After rebirth, she killed her best friend and took over the scumbag's kingdom

Mammy sighed and said, "Alas, I really can't understand why I was suddenly locked up in that gloomy inner prison. There must be some hidden reason behind this."

Concubine Wan closed her eyes and said slowly, "We just need to wait and see what happens this time. There is no such thing as an accident without a reason in this palace. The Queen must have made some moves. What's more, isn't the Emperor going to Cangzhou? When the Emperor comes back from Cangzhou, maybe the sky in this palace will have changed."

The nanny couldn't help but shudder. She whispered, "Madam, you are talking so seriously that I am a little scared. I heard that the emperor went to Cangzhou for a prostitute. Is this true?"

"It is true. In recent years, the emperor has either stayed away from women or only stayed with the empress. But in recent days, he seems to have become a different person. Like a hungry tiger, he has been madly favoring the concubines in the harem, making them miserable. These actions of the emperor are indeed puzzling."

Concubine Wan lay quietly in her bedding. She had endured countless difficult and lonely nights in the deep palace, so she didn't mind waiting a little longer.

She was just waiting for the emperor to welcome the courtesan into the palace to see if the empress could still enjoy the emperor's favor.

Yun Jingxi was currently in the bedroom of the newly promoted Consort Su. He was in a frenzy and almost out of control.

He called out loudly to Eunuch Gao.

Eunuch Gao heard the emperor's roar from a distance, and wondered what had happened to make the emperor lose his composure like this.

Eunuch Gao plucked up his courage and walked carefully into Lady Su's room, asking softly, "Your Majesty, what happened? Why are you so angry?"

In the corner of the bed, a young beauty was huddled there in fear. Her face was pale and her eyes were full of fear and helplessness.

Yun Jingxi glanced at her, without a trace of warmth in his eyes, as if he was looking at an insignificant object.

He said nothing, turned around and left the bedroom.

"Eunuch Gao, did the Taoist priest say anything special about the golden elixir you got from Qingxuan?"

Eunuch Gao's heart trembled, and he tried hard to recall every word of his conversation with Taoist Qingxuan.

There was nothing special in his memory.

The Taoist priest just followed the convention and explained the benefits and possible risks of the golden elixir.

Eunuch Gao was full of doubts and asked:

"Your Majesty, is there something wrong with your health?"

The emperor was silent for a moment, "Eunuch Gao, only a month has passed, and I feel overwhelmed again."

Eunuch Gao's face changed and he felt uneasy.

"At the beginning, the Taoist priest said that everyone's body is different and he can't guarantee a 100% cure."

Eunuch Gao whispered, "Could it be...Could it be that the golden elixir did not play the role it was supposed to?"

"Then send more people to Hengtian Mountain immediately."

Eunuch Gao was stunned. He had never seen the emperor look so anxious.

He paused, "Your Majesty, it is said that the Taoist priest followed Prince Duan to Cangzhou, and gave away medicine everywhere among the people in Cangzhou. Now his reputation has risen. People say that Taoist priest Qingxuan is a living immortal on Mount Kunlun."

Yun Jingxi nodded slightly. He already knew all this information.

He thought of the courtesan Li Meir in Cangzhou and the clues to the treasure robbed by Prime Minister Liu. Everything was in Cangzhou.

"Go and tell the hidden guards to prepare to leave for Cangzhou tomorrow."

A trace of surprise flashed across Eunuch Gao's face, and he couldn't help but remind him:

"Your Majesty, isn't time a bit tight? The secret guards need to prepare their luggage and deploy manpower, and the journey is long..."

"Why are you in such a hurry? I said a long time ago that I would prepare to go to Cangzhou. This matter has been decided long ago, and I have been making thorough preparations for it. I have my own arrangements for the affairs of the court. Pass down the decree and let Prince Duan supervise the country. His power in the court is now at its peak, and I believe no one dares to object.

Eunuch Gao had no choice but to accept the order and leave. He was afraid that he would not be able to sleep tonight as he had to run various errands.

The night fades away and the dawn begins to appear on the horizon.

Peace finally returned to Liu Shuanglian's bed in Fengning Palace.

Ruan Qingchen glanced at the sky outside the window and said, "It's almost dawn, I have to leave immediately. Don't worry, I will help you with whatever you ask me to do, take care of yourself."

Liu Shuanglian was tired after a whole night, and she waved weakly at Ruan Qingchen.

Watching Ruan Qingchen climb out of the window, she turned to look at Leng Yi who had fainted beside her. Liu Shuanglian frowned and kicked her awake.

"Wake up quickly. If you, a palace maid, were to lie on my bed and be seen by others, you would be criticized."

Leng Yi was awakened by Liu Shuanglian's warning. She opened her eyes dazedly and saw the empress looking at her.

She was so scared that she quickly got up from the bed, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to apologize.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. This slave did not mean to do that. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Liu Shuanglian looked at her and said, "Well, you are lucky to be able to share a man with me."

Leng Yi's body is still in the pain of being torn apart. "My Queen, please spare my life."

"Okay, hurry up and clean up the room. The eunuchs and maids outside should be waking up soon."

Leng Yi struggled to stand up, dragging her trembling legs, enduring the extreme discomfort between her thighs, and began to clean up the room.

She carefully changed all the bedding, fearing that any noise would disturb the empress.

The sky outside was gradually getting brighter, and the eunuchs and palace maids should be waking up soon.

Leng Yi knew that she had to clean up the room as quickly as possible and not let anyone notice anything.

What she didn't know was that the two little eunuchs, Xiao Yunzi and Xiao Duozi, who were hiding in the corner of Fengning Palace, had already woken up.

Just now, they witnessed with their own eyes a man climbing out of the window. His movements were swift and skillful, and he was obviously a well-trained master.

Xiao Yunzi turned her head slightly and said to Xiao Duozi in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "I think I recognize this man."

There was an inexplicable tension and solemnity in his tone.

Xiao Duozi's heart was filled with fear at this moment. He was afraid that his voice would bring unnecessary trouble, and he was even worried about being silenced.

He still suppressed his fear and responded: "Who is it?"

His voice was trembling and weak, almost blown away by the wind.

"It seems to be Commander Ruan, the commander of the Imperial Guards."

Xiao Duozi widened her eyes, and an indescribable fear surged in her heart.

The commander of the imperial guards, Commander Ruan, is a big shot in the palace and is in charge of the safety of the entire palace.

How did he appear here? And why did he climb out of the window? All of this made Xiao Duozi shudder.

They knew that this secret could not be revealed casually, otherwise it might bring disaster to themselves.

In the dim little kitchen, two people were huddled under the stove, whispering.

"We must find a way to convey this message to Prince Duan." Xiao Duozi from Fengning Palace said in a low voice.
