She was originally the daughter of a prefect, but she was not satisfied with being promoted to a concubine and even confused the royal bloodline.
Not killing the entire clan is already a great favor from the emperor.
"A woman in the palace was caught behaving improperly. She was so ashamed that she hanged herself, and all those around her were expelled from the palace."
Expulsion is impossible, and saying this is tantamount to silencing someone.
Eunuch Li immediately arranged for his subordinates to do it.
Concubine Xian, it’s over.
Zhou Yunshen added, "That remnant of the previous dynasty can't be just one person. Let's leave it to His Royal Highness Prince Huai. He has a son, and we should be able to interrogate him and find out something."
King Huai bowed his head in thanks and said, "Thank you, Marquis Zhennan, for your courtesy. I will definitely live up to your expectations!"
The three grown men handled everything silently and followed.
Jiang Shuyue: [System, Concubine Xian is actually quite green tea. After my confrontation with her, is there no green tea value?]
System: [Yes, but it's too little, so I'm saving it for you. You still need 150 Green Tea Points to redeem the Marrow Cleansing Pill for your second brother.]
Jiang Shuyue: [It's okay, it's almost done! But Prince Huai isn't feeling well. Will the Marrow Cleansing Pill help him?]
System: [The Marrow Cleansing Pill can only transform a person, it is useless for someone with crippled legs.]
King Huai's heart, which had just lifted, sank again.
Well, even though I heard Zhou Yunshen talk about the Marrow Cleansing Pill, since the system says it doesn’t work, it must really not work.
It also stopped his thoughts.
System: [But the Rongling Pill can! The Rongling Pill is a top-grade elixir refined by the Heavenly Monarch. It can even grow back short limbs. What's more, he only has broken bones and severed meridians in his lower limbs.]
King Huai's eyes lit up.
Is there really such a treasure in the world? Can his leg be saved?
System: [Unfortunately, the redemption points for the Rongling Pill are too high. The minimum redemption point is one thousand Green Tea Values. Host, are you really ready to redeem it? King Huai and you are not related in any way, so it's not worth wasting points.]
Jiang Shuyue was silent for a while. Everyone felt a little lost because they couldn't hear her voice.
King Huai also shook his head bitterly: "I heard that the Green Tea Value is related to her ascension. This king and she have no relationship, so there is really no need to waste time."
Jiang Shuyue: [Exchange it! It's just green tea value, right? There's so much green tea in the world. I'll be more diligent in the future and I'll be able to save it back soon!]
System: [Think it over carefully. You didn't even bother with your mother's affairs, so there's no need to worry about King Huai's affairs.]
Jiang Shuyue: [That's different! My mom is obsessed with love. She won't listen to me. It will take time for Jiang An to suffer retribution.]
King Huai is different. Look at how weak and pathetic he is. If he stood up, he would be a walking spectacle.
[I'll deal with my second brother's business once it's done. Let me figure out how to earn the remaining Green Tea Value!]
Jiang Shuyue thought of several methods, all of which required taking the initiative to cause trouble.
Her biggest supporter now is Zhou Yunshen. What if she angers him and he ignores her?
Oh, it’s so hard to strike the right balance, and it’s so hard to be a human being.
King Huai was moved to tears.
She actually did this for me... What a good person, what a good person.
Just because of this, when he returns home tonight, he will arrange for green tea to be delivered to her door so that Jiang Shuyue can drink a good pot of it.
Jiang Shuyue dozed off for a while in the princess's bedroom. When she woke up, she asked about the virtuous concubine, but everyone kept silent and changed the subject.
She felt strange: [What's wrong with everyone? Hearing the name of Concubine Xian makes everyone want to see shit.]
System: [She died in childbirth, and the Emperor discovered the eunuch's true identity. The entire Xianfei Palace was purged.]
Purge? Was that the purge she understood?
If the system doesn't respond, it's considered as a default.
Jiang Shuyue: [So many lives were lost, all because they followed the wrong master. What a sin! What about their children? The Eighth Prince is still young, he won't...]
System: [The Emperor gave the Eighth Prince to a minister for adoption and announced to the public that the Eighth Prince had passed away.]
[We've also obtained the list of remnants of the previous dynasty, and we should see some action in the next few days.]
She felt much more relieved knowing that the child was fine.
My impression of the emperor also improved a little.
The struggles for imperial power she had witnessed were much more cruel than this, and the current emperor could be considered a regent.
"My dear, did you sleep well? Your husband is here to take you home."
Zhou Yunshen brought a small meat bun, still steaming hot.
Jiang Shuyue came over after smelling the scent.
"Husband, is this for me?"
"Well, you must be hungry after waking up. Fill your stomach and go home to eat chicken."
Jiang Shuyue: [Sure, sure! I love the chicken the chef makes the most! I wonder if it'll be roasted or grilled today.]
Zhou Yunshen: "Let's have braised food tonight. Eating roasted chicken all the time will easily cause internal heat."
Jiang Shuyue nodded quickly: "Braised is better! The soup can be used to mix with rice, it must be very fragrant."
Zhou Yunshen held her left hand and slowed down to let her follow.
Seeing her eating in such an untidy manner, the system was really worried that she would accidentally choke to death, so it kindly reminded her.
[Eat slowly, the system detects that the ultimate melon is approaching, but it is not yet ripe, so it needs to be cultivated slowly and deeply.]
[Stop talking nonsense, tell me what's going on.]
The system waited for a while, and when it detected the approach of the big melon, the alarm sounded: [Here it comes!]
Who is coming?
Jiang Shuyue raised her head and saw a delicate young man in white walking towards her.
For some reason, she felt irritated.
Damn, he looks exactly like the idiot who caused her to be struck by lightning!
Zhou Yunshen narrowed his eyes and stood sideways in front of Jiang Shuyue: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to the Fourth Prince."
Jiang Shuyue screamed: [Fuck, this person is the Fourth Prince? The future emperor, the little bastard who imprisoned my big villain?]
The more she looked at him, the more displeased she became, and she grabbed Zhou Yunshen's arm tightly.
Killing intent flashed in the fourth prince's eyes, but disappeared in an instant.
"My Lord, there is no need to be so polite. I heard that your wife has entered the palace and wanted to meet her. I have specially arranged a banquet. I hope your Lordship will come and see her."
System: [First, let me tell you something. The Fourth Prince drugged someone at the banquet. He's fine with men, but very domineering with women.]
Jiang Shuyue: [How domineering?]
System: [Crazy as a mother, that thing, damage to the body afterwards, infertility! ]
Zhou Yunshen's eyes hardened. "No, my wife is not in good health. She has been bothering the palace for too long. I want to take everyone back."
"But the banquet is already prepared. It's not too late to leave after the banquet. I haven't seen the Marquis of Zhennan for a long time. I..."
"Your Highness."
Zhou Yunshen interrupted him coldly: "If I don't go back now, the food will get cold. I will take my leave first."
Zhou Yunshen picked up Jiang Shuyue and said, "My bride is not in good health. I am sorry to have embarrassed you, Your Highness."
Jiang Shuyue lay on his shoulder, feeling something was wrong.
But she couldn't tell what was strange about it. She quickly felt sleepy and fell asleep without realizing it.
The Fourth Prince rubbed his head with a cold face.
"Your Highness, are you feeling unwell? Do you need me to summon the imperial physician?"
"It's okay, it's just that my head is buzzing."
