There are always sick girls with ill intentions towards me

Chapter 267 Is it possible that the Queen and the Prince are having an affair?
dusk.

Not long after Yun Yourong left, Liu Quan knocked on the door of Ningxiang Pavilion.

"Your Majesty, a lady-in-waiting from the palace wants to see you."

From the palace?

Li Lingge rubbed his waist and opened the door: "Who is it?"

Liu Quan kept his head down the whole time.

"She said her last name was Chen."

"Chen Gongling, who is beside the queen." As soon as Li Lingge heard the last name Chen, he knew who it was. "Take me to see her quickly."

Soon, Li Lingge met Chen Duling in the reception room.

"I wonder what Chen Gongling wants to talk to me about?"

When he saw Li Lingge, Chen Duling immediately stood up and stated his purpose.

"The Queen heard that the prince had returned to the capital, so she wanted to invite him to the palace for a chat."

She couldn't help but look at Li Lingge a little longer, secretly amazed in her heart.

Second level realm!
In just three years, Li Lingge advanced from the ninth rank to the second rank. This speed of improvement was truly amazing.

His strength, appearance and family background are all top-notch in the world. Which woman would not be attracted to such a man?

"Now?"

Li Lingge turned his head to look at the sky outside. The palace gate had already been closed.

Chen Duling glanced at Liu Quan out of the corner of her eye and didn't reply immediately.

It would be impossible to summon Li Lingge into the palace through the palace gate at this time.

Moreover, having been with the Queen for so long, and even taking her to Hongxiu Tower, she had long understood the relationship between the Queen and Li Lingge.

However, the fewer people who know about this kind of thing, the better.

Seeing this, Liu Quan immediately tactfully retreated.

Chen Duling took a step forward and lowered his voice a bit.

"Please follow me into the palace now, Your Majesty."

"But what's the matter?"

Seeing Chen Duling so anxious, Li Lingge couldn't help but feel suspicious.

Logically speaking, nothing major should happen in the palace at this moment. It can't be Jiang Yunshu.

"The Queen didn't say anything, she just told the prince to come to the palace tonight."

Hearing this, Li Lingge did not dare to be careless. Although he was in good condition when he met Jiang Yunshu during the day, he still wanted to be on the safe side. Even if nothing happened, it was time to meet the Queen.

"Let's go."

His hand grasped the Seven Star Sword, and the next moment Lingxi's power instantly surged into his body.

In front of Chen Duling, his cultivation level directly reached the first level.

Li Lingge walked up to Chen Duling and put his arms around her waist.

Chen Duling's body stiffened and his voice trembled.

"Your Majesty."

The next moment, the space was torn apart and the two figures disappeared in the hall.

In just a few flashes, the two arrived at the small gate not far from Xihua Gate.

Li Lingge withdrew his hand and explained with a natural expression.

"It's mainly to conceal our tracks. I hope Chen Gongling won't blame me."

Chen Duling waved her hands in panic.

"As it should be, no, I mean that the prince is thoughtful."

At this time, Li Lingge had already walked to the entrance of the small door.

Coincidentally, the gatekeeper was an acquaintance. It was this person who came last time he came - Qin Cao.

Hearing the footsteps, Qin Cao also turned his head and looked over.

When he saw the person in front of him clearly, his little eyes immediately lit up.

Qin Cao opened the door swiftly, then stood at the door and bowed.

"Your Majesty, please come in!"

Chen Duling: (⊙o⊙)
Why does Li Lingge feel like going home when he comes here?

Could it be that, besides the Queen's, he had also been to other people's bedrooms?

Li Lingge nodded with satisfaction, took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and threw it into Qin Cao's hand.

After entering the room, he saw Chen Duling still standing there in a daze, and he waved.

"Chen Gongling, let's go."

"oh oh."

Chen Duling came to his senses and immediately followed.

Looking at the two people's disappearing backs, Qin Cao scratched his head and muttered.

"That Chen Gongling seems to be the queen's personal maid. At this time, she brought the prince into the palace. Could she be going to see the queen?"

"Is the Queen having an affair with the Prince?"

"Hiss! Big melon!"

Ganquan Palace.

Shen Fengyi paced back and forth restlessly in the bedroom. When she thought about meeting Li Lingge soon, she felt a little nervous, but also a little expectant.

The prince has been imprisoned for so long, and His Majesty still has no intention of releasing him.

She really couldn't wait any longer and didn't know what His Majesty was thinking.

If His Majesty really intends to depose the Crown Prince, she must prepare in advance.

