Chapter 224 Hanging oneself
Chapter 224 Hanging oneself
Zhou Lingge was stunned, she frowned and looked at Jin Xin.
"Hanged himself?"
"do you died?"
She remembered that Zhao Jingxue died after Qin Feiling in her previous life.
Qin Feiling blocked the arrow for her and died on the spot... When the news of his death was returned to the palace, Zhao Jingxue hanged herself in Fenghe Palace.
Now, Zhao Jingxue has only been demoted to a concubine, and she has not reached the bottom of her despair.
Zhou Lingge couldn't understand why Zhao Jingxue suddenly committed suicide?
Things suddenly became so strange that she couldn't help but become a little alert.
Jin Xin quickly shook her head: "He hasn't died yet, but the imperial physician said it seems there's no way to save him."
"The Queen Mother and His Majesty have both arrived at Fenghe Palace. It seems the Zhao family has also entered the palace..."
Zhou Lingge gradually felt a little uneasy in her heart.
She frowned and slowly sat down.
"Where's Qiao'er? Where is she?"
Jin Xin's eyes were filled with worry: "It seems like he was just called away half an hour ago."
"Your Majesty, I suspect there is something very strange about Concubine Zhao's suicide."
Zhou Lingsong tapped the table lightly with her fingers.
With every knock, her originally restless heart calmed down a little.
At the end, she straightened her messy palace dress.
"Find some time and let Yan'er meet me."
"Since everyone is going to Fenghe Palace to visit Concubine Zhao... naturally, I cannot be absent."
She now has the power to manage the six palaces. She feels that Zhao Jingxue's matter is not that simple and must be investigated thoroughly.
Zhou Lingge packed up simply and took Jinxin to Fenghe Palace.
When she arrived, all the concubines in the harem were present.
Even Zhou Shiya, who has always lived a secluded life, was among them.
Now, most of the concubines in the harem are newcomers who have just entered the palace through selection. They have not had much contact with Zhou Lingge and have only heard some rumors that the imperial concubine is very favored.
When Zhou Lingge stepped into the palace, the concubines all looked at each other with amazement.
The Imperial Concubine is so beautiful, no wonder she is favored by the Emperor and has received His Majesty's unique love.
If they had this kind of beauty, they could also win the favor of the emperor.
After being amazed, these concubines were more jealous...but they were of low status, so even if they were unwilling, they had to pay their respects to the imperial concubine.
Especially Gao Guiren, she stared at Zhou Lingge with her eyes fixed.
The jealousy in her eyes was almost blazing.
She bowed along with everyone else.
"May the Royal Concubine be blessed with good health."
Zhou Lingge glanced at the newly promoted concubines and told them indifferently that they didn't need to be polite.
She glanced towards the inner hall. The Queen Mother, Qin Feiling, and the Zhao family were all there...
There was a huge crowd of people inside, and she couldn't see the specific situation clearly.
She asked the palace maids in Fenghe Palace.
"How is Concubine Zhao doing now?"
The palace maid's eyes were red as she slowly shook her head: "The imperial physician said that my queen is dying and will not survive this night."
Lin Yan held the handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes. "I don't know why Sister Zhaopin suddenly became so depressed and committed suicide by hanging herself."
Someone immediately chimed in: "Maybe it has something to do with His Majesty suddenly demoting her to a concubine?"
"I don't know what she did to anger His Majesty and be demoted to a concubine?"
The news about what happened last night has been completely blocked, so it's normal that the people in the harem don't know about it.
When Qin Feiling learned that Zhou Lingge had arrived, he hurried out of the inner hall, walked up to her, and held her slightly cold hand. "Your Highness is here? Why are your hands so cold?"
Zhou Lingge looked at Qin Feiling with her eyes moving around. Thinking of her previous dream and her past life, she felt extremely complicated.
She wanted to say something but stopped herself... There were thousands of words in her throat but she didn't know what to say for a moment.
Qin Feiling's eyes were full of concern: "What's wrong? Are you scared?"
He took her into his arms and said, "I don't know what triggered Zhao Jingxue, but she couldn't think straight and hanged herself... She wanted to die on her own, no one forced her. These things have nothing to do with you, so don't blame yourself."
Zhou Lingge slowly shook her head and leaned against his chest: "I don't blame myself."
All she had was doubt.
Zhao Jingxue doesn't look like someone who would risk her life because of this blow.
She really couldn't understand why Zhao Jingxue committed suicide?
Zhou Lingge grabbed Qin Feiling's sleeve and asked, "How is Concubine Zhao doing now?"
Qin Feiling lowered her eyes: "It's not good... Concubine Wan is inside now, checking Concubine Zhao's pulse."
Zhou Lingge's eyes flickered. She almost forgot that there was a person named Concubine Wan in the palace.
Before, the palace people said that Concubine Wan had superb medical skills. However, since entering the palace, Concubine Wan has not been able to use her medical skills much. Even the imperial physicians are helpless in treating the disease. Can Concubine Wan be sure to bring the patient back to life?
Qin Feiling embraced Zhou Lingge and walked into the inner hall. Gao Wen's eyes turned red with jealousy, and she followed in unconsciously.
Last night, His Majesty called her number, and she thought she could successfully sleep with His Majesty and serve Him. However, who would have thought that His Majesty was busy reviewing memorials and did not return home all night.
Later, she became tired from waiting and fell asleep leaning on the bed.
When she woke up, His Majesty had already gone to court.
She said that she was called upon to sleep with the emperor, but she had not even seen the emperor... What made her even more upset was that she did not dare to tell anyone about this, for fear that others would laugh at her and make her lose her foothold in the harem.
Ever since His Majesty came to Fenghe Palace, he has never glanced at her.
As soon as the imperial concubine came over, Qin Feiling couldn't wait to embrace her in his arms... Gao Wen gritted her teeth secretly, her eyes fixed on the hand that Qin Feiling was holding around the imperial concubine's waist.
How she wished to be held in His Majesty's arms and be the one to be cared for with all kinds of tenderness!
Humph, it must be that Your Majesty hasn’t tasted her.
If Your Majesty knew how good she was, would he still be so fond of the imperial concubine?
No matter what, she had to attract His Majesty's attention and successfully serve him in bed, so that she would have a chance to win His Majesty's favor.
Her mother taught her a lot, including how to serve men and make them feel extremely happy.
She was confident that once His Majesty touched her body, he would be completely unable to extricate himself and be immersed in her gentleness.
As Gao Wen thought about it, she got so excited that she no longer cared about the occasion.
She twisted her feet and pounced on Qin Feiling.
"Ah... Your Majesty, save me."
Qin Feiling was caught off guard. He was holding Zhou Lingge's waist and entering her when he was suddenly hit by a strong force.
His eyes were filled with panic, and he quickly protected Zhou Lingge...
Then another warm body pressed against his arm.
He was frightened and kicked without even looking.
"What the hell..."
"If the imperial concubine's heir is harmed, you will be held responsible."
With a bang, before Gao Wen could react, Qin Feiling kicked her to the ground.
She couldn't help but scream in pain and quickly cried for mercy: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I didn't mean to do that. I just twisted my ankle and fell accidentally."
