Chapter 74 It’s Not Impossible
Liu Zhiyuan felt a chill.
If she hadn't seen with her own eyes how Xiao Yu wanted to kill her, she would probably have believed it.
Although Xiao Yu's attitude towards her seemed to have changed a lot for unknown reasons, the assassination on the way to Yuzhou and the murderous sword thrown at her by Xiao Yu was simply a nightmare.
If she hadn't reversed quickly enough, the body would be covered in grass by now.
No one has that memory, but she does.
"I thought the emperor suddenly rushed to Wanshou Palace to save the queen, and it was you who went to inform the emperor." Jin Fu said.
Yin Bao smiled and said, "I was planning to go find the emperor, but the emperor came here on his own."
Liu Zhiyuan frowned, "Didn't he tell me why he came to see me?"
"No, how could the emperor and the queen tell this servant about this?"
That's strange.
Xiao Yu went to Wanshou Palace to find her, didn't say anything, just sent her back and left.
baffling.
Jin Fu smiled and said, "Perhaps the Emperor and the Empress are in sync. He sensed that something had happened to the Empress and came to see her specially."
True love without a doubt!
Yin Bao, "It's also possible that the Emperor simply missed His Majesty and came to see her. After all, a day without seeing her feels like three years."
It’s been a long time since we last met.
Liu Zhiyuan was speechless. The more he talked, the more outrageous it became.
Jinfu was pouring tea and nodded in agreement. Her hand slipped and the teapot fell. She quickly caught it, turned the scalding hot teapot in her palm, and placed it steadily on the table without spilling a drop of tea.
He looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he continued to pour water as if nothing had happened.
Liu Zhiyuan saw everything from the corner of his eyes, "..."
Look, and ask her how she found out.
She would have to be blind to not see such obvious skills.
I don't know what Xiao Yu wants to do by placing a palace maid who knows martial arts next to her. Surveillance? Protection?
She thinks it's the former.
It doesn't matter. As long as a person is upright, he has nothing to fear. There is nothing to be afraid of.
In one night, the Empress Dowager summoned Concubine Liu to the Wanshou Palace. The Emperor went to pick Concubine Liu up personally and put the Empress Dowager under house arrest. The news spread like wildfire throughout the harem.
Even Concubine Chen, who was punished by the Empress Dowager to copy Buddhist scriptures, heard about it.
"What did you say? The emperor placed my aunt under house arrest because of Liu Zhiyuan?"
The kneeling maid shuddered and knocked her head to the ground, "Yes, Madam."
"hateful!"
Concubine Chen threw the brush in her hand at the palace maid, and black ink smeared all over the palace maid's face. She closed her eyes suddenly, but did not dare to wipe it with her hands.
Concubine Chen stood up and paced back and forth anxiously.
How could this happen? Has the Chen family completely lost its power? Otherwise, why would the emperor not even care about my aunt?
It was obvious that he was still a little wary before, and even though he was at odds with the Chen family, he did not directly break off relations with them.
At least on the surface they will pretend that everything is fine.
And now, the emperor seems to no longer intend to tolerate the Chen family.
What should I do?
And there is Liu Zhiyuan, damn Liu Zhiyuan, the emperor is not interested in women, why did Liu Zhiyuan suddenly catch his eye!
It seems that ever since Liu Zhongyuan was imprisoned and Liu Zhiyuan went to the emperor to plead for mercy, the emperor's attitude towards Liu Zhiyuan has changed.
Concubine Chen was filled with regret. She was wrong. This move was wrong again.
She shouldn't have instigated Liu Zhiyuan to plead with the emperor, or even earlier, her father shouldn't have sent Liu Zhiyuan to the palace.
Su Tao asked the palace maid kneeling on the ground to step back, dismissed the palace servants, and walked to Concubine Chen.
"My lady, what should we do now?"
Concubine Chen stopped and said, "Where is my father? Let him enter the palace."
