I just want to rob you of your luck

Lin Jiuer was stunned for a moment, then she understood what Song meant. In fact, she had always intended to use contraception.

She is now completely focused on the palace fighting, so how can she have the mood to have a baby? Moreover, Zhu Heng has so many women, and her modern soul really can't accept it.

I don't want to give birth to a baby for him.

But in order to comfort Song, she still said: "Don't worry, mother, I have been taking care of my body recently, and everything will go with the flow."

Song did not continue talking about this topic.

Lin Jiuer asked, "How are your preparations for the Autumn Examination going?"

In her memory, the original owner's brother seemed to have some talent for studying. If he could pass the imperial examination and get a job in the future, he would not only be able to take good care of his family, but would also be of some help to her.

Song smiled with some pride: "Your brother said that he has an 80% chance of passing the exam this time."

The ancients liked to be modest, and saying 80% was basically a sure thing.

Lin Jiuer was happy and talked a lot with Song.

After having lunch together, they prepared a lot of gifts for her and asked someone to send her back to the Lin family.

After Song left, Lin Jiuer was in a good mood. It seemed that Zhu Heng was paying more and more attention to her.

She opened the system task panel and saw that the task progress bar had reached 30%.

It seems that Concubine Zhao's conspiracies have been exposed one after another recently, making Zhu Heng very disappointed in her.

At night, Zhu Heng originally planned to come to Changle Palace. When he reached an intersection, he suddenly saw a woman in a plain white dress flash by in the corner.

He was a little curious. It was already late at night. Who would be walking outside in white clothes in the middle of the night?

Seeing that he was about to chase after him, Fushun reminded him, "Your Majesty, you have already informed Concubine Wan that she will be there tonight."

Zhu Heng thought about it and agreed. It was getting late and that woman was just some boring concubine in the harem.

It’s okay not to look at it.

He let the sedan chair continue to move forward, but after only two steps, he heard some noises.

It sounded a bit like the sound of sword dancing, and the sound came from the direction where the woman had just disappeared.

He was really curious and said, "Let's go over there and take a look."

Fu Shun was speechless. The methods used in the harem to win favor were endless.

The group passed through a forest and saw a woman in white standing in an open space dancing with a sword in the moonlight.

Her long hair was tied casually behind her head with a plain ribbon. Her figure was graceful, and her every move was sometimes gentle and sometimes fierce.

Although Zhu Heng only saw her back, he was already deeply attracted to her.

A breeze blew in the night, and the woman's gauze dress fluttered with her movements. The silver moonlight seemed to give her a halo.

The whole person is as ethereal and inviolable as a fairy from the Moon Palace.

Suddenly, the woman stopped dancing with the sword and knelt down in front of a jade Buddha on the ground not far away.

Zhu Heng felt a little strange, and he quietly walked forward for a distance.

Then I heard the sound of prayers that sounded like complaints and tears.

"I only wish Your Majesty good health and success in everything, and I hope that Daliang will have good weather and peace. I have no other requests, but only hope that I can always be by Your Majesty's side. If this comes true, I am willing to offer blood as a sacrifice every month, and pray for the Buddha to show his power!"

As she spoke, she picked up the sword and slashed it towards her wrist.

"No!"

Zhu Heng's heart tightened. He didn't expect that she would suddenly attack him. He yelled and rushed over.

But it was still a step too late. The blood on the woman's wrist instantly flowed down like beads from a broken string and dripped onto the jade Buddha.

His shout made the woman freeze. She turned around in disbelief, tears still on her face.

"Did the Buddha really appear? Am I dreaming? Did His Majesty really come to see me?"

What she said made Zhu Heng feel sad, and he recognized who the woman was.

It was Concubine Zhao who he had neglected for many days.

In fact, when he saw the sword dance just now, he had already vaguely guessed the woman's identity.

Because the only concubine in the palace who was good at sword dancing was Concubine Zhao.

He was just curious and wanted to see what Concubine Zhao was up to.

Seeing that blood was still dripping from Concubine Zhao's wrist, he walked forward and picked her up, pressing her wound with his other hand.

"Go and call the imperial physician."

Concubine Zhao stared at Zhu Heng infatuatedly, as if she had not yet come to her senses.

"Brother Heng, is it really you who came? Am I dreaming? The Buddha really appeared!"

Zhu Heng looked at her pretty face, which had become much thinner, with some pity.

"I'm here."

"I'm so happy." After saying this, Concubine Zhao fainted.

Zhu Heng quickened his pace and carried Concubine Zhao to Yaohua Palace. The noise he made attracted the attention of many palace servants.

Lin Jiuer was almost falling asleep while waiting in Changle Palace, but she didn't see Zhu Heng coming.

Later, the palace servants were asked to inquire around, and only then did they learn that Zhu Heng had actually gone to Concubine Zhao's Yaohua Palace.

And he carried Concubine Zhao with him.

Lin Jiuer sneered. It seemed that Concubine Zhao had become smarter and actually knew how to use the self-torture trick.

Before, Concubine Zhao had always been mindless and headed straight for the task, she thought this task was not difficult at all.

That’s right. This makes it feel a bit challenging.

After a while, a young eunuch beside Zhu Heng came to inform that the emperor was resting in Yaohua Palace and told Lin Jiuer there was no need to wait.

Lin Jiuer agreed indifferently, then went to take a shower and go to bed.

In Yaohua Palace, Zhu Heng heard the imperial physician say that Concubine Zhao was in a coma because she had lost too much blood, was worried too much, and was depressed.

When he came over, he found that Nanny Cai was also there. He was a little surprised, but when he thought about the fact that Concubine Zhao's personal maids had been executed, he understood.

Madam Cai fell asleep on the footstool under Concubine Zhao's bed and was only awakened after being given several injections by the imperial physician.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw His Majesty sitting beside her, looking at her solemnly.

She immediately knelt down in panic and said, "I didn't know your Majesty had arrived. I am sorry for the inconvenience. I will ask your Majesty to get up and greet you."

She looked at the bed and saw Concubine Zhao lying there with a pale face, her breathing seemed very weak, and she was motionless.

Zhu Heng said calmly: "No need to shout, your master has lost too much blood and is unconscious."

Nanny Cai looked at her master on the bed with shock, and then wiped away her tears with heartache.

Fortunately, their plan was successful, at least it proved that His Majesty still cares about the Queen.

Zhu Heng was a little annoyed: "Okay, I will stay here tonight, you all can leave."

Nanny Cai didn't dare to say anything more and retreated with the palace maids.

The next day, Lin Jiuer heard that His Majesty had restored Concubine Zhao's position as Imperial Concubine and gave her the power to assist in managing the six palaces.

Yuling said with some concern: "Master, Concubine Zhao is back in favor this time, will she target you again?"

Lin Jiuer smiled faintly. She might want to kill her, but she probably wouldn't do anything to her for the time being.

Or use other means to deal with her.

She needed to be extra careful from now on.

After Concubine Zhao regained her favor this time, she did not have the concubines pay their respects to her every day as she did in the past.

It is enough to just inform everyone to pay respects on the first and fifteenth day of every month.

Zhu Heng seemed to have regained his favor for her, and he spent half of his time in the harem in Yaohua Palace.

But he would come to Lin Jiuer occasionally, but he didn't explain anything.

Concubine Zhao has become much more low-key. Lin Jiuer feels that she is planning to lie low and wait for an opportunity to take revenge on her.

Zhu Heng's birthday is in eight days, which is also the Wanshou Festival. A grand banquet will be held in the palace, and many ministers and their families will be invited to celebrate together.
