Chapter 241 Do you believe me?
When Nie Changyuan was mentioned, Qi Minxiu woke up as if from a dream, and his cloudy eyes instantly became clear.
He turned around, took her hands and put them back on her waist: "You will live in Prince Chen's Mansion from now on. I will find a way to deal with Qi Yue."
Xiao Mo closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and sighed softly: "Do you believe me, Ah Xiu?"
These words made Qi Minxiu's heart tremble. He carefully helped her up and said, "Amo, can you trust me just once?"
"Listen to me, Ah Xiu, I've already succeeded with Concubine Liang. As long as I defeat her, Qi Yue will be defeated soon."
"Do you think I would stand by and watch you fall into the tiger's mouth to avenge your master?
Ah Mo, if you only deal with Concubine Liang, I won't say anything, but I don't want you to get entangled with Qi Yue. "
Qi Minxiu spoke louder and louder, and only stopped talking when he realized that his attitude was not good.
Xiao Mo bit her lip, not knowing how to persuade him for a moment.
He pinched her shoulders, bent down and looked at her at eye level: "Amo, look at me, listen to me
I don't want you to commit yourself to Qi Yue. Come back and I'll find a way to deal with him, okay?"
Xiao Mo broke free from his hands and turned around: "I will find a way to make the emperor dislike Concubine Liang, or even sentence her to death.
So far, the plan seems to be going smoothly, but Qi Yue is doing his job conscientiously, and I haven't found a chance to deal with him yet.
But I believe that as long as his mother suffers, he will reveal his true colors."
Qi Minxiu frowned and walked around to her. "Why did the emperor order the death of Concubine Liang just because of the ghost incident in the harem last night?"
This morning, when Ling Su came to report to him, he thought about whether this matter might be related to Xiao Mo. Unexpectedly, it was really her who did it.
However, she was not a member of the harem and did not know how insignificant this matter was to the concubines in the harem.
"Amo, you are not suitable for the harem. Your thinking logic is the same as that of the battlefield.
For the women in the harem, it's just like playing house. You'll never get revenge with these tricks."
Xiao Mo originally wanted to tell him in detail about her plan and next steps.
But considering that he would think of Qi Yue everywhere, he swallowed back the words that were about to come out.
"Ash, if you trust me, then cooperate with me, because I have other goals besides revenge."
She took out a prescription from her bosom and put it on the table: "This is the prescription that can cure your cough."
Qi Minxiu looked at her with complicated eyes: "Does it have to be this way?"
"Don't stop me. At the moment, this is the most direct, effective, and most likely to succeed method."
Xiao Mo put the things down and patted his shoulder: "If you ruin my plan without considering the consequences, I will really fight Qi Yue."
After giving the warning, she opened the door and walked out under Ling Su's shocked gaze.
Qi Minxiu stood there in silence for a long time, his hands hanging by his side tightening and loosening, loosening and tightening again.
It wasn't until Ling Su came in cautiously to check on him that he calmed down.
"Pack up and go to the palace to see the emperor."
Although Ling Su didn't know why he went to the palace to see the emperor at this time, he still went to prepare.
In the palace, as soon as he left, the emperor immediately summoned Qi Yue and Xiao Mo.
"Just now, Min'er came to tell me that he is willing to cancel the engagement with you." The emperor looked at Xiao Mo, but his smile did not reach his eyes.
The first person to get excited upon hearing the news was Qi Yue.
"Really? Father, A-Mo, we can finally be together openly!"
He looked at Xiao Mo with shining eyes. If there was no one else around, he would have kissed her face till it was broken.
The emperor's sharp eyes swept across her: "Xiao Mo, marriage is not a joke. You've already broken off an engagement once. If you break off an engagement again this time, I will chop off your head."
He raised the corners of his mouth with a smile that was six parts serious and four parts joking, but the smile was chilling.
Xiao Mo knelt and kowtowed, then looked at Qi Yue affectionately: "Your Majesty, don't worry. This time, I will not regret it again."
The emperor closed his eyes and sighed, and gave orders to solve a big problem.
"Please step back. I will draft the imperial decree granting the marriage later."
Xiao Mo and Qi Yue looked at each other, and when they turned to leave, they met the eunuch who came in to report.
"Your Majesty, Princess Zhaoning requests an audience."
"Invite her in."
After returning to Yilan Palace, Xiao Mo stopped Qi Yue outside the house, using the excuse that she felt dizzy and wanted to rest for a while.
Qi Yue was so happy that Qi Minxiu agreed to cancel the engagement. He just wanted to go to Yongyang Palace, so he didn't ask any questions.
After he left, Xiao Mo called Chun'er, who had returned to the palace earlier than her: "How's the situation at the Ministry of Justice? Did Cailian vomit anything?"
"I was just about to report this matter!" Chun'er lowered her voice and leaned close to Xiao Mo's ear with a serious face.
After hearing this, Xiao Mo frowned and stood up suddenly: "What? Dead? Didn't the emperor investigate? She would have died if she was tried! Doesn't the emperor find it strange?"
Chun Er calmed her down and said, "Don't worry, Miss, this must have been done by Concubine Liang.
In fact, Cai Lian's death is not a bad thing for us. This will only make the emperor more suspicious of Concubine Liang."
"What's the point of just suspecting it? There's no direct evidence."
"Miss, you are wrong. Other people's suspicions may not have any effect, but the emperor's suspicions are different.
We just need to help open the wound and stuff something deadly into it, and she will die for sure."
Xiao Mo listened carefully to Chun'er's analysis, and a hint of appreciation gradually emerged in her eyes as she looked at her.
As expected of someone who follows a concubine in the palace, her thinking is different.
No wonder, when she and Qi Yue went to see the emperor just now, they found that he didn't look very good.
I think it’s probably because of this incident.
She nodded, and the anxiety in her eyes eased a little: "Where's Shen Yun?"
"Sister Yun is out." Chun'er replied immediately.
"Go out, where are you going?" Xiao Mo frowned and wondered who Shen Yun knew in this palace.
But just as he was absorbed in this thought, a man as happy as a rabbit jumped in from the door.
"Miss, I'm back."
"Where have you been?"
Shen Yun pursed her lips and smiled shyly. She walked to the table and poured a sip of tea. "I went to see Ah Chuan. He's on vacation today."
Speaking of Xu Renchuan, the severity in Xiao Mo's eyes disappeared instantly, replaced by endless shame.
"Yun, I'm sorry. Ever since you and I entered the Eastern Palace, even your relationship with Xu Renchuan has been delayed."
Shen Yun lowered her eyes, smiled and shook her head: "The young lady's matter is the most important thing. I won't feel at ease even if I am with him until your matter is resolved."
Xiao Mo was very touched by her loyalty, but the more she felt this way, the more she felt she owed her.
