Chapter 186 Meeting the Concubine
A playful smile flashed across Su Sui'an's face, and he gently leaned over to whisper into Su Xinhe's ear.
"Do you know that you and the people in your house are now quietly planning a way out for yourselves?"
There was a cold light full of malice in Su Sui'an's eyes.
The warm breath sprayed on Su Xinhe's earlobe, and Su Xinhe felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
This was the first time that Su Xinhe intuitively felt the horror of Su Sui'an.
She wanted to escape.
But Su Sui'an didn't give her a chance to escape and continued, "The Third Prince is dead, and Concubine Xian is in trouble. Your father must be so busy lately that he can't even take care of you."
"If... if I'm not mistaken, your father made a wrong bet. It's harder to get out of this situation now than to ascend to heaven, not to mention that your family is still harboring the remnants of the previous dynasty..."
The words "remnants of the previous dynasty" came out of Su Sui'an's mouth.
Su Xinhe, who already felt as if he was falling into an ice cellar, shuddered uncontrollably.
"What do you want to say? Su Sui'an, I warn you, don't think you can scare me and change the subject by saying a few ambiguous words. I'm not afraid of anything now. At worst, everyone in the mansion will die together. Your father was raised by the old Marquis of Changping. Do you think you can stay out of it?"
She tried hard to steady her voice, but her panic had already betrayed her.
No matter how ignorant and stupid she was, she understood how bad the current emperor's attitude was towards the remnants of the previous dynasty.
Just harboring suspected remnants of the previous dynasty is enough to get the whole family executed...
Su Sui'an chuckled, bringing Su Xinhe's thoughts back from their wandering state.
Only then did Su Xinhe realize that the feeling of oppression in his chest had disappeared.
Su Sui'an didn't know when he loosened his foot from her body.
Not only that, she also took a few steps back to show her that she was dressed in men's clothes.
He watched coldly as she got up from the ground in a panic.
"Why do you think I'm going out now? Of course, it's to find a glimmer of hope for my father."
"To put it bluntly, if something really goes wrong, based on Su Qishun's personality, who do you think will be pushed out to take the blame?"
One word awakens the dreamer.
Su Sui'an's voice and tone were the same as before.
However, Su Xinhe's mentality changed because of what Su Sui'an had just said.
Combined with Su Qishun's recent busyness and the attitude of the servants in Changping Marquis's Mansion towards him...
Su Xinhe just felt creepy.
A man who can marry his concubine's daughter to a concubine's son who can recognize his ancestry and return to the family tree for the sake of so-called reputation...
What kind of feelings can you have for a concubine's daughter?
In order to stop the so-called rumors, my father married Su Xinlian off even though he knew that Su Xinlian was being plotted against.
Then he can certainly do something with the so-called "remnants" matter.
It is also very likely that in order to increase the so-called "credibility", a large number of irrelevant people were bribed to substantiate the charge.
And the person who will be pushed out to take the blame in the end will most likely be her - putting aside the fact that Zhao Qingwan is Su Qishun's adopted daughter, Su Jincheng is so bewitched by Zhao Qingwan that he would definitely not let anything happen to her.
Su Xinlian was just sent back by the Liang family not long ago. After all, she had some intricate relationship with the Liang family and the Yong'an Earl's Mansion. If she was really involved in the serious crime of exterminating nine generations of the family, the Liang family and the Yong'an Earl's Mansion would definitely not ignore her.
So, in the end, she was the one who jumped the most, but in the end, she was the one who died the fastest because there was no one behind her...
Thinking of this, Su Xinhe's intention to inform on the person, which had just arisen in his mind, was suppressed in an instant.
Su Sui'an saw that the goal had been achieved.
He just sneered, "You're a brainless thing," and turned around and prepared to leave, intentionally or unintentionally, but his movement was extremely slow.
This was the first time in his life that Su Xinhe did not refute when being scolded by Su Sui'an.
She always thought she was clever enough to manipulate the people around her with just a few tricks.
In the end, she was the one who was fooled...
I accidentally saw Su Sui'an was about to turn around and leave.
Su Xinhe called out to Su Sui'an, "Wait a moment."
