"In the old days in the East Palace, how did the dragonborn in Zheng Liangdi's belly disappear? How did she die? How did Gao Meiren's imperial heir disappear? How did she go crazy and lose her footing and fell into the lake and drowned? The imperial concubine should I know it better than I do!

"The recipe that Concubine Zhao found for giving birth to a child from outside the palace almost caused the death of the dragonborn in her belly. But where did she get the recipe? Is the imperial concubine really innocent?

"You keep saying that I don't protect you now, but I want to ask, I once regarded you as more important than any other woman and protected you everywhere, but this is how you repay me?

"If I really pursue the serious crime of murdering the emperor's heir, do you think you can continue to sit in the position of a noble concubine and dictate my affairs?

"My concubine, some things have passed. I chose to protect you in the first place and will not pursue it any further. Do you have to force me to speak so clearly and cut off the last trace of affection between you and me?"

Concubine Xie didn't know how she got out of the imperial study.

Her hands and feet were cold, her head was covered in cold sweat, and her face was so pale that she startled Huiyun who was waiting outside.

"What's wrong with your Majesty?" Huiyun quickly supported her.

"He knows...he actually knew it all along!" Concubine Xie's face was ugly. She leaned on Huiyun's arms with both feet. She suddenly seemed to have lost all strength, and could hardly even stand still.

"Empress?" Huiyun looked confused.

"Zheng Liangdi's child, how Zheng Liangdi died, Gao Meiren's madness, Zhao Concubine's method of giving birth...he knows everything!" Concubine Xie said, with two lines of tears streaming down her eyes.

She clutched Huiyun's arm in despair, her voice was shrill and sad, "It turns out that in his mind, I am no longer the kind-hearted and upright girl he liked in the past. Step by step, she became completely different under his gaze. .

"But Huiyun, why didn't he tell me earlier that he knew everything?

"He didn't say anything and kept me in the dark. It's ridiculous that I kept pretending to be the same in front of him!

"From the beginning to the end, I am like a poor actor. He thinks that every play he performs is perfect, but it turns out that in his eyes, it is already full of flaws!"

Concubine Xie's mood almost collapsed to the extreme, and she didn't even care that there were many palace people watching around her!

Huiyun understood everything as soon as she heard what she said!

"Mother! Cheer up! You must be steady! Now that the Holy One knows everything, but he has never asked about your sins, it means that in the Holy One's heart, these things have passed! He still cares about the Holy Mother! Huiyun quickly persuaded in a low voice.

"No, it's different. He doesn't love me anymore, Huiyun, he really doesn't love me anymore... The love between me and him that started when we were young is broken! It's finally broken today!" Concubine Xie still collapsed. The earth cried loudly.

"Your Majesty! If Your Majesty really doesn't love your Majesty, your Majesty should cheer up and plan more for yourself in the future!"

Huiyun persuaded her with a headache and tried his best to support her, "Empress, you are still in front of the emperor now! Let's go back to Yongshou Palace first! We will make plans for everything after we get back!"

Concubine Xie went to Lu Zan to complain about Jingshu's leaving Yicui Palace before the grounding was lifted. However, she was scolded by Lu Zan and finally left the Imperial Study Room in embarrassment and emotional breakdown. The story soon spread throughout the world. palace.

After Jingshu heard this, there was not much surprise on her face, she just smiled indifferently.

"That's Concubine Xie! Your Majesty used to really hold her in your hands and dote on her! But what about now? She went to complain to your empress, but your Majesty protected your empress! Your Majesty treats your empress so well!" Xiu Qing said sincerely. Happy sighed.

"is it?"

Jing Shu raised her eyebrows and responded quietly, feeling clear and calm in her heart.

The relationship between Lu Zan and Concubine Xie for many years has changed at any time.

If he could treat Concubine Xie like this for her as his new favorite today, he would treat her like this for another new favorite tomorrow.

The emperor's indifference is doomed to make the flowers never bloom, and the harem can flourish forever without the favor of any woman.

The only thing she should do is not to be blinded by the favor in front of her and forget about herself.

It was time to take advantage of Lu Zan's current love for her to get everything she wanted and could get.

In this way, he will have a new favorite in the future. At least, he will still have a position that no one can shake, and he can live the pure life he wants.

In Kunning Palace, Xiang Yan, who was combing the queen's hair, was quite happy.

"Empress, Concubine Xie must have offended the Holy One so much that she was reprimanded by the Holy One! Now the Holy One favors Yuan Xiuyi and doesn't even go to her Yongshou Palace! It's a foregone conclusion that Concubine Xie has fallen out of favor! In the future, the Queen can Sit back and relax!”

When the queen heard this, she smiled lightly.

"Really? I don't think so."

"Miss?"

"Do you know why Concubine Xie was clearly favored by the Holy Emperor in the past, and the Holy Emperor protected her every time she fought with me, but she was never able to pull me from the position of queen?"

"Why?"

"Because she is so in love with the Holy Spirit."

There was a hint of sarcasm in the queen's eyes, "The most taboo thing in the harem is the word 'love', which is a woman's biggest weakness.

"Concubine Xie loves the Holy One so much that she has to worry about what the Holy One thinks of her no matter what she does. She is afraid that her true nature will be exposed in front of the Holy One, so she does everything timidly.

"One thing can obviously achieve a 100% effect, but she can only achieve 80%.

“There are many things that she wouldn’t be able to do if I hadn’t secretly helped her.

"With her like this, even if I give her another ten years, she still won't be able to shake my position at all.

"After that, if she is so heartbroken about the Holy One and no longer loves the Holy One, then there is no telling. In this harem, whoever doesn't love the Holy One in his heart will win."

After the queen finished speaking, a smug sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth.

She had spent so many years arranging the plan just so that one day the gap between Lu Zan and Concubine Xie would become deeper and deeper, and eventually all the past friendship would be completely severed.

Perhaps, she has waited.

……

……

In a blink of an eye, the draft is coming to an end.

The final palace selection was still conducted by the Queen and Concubine Xie, and Lu Zan personally selected.

On the eve of the palace election, Yicui Palace finally welcomed Concubine Ning.

She brought Pei Shanyu and several scrolls with her. As soon as she arrived, she showed Jingshu straight to the point.

Jingshu opened it and saw that there were portraits of beautiful women inside, all of them outstanding in appearance and unique in their own way, making people unable to take their eyes away.

"Sister Concubine Ning came here specially. She didn't say anything, but she sent these portraits. What's the purpose?" Jing Shu asked with a smile.

"These are the beautiful girls who will definitely be selected by the palace tomorrow."

Concubine Ning also smiled slightly, "These people specially selected by Concubine Xie are not only outstanding in appearance, but also famous beauties from all over the country. They also have strong family backgrounds. They are no worse than your Taifu's family, and they will almost certainly be selected by the Holy Emperor.

"She chose so many beauties for the Holy Lord. I think Yuan Xiuyi only needs to use his brain to understand what her purpose is."
