Xianxian tugged at Liu Zhen's sleeve, her knuckles turned slightly white, and one could imagine how much strength she used.

This made Liu Zhen quickly hold her hand in hers, and she held Liu Zhen's hand with both of her slender hands, relying on her strength to throw herself into his arms.

Because she was worried about Xianxian's belly, Liu Zhen protected her carefully.

"Your Majesty, I am reluctant to let you go to someone else's palace, even though I know that Your Majesty is unwilling. I don't need any wisdom, I just want to be with Your Majesty for a long time."

Her eyes were filled with tears, and the heat in her gaze made Liu Zhen feel hot all over. He couldn't help but protect her and hold her in his arms.

"Don't cry, I'll feel bad."

Liu Zhen wiped her tears carefully, her voice so gentle that it could make people sick.

But Xianxian choked and put her chin on his shoulder, her voice sounded a bit tearful, yet with an indescribable hint of coquettishness.

"Your Majesty cannot leave me. I don't want any such thing as being equally kind and generous. In my heart, Your Majesty is my husband and I am your wife."

"I don't care about status, I just want to be the woman in your majesty's heart, even if your majesty punishes me for speaking without restraint."

Xianxian calculated that Liu Zhen was really soft-hearted. Liu Zhen was still interested in her, not to mention that she was pregnant, so it was impossible for Liu Zhen to punish her.

Sure enough, Liu Zhen just gently stroked her back, and then put her hand on her slender belly and said helplessly.

"I can't bear to punish you. I knew your feelings from the beginning. I can't tolerate anyone else in my heart either. Please relax."

Xianxian sat up straight with a touched look on her face. Even though the tip of her nose was still red, her eyes were exceptionally bright.

"Your Majesty~"

She softened her voice and put her arms around Liu Zhen's neck. Her action was bold but not offensive.

Even when Concubine Zhen was in favor, she did not dare to make such a bold move. This shows the status of Xianxian in front of Liu Zhen.

Liu Zhen hugged her back with a doting look on her face and allowed her to make intimate gestures towards her.

"Your Majesty treats me very well."

The two of them were inseparable, and Aunt Bai was happy to see it happen. The more favored Xianxian was, the happier she would be.

Manager Li couldn't help but whisper beside Aunt Bai, "Aunt is still foresighted. The current Concubine Yuan is probably better than the original one."

Aunt Bai raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this, and it was obvious that she knew very well the person that Manager Li was talking about.

When Liu Zhen was in her teens, the niece of Empress Dowager Naruhito entered the palace as a companion to the princess. The young lady was pretty and beautiful, but only a few years later, Liu Zhen actually wanted to make her the queen.

The Queen Mother naturally disagreed. After all, she had already set her eyes on Gao Liumin, so she turned around and married the young lady directly.

Liu Zhen was very sad for a while because of the lady's marriage.

However, Liu Zhen was young at the time, and her arms were no match for her thighs, so she had to accept it even though she was unwilling.

I only heard Aunt Bai whisper, "That's all old news. There's no place for that person in the palace now."

"Yes, Auntie is right."

On the second day, Liu Zhen was on his way to court. He asked Li Zongguan, who was standing beside him, "Did anyone go to the Queen Mother and talk nonsense yesterday?"

Xianxian is the apple of Liu Zhen’s eye, so Manager Li naturally dared not hide anything from her.

"Your Majesty, yesterday the Empress and the ladies went to pay their respects to the Empress Dowager, and the Concubine Shu couldn't help but complain a few words."

Hearing that it was Concubine Shu who applied the eye drops, Liu Zhen sneered, "The last incident hasn't been solved yet, and she popped up again. Have you found out about the secret medicine?"

"Your Majesty, I have found that there is nothing unusual about Guo'er's family."

Then this matter was done by Concubine Shu. Liu Zhen touched the jade ring on his finger, with a cold light in his eyes.

