After being married off by my younger sister, I became the most beloved person in the palace

"Mrs. Shen thinks that Concubine De is incapable of distinguishing right from wrong?" Xiao Lianzi asked.

Mother Shen's face suddenly changed, and she quickly shook her head: "No, no, no, father-in-law, please don't misunderstand me, that's not what I meant."

"Yes." Little Lianzi said respectfully but indifferently, "Your Majesty is kind. Since the young lady is pregnant, you have spared her punishment and even invited the imperial physician to accompany her for treatment. However, Lord Shen and Madam Shen should also give her careful advice and teach her well. If there is a next time, Your Majesty will not let her off easily."

"Yes, yes, I will definitely keep a close eye on her and not let her make mistakes again." Mother Shen responded with fear in her heart. She did not dare to say a word in rebuttal, but she hated Gu Jinse in her heart. She could not even bring her a bit of joy when she was pregnant.

This scourge.

He was favored by the Tenth Princess and entered the palace for a banquet, but instead of seizing the opportunity, he got into trouble and offended Concubine De.

Xiao Lianzi spoke a few more words to the imperial physician and then left.

Mother Shen stood beside the bed, glaring at the unconscious Gu Jinse with gritted teeth, her eyes blazing with fire and her chest heaving violently with anger.

She shouldn't have expected anything from Gu Jinse.

"Walk."

Mother Shen said in a cold voice, then turned and left with Mother Wang.

After a while, Gu Jinse, who had been lying on the bed with her eyes closed, slowly opened her eyes. Her hands under the quilt were clenched into fists, and her pretty face became distorted and hideous because of anger and unwillingness.

She knew the character of Shen's mother clearly, and she would definitely scold herself severely if she was punished by Concubine De.

So she pretended to be asleep and deal with it first.

As for the future... since she is pregnant with the Shen family's grandson, I believe the Shen family will not do anything to her.

Lin Jianyue, this bitch.

I was her nemesis in my previous life, and in this life, I still fell into her hands.

If I live my life again, how could I not be able to defeat her?

If the baby in her belly hadn't escaped the disaster today, she would have been crippled if not disabled after thirty strokes of the stick.

She will not let Lin Jianyue go and will make her feel a life worse than death.

……

Although Gu Jinse made a scene, the banquet was not affected.

However, the Tenth Princess still felt a little depressed.

Liu Zhenzhen said earnestly in her ear: "I told you long ago that she is not a good person. Look, she dared to cause trouble the first time she entered the palace, without any regard for your face. You must stay away from her in the future."

The Tenth Princess clenched her fist angrily: "I know, cousin."

Putting Gu Jinse aside, the banquet was still very harmonious.

It was not until night fell that people left one after another.

Gu Jinse said goodbye to Liu Zhenzhen and Zhou Mengyu, got on the carriage, and drove slowly on the wide street.

In the carriage, Ruyi held it in for a long while, and finally couldn't help but speak: "Princess, the Second Miss is right, that person is Lin Jianyue."

"Yeah." Gu Zhiyin nodded.

Ruyi gasped, "The Virtuous Consort is the Third Prince's biological mother. She must have known Lin Jianyue's identity, so she protected her. The Second Miss thought she had Lin Jianyue's handle, but she ignored the reason why she stayed in the palace."

Lin Jianyue was a weak woman. No matter how smart she was, it was impossible for her to escape from Jingzhao Yin's cell and become a maid in Defei's palace.

So there must be someone behind her.

Gu Zhiyin chuckled and said, "Gu Jinse got so excited when she saw Lin Jianyue that she didn't care about anything. She couldn't even understand such a simple thing. Not to mention that Concubine De would never admit Lin Jianyue's identity, even if she was really deceived by Lin Jianyue, Gu Jinse shouldn't have pointed it out. Doesn't she care about Concubine De's face?"

Ruyi smacked her lips and said, "Second Miss has been blinded by hatred. I don't know what hatred or grudge the two have. Second Miss is simply shooting herself in the foot by doing this."

