I swept the harem by pretending to be weak

"Who did you say is here?" Ai Ziyi turned her head and asked in surprise.

The maid beside her hurriedly said respectfully: "It's Miss Liu who the emperor brought back recently."

"Why did she come to see me? What do I have to do with her? Ask her to leave." Ai Ziyi was already impatient. All she was thinking about now was killing Wang Fuhai, or at least making Wang Fuhai pay a huge price for this. Everything else could be put aside, even the child in Cuizhi's belly. What about an ordinary girl with whom she had no relationship?

Although Liu Zhilan is Liu Zhirou's younger sister, Ai Ziyi has never confused the two.

Liu Zhirou was her good sister and the one she supported in the palace, but Liu Zhilan was not.

What's more, Liu Zhilan's entry into the palace was almost strange. Ai Ziyi couldn't help but wonder whether she did something by taking advantage of her sister Liu Zhirou's favor. After all, her appearance could only be described as pretty, and it was far from the average line of the talent show. If it weren't for the fact that her sister was Liu Zhirou, Ai Ziyi really had no way of imagining what the emperor saw in her.

Ai Ziyi therefore had no good intentions towards her, and almost everyone serving in Qixiang Palace knew this.

But the maid hesitated and said, "That Miss Liu said that you should allow her to come in and report something because of her good relationship with her sister, Concubine Chun. She found a big problem in Yong'an Palace."

Ai Ziyi frowned when she heard this. Although she didn't think that a little girl like Liu Zhilan could discover any shocking secrets from Yong'an Palace, when she thought of Liu Zhirou's calmness and rationality which was different from her peers, Ai Ziyi had to tilt the scale in her heart towards belief.

What's more, Wang Fuhai hasn't come yet, and she has nothing to do, so she might as well meet this Miss Liu.

So she was just about to order the maid to bring the person in, when suddenly another maid with a panicked look came in, walked quickly to her side, and told her that a strange palace maid was coming with the eldest princess, the queen, and the virtuous concubine.

Ai Ziyi was really confused. What had happened to her today that so many people came to see her.

Although Ai Ziyi didn't want to deal with so many irrelevant people, she thought that except for Liu Zhilan who currently had no position and could be dismissed at will, the other two were either seniors with higher status than her or more seniority than her, so it was impossible not to meet them.

So Ai Ziyi had no choice but to comfort Cuizhi with a few words, then went outside and asked someone to invite a few people in.

Ai Ziyi was about to greet them and exchange a few polite words when she saw them. The strange maid spoke without caring about the status of the people. "We have come here today, so let's not talk too much. I know what Concubine Lan is planning now, and I can tell you clearly that it is impossible."

"Why?" Ai Ziyi was immediately displeased when she heard this. She even forgot to ask the other party where the news came from. After all, it was not difficult to get this news. Those who were slightly well-informed in the palace knew that Ai Ziyi hated Wang Fuhai to the core. The reason why she made so much fanfare today, with magic weapons and other things, was most likely to target Wang Fuhai.

But what the other party said really touched Ai Ziyi's sore spot. She was about to yell, but when she saw that the Queen and Concubine De who came in with them both looked absent-minded, she held back her anger.

Ai Ziyi asked unhappily: "Who are you?"

A'man replied calmly: "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is what kind of future you want, Concubine Lan."

"Is it interesting to talk about such weird things?" Ai Ziyi felt even more disgusted after hearing this, and couldn't help but retort.

If Ai Ziyi had not been afraid of the Queen and Concubine De sitting beside her, she would have been furious and vented her anger.

A'man was not disappointed or annoyed when he saw Ai Ziyi like this. He was still calm and said softly, "I know how Wang Fuhai, who you wanted to deal with, is doing now. He should have completely disappeared from the world now."

"Oh, why?" Ai Ziyi inexplicably wanted to believe the woman in front of her, but her reason kept reminding her that she had no relationship with her and she had no reason to help her. Even if she was entrusted by someone to deliver a message, it might not be out of kindness.

But the words spoken by this woman seemed to have real magic that could penetrate into people's hearts, making Ai Ziyi instinctively unwilling to doubt them.

A'man continued, "If I'm not mistaken, the person who did it should be your sister, Concubine Chun. Concubine Chun is a capable person, and you know that, but she is still far away in the Cining Palace, so I'm afraid she can't intervene in today's incident."

In the first half, Aman was explaining to Ai Ziyi, and in the second half, he was telling the Queen and Concubine De not to count on possible external aid anymore, and that we have to solve the next issues ourselves.

Defei opened her mouth but said nothing in the end. She didn't really believe that Ai Ziyi had the solution to the emperor's problem. She thought A'man brought them here just to find an excuse to take away Cuizhi, who was being raised by Ai Ziyi.

After all, the baby in Cuizhi's belly is a hidden danger, so it is better to eliminate the problem completely if possible.

Although Defei felt that the emperor's soul had lost its original body and was harmed by that evil son, his current condition must be very bad and he probably wouldn't be able to live to see the baby in Cuizhi's belly being born.

But we have to guard against this problem. What if, what if the emperor really finds a way to survive until that time and takes away the child's body, everything may happen again.

At that time, all their efforts would be wasted, but Defei did not expect that according to A'man's meaning, it seemed that Ai Ziyi's cooperation was still needed.

To be honest, Defei didn't think much of Ai Ziyi. Ai Ziyi's performance was not even as good as Liu Zhirou. If fate had not favored her and the emperor just needed to launch a target, Defei dared to guarantee that Ai Ziyi would probably lose her life within a few months, not to mention whether she was favored or not.

As for the magic weapons prepared by Ai Ziyi, Defei didn't think much of them. After all, she had witnessed what happened to the late queen, and afterwards she had sought out immortals and some legendary virtuous monks to obtain various magic weapons.

But the facts have proved that those so-called magical weapons are all just tricks to fool people and have no effect at all.

In terms of identity and status, Defei's family was of higher status and had a longer history, while Ai Ziyi's father was just a young military general who had just come to prominence.

In terms of seniority in the palace, Concubine De comes first. After all, Concubine De is more than ten years older than her and has been in the palace for more than ten years longer. Under such circumstances, Concubine De does not think that Ai Ziyi can do what she cannot do.

What's more, although Ai Ziyi was indeed hurt by the emperor, she did not have any deep hatred with the emperor after all, and she came from a family that was loyal to the emperor and patriotic. Could she really have the heart to participate in this matter like them?

Don't wait until the last minute to back out, which will only cause more trouble.
