The Legend of the Concubine in the Harem

After the eldest sister passed away, several younger sisters who had originally come to the palace just to visit her were temporarily unable to go out. They were neither concubines nor ladies of honor, so they had to temporarily stay in the Cining Palace.

Xie Yuzhen let Chunfen go with her under the pretext of letting Concubine Deng, a good sister, take care of her younger sister.

Not long after returning to Ningshou Palace, the emperor also hurried over.

Xie Yuzhen, who was leaning on the chaise longue without any hurry, sat up and said, "Why is your majesty here? I thought you wanted to spend more time with the Duke of England..."

The emperor glared at her and waved his hand to indicate that she didn't need to stand up to greet him. He then said to Xie Yuzhen unhappily, "Didn't we discuss this before? Why did Xianming change his mind at the last minute?"

British Duke?

What a boring old man! If the emperor had not been really afraid of Deng Si's panel, he would not bother to deal with him. Seeing that Deng Si had entered the palace and was placed under the supervision of Empress Dowager Hu, even if she noticed it and used the ability of "bad review", he could also destroy the panel or simply get rid of the unfortunate girl before the effect of the bad review became more and more serious.

When he wanted to play court games with others, people like the Duke of England were only valuable as toys. If he didn't want to play anymore, he would just overturn the table and the other party would be helpless.

But now, compared to this, the emperor was more curious about what Xie Yuzhen was thinking and why he suddenly changed his mind.

Xie Yuzhen looked at the emperor's expression with innocent eyes. Although the man raised his eyebrows deliberately and pretended to be angry, the corners of his lips were gently raised and his eyes were full of interest... Xie Yuzhen took a look at him and knew that this man was sick again.

"I did make an agreement with Your Majesty that after the Fourth Miss enters the palace, I will slowly coax and teach her, but..." Xie Yuzhen leaned forward to make room for the emperor. After he sat down, she pulled out a newly written letter from under the pillow, "You might as well take a look at this."

However, she deliberately imitated Concubine Xian's handwriting and wrote a "secret letter" before going to Changrui Palace to attend the funeral. There was only one thing in it - it was Concubine Xian Deng's instruction to Deng Qingsui that if anything happened to her, she should be given a "bad review" immediately.

"Does she really mean that?" How could the emperor not recognize that the letter paper and the ink were written not long ago, and the person who wrote the letter did not put much effort into imitating it. The fonts were similar but the spirit was different. At the turn of each character, it was somewhat like the emperor's usual font. This was clearly a fake letter that was improvised by Xie Yuzhen, who he had taught himself.

He clearly didn't believe it, and Xie Yuzhen also clearly didn't need him to believe that the secret letter was real: "Why would I lie to you about this?"

"I did receive a secret letter from Sister Xianfei, but it was written several years ago, and I don't know what it was made of. It might have been stored for too long, and it would have turned into dust in a short time if someone held it in their hands. Even if I have sharp eyes, I could only write down these few sentences..." Xie Yuzhen made up excuses.

The emperor believed it with his own eyes - Concubine Xian had a dark history of growing exotic plants without telling her father and the emperor. Even the emperor didn't know how many she had kept, so he could only destroy the most important ones first. After hearing what Xie Yuzhen said, he just thought that Concubine Xian Deng had made a pre-emptive plan for the secret letter to be intercepted or found out, and arranged to destroy the letter in advance.

"Your Majesty, how does that magical object work? Do you have any way to deal with it?" Xie Yuzhen asked worriedly.

The emperor did not answer immediately, but looked at her for a while and asked, "Does Xianming have no idea about it?"

Xie Yuzhen paused for a moment as he was waving the round fan - oh my, this bastard stopped pretending, it turned out that he already knew that he had a system.

But Xie Yuzhen was not afraid either: "I do have a plan. Since the death of the commoner Shen, Wen Baolin has been ill, but it is caused by mental illness. She is the person Shen cares about the most. It seems that there is nothing unusual except some mental illness. If your majesty asks me how to solve this "bad review" dilemma, I can only follow the previous example and ask your majesty for a few guards, sneak into the Cining Palace at night, and give the fourth lady a sword in the neck."

Shen Nanliu is the owner of the system and she hates Wen Baolin deeply and has targeted him several times. But after her death, the system has not come out to cause trouble again. With this precedent, why don't we kill Fourth Miss Deng as well.

"You are very brave to think of this." The emperor sighed and shook his head, "Is there no better way?"

Xie Yu sincerely said that she not only dared to think, but also dared to do it. She smiled and said, "The magical object on Fourth Miss Deng is something I have never heard of or seen before. Naturally, there is no other plan except to eliminate it directly. If Your Majesty is really worried, then I will have to risk my life to make your wish come true."

You know you have a system in your body, but you are still not satisfied and want to take the opportunity to get other things. Bah!

Go and dream your big dream!

After Xie Yuzhen finished speaking, she gently covered the lower half of her face with a round fan and frowned: "Your Majesty, instead of forcing me to come up with a solution, why don't you first tell me how this magical item will work?"

The emperor saw that she was not impatient at all, but she did not respond to his question. He knew that he had been bored again, so he stopped arguing. "I am not very clear about how this thing works. I only know that last time, concubines in the palace frequently had miscarriages and illnesses, and some died directly... The weather in the capital was also very abnormal during that period, and there were two small earthquakes. Fortunately, no casualties were caused. After half a month, there were sudden heavy rains in the south of the Yangtze River, and the river bank burst the dike, causing a flood."

"So, we probably have about half a month to investigate?" Xie Yuzhen thought for a moment and asked, "Your Majesty, why don't you ask the imperial doctors to check the pulses of all the sisters in the palace, as well as the heirs of the throne."

As she spoke, she thought of Concubine Xu who had just had an abortion: "Especially with A Yuan, she..."

If the impact of the "bad reviews" starts with the concubines in the emperor's harem, then Concubine Xu, whose health is already seriously damaged, will be in danger.

Thinking of this, Xie Yu frowned sincerely. She raised her hand and rubbed her brows: "Your Majesty, let's kill Deng Si."

The emperor couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "You and Concubine Xu have a deep relationship."

"It's normal that Your Majesty doesn't understand the friendship between us women." Xie Yuzhen rolled his eyes at him.

"Aren't you afraid that I will be offended?" asked the emperor.

Xie Yuzhen felt that this man was sick, and couldn't help but worry about Concubine Xu, so she hardened her tone: "I was just being nice to A Yuan, but Your Majesty is jealous. Your Majesty is nice to so many sisters, why don't you think about whether I am jealous?"

"If you are really willing to be jealous of me, I will be happier."

Xie Yuzhen slapped the round fan on the couch and said, "Xiao Xi! Go and get a jar of vinegar. I want to feed His Majesty the vinegar myself!"

"You're being unreasonable." The emperor said aggrievedly.

Xie Yuzhen raised her eyebrows and said, "Either I will go and kill Deng Si right now, or Your Majesty, you can deal with the things on her body yourself. No discussion!"
