In Xianfu Palace, because Jingren Palace was closed and only people could enter and not exit, Shen Meizhuang did not receive any news. She was touching her belly and still imagining her future life.

Although the emperor was afraid of Wen Shichu, when he thought of Shen Meizhuang's pregnancy, he decided to let Wen Shichu take care of her first and wait until Shen Meizhuang gave birth.

An Lingrong went back at night and sent someone to Xianfu Palace to report that Concubine Xi had died.

Shen Meizhuang was indeed frightened, but this time Wen Shichu did not castrate himself and waited by the side.

Shen Meizhuang gave birth to the princess after a long period of difficult labor, but she did not die.

Everyone went forward to congratulate her, and Yunlu knelt down again.

The Queen looked at Guarjia Wenyuan with dissatisfaction because Guarjia Wenyuan did not report it in advance.

Guarjia Wenyuan smiled back and said that he didn't know either.

The emperor saw Yunlu kneeling down again and said, "Except the queen, everyone else can go."

Guaerjia Wenyuan looked at Yunlu, Yunlu nodded, and Guaerjia Wenyuan knelt down to bid farewell to the emperor and empress and left.

After returning to Chuxiu Palace, Yunlu waited for half an hour before returning.

After coming in, Yunlu recounted what she had reported.

Yunlu had no idea how the emperor punished her, so the emperor asked Yunlu to leave first.

Guarjia Wenyuan took Yunlu's hand and said, "Thank you for your hard work. I feel really bad for always letting you risk your life to report it."

Yun Lu said firmly: "My lady, I have only one life. As long as it is for you, I will go through fire and water and die without hesitation."

The two talked for a while, and Guaerjia Wenyuan asked Yunlu to go back and rest.

Today, at the morning court, Guaerjia Wenyuan's father, Guaerjia Emin, wrote a letter to impeach Zhen Yuandao.

Zhen Yuandao's crimes include secretly taking the daughter of a guilty minister as his maid, and sending the daughter of a guilty minister into the palace. His intention is to commit the serious crime of deceiving the emperor.

The emperor immediately arrested Zhen Yuandao and put him in prison for interrogation.

The emperor was worrying about how to execute Zhen Yuandao so that he could get rid of the cuckold on his head.

Guaerjiamin immediately produced the evidence of his crime, and the emperor's attitude towards Guaerjiamin became better.

Seeing the emperor's attitude, all the ministers who had previously followed Zhen Yuandao's instructions and wanted to impeach Guaerjia Emin put their thoughts aside.

When Concubine Xi died, the person who was most anxious was the Fourth Prince Hongli.

As Zhen Huan's adopted son, Hongli had heard some of the crimes Zhen Huan had committed.

The emperor had never liked Hongli before, and he liked him even less now.

Guaerjia Wenyuan took the opportunity to show her goodwill to Hongli. Hongli saw hope, and Guaerjia Wenyuan saw the future prosperity of the family.

When Zhen Yurao, the concubine of Wanzhou, heard that Zhen Yuandao had been imprisoned, she rushed to the Yangxin Palace to plead for mercy.

The emperor looked at Zhen Yurao coldly and said, "Your elder sister is promiscuous and has an affair with someone else. It's all because of your father's poor parenting. If you plead for mercy again, I will immediately sentence Zhen Huan to death in the cold palace and drown the twins."

Zhen Yurao's face was full of tears. She looked at the emperor in disbelief and asked, "Didn't you say you loved me? Why did you treat my family like this?"

The emperor leaned back on the throne and said, "I love you. If you serve me well, I will promote you to a higher position. But I will not be partial. Your father has committed a crime and he must be punished."

Zhen Yurao looked at the emperor who was high above her, and it seemed as if at this moment she finally understood that Zhen Yurao was a commoner and the emperor was a monarch.

In the past, Zhen Yurao always treated the emperor as her brother-in-law and had no respect for him at all.

In addition, the emperor exiled the Zhen family, and Zhen Yurao was dissatisfied with the emperor.

The emperor was so merciless that Zhen Yurao felt scared and knelt down and said, "I will serve the emperor well and live up to his kindness."

The emperor was somewhat satisfied, yet somewhat dissatisfied.

Zhen Yurao's pride is gone. At this moment, Zhen Yurao is like all the women in the harem, and she no longer has that trait.

The emperor was a little annoyed and waved his hand: "You can leave."

Zhen Yurao knelt down again and said, "I'll take my leave."
