him everything that had just happened.

Jiang Feiyan was not at all panicked about this, as she had already guessed that the person coming was Li Lingge.

How could the person who wanted to help her Li'er ascend to the throne kill her?

Looking at Shen Fengyi's tell-tale look, she shook her head and sighed helplessly.

This woman probably still doesn't know that Li Lingge has always wanted to overthrow the prince.

After listening to Shen Fengyi's explanation of the whole story, Li Lingge felt relieved.

Is it necessary to fight to the death over such a small matter?

"You go find Soul-Eating Rosemary first, and I'll persuade her."

Shen Fengyi hesitated for a moment, but finally turned around to get the Soul-Eating Rosemary.

At the same time, Li Lingge walked to Jiang Feiyan's side and whispered.

"What does the Imperial Concubine want with the Soul Devouring Rosemary?"

"Your Highness, you are asking this even though you already know the answer." Jiang Feiyan turned to look at Li Lingge, "This is all I can do to help Li'er in the harem."

"Actually, Your Majesty, there is no need to do this. I will arrange everything."

Jiang Feiyan's appearance at Shen Fengyi's place disrupted his plans.

Originally, there shouldn't be any intersection between these two people.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Feiyan lowered her eyes slightly and her voice became even lower.

"It's not all for Li'er, I just don't want Jiang Yunshu to touch me."
