The palace maid died of poisoning and could not be saved. The emperor ordered a thorough investigation, and in the end they only found a young eunuch in the imperial kitchen who was responsible.

Meng Jingxian was shocked into premature labor and gave birth to a son in the palace under the care of the Queen.

In order to compensate Meng Jingxian, the emperor ignored Prince Guo's objection and made Meng Jingxian his legitimate wife.

Huanbi was suddenly pressed down on top of Meng Jingxian, feeling depressed and crying every day.

Jiang Caiping in the palace, on the other hand, was filled with joy and thought: Concubine Yu, your hard days have just begun.

The war broke out again, and the emperor sent Prince Guo to the front line.

In the harem, the queen was not imprisoned early like in her previous life, but was still the high and mighty queen.

The Dzungar Khan came to pay homage to the emperor, and the emperor hosted a banquet in his honor.

The clan members and concubines from the harem were all at the table, including the queen.

As soon as Moge entered the palace, Jiang Caiping noticed that Zhen Huan looked strange.

Jiang Caiping pretended not to know and lowered her head as if she didn't see it.

Princess Longyue still smashed the nine-ring gift in public. Zhen Huan thought she was smart and was relieving the emperor's worries, but it made Moge want to take revenge.

At the banquet, the Queen was present, as were the Imperial Noble Consort, the Noble Consort, and all the concubines.

Zhen Huan was a concubine, but she picked up the wine glass, poured the wine on the ground and toasted Moge with clever words.

He also gave Longyue some advice, causing Longyue to fall nine rings in a row.

Princess Longyue, who broke the Nine-Ring Chain, was too young for Moge to do anything about it, but Zhen Huan was targeted by Moge.

Jiang Caiping watched as Moge caught up with Zhen Huan, but did not go over to watch the show.

Jiang Caiping had seen this scene before after she became a soul in her previous life.

What's more, Xia Qi was watching the two of them not far away.

Moge proposed to marry Zhen Huan, and the emperor summoned Zhen Huan to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.

The two stayed in there for a long time, and the emperor decided to send Zhen Huan to marry.

On the day of the marriage, Prince Guo led his men and horses to chase after her outside the city.

When the emperor heard this, he became furious and overturned the memorial on the table.

Concubine Jing took Longyue to the Yangxin Palace to plead with the emperor, and Concubine Duan also advised the emperor to release Zhen Huan. Everyone thought that Zhen Huan was in the Bitong Academy in the Old Summer Palace.

The emperor still took Zhen Huan back to the palace and did not punish her.

When Prince Guo caught up with the marriage team, he found out that he had been fooled. He immediately submitted a petition to apologize and asked to guard the border to atone for his sins. However, the emperor promoted Prince Guo's title to a higher level, and Prince Guo became Prince Guo.

During these three years, the emperor's suspicion grew.

Xia Qian took the letter sent back by Prince Guo. After reading it, the emperor's heart sank.

Prince Guo was recalled to the capital, and when he returned he met Zhen Huan, and they looked at each other with tears in their eyes.

Within three years, Jiang Caiping became Concubine Ying, and Zhen Huan was restored to Concubine Xi.

The emperor held a banquet with Prince Guo and asked, "Yunli, did you and Concubine Xi have an affair?"

Prince Guo pretended to be drunk and took all the blame on himself, and the emperor scolded him for his disloyalty.

Jiang Caiping knew that it was time to let the emperor know the truth, so she revealed the secret of the twins, a boy and a girl, to Xia Qian through someone else.

The emperor was so angry that he almost had a stroke. He looked at the three drops of blood in the left basin that were immiscible, and then looked at the three drops of blood in the right basin that were miscible.

The emperor overturned both basins and was shaking with anger.

The next day, the emperor summoned Zhen Huan.

After slapping Zhen Huan in the face, the emperor looked at her in silence.

Zhen Huan asked, "I wonder what I did wrong."

The emperor still didn't say anything. After looking at it for a long time, he handed the paper bag to Zhen Huan.

Seeing Zhen Huan's puzzled look, the emperor said, "This is a generous gift for Prince Guo. You give it to him on my behalf."

Zhen Huan defended Prince Guo, but the emperor said nothing. He only said one last sentence: "I must execute the Seventeenth Prince. I am confident that you can do it. If this is accomplished, the Sixth Prince will be the Crown Prince."

Zhen Huan lowered her head and took the paper bag with shaking hands.
