Ah, you traveled through time too?

In a corner of the palace, Mei Fei stood in front of the window, her heart full of anger and confusion. She did not expect Liu Xu and Zhang Yu to betray her, which made her extremely angry.

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from outside the door. It was her maid Xiaofang.

"Concubine Mei, are you okay?" Xiaofang gently pushed the door open and walked in.

Mei Fei took a deep breath and said slowly: "I'm fine, just a little disappointed."

Xiaofang was slightly stunned. "Disappointed? Is it about Liu Xu and Zhang Yu?"

Mei Fei nodded, "Yes. I once trusted them, but they betrayed me."

Xiaofang frowned. "I find it strange too. Liu Xu and Zhang Yu are people you trust. Why would they do such a thing?"

Mei Fei sighed, "I don't know. Maybe they were used by someone, or they had other plans."

Xiaofang frowned, "Who do you think is manipulating them behind the scenes?"

A trace of indifference flashed across Mei Fei's eyes. "I don't know, but I will definitely find out the truth and will never let those who betrayed me succeed."

Xiaofang looked at Concubine Mei deeply and said, "Concubine Mei, I will always support you no matter what happens."

Mei Fei smiled, "Thank you, Xiao Fang. I know I can trust you."

At this time, a servant hurried in, "Mei Fei, a palace maid wants to see you. She said she has something important to tell you."

Mei Fei raised her eyebrows slightly, "Really? Let her in."

Then, a young palace maid in palace dress walked in, with a hint of nervousness on her face.

"Mei Fei, I have something important to tell you." Her voice trembled slightly.

Mei Fei looked at her sharply, "What's the matter? Tell me."

The maid swallowed and said, "I know why Liu Xu and Zhang Yu betrayed you."

Mei Fei's eyes flashed with excitement, "Really? Then why?"

The maid's voice was filled with fear. "Because they were used by someone, and that person was..."

Just then, the door was pushed open suddenly, and a figure rushed in like lightning, interrupting the maid's words.

The person who broke into the room was Mei Fei's confidant. He looked at Mei Fei and the palace maid with an anxious look on his face.

"Mei Fei, there's an emergency!" he gasped.

Mei Fei frowned, "What's the matter?"

"Someone spread rumors in the palace, saying that you are a rebel and are attempting to rebel!" the confidant explained anxiously.

Mei Fei's face turned pale. She had not expected things to develop to this point. "Rebel? Treason? This is definitely a false accusation!"

The maid also looked horrified, "Princess Mei, I believe you would never do such a thing."

Mei Fei's eyes were firm and sharp. "I need to take action immediately. I can't let these rumors continue to spread."

The confidant nodded, "Yes, Concubine Mei, I will immediately arrange for someone to find out the facts as soon as possible."

Mei Fei clenched her fists tightly, and a fire of anger burned in her heart. "I will never let those conspirators succeed!"

At this moment, a guard hurried in and said, "Concubine Mei, someone is shouting outside the palace gate that you are plotting a rebellion, and this has caused some people to panic."

Mei Fei frowned even more tightly, "These rumors must be put to rest as soon as possible, otherwise the situation will get out of control."

The maid Xiaofang came forward and said, "Concubine Mei, I have a plan..."

Mei Fei stared at her closely, "What's the plan?"

Xiaofang looked determined, "We can use the palace's communication network to issue a clarification statement and tell everyone that these rumors are fabricated."

Mei Fei thought for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, get ready immediately. We can't let these rumors continue to spread."

The confidant quickly added: "At the same time, we also need to strengthen the guard of the palace gate to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the chaos to cause trouble."

Mei Fei nodded heavily, "Let's go, we can't let this conspiracy succeed."

They left in a hurry and plunged into the vortex of power struggle. In this dangerous court world, they will face more challenges and tests.

Mei Fei frowned tightly, and her heart was very heavy. The spread of rumors had exceeded her expectations, and she had to take action as soon as possible to calm the situation.

Xiaofang came over in a hurry, "Mei Fei, the clarification statement is ready."

Mei Fei took the document, scanned the contents, and nodded. "Very good, publish it immediately."

The palace maid Xiaofang hurried to the communications room, preparing to release the statement to the palace's communications network.

At the same time, Mei Fei's confidant came over anxiously, "Mei Fei, the situation has gotten out of control. A large crowd has gathered outside the palace gate and they want to see you."

Mei Fei took a deep breath, feeling anxious. "I must personally come forward to calm people's hearts."

The confidant immediately led Mei Fei to the palace gate. When they arrived at the palace gate, the crowd's voices were deafening, and the atmosphere was tense and restless.

Mei Fei stood on the high platform, her eyes scanning the gathered crowd. "Everyone, I know some people are spreading rumors about me, but I assure you here that these rumors are pure fabrication! There is no doubt about my loyalty to you all, and I will never do anything to betray the court."

There was a commotion among the crowd, but Mei Fei did not stop. "Now is the time for us to unite and face the external threats together. I need everyone's support and trust to lead the court through the difficulties."

An old man stood up, his voice steady and powerful. "Mei Fei, we believe in you! We are willing to follow your command and fight against the foreign enemies together."