Thinking of this, a hint of cruelty flashed in her eyes.

As long as she increases the dosage, she can make Jiang Yunshu die early.

However, this was a matter that had caused a sensation in both the government and the public, so she had to find someone to discuss it with.

Her father seemed to have given up on the prince. Even though the prince had been imprisoned for such a long time, he did not care about him at all and did not even write a letter to the emperor.

Now, the only person she can rely on is Li Lingge.

No matter what, Li Lingge can now be considered the prince's second father.

"The Queen."

Outside the bedroom, the voice of the palace maid was heard.

Hearing the noise, Shen Fengyi thought it was Li Lingge coming, so she spoke immediately.

"Let him in."

However, the person who pushed the door open was not Li Lingge, but someone who surprised her a little.

"Jiang Cairen."

After a slight pause, she immediately changed her words.

"Now, I should call you Concubine Jiang."

Some were happy and some were sad. Her prince was imprisoned by His Majesty, and Jiang Li destroyed Nanyue. With such a great achievement, the mother became honored because of her son, and the talented Jiang who had been neglected for many years was also named a noble concubine today.

I just don’t know what kind of reward Jiang Li will receive after returning to the court.

"Why are you here with me instead of in your own chamber preparing to welcome the Holy Emperor?"

Jiang Feiyan walked into the bedroom and did not directly answer the Queen's question, but asked back.

"The Queen is waiting for someone?"

Shen Fengyi's eyes flickered and she immediately denied it.

"The palace gates are closed. Who can I wait for?"

Hearing this, Jiang Feiyan said meaningfully.

"So he was waiting for someone outside the palace."

She didn't say who she was waiting for, but the Queen Mother subconsciously mentioned that the palace gates were closed.

This means that the person being waited for is not someone in the palace, but someone outside the palace.

Although the palace was heavily guarded, she knew very well that there were ways to enter the palace even late at night, not to mention that it was not yet dark.

"You, what nonsense are you talking about!" Shen Fengyi panicked after her thoughts were exposed, "Slandering me, can you bear this crime?"

Seeing Shen Fengyi lose her composure like this, Jiang Feiyan just found it a little funny.

However, she came here to ask for a favor, so it would be bad to make the atmosphere too awkward.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to be so nervous. I came to see you for other matters. As for who is coming later, it has nothing to do with me."

"what's up?"

Shen Fengyi sat back on the couch with a sense of relief, and waved her hand to dismiss the palace maid at the door.

Jiang Feiyan walked forward and sat down without being asked.

She looked at the queen who was obviously dressed up carefully, and had a vague guess in her mind as to who would come later.

"I came to see the Queen because I wanted something."

Shen Fengyi frowned slightly, but when she saw that the other party wanted to ask her for something, she immediately put on her airs as the queen.

"What do you want?"

"Soul-Eating Rosemary." Jiang Feiyan's voice was very low. "I know the Queen has this thing in her hands."

Shen Fengyi's expression immediately became solemn. She did have this thing in her hand.

But this is top secret, and few people in the entire palace know about it.

Soul-eating rosemary, when lit, can make anyone who smells its fragrance fall into an illusion of extreme beauty and pleasure.

Back then, Concubine Wan was the only one favored by His Majesty, and she had planned to use this thing to win back his heart.

It’s a pity that His Majesty’s soul has been hooked by Concubine Wan and he has never visited her bedroom again.

So, she hid this thing in a corner and let it gather dust.

If Jiang Feiyan hadn't mentioned it, she would have almost forgotten about this thing.

There's no point in denying it. Looking at Jiang Feiyan's determined gaze and her straightforward attitude, it's confirmed that she has this thing in her hand.

"How do you know I have this thing?"

"It doesn't matter how I know." Jiang Feiyan stretched out her hand.

As if she had thought of something, Shen Fengyi's voice suddenly became louder.

"You want to use this thing on His Majesty?!"

She is not a fool. His Majesty will go to Jiang Feiyan's bedroom tonight.

Whether it was just for show or because of Jiang Li's contribution to destroying the country, he looked at Jiang Feiyan differently and really wanted to favor this woman.

For Jiang Feiyan, this is a rare opportunity.

If we can use the soul-eating rosemary to make His Majesty linger in Jiang Feiyan's bedroom from now on, there will probably be no need for Concubine Wan in the future.

In the past, she would have been happy to have someone to fight with Concubine Wan. But now His Majesty's health is getting worse day by day, how can he withstand such a torment.

