I swept the harem by pretending to be weak

The core of Liu Zhirou's golden finger ability is to show weakness, making others think she is weak, but not making herself really that weak.

If she is weak, knows nothing, understands nothing, and foolishly just wants to die, then the accumulation of the energy bar will become very slow.

The reason why Liu Zhirou was able to accumulate energy quickly by accident was because there was a huge contrast between her appearance and her inner self. She looked like a weak and harmless little white rabbit, but in fact she was a big bad wolf that would choose its prey before it eats.

What's more advantageous is that she has a strong control over herself. She will not shrink back when facing things, but will make prompt decisions. She said it was a fake pregnancy, she said she would deal with Concubine Shu, and she said she didn't care about the emperor, so she didn't care about the emperor.

The first thing to do when you get ashore is to kill the person you love. Although there is no such thing as going ashore in such a place, the most important thing to do if you want to get along in a place like the harem is to let go of those unimportant feelings, whether it is love for the emperor, worry about family members, or pity for others.

So although she appeared to be very innocent and stupid on the surface, she was actually very busy. On the one hand, she tried to win over those who could be won over in the palace for support. On the other hand, she used her abilities to actively explore the secrets of the palace, trying to find out why this palace was so weird.

Liu Zhirou herself is not a person with a strong desire for control, but after arriving here, she found that it would be better for her to control some things. After all, she never knows when a terrible accident will happen.

Just like when she first came in, Concubine Shu was still the most favored concubine in the palace. But not long after entering the palace, Concubine Shu fell. Of course, it was because of Liu Zhirou's efforts, but more importantly, the emperor himself was tired of this concubine who was beautiful on the surface but actually had no brains, and he was also afraid of the family behind her, so he went with the flow and killed Concubine Shu on the grounds of murdering the prince.

If Liu Zhirou had not encountered this by accident, then there is a high possibility that even if she had not been pushed out as a scapegoat by Concubine Shu in the beginning, she would have been implicated by Concubine Shu's downfall in the future.

This palace is truly a cruel place where even high-ranking concubines have it so hard, let alone those unknown little concubines.

The emperor has taken many concubines into the palace over the years, but there are not many who are still alive and well. Those who are still alive and well either have a strong family background or extraordinary talents. If they have neither of these two, they can only try their luck.

Liu Zhirou knew that if she wanted to achieve her goal, she must not be an insignificant person. The speed of accumulating energy at home was far less than that in the palace. As a low-ranking concubine who had not yet been favored, the accumulation speed was also far less than after she was pregnant with the dragon fetus.

To draw more magical items, she must stand higher and receive more attention, but if her virtue is not worthy of her position, there will be disasters, and if her talent is not worthy of her position, she will suffer. She can look stupid, but she must not be really stupid.

This is also the direction that Liu Zhirou has been working on recently.

She has now accumulated three chances to draw a lottery, but considering that she is not facing any major crisis at the moment, she has saved them for the time being and has not drawn them. She plans to gradually figure out how her golden finger works by accumulating the number of times, which is very important to her.

But now it seems that she still has to use it when the time comes. Without the help of the golden finger, she is really not sure that she can make the emperor feel pity for Ai Ziyi.

White moonlight has always been the most unreasonable thing. Although the emperor seemed to be indifferent to the late queen, otherwise he would not have held a large-scale beauty pageant not long after the late queen's death, bringing in many newcomers to continue his offspring.

But we still have to consider what we should consider. Otherwise, if we just bring it up head-on, not only will it not help Ai Ziyi, it may also get ourselves into trouble.

But to be honest, Ai Ziyi didn't actually do anything to disrespect the late queen, and she lost the child she and the emperor had conceived together due to special reasons, so the emperor shouldn't be angry with her.

Maybe……

In fact, Liu Zhirou was not particularly sure, but she knew that she had no way out. If she did not help Ai Ziyi, Concubine Xian would be even less likely to be involved in such trouble, and it would be very difficult for Ai Ziyi to climb out of this deep pit.

In any case, when she first entered the palace, it was Ai Ziyi who first extended a friendly helping hand to her.

Liu Zhirou is a person who knows how to repay kindness. She cannot just watch her good friend sink in misery just because she has become successful.

If she really had no ability, or if helping Ai Ziyi would bring her a particularly serious price, then it would be fine, but the price she paid would not be very high. Even if she really angered the emperor, the worst that would happen would be that she would fall out of favor.

But she is not from here, and she does not rely entirely on the emperor's favor to live.

What's more, she is now nominally the Empress Dowager's person. Even the Emperor would not lose face for the Empress Dowager at this critical juncture. At most, he would scold her and make her life difficult in the Empress Dowager's palace.

But this is not a difficult problem to solve. As long as she uses the reward she got from the first draw and controls her pulse to fake pregnancy once, she can still raise her status.

In that case, what are you still hesitating about? Take the gamble!

Liu Zhirou consoled Ai Ziyi a little more and then left leisurely. The next day, she brought the sweet-scented osmanthus cake she made herself to ask for an audience with the emperor. The emperor did not make any trouble and happily let her in.

"My beloved concubine, why are you here? Don't tell me yet, let me guess." The emperor smiled and gently touched Liu Zhirou's forehead with his finger. "Are you here for the matter of Lady Lan?"

Liu Zhirou stared at the emperor in a daze, seemingly unable to react at all. After a long while, she finally found her voice: "Your Majesty is truly a master of foresight."

"That's nothing. Come, sit down, sit down, don't be restrained. There are very few people in this palace who are as loyal and righteous as you." The emperor seemed very satisfied with what she did.

"I do not deserve your praise, Your Majesty. Although Concubine Lan made some mistakes, she is pregnant with the dragon fetus after all. Now she has suffered such a blow. I hope for your mercy day and night." Liu Zhirou carefully organized her tone and tactfully expressed her purpose to the emperor.
