Chapter 366 The Imperial Concubine is Pure and Elegant (One Hundred and Fifteen)
Ji Mingyue figured it out when she was crying in the main hall of Cining Palace. The backlash Ji Wei suffered was far less than hers. It was because she was protected by the child in her belly. The twins took on part of the backlash for the mother.
Ji Wei still has no abdominal pain, which shows that the two children have strong vitality and will be born safely in the future.
Her great-aunt once said that Emperor Liang had few children and was destined to have no more than three surviving children, so the child in her sister's belly was particularly important to the childless Emperor Liang.
She once thought about killing Ji Wei and adopting her son, but now she can't protect herself, and Emperor Liang will not give her a chance to turn things around.
In order for the twins to grow up safely and be loyal to the Ji State, they need to have people from the Ji State around them.
If the children were given to other people to raise, their ties with the Ji State would definitely be consciously weakened, and such children would also be inclined towards the Liang State when they grew up.
If Ji Mingyue wants Ji Wei to raise the prince personally, she must not harm Ji Wei anymore, and she must also clear Ji Wei from the conspiracy to murder the queen using witchcraft.
Not only could she not take revenge, but she had to protect Ji Wei, which made Ji Mingyue feel unwilling and depressed.
Ji Mingyue closed her eyes to hide her sadness, raised her head and smiled at the Queen of Daliang:
"Yes, as the legitimate princess, I came to Daliang but was overshadowed by my concubine sister whom I always looked down upon. I really wish she would die. Actually, you are not the first person whose fortune I have taken away. Ji Wei is also one of them. However, we are related by blood, so the extent of my ability to take away fortune is limited. That's why I set my sights on you."
She said maliciously, "Do you know why I know you are born with the destiny of a phoenix?"
The Queen Mother asked coldly, "Why? I have never heard of it."
"That's because the Ji family fabricated the story of being born with the Phoenix Fate and needed to convince the late emperor. To do so, they borrowed the witchcraft of our Ji Kingdom."
Queen Ji: "Impossible! You are trying to sow discord between the Ji family and the emperor!"
"Really? The one who forged your Phoenix destiny was your uncle, Taoist Liao Yin. He had a confidante from our Wu clan. Your uncle was unable to convince the late emperor of your destiny. The late emperor was wavering between you and Cui Li, so Liao Yin asked my clan to help."
Queen Ji: "Shut up! Ji Mingyue, my uncle is Luo Pingbo! I don't know any Taoist Yin! There is not a single truth in your mouth! Come, drag her out and beat her to death!"
Ji Shilan shouted loudly, and several palace servants immediately opened the palace door, but were waved away by Liang Sheng.
Empress Ji: "Your Majesty, do you want to listen to this person slandering me?"
Liang Sheng had a cold face and signaled Ji Shilan with his eyes to stop.
Cui Li: "Queen, please calm down. She is not someone you can kill immediately. After all, she is a princess of another country and still has value."
The queen glared at Cui Li. This imperial concubine didn't go back to the palace, but stayed to laugh at her!
Cui Li saw Ji Shilan glaring at her and smiled back. She just wanted to watch a show. It was so nice to watch a show. Even if there were no fruits at hand, she could just eat some melon seeds!
Ji Mingyue smiled and said, "The Imperial Concubine is sensible. However, if you want to kill me, you must think twice before doing so. As early as after New Year's Eve, I took action against Ji Wei. Her death will not endanger me, but if I die, she will die too!"
Queen Ji: "Who knows if what you said is true? You are just talking nonsense to save your life."
"Really? Then you can ask Ji Fei to stretch out her left wrist and see if there is a red line on it."
Upon hearing this, Ji Wei lifted up her sleeves, and sure enough, there was a faint red line. She hated her sister to death.
