Quick Wear: Saving the Sickly and Paranoid Villain

[Sister Mei'er, your mission is still the same as before, to eliminate the villain's black value. ]

[By the way, this world can display favorability and blackened values. I will report any changes in the values~]

"Okay." After the plot introduction, Xu Meir slowly closed her eyes. After all the torment tonight, she began to feel tired.

After a while, the bright moonlight shone through the window into the bedroom, and the beauty on the bed had fallen asleep.

On the second day, gifts from the Emperor, Empress, and even the Empress Dowager who had been bedridden for several months were delivered. The boxes of gorgeous treasures and fine silks made many people jealous.

One after another, concubines came to Qinyan Palace to visit Xu Meir. After meeting them several times, Xu Meir felt tired. Some concubines came in the name of concern but were actually testing her. Although she pretended well every time, she couldn't help but get bored after a long time.

Therefore, Xu Meir declined many visits on the grounds that her injuries were too serious to allow her to see anyone, and was able to recuperate quietly in her bedroom.

The emperor visited Xu Meir once on the night of her accident and never went there again, but he kept giving her gifts. The empress also visited her twice afterwards and of course gave her a lot of rewards.

The Prime Minister naturally also knew about the Imperial Concubine's injury. On the third day, the Prime Minister's wife came to the palace. This time Xu Meir could not refuse and had to meet her.

"Greetings to the Imperial Concubine." The Prime Minister's wife bowed toward the curtain after entering the bedroom.

At this time, there were only mother and daughter in the bedroom, and all other palace servants had left.

The voice of the person behind the curtain was cold: "Mother is here."

The Prime Minister's wife said with a bit of grievance in her voice: "Mei'er, are you holding a grudge against your mother?"

Xu Meir: “No.”

"Then why are you so cold to your mother? You used to be very close to her."

"Mother, why don't you ask yourself, what do you have that is worthy of my trust?"

"I..." The Prime Minister's wife paused for a moment, then quickly continued, "You are now a noble concubine. Do you know how many people envy your position? Isn't your life now better than your life in the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

"Your father and I care so much about you, how could you say such a thing?"

Xu Meir stared at the shadow in front of the curtain: "I am no longer a child. Some things do not need to be explained clearly."

The Prime Minister's wife was heartbroken: "Mei'er, what parent doesn't love their own children? You are cutting your mother's heart with a knife when you say such things."

Xu Meir's eyes gradually turned red, and her voice choked up: "Really?"

The Prime Minister's wife hurriedly said, "Of course it's true. Don't you know how your father and I treated you before you entered the palace?"

Yes, before she entered the palace, her parents treated her very well, but why did it suddenly become like this? She couldn’t understand it.

"Mother, don't lie to me." Her voice sounded shaken, but her face was expressionless under the veil. The contrast between her voice and expression was obvious, and there was a strong sense of disconnection.

The Prime Minister's wife breathed a sigh of relief, and then vowed, "Of course not."

Then she continued, "Don't forget your family while you're in the palace. Always remember where you came from. Also, you two siblings should help each other. After all, you share the same fate."

Xu Meier nodded: "My daughter understands."

"Well," the Prime Minister's wife said with satisfaction, "The time is almost up. I have to leave. You stay well in the palace."

"Okay." Xu Meir replied, with some reluctance in her voice.

The Prime Minister's wife turned and left. When she saw the palace maids and eunuchs outside the bedroom, she restrained the smile on her face and looked worried.

In a place where no one could see, Xu Meir smiled softly. No one could betray her. If no one could belong to her alone, she would rather die with him.

But that night, Lu Yuhuai successfully returned to a courtyard outside the imperial city under the cover of Xu Meir. As everyone knows, the crown prince of Daxia was unfortunately injured when he was ordered to quell a mountain bandit riot a few days ago. Although he fulfilled his mission, his injuries were serious.

The imperial doctors suggested that the prince go to another palace to recuperate. The palace had a quiet environment and several excellent hot springs, making it a great place to recuperate. Emperor Jian'an agreed without any hesitation.

Therefore, Lu Yuhuai must never let anyone find out what he was doing in the palace.

Thinking of last night, Lu Yuhuai's eyes were gloomy. That woman was really strange.

But thanks to her, he managed to escape successfully.

According to the news from his subordinates, the commander of the Imperial Guards, Lin Zhi, was beaten with 50 sticks in public and fined one year's salary. The serious injuries suffered by the imperial concubine played a big role in this.

Thinking of the words "seriously injured", he couldn't help but laugh. That woman was very good at lying.

[Favorability +2, current favorability is 20]

Lu Yuhuai gently stroked the letter paper in his hand, a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Mid-Autumn Festival would be in 7 days, and he would return to the palace on that day.
