Ye Chu looked at the two who were being dragged away crying, and sighed leisurely.

In the final analysis, He Ruoxue also wanted to help Ye Kang, that was her father.

Ye Chu felt somewhat guilty, but she also understood that there was no room for maneuver in this matter.

Even if it's her, she has to weigh it up, if this is the case today, and it's her who was discovered, can she get out of it unscathed.

She thought about it, probably not.

Wen Zheng valued his country so much, no matter who violated his bottom line, I'm afraid it would not end well.

Ye Chu looked at Wen Zheng, "Your Majesty, how do you plan to deal with them?"

Wen Zheng's mood calmed down a little, and he softened his tone, "If it's the queen, what will the queen do?"

"Your Majesty, don't embarrass your concubine."

"You don't have to worry about the queen. I will take care of this matter. Let's call it a day. I will send the queen back to the palace."

Wen Zheng interrupted the conversation, and Ye Chu didn't ask any more questions.

Ye Chu didn't need to think about this matter, He Ruoxue's life might not be saved.

Even if the bachelor can save his life, he should spend the rest of his life in prison.

Ye Chu lowered his eyes and sighed leisurely.

If the emperor knew that the mastermind behind this scene was Ye Kang, what would he do?

Ye Chu stroked his forehead, only to feel a splitting headache.

She forced herself not to think about it anymore, and let everything take its course.

She herself is struggling every step of the way now, how can she take care of other things.

After a few days, Guard Qi told Ye Chu, "Concubine Rong was bestowed to death by the emperor, and the scholar was imprisoned forever."

Ye Chu's eyes closed slightly, just as she guessed.

What she didn't know was that Qin Xinrou was assigned the task of killing He Ruoxue.

Firstly, Wen Zheng was afraid that Ye Chu would be tired, and secondly, Ye Chu was pregnant, so he didn't want Ye Chu to be stained with blood.

Moreover, both He Ruoxue and Qin Xinrou are not on the same boat, so it is most appropriate to send her there.

Qin Xinrou was naturally happy to accept this task. She took her maid and poisoned wine to the prison.

It's just been closed for two days, Qin Xinrou almost didn't recognize He Ruoxue anymore.

If the guard guarding the prison hadn't pointed it out, she really wouldn't have recognized it.

"Open the door." Qin Xinrou put her hands on her chest, and there was a flash of sympathy in her eyes.

He Ruoxue slowly raised his head when he heard the sound.

Her hair is disheveled and dirty, and all accessories have been removed because she was thrown into prison.

At this moment, her face is haggard, her complexion is yellow and thin, she really doesn't look like a beauty.

Seeing Qin Xinrou, He Ruoxue frowned, "What are you doing here?"

Qin Xinrou looked to the side, He Ruoxue followed her gaze, and saw the maid beside her holding a jug of wine.

Don't even think about it, you know what it is...

He Ruoxue's lips trembled slightly, she knelt on the ground, tears finally flowed down her face, "It turns out...the emperor really doesn't miss old love at all... After all, I think it's too good..."

"If you want me to say, Concubine Rong, you are also a fool. Discuss some scientific examinations with a bachelor. Could it be that you still want to learn from Emperor Wu and win the throne?"

He Ruoxue closed her eyes, two tears rolled down, reached out to take the poisoned wine from the plate, and put it to her mouth, "It's useless to talk more."

Seeing that He Ruoxue was about to put the poisoned wine into her mouth, Qin Xinrou immediately grabbed her wrist, "What's the rush?"

He Ruoxue frowned, "Concubine Shu, what do you mean by this? Could it be that she still wants to humiliate me? Now that I've come to this point, even if it's humiliation, I'll suffer it too."

Qin Xinrou snorted softly, "If I had spoken like that on weekdays, I would have slapped you long ago."

After speaking, she glanced at the maid beside her and signaled that she could start.

He Ruoxue was a little puzzled, her eyes turned back and forth between the two of them.

When the maid took off a human skin mask from her face, revealing a face exactly like hers, He Ruoxue couldn't help but widen her eyes, "What... what does this mean?"

"Now there is a way to survive in front of you, it depends on whether you are willing to choose."

He Ruoxue didn't agree immediately, but asked very vigilantly: "What do you want me to do?"

"It's nothing, but I want you to join me and bring down the queen. However, if you choose to live, you can only be a maid in my palace, and you will never be able to show your true colors. Would you like to ?”

He Ruoxue clenched her fists, she didn't want to die, but she didn't seem willing to let her live like that.

Seeing her hesitating, Qin Xinrou stood up and sighed, "Well, it seems that Concubine Rong still doesn't want to live. Then drink this poison, and within a short while, it will rot in the intestines, which is extremely hideous."

When He Ruoxue heard that she was terrified, she nodded quickly, "Okay, I am willing! I want to live!"

Qin Xinrou raised her hand, and the maid handed over the human skin mask.

He Ruoxue gritted her teeth, and put the mask on her face.

The two changed their clothes again, and the maid washed He Ruoxue again, so the two were successfully switched.

The maid picked up the poisoned wine on the plate and drank it without any hesitation.

Before He Ruoxue came back to her senses, the maid's roar sounded in the prison.

It was the churning, rotting cry of guts.

He Ruoxue only felt that her hairs stood on end, she was dripping with cold sweat, and her back was full of coolness.

She glanced at the maid who had fallen to the ground, her expression was in agony, and not long after, blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, and she died.

He Ruoxue was so frightened that her hands and feet were cold, she said dully, "Why...why is she willing to die for me..."

Qin Xinrou glanced indifferently at the corpse on the ground, and then at He Ruoxue next to her like a fool, "The reason is very simple. After she dies, her family can have enough food and clothing."

After listening to Qin Xinrou's words, He Ruoxue didn't recover for a long time.

It was Qin Xinrou who got a little impatient, stared at her and reprimanded: "What are you thinking! Hurry up and leave!"

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qin Xinrou successfully took Concubine Rong for her own use.

Compared with He Guiren, Concubine Rong can use it more conveniently, but Concubine Rong has stayed in the palace for a long time.

He Guiren listened to Qin Xinrou's idea and devoted himself to serving the Queen Mother. The residual poison of the Queen Mother has been cured, and her body is getting stronger day by day.

The Queen Mother didn't reward He Guiren anything, but the Emperor came several times and rewarded a lot of things.

It's just that when the queen mother's body is well, she always wants to make some noise, and she suffers when she hears about it.

The last time I went to visit the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother actually mentioned the matter of drafting, how could he have any thoughts on drafting.

Right now, the scientific examination is coming, even if there is no scientific examination, these concubines in the palace are enough for him, he doesn't want to worry about the affairs of the harem all day long.
