The matter of Consort Xian’s great display of supernatural powers in King Rui’s mansion quickly spread back to the palace.
For a while, the heart of the concubines in the harem became more and more complicated.
Originally, Consort Xian was already favoured enough, they didn’t even dare to openly oppose her, they could only wait for her own death and bad luck.
But this time she is so big, then they will not be able to wait for the day of her bad luck?
The hearts of the crowd continued to sink.
In the imperial garden, two figures walked slowly with curling steps, enjoying the flowers and looking at the scenery, with the same smile on their faces.
The woman in white faintly smiled lightly, “Have you heard all about Princess Xian’s matter?”
“It’s making a lot of noise, how could I not hear about it? I just didn’t expect that Consort Liu collapsed so easily, it’s really useless.”
“So what if she collapsed? As long as the person is still alive, there is no fear of no wood to burn.”
“But her current identity ……”
“Rui Wang Ping wife’s identity is nothing, her most important identity, is not the empress dowager’s sister?”The white-robed woman laughed lightly, “This time, Rui Wang punished her so heavily, is not just to tell the Empress Dowager to feel sorry for this sister, and to take care of her more in the future?”
“Well, that’s true.”

Su Miao was incredibly fortunate that as soon as she returned to the palace, Di Bei Yu was summoned away by the imperial study on important matters of imperial affairs.
She busily stripped herself clean and had Yue Yue anoint her with medicine.
By the time the man returned, there was no way to stop it.
However, Di Bei Yu wasn’t really trying to torture her, so against her pretentiously pleasing expression, he just gave her a knock on the head.
Su Miao glared at him, “I’ve wiped it all, you’re not going to wipe it off for me, right?”
“Originally it was not to, but after you said so ……” the man seemed to be smiling, “It seems like there’s nothing wrong with taking you to a hot spring right now.”
“………”
Su Miao immediately ran over to sit on his lap, “You just went to see who ah, how so long to come back?”
She originally did not care about these matters of imperial government, just casually asked to pull away from the topic, but the man heard, his face was a slight beat, “Speaking of which, this matter you may also really interested.”
Su Miao’s eyes lit up, “Eh?”
“The one who came was an envoy from the Dongling.”
“…… Does this have anything to do with me?”Why would she be interested?
The man said indifferently, “It will soon be the annual summit of the four countries, Dongling, Xiliang, South Yao, and North Xie, each year will change a host country, this year it just so happens to be Xiliang’s turn, half a month later, the ambassadors of the four countries will all arrive.”
Su Miao blinked, “What does the four countries summit do?”
“Every year is different, in the past than anything, zither, chess, calligraphy, painting, martial arts riding and shooting, also every year by different countries take turns to give their opinions, this year it is Dongling, so their envoys arrived in Xiliang in advance.”
After a pause, “This time they are going to compare the arts.”
Su Miao’s face changed slightly, “Art …… art?”
The dark deep eyes suddenly fell on her face, “Not bad.”
Su Miao was silent for a while, the joking look on her face completely converged, “Good end, how did you remember to compare this?”
Di Bei Yu converged his eyes in an uncertain manner, “The four countries will not go to war easily, but the competition in the open and in the dark will never be less. Whether it’s the border defence or the army, this time Dongling will bring the art to the surface, is to see the hidden strength of the countries.”
The armies were in the name, and the warlocks were in the shadows.
This year’s competition was to completely tease out the strength in the dark.
