"Empress, that Imperial Concubine Yi's personal maid, Qiu Xiang, has always been as timid as a mouse. I don't know who gave that pearl the guts this time, but she actually ignored me and didn't answer my question. She even put on a very arrogant expression, and that pearl even said that she didn't recognize me!" Qiu Xiang said angrily.

"Bastard!" I've already taken care of Yi Fei. After today, there would be one less imperial concubine in the harem. In the future, there would be no such person as Yi Fei. I did not expect a mere female attendant of Yi Feifei to be so arrogant. I will definitely help you vent my anger when I find a chance to summon that pearl over next time. " A trace of dissatisfaction also appeared on Shangguan Bian Xue's face.

Esteemed Empress, I'm not worried about that right now." Qiuxiang felt that something was amiss when she saw Pearl's arrogant appearance. That pearl was usually as timid as a mouse. She didn't know why she had such big guts today, but she guessed that there must be some unspeakable secrets. "AHH!" Empress, do you think that Imperial Concubine Yuwen has discovered our clues? " Qiu Xiang could not help but be startled when she thought of this.

"Oh!" Qiuxiang, is there any more reliable evidence for your words? We need to be wary of that imperial concubine Yuwen, but don't be too afraid of her. After all, I am only the master of this palace. I do not believe that this newly entered Imperial Concubine Yuwen will cause any big ruckus. " Queen Shangguan Guangxue said.

"Empress, I saw Pearl happily walk over from the direction of the Parasol Tree Palace where Imperial Concubine Yuwen resided. Afterwards, I went to find out that Pearl had indeed come out from the Parasol Tree Palace where Imperial Concubine Yuwen resided. After Pearl came out, it was as if she had changed into a different person as she happily walked over.

Empress Dowager, you also know that the imperial kitchens are the way to the royal palace where the empress dowager lives. I suspect that Pearl received an order from imperial concubine Yuwen to go to the empress dowager's palace. It was already afternoon. If there wasn't something special, why would she go to the empress dowager's Tzu Ning Palace? Furthermore, it was Pearl who went.

I heard that imperial concubine Yuwen was still staying in the Wutong Palace and hadn't come out. However, imperial concubine Yuwen's personal maid, Xue Mei, had also hurried out just now. Autumn Fragrance was also a small collocation of the plots and conspiracies of the empress, Shangguan Congxue. After calming down, he hadn't thought that he would still be able to think of so many things.

"Oh!" Such a thing actually happened. It seemed that there was going to be some movement from Yuwen Imperial Concubine's side. At this time, she was still staying in his wutong palace and Pearl and Imperial Concubine Yuwen's personal maid, Xue Mei, had left. Qiu Xiang, hurry and send more people over. Let's see where the emperor is right now! This imperial concubine Yuwen is too crafty! " The empress Shangguan Canxue seemed to have thought of some key point among them, thus he seemed to be a little panicked as he spoke.

"Esteemed empress, did you think of something?" How is Imperial Concubine Yuwen so sly? " Qiu Xiang was still not as shrewd as Empress Shangguan Canxue, so he didn't think of the key point at the moment.

"Qiuxiang, do you still remember the time when imperial concubine Yuwen blocked a sword strike for the emperor? Ever since that incident, the emperor's feelings towards imperial concubine Yuwen had rapidly increased. Soon, he had bestowed the title of imperial concubine to Yuwen Yanran. Although the bestowing of this title was a bit quick, it still played a great role. Sometimes the Emperor is a person who values feelings, but sometimes he is also a cold-blooded person. " Shangguan Canxue said.

"Esteemed empress, Qiu Xiang knows about this." But what does this have to do with this? "Qiu Xiang, how could you understand? May the empress enlighten me." Qiu Xiang asked doubtfully.

"Qiuxiang, I see that you were really angered by that stupid pearl today. Where are your old daemons? He couldn't even tell such a simple thing. That Yuwen Imperial Concubine very likely wanted to lure the Emperor into her own wutong palace. "Don't talk too much. Send someone to check out the emperor's location first, and I'll know if my guess is correct." Queen Shangguan said.

