Ah, you traveled through time too?

After Ye Gucheng was arrested, the palace was filled with joy, but this was only the brief calm before the storm. New conspiracies and more complicated forces were about to surface.

A few days later, a new concubine, Ning Yuxuan, arrived in the palace. She was the daughter of a wealthy businessman from Jiangnan, and was chosen to enter the palace because of her beauty and talent. Ning Yuxuan was gentle and charming, smart and witty, and soon won the favor of many concubines in the palace.

One day, Su Mei ran into Ning Yuxuan in the imperial garden, and took the initiative to greet her: "Hello, Concubine Ning, I am Mei Liangyuan."

Ning Yuxuan smiled back and bowed, "Sister Mei Liangyuan, I have long heard of your great name. It is an honor to meet you today."

Su Mei smiled and said, "You don't have to be polite, Concubine Ning. Are you used to the life in the palace?"

Ning Yuxuan nodded: "Thank you for your concern, sister. Yuxuan feels that life in the palace is not bad, but there are some places that I am not familiar with. I hope to ask you for more advice."

Su Mei nodded: "Then let's find some time to have a good chat. I will do my best to help you adapt to life in the palace."

A few days later, Su Mei invited Ning Yuxuan to the small kitchen and personally prepared some delicious food for her. After tasting it, Ning Yuxuan praised it highly: "Sister Mei Liangyuan's cooking skills are really amazing. These dishes are delicious and really make people linger."

Su Mei smiled and said, "As long as Concubine Ning likes it. Actually, I have something else I want to talk to you about. I wonder if my sister is willing to listen?"

Ning Yuxuan nodded: "Of course I am willing, please go ahead, sister."

Su Mei told Ning Yuxuan about Ye Gucheng, hoping that she could join their camp and fight against the conspiracy in the palace together.

After hearing this, Ning Yuxuan pondered for a moment and finally said, "Sister Mei Liangyuan, Yuxuan is willing to join you to investigate the truth in the palace. Although I have just entered the palace, I am willing to do my part for the peace of the harem."

Su Mei showed a relieved smile: "Thank you, Concubine Ning. With your help, we will definitely be able to better protect the peace of the harem."

From that day on, Ning Yuxuan joined the camp of Su Mei, Lian Di, Li Lanxin, Zhao Yating and Liu Xuer, and they began to conduct a more in-depth investigation into the conspiracy in the palace. Ning Yuxuan's intelligence and wit provided them with many valuable clues, making their investigation much smoother.

However, things are not that simple. As the investigation deepens, they find that the power struggle in the palace is far more complicated than they imagined. Ning Yuxuan gradually shows her extraordinary talents, but also makes Su Mei feel a little uneasy.

One day, Liu Xuer brought a shocking news: "Sisters, I found that Ning Yuxuan has a very close connection with Nanjiang, and she seems to be secretly planning some kind of conspiracy."

After Su Mei heard this, she was startled: "It seems that Ning Yuxuan is not as simple as we thought. We must further investigate her true intentions."

Zhao Yating nodded: "Yes, we must pay close attention to ensure that no conspiracy will succeed."

Li Lanxin also expressed her support: "We must speed up the investigation to ensure that the truth can be revealed in a timely manner."

Su Mei decided to test Ning Yuxuan in person to see her true intentions. One day, she met Ning Yuxuan again in the imperial garden and took the initiative to invite her to sit in the pavilion for a chat.

"Concubine Ning, things in the palace have become more and more complicated recently. What do you think?" Su Mei asked tentatively.

Ning Yuxuan smiled slightly and replied, "Sister, the power struggle in the palace is indeed complicated, but I believe that as long as we work together, we will be able to maintain peace in the harem."

Su Mei nodded: "You are right. However, I always feel that there are some things hidden in places we can't see, and we need to be more vigilant."

Ning Yuxuan smiled and said, "Sister, you are worrying too much. The affairs of the palace will be handled by the emperor and the ministers. We just need to do our own duties."

Su Mei thought secretly and decided to continue observing Ning Yuxuan's every move.

A few days later, Zhao Yating further investigated Ning Yuxuan and found that she was indeed connected with the spies in southern Xinjiang, and she seemed to have arranged many internal responses in the palace. This discovery shocked and disturbed Su Mei and her sisters.

Su Mei called everyone together to discuss countermeasures: "Ning Yuxuan's conspiracy has gradually surfaced, we must take action to expose her true face."

Zhao Yating nodded: "Yes, we can't delay any longer."

Li Lanxin also agreed: "We must take action and not let her plot succeed."

Liu Xuer suggested: "We can use Ning Yuxuan's insider to expose her conspiracy."

Su Mei nodded: "Okay, Sister Xuer, you continue to investigate Ning Yuxuan's accomplice. Sister Liandi and Sister Li Lanxin, we must strengthen our surveillance of Ning Yuxuan to ensure that she is not discovered."

A few days later, Liu Xuer got more information through the investigation of Ning Yuxuan's accomplice. She found that Ning Yuxuan's plan was to control the government by poisoning the emperor and several important ministers.

After Su Mei heard this, she was startled: "It seems that Ning Yuxuan's conspiracy has reached the final stage. We must take action immediately."

That night, Su Mei went to the imperial study to see Li Yong in person. She told him the whole story in detail. After listening to it, Li Yong's face darkened and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.

"These daring and presumptuous people dared to carry out such a vicious plan in my palace. I will never let them off easily!" Li Yong said coldly.

Su Mei held Li Yong's hand and said gently, "Your Majesty, I believe we can find out the truth and protect the peace of the harem."

Li Yong nodded, his eyes gleaming with determination: "I will, Mei'er. Don't worry, I will definitely clear your name."

A few days later, Li Yong began to secretly investigate Ning Yuxuan and her inner supporters, and strengthened the protection of the emperor and ministers. He arranged for more guards to accompany them to ensure that nothing unexpected would happen.

Just when Ning Yuxuan thought her plan was about to succeed, Li Yong suddenly appeared in front of her and exposed her conspiracy one by one. Ning Yuxuan was arrested and the culprits were also arrested one by one.

However, just when everyone thought everything was settled, a new twist occurred. It turned out that the real mastermind behind the scenes was Li Xiuyuan, who used Ning Yuxuan as a cover to try to cover up his true purpose.

Li Xiuyuan used the excuse of protecting the emperor to secretly command everything in an attempt to usurp the throne. When his plot was exposed, Li Yong was furious and immediately ordered the arrest of Li Xiuyuan and his followers.

In this power struggle, Su Mei, Lian Di, Li Lanxin, Zhao Yating and Liu Xuer worked together to successfully expose all conspiracies and protect the peace of the emperor and the court. Their wisdom and courage won Li Yong's high praise and the admiration of the concubines in the harem.

The new morning light sprinkled on the eaves of the palace, and the atmosphere in the harem finally returned to peace. Su Mei and her sisters stood in the imperial garden, looking at the sky in the distance, their hearts full of hope and determination. They knew that as long as they united and worked together, all future challenges would be solved.
