The eldest sister was reborn and the younger sister traveled through time. I just want to survive.

Feeling the murderous gaze of Concubine Xian, Yan Muxi raised the box in her hand and said, "The candies are so fragrant and sweet. Sister Concubine Xian, would you like to have a few more?"

The virtuous concubine's chest heaved violently, and suddenly she rushed over here angrily.

Yu Shui, who was standing by, was on guard to prevent the virtuous concubine from getting angry and causing harm to her young lady.

But Concubine Xian did not lose control as everyone expected. She stopped two steps away from Yan Muxi, grabbed a piece of candy from the box and put it in her mouth. After eating one, she grabbed another one and put five or six candies in a row into her mouth before stopping.

The taste of the toffee was so special that the virtuous concubine, who had recognized the truth, could no longer deceive herself. She stared at Yan Muxi and asked with gritted teeth, "You have been playing tricks on me from the beginning, right?"

Yan Muxi spread her hands, "What are you saying, sister Xianfei? We are all sisters. I gave my sister candy because I saw how pitiful she was crying. I didn't expect that I had good intentions but ended up doing something bad. I was misunderstood as a bad person by my sister. It's really unfair!"

"You're going too far!" Concubine Xian raised her hand in anger, but when she thought of the suffering she had endured last night, she quickly hid her hand behind her back.

She had lived for more than ten years and had always been pampered by her elders, and had never been teased or bullied like this.

Turning her head, she saw the sneers on the faces of Concubine De and the others. She felt embarrassed and wronged, and she managed to hold back her tears.

She turned her head and looked at Yu Jinzhou aggrievedly, "Your Majesty~"

Xianfei had a rough appearance, and her puffy face and coquettish appearance did not look good. Yu Jinzhou suppressed his annoyance and coaxed her: "Don't worry, my beloved concubine, I will thoroughly investigate the poisoning of my beloved concubine and seek justice for her."

The emperor determined the outcome with just one sentence. The poisoning of Concubine Xian had nothing to do with Concubine Yan. Concubine Xian had made a big fuss by mobilizing a large number of people, which not only made her a laughing stock, but also made the other concubines realize that the new Concubine Yan was not someone to be trifled with.

I'm afraid the situation in the harem is about to change.

There were still ministers waiting in the imperial study in front to discuss the matter of asking North Vietnam for help. Yu Jinzhou was the first to leave Jinxiu Palace and gave Yan Muwan a deep look before leaving.

Yan Muwan's heart was beating wildly when she was looked at. She had already been as biased towards Concubine Yan as possible and had also sent people to the Qianqing Palace. Wasn't that enough?

After the other concubines left, Yan Muwan tried her best to comfort Yan Muxi, "Although Concubine Xian is a bit arrogant, she is not a bad person. If she offends you, you need to bear with her."

Yan Muxi looked straight at her. "What position do you have to persuade me to forgive others? We are sisters. Shouldn't the Queen protect her family more?"

Yan Muwan didn't expect Yan Muxi to say this. They were indeed sisters and former family members.

But now that she had entered the palace, how could she still have a pure sisterly relationship? Besides, there wasn't much affection between her and her second sister.

"I am the Queen, and it is my duty to maintain harmony in the harem."

Yan Muxi smiled and said, "Maintaining the peace of the harem is the responsibility of the Queen, but it has nothing to do with me, Yan Muxi. We were once a family, and the Queen should understand my character. I didn't like to be wronged and accommodate others in the past, and I won't like it in the future. So I'm sorry that I can't agree to the Queen's advice."

"You," Yan Muwan wanted to argue, but she didn't have the courage to speak out what she was thinking, and finally left in disappointment.

When only the master and the servant were left in the palace, Dong Yu sighed, "How come the Sixth Miss has become nothing like before now that she is the Queen? When she was in the mansion, the Sixth Miss was as timid as a rabbit and didn't even dare to look at the young lady. Now she always acts like the Queen, and the sisters are not as intimate as outsiders."

