I swept the harem by pretending to be weak

After listening to what Eunuch Lu said, Biyun calmed down.

People are always like this, tending to believe things that are beneficial to them, and tending not to believe things that are not beneficial to them. From her own experience and Ai Ziyi's experience, Liu Zhirou has vaguely guessed that the emperor who is high above does not seem to value offspring as much as they imagined, and it is even possible that he does not want his son to be born.

Although she didn't understand how this unreasonable thing happened, at least she was willing to believe this fact. However, Biyun didn't have such keen observation skills, or rather, her experience was not enough to imagine that deeply.

Biyun did not love the emperor, but she loved the wealth and splendor he brought her. It was also because of this that she easily forced herself to believe what Eunuch Lu said, and hoped that she could give birth to the emperor's first son.

But she soon thought of another layer, and asked with a little worry: "But Empress Xianfei and Empress Chenfei are also pregnant, and Empress Chenfei is much older than me. If they give birth to the emperor's eldest son first, what should we do?"

She looked at Eunuch Lu with hope, and Eunuch Lu did not disappoint her: "It counts only if you can get pregnant and give birth to the baby!"

"Empress Chen had a miscarriage in her early years, which hurt her body. Even if she gets pregnant and gives birth to a child, it will probably be a sickly baby. As for Concubine Xian, you don't have to worry about it. She has been sick all year round, so how could she have the strength to give birth to a child? It won't be long before you hear that she has had a miscarriage naturally."

"My lady, you should know that there has never been peace in this palace. You have received this honor because the emperor has taken a liking to you. What you should do now is to rest and take care of yourself. Do you understand?"

"As for the rest, it's all about giving birth to the baby. If you can't bring this baby into the world safely, then you're doomed!"

Eunuch Lu scolded Biyun a few words in a stern tone, then left on his own without even taking the reward that Biyun had prepared long ago. This really made Biyun worried for a long time.

But she also knew that the most taboo thing for a pregnant woman is to think too much, so she forced herself to ignore this unusual thing and take care of the baby peacefully.

Liu Zhirou was indeed constantly concerned about various things in the palace, but she did not pay too much attention to this former subordinate.

Liu Zhirou remembered that according to his time-traveling sister Liu Zhijin, Biyun, whose original name was Qiuju, was a very important character and could even be called the heroine of the novel.

But she was skeptical about this matter. After all, in the mouth of her sister Liu Zhijin, who was a time traveler, this was a normal world of palace fighting. The emperor discovered the beauty of the little white flower heroine, and then worked hand in hand with her, and finally defeated several villains, swept away some powerful officials, and then lived sweetly together.

But what she saw was not what she thought it was. The strange phenomena on the emperor, the empress dowager, and the weird atmosphere in the entire palace all told her that this was definitely not an ordinary world with an ancient background, and it was even less likely to revolve around the love story between a man and a woman.

Compared to the scripts she heard from others, Liu Zhirou was more inclined to believe everything she saw and everything she found out. Moreover, from the moment they traveled here, this world could no longer present that original state.

She can travel through time and space, and Liu Zhijin can also travel through time and space, so why can't others travel through time and space?

This place might have turned into a big chaotic world, but Liu Zhirou didn't care. She just wanted to know when she could find a way home from the capsule machine. Although she knew that the hope was very slim, she shifted her attention to some of the powers that already existed in this world.

Her current focus is still on the Queen. As one of the three giants in the palace, the Queen is the easiest to dig out unusual things. The unusual things with the Queen Mother include a Buddha statue with a dark light, and the unusual things with the Emperor include a white fox that she saw when he was sleeping with him. Only the Queen has not seen anything particularly difficult to understand.

Liu Zhirou was a little scared to confront the Emperor and the Queen Mother directly. She felt that it was not exploring the secret but seeking death.

As the saying goes, pick the softest persimmons to squeeze. Although it doesn't sound so nice, it does make sense.

Liu Zhirou also looked to the Queen for a breakthrough, trying to get some secrets of the palace from her.

She intuitively felt that the queen must know something important and have certain extraordinary qualities. Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain how she, an ordinary concubine with an obscure background, could defeat the prominent concubines Shufei and Xianfei and ascend to the throne of queen.

But she hid it very well and never showed it at all when facing the concubines. Only when she visited the Emperor and the Empress Dowager could one occasionally see her worry about the current situation in the harem.

This worry was not just about her own poor KPI performance. Liu Zhirou could assert that the Queen was also afraid of something.

But the problem was that Liu Zhirou didn't know what the queen was afraid of. To be honest, this queen was not particularly competent, but she was definitely a good boss. She didn't like to make trouble, nor did she like to take action against pregnant concubines. She even took good care of these concubines and tried to help them give birth to the emperor's children.

Although the Emperor did not have any particular admiration for him, he generally respected him. The Empress Dowager was occasionally dissatisfied with him, thinking that he was too weak and easily influenced by others, and could easily be instigated by others to cause trouble.

But in the end, the Queen Mother did not say anything particularly distasteful about her.

In terms of offspring, although the queen did not have a son of her own, she at least gave birth to a daughter, which contributed to the continuation of the royal family. Speaking of not having a son, none of the concubines in the harem gave birth to a son, but this is not enough to be a reason for others to blame the queen.

Similarly, the queen was honest and never interfered in state affairs, which meant that she did not receive too much criticism in the previous dynasty.

So why was the queen so frightened? It was as if something was threatening her life at all times.

Especially as time went by, Liu Zhirou found that her fear and anxiety seemed to become more serious. She couldn't sleep well all night, or even if she fell asleep, she would wake up quickly.

Liu Zhirou had previously considered whether the ghost she had manipulated had some special aura that disturbed the queen. After all, there was a folk rumor that ghosts and humans could not live under the same roof for a long time. So she deliberately sent the ghost to another place, and even helped drive away the ghost that was originally lingering in the queen's palace.

But it was of no use. When she asked for news again the next night, she still heard from the queen's personal maid that the queen had a migraine attack and had difficulty sleeping for half the night.
