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

Inside Shoukang Palace, Nanny Yu walked in slowly from the door, walked to the center of the main hall, and bowed gently, "Your Majesty the Queen Mother, I am back."

The Queen Mother was leisurely playing with the colorful bird in the cage, and the bird was chirping. The Queen Mother looked up at the sound, with a gentle smile on her lips: "I'm back, how is Concubine Yi doing?"

Nanny Yu bowed and reported in detail, her tone unable to conceal her worry: "Reporting to the Queen Mother, Concubine Yi looks sick and haggard, her face is pale, and she is indeed ill."

The Queen Mother's smile faded a little when she heard this, and she sighed softly, "She got sick at such a bad time."

"It's bad luck, but there's nothing we can do about it." Nanny Yu comforted her softly, then stepped forward and helped the Queen Mother to sit down slowly. "The two girls, Zi Rui and Zi Luo, have served in Weiyang Palace for many years. With them around, the Queen Mother can rest assured."

The Queen Mother stroked the teacup in her hand and said, "By the way, how did these two enter the palace? Were they assigned to the Weiyang Palace by the Internal Affairs Bureau?"

Nanny Yu shook her head gently, "I don't know. I will go to the Internal Affairs Bureau to find out later."

The Queen Mother waved her hand gently, her eyes deep: "Forget it, even if you go to the Internal Affairs Bureau, I'm afraid you won't be able to find out anything. These two are obviously the Queen's confidants. I always have a premonition in my heart that the Queen seems to be secretly planning something big this time, but the conspiracy behind it is hard to figure out."

Just as the Queen Mother was hesitating, there was a sound of light footsteps outside the palace, accompanied by the clear laughter of a young girl, and Princess Xuanhua strode into Shoukang Palace.

"Your son pays respects to the Queen Mother. I wish the Queen Mother good health and happiness."

Seeing this, the Queen Mother's face suddenly blossomed with surprise. She quickly stood up and took Princess Xuanhua's hand, her eyes full of love: "Xuanhua, why didn't you go to the palace?"

Princess Xuanhua smiled like a flower, squatted down, snuggled up to the Queen Mother, and said coquettishly: "I can't bear to leave you alone in the palace, so I decided to stay and accompany you. Isn't your mother happy?"

The Queen Mother smiled and patted the back of her hand, her face full of happiness: "I am happy, of course I am happy. With you by my side, my heart is sweeter than eating honey."

"Then I will stay in the palace, accompany my mother every day, and show my filial piety."

The Queen Mother smiled even more happily, tears glistening in her eyes, and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, with you here, Shoukang Palace has become more lively."

The Zhaoyang Palace was brightly lit. Zheng Xiyan and Xiao Xuanchen sat opposite each other on the jade table, with a dazzling array of delicacies on the table, and the aroma filled the air.

After dinner, Xiao Xuanchen wanted her to stay and sleep with him, but Zheng Xiyan declined. "Your Majesty, this is Yue'er's first time to come to the palace with you. She can't sleep at night if we change places. I want to go back to Chaoyun Palace to accompany Yue'er. I won't stay tonight."

Xiao Xuanchen's eyes revealed a hint of disappointment, and he said, "Okay! Then I won't keep you."

Zheng Xiyan smiled gently and opened her red lips, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your consideration." After that, she slowly stood up and bowed to Xiao Xuanchen with a dignified posture and sincere words.

Xiao Xuanchen looked at her leaving back and finally sighed softly. After Zheng Xiyan's figure disappeared from the palace gate, he ordered in a deep voice: "Tell Lu Chongyi to sleep with you tonight."

At this moment, in Chaoyun Palace, Zheng Xiyan walked into the inner room. Biluo came forward and reported in a low voice: "Your Majesty, His Majesty has summoned Lu Chongyi to sleep with him." Zheng Xiyan heard this, her face calm, she just said lightly "I know", and turned to walk into the inner room.

In Fangyue Pavilion, Lu Chuyi was walking in the courtyard, the moonlight shining on her beautiful face, adding a bit of coolness. Suddenly she heard the voice of the eunuch in front of the emperor, and her heart tightened, foreboding everything that was about to come.

The eunuch in front of the emperor walked forward slowly, put his hands lightly on his waist, and bowed slightly, "Your servant greets Empress Chongyi, may Empress Chongyi be well."

Lu Chuyi's face was as cold as the moon, and her eyes flickered with a hint of alienation. She raised her hand slightly and said in a cold voice, "No need to be polite, sir."

"Thank you for your grace, Madam. Madam, His Majesty has granted a special decree to summon you to Zhaoyang Palace tonight to sleep with him."

Hearing this, Lu Chuyi raised a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth, "Your Majesty is fine, why did you think of me?"

Upon hearing this, the eunuch in front of the emperor's face changed slightly, but then he quickly returned to his flattering appearance and said with a smile: "Look at what you said, His Majesty has always been thinking about you!"

Hearing this, Lu Chuyi couldn't help but sneer. The laughter was crisp and pleasant, but it was a bit cold. "My father-in-law's words are really laughable."

The eunuch in front of the emperor was secretly anxious in his heart, but he still kept that unchanged smile on his face. He bowed and said, "Your Majesty, you can't say this casually. Your Majesty should hurry up and get ready and go to Zhaoyang Palace!"

Lu Chuyi chuckled, "What are you preparing for? This isn't the first time I've served you in bed. Let's go!"

"Yes!"

As the night deepened, the lights of the Zhaoyang Palace swayed gracefully in the darkness, illuminating Lu Chuyi's cold and aloof figure.

When Lu Chuyi entered, she immediately saw Xiao Xuanchen standing quietly outside the palace. She stepped forward and bowed according to etiquette, her voice cold but with a hint of tenderness: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be blessed with good health."

Xiao Xuanchen stepped forward and gently helped her up, his eyes gentle and deep.

"What's wrong? You don't look very happy?" Xiao Xuanchen asked softly, with a hint of tentativeness in his tone.

Lu Chuyi smiled slightly, and there were too many unspeakable emotions hidden in that smile. She said softly: "How dare I? It's just that your majesty's sudden favor caught me off guard."

Xiao Xuanchen understood what was going on when he heard this. He gently stroked Lu Chuyi's cheek, trying to soothe the slight sadness between her brows: "I was negligent. From now on, I will double compensate you."

Lu Chuyi smiled slightly, and her smile was very forced. "I dare not. I am really not unhappy."

Xiao Xuanchen no longer cared so much and said with a smile: "Okay! Then smile and show it to me." Xiao Xuanchen reached out and gently stroked her face.

Then he picked her up and walked into the bedroom. The flickering candlelight reflected the overlapping figures of the two. Xiao Xuanchen gently stroked Lu Chuyi's hair and whispered. Lu Chuyi still maintained her coldness.
