The Poisonous Empress of a Noble Family: After Rebirth, I Took Revenge on My Entire Family
Chapter 156: For a woman like her, don’t even think about being the concubine.
The matter involved Shi Heng's reputation, so Emperor Chongming told everyone present early that they must keep silent about the cause of Hai Shengxiang's death and not let rumors spread all over the imperial capital.
This gives Nanxian a lot of room to play.
She only said "maybe", "maybe", "maybe" but not certain.
But Nan Shiqing was already confused, "That's nonsense. Dad has no intention of treason, let alone implicate His Highness the Seventh Prince."
"Who can say it well? The prince also knows what kind of character our majesty is. The emperor is suspicious. They say that accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. This saying does not come out of thin air."
Nanxian spoke softly, with cold eyes.
Nan Shiqing was extremely panicked. As Nan Xian said, Emperor Chongming was becoming more and more suspicious.
He quickly left Qingping Pavilion in Nanxian.
However, after Nan Shiqing inquired around outside, he had no idea why Hai Shengxiang died, and instead became more and more confused.
After all, the people present at that time were all noble family members, so it was impossible for him to rush into the back house of a first-class official and ask the ladies.
As for Madam Hou and Nan Xueer, there is no need to think about it. In recent days, because of Nan Xueer's shameful behavior and the accusation of treason in the Yongding Houtan, the Yongding Houfu is like a rat crossing the street in the imperial capital. People avoid it.
Even if Madam Hou and Nan Xueer wanted to join the aristocratic circle, no one would talk to them.
As a result, Mrs. Hou and Lan Xueer gradually became blind and deaf, and they were unaware of anything happening in the imperial capital.
Nan Shiqing had no choice. He knew it was definitely not a trivial matter, so he hurried to the seventh prince's house.
Shi Heng had already received the news. He asked Nan Shiqing, "Can't you find out? Why can't you find out?"
"Hai Shengxiang only entered the palace once, and he didn't go to some place like a dragon's pond or a tiger's den. No one ever talked about what happened to him in the palace."
Shi Heng felt that something was a little unusual. He had informants in the palace, but each of those informants seemed to have lost their voices and did not dare to tell the cause of Hai Shengxiang's death outside the palace.
Even Concubine Jing didn't send anyone to say a word.
Nan Shiqing stepped forward and asked, "Your Highness, is there any other way to know the cause of Hai Shengxiang's death?"
Shi Heng's eyes were heavy, "Now there is another way. I go into the harem to visit my mother and concubine, and I can learn a thing or two about the matter from my mother and concubine."
The death of a slave was not a big deal to Shi Shenting.
But Hai Shengxiang looked like a brand when he walked outside. Everyone in the world knew that he was the seventh prince's personal servant.
On the surface it looked like the emperor had killed an eunuch with a cane, but in fact this would send a signal to everyone that Emperor Chongming no longer favored Shi Heng.Shi Heng desperately wanted to find out Emperor Chongming's attitude from the cause of Hai Shengxiang's death, and then he could figure out how to regain Emperor Chongming's favor.
That day he hurriedly entered the palace and came to the concubine Jing's palace.
Concubine Jing hurriedly came out of the inner hall with a worried look on her face.
"My ancestor, why are you coming to the palace to join in the fun at this time?"
Shi Heng bowed to Concubine Jing and said, "Concubine, I am here to inquire about Hai Shengxiang."
"When would you like to inquire? You must ask at this juncture. Don't you know that your father is very angry?"
Concubine Jing was impatient, and Emperor Chongming did not let the news leak out because he was protecting Shi Heng to prevent his reputation from getting worse.
However, Shi Heng asked around and even made a special trip to the palace for this purpose. It was at this time that he focused everyone's attention on the cause of Hai Shengxiang's death.
"It's just a eunuch who died. If he dies, he will die. How important is your father's favor? Don't you know how many pairs of eyes are staring at our mother and son, both inside and outside the palace?"
Concubine Jing complained about Shi Heng's ignorance and looked at Shi Heng distressedly.
"Your father wants to downplay this matter, so it would be best for you."
Shi Heng's heart sank. He was just worried that he would be implicated in Yong Dinghou's conspiracy.
In the end, it was just because Hai Shengxiang didn't convey it well enough that Nan Xian misunderstood that Shi Heng was going to be lucky to her.
It seemed like it was nothing serious, and Shi Heng gradually relaxed.
"Look at how thin you are now. It's all because these slaves didn't take good care of you."
Concubine Jing didn't feel sorry for Hai Shengxiang's death at all. She was in the palace, but she didn't receive news from outside the palace in a timely manner. Sometimes, it took more than half a month for the incident to happen before the palace could hear a little gossip. information.
For a beloved concubine like her without any family background, Concubine Jing's ability to reach this day was all due to her own scheming skills and her ability to snare high-ranking officials in the court.
But even so, Jing Fei still has many inconveniences.
For example, it was not until Hai Shengxiang's death that Concubine Jing learned of the turmoil between her son Shi Heng and Nan Xue'er outside the palace.
Concubine Jing couldn't help but angrily scolded, "This Hai Shengxiang's death is really not a pity, and that Nan Xue'er, since you two have become such a situation, you should bring Nan Xue'er into your seventh prince's house early, and also Don’t let others gossip about you.”
"For a woman like her, don't think about the position of concubine. Just give her the position of concubine."
