Rebirth: Emperor, Long Time No See - C223
In fact, Dongfang Ziqing felt a little nervous today. Although this was not the first time Dongfang Ziqing set up a trap for Xuanyuan Chen Mo, it was different this time. Dongfang Ziqing took the initiative to invite Emperor Xuanyuan Chen Mo into her Parasol Tree Palace. She used Xuanyuan Chen Mo’s unstable frame of mind to lure him into the trap.
Xuanyuan Chen Mo was not a fool, Dongfang Ziqing had already known this for a long time. But overall, Dongfang Ziqing’s plan was quite successful. This could be counted as Dongfang Ziqing making good use of her current relationship with Xuanyuan and Chen Mo. After all, Xuanyuan Chen knew that he had let Dongfang Ziqing down, so he cherished and cared for this woman who was extremely similar to Dongfang Ziqing.
Dongfang Ziqing did not care about what Xuanyuan Chen Mo was thinking. In Dongfang Ziqing’s heart, she no longer felt the same feeling of love and hatred towards Xuanyuan Chen Mo that she had three years ago. After these three years, Dongfang Ziqing understood many things. When Dongfang Ziqing understood so many things, she realized how foolish she was in the past.
Therefore, Dongfang Ziqing didn’t feel the slightest burden treating Xuanyuan Chen Mo like this. It was just that Dongfang Ziqing wasn’t someone who was good at scheming. It was just that after experiencing so much, her mind was starting to mature. In the past, a carefree, simple person would not be able to truly grow up without going through so much hardships.
Dongfang Ziqing was quite satisfied with today’s results. No matter what, to be able to rescue Yi Feifei from the Sky Prison was already a very good result.
“Empress, the emperor and his entourage have already left. The Empress could finally relax. Xuemei had been watching from the outside, and only returned when she couldn’t see the Emperor’s dragoon. Niangniang, do you want to get up? After lying down for so long, you want to eat and drink something to tell Xuemei. “Xuemei, go and prepare for it!” Xue Mei said to Dongfang Ziqing.
“No need, Xuemei. You’ve worked hard today, running back and forth. It’s been hard on you. Actually, I had no choice. After all, I can leave such an important matter to you. Furthermore, we have experienced so many things together, so you should understand my intentions the best. ” Dongfang Ziqing said.
“Empress, you don’t have to worry about Xuemei. Our master and his servant had gone through so many things together, and the Empress hadn’t abandoned us. She had always been by the Empress’s side, so she was already very happy. On this point, even Pearl could not envy him. Xue Mei felt that she didn’t have to put in much effort today. After all, she felt that she could also do her best to save Yi Fei. “Today, when Xuemei went to find the Emperor in the imperial study, she was still a little afraid of him.” Xue Mei said with a smile.
“Xuemei, it’s normal for you to see the Emperor Xuanyuan, Chen Mo, being a little scared.” The more you act as if you fear the Emperor, the more Xuanyuan Chenmer will believe you. It was hard for an ordinary person to guess the Emperor’s Art. All you had to do was make a normal reaction to face Xuanyuan Chen Mo. Although the main focus of Xuanyuan Chen Mo is not on you, but Xuanyuan Chen Mo is a very cunning person.
Actually, I don’t have much confidence today. I was also holding on to a chance in my heart, hoping that this could help Yi Fei. We have not been in the palace for long, and we cannot let Xuanyuan Chen Mo take too much notice of us. Only then can we secretly accumulate strength, and only then can we have the capital to take revenge and continue fighting Xuanyuan Chen Mo. ” Dongfang Ziqing said.
“En, Empress. In any case, today we have achieved what we want for the time being. The emperor promised to release Yi Fei first, so we don’t have to worry about Yi Fei’s comfort anymore. I think Pearl will be very happy when she comes back and hears this news. Empress, what should we do tonight? If the emperor has personally come to ask about this case, then we must go together as well. When the time comes, the empress, Shangguan Conxue, will also personally appear. Xuemei was afraid that the empress would cause trouble for you when the time came! “Xuemei hates that empress so much.” Xue Mei said.
“It’s fine. Xuemei, you don’t have to worry about that. We were already enemies with His Majesty Shangguan Canxue.” I also don’t mind if my relationship with Shangguan Canxue continues to worsen like this. We will definitely go over tonight, but you don’t have to be afraid of the empress Shangguan Congxue and just stand to the side without saying a word. Naturally, I will deal with Shangguan maliciously. Now, what I’m worried about is, how is Pearl doing? After all, this is the first time I’m handing over such an important matter to Pearl. I wonder if Pearl can really handle this? ” Dongfang Ziqing said with a hint of worry.