Su Tao said awkwardly, "Your Majesty, the Emperor has ordered that the Prime Minister is not allowed to enter the palace during this period."
Concubine Chen looked anxious. Since her father could not enter the palace, she had no way to contact the outside world and was trapped in the harem.
Now that the Queen Mother is under house arrest, she has lost the power to manage the harem. The situation is extremely unfavorable.
"The only way now is to take back the right to manage the harem. Otherwise, I will be suppressed everywhere and unable to move forward." Concubine Chen murmured to herself.
However, Yan Ruyu is the daughter of General Yan, has a noble status, and is also skilled in martial arts, so she is not so easy to deal with.
Concubine Chen sat down with a serious expression.
Su Tao moved closer to her and whispered in her ear, "Your Majesty, I heard a rumor that the Imperial Concubine..."
The sound became lower and lower, and finally only the two of them could hear it.
Concubine Chen's face was filled with shock, her eyes brightening, "Is this true?"
"I don't know whether it's true or not. It was Xiao Fuzi from Yingxue Palace who secretly told me. Xiao Fuzi once worked in the Imperial Noble Consort's palace, so his words should be true."
Chen Gui suppressed the excitement in his eyes and said, "Send someone to keep an eye on Fuqing Palace. If Yan Ruyu makes any unusual movements, notify me immediately!"
This time, she must bring Yan Ruyu down, and then even the emperor won’t be able to protect her!
"Ache!"
"Ache!"
"Ache!"
Yan Ruyu, who was embroidering a swan, sneezed three times in a row.
Liu Zhiyuan looked up, "Are you sick?"
"No, I'm in good health."
She is the daughter of a military commander and has been trained since she was young, so her body must be in great shape.
Although he became quite lazy after entering the palace and did not insist on daily training, he would still practice martial arts every once in a while and never got sick.
"Then why do you sneeze so much?" Liu Zhiyuan asked casually.
She picked up a handkerchief that Yan Ruyu had just embroidered. The big white duck on it was crooked, with one eye bigger than the other, and it looked so ugly.
I can’t imagine how embarrassed Zhou Lang, as Yan Ruyu mentioned, would be to carry such an ugly handkerchief with him.
"Maybe someone is cursing me behind my back. It's okay. I'm thick-skinned, so I'll let them curse."
She can't hear me anyway, so cursing at me won't hurt me.
"Have you offended anyone?"
Yan Ruyu glanced at her and said, "What are you talking about? There is no concubine in the harem who has never offended someone. Do you think you haven't offended anyone?"
"I didn't offend them. I've never even met them."
There are so many concubines in the harem, and she doesn't know any of them except Yan Ruyu and Concubine Chen.
Seeing her nonchalant attitude, Yan Ruyu rolled her eyes. "Don't you know that where there are women, there are disputes? The news that the Emperor confined the Queen Mother yesterday because of you has spread throughout the harem. Now I don't know how many concubines are jealous of you behind your back."
She laughed evilly and said, "Be careful, someone might come to harm you."
The methods used by the women in the harem are hard to guard against.
Liu Zhiyuan curled her lips. She was not really scared. After all, with the system in hand, the world was hers.
Yan Ruyu finished embroidering another handkerchief and handed it to Liu Zhiyuan. "Is it beautiful?"
Liu Zhiyuan: "...Not bad, great progress."
At least the two eyes are the same size, but one leg is longer than the other, and one wing is missing.
Yan Ruyu didn't hear the hidden meaning in her words, "That's good, I'll give it to Zhou Lang in a couple of days."
Liu Zhiyuan's expression was indescribable. This handkerchief was so shabby.
"By the way, are you really going to marry Zhou Kang in the future?"
"Of course." Yan Ruyu said with a look that said, "Isn't this nonsense?" "Zhou Lang and I fell in love at first sight, and we fell in love again. He treats me so well. If I don't marry him, who should I marry? You?"
