After killing four concubines, the queen was sentenced to death and reborn

"If you have the time, you'd better think about how to please His Majesty!" Concubine Wen snorted coldly, quickened her pace and shook off Concubine Li.

Lady Li stood there, her face flushed with anger, "Just wait and see, I want to see how long you can keep pretending."

Xiao Xuanchen came to Weiyang Palace for lunch that day. To be honest, he hadn't been here for some time.

"Your Majesty, I respectfully wish you good health and longevity." Zheng Xiyan went out to greet her.

Xiao Xuanchen walked forward and helped her up personally, "Get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Xiao Xuanchen helped her sit down, and Zheng Xiyan asked, "Your Majesty, how come you have time to come to Weiyang Palace today?"

Xiao Xuanchen held her hand and said apologetically, "I haven't come to see you these days and have ignored you. Are you angry?"

"How could that be? How could I be angry with Your Majesty?" Zheng Xiyan raised her eyebrows slightly, withdrew her hand, and poured a bowl of soup for Xiao Xuanchen and placed it in front of him. She continued, "It's just that the other sisters in the harem are quite resentful of Your Majesty's exclusive favor for Concubine Zhao."

"I know that Lady Zhao is the favorite of Your Majesty. I feel relieved to have her by Your Majesty's side."

"However, the harem hates exclusive favoritism the most. After a long time, both the court and the harem will inevitably have complaints. This is not good for Concubine Zhao. I dare to ask Your Majesty to spend more time with other concubines in the palace." Zheng Xiyan's words were flawless, and every word she said was for his consideration. Her voice was so gentle that even if Xiao Xuanchen was dissatisfied, he could not find any fault with her.

Xiao Xuanchen's eyes changed color, and his brows slightly furrowed, with a hint of impatience, "The Queen is right."

"Does the Queen dislike Concubine Zhao just like everyone else in the harem?" Xiao Xuanchen asked.

"Of course not. Lady Zhao has a gentle temperament and is low-key. She has never made any mistakes in following the rules. I am very satisfied with her." Zheng Xiyan replied with a smile.

"Does the Queen also have complaints about my favoritism towards Concubine Zhao?" Xiao Xuanchen's eyes were filled with a dark gloom.

"Your Majesty, you have really misunderstood me. It is up to Your Majesty to decide who to favor, and I will never complain."

"As the Empress, I should not be jealous, which is a virtue." She is pregnant now. Xiao Xuanchen is of no use to her in the short term. He can favor whoever he wants. What does it have to do with her?

"But, Your Majesty, if you really like Concubine Zhao, you should think more about her. If there is discord in the harem, Your Majesty will not be at ease in the previous dynasty, right?" Zheng Xiyan had a sparkling smile in her eyes.

Xiao Xuanchen stared at her, and after a moment he said with a smile: "What the Queen said is very true."

"I understand."

"Your Majesty is wise!" Zheng Xiyan smiled and said, "It has been a while since Concubine Zhao entered the palace and has been serving the emperor, but there has been no good news. We need to find an imperial physician to take a good look at her."

Xiao Xuanchen said: "She is weak and needs to be taken care of."

"That's fine. Your Majesty, please take this opportunity to let Concubine Zhao rest for a while. I will ask the imperial physician to take good care of Concubine Zhao."

"Well, just follow the Queen's orders!"

"Yes." Zheng Xiyan lowered her eyes and smiled softly.

A few days later, Biluo Shuangning accompanied Zheng Xiyan to take a walk in the Imperial Garden.

I happened to run into Lu Ran, "Greetings to the Queen, may the Queen be blessed with good health."

"No need to be polite." Zheng Xiyan said.

"Thank you, Queen."

"Shouldn't Guard Lu be in the Zichen Palace at this time? Why is he in the Imperial Garden?" Zheng Xiyan asked.

"Reporting to the Queen, His Majesty has ordered me to go to the Wubeiyuan to get a sword."

"I see." Zheng Xiyan glanced at the sword behind her. Just by looking at its appearance, she knew it was a good sword.

Lu Ran stood there, struggling for a while, and then said, "I heard that the Queen is pregnant, but I haven't congratulated her yet. Today I am here to congratulate her."

"Thank you." Zheng Xiyan said in a deep voice.

After saying that, Biluo supported Zheng Xiyan and continued walking forward.

"I respectfully send you to the Queen."

After she left, Lu Ran also turned and left.

Murong Yue saw this scene just now, "Who is that?"

Die Yun looked over and felt that he looked familiar, but was a little unsure, "It seems to be Lord Lu, the Imperial Guard beside His Majesty."

"Lu Ran?" Murong Yue asked.

"Yes."

Of course Murong Yue knew who Lu Ran was. He grew up with His Majesty and was His Majesty's confidant.

"This Lu Ran, and the Queen..."

"By the way, when we were in the palace before, wasn't there a rumor that the queen got frightened and fell off her horse and was rescued by a guard?" Although this matter was kept secret, it is not impossible for someone to find out if they pay attention.

"It seems like there is such a thing." Dieyun replied.

"Go, go check who saved the queen in the palace. If it happens to be this Lu Ran, then there will be something interesting to watch." The expression on Murong Yue's face instantly became sinister and cunning. Even if there was nothing going on between the two of them, there must be something going on.

Die Yun knew her personality best. She had just been released from house arrest, so it would be better for her to behave herself for the next few days. She advised, "Your Majesty, this has nothing to do with us. Let's go back to the palace first!"

"Why is it okay? This is a good opportunity to catch the Queen's handle. I don't believe that His Majesty will not be suspicious of her. Even if she is pregnant, so what?"

"As a man, there is no man who doesn't care if his woman has affairs with other men." Murong Yue became more and more excited as she spoke. This was a good opportunity for her to overthrow the queen.

"Your Majesty, what nonsense are you talking about? We have no evidence to prove that the Queen has any connection with Guard Lu. It is a serious crime to slander the Empress." Die Yun said fearfully.

"What are you afraid of? If there is really nothing between them, then there will be nothing wrong. But if... then don't blame me." Murong Yue's expression was grim. This time, she must make Zheng Xiyan fall hard.

"My lady, I beg you, please stop going against the Queen."

"She is the queen, and I am the imperial concubine. We are natural enemies. We must fight to the death in this palace. Otherwise, what is the point of entering the palace?"

"Miss!"
