I swept the harem by pretending to be weak

Liu Zhirou was indeed very wary of Liu Zhijin, but she was not so obsessed as to blame the other party for everything that happened to her.

Although she had not spent a very long time with Liu Zhijin, she could tell from the few times they had spent together that Liu Zhijin's abilities were not particularly high and her psychological quality was very average. She was not even qualified to be a chess piece, let alone a chess player.

Compared to her, Liu Zhijin's biggest advantage is that he knows more things, but his disadvantage is also very obvious. Liu Zhijin basically has no power to resist.

Of course, it is not ruled out that she wanted to leave the Liu family for some reason. After all, most people are not aware of Liu Zhirou's own strength. Even her personal maids Tan Xiang and Chun Tao have always thought that she is a weak and ordinary concubine.

However, if Liu Zhijin really had such a strong power, he should not have allowed Guo Jieshu to stop outside the palace. This was actually a very abnormal and irrational decision. On the one hand, it destroyed the morale of the soldiers who rebelled with him, and on the other hand, it also destroyed the calculations of those real high-level officials.

Although there are serious traces of these ghosts and gods in the palace, at least they do not exist on the surface. It is a secret known only to the upper class.

But if Guo Jieshu and the others delay for longer, to the point of affecting the operation of the entire capital city, then this secret will no longer be a secret.

Liu Zhirou didn't know what Liu Zhijin was thinking. Maybe she wanted to reveal the secret herself, but Liu Zhirou didn't think this was a very rational approach. Of course, she had no right to blame the other party. She also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity created by the other party to conduct a comprehensive and thorough search of the Liu family.

Xia He didn't know that Liu Zhirou had been secretly controlling the ghosts to wander around the entire Liu family, looking for secrets. She was still entangled in the fact that the benefactor she knew before was not the same kind as the one she discovered now.

For Xia He, the most important person is of course Liu Zhijin. After all, Liu Zhijin once saved her from danger. It is no exaggeration to say that if it weren't for Liu Zhijin at that time, Xia He might have faced death as soon as she crossed over.

However, Xia He also had very complicated feelings towards Liu Zhirou. If she didn't know that Liu Zhirou was also a time traveler like her, she might have been able to fool her as an opponent. But after knowing this, the humanistic education she had received seemed to have taken root in her heart, and the cold feudal society that she originally thought she could accept now seemed to become less easy to accept.

The most important point is that Xia He actually doesn't think there is an irreconcilable conflict between Liu Zhirou and Liu Zhijin. She still hopes to find a center point between the two, or simply to improve the relationship between the two, so that they are no longer as confrontational and tense as before.

So Xia He thought for a moment and began to persuade Liu Zhirou not to return to the palace.

Of course, Liu Zhirou did not take her advice to heart, but continued to care about everything she had experienced in the Liu family.

The area occupied by the Liu family is not very large. After Liu Ming became rich, he paid great attention to ostentation, but his background has always been criticized, and he has experienced many setbacks before. Therefore, even though the Liu family's house has been expanded a lot, it is still the original foundation after all. It is not small, but it is not very big either.

If Liu Zhirou chose to walk with her own legs and search with her own eyes, it would definitely be very strenuous, but Liu Zhirou did not need such a low-end method, so her search speed was still relatively fast. In addition, she had a certain understanding of the Liu Mansion before, so Liu Zhirou quickly determined the place where Xia He fell into the water, her own boudoir, and Liu Zhijin's original boudoir.

In her mind, this was probably the original location where the three of them traveled through time. If the coordinates of these three locations were connected together, it would form a not very regular triangle.

But what does this mean? Three points, no matter how you connect them, will definitely form a triangle. And if you look at it from a bird's-eye view, this triangle is very strange and crooked, and almost useless. Because the three sides are of different lengths, Liu Zhirou even had a hard time finding its center point.

Could it be that the error in his judgment had nothing to do with the coordinates, and the real mystery was hidden in the places they each traveled through?

Or hidden in the most important main hall?

Hidden in a relatively mysterious ancestral hall?

At this moment, Liu Zhirou's heart suddenly moved, as if a flash of inspiration came to her, which made her think of another thing: If Liu Zhijin really came through time and space in her boudoir, then the maid who was present at the time would definitely take on the responsibility of comforting the young lady!

After all, the future of almost every personal maid is closely linked to the mistress. If the mistress marries well, the maid's life will be better in the future. For example, Chuntao and Qiuju, who were by Liu Zhirou's side, became very respectable maids after she married into the palace. Qiuju even changed her name and became a concubine of the emperor. In the eyes of outsiders, this was truly a phoenix that flew up the tree and became a phoenix!

As for Liu Zhijin, she was first sent to Guo Jieshu as a concubine because Liu Zhirou offended Concubine Shu, and then she was sent to the farm, and then she disappeared from the sight of the entire Liu family for some unknown reason. The maid who followed her was undoubtedly suffering from the old crime.

The young lady they serve, knowing that the master will be angry, still goes against him. This is an unacceptable fact for any personal maid. If the young lady is favored, maybe she can just act coquettishly, but the maids will be regarded as the culprit who led the young lady astray, and they will really suffer some physical pain.

If Liu Zhijin really showed such intention, it is conceivable that the room would be filled with panic and chaos at that time.

Even if she was truly a fearless time traveler, she couldn't possibly rush to Liu Zhirou and ask her not to enter the palace for the selection despite all the scary obstacles. "Giving Liu Zhirou as a gift to a noble who could decide the fate of the Liu family" had been the basic policy of the Liu family for the past few years, and it was also the result of Liu Ming's countless efforts, and he would never allow anyone else to disrupt it.

In this case, did Liu Zhijin really travel through time in the boudoir? Maybe she took it for granted.