Soul-eating rosemary is something that consumes your mind.

If Jiang Yunshu were in his prime, smelling this fragrance for a long time might not have a significant effect on him, but for Jiang Yunshu now in his twilight years, it would probably only accelerate his death.

Jiang Feiyan nodded. She came to ask for the Soul-Eating Rosemary at this time. It was easy to guess who she wanted to use it on.

Seeing that she didn't deny it, Shen Fengyi's mouth twitched involuntarily.

Is this woman crazy?

He actually came to her to ask for this kind of thing, and was so confident.

"Do you know that this will cost His Majesty's life?"

If His Majesty died because of the Soul-Eating Rosemary, and if the blame was traced back to her, wouldn't I have died unjustly?

Besides, why does Jiang Feiyan think she will take it out?

"Today I will pretend that you have never been here, otherwise——"

Jiang Feiyan shook her head in disappointment.

"I thought you would give it to me obediently, but I didn't expect you to be so stupid."

"What did you say?"

Shen Fengyi stared at Jiang Feiyan in disbelief, almost doubting her own ears.

This woman just now actually called her stupid?

Jiang Feiyan's pure and kind eyes suddenly turned cold, and then she stared at Shen Fengyi without blinking.

"If Jiang Yunshu dies, then you have the evidence against me. Even if something goes wrong, you can put the blame on me."

She stood up, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

"Aren't you stupid?"

Shen Fengyi shook her head slightly subconsciously.

"Are you crazy?"

"No matter how crazy I am, I can't be as crazy as the Queen who poisoned His Majesty."

Jiang Feiyan's casual words sounded like thunder in Shen Fengyi's ears.

She opened her mouth but couldn't utter a word for a long time.

In just a moment, a huge fear surged into her heart and blocked her throat.

Countless thoughts flashed through her mind quickly, and the first thought was to get rid of Jiang Feiyan.

Although she didn't know how Jiang Feiyan found out about this, she could only feel completely at ease when someone died.

However, so many people watched Jiang Feiyan enter her Ganquan Palace, and His Majesty was going to favor Jiang Feiyan again tonight.

She had just been named a noble concubine, and she died in her palace. This matter will definitely be thoroughly investigated.

She knew the methods of the Overwatch Council. Once she was found guilty, the prince would have no chance of turning things around.

Wait!
Jiang Feiyan may not have direct evidence, this is a scam!

Shen Fengyi's eyes kept flickering, but all she got from him was a disdainful sneer from Jiang Feiyan.

She didn't even give the Queen a chance to respond and continued speaking.

"We are not enemies. I only want the Soul-Eating Rosemary. Everything else has nothing to do with me."

"I have no idea what you're talking about."

After Shen Fengyi came to her senses, she became more curious about Jiang Feiyan, but she immediately denied poisoning her.

Without hard evidence, there is absolutely no way she would admit it.

Jiang Feiyan narrowed her eyes slightly. She didn't have much time to waste with this stupid woman Shen Fengyi.

"My Queen, my time is limited. I only want the Soul Devouring Rosemary."

She stood up and walked to Shen Fengyi's side, leaned over and whispered.

"If you walk by the river often, you will get your feet wet. You poison your majesty's food every month. Do you really think no one will find out?"

Shen Fengyi clenched his fists instantly and his back suddenly tensed up.

This is not just speculation, Jiang Feiyan really knows what she did.

When she thought of this, a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.

"What evidence do you have?!"

"Of course I have evidence, but if I send the evidence directly to His Majesty, do you think the prince still has a chance to turn things around?"

As she spoke, Jiang Feiyan placed a paper bag of medicine powder on the table.

Shen Fengyi's throat rolled, and then she went to pick up the paper bag with a guilty conscience.

However, Jiang Feiyan snatched the paper bag back before her.

As the paper bag slowly opened in Jiang Feiyan's hands, Shen Fengyi's heart was completely relieved.

There was only a little bit of powder inside. She was very familiar with that powder. It was the poison she had given to His Majesty.

Jiang Feiyan rewrapped the powder and put it into her sleeve.

"Be careful next time you poison someone, don't spread it outside."

Shen Fengyi's hands had unconsciously clenched in her sleeves.

"You just took a packet of powder from who knows where and you want to accuse me of poisoning His Majesty?"

The next moment, Jiang Feiyan raised her hand and clamped her cheek.

"Shen Fengyi, don't challenge my patience. If you really want me to put all the evidence in front of you, then it will not be something that Soul Devouring Rosemary can solve."

