The Legend of the Concubine in the Harem

The reason why she didn't tell the Queen was because Xie Yuzhen was not sure she could convince the Queen to join in this plan. She wanted to control the key person first, and after she and the Queen were clear about each other's ideas and persuaded her not to seek death anymore, she would reveal her plan to the Queen.

Before that, the emperor must be fooled first.

Perhaps because this time there was no emperor coming with a letter of impeachment to question them, the atmosphere between the couple was very harmonious. After they decided word by word how the funeral of the fifth prince should be held and how it should be recorded in the family tree and palace history books, the emperor prepared to stay and watch over the queen for the night with a gloomy face.

Xie Yuzhen seized the opportunity and stood up: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

"Why haven't you gone back to rest yet?" the emperor asked with a frown.

Xie Yuzhen walked to the side of the queen and said, "I noticed that your majesty didn't look very well, so I asked Yunrong and the others to go to the Imperial Hospital to invite the imperial physician over."

Yun Rong was indeed sent away, and the imperial physician was indeed invited back. Xie Yuzhen cut and pasted these two things and made them into a completely new thing.

When she approached the queen, she still asked the dream system and the miracle medicine system to scan the queen's condition respectively.

My health is just as bad, and my mental state is just as bad.

Xie Yuzhen gently supported the queen and found that although her face did not show any symptoms, her limbs were cold and she was trembling slightly. She thought that she was trying hard not to show any weakness in order to deal with the emperor.

"That's exactly what should be done. I was negligent," said the emperor in annoyance.

He was still thinking about the court officials' impeachment of Concubine Ning and the Empress for colluding to poison the late Emperor. He wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of the trouble of Concubine Ning, but he didn't want to conflict with the Empress at this time.

The queen saw his embarrassment. Although she didn't understand, she still asked habitually, "Your Majesty, are you still worried about the government affairs that have not been dealt with?"

The emperor was stunned, then nodded hesitantly.

The Queen sighed and said, "This is how it should be for the Ninth Life. We have been able to keep him until now, which has already fulfilled the fate between us parents and him. Your Majesty must not delay state affairs because of this. You can go back without worry. Concubine Zhao and I are here with you."

“Then the queen must take care of herself and not be too sad. I heard from the steward of the temporary palace the day before yesterday that the roses and lotus flowers in the palace are blooming very well this year. After Jiushou is sent to the mausoleum, you should go and recuperate for a while and relax.” The emperor planned to suppress the impeachment for a few days, and then deal with it cleanly after sending the queen away.

Although the temporary palace is not far from the capital, if the emperor intends to block the news, the queen will not be able to get timely news from the outside world while recuperating in the palace.

He didn't know that the queen's mind had been exhausted to the extreme, and she had already wanted to die. But the emperor knew very well that if he used Concubine Ning to take the blame, she would definitely object. Considering that the queen was in poor health and should not be stimulated again, he came up with the idea of ​​asking her to go to the palace to recuperate.

When the matter is settled, the Queen should have recovered. Then even if she wants to have a fight with me, the consequences will not be unbearable.

The more the emperor thought about it, the more he felt that this plan was feasible, so he asked Xie Yuzhen to take good care of the queen and help her receive the concubines. He then turned around and planned to go to the Lizheng Hall to pack up the memorials, keep them there and not send them out, and then find some more urgent matters, and let those who had submitted memorials deal with them first.

Watch the emperor leave.

Xie Yuzhen helped the queen sit down and said, "Since your majesty is not feeling well, why do you have to force yourself to stay up?"

"Alas..." The queen shook her head weakly, "I feel a little uncomfortable. I don't know why. I don't want to see him here."

Upon hearing this, Xie Yuzhen walked around to the Queen, squatted down, looked up at the Queen who was a little surprised by her action, and said, "The last time Your Majesty was seriously ill, Concubine Xu gave me a pill that she said could save her life. If Your Majesty trusts me, why don't you take it first?"

"That's something Concubine Xu gave you. Just keep it for yourself. I'm fine." The Queen was startled and said, but she was afraid of hurting Xie Yuzhen and making her feel that she didn't trust her, so she added, "My health has always been like this. There's no need to waste this good medicine. Thank you for caring about me. I know what's going on."

There is a hammer number!

Xie Yuzhen couldn't help but droop his face - there was indeed a number, but this "number" was not what he expected.

She took out the pill, and while the queen hadn't reacted, she took advantage of it and fed it into her mouth by surprise. The pill melted in her mouth, and the queen swallowed it subconsciously, revealing an expression of surprise and a little gentle reproach: "You..."

"Your Majesty, you can't even react to this, and you still insist on arguing with me about how good you are..." Xie Yuzhen simply leaned on the queen's lap, tears streaming down her face, "Fortunately it's me today. If it were someone else, they would feed you something incredible, or be as reckless as me, and directly... Alas!"

There was only a faint medicinal aroma in her mouth, and a familiar warmth slowly arose in her stomach. The queen was moved, but helpless: "Don't cry, don't cry..."

While trying to comfort Xie Yuzhen in this way, the Queen herself could not help sobbing and shedding tears.

Tears dripped onto Xie Yuzhen's arm, and she raised her head again: "I know your majesty is sad, please don't hold it in. No matter how sad you are, you still have to continue living. Don't hold it in your heart. Cry it out as much as you can, it will be good for your health."

"I..." The queen couldn't help shedding tears. In fact, she seldom cried.

When she was a young girl, she seldom suffered any sadness because of her noble birth and the love and indulgence of her mothers. After she married the emperor, she was first the crown prince's concubine with a less secure status, and then she became the mother of the country. Even if she encountered sad things, she could not cry freely.

Burdened with so many responsibilities, Wang Linghui almost forgot how to use tears to release the pent-up emotions in her heart.

This is an ability that a person has since birth, but it is gradually being deprived in the tedious and depressing life.

Gradually, the positions of the two women were reversed. Xie Yuzhen used to lie on the queen's lap and cry coquettishly, and then she held the queen in her arms, gently patting her trembling back, letting her tears completely wet her aching shoulders.

The queen's sobs gradually turned into uncontrollable and unconcealed wails. Although the palace servants were surprised by her misconduct today, no one stepped forward to remind her that this was against the rules and etiquette. Instead, they remained silent, carefully lowered their footsteps, lowered their heads to wipe the moisture from the corners of their eyes, and left the hall silently, leaving the hostess space to cry as she pleased.