Shufei's family background was not bad. She was the eldest daughter of the Minister of Revenue. She was not bad looking either. She grew up in a royal family. However, her brain was not very good and Liu Zhen had no idea what was going on with her.

I really don't understand how a man like the Minister of Revenue could raise such a stupid and brainless daughter.

Perhaps knowing his daughter's character, the Minister of Revenue asked about Concubine Shu's recent situation many times, and his words implied that he hoped Liu Zhen would be more tolerant.

But this matter involves Xianxian, and Liu Zhen will definitely not let it go lightly.

It's not just Liu Zhen who is investigating the secret medicine. Xianxian is also following up on the investigation. However, she knows very well who the mastermind is behind the scenes. Even though she knows that she can't find out clearly, she has almost guessed who did it.

Therefore, after Xianxian paid her respects, she asked Aunt Bai to hold her hand and stop Shufei beside Xiaoquan.

Seeing Xianxian actually standing in front of her, Concubine Shu took two steps back as if facing a great enemy. It can be seen that although she was stupid, she was still very cautious.

She was afraid that Xianxian would have a brain accident and use her belly to frame her. Thinking of this, Shufei wanted to lift her skirt and run away.

Xianxian looked at her with a smile and bowed, "I pay my respects to Sister Shufei. I wonder if I can have a word with you for a moment?"

"Talk? What do you have to say to me?"

At this moment, Concubine Shu's face was full of vigilance, as if Xianxian was going to pounce on her in the next second.

Not caring about Concubine Shu's caution, Xianxian just looked at her with a smile, and then played with the jade bracelet on her wrist with an indifferent expression.

"Sister, you may not know that you are about to be in great trouble."

"What do you mean?"

Xianxian looked at her and smiled gently, "A few days ago, my sister found some dirty things in the palace. When she looked behind these dirty things, she found that they were from Guo'er who died not long ago in my sister's palace."

"My younger sister knows my elder sister's character very well, so she naturally doesn't want to wrongly blame a good person. Now I can't help but remind my elder sister not to make wedding clothes for others."

When Concubine Shu first entered the palace, Xu Jiang'er was in favor. At that time, Concubine Shu was pregnant once, but she died out of nowhere.

These days, Xianxian has also realized that although Zhenpin looks like a cowardly and gentle woman, she actually often provokes Shufei's anger and is deliberately used as a weapon.

The queen looks dignified and generous, but in fact she is just sitting on the mountain and watching the fight between two tigers.

Shufei did have a bad mouth, but she was obviously not the real murderer behind the secret medicine.

Whether it is Concubine Shu or Concubine Xian who falls, it will be beneficial to the mastermind behind the scenes.

Xianxian will not let the other party get what they want.

"Guo'er?"

Shufei still had some impression of that second-class palace maid. She saw her holding the handkerchief tightly in both hands, with a hint of shock in her eyes.

Who could have thought that such a thing would actually be put in front of her.

At this time, her personal maid was whispering something in Shufei's ear, but Xianxian was no longer interested. She just wanted to give her a few reminders.

If Concubine Shu is too stupid to believe it, then she deserves it.

So Xianxian let Aunt Bai support her and turned to leave. When she walked a few meters away, Concubine Shu suddenly spoke.

"Thank you for reminding."

On this day, Liu Zhen rarely went to see Concubine Shu, but it was obvious that Concubine Shu had already prepared a response.

Three days later, Concubine Zhen was severely reprimanded, Princess Fuhua was held in the arms of Concubine Shu, and she was stripped of her title and demoted to a court lady, and moved to the most desolate and remote cold palace in the West Palace.

After dealing with all this, Liu Zhen came back, feeling cold and tired. Xianxian hurried forward and held his hand.

Her eyes were filled with heartache. "Your Majesty, why are your hands so cold? Even if you are busy with your affairs, Your Majesty should take care of your health."

