Chapter 105: The End of the Story (1)
"Empress Meng is plotting against the Empress, I hereby strip her of her title and demote her to a cold palace. Guards, take her away!"
Meng Guifei knew she had no excuse, so she fixed her gaze on Tang Gudao beside her: "I calculated a thousand times and ten thousand times, but I never expected that the person with the most sinister motives in this palace would be you!"
Tang Guo Hui smiled perfectly, but there was a hint of mockery in her eyes.
She lightly opened her crimson lips: "Sister, you're being too serious. I've always been diligent and responsible, never daring to be as ambitious as you."
Tang Guo, are you trying to let me know about your thorough change?
……
Xuě Palace
"I didn't expect that Tang Guo Xue entering the imperial palace would change so much." Lin Xuan Yan said with emotion after hearing my account.
"No, I think she must have had her reasons." I hastened to explain, "I said all this just to help you understand her better."
"You think so and I won't disagree." Lin Xuan smiled slightly, "Our family's Yue'er is always the smartest."
I forced a smile.
Tang Gu, what are you planning to do? Your current situation really makes me worried.
……
The next day
The news of Meng Guifei's demotion quickly spread throughout the palace. And the one who brought her down was Tang Guifei, who had only been in the palace for a month. This news was even more explosive.
Tang Guifei is indeed a real person who doesn't show her true face! She has been here for only one month and has already demoted Meng Guifei, the most favored concubine before, to the Cold Palace. All the imperial consorts in the harem changed color upon hearing this news. They are afraid that Tang Guifei's next target of attack will be themselves.
Tang Guifei also gained more favor from the Emperor because of this matter and became a new target for everyone in the palace to curry favor with. For a time, she was radiant with glory.
Xuě Palace
At the sound of "Tang Guifei seeks an audience", Lin Xuan had no choice but to come out from the inner palace to deal with this currently most favored and powerful imperial concubine in the palace.
"See elder sister." Princess Tang Guifei said with a bow.
"No need for formalities, little sister." Lin Xuan's face was painted with a smile as she mechanically said: "Please take a seat."
"Thank you, sister." Meng Guifei took her seat: "Little sister has come this time to congratulate big sister."
"Congratulations? What's there to be happy about?" Lin Xuan asked with feigned puzzlement.
"Sister has removed a thorn from her eye, shouldn't younger sister congratulate older sister?" Empress Tang said with ulterior motives.
"Sister doesn't understand what younger sister is saying." Lin Xuan continued to pretend ignorance.
"Sister... ah!" As soon as she spoke, Tang Gu suddenly covered her mouth with her hand. Her face was contorted in pain. Her complexion was deathly pale.
"Oh no! Her Majesty has had a relapse of her heart condition!" said the palace maid beside her.
Lin Xuan hastily got up: "Quickly help Princess Tang into the inner palace! Cai Xia, go invite the imperial physician!" After that, a group of people hurriedly helped Princess Tang into the inner palace.
The imperial physician quickly arrived to take Tang Guo's pulse on the bed. At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on Tang Guo, who was pale-faced on the bed.
I only feel that there is something fishy about this matter. Unintentionally, I raised my head and found that the palace maid of Tang Guifei was not by her side. Another glance and I saw that the palace maid was sneaking towards the corner table in the inner hall. Her expression was tense. My heart skipped a beat, and I pretended to look at Tang Guifei on the bed, while keeping an eye on the palace maid's movements out of the corner of my eye. I only saw her back facing the table, hastily putting something into the drawer. Then she hurriedly returned to the crowd.
Before I could even think, a voice suddenly came from outside the palace: "The Emperor has arrived!"
