Reborn, seduced the prince and killed his wife to become his favorite concubine

Zhou Defu's words seemed to have a hidden meaning.

"Didn't you say that it was in the Shangshu Palace? Could it be that... His Majesty lied to you?"

Bitao was a little confused.

But he just muttered a few words, took the night pearl and went to work immediately.

The situation has been peaceful for these few days, which shows that the emperor is extremely firm.

In the evening, after she had taken a shower, changed her clothes, and lay down after a full body massage, Bitao hurried back.

"My lady..."

As soon as I saw her, I felt so wronged that I almost cried.

"Why, were you beaten?"

She looked so pitiful that Shen Zhishu couldn't help but tease her.

"What are you talking about? Who would hit me? I just...I...How did you find out something was wrong? The emperor...he was not in the study, but returned to the Purple Palace early in the morning. I heard that Miss Tong from the Miao Territory was with the emperor."

Bitao was crying and looked resentful.

"It's actually her."

Having said that, Shen Zhishu was not surprised at all.

Because among the many beauties, she is the most outstanding and the most eye-catching.

And doesn't she worship the emperor as a god? This is so simple and straightforward, she will definitely take the initiative.

"She is the adopted daughter of Eunuch Zhou. Sister Shuyi, who is beside the emperor, secretly told me that the emperor was going to come here today and had already arrived at the Imperial Garden, but he was attracted by Miss Tong and returned to the palace."

Shen Zhishu probably thought this was the case.

But when I really heard it, I still felt a little bitter.

Although the emperor had feelings for her, he couldn't resist having so many other women.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor..."

Bitao looked at her and her eyes turned red.

It seemed to be saying that the emperor was finally taken away by another woman.

"The Emperor has never belonged to me alone, so why should I be sad?"

As she spoke, she yawned and closed her eyes.

"Tomorrow morning, I will go to pay my respects to the Queen Mother. Remember to wake me up."

She waved her hand and asked Bitao to go back and rest.

Bitao was very sad, and had originally planned to comfort the empress, but she didn't expect that she wouldn't even ask a single question.

But looking at the situation now, it would be best for her to quietly step down.

She turned off the light and quietly left the room.

Shen Zhishu turned over and fell asleep peacefully.

The next morning, they arrived at the Cining Palace.

If something happens in this palace, it can spread far and wide, and in a timely manner.

"I heard that the emperor has a new love?"

The Queen Mother is in good spirits.

She seems to be very happy these days, resting quietly without anyone disturbing her.

"I guess so. Yesterday, His Majesty favored Lady Tong and appointed Yu Mingmingzhu as a concubine."

Shen Zhishu responded with a faint smile.

It seems like a very trivial matter.

Such an attitude surprised the Queen Mother.

Having been in the palace for decades, she can clearly see what it means to pretend to be indifferent and what it means to be truly broad-minded.

And Concubine Xian belongs to the latter.

But isn't she thinking about the emperor? Such emotions don't seem like those of a love-struck woman.

"Ming Changzai is the apple of the eye of Grand Tutor Yuwen's eye. The Yuwen family has always been supporters of Prince Shuo. By sending their two daughters to the palace, they are surrendering to the emperor. The emperor should also give a response."

The Queen Mother explained calmly.

It seemed to be saying that the daughter of the Yuwen family was nothing to be feared.

"Do you know what Miss Tong did in the Imperial Garden yesterday?"

Isn't the implication that Miss Tong needs to be cared about?

"I have never heard of it."

"The Miao Territory is famous for its witchcraft. Tong Yuer grew up there since she was a child. She was raised by the Miao Saint. Her witchcraft is also first-rate. Just yesterday in the Imperial Garden, she used spices to attract butterflies. The entire Imperial Garden was filled with colorful butterflies dancing. The Emperor is probably curious about witchcraft."

Attract butterflies to win your favor?

This bridge...

Shen Zhishu had never heard of this before, but after his death in his previous life, when he saw Su Rong was bored in the harem, he also used this method to flirt with Yan Chu.

How come Tong Yuer can do it now?

"What a pity! I have lived to this age and have never seen such a wonder."

The Queen Mother smiled and shook her head.

"If the Queen Mother likes it, please ask Miss Tong to perform again another day. Since she is good at witchcraft, this little trick should be easy for her to perform."

So is there any connection between Tong Yuer and Su Rong?

"You think she is some kind of actress who can be summoned at any time. She is willing to spend time and energy on the emperor, but not on an old woman like me."

The Queen Mother laughed at herself.

"If she refuses, then she doesn't know that you, the Queen Mother, are a treasure."

An old woman like her is a tough character.

This sentence made the empress dowager's face wrinkled with laughter.

"Xianfei, I like you more and more."

Afterwards, Shen Zhishu chatted with the empress dowager for a whole morning and visited her before returning to Kunning Palace.

During this period, she also tested it, and her relationship with the third princess was the same as before.

I'm afraid the letter hasn't been exposed yet.

This is best, the longer she can hide, the less likely she will be suspected.

After all, when the Queen Mother really investigates the letter and doubts the exact time when it was delivered to her, I'm afraid she won't be able to verify it.

It was this third princess who had stayed in Kyoto for too long, which made people suspicious.

Thinking all the way.

As soon as I returned to Kunning Palace, I saw Yan Chu sitting there drinking tea.

Yunmeng was making tea in a proper manner on the side.

Just like that in the yard.

The first thing Shen Zhishu thought when he saw it was, why not go to Yunmeng House?

It's so boring to just have a sip of tea here.

If they go back to the room, Yunmeng might be able to teach Yan Chu some new ways to drink.

"just came back?"

When Yan Chu saw her, he naturally stood up to greet her.

"You didn't say you would come. I can't just wait here and do nothing, right?"

Shen Zhishu felt a little resentful.

"Angry?"

And Yan Chu could notice it immediately.

"Why are you angry? Your Majesty is here to see me. I am so happy."

She looked at Yan Chu with resentful eyes.

Then he instantly curled up the corners of his mouth, seeming very happy.

Yunmeng just watched them interact quietly, knowing that it would be better for her to be a little invisible at the moment.

"I brought you a lot of good things, go inside and take a look."

When the virtuous concubine came, the emperor stopped drinking tea.

The two of them went out and went back to the house together, just like a young couple who hadn't seen each other for a while.

She sat there alone, with a calm expression, drinking tea.

After a while, Ming Changzai and Yun Changzai came out together.

Inside the house, Shen Zhishu saw a room full of antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and a set of white jade chess.

All good stuff indeed.

"What does this mean, Your Majesty?"

Maybe he was using these things to cheer her up because of what happened yesterday.

So the emperor should care more about her feelings, and she should be content, right?

But on his face, he pretended not to understand.

"I gave it to you when I wanted to. Why do I need a reason to give something to Shu'er?"

Yan Chu couldn't possibly say that he was using these things to apologize for breaking his promise last night, right?
