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

When Chu An brought the news back to Cuiweixuan, Shen Zhiyao was reading with great interest the "War Chronicles of Zhao State" which she had just borrowed from Lu Guiren a few days ago.

Shen Zhiyao was very surprised after listening to Chu An's story. She had imagined many possible endings, but she didn't expect it would be Zhao Wanyi.

The handkerchiefs used by the concubines in the harem of Zhao State were all made by the Shangyi Bureau. Each concubine had a different handkerchief, so the owner could be easily identified just by looking at the handkerchief.

It seems that all the evidence currently points to Zhao Wanyi, the daughter of Grand Secretary Zhao Qing, who belongs to the same Zhao family as Concubine Zhao.

Then a few days ago, in Yongfu Palace, she had denounced Zhao Wanyi for poisoning her in revenge for a slap in the face. Wasn't this another case of her hitting the mark unexpectedly?

However, Shen Zhiyao really didn’t think that Zhao Wanyi had such courage or ability to accomplish this.

There must be someone else behind this.

But now that things have come to this, it seems that only this unfortunate Zhao Wanyi can take the blame, so that everyone can be happy.

Shen Zhiyao had no obsession, but she couldn't help but wonder in her heart who was the real mastermind behind the scenes.

Obviously it wouldn’t be Queen Dowager Zhao.

Even if Queen Dowager Zhao disliked herself and Concubine Zhuang, there was no need for her to deliberately use contraception or murder her own grandson.

Queen Mother Zhao only wanted to expand the power of the Zhao family. She didn't really want the imperial power to fall into the hands of other relatives. There was no point in using such inferior means.

Then, the most likely person is Concubine Zhao.

Shen Zhiyao believed that the emperor and empress could naturally analyze the problems that she could analyze better. Next, it would depend on how they would weigh and deal with them...

That afternoon, the emperor brought the queen to Ningshuangxuan.

Zhao Wanyi was kneeling on the ground at this time, crying bitterly, and kept complaining about how wronged she was and how she was framed.

The queen didn't even bother to look at her. There were so many ladies in the harem with family backgrounds that none of them could be worry-free. She had seen so many absurd things that her heart had become hardened a long time ago.

Although the queen knew that she was wronged, she did not feel sorry for her.

From the palace to the harem today, the queen has experienced ups and downs. How many "poor people" has she seen?

At the beginning, it was Zhao Qing and Zhao Wanyi who were trying their best to get in.

The fighting in the harem has always been fierce. Isn't it all my own fault that I have ended up in this state?

As she thought about it, the Queen actually laughed in her heart. They both came from prominent family backgrounds, so how could Zhao Wanyi be so much worse than Jin Wanyi?

Bo Muxi put his hands behind his back, pretending to be extremely distressed, and sighed, "How can you be so rude as a Wanyi? Why do you have to pick on Jin Wanyi? Am I not attentive enough to you? I am so disappointed!"

Bo Muxi's words were full of regret, as if he had a deep affection for Zhao Wanyi.

But the empress standing by saw it very clearly. The emperor began to play the role of infatuated again, and his purpose was just to give an explanation to the Zhao family.

Isn’t it the emperor who “praised” Zhao Wanyi to be what she is today?

Zhao Wanyi, who was kneeling on the ground, cried more and more sadly and felt more aggrieved after hearing the emperor's words.

What really made her sad was not the possibility of being convicted, but the fact that she truly understood that the emperor would never favor her.

How could she, who could only gain a foothold in the palace by groveling and fawning on Concubine Zhao, be capable of poisoning Jin Wanyi? How could she be capable of murdering the heir to the throne?

Everyone actually knew the answer, but they just assumed it was her.

"Your Majesty, now that things have come to this, I don't want to make any more explanations. I just want to ask you a sincere question." Zhao Wanyi stretched out her trembling hands and gently grasped the hem of Xilong's thin robe, as if she was grabbing the last straw.

Bo Muxi looked at the wrinkled part of the hem, frowned, and asked coldly, "What's the matter?"

"Your Majesty...the favor you showed me before, the words you said to me, the nights we spent together...was there ever any sincerity in your heart?" Zhao Wanyi asked while choking with sobs.

The Queen was moved upon hearing this. This Zhao Wanyi must have some real feelings for the Emperor. What a pity...

"Zhao Wanyi, think about it carefully. What a stupid question you asked! Are you doubting me?" Bo Muxi's voice was as cold as ice in the winter. It was without any warmth and full of oppression.

At this moment, he was just the emperor, and there was only a subordinate relationship between them.

Zhao Wanyi only felt that her young girl's heart was completely broken.

She just wanted to gain the emperor's favor, share her father's worries, and win some glory for her family. Did she make any big mistake?

Why was it so difficult? She couldn't understand.

Zhao Wanyi could no longer care about anything else and burst into tears.

Bo Muxi had a blank expression on his face, and the downward-curved corners of his mouth revealed his inner impatience.

The Queen pretended to comfort her with a few words, but more often than not, she was accusing her.

The queen is not only good at watching the fire from the other side of the river, but also likes to kill people and destroy their hearts.

In the harem, good people don't live long.

The queen's decision has never been about preference, but only about position. From the moment Zhao Wanyi entered the palace and the moment she decided to join Concubine Zhao, the enemy and us were destined to be each other.

The queen would never show mercy to her enemies. She wanted to completely defeat Zhao Jingzi psychologically.

Bo Muxi looked up at the ceiling, as if he was thinking hard, or seemed heartbroken.

After a while, he sighed and said, "Lin En, pass on my decree. Zhao Wanyi has bad conduct and is unworthy of her position. She will be demoted to a talented person and her name card will be removed for three months."

Lin En quickly agreed.

For a moment, Wanyi became a talented person, and Cairen Zhao became a complete joke.

This stunning woman who was specially named a noble lady when she entered the palace, and then was highly favored and promoted out of turn, was exploited like a grass.

I thought that with the support of the Queen Mother, the position of the Nine Concubines would be just around the corner. Who could have thought that her demotion would be even more powerful than her promotion?

When Zhao Cairen heard this, she suddenly felt her blood flowing backwards, her eyes turned black, and she fainted.

But before she closed her eyes, she still had deep hatred for Shen Zhiyao in her heart...

At this point, the emperor has no intention of pursuing the real culprit anymore. This is the best outcome.

In a short while, the news of the explosion spread to Cuiweixuan.

After hearing this, Shen Zhiyao curled her lips indifferently.

"Master, was Qingmiao really killed by Concubine Zhao?" Qiuyue asked with trembling lips.

Since entering the palace, Qiuyue once again felt truly afraid.

A palace maid was suspected to have died at the hands of her own master. How could this not be a mental shock to the other palace maids?

"This matter has nothing to do with us, so don't think about it. In this harem, truth and falsehood are never important. I carefully selected you from home and brought you in. Cuiweixuan will be counting on you to work hard in the future, so you need to be more stable than others." Shen Zhiyao said.

"Yes, master, I will remember it." Qiuyue responded quickly.

In this harem, there are many things that cannot be taken seriously, such as the emperor's favor, and the results announced after careful investigation. If you take them seriously, you will lose.
