Time Travel: The actress's acting skills exploded, and she was favored by the harem

In the blink of an eye, more than a month had passed. Apart from some rumors that Concubine Zhao was plotting to murder her own sisters, nothing major had happened in the harem.

However, there was something that gave Bo Muxi a headache. It was almost the end of the year, but for the first time in history, there was not even a snowfall in Zhao State.

In previous years, Zhaodu was a country with abundant snow. With this strange phenomenon happening today, the people are naturally in panic.

But even though Bo Muxi was the emperor, he could not control God. He and the queen had prayed for blessings together since the beginning of winter, but to no avail.

While the emperor was losing his appetite due to this matter, the palace of Prince Rui was also shrouded in gloom, but the people inside were worried about different things than the emperor.

"I don't know what has possessed the emperor to forcefully implement the 'Enfeoffment Order'. Isn't this obviously treating us princes and lords as fools? If the Enfeoffment Order is really as good as the emperor says, why doesn't the royal family implement it themselves?" The Prince of Xiang slammed the teacup heavily on the tea table, his tone resentful.

At the last royal banquet, the Emperor and the Empress did not give face to the old Concubine Dowager Zhang Wang. After returning home, the old Concubine Dowager was so angry that she fell ill in bed. Now her health is not as good as before.

The Prince of Xiang submitted several letters of loyalty to the Empress, but the Emperor's responses were always lukewarm, and he even reduced a lot of his family's supplies. The Prince of Xiang was very angry, and he put the blame entirely on the Emperor, the Empress, and Shen Zhiyao.

"You better keep calm. How can the emperor be simple? The righteous will have many supporters. The most cruel thing about this enfeoffment order is that it makes us, the legitimate sons, become the unrighteous ones. There are many illegitimate sons in the princes and marquises' mansions, and they all want to have a piece of the pie. Naturally, we, Bian Yao, are at a disadvantage!" Prince Rui took the tea bowl and tasted it carefully, then analyzed it slowly, as if he was not a victim.

"So can we just sit and wait for death?" Prince Xiang asked bitterly.

Prince Rui skimmed the tea foam, raised his eyebrows and glanced at the Prime Minister Hu Hongfei who was sitting on the side: "What do you think, Prime Minister?"

In fact, Hu Hongfei has always been a backbone of the royalist forces. However, two years ago, he was set up by Prince Rui and caught with corruption. In order to protect his wife, children, and hundreds of people in the Hu family, Hu Hongfei had to secretly surrender to Prince Rui.

Now, Hu Hongfei is still loyal to Bo Muxi on the surface, but secretly, he has become one of Prince Rui's trump cards, a sharp knife against the emperor's waist.

"I don't have any good suggestions. However, since the founding of our Dazhao Kingdom, there has never been a winter without snow! Why is it so? We can study it in detail." Hu Hongfei said slowly.

"Hahaha, brilliant! You are worthy of being Prime Minister Hu. I will order some people to infiltrate the wells in the big city and create an atmosphere that will irritate God and people!" The Prince of Xiang applauded.

Prince Rui glanced at Prince Xiang and said, "Well, it is indeed enough to make the emperor drink a pot, but this move is not far-sighted enough..."

"Ah! Don't keep us in suspense. What are your plans? Please tell me clearly, my brother!" Prince Xiang said with a smile.

"It's not a clear statement, Prime Minister Hu... I heard that there is a young lady in your house who is waiting to be married and has profound attainments in music..." Prince Rui put down his teacup and stared at Hu Hongfei with burning eyes...

Hu Hongfei's heart trembled. He was courting death by taking such a risky move and secretly colluding with Rui Junwang's followers. Now, they were finally plotting against him.

Even though he was extremely reluctant, he had no choice but to stand up and kowtow: "I know what your Majesty is thinking. I will go and prepare now and will definitely fulfill my mission..."

"Good! Hahahaha... The harem's 'Collection Pavilion' was damaged before, but it didn't achieve the desired effect. Now with the help of Prime Minister Hu's beloved daughter, our grand plan will be more promising!" Prince Rui laughed heartily, as if he had really succeeded...

Prince Xiang and Hu Hongfei looked at each other in bewilderment. The things the three of them had conspired to do were really enough to make them die eight hundred times. Now they were stuck in the mud and were firmly tied to Prince Rui. There was no hope of extricating themselves from it in this lifetime. They could only hope that Prince Rui would achieve a positive result...

The palace has been very lively since early this morning. It was Queen Mother Zhao who suggested that before the New Year, a play should be put on in the palace, and the royal family and wise ministers should be invited to bring their families to liven up the atmosphere and pray for a good omen for the next year.

In fact, everyone knew that it was probably because of the matter between Zhao Cairen and Qi Baolin that everyone was deliberately avoiding Shu Ningxuan. It was a good thing to celebrate.

Concubine Zhao barely managed to save her life, but her body was completely ruined and she is now very afraid of the cold. The emperor, out of respect for her mother's family, takes good care of her. She just no longer has the chance to sleep with the emperor, but her treatment is still the same.

Naturally, it was inconvenient for Concubine Zhao to attend today's event, so she could only stay alone in Ningshuangxuan.

After Shen Zhiyao came back from paying her respects at Fengyi Palace, she began to dress up again as she was going to go to the opera.

She chose a royal blue silk palace dress with plum blossom patterns embroidered on the hem, and a jade white lining inside, which added a sense of layering to the palace dress. The overall look made her appear playful yet gentle and dignified.

She also carefully created a set of makeup. Her skin was already fair and tender, so she only applied some light foundation, specially drew a light eye makeup, and simply drew an eyeliner to make her peach blossom eyes look deeper and brighter.

Shen Zhiyao looked at herself in the mirror with great satisfaction, marveling at the magic of youth. When she won the Grand Slam Best Actress title in modern times, she was already 36 years old. Although she had maintained herself very well, she still could not hide the traces of time.

She thought about it, then put some flower ornaments on her forehead to add a bit of charm.

After ordering Qiuyue to put on a cloak of the same color as him, he took Qiuyue's hand, got on the sedan chair that had been waiting in the courtyard for a long time, and headed towards the theater in the palace.

Shen Zhiyao arrived neither too early nor too late. Most people had already arrived, so she sat down next to Lu Wanyi.

"Isn't Concubine Zhuang coming?" Lu Wanyi asked with a smile.

"She is nearly eight months pregnant, and her body is in a heavy state. The Empress has not allowed her to run around, and only allows her to walk around in the garden of Yongfu Palace every day. She will definitely not come. If anything goes wrong, no one can afford it." Shen Zhiyao said as she looked around.

"I heard that Prime Minister Hu specially brought the youngest daughter of the family here today, saying that he wanted to take this opportunity to play the piano to entertain everyone." Lu Wanyi pulled Shen Zhiyao's clothes, asking her to concentrate on her speech.

"Haha, to help with the fun?" Shen Zhiyao sneered, and couldn't help but think of the scene when Zhao Qing sent Zhao Jingzi to the palace. She leaned close to Lu Wanyi's small ear and whispered, "Then let's just watch the show. I'm afraid it's another one of them selling his daughter!"

Lu Wanyi felt very itchy from her breath. After dodging it with a smile, she couldn't help but hit her arm and said angrily, "You are the one with the bad heart. Look at what you said."

Shen Zhiyao blinked her peach blossom eyes, looking very innocent: "Am I wrong?"
