Leng Qiyue coldly snorted. "Hmph, everyone knows that the empress dowager has two trusted aides by her side. Celebration and herb, I just want to dig them up one by one." The empress dowager's words just now were a warning not to betray her, so how could I not hear it? Besides, I'm not trying to rope her in, I'm trying to take revenge for Xi Er. "
Han Liu then asked, "So what does the Empress plan to do with her?" This servant feels uncomfortable letting her stay in the palace like raising a snake. "
Leng Qiyue thought for a moment before saying, "Send her to do some heavy work first, in a few days she'll go to the kitchen to do some work."
Han Liu was shocked and asked, "Why does the Empress want to arrange this?" Aren't you afraid that she will poison you? "
Leng Qiyue smiled faintly, "I'm just afraid that she won't poison us."
Han Liu said with some understanding, "But the Empress doesn't need to take such risks!"
Leng Qiyue took a deep breath and suppressed the heaviness in her chest. She said, "If I don't enter the tiger's den, how will I obtain a tiger's body?"
Although Han Liu disagreed, she knew that she was powerless to dissuade him. It seemed that she had to be more alert in the future and watch the celebration unfold.
That night, Dongfang Haotian arrived at the Moon Flower Palace. When he entered the sect, he wasn't surprised to see Qing Xin. It seemed like he had already known about this since a long time ago.
Leng Qiyue knew that Dongfang Haotian had come, but she just lay there without moving. The anger in her heart had not yet subsided.
Dongfang Haotian didn't blame him. He sat down on the bed and smiled: "Still angry?"
Leng Qiyue asked, "How are you going to deal with Lin Fei?"
Dongfang Haotian frowned and said, "Lin Fei is pregnant …"
Leng Qiyue suddenly sat up and fiercely glared at Dongfang Haotian: "She just gave birth to a child not too long ago, how could she get pregnant again? When did you two get together? "
Dongfang Haotian helplessly said, "In fact, she never had a slip tire."
"Impossible. Why would she hate me if she didn't have a slipper? And it even harmed the life of Xifei? If she didn't have a flat tire, her belly would have bulged out by now. " Leng Qiyue did not believe his words.
Dongfang Haotian painfully said, "I didn't touch her. At first, she was a fake. Then, she really became pregnant. But, I can guarantee that the child wasn't mine."
Leng Qiyue grabbed his sleeve and said, "Then can you decree her death? You can find out the date of your pregnancy just by checking the records in the office. If you don't get lucky, she's a capital offense. "
Dongfang Haotian let out a long sigh and said, "I've seen the records of the steward's room. The empress dowager had already done something to it, so it's impossible to pin her down as a criminal. Unless the child is born, the blood test will be conducted."
Leng Qiyue loosened her grip on Dongfang Haotian's sleeve and lowered her head in thought.
Dongfang Haotian said, "It's better for you to send the celebration back. The empress dowager actually doesn't know about this matter. Lin Fei was the one who handled it." Qing Xi is the Empress Dowager's confidant, and I fear she will harm you. "
Leng Qiyue shook her head. "That won't do. I have to keep her alive and torture her until she is willing to identify Lin Fei as the person who killed her."
Dongfang Haotian shook his head and said, "Don't be silly. After you went to get the celebration, the empress dowager found out about this and gave the imperial decree saying that Imperial Concubine Xi had suddenly died from an illness and would be buried in the imperial concubine garden tomorrow."
"Hmph, she's in such a hurry because she has a guilty conscience. Haotian, can't you think of a way to take revenge for Xi`er?" You also have responsibilities for the death of my child. " Leng Qiyue asked with a softer tone.
Dongfang Haotian patted the back of her hand and said, "Don't think about anything else. Take good care of your baby. One day, I will help you vent your anger."
Leng Qiyue shook off Dongfang Haotian's hand and angrily said: "Go, I don't want to see you. If you don't help me, I'll avenge Xi`er."
Dongfang Haotian gently advised: "Don't be angry, it's not good for your child. Just wait a little longer, okay? I'll give you a bit of an explanation. "
Leng Qiyue snorted coldly, "Hmph, to think that you're still an emperor. You can't even deal with a single concubine."
After being ridiculed, Dongfang Haotian didn't get angry and continued to laugh: "Yes, yes, your husband is useless, Lin Fei's death isn't worth lamenting. It's just that she's the empress dowager's daughter, so if she touched Lin Fei, it would be equivalent to touching the empress dowager. They wouldn't even dare to do anything like that, so you can see that the empress dowager doesn't put me in her eyes at all."
Leng Qiyue suddenly thought of the Tiger Tally that Yu Fei had given her before she died. "Before Lin Fei died, she gave me a Jade Tally so I could trade it with her father for the Tiger Tally. Do you have any use?"
Dongfang Haotian's eyes lit up and he asked, "You have the jade talisman here?"
Leng Qiyue nodded. Dongfang Haotian excitedly said, "That's great. With this Tiger Tally, I no longer need to fear the empress dowager's forces. Instead, she will fear me. "Where is the jade talisman?"
Leng Qiyue did not answer, but asked, "With the Tiger Tally, will you deal with Lin Fei?"
Dongfang Haotian frowned and said, "She can't die yet."
Leng Qiyue's anger shot up and she kicked Dongfang Haotian out of bed. She hatefully said, "Do you love me or not? Why don't you let her die?"
Dongfang Haotian stood up and didn't get angry. He said, "She still has some use. If she dies, you won't be able to live either."
Leng Qiyue was startled. It turned out that Dongfang Haotian was worried about her life. A warm feeling suddenly appeared in her heart, and her expression also eased up quite a bit.
"It's better if I go out of the palace to retrieve the Tiger Tally. Otherwise, the empress dowager knows that you have the Tiger Tally so she can take it." I also don't want you to be in danger. After all, no one in this dynasty will be able to take on the heavy responsibility of the Emperor. "
When Dongfang Haotian heard this, he felt a bit upset. He said, "So it turns out that my beloved concubine thinks that there is no one capable of succeeding her. If there is someone qualified, would you drag me down from the throne?"
Leng Qiyue glanced at him and firmly said, "Definitely."
Dongfang Haotian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He sighed and said: "Okay, if that day ever comes, then I will obediently go with you."
What they didn't know was that this joke would come true after more than ten years.
Dongfang Haotian thought for a moment and said: "Don't go out in the near future. The matter of the Tiger Tally isn't urgent. The most important thing right now is to distract the empress dowager's attention from this, otherwise you might be in danger at any time."
Leng Qiyue frowned. "The empress dowager's attention is divided into two parts. One is on you, while the other is on me. We have to think of a way to divert our attention from me to you. I don't want to harm the fetus."
Dongfang Haotian sat down again and said, "Is there any way to protect your wife?"
Leng Qiyue began to count down her fingers as she tried to think of a solution. She began thinking of five of them, but the result was that her thoughts were overturned and she started to think again. Dongfang Haotian saw that she was conflicted and said with a heartbroken heart: "Don't think about it for now. Rest well. I'll accompany you today."
Leng Qiyue didn't even hear his words and didn't react. Instead, she lowered her head and continued to count on her fingers as she tried to think of a solution.
When Han Liu heard that the emperor was going to rest at the Palace of Moonflower, she immediately began to prepare dinner.
After a long time, Leng Qiyue suddenly thought of an idea and said, "How about … a talent show!"
