Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Six

By the time Chang Chun packed up Zhao Feifei's belongings and paid someone to bury her, it was already three days later.

She and Chang Xia met for the last time, and Chang Chun held her hand and said, "Chang Xia, my queen's revenge depends on you."

Chang Xia looked at her, "What are you going to do?"

Chang Chun laughed and said, "What else can I do, guard the palace of the empress and die for the rest of my life?"

She looked at Chang Xia and said, "Don't worry, the revenge has not been avenged. How could I do something stupid? I still want to go back to the palace with you."

Seeing that her expression was as usual, Chang Xia felt relieved, "I haven't avenged you yet, so you must wait."

Chang Chun patted her shoulder and said, "Go back quickly and be careful when you are at Xibi's place."

Chang Xia reluctantly left, Chang Chun watched her back with tears in his eyes.

She lowered her eyes and said in a small voice, "Chang Xia, I'm sorry. Your Majesty rescued me from the mud. I'm not as smart as you. The only thing I can do is to retaliate with death."

She raised her head, took one last look at Chang Xia's retreating back, and turned to leave.

Concubine De, you owe our empress, let me start first. I want you to never forget it day and night from now on.

——

When Concubine De learned that Zhao Feifei was dead, she just smiled lightly and said, "I have told you before that you should not take certain things too seriously."

She stood up and said, "The weather is nice today, let's go out for a walk."

After leaving Baishui Palace, Concubine De held Jade's hand and walked slowly in the garden.

She glanced at the tall building in front of her and said, "His Majesty once said that the scenery is most beautiful from here. Let's go and have a look today."

As she said this, she walked over, but as soon as she reached the foot of the tall building, Pearl beside her exclaimed, "Mother, be careful."

Concubine De was pulled away by her, staggered a few times and fell on Pearl. She only heard a bang and wet blood splashed on her face.

Concubine De looked in front of her blankly, feeling warm and hot on her cheeks.

In front of her, lying a bloody figure, a pair of eyes stared directly at her, probably with hatred.

"Ah." A scream rang out, and Jade hurriedly helped her up, "Mother."

Concubine De was helplessly lifted up by her, only to see a group of palace maids and eunuchs appear as she walked away in a panic.

Pearl was helped up, but she still cared about her and said, "My dear, my dear, are you okay?"

Concubine De's vision turned dark and she fainted.

——

"What did you say?" Meng Fangfei stood up in shock.

Dai Mei spoke quickly, "Chang Chun, the palace maid next to Zhao Feifei, jumped from the Tianxing Tower and died right in front of Concubine De. I heard that blood spattered all over her face."

——

Soon, the news spread. The cup in Fu Ronghua's hand tightened and then loosened, "He's dead."

Ruixue nodded, "She died. The body was taken to a mass grave. Concubine De was so shocked that she fainted and became ill when she woke up."

Fu Ronghua nodded slightly, "It's from the bottom of my heart." She just said this lightly and said nothing more.

In the White Water Palace, Concubine De's face was pale and she looked a little dazed, but she was cruel and bit her lip to suppress the sudden tremor, "What a loyal palace maid."

She clenched her hands tightly and dug her nails into her palms, pulling her out of the fear. Although her face was pale, her eyes were as if they were quenched with poison.

Jade brought her soothing tea and said, "Your Majesty."

Concubine De took it and drank it, "I'm fine." Although her face was pale, she finally regained her composure, but her hand holding the porcelain bowl was still shaking.
