RPAGF Chapter 265 Chess Pieces
Chapter 265 Chess Pieces
Didn’t Sister Qin say that this eunuch is tight-lipped and can definitely be relied upon?
And... she didn't ask the eunuch to prepare arsenic.
She just wanted him to get some mild poison.
She didn't want to kill Xiaolian.
"not like this……"
"I didn't... I didn't want Xiaolian to die..."
Zhou Lingge said coldly, his eyes filled with hostility: "There is evidence from witnesses and evidence, the evidence is irrefutable...yet Concubine Sun is still full of lies. She is truly stubborn and unrepentant."
"How dare you slander me... This is truly a heinous crime. Someone, drag him away... and torture him. If he refuses to confess, he will be beaten to death..."
"If she confesses, I will banish her to the cold palace, and I can still spare her life."
Fuquan responded, his eyes slightly cold, and ordered someone to drag Sun Changzai away.
Concubine Sun's face was filled with fear. She struggled to break free from the men's grasp and shouted hysterically, "Your Highness...I...I know I was wrong. Please give me a chance."
"I confessed, I confessed everything... I wanted to use Xiaolian to take revenge on the Imperial Concubine..."
Zhou Lingge waved her hand and the palace maid let go of Concubine Sun.
Sun Changzai lay on the ground, crying heart-wrenchingly.
"I couldn't bear the humiliation I felt, so I tried to frame the Imperial Concubine."
"Your Majesty, I overestimated my own abilities... I was wrong. I shouldn't have used such methods to oppose the Imperial Concubine."
She regrets it now, so much so that her intestines are turning green.
Life was good, but she got so angry that she had to commit suicide.
Originally, none of this had anything to do with her, so how could she have lost her mind and gotten involved?
Sun Changzai cried heart-wrenchingly and was filled with remorse.
Some of the concubines around were soft-hearted and they prostrated themselves and pleaded for Concubine Sun.
Zhou Lingge's eyes flickered as she looked at the concubines and palace maids who were kneeling on the ground.
"Remember this, everyone. I'm not afraid of being told that I'm some vicious, murderous, demonic concubine. I won't tolerate anyone who offends me... But if you behave yourself and don't stir up trouble, I'm not afraid to coexist peacefully with you."
"Today, for your sake, I will give Concubine Sun a chance to live. I hope she can cherish this opportunity..."
Everyone's impression of the imperial concubine improved a little.
The Imperial Concubine actually spared Sun Changyi's life, which was beyond everyone's expectation. It seems that the Imperial Concubine is not as cold-blooded and ruthless as the rumors say.
Sun Changzai had one foot in the grave and was almost scared to death.
Fortunately, the imperial concubine didn't take her life in the end. She thanked her profusely... and was dragged away crying.
Yongning Palace.
Qin Keqing sat in front of the bronze mirror, raising her hand to touch her red and swollen cheeks.
Her eyes were filled with annoyance.
She bit her lip, trying her best to suppress the anger in her heart.
"Someone is coming."
The maidservant Yuan Qing respectfully stepped into the inner hall and knelt before her: "My lady."
Qin Keqing stood up from the bronze mirror, looked at Yuan Qing and asked, "What's the situation with Sun Changzai over there now?"
Yuan Qing's eyes were filled with uneasiness. She slowly shook her head, "This servant has just heard the news and was about to report it to the young lady. The matter of Concubine Sun has not attracted the attention of His Majesty and the Queen Mother. This matter is entirely under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Concubine."
Qin Keqing frowned, her eyes full of hostility.
"Your Majesty has truly been bewitched by the Imperial Concubine."
"He went on a killing spree in the imperial court for the Imperial Concubine, and now he's handing over the harem to the Imperial Concubine? Things are gradually going off the track. What's going on..."
She felt a little nervous.
All of this goes against the original trajectory.
The plot in the book is clearly not like this.
Why are the things that happened here different from what is written in the novel after she came here?
Qin Keqing could no longer sit still.
A fierce light flashed in her eyes: "How was Sun Changzai dealt with?"
Yuan Qing replied word by word, "The Imperial Concubine spared her life and banished her to the cold palace."
Qin Keqing pursed her lips, with a hint of coldness in her eyes.
"Let's go to the cold palace."
"Sun Chang is still useful as a chess piece here. This matter cannot end like this..."
She changed into a black dress and put on a hood.
He took Yuan Qing away from Yongning Palace and headed to the cold palace.
In the deepest part of the cold palace, Sun Changzai huddled at the head of the bed, her eyes almost swollen from crying, and she looked extremely pitiful.
She was still terrified that she almost died.
Her mind was completely confused now, and she couldn't imagine how she had ended up in such a situation step by step.
Suddenly, the dilapidated palace door was pushed open from the outside.
Concubine Sun's body trembled, and she looked towards the palace door in fear: "Who?"
Qin Keqing stepped in, holding a food box in her hand.
She walked in and slowly took off the hood on her head.
Her eyes were filled with guilt, and she looked at Sun Changzai with red eyes: "Sister Sun, it's me."
"It's all my fault. I got you into trouble. Are you okay now?"
Sun Changzai's eyes were full of surprise. She didn't expect Qin Keqing to come to see her.
She couldn't help but feel a bit resentful. "Didn't you say that the eunuch was very reliable because he kept his mouth shut? The imperial concubine's people used a little torture on him, and he couldn't bear it and confessed everything."
"The most abominable thing is that I clearly told him to find some mild poison, but he got arsenic instead. Xiaolian has been with me for many years, and I have feelings for her. How could I possibly want to poison her to death? It's all that little eunuch's fault. He messed everything up."
Qin Keqing looked at Sun Changzai in astonishment, and her face turned pale.
"Mrs. Sun...how could you blame all this on me? You said you didn't have many confidants and didn't know who to call on for many things. I felt sorry for you, so I kindly let the young eunuch serve you. How could I have known that you weren't protecting yourself, but were trying to harm others?"
"Before I came here, I thought your case might be a misunderstanding, someone had framed you. Now it seems that you really directed and acted out all this yourself? Sun Changzai, how could you be so confused?"
Sun Changzai was suddenly speechless.
She lowered her head somewhat dejectedly.
She really couldn't blame Qin Keqing for anything wrong, as Qin Keqing knew nothing about what she had done.
She was so angry that she lost her mind and rationality, so she did something stupid.
"I don't know what happened to me. Ever since I was slapped by the Imperial Concubine, I couldn't control my emotions when I returned to the palace. I wanted to do something crazy to get revenge on the Imperial Concubine."
"Now, I have fallen into this situation, and it is all my own fault."
A hint of darkness flashed in Qin Keqing's eyes.
How stupid! Such a stupid person deserves to die.
From the very beginning, Sun Changzai was a chess piece placed by himself.
It was she who arranged for the palace servants to put some drugs that cause irritability and mood disorders in the tea that Concubine Sun drank.
Xiaolian was also bribed by her. She only spent five hundred taels of silver to buy a worthless life to serve her.
