Xue ronghua gently breathed the moist air in the cold palace, which seemed to be mixed with a musty smell, which made people frown. Wave your handkerchief between your nose and breath. Trying to get rid of the unpleasant smell.

The eunuch smiled and said, "inside is Zhao's room. Just go in, Miss Xue, and the servant is waiting outside."

"You don't have to wait. I'm quite clear about the route in the palace. Go back to your own residence to serve the master first. I don't need you to worry about it here."

The eunuch was stunned. Some people said, "but is miss here alone? Does miss want to see Zhao alone?"

"Or I'll take you," Xue ronghua chuckled. "You don't have to worry about me. I think you're still afraid of such a gloomy place as the cold palace. If you're afraid, go back first. I won't tell others you'll go first."

The eunuch wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. "Be careful, miss. The cold palace is the most haunted place in the imperial palace. Many people have heard the voice of women crying inside. Besides, Zhao is crazy. I'm afraid she will hurt miss if she goes crazy."

"Don't worry. I can't even control a weak woman," Xue ronghua waved impatiently. "Just go down. If you're by my side, I can't take care of two people if she hurts you."

When the eunuch entered the cold palace, he was already shaking all over. When I heard her say this, I wanted to leave this damn place for a long time. "What the young lady said is, thank you for your understanding. The servant will leave right away."

"Go."

Xue ronghua tilted his mouth and saw a red figure in the inner room. It must be Zhao's wandering in the room. She estimated that she walked quietly, and suddenly heard a burst of silver bell like laughter, "princess to be, how did you come here? I thought you were becoming a queen and didn't have much time to talk to the palace."

Xue ronghua's eyes darkened and slowly saw Zhao Qingyao standing at the door with a sad face. She took a deep breath and was almost choked by the musty smell. She still gave her a gift. "My daughter paid a visit to the imperial concubine."

"Your ceremony is a little strange. Now the palace is just a prisoner of the new emperor. There is no meaning for the queen to salute me," Zhao Qingyao said with a smile. "It should be the palace for you."

Xue ronghua looked at her pale cheeks and hesitated: "my mother seems to be in good spirits. I thought she was really crazy."

"If the palace were not crazy, it would have been killed by the first emperor and could still live in the cold palace?" Zhao Qingyao snorted coldly. "The palace can't escape the first emperor, but also the new emperor. In short, the identity of the palace is just a dead word."

"The empress doesn't have to worry. It's smart to pretend to be crazy to avoid the responsibility of the former Emperor," Xue ronghua narrowed his eyes slightly. "But the new emperor really can't accommodate the empress. What the empress has done is too strange. The new emperor can't rest assured of the empress anyway."

"So did the new emperor send you to kill the palace?" Zhao Qingyao gave her a faint look. "In the final analysis, the palace is ready, and I'm not afraid you'll call me dead. Come on, is it poison wine or white Ling or dagger? The palace asks for a pleasure."

Xue ronghua didn't expect her to look indifferent. Zhao Qingyao saw through her mind and raised a sad smile on her lips. "Since entering the palace, the palace has long put life and death aside. It's just a life. Only the emperor's life is the most valuable in this harem. His harem like me has 3000, which is nothing."

"You know the new emperor has a beloved, Mrs. Heyi. I'm afraid her life is more valuable than the emperor's life," sighed Xue ronghua. "But it still depends on the emperor's eyes. Although they are women in the harem, there is always a level."

Zhao Qingyao stared at her with cold eyes for a while, "why, is the new emperor bad for you?"

"It's not bad. It's just that they are all women in the harem. It's hard to avoid some rabbit death and fox sorrow when they see you now," Xue ronghua said with a low eyebrow. "I'm not a queen yet, and you don't have to call me queen. If you were bent on us and wouldn't raise the prince and move crooked thoughts, the new emperor wouldn't kill you now."

"In any case, he will kill me. It has nothing to do with what's facing you," said Zhao Qingyao hissing. "You know, settling accounts after autumn is what every emperor will do. I'm just his sum in the liquidation."

Xue ronghua looked at her. "Did you kill Princess Zhao? Did you really kill your own sister?"

Zhao Qingyao was stunned, lowered her eyelids and said, "she is not my own sister, but my heart has always regarded her as my own sister. Killing her and her children is the deepest thing I have done wrong."