This sentence seemed to ignite the enthusiasm of the crowd, and voices of support rang out one after another. Mei Fei's mood finally eased a little, and she knew that her efforts were not in vain.

The situation outside the palace was gradually under control, and Concubine Mei finally breathed a sigh of relief. But she still knew in her heart that this was only a temporary victory, and she had to continue working hard to consolidate her position in the palace.

At the same time, in a secret room in the palace, a figure stood in the dark with a cold look in his eyes. He was Mei Fei's rival, secretly controlling everything.

"Mei Fei, do you think you have won?" He sneered, "This is just the beginning, the rest of the game has just begun."

In Mei Fei's palace, she sat on the gorgeous throne with a solemn look and a trace of worry between her brows. She knew that the situation was still not optimistic, and that the mysterious opponent was still manipulating everything in secret.

Suddenly, a maid hurried in with a panicked look on her face.

"Mei Fei, something happened!" Her voice trembled slightly.

Mei Fei looked at her warily, "What's the matter?"

The maid gasped and said, "Someone has discovered a secret passage in the palace, and it leads to your inner chamber!"

Mei Fei's heart sank when she heard the news. Once the secret passage was discovered, it would mean her safety was threatened.

"Notify the guards immediately and strengthen the guard of the secret passage!" Mei Fei's voice carried a hint of command.

The maid nodded and hurriedly left the palace.

Just then, a familiar voice sounded behind Concubine Mei.

"Mei Fei, are you okay?" A gentle and familiar voice came.

Mei Fei turned around and saw that it was her close friend and loyal supporter, the Imperial Concubine.

"My Lady, you're here." Mei Fei smiled slightly, "I'm fine, it's just that the situation is a little tense."

The imperial concubine frowned, "I heard about the movement in the palace. It seems that the opponent has already started to act."

Mei Fei nodded, "Yes, I feel it too. But we can't just sit there and wait for death. We must take action."

A gleam of determination flashed in the imperial concubine's eyes, "I will do my best to support you, Mei Fei. We will deal with this crisis together."

Mei Fei looked at her gratefully, "Thank you, Imperial Concubine. I feel more confident with you around."

At this moment, the maid hurried in, "Princess Mei, someone wants to see you and says they have important news to tell you."

Mei Fei raised her eyebrows slightly, "Really? Let him in immediately."

The maid nodded, turned and left the palace.

Mei Fei and Gui Fei looked at each other, their hearts full of doubts. Who would come to her at this time? What kind of conspiracy was hidden in the crisis they were facing?

The conversation between Mei Fei and Gui Fei was interrupted because a figure hurried into the palace. This person was a minister in official uniform, with a solemn expression, obviously carrying important news.

"Minister, what do you want to talk to me about?" Concubine Mei asked with a hint of seriousness in her voice.

The minister bowed deeply, "Princess Mei, I have a secret report to present to you."

"What kind of secret information?" The imperial concubine keenly sensed something unusual.

The minister handed the document in his hand to Concubine Mei, "This is news about the mysterious opponent. We finally found out his identity."

Mei Fei took the document and stared at the contents closely. Gui Fei also came over and looked at it together.

"This...what's going on?" Concubine Mei's voice was filled with a hint of shock.

The imperial concubine frowned, "This person is actually..."

The minister nodded, "Yes, Concubine Mei, your opponent is one of your most trusted confidants, he is..."

At this moment, hurried footsteps were heard outside the palace, and then the door was suddenly pushed open, and a figure rushed in. It was the mysterious opponent before.

"Mei Fei, do you finally understand?" His voice was cold and sarcastic.

Concubine Mei and Concubine Gui stared at him in amazement, unable to believe it.

"You...you are actually a traitor!" Mei Fei's voice was filled with anger and disappointment.

"Yes, Mei Fei, I am the traitor." The opponent laughed mockingly, "You are so naive that you actually believed my lies."

The imperial concubine frowned, "You despicable fellow, you actually betrayed Concubine Mei!"

There was a hint of indifference in the opponent's eyes. "In this world, there is no eternal loyalty. There is only interest and power."

Mei Fei clenched her fists tightly, her heart filled with anger and despair. "You won't succeed. I will defeat your conspiracy."

The opponent sneered, "Let's wait and see."

After saying this, he turned and left the palace, leaving Mei Fei and Gui Fei with doubts and confusion. In this world of power and intrigue, anyone could be a betrayer, and the conspiracy behind it might be more terrifying than they imagined.

Mei Fei clenched her fists tightly, and an indescribable anger and despair surged in her heart. She had never expected that her most trusted confidant would betray her, which made her feel extremely sad and disappointed.

The imperial concubine gently patted Mei Fei's shoulder and said, "Mei Fei, don't be discouraged. We will definitely find a way to deal with him."

Mei Fei nodded slowly, with a hint of determination in her eyes. "Yes, we can't let that traitor succeed."

Just then, a servant hurried in, "Princess Mei, someone wants to see you and says they have something important to tell you."

Mei Fei frowned, "Who is it again?"

The servant whispered, "It was an old official in the palace. He said he had news about the traitor."

Mei Fei and Gui Fei looked at each other, and a glimmer of hope surged in their hearts. Maybe this old minister knew something they didn't know.
