After rebirth, the concubine counterattacked and became a royal concubine

Bai Zhaoyi stood up obediently following Emperor Jing's words and blessed his body towards him as a way of thanking him for his reward.

Emperor Jing found an excuse to drive everyone out, stood up and walked slowly towards the eldest princess's bed.

"A'nan, don't blame the emperor. If the father hadn't been so partial to the sixth brother, maybe none of this would have happened..."

Emperor Jing held the cold fingertips of the eldest princess with a painful look on his face. He had the courage to say these words only when she was unconscious.

Countless nights he would wake up from his dreams, the guilt in his heart flooding him like a tide.

He actually didn't want to kill this imperial sister.

Looking at the pale cheeks of the woman in front of him, Emperor Jing suddenly remembered the day decades ago when he was punished by his father to kneel in the long street because he accidentally bumped into the empress.

He was only ten years old at that time. He was so dizzy from the heavy rain that he almost fell down on the spot. Xiao Jianan, who was still young and less than six years old, ordered someone to hold an umbrella for him, and ran to his father to plead for mercy. Then he was sent back to the palace, already suffering from high fever, and he sent someone to ask the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat him.

But at that time, he didn't like this imperial sister who had been pampered since childhood and was a direct descendant of the middle palace, so he always drove people away with a cold face.

In fact, it was just because he was jealous.

Jealous that she has such a good background, jealous that she has the love of the Queen, jealous that even her father, who is usually rigid and serious, will hold her in his arms with a smile on his face when he sees her, jealous that she has the protection of her sixth brother Xiao Jiajue, Jealous of the fact that she was born with no worries about food and clothing and didn't know much about the world.

But with such a humble background, he had to do his best to stay alive in the palace.

If someone is not careful, he may die in someone's hands.

This palace is a cage that eats people, but Xiao Jianan has never been a trapped beast in it.

But later he couldn't help but move closer to the bright and hot little dumpling, and then he knew the answer in his heart.

In fact, he didn't hate this imperial girl who was always quirky at all.

As time went by, the little dumpling finally grew into a graceful girl, but her temperament was still the same as when she was young.

Still so pure and bright.

At that time, Xiao Jiatai and Xiao Jiajue had become close friends who talked about everything. Even though they were both contenders for the throne, they still drank and talked happily every day.

If his father hadn't been so partial and refused to leave him the slightest chance, how could he have embarked on this path of no return?

If he could, why would he be willing to kill his brother with his own hands?

Emperor Jing was not without pain and guilt, but compared with the power and status he had obtained now, it was nothing worth mentioning.

Only when he sits in this position of great authority will he not be humiliated by others, can he give the people a better life, and can he decide the life and death of others at will.

Emperor Jing closed his eyes in pain, and when he opened them again, his eyes were clear.

Putting the eldest princess's hand into the soft quilt again, Emperor Jing's mouth pulled out a bitter smile and said:

"Anan, I'm sorry."

The woman on the bed was still lying on the bed quietly like a porcelain doll, without any other reaction except breathing.

"Brother Huang knows that if you know all this, I'm afraid you will never forgive Brother Huang again, but I don't regret it. If I do it again, I will make the same choice. This world and family love are like fish and bear's paws. It’s destined to be impossible to have both.”

After Emperor Jing said that, he took one last look at the sleeping eldest princess, and then left the room.

But he didn't notice that after he left, a silent tear fell from the corner of the princess's eye and down her cheek.

Emperor Jing did not stay in the eldest princess's residence for a long time because of his busy state affairs. He quickly left with his people, leaving only two imperial doctors to take care of the eldest princess's body at any time.

Bai Zhaoyi smiled and left the person behind, then respectfully blessed his body towards Emperor Jing's leaving figure.

After Emperor Jing left, Bai Zhaoyi led people back to his yard. As soon as he entered the house, a figure knelt respectfully in front of Bai Zhaoyi and repeated all the words that Emperor Jing had just said when he was alone in the house.

Bai Zhaoyi's expression didn't change much. She had already seen everything that Emperor Jing said with her own eyes in that dream.

But this was the first time that Sandalwood and the others knew about these things. Even the usually calm Sandalwood and Jingzhe had shocked expressions on their faces.

It turns out that all this was actually done by Emperor Jing himself!

Especially the eyes of Jingzhe and Lixia are already red. They have grown up in the eldest princess's mansion since they were young, so naturally their feelings for the eldest princess are much deeper than that of Sandalwood and the others.

The eldest princess is gentle and never punishes her servants. Most of the time, as long as they finish the work in hand, they can go back to their rooms to rest, and they can get generous monthly allowances on time every month.

In winter, the eldest princess would order them to make several sets of thick clothes to resist the cold. In summer, she would send someone to cook a large pot of mung bean soup every day for them to drink.

This kind of treatment has never been seen in other houses.

But now the eldest princess actually...

"Miss, Your Majesty, he..."

Jingzhe looked at the girl sitting on the beauty's couch with red eyes and hesitated to speak. She criticized His Majesty as it was a serious crime and she didn't dare to say it so easily.

Bai Zhaoyi closed his eyes and nodded silently, while Yin Yue still knelt on the ground and did not get up.

"Lonicera, how do you think His Majesty is doing now?"

Bai Zhaoyi opened her red lips lightly and asked the girl beside her the question in her heart.

Due to the eldest princess's poor health these days, Liandong has been staying at the eldest princess's mansion and has not returned to Jishi Hall. Nowadays, there are many doctors in Jishi Hall, so even if Liandong is not there, there will be no trouble.

Although Rendong did not have the opportunity to diagnose Emperor Jing's pulse, he could tell something by looking at his face, so Rendong thought about it again and replied seriously:

"Master, although Liandong didn't have the chance to feel your majesty's pulse, judging from his appearance, your majesty's body is probably not in good health. So many doctors in the palace have not diagnosed what's going on with your majesty's body. This shows how clever the other party's methods are. "

Lonicera suddenly remembered something, and his eyes suddenly brightened a little but then dimmed quickly.

Bai Zhaoyi naturally noticed the change in Lonicera's expression, and asked curiously:

"What's wrong? But do you have something to say?"

Lonicera hesitated for a moment and said: "Master, although my brother is good at poisoning, he can't cure the poison that the eldest princess was poisoned. This shows how overbearing this poison is, but how did Xiao Jiatai get such a powerful poison back then?"
