Concubine Jing walked out from behind the man and glared coldly at Guo
Lingxi. “How good can you be? Don’t think that I don’t know your past in the
Great Zhou. What right do you have to criticize me?”
Guo Lingxi smiled coldly. “No matter what, I’ve never had any physical contact with a man. You said that it was in the Great Zhou. After coming to the Western Jin, I was focused on being a imperial concubine and didn’t have any ulterior motives with any man! Aiya, I wonder what His Majesty will do to you when he finds out.”
The Western Jin Emperor was a ruthless monarch. If he found out that his concubine had an affair with an outsider, the outcome of the two of them would definitely be worse than death.
Consort Ting’s face turned Dale and her attitude softened. “Sister Guo. we’re all
in the same boat. Why do you have to do this?”
Guo Lingxi chuckled. “You’re wrong. You’re sick, but I’m not.”
Concubine Jing smiled. “Don’t you want to get Wei Ting? Yes, it’s impossible between you and Wei Ting, but are you really willing for him to be snatched away by another woman? You’re very jealous of that Madam Wei, right? That day at the palace banquet, you looked at her more than at Wei Ting. I guess you wish you could cut her into pieces. Although I can’t help you get your ideal husband, I can help you eliminate a thorn in your side. Do you think this is more worth it than a deal?”
Guo Lingxi said coldly, “She’s not so easy to deal with.”
Concubine Jing knew that she was tempted, and her smile deepened. “Actually, some things are not as complicated as you think. As long as you agree, I will definitely have a way to help you deal with her. Moreover, I can make Wei Ting hate her forever!”
“What method?” Guo Lingxi asked.
Concubine Jing looked at the man beside her. ‘You heard it just now. He’s an advisor to the Third Prince’s residence and is deeply trusted by Yuwen Lin. He’ll lure Yuwen Lin over later, and you will lure Madam Wei over.”
Guo Lingxi was stunned. “You want to frame her and Yuwen Lin…” Concubine Jing smiled wantonly. “She seduced Yuwen Lin.”
In Chongming Hall, Su Xiaoxiao was listening to the Yuwen Xin talk about some interesting things in the West Capital.
Suddenly, the female official beside Guo Lingxi walked over and bowed to Su Xiaoxiao. She whispered, “My lady is waiting for Madam in the imperial garden. She has something to discuss with Madam.”
What important things could Guo Lingxi have to discuss with her?
Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment before putting down her wine glass and leaving with the female official.
In the imperial garden, Guo Lingxi paced nervously.
“Why are you looking for me?”
The sudden voice frightened Guo Lingxi. She turned around and looked at Su Xiaoxiao, who had been brought over by the female official. She suppressed the panic in her heart and said, “I think I found someone just now. It’s a spy from Northern Yan.”
Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “If you find a spy from Northern Yan, just tell His
Majesty. What are you telling me?”
Guo Lingxi’s eyes flashed. “I don’t have any evidence. What if I make a mistake and falsely accuse Northern Yan?”
Su Xiaoxiao crossed her arms and looked at her calmly. “Even you, Guo Lingxi, are afraid?”
Guo Lingxi said angrily, “Are you going to take a look? It’s fine if you’re not going. ”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled faintly. “I’ll go. The Great Zhou and Northern Yan are mortal enemies. Since it’s a a spy from Northern Yan, I have to take a look. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be a waste of your kindness?”
Guo Lingxi brought Su Xiaoxiao to a desolate woodshed, and the female official followed the two of them silently.
“It’s the woodshed ahead,” Guo Lingxi said to Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao walked forward without a word, not caring if Guo Lingxi followed.
Guo Lingxi opened her mouth. “Wait!”
Su Xiaoxiao stopped and turned to look at her.
“You…” Guo Lingxi hesitated.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Say what you want to say quickly. If it’s too late, the spy from Northern Yan might not be around.”
“I…” Guo Lingxi hesitated and clenched her handkerchief.
Su Xiaoxiao suddenly smiled. “Guo Lingxi, you can’t do anything to me. No wonder you can’t defeat Zhao Kangjing.”
Guo Lingxi’s pupils dilated.
Su Xiaoxiao smiled faintly. “But it’s not a bad thing. It means that my threat yesterday was very successful.”
Guo Lingxi’s eyes flashed with humiliation.
She realized something and suddenly turned to look at the female official behind her.
The female official lowered her head deeply.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Don’t make things difficult for her. She’s just a female official.”
Guo Lingxi might be stunned by her hatred of the female official from the Great Zhou, but the female official would not lose her mind. She was here on behalf of the Great Zhou. She had to take into account the overall situation. She could not watch as the Great Zhou’s Madam was schemed against by the Princess of Northern Yan..
