I swept the harem by pretending to be weak

Liu Zhirou was not aware of this, but she understood that now was no longer the time to proceed steadily, carefully inquire about the situation, and make plans.

The speed at which things are developing is as if the fast-forward button has been suddenly pressed, spreading madly at 1.5 times the speed, and now the time has come when the arrow is on the string and has to be shot.

The army led by Guo Jieshu was entrenched outside the palace with a covetous eye. If they were not afraid of the mysterious power that might exist in the palace, they would have rushed in long ago to purge the emperor's side and eliminate the corrupt officials.

But even so, the time that can be delayed is not too long. At least Liu Zhirou is very clear that the person behind her sister Liu Zhijin should be able to quell the smoke of war very quickly. Either the emperor will suppress it and put an end to the mutiny, or he will fight back in anger and squeeze the emperor out. Both are possible.

After all, if there is no plot, then the so-called advantage of foresight will naturally not exist. Liu Zhijin, the book traveler, is too weak compared to these other travelers who have their own plug-ins, so the other party will definitely try their best to bring things back to the original plot.

Liu Zhirou sometimes thought that if there were no strange things like the evil Buddha and the white fox, perhaps this would just be an ordinary time-travel novel. However, after being mixed with many factors, this world seemed messy, like a big pot of hodgepodge.

But it is precisely because of the clutter that Liu Zhirou can calmly pick out what she wants from it and try her best to fight against the possible mastermind behind the scenes.

Liu Zhirou understood a truth: the more supernatural factors there were in a world, the easier it was for someone to fish in troubled waters. Of course, it was also easier for someone to be defeated by someone in a way that she did not understand. It could only be said that fortune and misfortune go hand in hand.

Because this small palace was mixed with the power of several other people, the situation got further out of control. Now things were stuck at this point. Liu Zhirou didn't know the specific situation of the emperor, but according to the results of Concubine De and the other ghosts in the palace who had planned for so many years, it was estimated that they would not be too bad.

Even if the emperor has not completely lost control of the palace, he is not far from it. In this case, the emperor is unlikely to turn the tide, unless...

Liu Zhirou thought of her younger sister Liu Zhilan, who was missing from home, as her father Liu Ming had told her before, and a shadow of sadness passed through her heart.

Did Liu Zhilan’s disappearance really happen because, as her father said, she fell in love at first sight with a handsome and wealthy man and eloped with him?

Although she knew that Liu Zhilan was a naive girl, she didn't think that she would do something so insane.

What's more, this timing is too sensitive, but if there is a big plan behind this matter, it would be too scary.

Liu Zhirou forced herself to turn her thoughts to this side and stop thinking about those messy things. No matter who wins between the emperor and Guo Jieshu, they, the concubines, will not have a good ending.

But seeing that the matter was about to end, Liu Zhirou did not intend to continue to give in and pretend to be dead. She also wanted to take this opportunity to reach a condition that she had never thought of before.
