Suddenly, water broke out in Chuxiu Palace, and a fire broke out into the sky. Dozens of palace officials rushed to bring water to put out the fire.
The commotion was so loud that it reached Concubine Ji's palace. She suddenly woke up from her dream and asked, "What's the commotion outside?"
"Go back to the Imperial Concubine, the Chuxiu Palace has been compromised."
Concubine Ji was so frightened that she fell asleep. She hurriedly put on her clothes and rushed to Chuxiu Palace. She anxiously ordered people to put out the fire.
"Aunt." Ji Guiren rushed over with disheveled hair, obviously frightened.
But at this time, Concubine Ji couldn't care less about comforting Guiren Ji. She held her shoulders and asked, "How is Rong Qiyue?"
When Ji Guiren heard about her aunt asking about Rong Qiyue, Ji Guiren pursed her lips and felt even more aggrieved. However, Ji Guiren yelled loudly and was so frightened that she immediately said: "I didn't see Rong Qiyue, I only knew that the house suddenly caught fire, almost
I won’t be able to escape.”
Concubine Ji didn't have time to listen to what she said. She ordered the guards to save Rong Qiyue no matter what. Ji Guiren whispered: "With such a big fire, the people inside would have been burned to ashes long ago, and the fire was as bright as Concubine Rong Qiyue."
Get up."
Concubine Ji followed her line of sight, and sure enough, the very center of Chuxiu Palace was surrounded by fire, almost dyeing half of the sky.
"Look for it! No matter whether you are dead or alive, I have to find it for you!"
She stood waiting not far away, watching countless people put out the fire with great difficulty, and found a total of two corpses, one of which was Rong Qiyue.
"Little Master Rong is dead?"
Feng Nihuang, who came later, was dubious, and then thoroughly investigated Rong Qiyue. Feng Nihuang couldn't accept his sudden death.
Concubine Ji squinted at Feng Nihuang: "Why does the princess want to see Young Master Rong? I remember that the princess never interferes in the affairs of a beautiful girl. How can you care so much about a beautiful girl so late?"
And Feng Nihuang has always looked down on Concubine Ji, even though the other party has already consecrated her to the concubine, she said angrily: "There hasn't been a fire in the palace for a long time, why did such a thing happen as soon as the concubine took over? The concubine should think about it carefully.
How can I explain this to my father? My father attaches great importance to this group of beautiful women."
After saying that, Feng Nihuang turned around and left without paying any attention to Concubine Ji.
However, Concubine Ji said coldly: "The Emperor has decreed that the Queen should not be allowed to visit, and no one is allowed to disturb the Queen's rest. It is so late, and the Princess should not stay in the palace..."
"Concubine Ji is just teaching me how to do things?" Feng Nihuang's eyes were full of disdain.
It was this disdain that deeply irritated Concubine Ji. She immediately brought the matter to Emperor Nanyang, rubbing the corners of her eyes and crying: "I am the concubine who is ashamed of facing the emperor. I beg the emperor to take back my life and return the power of the harem to the empress."
.”
Emperor Nanyang was woken up in the middle of the night. He was already in a bad mood, and when he heard that Chuxiu Palace had been burned down, he immediately became depressed.
"Father, this is Concubine Ji's dereliction of duty, and she burned two beautiful girls to death..." Feng Nihuang came later. She knelt on the ground and tried to help Queen Feng speak: "When the Queen Mother was in charge of the harem, she had never
There has never been such a big mistake.”
Little did he know that these words made Emperor Nanyang frown: "Why, are you questioning my way of looking at people?"
Feng Nihuang's face paused slightly, and she was frightened by Emperor Nanyang's eyes. She watched with her own eyes as Emperor Nanyang stretched out his hand to help Concubine Ji, and comforted her softly: "You were also frightened today, I will investigate this matter thoroughly.
It’s clear, you can go back first.”
Concubine Ji nodded quickly and glared at Feng Nihuang before leaving.
No one knows what exactly Nanyang Emperor and Feng Nihuang talked about. The next day, they only learned that Feng Nihuang was banned from entering the palace without an edict.
The news reached Queen Feng's ears. Her son was grounded, her daughter was kicked out of the palace, and she was deprived of power. In just a few days, the situation became increasingly out of control.
"I just found out some signs, and Rong Qiyue died..." The more Empress Feng thought about it, the more something was wrong. She could no longer sit still and wait for death. She ordered the palace people: "Go and send a message to the emperor. I want to see you."
Once I meet the emperor."
The palace man went out for a trip and came back quickly. He lowered his head and said, "In reply to the concubine, the concubine has sent people to guard the Changchun Palace. No one is allowed to enter or leave."
Upon hearing this, Queen Feng's face darkened: "How dare a mere noble concubine dare to obstruct me? You are overestimating your capabilities."
Empress Feng stood up and decided to go see Emperor Nanyang in person. She was stopped by the guards when she reached the palace gate. Before she could get angry, she saw Concubine Ji, dressed in brocade and rich clothes, walking over with many maids.
Being pointed at the tip of her nose and scolded, Concubine Ji's face changed slightly.
"Go and report to the emperor quickly. Remember not to let Chu Xuazhi leave the palace in the chaos. And Rong Qiyue is not a beautiful girl at all, but Jiang Yunxu pretending to be." Empress Feng didn't believe that it was Jiang Yun who died in the fire.
wadding.
Concubine Ji was not annoyed when she heard the words, and said calmly: "The queen does not need to worry about this matter. The queen should rest more when she has time..."
"Pah!" Empress Feng raised her hand and slapped Concubine Ji hard on the face, and said angrily: "If you don't report it quickly, I will ruin something big and I won't let you go easy!"
Queen Feng has not dealt with Concubine Ji in these years. On the one hand, she does not bother to do anything with her. On the other hand, the Ji family is one of the largest families in Nanyang. The Ji family is very wealthy. Nanyang needs the support of the Ji family. The most important thing is Ji family.
The imperial concubine is a simple-minded fool. She has everything under control and poses no threat to Empress Feng, so she tolerates her until now.
After being beaten inexplicably, Concubine Ji also exploded. She covered her face and said sternly: "Come here, please stop the Queen. You are not allowed to step out of Changchun Palace with the Queen."
