The book begins with the waste of all the members

After returning to the palace, Wei Yu was greeted by a large crowd of onlookers, starting with the palace maids from Chengming Palace. They were greeted from the moment they entered the palace.

Then Bai Shuyang, Si Muchu and others came.

After that, the concubines from various palaces and even the empress dowager came to show their concern for her.

You can imagine how big a fuss this incident caused.

It only took half a day for everyone to know.

When the concubines from various palaces came to pay their respects, Wei Yu noticed that in addition to Concubine Chen and Concubine Xian, there was also Wu Shuzhen, who was cuckolded by Si Muzhen in the later period.

After asking, she found out that Wu Shuzhen had changed her mind and refused to leave the palace again. Si Muzhen had no choice but to let her go even though she was unwilling. She couldn't force her out of the palace.

After all the concubines left, the queen mother came.

"I heard you were poisoned, so I came to see you."

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."

"You have offended a lot of people. You have already left the palace, but you still chased them out of the palace to poison them. You are quite a failure as a person." The Queen Mother said sarcastically.

Wei Yu originally didn't think that the Queen Mother would truly care about her, and didn't care much about her attitude.

However, Wei Yu noticed that the Queen Mother said that she was chased out of the palace and poisoned.

"Could it be that the Queen Mother knows something?"

The Queen Mother was speechless for a moment, then smiled unnaturally and said, "What could I possibly know? Could it be that you still suspect that I ordered Wei Qi to do this?"

"It's not impossible..." Wei Yu said directly, "If the Queen Mother is still determined to make me give up the throne to the daughter of the Su family, she might really do it."

The Queen Mother snorted coldly, "Absurd, this is nonsense. If I wanted you dead, do you think you could still live well?"

The Queen Mother stood up and said, "It seems that I am ungrateful and have cared about the wrong person. Queen, please think about who in this palace wants you dead the most."

"Don't blame me for not reminding you. Recently, Noble Concubine Chen's sister has been frequently leaving the palace to wander around, mostly visiting restaurants and shops near the Wei Mansion. Perhaps you could remind the Emperor to check on Noble Concubine Chen."

After saying this, the Queen Mother left.

Wei Yu fell into deep thought. His existence had indeed become the biggest stumbling block for Concubine Chen. In the original work, Concubine Chen had already become Imperial Concubine Chen by this time.

In this case, it is understandable that she wants to eliminate herself.

However, Wei Yu always felt that this matter had nothing to do with Concubine Chen.

However, the words that the Queen Mother came to say to her were also very strange.

A guess flashed through Wei Yu's mind.

"Let's go to Xiankun Palace." Wei Yu said.

Yinlan was the first to object, "Your Majesty, no! If what the Queen Mother said is true, and Concubine Chen wants to harm you, you'll be walking into a trap."

Xiao Lin also felt that "Your Majesty should leave this matter to the Emperor."

"What do you think his reaction would be if I told him I suspected Concubine Chen was the mastermind? Would he think I was trying to sow discord and then become disgusted with me, or what?"

Xiao Lin hesitated and said, "If it were in the past, the Emperor would definitely side with Concubine Chen, but now, I think the Emperor will definitely stand on your side."

"This is the Empress Dowager's plan. If the Emperor and I become estranged, then if I make a mistake in the future, the Emperor can easily depose me. This is the first reason. Secondly, if the Emperor truly believes what I say, then, regardless of whether she ends up being Noble Consort Chen or not, Noble Consort Chen's weight in the Emperor's heart will definitely be even lower."

No matter what the outcome is, the Queen Mother's niece is sure to win.

Of course, Wei Yu came to this conclusion entirely on the premise of trusting Concubine Chen.

Now, she wants to test her premise. If it is not Concubine Chen, then the Queen Mother is very suspicious.

"Why did the Queen Mother do this?" Yinlan asked in confusion.

"I don't know. Maybe she's trying to pave the way for her niece. Or maybe she simply dislikes me and wants the Emperor to dislike me as well."

"I don't think so." Yinlan said.

"Who knows..." Wei Yu stood up, "Let's go to Xian Kun Palace and bring some snacks for Yi Xin."

Although she didn't want Wei Yu to go find Concubine Chen, Yin Lan still went to prepare snacks for Yi Xin.

Xiankun Palace ____

"Mother went to visit the Queen Mother without bringing Yixin with her." Yixin crossed her arms and felt a little upset.

Concubine Chen squatted down and explained, "The Empress is ill. When she recovers, mother will take Yixin to pay her respects to her."

"really?"

"real."

"Great, Yixin loves mother the most." Yixin was ecstatic.

When Concubine Chen heard Yi Xin say this, her smile froze on her face for a moment.

Yun Yunyao, who was standing by, couldn't stand it any longer. She rudely pulled Yi Xin over and shouted, "This is your real mother. You keep saying that your beloved queen mother almost made you unable to give birth. Your queen mother is a bad woman..."

"Aunt, you are talking nonsense. Mother is not a bad woman." Yi Xin tried to defend Wei Yu, but she was only four years old and her ability to express herself was limited.

"She is a bad woman. She is the bad woman who stole your father away."

"Shut up! Do you know what you are saying? Is this something you should say to Yi Xin?" Concubine Chen shouted to stop her from continuing.

"Am I wrong? Didn't she steal the Queen's throne? You are the Queen now, and it was because of her sister that you and the Emperor fell out, right? What was I wrong about? She is now trying to steal her sister's Yi Xin."

Yun Yunyao was so angry that she blurted out everything, "If it weren't for that woman, why wouldn't the Emperor come to see me? It must be that vixen who bewitched the Emperor..."

Concubine Chen couldn't stand it any longer and slapped Yun Yunyao in the face.

"Sister, you hit me..." Yun Yunyao's eyes were filled with tears and grievance. "Sister has never hit me since I was a child, and now you hit me for that woman."

That woman——Wei Yu was standing at the door at this moment, her foot half-stretched out stopped in mid-air. Was she going to go in or out...

Xiao Lin announced loudly, "The Queen has arrived~~"

Yi Xin immediately ran to Wei Yu, hugged Wei Yu's legs and said, "The Queen Mother is not a bad woman, right?"

Wei Yu grabbed the pigtail on his little head and said, "How is that possible? Mother is a bad woman." She opened her mouth wide and said, "She is so bad that she can eat several children in one bite."

Yi Xin was amused and laughed out loud.

Wei Yu opened the food box he brought, and inside were egg yolk pastries in the shapes of various small animals, as well as small biscuits that looked like Tianci.

"So cute, there are still one, two, three, four, five, six, and seven more Tianci." Yi Xin counted on her fingers.

"Be good, Tianci. Go to the tea room with Sister Yinlan to have some snacks first. The Queen Mother has something to say to your mother."

"Okay." Yi Xin turned to Concubine Chen and said, "Mother, can I eat?"

"Okay, follow Sister Yinlan."

Yinlan took Yixin away.

Concubine Chen also asked Yun Yunyao to leave first, but was stopped by Wei Yu.

Yun Yunyao looked at Wei Yu with dissatisfaction.

Wei Yu’s thoughts at this moment were: I like the way you can’t stand me but can’t get rid of me, and you keep holding back your dissatisfaction.

"You said I'm a bad woman?" Wei Yu asked directly.