Shen Fengyi was so frightened by this sudden action that she froze.

She felt a strong murderous intent in Jiang Feiyan's eyes. If she didn't take out the Soul-Eating Rosemary, who knows what the other party might do.

"I, I'll get it for you."

Just as he finished speaking, the bedroom door was suddenly pushed open.

At that moment, Jiang Feiyan immediately took a step back and returned to her usual state.

Before Shen Fengyi could react to what was happening, Li Lingge had already walked in.

His eyes moved back and forth between Jiang Feiyan and Shen Fengyi. Although they were on his side, he still bowed first.

"See the Queen."

"See the Imperial Concubine."

Shen Fengyi's eyelids twitched. Didn't the people outside tell this guy that there was a stranger in his bedroom?

The palace gates had already been closed. Jiang Feiyan knew that she had poisoned the woman, and now she was caught by Jiang Feiyan having a secret meeting with a man outside her family. This time, she really couldn't let this woman leave.

Thinking of this, Shen Fengyi immediately stood up and walked quickly to Li Lingge's side.

"Kill her."

Li Lingge: (ΩДΩ)
What's going on? You want him to kill someone as soon as they meet?
He turned his head and looked at Jiang Feiyan with a little confusion. Jiang Feiyan had a helpless look on her face and just looked at Shen Fengyi with aggrieved eyes.

"Why did the Queen want to kill me?"

The corner of Shen Fengyi's mouth twitched. Jiang Feiyan was such a good actress.

He looked so pitiful, without any trace of murderous intent.

However, after seeing Li Lingge, her heart was at peace.

She hesitated for a moment, but still leaned close to Li Lingge's ear and told him everything that had just happened.

Jiang Feiyan was not at all panicked about this, as she had already guessed that the person coming was Li Lingge.

How could the person who wanted to help her Li'er ascend to the throne kill her?

Looking at Shen Fengyi's tell-tale look, she shook her head and sighed helplessly.

This woman probably still doesn't know that Li Lingge has always wanted to overthrow the prince.

After listening to Shen Fengyi's explanation of the whole story, Li Lingge felt relieved.

Is it necessary to fight to the death over such a small matter?

"You go find Soul-Eating Rosemary first, and I'll persuade her."

Shen Fengyi hesitated for a moment, but finally turned around to get the Soul-Eating Rosemary.

At the same time, Li Lingge walked to Jiang Feiyan's side and whispered.

"What does the Imperial Concubine want with the Soul Devouring Rosemary?"

"Your Highness, you are asking this even though you already know the answer." Jiang Feiyan turned to look at Li Lingge, "This is all I can do to help Li'er in the harem."

"Actually, Your Majesty, there is no need to do this. I will arrange everything."

Jiang Feiyan's appearance at Shen Fengyi's place disrupted his plans.

Originally, there shouldn't be any intersection between these two people.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Feiyan lowered her eyes slightly and her voice became even lower.

"It's not all for Li'er, I just don't want Jiang Yunshu to touch me."

Li Lingge: ???

Jiang Feiyan's reaction seemed like there was something fishy going on.

"Does the Imperial Concubine really have a witness?"

Jiang Feiyan shook her head. She didn't need to hide anything from Li Lingge.

"It's just to scare the Queen."

"That packet of powder?"

"It's just a Qi-boosting powder of the same color. The Queen has never spilled the poison."

Li Lingge raised his hands and silently applauded Jiang Feiyan.

The next moment, Shen Fengyi had already found the Soul-Eating Rosemary.

"Here is the thing. After taking the medicine inside, you will not be affected by the Soul Devouring Rosemary."

A small brocade box was handed to Li Lingge, and Shen Fengyi stared at Jiang Feiyan with vigilance.

However, as she watched, Li Lingge handed the brocade box directly to Jiang Feiyan.

"I hope the Imperial Concubine will keep her promise."

Jiang Feiyan cooperated, took the brocade box, turned around and prepared to leave.

However, Shen Fengyi immediately blocked her way.

"What promise?"

Li Lingge rolled his eyes and then spoke.

"I have planted a demon seed in her body. If she says anything she shouldn't, she will die immediately."

Shen Fengyi stared at Li Lingge and asked: Do you think I'm stupid?
This woman has such a big handle on her, what kind of demon could make her afraid to act rashly?
What if she found someone to unlock the so-called demon seed, how should I deal with it?

"Are you going to let her go just like that?"

Li Lingge asked subconsciously.

"What else do you want, really kill her?"
