She practiced the Beast Taming Sect's physical training technique - "The Divine Movement Physical Training Technique".

This technique is similar to the martial arts secrets in the mortal world.

The difference is that one needs to use spiritual consciousness to outline the routes for exercising in the body and guide the flow of true Qi.

First train the skin and flesh, then the tendons and bones, and then the internal organs.

Jiang Li’s spiritual awareness is only at the Qi training stage. He can only look inwards but not outwards. However, it is enough for practicing this technique.

At this moment, she only felt a stream of true energy generated in her dantian, flowing through the eight extraordinary meridians throughout her body, tempering her skin and flesh.

She used her spiritual consciousness to drive the true qi, and after it circulated rapidly throughout her body, the true qi returned to her dantian and seemed to have grown a lot stronger.

Jiang Li was overjoyed. She didn't expect that this body had such excellent muscles and bones that it was actually very suitable for the body-building exercises in the cultivation world.

After practicing for a few days, you can develop some internal strength.

At this time, the cat jumped lightly from the wall, meowing anxiously.

"Master, Master, this is bad. Xiaobai said that Concubine Zhou wants to harm you!"

"Ah? What does she want to do?" Jiang Li was shocked.

Cats are animals that are particularly good at observing people's words and expressions, and are very sensitive to human likes and dislikes.

The little white cat didn’t quite understand the conversation between Concubine Zhou and Nanny Gong, but it could feel their deep malice towards “Concubine Yu”.

It quickly told the cat the news.

"He said he wanted to ask the master to plant some kind of...seed poison in the emperor's heart."

Jiang Li's face turned grim. Putting a curse on someone? Or putting a curse on the emperor?

This idea is really vicious. Using her as a medium, if the plan fails, all the blame can be put on her!

"Why did she cast a spell on the emperor?"

"I don't know. Can you ask Xiaobai?"

What should I do? Jiang Li's brain was working rapidly.

At this moment, the door of the cold palace opened with a creaky sound, and someone else came!

Jiang Li calmed himself down and went out to take a look, only to see an old maid and several palace maids walking in.

"Empress Yu, the Imperial Concubine is summoning you, please come in—"

Jiang Li's heart sank. She didn't expect Concubine Zhou to be so impatient.

She pretended to be innocent and bewildered, "Mammy, why does the imperial concubine want to see me?"

"Of course it's a good thing. Your Majesty will know when you get there."

Nanny Gong had a kind face, but she ordered the palace servants to take Jiang Li away without any explanation.

She took Jiang Li directly to the side hall of the Imperial Concubine's Palace and arranged for the palace maids to bathe and dress her.

Jiang Li did not resist. She allowed the palace maid to bathe her in fragrant water and rub perfumed lotion all over her body, while she communicated with the little white cat through the contract in her mind.

Xiaobai is not as intelligent as Huahua, his memory is sporadic, and he doesn't quite understand human language.

It probably remembered some phrases that Concubine Zhou and Madam Gong often said, such as "Yong'an Palace", "Fengyi Palace", "This palace can't wait any longer", "Mother-child Gu", "Virgin"...

Jiang Li roughly pieced together the facts from these key words and couldn't help but grit his teeth.

She had some understanding of mother and child Gu when she was in the world of cultivation. No matter which kind it was, the mother Gu controlled the child Gu.

Concubine Zhou wants to control the emperor and use her as a medium. If the truth ever comes to light, she will be the scapegoat!

The palace maid changed Jiang Li into a dress of smoked gauze and blue silk, and inserted a pearl hairpin diagonally into her drooping hair, which made her look even more icy and graceful, like a jade holding a pearl or a flower covered with morning dew.

After finishing her makeup, Concubine Zhou came over.

"Greetings to Her Majesty the Imperial Concubine!" Jiang Li bowed gracefully.

A hand painted with bright red nail polish lifted her chin.

Jiang Li raised her eyes and saw Concubine Zhou wearing a goose yellow palace dress, with a face like a lotus and unparalleled beauty.