"What's the use of your confession now? She's gone," Xue ronghua frowned and a strange light flashed across his eyes. "Can the harem really affect people to such a degree that you can ignore your own daughter and dare to reach out and kill your good sister."

"You are deeply loved by the new emperor. Even if there are other women in his harem, you will love you alone. Of course, you will not understand the pain of concubines like us. Do you know what it's like for a person to watch the man he loves deeply in other women and wait for him to sleep every day? Since you don't know, why blame me?" Zhao Qingyao's voice was hoarse, like a piece of torn gauze. "I didn't want to. I thought that as long as I loved the emperor, I could be safe in the back palace. However, it wasn't so. I found that my sister didn't let me into the palace to help me, but was just using me to stop the attacks of other women for her."

Xue ronghua lifted up his lips and said, "I know what you mean, but you can't do such a thing. You blinded your eyes for your own interests. Have you ever thought that you could have lived better in the harem together with your sister, and your vision is too short-sighted to see the future."

"Do you think my sister will really go hand in hand with me? You were in the state of Qi and didn't know anything," Zhao Qingyao bit her lower lip, "She just wants me to be her pedal and want me to serve her willingly, but I love the emperor more than her. The emperor is the only lover for me in this life, and in my sister's eyes, he is just the giver of glory and wealth."

"You're so naive. You love one by one. You don't know that the first emperor can't love you only," Xue ronghua glared at her. "The emperor has 3000 beautiful women in the harem, and you're just one of them."

"You don't understand. You think everyone has such good luck as you. You can hook the emperor's heart so that he can't fall in love with others." Zhao Qingyao doesn't know whether to envy or hate. "You don't know how much I envy you. If I had one tenth of your good luck, otherwise it would be me, not you, standing at the door of the cold palace."

"You still have such a mind. Your combat effectiveness is really tenacious. No wonder you can bring down the former queen," Xue ronghua frowned. "One of my greatest advantages is that I will never be impulsive and naive. I will always know what I want."

"That's nice, but even if you become a queen, you should be wary of whether the emperor will accept other women. The oath is as beautiful as fireworks, but it's easy to fall. You must be careful," said Zhao Qingyao with a meaningful smile on her lips. "You said that Mrs. Heyi was loved by the emperor, but you can't hide the fact that she finally died in the hands of the emperor."

Xue ronghua was stunned and said coldly, "since you already know that you are exhausted, I don't have to say more about the next thing."

"Why, I was right?" Zhao Qingyao picked her eyebrows and saw her take out a bottle from her sleeve. Her eyes were cold and glittering. "Is this poisonous wine? I used to see that the Emperor gave her a dead concubine. The bottle seems different."

"What do you care about the bottle? Just drink it. Don't you already know your death date, so you don't have to worry about these details," Xue ronghua sighed faintly. "I thought we would be good allies when we met again. I didn't expect things to be like this."

Zhao Qingyao smiled silently. When she opened the bottle, she drank it without hesitation. Xue ronghua looked at her determined face and couldn't bear it for a time. From innocence to resourcefulness, she has experienced so many sweet or unbearable things, and has become a woman who is not surprised in the face of life and death.

"Rest in peace, your princess. I'll let someone bring you up."

A trace of loneliness flashed between Zhao Qingyao's eyebrows and eyes. "What princess is not just a child. I don't have any kinship with my children. They are the emperor's children, not mine. They were born to compete for my favor. Unfortunately, they didn't play their due role. I'm still nervous about what she does. Let her live casually."

Xue ronghua couldn't believe his ears and looked at her in surprise. "If you really put life and death aside, you don't even care about your children. Is your heart dead?"

"My heart has long died, but I'm just living here," Zhao Qingyao slowly closed her eyes and her voice became more and more low, "I know what you're thinking. I'm not a good sister, a good concubine, or a good mother. But think about it carefully. Your sister is taking advantage of you, and your emperor is just greedy for your young body. Let alone your children. They will be yours when you give birth, and when they grow up, they will be the emperor of the emperor Son, do you think it's funny? I've always been making wedding clothes for others. "

Xue ronghua's complicated eyes fell on her face, "you drank poisonous wine and will soon die of poisoned hair. It's better to save some energy, otherwise you will be very painful when you have poisoned hair."

"Everyone will die. I'm just one who drinks poison wine," Zhao Qingyao's lips turned blue and purple. "I'm from here, but I'm just giving you a word or two. Don't really think you're relaxed. The trouble is still ahead."