A life-and-death vengeance from the previous life.

So when Gu Jinse saw the opportunity to get rid of Lin Jianyue, she completely forgot about reason.

"Just keep this to yourself, don't spread it out, or you'll get resentful from Concubine De."

Among the concubines in the harem, how many are easy to get along with?

Ruyi and Zhuqi looked at each other and nodded.

Gu Zhiyin told the old princess and others about the fact that Lin Jianyue faked her death and changed her identity to enter the palace and become a maid beside Concubine De the next day.

Although the old princess was shocked, she quickly accepted it.

Wen was a little dazed and was completely confused when she left Chaohui Hall.

Fu Zheng didn't have any major emotional ups and downs. As long as this woman didn't harm them in the palace, it didn't matter who she became.

Fu Yunyao was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but sigh: "It's not that easy to die. What's Yun Jing's reaction?"

Gu Zhiyin: "Very calm."

No matter how sad and upset Fu Yunjing was in his heart, he couldn't show it on his face. When his grandmother tested him, he just replied indifferently, "Oh."

Then left.

Fu Yunyao sighed: "It's abnormal to have no reaction, right?"

Gu Zhiyin thought about it and nodded in agreement.

It may not be that he is reluctant to let go of Lin Jianyue, but it is impossible for him to let go of Lin Jianyue's betrayal so quickly.

Well, it's a pity that it still can't shake his determination to strive for progress.

It’s just... quite helpless!

Do you really not want to stand in front of Lin Jianyue in glory and watch her regret and cry bitterly?

Fu Yunjing didn’t know whether Lin Jianyue would burst into tears, but he really wanted to cry now.

In the bright study of the Xue family, Fu Yunjing was writing a policy paper with a bitter and resentful look on his face, while Xue Mingyuan was sitting beside him, holding a thin rattan stick, staring at him with a fierce look, as if he would be punished with the stick if he dared to be lazy.

Fu Yunjing was eager to go back to the academy for class, but Xue Mingyuan said confidently: "It's common for you to skip classes anyway, so you don't even have to find a reason or an excuse."

Fu Yunjing: “…”

I feel sad, but I don’t say it.

In October, a major event occurred in the capital.

There was a severe drought in the Pengzhou area, and the crops failed. Several prefectures were affected. The government opened its granaries to provide relief grain, but it was a drop in the bucket.

The memorial was rushed to the capital over a distance of 800 miles. Emperor Jianhe issued several imperial edicts to comfort the victims and ordered the Ministry of Revenue to open granaries and prepare food to be sent to the disaster-stricken areas.

However, the grain in the granaries, which had been well stocked, appeared to be intact on the surface. However, after an inventory, it was found that most of the grain had rotted and moldy. In the end, less than one-third of the grain could actually be sent to Pengzhou for disaster relief.

The emperor was furious and investigated the matter thoroughly.

The whole court was in a panic, and all the officials in the Ministry of Revenue were even more terrified.

It's also these people's fault for being too greedy. They took the good grain and sold it privately, and used the money to enrich themselves. If it were a peaceful and prosperous time, they would wait until the grain supply increased this year and then replace some of the bad grain, and nothing would have gone wrong. But this year, there was a severe drought in Pengzhou, and countless people died.

Since there was not enough food, it was natural that the warehouses in the capital had to be opened to provide relief.

But who would have thought that under the feet of the emperor, and under the emperor's nose, these people were so brazen as to be corrupt and break the law.

The salt permit corruption case has not been completely concluded yet. After one corrupt official after another was found out, Emperor Jianhe and Qidi couldn't sleep well. Now there is a grain case in the Ministry of Revenue.

It is difficult to calm his anger without killing him.

Someone couldn't resist the fear in his heart and hanged himself at home before he was investigated. This gave the three divisions an opportunity to break through.

Within a few days, all the corrupt officials in the Ministry of Revenue were caught one by one.
