Chapter 383: Concubine Xiang protects herself and denounces the Queen
After the emperor made up his mind to deal with Concubine Xiang, her health became worse and worse for no apparent reason due to a cold.
I drank bowl after bowl of medicine, but there was no relief at all.
The weakness of her body completely dissipated Xiangpin's original ambitions. She was thinking about finding an opportunity to win Wen Yi back as soon as possible. She was even ready. If it really didn't work, she would rather break up with the Queen and force her to send Wen Yi back to her.
But the onset of this illness meant that her plan could only remain an idea for the time being.
When Fu Cha Zhixi learned about this, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
It is clear that Concubine Xiang is now on the emperor's blacklist, but she herself knows nothing about it at this time.
Xiangpin has the leverage over the Queen. After all, she doesn't think that someone like Xiangpin would work for the Queen without leaving herself a way out.
So perhaps she could have someone secretly reveal to Concubine Xiang that someone wanted to kill her, and it would be best if she could make her think of the Queen. Then, in order to save her own life, Concubine Xiang would definitely choose to report to the Emperor that the Queen had previously attacked Fu Zhen, thus giving her a glimmer of hope.
You have to know that the emperor would take action against Concubine Xiang. If she had not read the original plot, she would definitely not think in this direction.
After all, as the ruler of a country, there is really no reason for the emperor to get involved in the affairs of the harem. This is also a blind spot in everyone's thinking.
And he could take advantage of this blind spot and make Concubine Xiang and the Queen fight each other.
Although it was the Queen who planned Fu Zhen's fall into the water, it was Concubine Xiang who carried out the plan. Her revenge was not just to make the other party lose his child.
After all, if Fu Zhen hadn't been rescued by Ye Lanyi at that time, even if he didn't die, his body would have been severely injured.
As a mother, how could she forget such hatred?
With Fu Cha Zhixi's deliberate revelation, the traitor planted in Xiangpin's palace inadvertently made Xiangpin realize that there was something wrong with the medicine she drank on a daily basis.
Concubine Xiang was a smart person, and she didn't need anyone to remind her too much, as she subconsciously thought of the Queen.
As for the reason, it was very simple. Both the Queen and she knew that she had something on the Queen.
It was reasonable for the queen to take action against her in order to eliminate the trouble once and for all.
After all, Concubine Xiang would never have thought that the person who attacked her would be the emperor.
With the help of a traitor, Concubine Xiang soon discovered that her personal maid had betrayed her.
The traitor successfully gained Xiangpin's trust because of this incident, and intentionally or unintentionally instilled in Xiangpin that she could only seek help from the emperor in order to save her life.
After thinking about it, Concubine Xiang realized that apart from the emperor, no one else in the palace would be willing to get involved in such muddy water.
But if she told the imperial concubine the truth about the Sixth Prince falling into the water, the imperial concubine would naturally hate the queen because of this, and she could use the imperial concubine's hand to protect herself.
Thinking of this, Concubine Xiang did not delay and found a suitable time to come to Chengqian Palace.
When Fu Cha Zhixi heard that Xiangpin was coming, he quickly realized that Xiangpin did not choose to go directly to the emperor for help, and it seemed that she was planning to use the matter of Fuzhen to seek her help.
My previous thoughts were indeed a bit too self-centered. Concubine Xiang was not favored by the emperor and had always been cautious. Her most accustomed way was to hide behind powerful people and make plans secretly. When encountering such a thing, her first choice would naturally not be to go to the emperor.
But this is not a bad thing. Since they want to kill someone with a borrowed knife, let's see which of them is more skilled.
Thinking of this, Fu Cha Zhixi looked at Su Qin and asked her to welcome the person in.
"Greetings to the Imperial Concubine, may the Imperial Concubine be blessed with good health and good health."
Concubine Xiang spoke to Fu Cha Zhixi very respectfully and bowed.
"Xiangpin is a rare guest. Why are you looking for me? Is there something you want?"
Fu Cha Zhixi was too lazy to talk to Concubine Xiang and asked directly.
This made Xiangpin, who always liked to play word games, a little at a loss, but she quickly adapted to it, knelt down in front of the imperial concubine with a plop, and spoke in a helpless tone.
"My Lady, I am guilty."
"Oh, what is your crime?"
Fu Cha Zhixi pretended to be confused and asked.
Concubine Xiang narrated in a vivid and moving manner how she was coerced by the Queen to plot against the Sixth Prince. Her words were half true and half false, but she did her best to distance herself from the conspiracy.
In the other party's words, she was a poor mother forced by the Queen. Due to the inner torment, she took the initiative to come forward and confess all this to the Imperial Concubine.
Fu Cha Zhixi couldn't help but frowning when she saw Concubine Xiang kneeling on the ground. She naturally wouldn't believe her lies, but she wasn't stupid enough to show it at this moment.
"You said that the Queen forced you to do this, so do you have any evidence to prove it?"
"I am the best proof. I am willing to stand up and serve as a witness."
Xiangpin naturally left behind evidence that could be used to pin the queen to death, but she was a person who would not release the eagle until she saw the rabbit, so she would naturally not take this thing out easily.
After all, no one can guarantee that if the imperial concubine gets the evidence, she will still help save her life.
Fu Cha Zhixi saw through all the other party's little thoughts. It seemed that after suffering two losses, Concubine Xiang had learned her lesson.
"Okay, if that's the case, I'll call the emperor over right now, and you can talk to him in person."
Fu Cha Zhixi raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Concubine Xiang and spoke.
He didn't give the opponent any chance to buffer at all and caught them off guard.
Xiangpin was a little dumbfounded when she heard this. This imperial concubine really didn't play by the rules.
She originally thought that the imperial concubine would question the matter, and that she could take the opportunity to put forward her own demands.
Unexpectedly, the imperial concubine actually carried the emperor out directly, which pushed her into a desperate situation.
After Fu Cha Zhixi finished speaking, he directly ordered Yu Hu to call the emperor over, without giving Xiangpin any chance to refuse.
She looked at Concubine Xiang who was kneeling on the ground and looked a little flustered, and couldn't help but curl up a mocking arc.
You really fooled yourself by thinking of yourself as the former Concubine Hua. If you want to use her as a knife, it depends on whether you are qualified enough.
In this case, it would be better to tell the Emperor directly that the Queen had poisoned him. This way, he would not be able to use this opportunity to completely suppress the Queen, and he could at least ensure his own safety.
After all, if something happened to her, everyone would subconsciously suspect the queen, and the queen would naturally not dare to act rashly.
Anyway, the other party was going to kill her, and they had completely broken off relationship. She might as well just go for it, hoping that there might be a glimmer of hope for her survival.
As for the original idea of using the imperial concubine to frame the queen, he had to give up on it.
