Even though what she did was for the peace of Wei, they ignored it and only saw the surface of the matter, that is, she, as their daughter, killed Leng Zhenhuan.
Leng Xiao turned around and went out without making any response to Concubine Hui's words.
The queen obviously heard these words, her back froze, and she staggered away.
Leng Xiao followed her from a distance and escorted her back to the palace.
After the queen entered the palace, she didn't say a word. Leng Xiao asked her to have a good rest and then returned to the East Palace with Ape.
After being silent for a long time, Ape said: "In fact, what the noble concubine said made me feel quite moved."
Leng Xiao said: "Do you think she is sincere?"
"The Crown Princess doesn't think so?"
Leng Xiao remembered the way she looked when she spoke, "There is sincerity, but there is also calculation. These words will surely reach the emperor's ears word for word. She said that she deeply loves his former husband. Will the emperor be angry?" ?”
"That's for sure." Ape said without thinking.
"She will be angry, and she compares me with her husband. Do you think the emperor will make me angry because of this?"
Ape's face changed drastically, "What a vicious woman."
"For the sake of her daughter, she brought up her husband and what he said to let the emperor remember her husband's military exploits when he died on the battlefield, so that the emperor could treat Princess Qing well as appropriate, and at the same time praise me, which is disgusting to the emperor. Make the emperor even more dissatisfied with me."
Ape thought for a moment, "Since you want the emperor to treat Princess Qing well, why do you still say that she loves her old husband?"
Leng Xiao said calmly: "Because she doesn't want to live anymore, and she also knows that she can't live. Her deep love for her old husband is what she said sincerely before she died. She doesn't want to lie to herself now, and she also wants to be right. The general who died in battle had an explanation that she would meet him after her death. She knew that the emperor would be angry, so when she said those words later, she wanted to transfer most of this anger to me. "
"It's unreasonable. Even if I am dying, I can't harm you, the Crown Princess." Ape was very angry, and even more angry when he thought about it, "I really don't know why the Queen wanted to see her, she shouldn't have gone."
Isn't this obviously looking for trouble? If you don't go, there will be no such thing.
Leng Xiao smiled slightly, poured the tea and took a sip, and said: "Actually, it's okay. Many things have been opened up. You can do whatever you want."
"But now the prince is not here..."
Leng Xiao pressed her hands, "It's easier to deal with the prince's absence. It's easier for the emperor to handle, and it's easier for me to handle it. He doesn't have to be caught in the middle to cause trouble."
Even now that I am pregnant, some things may not be done so neatly.
Ape was stunned. He didn't know why it would be easier to deal with the prince's absence. After thinking about it, he said, "I see that Concubine Hui is very energetic. She may not be dead for a while."
Leng Xiao shook his head, "Tomorrow at the latest."
After saying those words, she must die.
Apei felt that he would definitely not die tomorrow. Concubine Hui looked sick, but the illness was not particularly serious and it would not be a problem to survive for half a month or a month.
There is also an imperial doctor in the palace. Today I saw a bowl of medicine on the table in Huiqing's palace, which shows that the imperial doctor has treated her.
But early the next morning, when Leng Xiao and A Pei went to pay their respects to the queen, not long after they sat down, someone came over to report that Concubine Hui had passed away.
Ape glanced at Leng Xiao in shock. Leng Xiao just drank tea calmly, her eyes looking at the queen.
The Queen looked shocked, but it was only for a moment before she said: "I understand, have you reported it to the Emperor?"
