Seeing Imperial Concubine Huang take out the imperial edict, Jiang Zitong sobbed and said,""My Jiang family has always been loyal and diligent. Today, I was framed. I hope sister will see what I usually do and make decisions for me to avenge this injustice.”
Concubine Huang sighed." Younger Sister also knows that Your Majesty was framed. Why would she do such an unjust thing and seek her own death?" However, the imperial edict said that you ordered Jiang Huan to kill the king and offer the country to Jiang Huan, the Marquis of the East, to inherit Tang's world and replace him. The crime was heaven-defying. If that was really the case, the Empress knew how powerful it was. It was likely that no one could stop the crime of exterminating nine clans.”
Jiang Zitong beat her chest and stamped her feet as she cried,"Sister, please. My Jiang family is the daughter of Jiang Huanchu. My father is guarding Donglu. He is the leader of the 200 vassals. His official position is the best. His position is above that of the three princes. Her father was a relative of the country, and her daughter was the queen. Her status was above the four great dukes. Moreover, I have a son with the Emperor, Yin Jiao. He is the Crown Prince of the current dynasty. After the Emperor lives long, he will inherit the throne. I am the Empress Dowager. I have endless wealth and wealth. What else do I want?”
Imperial Concubine Huang nodded after hearing this, and her expression began to relax.
Jiang Zitong continued," Although I'm a woman, I'm also the descendant of a general. I've seen great storms. How could I be so stupid? Why would I do something that I know can't be done?" Besides, my father isn't the only one among the vassals. If word gets out, the Emperor will listen to Daji's slanderous words and abolish the Queen, going against the will of heaven. The whole world will raise an army to denounce the crime and attack the Yellow Dragon. How can Chaoge be preserved forever? I hope my sister will investigate carefully and avenge this strange injustice. Madam Jiang was so grateful that she would never forget it.”
Queen Jiang's words were righteous and well-founded. Not to mention Imperial Consort Huang, even the palace maids beside her nodded repeatedly. She was the head of the harem, the mother of the world, and her power was at the peak. Her son was also the crown prince. She was in harmony with the Emperor and could not find any reason to assassinate the Emperor. Jiang Huan was bewitched and Fei Zhong had deliberately framed him. His series of actions were full of flaws. How could such a smart and capable King Zhou not see through it? It was unbelievable.
Concubine Huang was hesitating and could not make a decision. The imperial edict urged her to go to Longevity Immortal Palace by carriage to wait for the imperial edict. King Zhou had something to discuss with her.
Needless to say, it was definitely Su Daji's idea to ask Royal Concubine Huang to go to Longevity Immortal Palace. She wanted to pursue the victory and punish the Queen for her crimes. She wanted to kill two birds with one stone.
Jiang Huan assassinated King Zhou, Fei Zhong framed the Queen, and the Nine-Tailed Fox Plan was very successful. He thought that the Emperor would kill the Jiang family on the spot to prevent future trouble. However, Nine-Tailed Fox did not expect King Zhou to investigate the case according to the procedure, nor did she expect that Royal Concubine Huang would personally interrogate him. When he was brought to the West Palace, he had actually left her control.
Jade Pipa Spirit Liu Pipa saw that things were not looking good and said to Nine-Tailed Fox,""Elder sister, King Zhou had Imperial Concubine Huang try the case for his own selfish motives. Imperial Concubine Huang and Jiang Zitong were in love and were as close as sisters. How could she believe that the Queen would find someone to assassinate the Emperor? Besides, although our plan is ingenious, it can't withstand scrutiny. There are too many flaws. Once King Zhou understood, it would be difficult to argue.”
Nine-Tailed Fox also became anxious. She gritted her teeth and cursed,"The fatuous ruler still remembers the old friendship and can't bear to do it. Jiang Huan and Fei Zhong are both despicable and capricious people. If we don't end this matter quickly, we will make things worse.”
