C38 Wind and Cloud Change Close the Door
Meng Zixian had given him two choices. One was to slowly feel the blood loss in his body and die in despair, while the other was to speak the truth.
In reality, she did not cut very deeply, only heavily. However, in reality, it was only a small wound.
"Your family allowed you to come to this filthy palace. You were just a pawn."
"Are you really going to die for them?"
Meng Zixian whispered in her ear. The noble man Huai was in despair. He was sobbing and trembling all over.
"For others, are you really going to die in your own bed?"
"I felt my blood slowly flow, and then I died in despair."
"Of course, on the second day, not only will they discover that you will die from blood loss, I will also strip you of your clothes and find a man."
Meng Zixian said some vicious words, but he couldn't bear to do so.
"Are you sure you want to continue to talk tough? If you were to commit adultery with a man in the harem, your entire clan would be exterminated as well. "
Meng Zixian saw that she really couldn't take it anymore, so she opened her acupoints.
"I used a handkerchief to cover his nose and mouth during the hunt."
"He's a good man. He didn't kill me."
After saying that, noble Huai began to cry and curl up his body.
"Don't cry, if you attract anyone, I'll kill you right now!"
Meng Zixian was worried that her crying would attract the attention of the palace maids, so she continued to threaten her, "Who is the mastermind?"
"Imperial Concubine Rong .."
It was as if noble person Huai had lost his soul, slowly saying that he would answer any question he asked.
This time, Imperial Concubine Rong was the one who ordered her to use knockout drugs to stun Gu Jing City, and then kill someone afterwards. Perhaps it was because of her sudden appearance at that time, the first person to kill someone from the Imperial Family, Huai, was extremely frightened and quickly hid away.
"Remember, do not consider the person who wants to use you. You are not a chess piece. You are a human." With that, Meng Zixian turned and left.
Venerable Huai reached out his hand to touch his wrist. He realized that he wasn't injured at all, and it had already stopped bleeding.
She sat up and looked at the empty and quiet chamber. Silently, she shed tears.
She seemed to know who that person was.
Although the threat made her feel pain, that person's words made her heart skip a beat.
Meng Zixian was supposed to keep quiet, but she didn't make a move. She could feel that even noble Huai had his own helplessness; he might be an innocent person.
After learning everything that had happened, Meng Zixian was so excited that she couldn't sleep at all. When she woke up in the morning, it was already dark.
After dressing up, she quickly ran to where Jingfei was and sent a message through Jingfei, hoping to meet up with Song Qi in the evening because she had something important to tell her.
"Miss Song!"
Meng Zixian was about to leave when Jing Fei called out to her.
"May I ask, what is it?"
Meng Zixian hesitated for a long time before finally telling her, "It's about the handkerchief's progress. It's not easy to talk here. I hope esteemed imperial concubine can tell Song Que that we will meet at the same place."
Jing Fei's eyes dimmed as she watched Meng Zixian leave like a butterfly.
After Song Que had finished his work, he went to Consort Jing's sleeping quarters. When he arrived, he asked, "Today, I heard from my subordinate that Meng Zixian is here."
Quiet And Steadfast slowly poured tea for him and leisurely said, "Yes, she said the handkerchief made some progress, and also said, we'll meet at the same place."
Song Que frowned as he thought about it. He stood up and patted Jing Fei's shoulder, "I will go to her place first. I will come back after news."
Although Jing Fei was dissatisfied, she still said gently, "Business is more important. Go."
The place they were talking about was just Meng Zixian's palace.
Meng Zixian sat in the yard with his legs crossed, while Ling'er laid on the bed.
"Yo, you're finally here."
Meng Zixian said excitedly when she saw a shadow.
"What news."
Meng Zixian told Song Que everything she had heard last night.
"I took a lot of effort to pry open Honorable Huai's mouth, shouldn't you give me a few more treasures?"
Meng Zixian laughed.
"Well done this time."
Hearing Song Que's praise, Mencius smiled even more happily.
"Since it's like this today, I have to go investigate it again."
Song Que also came and went in a hurry. He left in a flash, leaving behind a gust of wind.
Meng Zixian pursed her lips. Her excitement suddenly disappeared like the tide. She turned back to her room and lay down on her bed. Because she was being perfunctory, she was sulking for the most part of the night.
As for Jingfei, she had waited a whole night for Song Qi. She had a stomach full of tea, and her heart was filled with depression and suspicion.
The morning sunlight was tranquil and elegant, without a hint of noise. It made people feel at ease and relaxed.
Jingfei opened the door and walked out, behind her was a broken teacup.
Meng Zixian was currently sleeping soundly. No one disturbed her; she wouldn't be able to get up unless it was late in the morning.
Song Qi had investigated all night long and was very tired. It was not until now that he remembered his agreement with Jingfei. But now that it was daytime, there were too many people around, so he could only give up.
Different thoughts ran through his mind, but there were still many conspiracies hidden in the harem that were slowly fermenting.
Meng Zixian was bored for yet another day. When night came, she prepared to scout around.
After changing into night clothes, his body was as light as a swallow as he moved on top of the tiles.
As she happened to pass by Gu Jing City's residence, she suddenly became curious. She casually picked up a tile and peeked at it.
In the end, he saw an unexpected person — — Song Qi River.
Song Que's face looked tired and haggard. Under the dim yellow light of the candle, he still looked as handsome as ever.
"What did you find out?"
"The power behind Imperial Concubine Rong is deeply rooted. I wonder which line is correct."
As soon as Meng Zijue finished listening, he was discovered.
Gu Jing Cheng chased after Meng Zian and started to fight with him. Seeing that they were about to fall, Meng Zixian took off her mask and quickly said, "We are on our own!"
Perhaps Song Que He heard the commotion and slowly walked out. He looked at the roof which was missing tiles and then looked at Meng Zian: "I didn't improve."
Meng Zixian smiled embarrassedly.
Indeed, the last time she was captured, it was because she used this method to eavesdrop on Imperial Concubine Rong.
"So you really do know each other!" Meng Zixian finally reacted.
Previously, Song Que's attitude was not clear, and he wasn't indifferent to Gu Jing City. She had always been suspicious of him.
Song Que didn't pay attention to him. He called Gu Jing City into the house. Meng Zixian followed behind, but got the door closed.
"No matter what, I am a meritorious general!" Meng Zixian couldn't help but mutter to herself.
The door opened and it was Song Que. He coldly warned, "Do what you should do. Don't listen to what you shouldn't."
She saw Gu Jingcheng leisurely sitting at the table, sipping his tea. It seemed like he didn't care and she once again ate the closed door. Gritting her teeth in anger, she had no choice but to leave.
However, on the second day, the atmosphere in the harem turned eerie.
Imperial Concubine Rong hanged herself, and Yu Gui committed suicide by cutting off his wrist. The two of them died in their respective chambers.
