Ji Xie didn't take it seriously. The problem of face was easy to deal with. After his death, he could just be buried according to the etiquette of a concubine. Who dares to say anything if he is famous and worthy? As for the Ji State, it has become the same as the Qi State because of the assassination of Qi Aihou.

, now you can only rely on the big tree of the Zhou royal family, why do you dare to have any second thoughts? If Ji Jiang is killed, maybe the new Marquis of Qi will have to come to Haojing to plead guilty, so how can he care about anything else?

?

In the dark room, as soon as the door opened, a ray of light cut through the darkness like a sharp arrow. Ji Jiang, whose hair was disheveled, squinted her eyes and looked at the ray of light. When she saw that it was Ji Xie, she felt as if she was receiving amnesty.

, crawled to Ji Xie's feet and cried: "Cousin, you are finally here! I knew you had me in your heart, cousin!"

Ji Xie kicked her to the ground in disgust: "For the sake of our past friendship, I came here to say goodbye to you. I also want to hear what else you have to say, so as not to cause trouble again!"

When Ji Jiang turned around, he saw the white silk in the tray in the hand of the chamberlain Jia. His whole body was shaking like chaff: "Your Majesty, do you want to kill me? No------don't------"

Her pretty almond eyes were filled with tears: "Your Majesty, the Queen's death really has nothing to do with the concubine! It was all done by Shu Diao himself. He came out of the palace to contact the Duke. It was all his doing.

"

Ji Xie grabbed her collar, lifted her up from the ground, and asked through gritted teeth: "Which Duke? Is it Zhou Gongding?"

His eyes were full of red bloodshot eyes, and his appearance was very scary. Ji Jiang was so frightened that he couldn't speak, so he could only nod his head. Ji Xie was slumped, and let go of her, saying in a helpless and desolate tone: "It's him too, Gu guess.

"

Seeing this, Ji Jiang hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Ji Xie's sleeves and begged: "Cousin, Your Majesty, do you know now? This matter has nothing to do with me. For the sake of Father Shang, please spare me.

!”

"It has nothing to do with you?" Ji Xie sneered: "Didn't Shu Diao use Qiu Liao Palace's waist card to enter and leave the palace? Do you dare to say that you don't know? And E Shan, you didn't tell her in the imperial garden, if

Once the queen dies, she will be the perfect candidate for the throne? Why, you have forgotten what you said? Do you need to remind me?"

As soon as the secret was revealed, Ji Jiang's face turned ashen, and he pursed his lips and said: "Concubine - I was not angry for a moment, so I said those words. But it was all done by E Shan.

Shu Diao, he has always been diligent and conscientious, and he is also the most powerful person around me. If he wants to leave the palace, it is not convenient for me to stop him! Please give me a warning, your Majesty."

Ji Xie suddenly pulled back his sleeves with such force that he brought Ji Jiang to the ground and said in a cold tone: "If the queen is still here, I can spare you. But now that I have been killed by you, which one of you can I spare?"

Ji Jiang's eyes widened, as if it was the first day she met the man in front of her. Suddenly she burst out laughing: "Hahaha--it turns out I have been dreaming! Your favorite person has always been the queen.

, in this case, why did you stay away from her and act like a husband and wife were not harmonious in front of others? I was deceived by you and thought you didn't like the queen. I thought you had a chance. It turns out——

--" She laughed wildly again: "It turned out to be a dream!"

"Shut up!" Ji Xie suddenly became impatient, pointed at Ji Jiang and cursed: "You crazy woman! You have been targeting the queen since you entered the palace. If it weren't for you, I would not have left Gu so early. You are so

Bitch!”

"Really?" Ji Jiang suddenly stood up and looked directly into his eyes: "Did I harm the queen? In fact, the king knows better than anyone else that it was the king himself who killed her! We concubines, if it weren't for the king himself

His behavior has misled us. Who would have the guts to murder the queen? Didn’t the king seal the palace himself? Who is to blame now?"

"You------" Ji Xie was trembling with anger, but suddenly calmed down in his extreme anger. He gently put down his hand: "That's all, I don't want to have a meaningless fight with you. You are also a general anyway.

——Dead——the——person!”

He turned his back and winked at Jia, the chamberlain. The latter understood, took a step forward and said, "The second concubine is on her way!"

Ji Jiang's face was pale, and the fear in her pupils was overflowing. She rushed forward and snatched Bai Ling into her arms. She didn't know where she got the strength to tear it into pieces, and the white silk pieces scattered like snowflakes.

At this time, Ji Jiang was like a mad woman: "If I don't die, I won't die. I am the princess of Ji State, the second concubine of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the biological mother of the second prince. Who dares to touch me?"

Ji Xie didn't bother to turn around at all, and only left a cold sentence: "In another hour, she will be buried."

"promise!"

The chamberlain Jia raised his head with a fierce look in his eyes and said to Qi Zhong: "Since the empress is not willing to go on the journey, we have to give her a ride!"

Qi Zhong understood, took out a short rope made of cowhide from his sleeve, and walked towards Ji Jiang step by step. Ji Jiang's eyes were horrified, he shook his head desperately, and let out a shrill scream: "Father Shang, when you grow up, you are going to

Avenge your mother! -------"

In less than a stick of incense, the chamberlain Jia came out of the dormitory with a cold sweat on his face. Ji Xie had not left yet and was standing under the old locust tree in the courtyard waiting for his return. When he heard the footsteps, he did not look back: "It's over.

Yet?"

"Your Majesty, Concubine Ji Ci is dead." The voice of the chamberlain Jia was a little trembling, and he asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, what's the next step, Duke Zhou------"

"There's no rush." ​​Ji Xie nodded: "Let's take care of all the people in Duke Zhao's hands first."

Ji Jiang's funeral arrangements were very perfunctory. Although she was buried as a second concubine, she was buried without any artifacts or burial objects. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that King Zhou Yi hated her very much. Compared with Queen Fanji, she was

One is in the sky and the other is underground.

Within a few days, the decree came down. All the criminals in Zhao Bohu's hands were dealt with: the two Wen Po and Mei Zi were executed in Lingchi and the clan was exterminated; Aunt Hu was cut in half and the whole family was expelled from Hao Jing. Shu Diao was dead but still could not be exempted from punishment.

, hung his body with his head outside the city gate and exposed it for seven days, and all his family members executed him. Although the little chamberlain outside the middle palace gate had committed suicide, like the little palace maid Meng Gui who was executed, his family members

Quan was exiled to the northwest frontier and was not allowed to move for three generations. As for the old doctor who had been treating the queen, he took pity on her for months of hard work and allowed her to commit suicide. His family was also expelled from Haojing.

Within a few days, the market in Haojing was crowded with people, and there were executions to watch every day. People in the city were in a state of flux, and everyone in the royal family was in danger. They were afraid that if someone accidentally offended the king of Zhou, they would be given poisonous wine and white silk.

. Everyone said that the king of Yi was now insane. As long as it had anything to do with the death of the queen, it would mean death.
