Chapter 10: Traveling through time and space to become a royal concubine, she turned the harem upside down (10)
"You, come here!"
Hu Xiaomeng noticed a palace maid in the crowd with a look of confusion and panic on her face, and directly asked her to step out.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, please spare me. I have done nothing wrong. I really have not done anything wrong."
The palace maid knelt down before the two ladies and begged for mercy. When she heard her master asking if anyone had lost their badge, she panicked when she thought of the strange things that had happened to her.
"Don't be afraid. Losing your badge doesn't mean you've done anything bad. Tell us honestly, have you ever lost your badge?"
Seeing the pale face of this cowardly palace maid, Hu Xiaomeng thought that she simply didn't have the courage to do anything bad.
"Reporting to the Imperial Concubine, the Imperial Concubine Lan, I am not sure if it has been lost.
One night when I was resting in my room, the Fifth Miss said she was bored in the palace and came to play with me.
I don’t know what happened later, but after talking to the fifth young lady for a few words, I fell asleep.
When I woke up, I saw Miss Five holding my badge. She said I had dropped it on the ground and she helped me pick it up.
It was just that the waist badge was stained with plaster, and I remembered that I hadn't touched plaster during that period, but when I saw that it was indeed my waist badge, I didn't pay much attention to it.
The palace maid told what had happened to her.
"When did it happen?"
Concubine Lan immediately asked someone to check the time, thinking of her half-sister whom she thought was very pitiful.
I can't believe that if she was the one behind everything, how much deep thought and careful planning must have been put into setting up such a perfect situation.
After various verifications, it was found that the maid who ordered Concubine Xian to stay in her palace that night should be Concubine Lan's concubine sister.
"Princess Lan, find a reason to summon your fifth daughter from your natal family to the palace tonight. I want to meet her in person."
Hu Xiaomeng couldn't wait to meet the time traveler. This woman had some brains.
Soon, Concubine Lan's concubine's sister was summoned into the palace. At first glance, she was an ugly and cowardly concubine with many spots on her face.
If you look more closely, you will find that the ugliness on her face is all fake.
There is no doubt that the weak, helpless and pitiful image is also a disguise.
"Fifth Miss, if I hadn't discovered your true identity tonight, you would have been looking for an opportunity to kill your elder sister and frame me.
As a result, the emperor's four concubines were either killed or sent to the cold palace by you.
Now it's your turn to shine. The concubine's daughter of the Minister of Works, who was famous in the capital for her ugliness, turned out to be a beautiful woman, as beautiful as the most beautiful woman in the capital, Lin Xier.
Because her biological mother was a concubine of low status, she had no power and gradually fell out of favor. She was marginalized everywhere in the Shangshu Mansion and could only hide her beauty.
She endured the heavy burden and finally one day she accidentally revealed her stunning beauty in front of the emperor, leaving the emperor stunned on the spot.
Who doesn't want a beautiful woman? So the romantic and amorous emperor took her into the palace.
Finally, the fifth daughter of the Minister of Works gained a firm foothold in the palace with her beauty and skills, and it was even possible that she would climb to the position of imperial concubine or queen.
After all, Lin Xier only has beauty but not brains, so how could she possibly be a match for our extremely intelligent Fifth Miss? "
Hu Xiaomeng told what she did in her previous life. Although she tried her best to hide it, her trembling fingers still revealed her anxiety.
Concubine Lan and the people in her palace all gasped when they heard this. Could the poor concubine that everyone thought of really have such a scheme?
"Sister, what is the Imperial Concubine talking about? Tong'er is so scared."
After hearing what Concubine De said, Yu Tong panicked and crawled towards Concubine Lan in fear.
She never thought that what she had been planning for so long would be seen through by Concubine De.
Is she a demon? How does she know everything?
"Afraid? How could someone like you be afraid?
This palace lady is really stupid. I am worried that you are being wronged in the mansion, so I invite you to stay in the palace every few days to give you a chance to make plans.
If it weren't for the Imperial Concubine Sister discovering all this today, the next person you would have harmed would have been me."
When she saw her half-sister crawling over, Concubine Lan kicked her away.
As soon as Concubine Lan kicked out, Yu Tong quickly got up from the ground and held a hairpin against her neck.
Everything happened so fast that no one could react. Hu Xiaomeng continued to sit there and drink tea calmly.
"Fifth Miss, please let go of Concubine Lan!"
When the people in Concubine Lan's palace saw that their master was being held hostage, they gathered around and shouted in panic.
"Get out of the way, or I'll kill her today."
Yu Tong pressed the pointed end of the hairpin tightly against Concubine Lan's neck.
Since her plan had been discovered by these powerful people, she had no choice but to give it a try and escape from the palace first before making any plans.
"Then kill her. I don't care whether Concubine Lan lives or dies."
As soon as Hu Xiaomeng finished speaking, everyone in Concubine Lan's palace was stunned. Is it really okay for the imperial concubine to be so direct?
"Sister Imperial Concubine, how could you treat me like this!"
Hearing what Concubine De said, Concubine Lan looked at her in panic and fear. She didn't expect her to speak her mind so blatantly.
“Oh my god…”
When Hu Xiaomeng said this, Yu Tong looked at her in surprise, and in a flash Lan Fei was rescued by her.
Then Yu Tong discovered that the hairpin in her hand was inserted into her neck by the imperial concubine.
"No……"
Yu Tong was extremely shocked. She covered her neck tightly and tried to fight with Hu Xiaomeng with her feet. How could she, a killer who traveled from modern times, give in so easily?
However, this time she met a powerful opponent, Hu Xiaomeng, and was crushed by the absolute strength.
Yu Tong didn't hold on for a few seconds before Hu Xiaomeng kicked her repeatedly, causing her to fall heavily to the ground and bleed profusely.
"Why? Why are there so many time travelers..."
Yu Tong fell to the ground and looked at Hu Xiaomeng unwillingly as she uttered these words. After she traveled from a killer to this world, she began to hide her strength and beauty.
The reason I wanted to enter the palace was not because I liked it so much, but because I wanted to have the power of life and death over others in this society where imperial power was supreme.
She thought that with her many aliases and knowledge of history, she would stand out in the harem.
Unexpectedly, God not only sent a time traveler like Bi'er who was ugly and brainless, but also sent a woman with strong martial arts skills like Concubine De.
Moreover, this woman had a good family background in that era, so it was no wonder that she quickly climbed to the position of imperial concubine after entering the palace.
Comparison is the thief of joy. Yu Tong eventually died with resentment and unwillingness. She considered herself unlucky to have met this time traveler.
"I thank you, Imperial Concubine, for saving my life!"
Lan Fei, who had come back to her senses from all these changes, thanked Hu Xiaomeng in a trembling voice.
Everything that happened tonight had a huge impact on her. She never expected that the cowardly half-sister she thought was actually a scheming and powerful martial arts person.
What he didn't expect was that Concubine De, whom he thought had average overall abilities, turned out to be such a powerful opponent.
After tonight, she would never think of going against the imperial concubine again. Saving her life was the most important thing.
"There's nothing to thank me for. Since you, my concubine sister, bribed the people in my palace, I must teach her a lesson."
After the matter was settled, Hu Xiaomeng turned around and returned to her palace. In a couple of days, she would have to take time to care about Ji Lin and Lin Xier.
