The news that Yin Ji entered the palace to meet Emperor Changde soon reached the Empress' ears. When the Empress heard that Jiang Jinyue was still alive, she was shocked, "That bitch is still alive?"
Before anyone could answer, the Empress denied it, "Impossible. I saw her drinking the poisoned wine with my own eyes. It was extremely poisonous, as long as she drank it, she would definitely die. There is absolutely no possibility for her to survive."
Qiu Xi said: "Your Majesty, this is indeed the news that the servant got from over there, but the servant thinks that it should be a similar person. Jiang Jinyue is dumb, and her hand is broken, how did she become a huakui?"
The Empress got up and walked around the room a few times, "Qiu Xi, the fire in Fangyue palace before was so coincidental, did that bitch Jiang Jinyue really not die?"
Qiu Xi didn't know either, she just wondered, "But who in the palace would save her?" Jiang Jinyue didn't have a good friend in the palace.
"Yes, who could it be?" The Empress said, then she looked at Qiu Xi suddenly, "Go, invite the crown prince here, I have something to say to him."
After the second prince's rebellion, the crown prince was naturally released from the ban, and the Empress regained the power in the harem. The mother and son lived a happy life like the second prince before, and they were very satisfied.
The mother and son's biggest expectation now was that Emperor Changde would die soon so that the crown prince could ascend the throne.
The Empress thought about choosing an imperial concubine for the crown prince again. After what happened last time, she also learned to be smart. She planned to choose only one imperial concubine, as for the other concubines would be selected after the crown prince ascended the throne. At that time, the crown prince could choose any woman he wanted.
Moreover, at that time the two girls of the Wei family had also grown up, as long as Wei Yunzhao and Jiang Lin die, and the two unguarded little girls entered the harem, a place where people cannibalized, there was no need for her to do anything, because someone would take care of them.
The Empress was still thinking about destroying the two sisters Wei Yunjia and Wei Yunwan. Although Jiang Jinyue's plan failed, the Empress was satisfied with this vicious idea.
"The child has seen mother, what's the matter with the mother calling the child?"
The crown prince entered the door, and the voice of greeting interrupted Empress' contemplation. The Empress asked the crown prince to sit down with a serious expression, "The crown prince, mother asks you, have you ever saved that bitch Jiang Jinyue?"
Hearing what his mother said, the crown prince was not very happy, "Why did mother suddenly mention her?, it's bad luck," the crown prince said with disgust.
The Empress told the Crown Prince what she had heard from Emperor Changde's place, and the Crown Prince frowned after hearing this, "This woman is really a disaster, she didn't die even though she was poisoned like that. Mother should have beheaded her right away, and this kind of thing would never happen."
The Empress also regretted it. She should have given Jiang Jinyue a dagger, so that Jiang Jinyue would die completely, and wouldn't come out to be a demon again like now.
However, the crown prince's attitude surprised the Empress. She remembered that the crown prince liked Jiang Jinyue, so the Empress asked her doubts.
The crown prince snorted disdainfully, "Mother, this woman is a broom star. At first, I thought she was pretty good, but later I found out that if I got involved with her, everything would go wrong. I don't want to have anything to do with this broom star at all."
[扫帚星 sào zhǒu xīng: broom star,
this originates from Han dynasty folklore, which believed the comet's main responsibility was to literally sweep things from the sky. This would mean serious consequences on earth, such as war or natural disasters, and as a result, comets became omens of bad fortune.]
The crown prince wondered what his mother meant, "Mother, you don't think it was your child who secretly rescued her, did you?"
The Empress said: "Indeed mother has thought about this possibility, but after hearing what you said, mother is relieved."
"But, if it's not you, so who could it be?" the Empress asked in puzzlement.
"Whoever that person is, Jiang Jinyue has been caught, and she will be interrogated by Yin Ji. Mother, we'd better not mess with this broom star, so as not to be unlucky again."
The Empress didn't want to mess with her, but if that huakui was really Jiang Jinyue, the other party would definitely seek revenge from her.
"No, we can't sit still and wait for death. I will order someone to check the identity of that huakui. If she is really Jiang Jinyue, this person must not stay."
The crown prince didn't care about Jiang Jinyue's life or death at all, so he agreed with the Empress, only asking her to be careful and not let his father find out.
After finishing speaking, the crown prince wanted to leave, but he stopped after a few steps. He pointed to the back of Changning palace and asked, "Mother, has he been honest recently?"
Ever since the second prince's rebellion, the empress had fallen out with Yue Heng, so she couldn't pretend to be a loving mother and filial son like before. Yue Heng didn't come to greet her, and she wouldn't take the initiative to see Yue Heng, very unfamiliar.
"What kind of trouble can that little bastard do? With me here, how can he stir up trouble? Don't worry, I won't let him threaten you. If that day comes, it will be his death."
The crown prince knew what happened back then, and he knew even more that there was a blood feud between him and the sixth brother. If the sixth brother knew the truth, he would definitely not show mercy to him and his mother. Therefore the crown prince was also always vigilant against this younger brother.
"Yes, the child knows, but mother should send more people to keep an eye on him. If father or the courtiers know what happened back then, mother and the child..."
The Empress was clear about the consequences, "I will send more people to keep an eye on him."
