Rebirth of Her Royal Highness the Princess

Chapter 279 There is a Secret

The foreign princess had only been in the palace for a short month when she was canonized as Consort Lan, an unprecedented honor. Her position was higher than that of other concubines in the harem, and even the queen showed her respect.

The favored Concubine An and Concubine Xiao were neglected because of the arrival of this foreign princess. Especially Concubine Xiao, she has always been one of the emperor's favorite concubines, but since Concubine Lan entered the palace, her status has obviously declined a lot. Now seeing Concubine Lan so powerful, her heart is full of resentment and resentment.

Although Concubine An was not as deeply affected as Concubine Xiao, she also felt the pressure.

After all, she was also an elder in the palace, but she had never been able to obtain a higher position.

As soon as this foreign princess arrived, she easily climbed over their heads. How could they not be jealous?

"Hmph! What ability does this foreign princess have to deserve such love from the emperor?" Concubine An said indignantly.

"Yes, we have been in the palace for so long, but we are not as favored as a new woman!" Concubine Xiao echoed.

The two looked at each other with reluctance in their eyes. They decided to join forces to deal with Concubine Lan in order to regain the lost favor. However, they did not know that Concubine Lan was not an ordinary woman, and there was a huge secret hidden behind her...

So, Concubine An and Concubine Xiao began to secretly observe Concubine Lan's every move, trying to find her weaknesses.

After a period of observation, they found that Concubine Lan often went to a remote corner of the Imperial Garden alone, where she seemed to cry secretly. "It seems that Concubine Lan also has her own difficulties that are unknown to others." Concubine Xiao thought to herself. They decided to seize this opportunity to expose Concubine Lan's true face in front of the emperor.

That day, when Concubine Lan came to the Imperial Garden again, Concubine An and Concubine Xiao followed her quietly.

However, just as they were about to make a move, they unexpectedly discovered that Lan Fei was not crying, but was talking to a mysterious man. The man had a handsome face, but there was a hint of evil in his eyes.

Concubine An and Concubine Xiao were stunned for a moment. They realized that things were far more complicated than they had imagined.

Concubine An and Concubine Xiao looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes. They never thought that Concubine Lan would dare to meet with a man in the palace! At this moment, they were both excited and nervous. If they could report this matter, Concubine Lan would definitely fall out of favor.

Just as they were thinking, the man seemed to notice someone and turned to look in the direction where they were hiding. An and Xiao were startled and quickly turned around and left.

Back in the palace, the two discussed whether to tell the emperor what they had seen and heard. However, considering that there was no solid evidence, the emperor might not believe it, and it might bring trouble to himself.

In the end, they decided to hold off for the time being, continue to observe the movements of Concubine Lan and the mysterious man, and look for a more appropriate time to make plans. At the same time, they were also worried that the mysterious man would harm them, so they decided to strengthen their precautions.

A few days later, Concubine An and Concubine Xiao learned that Concubine Lan was going to the Imperial Garden again, so they hid nearby in advance. This time, they finally heard the conversation between Concubine Lan and the mysterious man.

It turns out that the man is actually Concubine Lan's brother, who was exiled because his family was convicted. Concubine Lan entered the palace to redress her family's injustice.

Concubine Xiao felt pity and couldn't help but feel more sympathy for Concubine Lan.

However, Concubine An disagreed, thinking that this was just Concubine Lan's one-sided statement.

Suddenly, a palace maid came to inform them that the emperor wanted to see them. The two had to leave in a hurry. When meeting the emperor, Concubine An wanted to report Concubine Lan, but was secretly stopped by Concubine Xiao.

After leaving the palace, Concubine Xiao warned Concubine An not to act rashly, so as not to implicate herself. Although Concubine An was unwilling, she had no choice.

After that, Concubine Lan and the mysterious man continued to meet from time to time, and Concubine An and Concubine Xiao were caught in a dilemma...

As time goes by, Concubine Lan's contacts with the mysterious man become more frequent. Concubine An's dissatisfaction grows day by day. She feels that she can no longer sit and wait for death, and must find a way to expose Concubine Lan's secret.

One day, Anpin sneaked into Concubine Lan's bedroom while she was away from the palace, hoping to find some clues. However, she searched for a long time but found nothing.

When Anpin was about to leave, she accidentally touched a vase on the table, and the vase fell to the ground and broke into pieces. Anpin was startled and hurried to clean up the mess. Suddenly, she found that there seemed to be something hidden at the bottom of the vase.

Anpin picked up a piece of the fragment and took a closer look. It turned out to be a letter. She didn't recognize the handwriting on the letter, but judging from the style of the envelope, the letter was obviously from outside the palace.

Anpin's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and she realized that this might be the evidence she had been looking for. She carefully put the letter away, ready to question Lanpin in person when she returned.

Anpin tightly grasped the letter, thinking secretly in her heart. She decided to wait and see how Lanpin would react. When Lanpin returned to the palace, she saw the broken vase on the floor and Anpin looking panicked, and immediately understood what had happened.

A flash of surprise flashed across Concubine Lan's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure. She pretended to be calm and asked Concubine An what happened. Concubine An sneered and handed the letter to Concubine Lan.

"What's going on? What else are you hiding from us?" Lan Fei took the letter, took a look at it, and her face turned pale.

"This... this letter is not for you to read!" Concubine Lan turned around and tried to snatch the letter.

Concubine An dodged and glared at Concubine Lan.

"Okay, you really have a secret. I'm going to tell the emperor!"

After saying that, Concubine An walked out the door. Concubine Lan was extremely anxious. She couldn't let Concubine An hand the letter to the emperor, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

At this moment, a dark shadow jumped into the house from the window, blocking Anpin's way...

The black shadow quickly made a move and pressed the acupuncture points of Concubine An, making her unable to move. Seeing this, Concubine Lan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Who are you? Why did you save me?" Lan Fei looked at the black shadow warily.

The shadow walked up to Concubine Lan and whispered, "Don't worry, I'm here to help you. Concubine Lan, someone doesn't want the emperor to see this letter. As long as you listen to me, I can guarantee your safety."

Concubine Lan hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

The black shadow took the letter from Concubine Lan, took a look at it, and then put it in his arms.

"Now, we have to get rid of Concubine An. We can't let her interfere with our plans." The black shadow said in a cold tone.

Lan Fei was shocked, but she had no choice but to obey the black shadow's arrangements.

The two men carried the immobile Concubine An to the bed and covered her body with a quilt to create the illusion that she was still sleeping.

"Next, you do as I say..." the black shadow whispered in Lan Fei's ear.