"Yes, esteemed empress. Qiu Xiang will do it right away!" Qiu Xiang didn't dare say anything else when she heard the empress Shangguan Que Xue's words and turned to leave right away.

"Imperial Consort Yuwen, if you dare to continue fighting with me like this, then don't blame me for being ruthless. "Now it's Yi Fei. You'll be next very soon." The more she thought about it, the more she felt that imperial concubine Yuwen was strange. She guessed that imperial concubine Yuwen definitely hadn't done anything good, and was most likely here to ruin her plans.

There was no longer any calmness left in Shangguan Bian Xue's heart as he thought of this. He stood up and paced back and forth in his bedroom. In a short while, Qiu Xiang returned amidst the anxious waiting of the empress Shangguan Congxue.

"How is it? "Speak!" A trace of a bad thought emerged in Shangguan Canxue's mind when he saw Xue Mei's nervous face after she returned. Had something really happened?

"Esteemed empress, something terrible has happened. The Emperor is no longer in the imperial study. I heard that he was in a hurry to move over to the Parasol Tree Palace where Imperial Consort Yuwen is. " Although Qiu Xiang didn't quite understand the meaning behind the empress Shangguan Canxue just now, she also knew that things had started to become disadvantageous for the empress's side.

"Humph!" "Hua!" After the empress heard Xue Mei's words, she felt very angry. She rolled up her sleeves and took the teacup from the table to the ground.

"Empress, are you alright?" Qiu Xiang was also startled by the angry look on the empress Shangguan Congxue's face. He quickly tidied up the broken teacups on the ground.

"I'm fine!" Although the emperor was very angry, it was not too late and there was still room for redress. Shangguan Bian Xue thought for a while, then sat back down and started to think about how to remedy the situation.

"Qiuxiang, the information you've just gathered shows that my guess is correct. As expected, Imperial Concubine Yuwen used the same pathetic trick she used before to lure the Emperor to the Parasol Tree Palace. I never thought that at this time, when I thought the situation had been set, such an unexpected turn of events would occur! Sigh! I have underestimated that Yuwen Yanran. "

Shangguan Tianxue was indeed a rather shrewd person, but shrewd people would usually make an arrogant mistake. It was obvious that Shangguan Canxue didn't expect Yuwen Yanran to give him a yellow sparrow at this last moment. He believed that from now on, Shangguan Canxue would be even more careful and wary of Yuwen Yanran.

"Esteemed Empress, even if imperial concubine Yuwen led the emperor to the Wutong Palace, it wouldn't be a big deal. We did things so secretly, how could Imperial Concubine Yuwen know that we did it! " Qiuxiang saw the unsightly expression on Shangguan Canxue's face, but she didn't quite understand what he meant.

"Qiuxiang, you've really turned into a silly girl today. Go to the imperial kitchens to stew some pig brain soup tonight. The imperial concubine of Yuwen had just entered the palace. Although his uncle was General Yuwen, who was guarding the border, this place was the palace. No matter how famous General Yuwen was, it was too late. Therefore, once Imperial Concubine Yuwen made a move, she wouldn't have enough people to do it. However, she was afraid of being suspected by others. Since Imperial Concubine Yuwen's target was quite large, she sent over the people she could use.

If imperial concubine Yuwen had sent his personal maid, Xue Mei, to the empress dowager's Tzu Ning Palace, it was very likely that I would have already received the news and discovered the scheme of imperial concubine Yuwen. Therefore, she sent a palace maid who didn't have much to do with her to the empress dowager. I previously heard that because Yuwen Yanran looks very similar to Dongfang Ziqing, Yuwen Yanran obtained the favor of the empress dowager and gave her her last medallion! Humph!

For Yuwen Yanran to do such a thing, it seemed like she knew that he had not been in the palace for long and it was impossible for the emperor to trust her too much. Thus, she sent someone of no importance to carry out a rather important task. Our group was completely bewitched by Yuwen Yanran.
