Chapter 47 This woman is coming for her!

After such a commotion in Lingyun Palace, Murong Che dismissed everyone and drove back to Changsheng Palace.

After everyone had left, Xue Youli looked at Banxia's swollen face and immediately ordered someone to bring the ointment she had recently prepared.

"This medicine is very effective in reducing swelling, but it will sting a little when you first apply it, so just bear with it."

"I am a thick-skinned servant, I am not afraid... Ouch! Master, please be gentle!"

"See if you're still being stubborn." Xue Youli said this, and the movements of applying the medicine were obviously much lighter. "Banxia, ​​I'm sorry for making you suffer tonight."

What happened tonight was enough to make her realize that Murong Che's favor was far from enough, and power was her biggest weakness.

She is not afraid of conspiracy and plotting.

But what if a concubine with a higher rank than her like Shen Ruolan makes things difficult for her in the future?

In the harem, if one wants to use power to oppress others, there are many ways to kill people without bloodshed.

Banxia didn't care. "I was just slapped. I'll be fine soon after applying medicine. Unlike Yuzhu, she had blood all over her mouth when she was dragged out."

"She brought this upon herself, and you suffered an unprovoked disaster. How can you be the same?"

Xue Youli looked at the girl in front of him and said earnestly, "No matter who you meet or what happens in the future, you must take your life seriously. Do you remember?"

Banxia listened to her serious tone and nodded solemnly, "I'll remember it."

May 15th is the day every month when we need to go to Yonghe Palace to pay respects to Concubine Rong.

This time Xue Youli arrived very early and took Murong Xi's pulse.

"The little princess has recovered well. With proper care, she can slow down the frequency of asthma attacks."

"That's what the doctor said."

After hearing what Xue Youli said, Rong Qingyue felt relieved. "Sister Xue, thanks to you, Xier is feeling much better now."

As she spoke, she called Caixia over, and Caixia handed the red sandalwood carved flower box in her hand to Xue Youli, "Lady Xue, this is a little gift from my queen, please accept it!"

If this wooden box were put into modern times, it would be worthy of being exhibited in a museum.

Xue Youli looked at the bright red jade bracelet in the box and accepted it happily. "Thank you, Concubine Rong. I like it very much!"

Not long after, the concubines from the harem came over one after another, paid their respects to Concubine Rong, sat for a while, and then took their leave.

Xue Youli also left with Banxia.

As the master and servant were passing by Xuanyun Palace and were about to turn, they were suddenly bumped from behind.

Bang!

She didn't even cry out in pain, but the maid behind her was the first to scream, "Oh my Master! Where are you hurt?"

"Lady Xue bumped into me and my arm hit the wall. It hurts so much!"

"Why are you still standing there? Go get the doctor!"

Xue Youli listened to the exaggerated conversation between the master and servant, and turned to look at the identity card above the other's head.

[Name: Yin Xuan'er, 17 years old, daughter of Yin Hongxing, Duke of Shen, niece of Queen Mother Yin, and the highest ranking Zhaoyi among the newcomers entering the palace this time.]

This Yin Zhaoyi is an important supporting character in the original book, and is equally powerful as Xue Qingyao.

In the end, Xue Qingyao had to rely on the power of the male protagonist Murong Ye and finally killed Yin Xuan'er.

The moment Xue Youli's eyes met Yin Xuan'er's, she knew that this woman was coming for her.

The disparity in status between the two was too great. Even though she knew the other party did it on purpose, Xue Youli still bowed and apologized, "I did not mean to offend Empress Zhaoyi. Please forgive me!"

Yin Xuan'er was supported by her maid Qing He, and stared at Xue Youli with a scrutinizing look, "Lady Xue, you acted rashly and inappropriately. I will punish you to kneel here and pick beans, and reflect on yourself."

When Xue Youli heard that it was just picking beans, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If Yin Xuan'er couldn't stand Murong Che's excessive favoritism towards her and wanted to make her suffer a little, then that's not a big problem.

At this time, Qing He brought out a drawer-sized wooden box from Xuan Yun Hall, which contained a mixture of red beans and green beans. "My queen said that Lady Xue can only get up after she separates the red beans and green beans in the box."

Banxia immediately knelt beside Xue Youli and said, "I will help you pick..."

Qing He glanced at Ban Xia and added, "No one else can help."

Xue Youli quickly stated, "Please rest assured, Madam Zhaoyi, I will definitely pick it up myself and will never ask anyone else to do it for me."

Yin Xuan'er had heard a lot of rumors about Xue Youli recently, and thought that she would take advantage of her pampering and act coquettishly to confront her.

Then I can take advantage of the situation and give her a good beating with justification.

However, she did not expect that Xue Youli would be so obedient and kneel down to accept the punishment happily.

As someone who had read the original novel, Xue Youli had naturally predicted her prediction long ago.

[If you bully me, you are like cotton. It’s just a punishment to kneel, I kneel. It’s just picking beans, I pick them.]

Seeing Xue Youli kneeling on the ground and picking red beans and mung beans in an orderly manner, Yin Xuan'er sneered and walked straight into the gate of Xuanyun Palace.

The daughter of the Xue family is as timid as a mouse, always obeying orders and will never achieve anything.

Daddy, you really worry too much!

Banxia knelt beside Xue Youli, watching her picking beans one by one. She felt so distressed that her eyes turned red. "Master, how could Xue Zhaoyi be so difficult for me? It was clearly her who just now..."

"Pfft!"

Before she could finish her words, Xue Youli made a gesture to keep quiet, "Banxia, ​​the walls have ears, we must be careful with what we say and do outside."

Originally, Song Jingsi had been favored for five consecutive days, and everyone thought she had fallen out of favor. However, after Shen Ruolan ran to Lingyun Palace to catch an adulterer and was demoted, everyone thought that she was still Murong Che's favorite person.

If someone of a higher status than her is jealous of her favor, they will certainly find all kinds of reasons to bully her.

Yin Xuaner's punishment was already considered light.

If it were someone more cruel, he would have given her a severe beating on the pretext of insubordination.

So she had to hurry up and climb up.

The concubines in the harem competed for favor, some for power, some for love.

Compared to having a love affair with the emperor, it is more reliable to hold power in your own hands.

Without the protection of imperial power, once you offend someone, you may go to hell at any time.

Xue Youli knelt on the ground for nearly two hours before he separated the red beans from the green beans.

During this time, her brain was not idle either, she kept recalling the plot of the original novel.

Although many plots have changed because of her entry into the harem, according to the timeline, at the end of the year, there will be a famine in the Jiangnan area of ​​Jiuzhou Kingdom due to a severe drought.

Man-made disasters can be avoided, but natural disasters cannot be avoided.

In Jiuzhou, there are relatively few types of crops. Drought-resistant crops such as millet, sorghum, and buckwheat are not grown on a large scale.

In order to prepare for drought resistance in advance, Xue Youli plans to persuade Murong Che to promote these drought-resistant crops.

In order to find a suitable excuse, she limped to the library the next day with the support of Banxia, ​​without waiting for her knees to heal.

No one knew who spread the rumor that Murong Che would go to the library after leaving court.

Many of the concubines have never even seen the emperor, so how can they sit still?

After dressing up, they all ran to the library hoping to meet the emperor.

However!

When there are too many people, chaos tends to occur.

Just as people were wandering among the rows of bookshelves, a sudden scream broke the silence of the library.

"Someone come! Yin Zhaoyi fell down the stairs!"
