I swept the harem by pretending to be weak

Such a sudden and huge change would be very noticeable in the palace. Moreover, although Liu Zhirou had no children now, she was still one of the concubines who was highly valued by the emperor. It would be troublesome if someone saw her and became suspicious.

Moreover, for some reason, she was particularly concerned about Chuntao's experience. She intuitively felt that this was not a good thing and was unwilling to reveal it to others.

Liu Zhirou's inspiration is very strong now, and she also believes in the information she got in a flash of inspiration, so he decided to conceal the matter for the time being, and Chuntao naturally had no objection.

Although Chuntao was simple, she was not a fool. Except for the lady Liu Zhirou whom she had been serving, who treated her sincerely, the rest of the people who approached her were basically all for the purpose of taking advantage of her.

She thought that she did not have a beautiful appearance, nor did she have extraordinary scheming, and she could not survive in the palace on her own. She could only rely on Liu Zhirou to survive. As long as she served her wholeheartedly, she might be able to have a good future in the future.

Liu Zhirou took Chuntao to visit Ai Ziyi in a hurry, but was turned away on the way.

The person in charge of serving Ai Ziyi told them that the young lady had not woken up yet and asked them to come back later.

Liu Zhirou couldn't control her worry, so she simply sat down in the hall and prepared to wait for a while.

When Chuntao heard the other party say this, she immediately looked very dissatisfied, but when she saw Liu Zhirou's current appearance, she just curled her lips and finally said nothing.

Of course Liu Zhirou understood what Chuntao was thinking. She simply felt that Ai Ziyi had gained the emperor's favor and had become arrogant. She no longer cared about the sisters who used to support each other.

She was too lazy to explain the key points to Chuntao in detail, and she also knew that no matter what she said, she could not change Chuntao's stubborn thoughts. So she simply found a place, sat down and began to close her eyes and rest, but in fact her mind was transferred to the Cining Palace where the Queen Mother was.

This transfer really made her discover an incredible fact.

The Queen was different from the concubines and did know some things.

At this moment, she was worriedly saying to the Queen Mother: "If it wasn't really a big deal, I wouldn't dare to disturb you, but what Lady Lan said before really scared me. She said with certainty that the fetus in her belly was killed by the eunuch Wang Fuhai."

"But Wang Fuhai has been dead for more than ten years. How could he suddenly jump out of his grave and harm Lan Meiren's child? Moreover, I carefully asked the people serving around, and everyone said there was nothing unusual."

The Queen Mother listened quietly to what the Queen said, but her face showed no joy or anger. It was not until the Queen finished expressing her worries that she spoke slowly: "Queen, you are also an honest child. You believe everything others say?"

"Go check the backgrounds of the palace maids around Lady Lan. Maybe one of them is related to the remnant and is dissatisfied, so he pretended to be a ghost and harmed Lady Lan."

"Remember not to talk too much about supernatural things, and don't believe them. The dead cannot be resurrected, but it is very easy to find someone with a similar appearance to Wang Fuhai to impersonate him. Moreover, Lady Lan has never seen what Wang Fuhai looks like, so if a random eunuch who is unfamiliar to her comes in and claims to be Wang Fuhai, she won't be able to tell the difference."

The queen confessed her guilt without hesitation. She knew that the queen mother did not intend to investigate the matter any further. Naturally, she could only say that she was stupid and had been deceived by her subordinates. She was ready to find a few scapegoats to take the blame and let the matter be settled.

She didn't believe a word of what the Queen Mother said. If that was true, how could the late Queen, who was such a smart woman, let her two sons die young? And how could her eldest princess live like a madman for all these years?

There is nothing wrong with the emperor's health. Every year, several concubines in the palace become pregnant, but none of them give birth to and raise the baby successfully. If all the blame is put on the people under him having ulterior motives, then the palace is probably not a palace but a spy concentration camp.

If any rebel organization had such ability, why would they attack a group of women and children? Wouldn't it be faster to just kill the emperor directly?

But since the Queen Mother said that this was a supernatural talk and could not be investigated in detail, then she could only not investigate it in detail and deal with it casually. The Queen deeply understood that although she was also the master of the palace, her position was not stable after all. When the Queen Mother believed in her and the Emperor respected her, she was the Queen who was second to one person and above everyone else. If the Queen Mother did not believe in her and the Emperor did not respect her, then she was no different from an ordinary concubine. It was just a title, which sometimes not only did not bring her any benefits, but even brought her a catastrophe.
