Zhen Huan: "The system just told us to go back to the palace to get the props. Sisters, please go back to your own palace to get the props, and then go to the safe house, the Palace of Heavenly Purity, to discuss countermeasures. Doctor Wen should also go to the Imperial Hospital to get the props."

No one had any objection. Zhen Huan held Shen Meizhuang's hand and patted it gently in a soothing manner, showing an expression of "sister needs your help" as she did before. Shen Meizhuang softened her heart and agreed.

When Zhen Huan arrived at Yongshou Palace, she did not see any props. Instead, she saw her twins and Shen Meizhuang's daughter Jinghe. Zhen Huan could not help but hug Hongzhou in her arms and kissed Lingxi, her eyes filled with tears.

"My dear children, why are you here?"

"Ding--"

[Congratulations to the player for receiving the item, the Wild Seed Three-piece Set. Function: When your life is threatened, you can give the baby to the spider spirit in exchange for time to save your life.]

Zhen Huan's loving smile froze on her face. She could no longer cry. She was shocked and angry: "Master System, they are my children. How can they be props? How could I give them to the Spider Spirit!"

[The system detects excessive language from the player and gives a warning: You can give away other people's children, but you can't give away your own children? This is hypocritical and Concubine Xiang will be furious~]

Concubine Xiang, Cao Qinmo, and Princess Wen Yi. Past events flooded into Zhen Huan's mind. She felt guilty for a moment, but she still insisted, "I am doing this for Princess Wen Yi's own good."

"Princess Wen Yi will be harmed if she follows a scheming and vicious mother like Cao Qinmo. Concubine Duan hasn't had a child for many years and she likes Wen Yi. She treats her like her own daughter and does everything herself. This is good for both of them!"

As luck would have it, Cao Qinmo just happened to come to Yongshou Palace to question Zhen Huan about her deception into proposing the execution of Concubine Hua. She heard everything Zhen Huan said clearly and went berserk.

Cao Qinmo was wearing a Dunhuang-style belly-baring outfit, and eight huge black spider legs strangely grew out of her back, which attacked Zhen Huan's face and body left and right.

"what!!!"

In an instant, three bloody wounds appeared on Zhen Huan's face, and the gorgeous imperial concubine's dress on her body was also torn, revealing the fair skin underneath.

Whenever Cao Qinmo touched Zhen Huan's vital points, she would reduce her force and just stroke lightly, which would scare Zhen Huan so much that she would jump around like a frightened bird.

Cao Qinmo sneered coldly: "In terms of scheming and viciousness, who in the palace can compare to you, Zhen Huan!"

"In order to force me to help you move to Concubine Hua and Nian's house, they first scared Noble Lady Fucha crazy and killed a chicken to scare the monkeys, and then asked me, a noble lady, to hastily prepare Princess Chaogui's dowry, causing her to become the concubine of her stepson half a month after her marriage to Mongolia."

"You tricked me into cooperating with you and promised me a promotion. Bah! You, Zhen Huan, are selfish and vicious by nature. You will never let go of me who has given advice to Concubine Hua. You also want to use my Wen Yi to please Concubine Duan and expand your own power."

"You have planned to kill the mother and save the daughter from the beginning. Even if the emperor and the empress dowager did not take action, you would let Wen Shichu kill me. Am I right, Zhen Huan?"

After saying that, Cao Qinmo did not hold back any longer, and the sharp spider thorn fiercely stabbed towards Zhen Huan's heart. Zhen Huan could not dodge in time, and shouted in a hurry: "Wen Yi is now in Concubine Duan's Yanqing Palace!"

Cao Qinmo suddenly stopped.

Seeing that it worked, Zhen Huan continued, "It's true. My child is here, and Wen Yi must be here too. If you don't go, Concubine Duan will definitely take Wen Yi to the Qianqing Palace, and then you won't be able to see Wen Yi anymore."

The Qianqing Palace is a place that spider spirits cannot enter. Cao Qinmo loves her daughter dearly, so she doesn't bother with Zhen Huan. She puts her eight spider legs on the ground and flies towards the Yanqing Palace.

Zhen Huan collapsed to the ground, looking at the three children and started to cry. It was almost like that. If Cao Qinmo had not been persuaded by her, she would have sent the children away to save their lives.

Of course she was reluctant to do so. The twins were her and Yunli's own flesh and blood, the fruit of their love. Although Jinghe was not her biological child, she was entrusted to her by sister Mei before her death. How could she have such an idea?

……

When Zhen Huan arrived at the Qianqing Palace, the other five people had already arrived. The scar on her face could not be hidden no matter what, and the three children who followed her obediently also appeared in front of everyone.

At the same time, she also saw Wen Yi behind Concubine Duan and Long Yue behind Concubine Jing. It seemed that Cao Qinmo did not succeed in stopping Concubine Duan.

It was just that the calf part of Concubine Duan's palace uniform was scratched. It seemed that Concubine Duan arrived at the Qianqing Palace in time when Cao Qinmo attacked, forcing Cao Qinmo to retreat.

She was observing Concubine Duan, and Concubine Duan was naturally observing her as well. When Concubine Duan saw the wound on Zhen Huan's face, her eyes changed, and the look she gave her was icy cold and defensive, with deep hidden hatred.

Zhen Huan understood. Concubine Duan must have guessed it, but she didn't know whether Wen Yi's role was the same as Hong Zhou's Lingxi, and Concubine Jing's Longyue...

"Huan'er, were you also attacked by the spider spirit? Why are you so badly injured?" Shen Meizhuang looked at Zhen Huan worriedly, not even caring about her own daughter for a moment.

Zhen Huan showed a strong and aggrieved look at the right time, and her voice trembled, "Sister Mei, I'm fine. I met a spider spirit on the way here, and I was lucky to escape."

Shen Meizhuang was indeed distressed, and her tone was very anxious and worried: "Who did you meet? Was it An Lingrong?"

Zhen Huan didn't know why Shen Meizhuang mentioned An Lingrong alone, but she chose to ignore the first question and said, "If it wasn't An Lingrong, why would Sister Mei mention her?"

"I'm glad it's not An Lingrong." Shen Meizhuang first breathed a sigh of relief, and then explained to Zhen Huan.

"You don't know yet, this is the information attached to Doctor Wen's prop. Although An Lingrong is not as powerful as the Queen and Concubine Hua, she is poisonous all over her body. If you are injured by her, it will be terrible. Only Doctor Wen's silver needle can detoxify, but it can only be used once a day."

Being poisonous all over her body was consistent with An Lingrong's habits. Zhen Huan felt ashamed and showed her disgust at an angle that only Shen Meiyu could see, which won Shen Meiyu's approval.

Shen Meizhuang: "The current situation is extremely unfavorable to us. My weapon is the Nine-toothed Rake, which can resist the attacks of An Lingrong and the spider spirits below her, but it can only be used once a day. If we encounter Concubine Hua and the Queen, I'm afraid..."

Ye Lanyi had a cold face and took out the golden hoop stick. "This is my prop, the Dinghai Shenzhen. It can only be used once, but it can kill any spider spirit except the queen."

"Besides the Queen?"

Zhen Huan frowned, how could there be such a rule? It was already strange that the Nine-toothed Rake was ineffective against the Queen and Concubine Hua, and now even the Monkey King's golden cudgel could not cause any harm to the Queen.

Then the Queen would be sitting on the Diaoyutai, is there any need to continue this game? Zhen Huan was unwilling to accept this and looked at Ye Lanyi, "How come the Dinghai Shenzhen is ineffective against the Queen?"
