Inside the Go Mansion Li Qing was kneeling in front of her mother in law, tears forming in her eyes as she tried to mask them, thus creating a pitiful appearance.
Go Kang felt his heart clench since she married in his house he has never seen her crying so bitterly.
His hands were clenched, as he wanted to kill that evil girl now sleeping comfortably in his own house.
Grandma Go sneered, she knew her son was soft for his wife but as a mother she hated seeing this exchange of love. She had inserted so many concubines for his son in his courtyard but this vixen has captured his heart thoroughly.
She had managed the courtyard so well that she would only let her son enjoy the concubines when it was safe day for them so that none of the concubines could get pregnant.
When asked she would say it was heaven's will, but she knew even if some concubine gets pregnant she would sneak some abortifacient in their meals killing the foetus.
In stern voice she addressed "Daughter in law this cursed adopted daughter was brought into this mansion from your maternal side and we both know why killing her is important, now she is creating a scene to the extent that we can't do any harm to her or else our name will be blemished forever".
Li Qing cried bitterly " Mother, I know what you think about this, I promise to do something about this".
Go Kang whispered " what if someone else be blamed for her death then what".
Li Qing looked confused " what do you mean husband?"
Go Kang spoke calmly and precisely " Emperor's concubine Mei is pregnant, he is organising a banquet for her honour during next full moon, what if create a situation where it would appear that someone poisoned HwaHwa, because they were planning to harm the concubine and she mistook the poison by mistake and we will make Yang family our scapegoat. He had been standing against me these few days in his majesties court".
Li Qing's eyes brightened " initially I did not want to bring her out to the public but now once killed, we don't have to worry about anything ".
Grandma Go nodded " we will do according to your plan son, but understand one thing, sitting on the throne the ruler has his eyes everywhere but with her death HwaHwa will also bring us a chance for gaining the uperhand, we can ask for any compensation including your promotion ".
Go Qing who was listening to this smiled and hug her grandmother " It's Good that sister will die I don't like that I have to address that wild girl my elder sister everywhere specially with my friends. During banquet I won't interact with her, thus no one will blame us.Grandma you are the best".
If anyone else heard that he would be surprised seeing the viciousness in this young child, but those days need for survival and power override anything including this cruelty but this behaviour was rather appreciated by the family members.
Grandma Go hugged the children as she made plans to kill another child in cold blood.
