After Wei Yanwan gave birth, she was sent directly to the cold palace. Due to Hongli's illness, the little prince was also neglected and temporarily raised in Xiefang Palace. Yixiu naturally didn't want Wei Yanwan to survive. In this kind of thing, one should be prepared for the worst.

Su Ran: "Don't worry, Madam. The medicine prescribed by Imperial Doctor Jiang is very effective. Commoner Wei is already on his deathbed. He can't even speak complete sentences. He will go to see the King of Hell soon."

"That's good." Yixiu casually pulled out a golden hairpin and gave it to Su Ran. "The dead have the strictest mouths. Give it to Suo Xin as a reward. She did a good job."

Su Ran's eyes rolled, "惢心 has other discoveries in the cold palace."

Yixiu signaled with her eyes that Su Ran should continue.

Su Ran pretended to be mysterious: "There is a concubine named Ji in the cold palace. She claims to be the daughter of a branch of our Fucha family. She often curses the one in the Cining Palace. It is said that this concubine Ji was scared crazy by the one in the Cining Palace and was sent to the cold palace."

Fucha family, crazy, cold palace, Yixiu just puts a few key words together and you will know who this Concubine Ji is, Fucha noble lady, Fucha Yixin, who entered the palace at the same time as Zhen Huan.

Yixiu became interested. "She is still alive. Let's have our people secretly recruit her. Maybe she will come in handy in the future."

Wei Yanwan died in the cold palace, and no one cared about her except Yixiu. At the same time, the Fourth Prince was given the name Yongyan and was raised by Imperial Noble Consort Ruyi, and the imperial edict was also changed.

As usual, Gao Xiyue cursed Ruyi in Yonghe Palace, and then, regardless of Ruyi's ugly expression, she took Hailan back to Chengqian Palace to amuse the little princess. Since having Jingqin, Gao Xiyue's focus has been entirely on Jingqin.

Without A Ruo, a troublemaker, by her side, Ruyi did not confront Gao Xiyue. Her heart was now entirely on Hongli, and even Yongyan was mostly left to the care of the wet nurse and palace maids.

In Ruyi's heart, Yongyan is just Hongli's affection for her and evidence of Hongli's worry that she will be left alone in her old age.

Yixiu, who watched Ruyi's every move, just wanted to say: You are the retribution of the Ulanara family! You are as stupid as a pig!

Yixiu felt that she was absolutely right to kill off Ruyi's offspring. Although Yongyan was not her biological son, she had given him to raise since he was born. Not only did Yongyan's biological mother die, but she also became a taboo in the palace and no one would ever mention him.

Despite such good conditions, Ruyi didn't care about Yongyan at all. Instead, she was very concerned about the dog emperor who obviously didn't live long but didn't forget the three palaces and six courtyards.

That’s right, on the fifteenth day before yesterday, Hongli came to Yonghe Palace and asked for water. Yixiu almost vomited the food she had eaten the previous night. Because Yixiu saw compensation in Hongli’s eyes, Hongli actually thought that he was compensating her by favoring her? !

This action reminded Yixiu of Yinzhen's treatment of Nian Shilan. She remembered that every time Nian Gengyao went to a battle, Yinzhen would use himself as a reward to make Nian Shilan happy. She also remembered the bowl of abortion pills and Huanyixiang, and she felt unwell immediately.

This approach worked for Nian Shilan, because at that time, Nian Shilan was deeply in love with Yinzhen, while Yixiu had no feelings for Hongli at all. Even if she did, it was just the pity of a legitimate mother for her illegitimate son.

Because of this, Yixiu felt sick for a month. When Jiang Yubin came to check her pulse, Jiang Yubin said, "Congratulations, Queen, it's a slippery pulse. You are one month pregnant!"

Yixiu: “…” Don’t talk nonsense.

As soon as the news of the Empress' pregnancy spread, congratulations were heard from the whole palace, especially from Hongli, who thought that the Empress's success in getting pregnant meant that he was in good health and could live for several more years. Therefore, Hongli attached great importance to the unborn child and rewarded him with gifts in Yonghe Palace every now and then.

Except for Hai Lan, all the concubines in the harem were full of old jealousy. Even Gao Xiyue couldn't help but say a few words in Chengqian Palace that the queen was indeed blessed. Gao Xiyue was determined to marry the infant Jingqin to the Fucha family, as she believed that the Fucha family must be easy to give birth to.

The one who reacted the most was Concubine Jia. She was already a little disheartened when Hongli suddenly became seriously ill and had not come to the harem for a long time. Now that the queen was pregnant, it was like a blow to her head. She had to continue to compete for favor. More princes meant more options.

Jiapin enthusiastically joined the competition for favor, and Hongli also wanted to have more princes. With one willing to fight and the other willing to be beaten, Jiapin became the favorite concubine again. As for recuperation and childhood sweethearts, they were long forgotten by Hongli. Ten cows could not stop his desire to be a father.

Yixiu quietly watched Hongli commit suicide, and secretly helped Jiapin and other concubines who wanted to compete for his favor. Seeing this, Ruyi was sad and depressed for a while, but in the end, her concern for Hongli's health prevailed, and she began to go in and out of the Qianqing Palace again.

As soon as Ruyi made a move, it was clear whether the result would be successful or not. Based on the childhood sweethearts and the love between them that they never got tired of talking about, and the fact that they spent every day together during Hongli's serious illness, it was clear that Hongli finally listened to Ruyi's advice.

Yixiu secretly thought that she was meddling in other people's business, but the most important thing to her right now was the baby in her belly. If there was any mistake during childbirth, it would result in two deaths, so Yixiu was very cautious.

Hongli's health was not good, and Yixiu's fetus was a little weak, and she had a strong reaction during pregnancy. She couldn't eat and vomited constantly. Yixiu was suffering visibly. For the safety of her and the fetus, Yixiu decided to share the power of the palace so that she could take care of the fetus with peace of mind.

But Hongli had a very bad eye for selecting concubines. He couldn't find a suitable person to help manage the six palaces among so many people. Originally, Yihuan was suitable, but Yihuan was Zhen Huan's person. Her control of the palace was equivalent to Zhen Huan's control of the palace. Yixiu and Hongli were worried.

As for Ruyi, humph, how could the power of the palace be more important than the young man she loved so much? Yixiu persuaded her again and again, but Ruyi refused and directly declined with the excuse of taking care of Yongyan. As a result, she ran to the Qianqing Palace as soon as she left Yonghe Palace, not for Yongyan at all.

The palace power was eventually divided into three parts, with Gao Xiyue, Concubine Chun, and Yihuan each managing a part.

Gao Xiyue didn't want to get involved in all this, but Yixiu persuaded her that the princess was still young and having some palace power in her hands would be helpful to her in the future. Only then did she accept it. However, when she returned to her own palace, she handed it over to Nanny Tao and Moxin.

Gao Xiyue said confidently: "The Imperial Concubine doesn't care, so why should I, a concubine, work so hard for his harem?"

Zhen Huan wanted to kill Yi Xiu because Yi Huan had some power in the palace, but Yi Xiu managed Yonghe Palace like an iron barrel and did not give her any chance to kill. Yi Huan was also unwilling to kill the heir to the throne and make Hong Li sad.

Yihuan and Ruyi both knew that Hongli's body was already at the end of its strength. If something happened to the Empress at this time, Hongli would probably die directly from the great shock...
