Quick Wear: Saving the Sickly and Paranoid Villain

Chapter 197: Hypocritical Prince VS Sickly Concubine 16

Such a plot had also happened in the original owner's previous life. The original owner, who was gentle and simple in character, did not know how to defend herself, and was eventually banished to the cold palace. At the same time, she had to fast and chant Buddhist scriptures for three years for the emperor's son who died in the womb of my concubine!

Then, the original owner's hellish life began.

After being confined to her house, Concubine Shu often went to Qinyan Palace to visit the original owner. Every time Concubine Shu left, the original owner would be covered in wounds, while the Queen would openly or secretly withhold the original owner's money.

After being confined to the house, the original owner didn’t even have a full meal.

The original owner was suffering, she held on to a glimmer of hope, thinking that her father and mother would find a way to save her, she had done nothing wrong, she had a clear conscience!

But she waited and waited, but never got any news from them. Did her parents get into trouble because of her fault? She thought so while lying on the straw-covered, stinking room.

She would never know that after she was banished to the cold palace, the Prime Minister and the Third Prince soon rebelled. They exaggerated the original owner's misery and even made up a story that Emperor Jian'an forced the original owner to defile the palace, and portrayed Emperor Jian'an as a tyrant who disguised himself as a cultivator.

After Emperor Jian'an began to practice Taoism, he did do many wrong things. The people in the Lingnan area complained and were most dissatisfied.

Therefore, after the third prince shouted the slogan of clearing the court and serving the world, people from many regions resolutely joined in, and soon the rebellion began in full swing.

In fact, the Prime Minister had to rebel because Emperor Jian'an was suspicious and hostile to him, the prince's grandfather and his faction had always been at odds with him, and the most favored eighth prince also refused to marry his eldest daughter.

No matter which of these two people becomes emperor, he will die. No, he may even be deposed while Emperor Jian'an is still in power.

If he allowed the situation to develop, he would surely die, but resistance might bring him greater wealth and glory.

The third prince and the prime minister are in the same boat. Under normal circumstances, the emperor could be the crown prince or the eighth prince, but it would definitely be him. No matter which of the two becomes the emperor, his fate will not be good.

The third prince's grandfather was a victorious general with high prestige in the army. The prime minister was very prestigious among the civil officials and had a good image in the hearts of the people.

As a result, the third prince and the prime minister had the same idea and they quickly established an alliance. The third prince agreed to marry the prime minister's eldest daughter as his queen after the success.

But the male protagonist's halo is strong. In just one month, the Eighth Prince led his troops to defeat the Third Prince and quell the rebellion. It was also because of this time that the Eighth Prince's prestige was unprecedentedly high.

In June of the same year, Emperor Jian'an dismissed the crown prince despite all advice and made the eighth prince the crown prince. The empress was deeply shocked and committed suicide, and the crown prince was imprisoned in the palace.

The following plot is what everyone knows.

As for Xu Meir, she had sensed something was wrong as early as when Concubine Zhou asked her to go with her to see Concubine Shu.

Going to see Concubine Shu is undoubtedly intended to target Concubine Shu's child, and then frame her and make her fight with Concubine Shu, while the person behind the scenes reaps the benefits.

Through 736, Xu Meir learned early on the escape route of the man who had harmed Concubine Shu.

So she specifically asked Yun'er to inform several honest and reliable eunuchs in Qinyan Palace that the imperial concubine wanted to make snacks and needed dew and flour. She asked them to go there to collect dew, and the eunuchs could also ask their friends to collect dew together. A bottle of dew cost one tael of silver.

After the news came out, many eunuchs appeared in that place.

At the same time, everyone in the palace knew that the commander of the Imperial Guards, Lin Zhi, had saved her life, so she specifically ordered another first-class palace maid, Wu'er, to bring a large number of people and jewels and delicacies to reward Lin Zhi in a dignified manner.

After receiving the reward, Lin Zhi will certainly come over to express his gratitude. At this time, the palace maid only needs to lead him to a certain place according to the truth.

The thief originally wanted to escape in the chaos, but he didn't expect that there were so many eunuchs on his original escape route. In a hurry, he changed his route, but he collided head-on with Lin Zhi. In a panic, he ran away in a hurry.

The leader of the Imperial Guards was naturally powerful, and he quickly caught the thief. After knowing that His Majesty was in Concubine Shu's bedroom and that Concubine Shu's distress might be related to the thief, he took his men to Concubine Shu's bedroom.

In the end, things are what we see.

That night, Concubine Shu woke up from her coma and cried, saying that she wanted to see His Majesty. The palace maid had no choice but to go look for her.

Emperor Jian'an doted on Concubine Shu after all. He soon arrived at Concubine Shu's palace. Concubine Shu's face was pale, and big tears fell from her bright eyes. She called out mournfully, "Your Majesty."

Emperor Jian'an hugged her lovingly and said, "My beloved concubine is fine."

Concubine Shu looked up and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to say to you."

Emperor Jian'an comforted her and said, "My beloved concubine, just speak frankly."

Concubine Shu: "When I was in trouble, the Imperial Concubine was standing on my left side, but the force that pushed me down was on my right side, so the one who hurt me was not the Imperial Concubine."

"Your Majesty, please help me." Concubine Shu sobbed and looked extremely pitiful.

It wasn't that she wanted to speak for the Imperial Concubine. First, she had indeed felt that the direction of the force was opposite to the Imperial Concubine's position.

Secondly, she knew the punishment that His Majesty originally wanted to impose on the Imperial Concubine, but in the end the Prime Minister did not continue, so she knew that the Imperial Concubine could not be brought down for the time being. In addition, Emperor Jian'an obviously wanted to discipline the Prime Minister, and she wanted to pretend to be a good person in front of Xu Meir, so it was okay for her to let her go for the time being.

Third, she and the queen had a long-standing grudge, and she wanted to take this opportunity to punish the queen. Her son was gone, and she was more heartbroken than anyone else.

Originally, Concubine Shu was trying to forge evidence, but who would have thought that this matter was actually related to the Queen!

Under severe interrogation, the palace maid quickly confessed everything, and then revealed Concubine Zhou, who was then arrested and imprisoned. At the beginning, she was much tougher than the palace maids. Although she looked so petite, she gritted her teeth and said nothing.

Three days later, she was suddenly willing to speak. She pointed out that it was the Queen who instructed her to do these things, and then she hanged herself.

The Queen was angry and anxious but helpless when faced with the accusations. Later, she found evidence to prove that the matter had nothing to do with her. Although Emperor Jian'an did not punish her, she felt a big knot in her heart.

Afterwards, Concubine Shu in the harem madly targeted the Queen, and Emperor Jian'an in the court madly suppressed the Prime Minister. For a time, everyone was in panic.
