Crossing the Palace Fighting Fox Harem

"You only remember what happened after entering the palace, and have forgotten everything before entering the palace?" The emperor repeated Ji Anni's words again, with an expression of disbelief on his face, and speculated, "So, my beloved concubine, you have even forgotten our previous encounter in the Qi Palace? You have even forgotten Prince Ming?"

Ji Anni gave a helpless smile and replied, "Although I have not forgotten what happened to Prince Ming, I have forgotten how I met and got to know Your Majesty. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Hearing this, the Emperor sighed in disappointment, waved his hand and said, "My beloved concubine is innocent. The one who is guilty is the poisoned arrow. It was that poisoned arrow that caused my beloved concubine to lose her memory."

Hearing the emperor say such things, he must have believed her lies. Annie Ji had a barely perceptible smile on her face. This emperor was really naive, and it was so easy for her to get away with it. Compared to the shrewd Yan Niang, this emperor was much easier to deal with. While laughing secretly, Annie Ji secretly applauded herself for her quick thinking.

"By the way, Zhao Ji, did you see who was shooting the arrow?" asked the emperor.

"Brother." Tian Ning couldn't help but interrupt, "There were five families hunting the tiger together, and hundreds of arrows were fired at the same time. How could Concubine Zhao Cong see who shot the arrow? But speaking of it, Concubine Zhao Cong, you are really lucky." He glanced at Ji Anni and said, "Hundreds of arrows were shot at you, but you were only hit by one. It can be said that you survived a disaster, God bless you."

Ji Anni smiled apologetically, but she was thinking: It wasn't that a hundred arrows were shot at me, but that all a hundred arrows were shot at the tiger, and only one arrow was shot at me. Those who could participate in the royal hunting meeting and enter the woods to hunt tigers must be masters of archery. Since they are masters, they would definitely not miss the tiger if they aimed at it. But the strange thing is, why was I shot? Not only was I shot, but it was also poisoned. This was obviously a premeditated plot.

I didn't expect that after only a few days in the palace, someone had already started to plot murder.

Suddenly, Ji Anni thought of the monster lurking in the palace. Was the arrow this time related to the monster? But why did the monster go to such great lengths to shoot herself with a poisonous arrow when killing people, instead of just using spells?

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard the emperor ask, "Zhao Ji, I have ordered an investigation into the origin of the poisoned arrow. But the strange thing is that the arrow feathers were broken by someone, and the family seal on the arrow feathers was gone, so there is no way to investigate. Zhao Ji, do you have any clues?"

After the emperor's reminder, Ji Anni remembered that she had broken the arrow feathers and held the clan seal tightly in her palm before she fell unconscious.

Thinking of this, she subconsciously clenched her fist again, and then she realized that the broken arrow feather was still in her hand.

Ji Anni remained calm and did not say that she had broken the arrow feathers. She only asked with ulterior motives: "Your Majesty, what clan seals did the seven teams use on their arrow feathers in this hunting competition?"

The emperor thought that Ji Anni was just curious, so he answered truthfully, "Each family in this hunting competition uses dots as a mark, but the colors are different. The An family is yellow, the Bao family is red, the Kang family is green, the Changsun family is blue, the Liu family is purple, the Yang family is black, the Zhuang family is orange, and the Tang family is white. Why do you ask this, my beloved concubine?"

Ji Anni smiled and said, "Just asking casually."

Although her expression looked relaxed, after listening to the emperor's explanation of the clan seal, Ji Annie's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

She was the one who broke the arrow feather, so of course she knew the color of the dot on the clan seal.

Subconsciously clenching the arrow feather with dots on it in her hand, Ji Anni decided not to let anyone know the color of the dots.

Things turned out just as she expected. Fortunately, she broke the arrow feathers in time, otherwise innocent people would be implicated and the real mastermind behind the scenes would be laughing.

"Zhao Ji? Zhao Ji?" Seeing Ji Anni in a daze, the emperor waved his hand in front of Ji Anni's eyes.

Ji Anni came back to her senses and said, "Your Majesty, since I am awake, I will go back to the Concubine's Palace first."

If she stayed here for one more second, the possibility of her true identity being exposed would increase. Although the emperor seemed to be easy to deceive, Ji Anni still did not dare to take it lightly for the sake of safety. For the sake of her life, it was better to leave early.

After saying so much, Ji Anni was completely sober.

Looking around the room again, I realized that it was very different from the concubines' room.

The furnishings and decorations are all dragon-themed. This must be the emperor's bedroom, right? I never thought that I would be able to enjoy the treatment of sleeping on a dragon bed in my lifetime. It is worth my life. From another perspective, it also proves that the emperor was very fond of Zhao Ji and had a deep love for her. But unfortunately, the original Zhao Ji is dead...

Thinking of this, Ji Anni suddenly felt some sympathy for the emperor.

"Zhao Ji, you just woke up, why don't you rest for a while?" The emperor had no intention of letting Ji Anni leave.

Ji Anni looked out the window. It was already late, probably in the afternoon or late evening. Ji Anni thought, it's already this time, and the emperor still won't let me leave. Could he have some intention towards me?

Could it be that... you're planning on letting me stay here and sleep with you tonight?

That day, Ji Anni quickly became alert and subconsciously shrank back to keep a safe distance from the emperor.

Although the other party was Soji's husband and I entered Soji's body, it didn't mean that I had to have sex with him as Soji, right? My mission in entering the palace was to find the monster and return to my original world, not to mess around with Soji's former man.

"Zhao Ji, are you okay? You look so bad." Seeing Ji Anni's face was pale, the emperor couldn't help but worry, thinking that Ji Anni was unwell again, and hurriedly said: "Let's call the imperial physician, otherwise I really don't feel at ease."

Ji Anni said, "Your Majesty, I am not ill at all, I just can't get used to sleeping on this bed. As long as you let me go back to Concubine's Palace, I promise that I will be cured of any illness."

"Are you not used to sleeping on this bed?" The emperor looked at Ji Anni in confusion, obviously thinking that Ji Anni's excuse was too strange.

Seeing that the emperor didn't respond for a long time, Ji Anni also became a little nervous. She thought to herself that she had been able to get away with it so easily when she pretended to have lost her memory just now, so why couldn't she get away with it now?

Ji Anni was worried about being exposed, and she heard Princess Tianning speak for her: "Brother, since Concubine Zhao wants to go back, you can let her go. Anyway, she is strong and energetic. It won't matter if she is hit by a poison arrow. I guarantee that she will be alive and kicking tomorrow. There is nothing to worry about."

Although she was grateful to Tian Ning for speaking for her, Ji Anni just couldn't agree with the words like strong and energetic, which made her sound like an invincible cockroach.

The emperor thought about it for a while and finally agreed to let the eunuch send Ji Anni back to the Concubine Palace. Before leaving, he also solemnly instructed that if she felt any discomfort, she must immediately find an imperial physician.

Ji Anni was eager to go home and nodded in agreement.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally left the emperor's bedroom before the sun set.

Ji Anni stood outside the palace gate and took a deep breath, feeling that the air outside was still fresh. Recalling the scene when she met the emperor just now, she still felt a little scared, but fortunately she managed to get away with it successfully.