Liu Zhen didn't say anything, but hugged Xianxian in his arms, unwilling to let go.

"She has changed."

It goes without saying that this "she" is naturally Xu Jianger, the woman who was once extremely loved by Liu Zhen.

But will Xianxian make Liu Zhen miss other women?

Xianxian struggled hard, and then said angrily, "Your Majesty, is the Xu official's daughter so important in your heart? Is she almost as important as me?"

When Liu Zhen saw Xianxian's face, she was stunned. Xianxian's delicate little face was full of sadness, her eyes were slightly red and full of tears. It was conceivable how sad she was.

"Your Majesty only has other women in his heart, and doesn't care about me and the baby in my belly at all."

"A woman who wants to harm me, do I have to comfort Your Majesty now that Your Majesty has come?"

Butler Li and Aunt Bai were both shocked. They really didn't expect Xianxian to be so bold.

Xianxian sat on the stool, biting her lower lip, her slender shoulders trembling slightly, obviously she was very angry.

Now Liu Zhen no longer felt sad. He felt very distressed seeing Xianxian like this, and he hurried forward.

"Xianxian, don't be angry. I was wrong. Stop crying. Don't get angry and hurt yourself."

Liu Zhen's comforting attempt was clumsy, but it was enough to shock Aunt Bai and Manager Li who were standing by.

Especially Manager Li, he really didn't expect that the serious Liu Zhen actually had such a gentle and patient side.

Although Liu Zhen was a benevolent king, he also had the same problems as most emperors.

Xianxian finally stopped crying, and snorted softly with red eyes and nose.

"Your Majesty, this is really funny. Didn't you just want me to comfort you? Isn't Your Majesty sad for that woman?"

"No, I really don't. You are the only one in my heart, Xianxian."

Liu Zhen coaxed Xianxian for a long time that night until she fell asleep due to fatigue. Liu Zhen looked at Xianxian's sleeping face with full tenderness in his eyes.

On the day when the women of the Xu official were sent to the cold palace, Xianxian received a rare visit from Concubine Shu.

The palace maid behind her was seen holding Princess Fuhua, and she looked at Xianxian with gratitude.

"Thank you for your reminder, otherwise I might never have discovered the wolf, Zhenpin... no, Xuguan girl."

It turned out that the child in Concubine Shu's belly was killed by the woman from Xuguan. In order to give birth to Liu Zhen's eldest son, the woman from Xuguan did not allow other women to get pregnant.

Even if she got pregnant by chance, Xu Guan's wife would do something bad to make her have a miscarriage.

Shufei lost her child, and after Xu Guannu fell from power, she snatched away his only daughter.

"That bitch Queen, even though it was Lady Xu who caused me to lose my child, she actually fanned the flames. She wants to raise Lady Xu's daughter? Is she worthy of that? I will not let her have her way!"

There was a fierce gleam in Concubine Shu's eyes, but it quickly disappeared because Princess Fuhua started crying.

Princess Fuhua was less than half a year old and was being held in the arms of a palace maid. Now that she was crying, Concubine Shu hurriedly took her away.

At this time, Aunt Bai brought a bowl of chicken soup. Since Xianxian became pregnant, her body has become increasingly thin. In order to nourish Xianxian's body, Aunt Bai stews chicken soup for her every day.

"Shufei is a powerful woman. She was able to kill the woman of Xuguan with one blow. It's a pity that the queen is still stable."

Xianxian stirred the chicken soup with a spoon, looking calm. "She retracted her claws quickly. Even if we did find her this time, there is no direct evidence that she was the one who did it."

As the heroine, how could Gao Liumin not be cautious?

After finishing the bowl of chicken soup, Xianxian wiped the corners of her mouth and said, "Aunt, what do you think the queen will do next?"

Xianxian had someone keep a close eye on the cold palace, and sure enough, when Xianxian was seven months pregnant, Gao Liumin went to the cold palace. No one knew what she was doing there.