Yan Muxi disagreed with Dongyu's words, "Sixth sister hasn't changed at all, she's still the same as before. It's precisely because she hasn't changed that she wants to hold up her appearance because of her inherent inferiority and cowardice."

"Miss, don't be sad. Even if they are close relatives, you can't force their relationship, whether good or bad." Yu Shui advised.

She was sold by her biological parents for ten taels of silver. She had six brothers and sisters, but her parents didn't like her. She was beaten and scolded more often than she had meals. Her relatives were not as good as strangers in the dark guard camp, so she never believed that blood ties meant true love.

Yan Muxi smiled and said, "Yushui, which eye of yours saw me sad? I am a very cold-hearted young lady and will not be sad for someone who has nothing to do with me."

Dongyu opened his mouth and swallowed back his rebuttal.

If the young lady was cold-hearted, she would not have given all her wealth to her ex-husband, and she would not have come to Luodu to suffer.

In her opinion, the young lady was not cold-hearted, but rather very affectionate, otherwise they would not be willing to follow her so wholeheartedly.

Seeing Yan Muxi's tired expression, Yu Shui glanced at the clepsydra and said, "Miss, you are weak. Lie down on the bed and rest for a while! I will go and watch the palace maids boil the medicine."

Yan Muxi stopped her and said, "Don't watch the small kitchen. No one dares to tamper with my medicine."

Except for the three of them, master and servant, the entire Jinxiu Palace is full of Yu Jinzhou's spies. The few birds flying in and out every day are all under Yu Jinzhou's control. As long as Yu Jinzhou doesn't want her to die, no one can harm her.

Rather than being persecuted, she was more worried about how long Yu Jinzhou could endure his suspicion. Last night, she used the dispute with Concubine Xian to temporarily dispel Yu Jinzhou's idea of ​​taking her.

Yu Jinzhou probably wouldn't dare to touch Concubine Xian until he figured out how she got tricked. But she couldn't guarantee that Yu Jinzhou's suspicion would always be able to suppress his bestiality.

In the next few days, Yan Muxi stayed in Jinxiu Palace to recuperate, and Yu Jinzhou was busy dealing with the envoys from North Vietnam, and never set foot in the harem again.

It was not until Dafeng was determined to reject Beiyue's request for help that Yu Jinzhou began to set foot in the harem. He first came to Jinxiu Palace to have dinner with Yan Muxi, but he did not stay for her to sleep, using the excuse that she had not fully recovered.

"The emperor went to Concubine Jia's Biluxuan, and Concubine Meng also lives in Biluxuan. Tsk tsk tsk, we won't know which one the emperor will favor until tomorrow morning." Dong Yu's face was full of gossip. Life in the deep palace was boring, and only a little gossip could kill time.

"No need to wait until tomorrow morning, the one who will be favored is Jiapin." Yan Muxi said with certainty.

"Miss, how do you know that the emperor will favor Concubine Jia? I see that Concubine Meng has bright eyes and white teeth, and she is cute and clever. Who knows, maybe it will be Concubine Meng who will be favored tonight!"

"How about we make a bet?"

Dong Yu chuckled, "Forget about the bet! I have never won a single bet with the young lady. Even if I am a stubborn donkey, I should learn my lesson."

The next morning, Dongyu learned that the emperor's favorite was Concubine Jia, and she was once again impressed by her young lady's foresight.

While helping Yan Muxi wash up, she asked in a low voice, "Miss, can you tell me how you knew that the emperor would favor Concubine Jia last night?"

Yan Muxi's eyes were filled with sarcasm, "My young lady, I not only know that the emperor favored Jiapin last night, but I also know that he will favor Jiapin tonight and tomorrow night."

Yu Jinzhou rejected Beiyue's request for help on the surface, but he must have other plans behind the scenes. Jiapin's brother was the commander of the imperial guards and the most capable general under Yu Jinzhou. If he wanted to send someone's brother to fight for him, he must have shown him more favor.
