Chapter 310 There's a Time Traveler in the Palace

Princes aged 5 to 18 lived in a special princes' quarters within the palace.

They would only move to a special residence outside the palace after they were officially appointed at the age of 18 or 9.

Although the emperor worked diligently year after year, he only had six sons in total.

One of them was one year old, and the other was four years old; both were still being raised in their birth mother's palace.

He was a prince in his early twenties. He was unruly and disobedient, and was granted the title of prince at a young age and moved to his own fiefdom.

The three princes who remained in the palace were all about the same age as Mo Chan.

Among them was Wei Qin's son, Huang Yanqin.

Huang Yanqin is also 15 years old this year, the same age as Mo Chan.

Unlike his two younger brothers, Huang Yanqin was very resistant to Mo Chan's advances.

Huang Yanqin inherited the best physical features from his father and mother. He is elegant and handsome, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. He is a charming young man.

However, he has a cool and aloof personality, is calm and reserved, and rarely smiles. He is quite mature for his age.

Even when facing his own mother, Huang Yanqin rarely showed any emotion.

Wei Qin placed all her hopes on this son.

Compared to the emperor who possesses countless beauties, Huang Yanqin is Wei Qin's true world, and the source of all her future hopes.

But one day, that expectation collapsed.

Mo Chan, disheveled and weeping, complained to the Emperor that Huang Yanqin had attempted to assault her.

Not long ago, many people in the palace saw Mo Chan running out of Huang Yanqin's bedroom in a panic.

The emperor was furious and ordered Huang Yanqin to be flogged fifty times.

The "fifty strokes of the cane" mentioned here doesn't refer to fifty lashes. Rather, it means that breaking a wooden board counts as one stroke.

Normally, they would only receive a dozen or twenty strokes of the cane, but fifty strokes would leave no chance of survival.

Upon hearing the news, Wei Qin disregarded everything and rushed to the execution ground, weeping and begging the emperor for mercy.

She knew her son well; she knew that Huang Yanqin would never touch Mo Chan.

But the emperor ignored her completely and instead had his eunuchs hold her up.

How could Wei Qin, a frail woman, possibly break free from the constraints imposed by those eunuchs?

With her eyes wide with fury and tears streaming down her face, she watched the entire execution process from the sidelines.

During this time, Mo Chan stood beside the Emperor, and when no one was watching, a smug smile appeared on her face.

Huang Yanqin is dead.

After that, Wei Qin was relegated to the sidelines.

Her health was already poor, and the environment in the Cold Palace was incomparable to what it used to be.

Overwhelmed with grief after witnessing the death of the most important person in her life, Wei Qin soon fell ill and became bedridden.

In the final stages of her life, the emperor issued an incomprehensible imperial edict.

He announced the dismissal of the harem, leaving only Mo Chan.

Keep in mind that he had nearly a thousand women in his harem. Sending them all away left them with virtually nowhere to go.

Who would dare to accept a woman the emperor had previously slept with?
Moreover, half of them were common women, and the other half came from families that held only minor official positions.

Many families cannot afford to support another woman, nor are they willing to add the burden of another woman who cannot get married.

The Emperor's actions were tantamount to cutting off the lifeline of these thousand women.

Led by the other three concubines, they pleaded, cried, and shouted in various ways, but they could not shake the emperor's cold and hard heart.

He seemed to be bewitched, stubbornly going his own way.

Finally, unable to bear the harassment any longer, he even ordered the palace guards to drive him away and beat him.

Many women died as a result. Wei Qin was later thrown out of the cold palace by the guards.

Before her family arrived, Wei Qin died.

Task panel:

1. Save Huang Yanqin's life so that he can have a means to make a living. 0/1, complete the task to gain 500 points of power.

2. Make Mo Chan pay the price she deserves. 0/1, completing the task grants 200 points of Time Power.

3. Take revenge on Huang Tinghe; don't let him get away with it. [0/1, completing the task grants 300 Time Power.]

After sorting through Wei Qin's memories, Yu Muhuai quickly discovered Mo Chan's secret.

This is a secret that the original owner, Wei Qin, could not know, because Wei Qin had never traveled through time.

Mo Chan's inner core has been replaced.

Moreover, the person in question is a modern individual from a technologically advanced society.

In her previous life, Mo Chan would occasionally come up with some strange and unusual ideas, and sometimes she would say some inexplicable words that were hard to understand.

That's because she came from another time.

This person who traveled from another time inexplicably possessed a very strong sense of superiority.

She felt that everyone here was a stubborn, old-fashioned person who was no match for her in terms of thought, knowledge, and so on, which was why they were so ostentatious.

Despite the emperor's favor, she showed no restraint.

Yu Muhuai arrived on the last day that Mo Chan was injured and fell into a coma.

She will wake up tomorrow, and her inner core will be replaced. Before long, she will enjoy the Emperor's favor and become the only one among countless beauties.

After drinking the bitter Chinese medicine, Yu Muhuai wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief.

She was thinking, why not take advantage of Mo Chan's unconscious state today and find an opportunity to kill her? That would surely be the fate she deserved, right?
Immediately, Yu Muhuai stood up and moved around a bit, only to discover that his body was truly frail.

However, because she comprehended the Soul Star, her soul power gradually grew stronger and was able to affect her body.

Therefore, her physical condition is much stronger now than when Wei Qin was around.

However, his foundation was too weak, and even if he improved a bit, he was still far from meeting Yu Muhuai's ideal standard.

With her current weak physique, in this heavily guarded palace, let alone assassinating Mo Chan, she probably wouldn't even be able to get close to her bedchamber.

After all, this is the emperor's most beloved person, someone he cherishes dearly and treats with utmost care.

Big White: What does it contain?
Yu Muhuai: Don't make things up out of thin air.
Since this idea won't work, we can only proceed gradually.

The priority now is to get my health back in good shape.

According to my memories from my previous life, Huang Yanqin's accident will likely occur in about three months.

There is still enough time.

Qingyue, standing to the side, was dumbfounded. She watched as her master stood up and stretched, wondering what he was doing.

This was something the master had never done before.

"Your Majesty, are you feeling unwell?"

Seeing Qingyue's puzzled expression, Yu Muhuai coughed lightly.

“I am fine,” she said, taking a few steps forward and sitting on the couch. “Qingyue, bring me some writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone. I have some things to tell you.”

Qingyue responded and then withdrew.

The palace where Yu Muhuai is currently staying is called Wanle Palace, which means "always happy and joyful".

When Wei Qin first entered the palace, she was also very much favored by the emperor. The emperor bestowed Wanle Palace upon her, and for a long time afterward, he visited Wanle Palace every day.