“It’s fine, Your Highness. Back then, you even told her not to worry about pearls anymore. It’s going pretty well on our side. Even if Pearl did not achieve the desired result, it would still be fine. As long as esteemed wangfei can release them, we’ll already have the upper hand in this matter. Esteemed wangfei, you just need to be careful to guard against the empress’s revenge. “Once the empress knows that the empress has ruined her plans yet again, she’ll definitely vent her anger on the empress. Xuemei’s a little worried too.” After Xuemei finished her sentence, her face revealed a bit of worry.
“It’s okay. In the end, it was Shangguan Canxue who had sowed dissension on the side all those years ago. That was why Xuanyuan Chen Mo had made up his mind to do this to me.” I must also begin to slowly let Shangguan Canxue know how powerful I, Dong Fang Ziqing, am. Not only did Shangguan Canxue not let me off easily, he even burned me to death. Right now, I’m only ruining Shangguan Bongxue’s plan to collect some interest. Xuemei, you don’t have to worry. Go and prepare some food! It had been such a long time. Pearl should be returning soon from the empress dowager’s Tzu Ning Palace. ” Dongfang Ziqing said.
“Yes, Empress. “Then, Xuemei will go out and prepare. Empress, you should take a good rest!” After saying that, Xuemei turned around and left.
Dongfang Ziqing might as well take a break. We’ll talk about tonight’s matter later!
The life of the empress Shangguan Congxue was pretty good these few days. He saw that he had long planned and prepared for the Blessing Exorcist General Assembly to be held tomorrow. Shangguan Canxue could also end the knot in his heart that had been hidden for a long time.
Although the murder of Chun’er had occurred before the Blessed Ghost Exorcist Assembly, he didn’t care about her at all. Shangguan Canxue was very confident in his methods and his arrangement was very tight. Although the last time he had received the news that imperial concubine Yuwen had also interfered, he didn’t believe that imperial concubine Yuwen had just entered the palace to fight him.
At this meeting, Shangguan Juxue was leisurely sipping the high-grade tea in her hands. All of a sudden, Shangguan Tianxue heard light footsteps. He didn’t even look up and knew that his personal maid, Qiu Xiang, had returned. After all, other than Xuemei, no one else dared to barge into his Phoenix Palace.
“How is it? Qiuxiang, you’re back so soon? Had the royal kitchen not been prepared yet? That bunch of useless bums are getting more and more useless. ” Shangguan Canxue still had a leisurely look on his face.
“Esteemed Empress!” Shangguan Canxue didn’t expect that there was a trace of anger mixed in Qiu Xiang’s voice. Shangguan Tianxue felt it was very strange. With his reputation in the palace, there usually wouldn’t be anyone who wouldn’t dare to provoke him and his men. Thinking of this, Shangguan Canxue raised his head and looked at the autumn fragrance that had already entered his bedroom.
“Is that so?” Qiuxiang, why are you so angry today? If you say it out loud, I will uphold justice for you! ” Although Shangguan Canxue was selfish, it was precisely because of his appearance that he had such a strong possessive desire for what belonged to him. Shangguan Canxue would never allow anyone to step on his territory and bully his people.
“Empress, I just came out of the imperial kitchens today and met Imperial Concubine Yi’s personal maid Pearl. I saw that pearl was coming towards the direction of the Wutong Palace where Imperial Concubine Yuwen was staying. Qiu Xiang felt very suspicious, so she went up to question the pearl to see if there was any movement from it.” Qiu Xiang paused here.
“Well done! Qiuxiang, you’re getting smarter and smarter. I didn’t love you for nothing. The other side already reported that the bitch, Yuwen Imperial Concubine, was once again involved in this matter. I originally wanted to let that slut, Imperial Concubine Yuwen, slowly clean things up. I didn’t expect her to be so tactless as to come and ruin my plans. If I catch the next opportunity for imperial concubine Yuwen to become my wife, I will definitely not mind leaving her with an unforgettable lesson for the rest of her life. ” A trace of dissatisfaction gradually grew in Shangguan Tianxue’s heart when he heard Qiu Xiang’s words.