Liu Pipa said,"The Jiang family is now in the West Palace. We can't overstep our boundaries and interrogate them. This will arouse the Emperor's suspicion." Then, he would call Concubine Huang to the Longevity Immortal Palace and see how she would report in front of King Zhou.”
Nine-Tailed Fox laughed coldly and said," What's there to discuss? Watch me use my methods to make that b * tch suffer a fate worse than death to vent the hatred in my heart."”
Royal Concubine Huang came to Longevity Immortal Palace and saw King Zhou sitting on the dragon throne sullenly with Su Daji beside him. The air was heavy and the atmosphere was tense. King Zhou went straight to the point when he saw her,""Did that slut confess?"
Royal Concubine Huang was not like the other Royal Concubines who were so afraid that their legs trembled when they saw King Zhou. The shadow of the punishment of "branding" lingered in their minds for a long time. Concubine Huang was not afraid of the shadow being slanted. She looked askew at Su Daji. This woman who was as beautiful as a fairy was as vicious as a scorpion in her heart. She would not consider the means to the person who hated her. She only cared about the result, the result that would make the other party's pain unforgettable. This should be how the world's most poisonous woman's heart came about.
Concubine Huang looked at King Zhou again, as if she did not know this man who had physical contact with her. She once admired this man and fell for him. She was willing to undress him and share his pleasure. Even if he was neglected in the future, he would not complain at all. Because he was once an indomitable man, a wise king. But now, he had become so obscene, cruel, ruthless, and heartless. He did not even let his wife off. Was it just for the sake of this beautiful woman in front of him?
Royal Concubine Huang did not want to think any further and calmly replied,""Your Majesty, ChenQie has been asked by the imperial edict, and the case is gradually becoming clear. The Queen is indeed wronged and has not committed any crime. There must be someone who deliberately confused right and wrong and framed them. Please investigate clearly, Your Majesty.”
"Are you so sure that Jiang Zitong is innocent?" asked King Zhou in disbelief.”
Concubine Huang repeated Queen Jiang's words from beginning to end and said to King Zhou,""Ever since Queen Jiang took charge of the harem, she has been diligent and has never made a big mistake. His Majesty knew this very well. As a queen, she had already reached the peak. Moreover, Yin Jiao was already the Crown Prince. After the Emperor died, he would inherit the throne. His sister would be the Empress Dowager. What was there to be lacking? If she dared to deceive her, she would cause the destruction of her clan.”
King Zhou was silent.
Concubine Huang continued," Your Majesty, the Queen's father, Jiang Huanchu, is an official of the Eastern Count. He is a relative of the Emperor and is known as a thousand-year-old by the princes. He is the best of the best." What right did he have to send someone to assassinate him? And the person he was looking for was the former family general, Jiang Huan. He gave someone something to use against him and walked right into the trap. Would the queen do something that even a three-year-old child could understand? The traitor was framed like this, with ulterior motives and no conscience. Can't Your Majesty tell?"
King Zhou was speechless. He thought that Concubine Huang's analysis was not unreasonable. The Queen and Jiang Huanchu were both extremely high officials, and Yin Jiao was the Crown Prince. He would ascend to the throne sooner or later. It was far-fetched to say that they rebelled. She couldn't help but hesitate, not knowing what to do.
Nine-Tailed Fox saw that things were not going well and was anxious, but she pretended to be calm and sneered.
"Why does the beauty have such an expression? Do you still have any doubts?" asked King Zhou.”
The nine-tailed fox glared at him and said,"Your Majesty is merciful and compassionate. I admire you." However, His Majesty did not know that Empress Huang had also been bewitched by that Empress Jiang. ChenQie heard that people who have never done anything spread the good and push the bad to others. How could the queen easily admit to such a big matter of killing the emperor and usurping the throne? Moreover, Jiang Huan was a person used by his father, Jiang Huanchu. After he was captured, he personally confessed that the Queen was the emissary. How could he deny it?”
Nine-tailed Fox was unreasonable, and King Zhou was skeptical and hesitant.
