The Destiny of Going to Hell

Here, Zhen Huan was discussing poetry with the emperor in the Qinzheng Hall, but she heard the eunuch report that Concubine Cao wanted to see her.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be blessed with good health." Concubine Cao bowed slightly while holding Wen Yi. "Why did you come here holding Wen Yi? It's so hot."

The emperor held Wen Yi in his arms and teased her. Concubine Cao and Zhen Huan bowed to each other. Zhen Huan's eyes were filled with hatred.

Concubine Cao sat aside and said with a smile, "I saw that the weather was cool and sunny, so I thought of taking Wen Yi out for a walk. It's not good for a child to stay in the room all the time. It's fresh outside."

The three of them chatted with each other, one word at a time, Yinzhen mentioned the snow-capped emerald sent by Yunli, and Concubine Cao also praised the Seventeenth Master for his cleverness.

Zhen Huan then talked about how life is short and everyone has different wishes, some hope their children are safe, some hope they can spend their days in leisure.

Zhen Huan looked at Wen Yi as she spoke, and Concubine Cao certainly understood what she meant. She was saying that she had joined Concubine Hua for Wen Yi, but had lost the opportunity to spend a leisurely life with Wen Yi, so it would be better for her to stay indoors.

What a joke. Without the help of that idiot Nian Shilan, what kind of good life can I, a concubine who is not favored by the emperor, bring to Wen Yi?

How precious could a princess of a noble family be? Didn't you see that Xin Guiren's Shuhe was still being tortured by the maids in Xiefang Palace? Without the protection of Concubine Hua and the money to pave the way, how could the people below treat Wen Yi well?

You want her to get off Nian Shilan's boat without any effort and just talk? What a dream.

When you have the bargaining chips, you can talk business with Cao Qinmo.

Cao Qinmo took a fruit from the plate and handed it to Yinzhen, but Yinzhen ignored her. Cao Qinmo put the fruit back on the plate and looked at Zhen Huan with a smile.

"Sister Wan, what you said is very coincidental. I heard that Sister Wan visited Shangshan Temple before the selection. I wonder what wish Sister Wan made at that time?"

Zhen Huan was startled, and when she met Cao Qinmo's half-raised eyebrows, she felt extremely annoyed.

"Sister Cao actually knew such a subtle secret," Zhen Huan said, saying that Cao Qinmo was deliberately looking for trouble and was investigating her as a private detective. "It's just some little girl's feelings. It's embarrassing to talk about it."

Zhen Huan wanted to laugh it off, but Cao Qinmo was unwilling to do so. However, Yinzhen was also intrigued by Zhen Huan's little girl behavior and became curious about what wish she had made.

Zhen Huan pretended to be deeply in love and looked at Yinzhen, hesitant to say something, "I once vowed to marry the best man in the world, to be together with him and grow old together."

After hearing this, Yinzhen started to imagine to himself that she loved him so much.

Although it's not as sincere as Mei'er's, it can still be considered as a deep love.

The atmosphere between the two was just right, but Cao Qinmo said, "A new maid came to Qingliang Terrace a few days ago. She said she had seen a good play at Shangshan Temple and told Concubine Hua about it. It seemed that her childhood sweetheart proposed to her in front of the temple."

This means that I don't have the time to investigate you, I just bumped into you.

It was a coincidence that she was worried about not being able to find any evidence against Zhen Huan to relieve Concubine Hua's worries, and then this person came immediately. She didn't want to believe it at first.

But after much investigation, it turns out that this maid is innocent and has no master behind her. (Shen Meizhuang hides her merits and fame, and is a player who slips through the cracks. Her main point is that she is good at using NPCs.)

After checking the matter, it was found that Zhen Huan was not wrongly accused. Many people saw it at that time.

Cao Qinmo took a sip of the teacup and drank it. Seeing Zhen Huan's expression becoming more and more stiff, she continued, "Sister, be careful. There are rejected beauties in the capital who are dissatisfied with you. They say that you didn't want to enter the palace but didn't withdraw from the list due to illness. You entered the palace and became a noble, which robbed her of her luck. Who knows, one day she will ruin your reputation in the capital."

Oh, sorry, it’s already ruined, Cao Qinmo laughed in his heart.

After Cao Qinmo finished speaking, Yinzhen and Zhen Huan's faces darkened. From a distance, they looked like a couple.

Seeing Zhen Huan's eyes full of hatred, Cao Qinmo felt no guilt. The one who flirts first is the one who is cheap. Besides, she was just trying to find a way to defeat Zhen Huan for Concubine Hua.

Cao Qinmo: There is nothing workers can do about it, they have a family to support.

Before Zhen Huan could think of a reply, Cao Qinmo spoke again, "But it's all hearsay, don't take it seriously. I was just talking about that at the time. That rejected concubine was probably jealous, how much truth can she say out of jealousy?"

At this time Wen Yi started crying, and Cao Qinmo quickly took Wen Yi back from Yinzhen.

Under her mother's gentle caressing and soothing, Wen Yi slowly calmed down. "Wen Yi is tired. I will take my leave. Let Concubine Wan serve the emperor on my behalf. I will take my leave."

Cao Qinmo used Wen Yi to get away. Her precious daughter was about to go to bed. Who would play with them? Just go and tear it apart by yourself.

Silence spread throughout the hall. There was no sound in the entire hall. Zhen Huan wanted to say something but was afraid to speak rashly. Finally, it was Yinzhen who spoke, "I still have things to deal with. Lady Wan should go back first."

Zhen Huan didn't want to leave. If she didn't explain some things now, she didn't know how they would develop in the future. But she didn't know where to start.

The emperor picked up the teacup and signaled Su Peisheng to see the guest off.

Zhen Huan walked out of the Qinzheng Palace, but she looked back every few steps, feeling melancholy.

Yinzhen tapped the table lightly, and Xia Qian appeared beside Yinzhen, "Go check whether what Concubine Cao just said is true or false."

Xia Qian took the order and disappeared into the hall. Yinzhen's face was calm as water, but his heart was not at peace at all.

She didn't want to participate in the selection, she wanted to marry the best man, she wanted to marry him... Why did she feel her face turning green the more she thought about it?

Is this true or not?

No matter what the outcome is, Yinzhen will always feel uncomfortable, and this is exactly what Cao Qinmo wants.

A thousand-mile dam can be breached by a single ant hole. Sooner or later, this problem will be magnified infinitely.

Yinzhen was anxiously awaiting the results of Xia Qi's investigation, desperate to confirm whether he had been cuckolded and forced to dye his hair.

On the way back to Bitong Academy, Zhen Huan was worried and ran into Prince Guo, who was crazy about love and wanted to meet him as soon as possible.
