I swept the harem by pretending to be weak

Chapter 22: Encounter in the Imperial Garden

"Do you think I should report my illness like the virtuous concubine? I'm too lazy to deal with those chattering women." Ai Ziyi had nothing to do and ran to Huailiu Pavilion again.

Liu Zhirou also got used to her coming.

When there is no palace fighting, life in the palace is actually a bit boring. Liu Zhirou is not qualified to participate in the palace fighting now, and she is afraid of running into Concubine Shu when she goes out. She can only stay in her own little pavilion for the time being.

She was thinking about the huge white fox shadow she had seen in the emperor's palace before, but she couldn't figure it out. She just vaguely felt that this matter seemed not as easy as she had originally imagined, and it was unlikely to dominate the world by relying solely on fitness skills.

What's worse is that she has already mastered the fitness technique she drew before, but the energy bar is still a little short of the mark, so she can't draw it a second time, which makes her a little annoyed.

"But if you report your illness, the eunuch will remove your name badge and you won't have the chance to see the emperor." Liu Zhirou reminded lightly.

Liu Zhirou had not seen the emperor since the beginning of her concern. Ai Ziyi had gone to the emperor's bed twice, but most of the time they just chatted under the quilt.

Ai Ziyi could be said to be quite satisfied with this. She was not like other concubines who were always anxious to give birth to an heir to the throne. She only hoped that the gentle emperor could pay more attention to her.

"That's true. Well, what can we do? Forget it. Aren't you tired of staying in a place like this all day? Let's go out and have some fun."

"I've been in the palace for such a long time, but I'm still not familiar with the environment outside Weiyang Palace!" Ai Ziyi said excitedly.

"let's go!"

Liu Zhirou had some doubts at first, but couldn't stand her pestering and agreed.

But who could have expected that enemies would meet on a narrow road.

"Your concubine pays her respects to the Queen Concubine Shu. May the Queen Concubine Shu live in peace and happiness." Liu Zhirou was in a very devastated mood when she and Ai Ziyi bowed down.

Even if she used her knees to think, she knew that Concubine Shu would never have any good feelings towards him.

She was sent to the palace thanks to Concubine Shu's family, but after entering the palace she was assigned to Concubine Xian's palace. After such a long time, she has never missed her old master or asked about Concubine Shu.

Logically speaking, this was not something unimaginable. After all, it was not Liu Zhirou herself who was eager to enter the palace. She entered the palace because of the people from Concubine Shu's family who wanted to give Concubine Shu a child as soon as possible.

After entering the palace, she was a small concubine in the deep palace. Even if she had the will, she was powerless and could only go with the flow like duckweed.

However, unlike what is taught in books, people generally are lenient with themselves and strict with others.

Concubine Shu probably would not have thought that Liu Zhirou was in a difficult situation.

"I was wondering which sister it was. It turns out to be the new Concubine Lan and Concubine Liu. Both sisters are very beautiful, but they have not learned the rules very well. Even the way they perform etiquette is not proper. In order to prevent you from offending the nobles again in the future, you will be punished to kneel here for an hour." Concubine Shu just glanced at them and made a judgment on the two of them.

The emperor was standing next to him. He was probably tired from handling government affairs, so he took a break and accompanied Concubine Shu to visit the Imperial Garden.

Of course, he also saw this conflict that was just for no reason, but he had no intention of intervening.

Ai Ziyi raised her head in dissatisfaction: "Your Majesty said that my etiquette is not good enough, but I have always followed the teachings of the nanny. What is wrong with that? I dare to ask for your advice."

"How dare you! How dare you, a little talent like you, offend Her Majesty the Concubine!" Before Her Majesty the Concubine could even open her mouth, the palace maid accompanying her immediately reprimanded her.

"No, no, no, I think Concubine Lan has a straightforward personality and is a pretty good person. The reason why she came here and offended me again is probably because someone around her instigated her." Concubine Shu looked calm and composed. "What do you think, Concubine Liu?"

Liu Zhirou's heart sank; the flames of war had finally come to her.

But since Concubine Shu had taken the first step, she didn't care about what happened next.

At the beginning, Liu Zhirou's grandfather was a barefoot doctor who had practiced medicine for many years and had considerable experience. Liu Zhirou grew up under his lap and had a certain understanding of medical skills, especially traditional Chinese medicine.

Her grandfather once warned her that if a person comes to see a doctor and he looks like he has a certain disease and he feels like he has that disease, you cannot directly judge that he has that disease. When treating the disease, you must be extremely careful no matter what, because it is a matter of life and death.

So even though my grandfather was a barefoot doctor, he often highly respected the technology of big hospitals and still had to have CT scans done.

Liu Zhirou did not choose the medical path later, so this remark had little impact on her, but it came in handy now.

She now has almost perfect control over her body's tissues.

She personally felt that the result of practicing this fitness technique to a high level was a bit like the famous life return in One Piece. The only difference was that the life return was a skill that was sublimated after practicing the six styles to the extreme. However, what she used was a fitness technique that was drawn from a gashapon machine and had nothing to do with the six styles.

But it doesn't matter. It's just because her physical fitness is limited and can't be compared with those monsters in One Piece, so the life return effect is not that strong.

But it was enough for her to disguise.

Liu Zhirou felt a little guilty, but this guilt was not directed at the arrogant Concubine Shu, but at her grandfather in her previous life.

Her grandfather taught her those medical books in the hope that she could use them to strengthen her body and protect herself, but now she wants to do the exact opposite and use them to fool people.

If she still had the same physical fitness as before, she wouldn't be able to put these into practice even if she knew them. But now things are different. Perfectly controlling the body is really a very buggy ability.

"I dare not, I..." Liu Zhirou said with a trembling voice.

She gently summoned her energy bar, and when she found that the energy bar was fully full, she leaned down with satisfaction.

When Concubine Shu saw this, she just smiled coldly.

This girl is a little naive to think she can get away with it by pretending to be sick.

Ai Ziyi quickly supported Liu Zhirou who was beside her.

"Madam Shufei, Zhirou is not feeling well. Please be kind enough to let me take her back."

"Oh, really? She just happened to fall ill at this time. I have an imperial physician with me, so I can check her on the spot." Concubine Shu looked indifferent.

Liu Zhirou finally understood what it meant to die.

The situation was no longer under her control. She didn't want to make a real mistake and be punished, and also not be caught by Concubine Shu, so she had to scheme against the other party to death.

"What's going on?" The emperor finally noticed the farce here.

The imperial physician hurried over carrying a box and squatted aside to take Liu Zhirou's pulse.
