I swept the harem by pretending to be weak

In fact, the queen knew very well that the eldest princess was only a 6-year-old child and had never received any training before, but she was able to rival several adult maids who were used to doing rough work. This in itself was a quite abnormal thing.

However, under the influence of the emperor, the queen always ignored this point and instead focused most of her attention on the eldest princess' madness.

Now that this influence has disappeared, the Queen naturally can't help but worry about the future life of her eldest princess.

As a mother, she is so contradictory. Not long ago, she was still thinking about taking the eldest princess to the underworld with her. Now, she has slowly regained a little hope and started to worry about the eldest princess's health. She hopes that the eldest princess can live a long life.

But without permission, she didn't dare to speak. Although according to secular terms, her status and position here are the highest, this is not a place where the right to speak is divided entirely according to secular status.

Ai Ziyi's anger was now beyond words. She had thought that her experience was bad enough. When she was clearly in love, she suddenly fell out of favor. She finally got her own child and had completely given up on the emperor. She only hoped to serve the emperor well and raise her child so that she would have someone to rely on when she was old. However, because of the damage of a damn wooden bridge, she was spurned and ignored by the emperor, and then the damn eunuch Wang Fuhai killed her baby.

Ai Ziyi had some resentment towards the emperor, but she didn't dare to show it. After all, she would still have to work under the emperor in the future. If she really took advantage of the grievances she had suffered to treat the emperor coldly, it was not impossible, but the end result would only harm herself.

When you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Ai Ziyi understood this principle, but she was not in such a good mood when facing Wang Fuhai. She poured all her resentment on the dead eunuch, hoping to grind him to ashes and make him die.

Liu Zhirou was also harassed by this damn eunuch when she was pregnant. Her sister had just entered the palace for a few days and had not even been favored by the emperor. She didn't know what damn thing influenced her, but she only knew how to chase after the emperor all day long, completely disregarding her own status and position, and her influence on the outside world.

Ai Ziyi's anger got out of control. She bit her lips tightly, trying to control her anger, but failed in the end. So she stood up, walked to Liu Zhirou and said to her sincerely: "Miss Liu, I want to help you. You know, your current situation is not normal. When the emperor doted on you, he treated you as a treasure. The emperor doesn't dote on you anymore. What you are doing now is likely to bring disaster upon yourself."

Ai Ziyi spoke quite sincerely, but Liu Zhilan felt very uncomfortable.

But after all, Liu Zhilan now is no longer the little girl who was dazzled by wealth and fame.

The suffering she had experienced in recent times has made her mature quickly. Perhaps even the emperor is not aware that Liu Zhilan has basically realized that she has fallen into a trap set by others this time, and there is most likely someone behind the scenes planning this.

So she quickly overcame the discomfort in her heart and began to think rationally about her future path.

She did not fall deeply in love with the emperor because of a heroic act to save a beauty as Ai Ziyi imagined. On the contrary, she had almost no feelings for the emperor, and even if she did, it was just suspicion.

There were so many doubts in that matter that Liu Zhilan couldn't even deceive herself. Why did the emperor choose to go on a secret visit to a slum with the worst conditions?

And how could the human trafficker be so bold as to attack the emperor who was dressed as a rich kid and wearing a lot of strong wrist guards?

Even if we take a step back and say that the emperor is a young man after all, neither a woman nor a child. So even if he was really abducted, what would be the use?

Do they sell it to coal mines to dig coal?

Even if he really dares to sell it, who would dare to buy it?

You know, this is not some other place, this is the capital city!

Anyone who can dress quite luxuriously in the capital and parade around with a group of guards must be either rich or noble. A small human trafficker like her cannot afford to offend such a person.

Liu Zhilan expressed deep doubts about this matter. Although the Liu family had already become wealthy when she was born, she was not the kind of noble lady who was completely ignorant of the sufferings of the world. In this case, she couldn't help but think more.

Once it was confirmed that the emperor had ulterior motives in saving her, Liu Zhilan had to connect it to her previous love at first sight. Today, she developed a huge fear of the emperor, but due to the huge difference in their identities and status, she did not dare to show it.

Now Ai Ziyi clearly stated that she wanted to lend her a helping hand. The Queen and Concubine De were sitting on the other side and didn't seem to have any objections. Liu Zhilan was of course grateful and told them all about the problems she had encountered.

Several people were also listening attentively. After listening to Liu Zhilan's description of her feelings, A'man breathed a sigh of relief.

"This is a sure thing. Just wait for it to end, everyone."

Aman said softly.

"That's great. I can't wait." A ferocious smile appeared on Defei's beautiful face.

Ai Ziyi looked at A'man and then at Defei in confusion. She was unable to connect their murderous intent with what she could think of.

A'man had no intention of explaining and just sat there quietly.

Not long after, the timid little palace maid ran in quickly and went straight to Ai Ziyi.

Seeing her useless appearance, Ai Ziyi couldn't help but frowned and angrily scolded: "Can't you see that the Queen and Consort De are also here? Who told you to be so ignorant of etiquette!"

Because A'man and Liu Zhilan's identities and status are relatively awkward, although they are both in the palace, they have no positions and cannot be directly referred to, so Ai Ziyi deliberately did not mention them both, and directly said the Queen and Defei.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Your Majesty, please forgive me." Frightened by Ai Ziyi's words, the little palace maid quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to beg for mercy.

"There's no need to embarrass her, Concubine Lan. Just let her talk if you have anything to say." The Queen quickly spoke out to help out. She felt that her only role here was to help out.
