Murong Wan woke up with a start, her head covered in sweat.
The next day, news that she was pregnant with a freak spread throughout the palace.
The emperor also learned of this and wanted to visit her, but after hearing that the freak was an ominous sign, he ultimately did not go.
Murong Wan went mad from then on, crying and laughing all day long.
She lived like a concubine in a cold palace.
Muqing Palace has become a place that no one goes to.
Speaking of the previous dynasty.
Murong Fuhai and Qin Xianling were both determined to defeat each other and seize the position of prime minister.
Even their daughters had lost power in the harem.
The power struggles between them, both overt and covert, have yet to end.
On this day, Qin Xianling happened to see the Crown Prince leaving Murong Fuhai's residence.
It's suspected that they might be colluding.
I was just about to submit a memorial to His Majesty, impeaching them.
Unexpectedly, on the same day, the Ministry of Justice led a group of people to his residence and arrested him.
They also broke open his warehouse where he usually kept his treasures and found a large amount of gold hidden in the walls.
"Murong Fuhai, you dare to arrest me? Let me go!"
"I am here on the Emperor's orders to confiscate your property. You are in charge of the national treasury, but you are lending money at exorbitant interest rates, enriching yourself, and accepting bribes. His Majesty has ordered that your property be confiscated and you be exiled!"
"I refuse to accept this! I am guilty, but you are not innocent either. You dragged me down for the sake of the prime minister's position. You and the crown prince met in secret at the residence, which must have been an act of rebellion!"
They brought the matter to His Majesty's attention.
Call Xie Ling out for a confrontation.
However, he was only discussing with Murong Fuhai that the criminal law had not been updated for a long time.
I was ordered by His Majesty to go to his residence to discuss this matter.
Enraged, Li Shengyuan ordered the entire Qin family to be beheaded, and all others to be exiled.
Qin Xianling collapsed to the ground in despair.
The position of Prime Minister will likely soon fall to Murong Fuhai, while the position of Minister of Justice can be handed over to his assistant.
The imperial harem.
Upon hearing of this drastic change, Qin Miaomiao was dragged out and her palace was searched before she could even be shocked.
Originally, the intention was simply to assign her to be a maid, out of consideration for the fact that she had served the emperor.
Unexpectedly, they found a box under her bed containing a small straw figure.
The clothes she was wearing also had Murong Wan's birth date and time written on them.
The emperor was furious and ordered the execution of everyone in her palace.
Although only one maid was left, seeing that Qin Miaomiao had lost power, she still chose to betray her mistress in order to save her own life.
Thus, Qin Miaomiao's affair with the guard behind the emperor's back could no longer be kept secret.
Li Shengyuan was so angry his eyes turned green.
"What did you say? Qin Miaomiao, how dare you! Guards! Didn't the Ministry of Justice develop a new batch of torture instruments? Arrest her and that adulterer and put them to the torture of branding with hot irons!"
Qin Miaomiao felt utterly heartbroken and didn't care how the emperor treated her.
Before being dragged away, she cursed the emperor with venomous resentment: "Li Shengyuan, you will definitely die a horrible death!"
The guard was cowardly and afraid of death, so he committed suicide out of fear of punishment. The emperor was furious and even though he was dead, he wanted to drag his body away and whip it.
The sound of Qin Miaomiao's screams terrified everyone in the execution ground.
When Mi Shan learned of this news, she frowned deeply and felt extremely saddened.
"Unexpectedly, even after being reborn, she still couldn't escape this fate."
"Perhaps, in her past life, she wasn't killed by Bai Lingyu because of that dress, but because of Qin Xianling's troubles. Given her restless nature, even without that incident, something else would have happened."
However, such a death was far too gruesome.
"The emperor hated betrayal the most."
"If he finds out... about Xie Ling and me." Mi Shan pondered, a dark glint in her eyes.
"Perhaps, one day, her fate will be my fate."
Mi Shan absolutely cannot let this happen.
Let's count the days.
Three more days.
At that time, we absolutely cannot allow any accidents to happen.
Let's kill the emperor first, and we'll deal with the rest later.
Although she hasn't collected all the Turtle Breath Pills yet, if Xie Ling becomes emperor, she can still rely on him for a while by using the Gu worms.
What she didn't know was that another situation might occur on the night of the full moon.
Perhaps she had fallen for Xie Ling and overlooked the danger he posed; he was a cold-blooded animal.
-
today.
It was the day of the imperial examination.
Li Shengyuan chose the hunting grounds as the location.
Mi Shan specifically asked him to bring her along.
She wanted to see Achan win the victory with her own eyes.
He wanted to see Zhang Jianyue perish with his own eyes.
As expected, Achan won the martial arts championship with outstanding results, while Zhang Jianyue didn't even get the title of Jinshi (a successful candidate in the highest imperial examinations), and the emperor left an edict.
Achan was promoted to Commander of the Imperial Guards, leading the Imperial Guards, and was a first-rank minister.
Zhang Jianyue could either stay and serve in the army, or become an ordinary guard in the harem.
Zhang Jianyue thought for a moment and chose the latter, her gaze falling on Mi Shan's face as he sat in the sedan chair.
After it ended.
The next day, the emperor held a ceremony to confer the title of imperial concubine upon Mi Shan.
In the afternoon, Mi Xiuyan's entire family was able to enter the palace to see her, and Zhang Jianyue shamelessly seized the opportunity.
Upon seeing Mi Shan, he fawned over her, while Mi Fen, standing to the side, watched with cold eyes and remained silent.
Perhaps she had lost all hope in this man, and had no desire to compete with Mi Shan anymore.
patio.
Mi Shan and Mi Fen stood together.
"Do you understand now? A person like him is not worth choosing at all."
"I don't understand. Why did he treat me like this? What is it about me that I don't do as well as you do?"
"Are you wondering why, in our past life, he and I were able to live such a good life, while you and he suffered so much injustice?"
With no one around, Mi Shan stopped hiding his true intentions and spoke frankly.
Mi Fen was shocked, her eyes trembling: "You, you knew all this? You were also reborn?"