Although she is over thirty years old, she is still extremely beautiful, with a pair of affectionate eyes that can show joy or anger, and infinite charm in her eyes. This is the time when a woman is the most mature and charming.

"You are really naturally beautiful. I feel pity for you." Concubine Zhou laughed tenderly, "Get up."

"Your Majesty is a beauty of heaven, and I am a weakling, not even a fraction as beautiful as you."

Jiang Li stood up and stood aside with his head down.

"This little mouth is quite sweet." Concubine Zhou giggled and pulled her to sit beside her affectionately.

"I cannot bear to see you wasting your prime years in the cold palace. Have you ever thought about regaining your favor?"

Concubine Zhou had a warm smile on her face, but a hint of gloom flashed across her eyes.

"I... don't dare to have such extravagant hopes." Jiang Li pretended to wipe away tears.

Concubine Zhou smiled and said, "I'll give you a chance. His Majesty will come tonight, you must seize the opportunity."

"Really?" Jiang Li tried her best to resist the urge to scratch her face and pretended to be surprised.

She said shyly, "Your Majesty, I will never forget your kindness!"

"well!"

Seeing that she was so tactful, Concubine Zhou smiled even more charmingly and patted her hand gently, "Well, sister, take a rest first. I'll be back soon."

She walked out of the side hall and whispered to Madam Gong beside her, "Light the incense. When will we use that thing?"

Madam Gong whispered, "Wait until she falls asleep, then you can start."

After Jiang Li practiced martial arts, her hearing and eyesight became sharp, and she could hear clearly the whispers between Concubine Zhou and Nanny Gong.

Are you planning to knock her out and then poison her?

Jiang Li made up his mind and activated the contract, "Xiaobai, do it!"

In the blink of an eye, a white shadow rushed into the hall like lightning.

Amid the palace maids' exclamations, the little white cat pounced on Jiang Li and scratched her face twice!

"Ah——" Jiang Li screamed, covering his face with his hands, blood flowing from between his fingers.

Yuhua Palace was suddenly in chaos.

"Imperial Physician, call the Imperial Physician!"

After examining the patient, the imperial physician shook his head and sighed, "These scratches are too deep. The skin on your face is so delicate, I'm afraid it will leave scars!"

Concubine Zhou had a gloomy expression, "What an unlucky slave, ruining my plans!"

Originally, when the old emperor learned that Concubine Zhou wanted to win his favor by using Concubine Yu, he was very pleased and praised her for having the demeanor of the master of the harem.

Concubine Zhou was overjoyed and thought this move was brilliant. She never expected that her beloved pet's two paws would cause her to fail!

Concubine Zhou smashed another set of valuable porcelain and her face turned blue with anger.

"Why did Xiaobai suddenly go crazy?"

The little white cat was always docile and well-behaved, so why did it suddenly attack Jiang Li? Could it be that someone had secretly done something to it?

But only she and Nanny Gong knew the plan. Who would happen to ruin her plans at this critical moment?

"Is there anything on Lady Yu's body that would cause cats and dogs to go crazy?"

Concubine Zhou frowned and her face turned ashen.

"The imperial physician has examined it carefully and there is nothing wrong."

Madam Gong said, "I have checked the Yuhua Palace inside and out, but I didn't find anything unusual."

"Then in your opinion..."

Matron Gong stepped forward and lowered her voice and said, "This old servant guesses that maybe Concubine Yu was contaminated by something dirty in the cold palace..."

"You mean, Li Cairen?"

When Concubine Zhou thought of Concubine Li who died in the cold palace, she felt a chill down her spine.

"Hurry up and drag her away. I don't want to see this unlucky thing again!"

She really wanted to beat this little bitch to death with a stick, but the person who hurt her was her beloved one, and Concubine Yu was a palace concubine of a certain rank, so she couldn't be executed at will.

However, as a noble concubine, she has plenty of ways to torture an abandoned concubine in the cold palace.
