All the concubines in the harem are time travelers

Li Er started crying upon seeing this, and lay down beside her, shouting.

"Master, let me take your punishment. I came to the palace with you to protect you from disaster."

"Stay away!"

Bu Ji was angry. She hated to hear such words the most.

All human lives are the same, there is no distinction between high and low, and there is no such thing as one person protecting someone else from disaster.

To implicate the Bu family because of her affairs... is absolutely unacceptable.

She traveled through time and borrowed Bu Ji's body, which was already unfair to Bu Yushi's family, causing them to lose their daughter for no reason.

If she implicates them again, she will be a sinner for all eternity.

Li'er was pulled aside by Qinyin, who stopped her from rushing forward. She cried heart-wrenchingly, as if Bu Ji had already passed away.

Cui Lihua pointed at Bu Ji coldly and shouted.

"Hit me!"

Bu Ji didn't have time to grit her teeth before the board hit her thin back hard.

The cloth in his mouth fell to the ground stained with blood.

Damn it, the TV show is just a lie.

How could it not hurt? It hurts so much that blood is gushing out of my mouth.

Li'er was trapped by the sound of the piano and tears rolled down her cheeks in anxiety.

"Master, Master..."

The board continued to fall mercilessly. Beads of cold sweat broke out on Bu Ji's forehead. He gritted his teeth and groaned, but had no intention of begging for mercy. His voice was so low and hoarse that it was almost a whimper as he tried to comfort Li'er.

"Don't worry...it's okay...I can hold on."

She inexplicably felt that she was physically disabled but mentally strong. If she had known that being caned would be so painful, she would never have laughed when watching palace fighting dramas.

Cui Lihua did this just to vent her anger. She was jealous that the emperor turned over someone else's green card last night, and it was not directed at anyone.

She doesn't hide, she just takes it.

If she hid, Cui Lihua would really hate her.

Her entire back felt as if it had been cut open by an ice knife, and the gnawing pain from her bone marrow gradually corroded her nerves.

After a few blows, the previous severe pain has been sublimated to numbness...

All the palace servants in the courtyard were watching the show. No one wanted to plead for Concubine Bu. How could a mere noble lady who served the emperor for one night compare to the imperial concubine who had enjoyed the emperor's favor for two years?

Waves of burning pain gradually eroded all his senses, but Bu Ji did not beg or scream. He just gritted his teeth and endured the pain.

She raised her head, her hair messy, and asked.

"If I die, aren't you afraid of going to hell?"

Cui Lihua sneered and whispered in her ear.

"I've already been through a place like this, so why am I afraid of going to hell?"

Bu Ji felt disheartened. It turned out that Cui Lihua had always disliked this place and she was seeking favor in order to make her life more comfortable.

That's right, she was a trainee before she traveled through time, and was about to debut, but suddenly she came here and failed at the last minute. No one could bear it.

Is she going to torture others just because she is frustrated? That's unreasonable.

Li'er's face was pale. She pulled Qinyin's sleeve and cried.

"Please ask the Imperial Concubine to stop beating us. Our master is too weak to handle it."

Qinyin shook her head and pulled her back, preventing her from running forward and colliding with Concubine Jia.

It is not so easy for a noble to die, but it is not necessarily the case for a palace maid.

She was also doing this for Li'er's own good.

Cui Lihua glanced at Bu Ji with disdain. Her innocent eyes and expression showed that this woman was really good at pretending to be weak.

However, a simple and kind-hearted person like Bu Ji is nothing to be afraid of.

She can only be the most favored concubine in this palace.

Thinking of this, Cui Lihua couldn't help but smile triumphantly. Seeing that the lesson was almost over, she was about to speak.

A cold and stern voice came from behind, "What are you all doing here?"

Cui Lihua looked in the direction of the voice and saw it was the emperor. She ran over quickly and threw herself into his arms like a little rabbit that had been wronged.

"Your Majesty, you are finally here."

The faint fragrance of orchid filled her arms, Li Ji looked at her sharply, patted her shoulder soothingly, and asked.

"What happened? Don't be afraid, I'm here."

He glanced coldly at the front of the hall again, where a woman was being tortured. He frowned, gently let go of Cui Lihua, and shouted in a cold voice.

"Who gave you permission to lynch here?"

Cui Lihua took a step forward, intentionally blocking his view, her little face started crying, and she pouted her red lips in grievance and said.

"She offended me, and I was so angry that I couldn't take it anymore."

She knew very well that any man liked weak women, especially a supreme ruler like Li Ji.

Bu Ji vomited blood again and felt so sick to his stomach that he couldn't speak. This time it was because he was angry with Cui Lihua.

Who committed the crime?

She has been charged with three crimes in such a short period of time. If you don't know, you might think she traveled through time to become the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple.

Li Ji's cold and charming eyes swept over the woman who was beaten all over in front of the palace, slowly raised his thin lips, and snorted coldly with a smile.

He stretched out his long arms, put them around Cui Lihua's slender waist, and embraced her as they walked into the hall.

"I know, it's her fault."

"Let's go into the temple. We have something for you."

Bu Ji endured the pain in his back, glared at Li Ji fiercely and said angrily.

"Li Ji, your uncle!"

"Your whole family is in trouble!"

No, his whole family seemed to include her.

“I’m the best!”

Li Ji was about to enter the hall when he heard familiar yet strange words. He was slightly stunned and turned around abruptly, seeing a dying woman lying on a chair.

When did she meet Prince Rong?

Prince Rong, the eldest brother of the late emperor, is of noble status and is Li Ji's true "uncle".

He let go of Cui Lihua's hand and walked steadily in front of the two of them. He looked down at the woman covered in blood coldly. It was really her.

Li'er was shaking all over. He immediately moved to the ground and begged in a pitiful voice.

"Your Majesty, please save our master."

Li Ji's gentle brows were restrained, revealing a cold and murderous aura, and he said with amusement.

"Save her? Why save her?"

"Your master just said that she is better than anyone else."

With just one glance, he knew the whole story. It was nothing more than a competition for favor and power among concubines. Those in higher positions naturally had the right to deal with those in lower positions.

He didn't have the mind to judge who was right or wrong among the concubines, but it had been a long time since anyone in the palace had competed for favor with Concubine Jia.

He had the illusion that among the three thousand beauties in the harem, only one was devoted to him.

This illusion was very unpleasant for the emperor.

Li'er risked offending the emperor's authority, grabbed a corner of the emperor's dragon robe, and cried.

"The censor has only one legitimate daughter, our young master. Please, His Majesty, take into account that Censor Bu is a veteran of two dynasties and have mercy on our master."

Bu Ji had no favor in this deep palace and could only move out of her mother's home to get a little mercy from the emperor.

But Li'er had miscalculated. How could the emperor care about the face of a small censor, especially since the two of them had just had a tit-for-tat confrontation in the court.

Bu Ji stared at Li'er in surprise with eyes wide open.

Are you thinking that she didn't die fast enough? Why are you mentioning her biological father at this time?

Her father did not give the emperor face in the court, so how could the emperor pity her in the harem?
