The Fourth Lady

Chapter 381 Guifei's Choice (Ⅰ)

After coming to the realization that she had to side with Qilian Yvran, Ding Shuqi was the first one to

find Xuanyuan Shi and discuss with him. Xuanyuan Shi frowned as he listened to her analysis.

Although he knew that Xuanyuan Yvzhen was hard to deal with, he hadn't expected that Guifei would

have also thought of this.

But in their eyes, the throne was important whether, they would be satisfied if they could be with each

other.

Moreover, if Xuanyuan Yvzhen really wanted to fight for the throne, he still got his forces to fight back.

"Shi, did you hear me?" Looking at Xuanyuan Shi, Ding Shuqi asked seriously, "if you don't want me to

rely on the imperial concubine, I can give up on this idea, but if..."

"Qiqi, I was just thinking about your analysis." Xuanyuan Shi listened to her and then looked at her with

a smile. "You have to know that the pros and cons are also very important to us."

Hearing Xuanyuan Shi's words, Ding Shuqi nodded seriously. "I understand that, so I want to rely on

the imperial concubine. You know, even if the Fourth Prince is going to succeed, I think we can still be

together. After all, his majesty still loves the imperial concubine the most."

Xuanyuan Shi looked at the expression on Ding Shuqi's face and took her into his arms. "If it weren't

for me, you wouldn't have to wait for so long in this deep palace."

When Ding Shuqi looked at Xuanyuan Shi, she shook her head and said, "Shi, I said that I didn't regret.

Moreover, this matter is not up to us. We can't force such things."

Xuanyuan Shi certainly knew what Ding Shuqi was thinking. However, as a man, a man who loved his

woman deeply, he could only watch his woman moan under the bodies of another man. But he

believed that the emperor hadn't touched Qiqi at all.

"Qiqi, is Yvzhe really my son?" Xuanyuan Shi looked at Ding Shuqi and asked seriously, "I don't mean

to doubt you. I just think that maybe Yvzhe is not my son."

Looking at Xuanyuan Shi, Ding Shuqi said with a smile, "Shi, maybe you don't know. In fact, the

emperor has only favored me a few times after I came to the imperial palace. At that time, the imperial

concubine didn't show up, so I had been favored by his majesty for a period of time. However, I

gradually lost his faovr. And at that time, I found myself pregnant. At that time, the emperor had come

to the Donghe Kingdom. So this child can only be yours. "

Xuanyuan Shi's heart ached when he heard Ding Shuqi's words. He knew clearly how much Xuanyuan NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

Hong liked Qilian Yvran. After Qilian Yvran entered the imperial palace, the emperor didn't visit other

concubines anymore. Instead, he treated Qilian Yvran wholeheartedly. It was not that no one had

objected to such an act, but he still acted as if he was doing his own way.

But five years ago, Qilian Yvran was seriously ill in the rain, and since then, he hadn't seen Qilian Yvran

again. The emperor promoted her to be the imperial concubine. She was the most powerful woman in

the imperial palace besides the empress.

But the rumor had it that this Qilian Yvran did not need to anything to win the emperor's heart. Most

importantly, the emperor would not look at other women even if they scrambled for his majesty's love.

It seemed that in the eyes of Emperor Hongjia, there was no one else, except for Qilian Yvran.

"Qiqi, just do as you have planned. I support you. If they really need our help, I will support them for

sure," Xuanyuan Shi looked at Ding Shuqi and said with a smile, "if Fourth Prince can inherit the

throne, that's what we want to see."

"Shi, do you really not blame me for that?" Looking at Ding Shuqi, Ding Shuqi said helplessly, "I just

don't want our affairs to be known by the emperor. The most important thing is that I don't want to be

your burden."

Xuanyuan Shi felt more sorry for Ding Shuqi when he heard her words. He said, "what are you talking

about? How could you be my burden? It's my fault, and I'm not blaming you. So don't think you are my

burden. Even brother knows it, I won't regret. "

As Ding Shuqi looked at Xuanyuan Shi, a sweet smile spread over her face. "Shi, you are so kind to

me."

Xuanyuan Shi once again made some warm ups to Ding Shuqi in the palace before leaving. After Ding

Shuqi left, Ding Shuqi got up to freshen up and prepared to go to see Qilian Yvran.

Because Qilian Yvran was her last hope, and the most important thing for her now was to firmly grasp

on this life-saving straw.

"Do you think the imperial concubine will accept me?" Guifei looked at the maid by her side and asked

with a smile. But the maid didn't answer her, so she said with mockery, "of course she won't help me.

After all, I did something bad to her in the past."

"Master, this matter has passed, and Cainv has been imprisoned in the Cold Palace. So, no one knows

this matter." The maid looked at her and said with respect, "besides, it was not your fault."

Hearing the maid's words, she could do nothing but let out a sigh of relief. She prayed in her heart that

even Qilian Yvran would not know what had happened in the past. After all, the past had always been a

knot in Qilian Yvran's heart because she lost an important friend.

"Dress me up. I want to see the imperial concubine now."

When Qilian Yvran was taking a nap, a maid told her that Guifei had come to visit. Qilian Yvran glanced

at the news brought by Qingyan. She knew Qingyan respected her and let her make the final decision,

but when she thought of her dead friend, she felt inexplicable pain in her heart. After all, if she could

find out what had happened in the past in time, she would not have resulted in a massive hemorrhage

as to die.

As soon as this thought came to her mind, Qilian Yvran held her hands tightly. She closed her eyes for

a moment and then opened them. But her eyes were filled with indescribable calm.

"Tell Guifei, I'm washing my face. I'll be ready in a minute."

When thinking of this, Qilian Yvran smiled. The only thing she wanted to know right now was the truth

of the matter. Although the death of Zier was caused by Fengqin, and Fengqin now had her deserved

ending. But she really wanted to know why Ding Shuqi also meddled in the matter of that year.

After freshening up, Qilian Yvran saw Guifei sitting there seriously. Seeing Guifei's expression, Qilian

Yvran walked to the host seat and said to Guifei with a smile, "sister, I wonder if it has anything to do

with you of what happened to Zier."