At this moment, after Su Sui'an's alarmist remarks, she had already forgotten the purpose of her visit.
Seeing Su Sui'an stopped, she didn't bother to cover her chest which was painful from Su Sui'an's kick, and trotted all the way to Su Sui'an.
"Help me, I can be your insider in Changping Marquis Mansion."
Her voice no longer had the affectation that she had always tried to convey.
The look he gave Su Sui'an was no longer evasive like before.
Su Sui'an didn't want to waste too much time with Su Xinhe, so he just said casually, "Then...it depends on your performance."
Su Xin, Mu Song and Su Sui'an left and disappeared into the darkness.
Slowly and forcefully clench your hands together.
...
Willow shoots on the moon.
With the experience of being a low-ranking maid in the imperial palace in her previous life, Su Sui'an quickly knocked out a maid who was responsible for doing odd jobs, hid all the way, and soon found the residence of Concubine Xian in the cold palace.
The sixth prince Murong Min fell into a coma due to convulsions and a high fever the day after Concubine Xian was "caught cheating".
Because Emperor Mingqing was furious, he did not allow the imperial physician to treat the patient. In addition, apart from the incident involving Concubine Xian, almost all the loyal servants around Concubine Xian were executed the day after the palace banquet.
So, Murong Min didn't make it in the end.
Murong Min was all Concubine Xian’s hope in the deep palace. When Murong Min died, it seemed as if all her fighting spirit had been drained away from her.
No more fighting for everything like before.
In the cold palace, besides the virtuous concubine, there are many who were sent here because they were framed for having a miscarriage, and some who were implicated because their mother's family had committed a crime...
Most of the abandoned concubines in the cold palace have been stripped of their titles and have suffered a series of blows, so the mental state of many of them is very abnormal.
Among the crowd of disheveled women who were looking in the mirror, putting on makeup, or hugging a small torn quilt as a doll and whose actual appearance could not be seen clearly, although Concubine Xian had disheveled hair, looked dispirited, and her clothes were dirty, her behavior and demeanor were extremely close to those of a normal person.
That normal appearance seemed particularly out of place among the concubines who behaved abnormally.
So Su Sui'an recognized Concubine Xian at a glance.
The virtuous concubine's distracted gaze was still darting around, and when she raised her eyes she met Su Sui'an's half-smile.
She shuddered, and then burst into intense hatred.
Su Sui'an's thoughts were confirmed - she really knew her.
only...
Su Sui'an was really curious about where the hatred of Concubine Xian for her came from...
Just as she was about to walk up to her, Concubine Xian seemed to have expected this and stood up and walked in another direction.
The meaning is obvious.
Su Sui'an hesitated for only a moment before following Concubine Xian's steps.
The two finally got together in a dilapidated house with a big hole in the roof and a door panel hanging on the door frame and creaking.
"I know what you want to ask, but I want to leave the palace. If you can help me do it, I will tell you everything I know."
To Su Sui'an's surprise, before she even started asking, Concubine Xian told her all her bottom lines...
This made Su Sui'an a little hesitant.
"you..."
"I know what you are doubting," Concubine Xian interrupted Su Sui'an again before he could speak, "But do you think it is necessary for me to fight for it now?"
When she said the latter part, Concubine Xian's eyes instantly turned red.
It seemed as if he didn't want Su Sui'an to see his vulnerability.
She turned around and looked up for a while before turning back to face Su Sui'an.
"Just give me one definite answer, can I leave the palace?"
The desire to leave the palace is so strong...
But strictly speaking, this was only her first formal meeting with Concubine Xian.
What exactly caused her to suddenly change her personality?
不 ...
No, she didn't even tell Liu'er about her coming to the palace. Why was Concubine Xian so sure? Why did she only feel hatred for her but not the slightest bit of surprise when she saw her?
Su Sui'an frowned slightly, with a vague guess in his mind.
"Why do you want me to promise you something? But what did someone promise you?"
Is there any benefit in this world that comes without reason?
There must be someone secretly helping you take care of it.
And the guy who arranged it...
Su Sui'an inexplicably thought of Fu Jingrong.
