Everyone's an Overachiever, Under the Empress Dowager

Gu Yinwei had just cultivated to become a Daluo Golden Immortal when she surprisingly transmigrated into a book. It was bad enough to transmigrate from an immortal into a mortal, but she also becam...

Chapter 42: Medicine is Poisonous

"I still have official business to attend to. I will have lunch with you tomorrow. You don't have to wait for me in the evening."

"Your Majesty, I respectfully bid you farewell."

As soon as the emperor left, Zhenfei began to think about her plan again. She stayed awake all night and came up with a perfect plan.

Concubine Zhen got up early and rushed to Qiwu Palace to pay her respects. Concubine Jin caught up with her and said, "Yesterday, I heard that a eunuch had offended the Empress Dowager and has become mute today."

"You also went to the Cining Palace yesterday. How did that eunuch offend the Empress Dowager? Tell me quickly so that I can avoid disaster.

"Some disasters cannot be avoided anywhere. If you don't want to suffer a disaster, don't go to the Cining Palace." Zhenfei was in a bad mood and her words were full of thorns.

Concubine Jin was puzzled and thought to herself that Concubine Zhen must have been offended in the Cining Palace, and the Empress Dowager would talk to her in a few days.

"Aqiu, send someone to keep an eye on Concubine Zhen."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Aqiu held Concubine Jin's hand. Concubine Jin walked up the stairs. In the same place, under the same good weather, she saw Gu Yinwei again.

Concubine Jin nodded, and Gu Yinwei bowed slightly as a greeting.

Ah Qiu said, "Master, have you seen the dragonfly hairpin that Gu Gengyi is wearing? The material used is not cheap."

"Money can't buy what she loves. The emperor is willing to spend money on anything she likes, no matter how precious it is. Just wait and see. Gu Gengyi is not someone who can be easily found. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, her position will definitely rise."

"In that case, I must prepare the gifts as soon as possible to avoid being in a rush when the time comes."

"It's time to prepare well." Concubine Jin entered the inner hall and found her seat. Aqiu stood behind her.

"Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and Huang Sishan has made some mooncakes for everyone to try. You can help yourself."

There was a porcelain plate next to each of the small tables, filled with pastries.

Everyone stood up to express their gratitude, and Concubine Yi was the first to pick up the mooncake and take a bite.
