The Legend of the Concubine in the Harem

run.

run.

She was like a gust of wind passing through the dark path and through the palace corridors where lights were sporadically lit.

Xie Yuzhen had long legs and a strong body. She soon left behind the several palace servants who followed her out of Kunning Palace. Although it was late at night and there was no moonlight, and everything was dark, Xie Yuzhen was still able to quickly find the shortest route from Kunning Palace to Lefu Palace from her memory. She ran all the way, the night wind filling her lungs, and the hot air she exhaled with every breath made her feel like her whole body was slowly burning.

Normally, it takes more than half an hour to walk from Kunning Palace to Lefu Palace, and about three quarters of an hour using a Luan carriage. Xie Yuzhen rushed there regardless of everything and shortened the time by half.

Since the miscarriage, Concubine Xu stayed in the east hall of Lefu Palace to recuperate.

She was seriously injured, but she didn't want the imperial physician to notice anything unusual, so she refused to take the medicine produced by the system until the matter was settled, and then she started taking medicine for treatment.

The more miraculous the effects of the medicines in the Miracle Medicine System Mall, the more points are required.

But after Concubine Xu learned that the original purpose of the Miracle Medicine System was to overthrow Xie Yuzhen, she was no longer so enthusiastic about completing the mission. She gave the life-saving medicine in her hand to the Queen, and later saved up some points and exchanged them for medicine that could help her have a smooth abortion and recuperate after a miscarriage.

At this time, she no longer had any extra points.

After suffering such a serious crime, in order to prevent Concubine Deng's affairs from being exposed, the emperor used the excuse of letting Concubine Xu recuperate and not allowing outsiders to visit. The palace servants inside were also unable to come out, and the eunuchs guarding the door of the east hall were quietly replaced by Yulin Guards.

When Xie Yuzhen rushed over.

The Yulin guarding the gate thought he saw a female ghost running around at night to take her life.

She didn't have her hair in a bun, and her long hair fluttered behind her as she ran. Her clothes were also light-colored, with her big sleeves spread out, as if a white moth suddenly flew out of the darkness and flew towards the candlelight.

"Who is it?!" The leader of the Imperial Guards was at the front, and he involuntarily put his hand on the hilt of his sword. "Your Majesty has ordered that you are not allowed to trespass!"

Xie Yuzhen saw that he had already slightly drawn out the sword, with the blade flashing with cold light. Even if he wanted to rush in directly like he had previously broken through the gate of Lefu Palace, he had to stop temporarily: "I am the noble concubine Zhao of Shouning Palace, and I have something urgent to do to find Concubine Xu."

Concubine Zhao?

The leader of the Imperial Guards was startled: "Your Majesty has ordered that no one is allowed to enter or leave here at will. Lady Zhao... Lady Zhao Guipin, please don't embarrass us."

Xie Yuzhen took a deep breath and said, "The Queen is critically ill and has fainted. She needs the secret medicine passed down by Concubine Xu to be cured. Please let me in first. If there is any blame in the future, I will bear it all."

She felt around her body and found a tassel pendant with a small silver fish tied to it that she had put in the secret pocket of her coat. She didn't care about it and took it out and threw it to the leader of the Imperial Guards: "With this as a proof, you can send someone to ask His Majesty's opinion in front of the emperor, but the Queen's condition cannot be delayed!"

As she spoke, she walked inside.

The leader of the Imperial Guards, who had been messing with the things that were obviously women's, subconsciously wanted to continue to stop them, but he was at a loss because of Xie Yuzhen's status as a concubine. Xie Yuzhen, who was getting more and more anxious, did not say much to him. He took advantage of his embarrassment and raised his hand to draw out the long sword from his body: "If you keep talking nonsense, I will commit suicide on the spot, and none of us will live!"

Unlike the ceremonial swords that the emperor wore as decoration, the long swords carried by the Yulin Guards, who were responsible for the safety of the imperial city, were all sharpened.

Seeing that the lady was so brave, the leader of the Imperial Guards did not dare to stop her. Instead, he watched Xie Yuzhen walk in with the sword in hand. He turned around and told his brothers to watch the door. He then held the little silver fish tassel in his hands and hurried to the imperial court.

Entered the east hall.

There were no lights on in the hall, only a few candles in the corner. Xie Yuzhen followed the candlelight to find the palace guard who was on night watch, and frightened him so much that he screamed. Then Shuang Yi came out of the room holding a lamp: "What are you screaming about? I wonder if the lady has rested?"

When she looked up, she saw a woman with disheveled hair and plain clothes standing in the yard. The woman was holding a sword with a cold glow in her hand: "Ah!"

Shuang Yi screamed and quickly covered her mouth, taking a few quick breaths: "Empress Zhao Guipin?"

Xie Yuzhen looked at her and said, "I have something important to discuss with A Yuan!"

"Yes...Okay." Shuangyi knew something big might have happened when he saw her like this, so he immediately turned around and went into the house to wake up Concubine Xu.

Xie Yuzhen followed her with a sword in hand.

Seeing her put the lamp in her hand on the table, she woke up Lady Xu, who didn't look very well.

"Why did my sister come here suddenly?" Lady Xu felt dizzy. She pinched herself secretly and sobered up a lot. "But has His Majesty found out about us?"

"No." Xie Yuzhen walked over and put the sword next to him. "The fifth prince died, and the queen fainted. The imperial physician said that she may not survive."

When Xie Yuzhen was asking Imperial Physician Lin in Kunning Palace, she still maintained a calmness that even she herself found incredible. She had never shown any unnecessary sadness during the whole journey here, but now when she opened her mouth, her voice trembled uncontrollably, her nose felt sore, and her eyes gradually became moist.

"How could this happen?!" Lady Xu's heart thumped and her mind went blank in an instant.

She subconsciously pinched herself again: "Sister, I..."

She immediately understood why Xie Yuzhen came in disheveled and looking for her late at night, but... she no longer had any points left to exchange for medicine.

A surge of sadness and shame overwhelmed her.

Xie Yuzhen stepped forward and held Lady Xu's hand: "It's too late for me to explain more to you now, A Yuan, please trust me this time!"

The dream-making system was brought to him by the Heavenly Dao, and the Crow's Mouth System dissipated directly after being slapped, but what remained of it also flew into Xie Ruizhen's mind on its own.

Xie Yuzhen didn't know how the Heavenly Dao separated these systems from the original hosts, but after the Heavenly Dao dissipated, Xie Yuzhen gained a pair of eyes that could see through the souls of visitors from other worlds, and could also see that the souls of the original owners would be compressed into a small dot of light trapped between the eyebrows.

According to the way of heaven, she could send the soul of the visitor from another world back from its original owner. It was only because she was curious about the women in later generations that she kept Tong Yu and did not send her back for the time being.

To send back a visitor from another world, Xie Yuzhen only needs to place his hand between the original owner's eyebrows and silently recite words related to sending her home.

She didn't know whether this method would work on a system that was also an outsider, but she intuitively felt that it was worth a try.

At this moment, Lady Xu also vaguely realized something. Without hesitation, she immediately held Xie Yuzhen's hand and said, "I believe you, sister. Please feel free to do what you want!"
