My best friend is wearing a double body! Marry the emperor! Help me win the throne

Only then did Meng Yishu realize that the emperor didn't care what the truth was and was determined to protect Xue Youli.

The guard's big hands like iron clamps had already grabbed her.

Meng Yishu was also a spoiled young lady at home. She had never experienced such a scene before. She was so scared that tears streamed down her face. "Your Majesty, please spare me! I know I was wrong... Concubine Lan... Sister Xue... save me..."

She lay on the ground, struggling and crying, asking Shen Ruolan and Xue Qingyao for help, but unfortunately, they didn't want to pay any attention to her at all.

Useless trash!

Shen Ruolan quickly distanced herself from the matter, not wanting to be dragged into the water by her. "Your Majesty, Sister Xue and I were worried about your health, so we fell for Concubine Meng's trick. Thanks to your wisdom, you have uncovered the truth and cleared Concubine Xue's name!"

Xue Qingyao also stated her position, "When Concubine Meng slandered Sister Xue, I felt something was amiss and followed her here to see what she was up to. Now that the Emperor has gotten to the bottom of this matter, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief!"

Meng Yishu, "..." They didn't look like this when they offered advice before!

Right now, she was isolated and helpless, and could only kowtow and beg for mercy, "Your Majesty...I was just confused for a moment...Princess Lan and Concubine Xue also...ah!"

How could Shen Ruolan bear it when she saw that Meng Yishu dared to bite her even when she was about to die?

She rushed forward and kicked Meng Yishu in the heart, "Bitch! After wronging Lady Xue, you want to wrong me now? How many heads do you have left to chop off?"

I thought Meng Yishu was so capable, but she even imitated the handwriting wrong. I really misjudged her!

"Your Majesty, please spare me! Please spare me..." Meng Yishu was kicked to the ground, howling even more heart-wrenchingly.

Murong Che waved his hand impatiently, "Drag him away!"

"Yes!"

Two guards each held one of Meng Yishu's arms and dragged her away with expressionless faces.

Murong Che turned his gaze to Shen Ruolan. "Princess Lan, you are not good at judging people. You will be fined three months' salary and confined to your home for ten days to reflect on your mistakes. The other concubines will be fined one month's salary and confined to their homes for three days to reflect on their mistakes."

"Also, any palace servants who broke into Shuiyue Pavilion tonight will be given thirty strokes of the cane as punishment!"

The crowd watching the fun had no idea that they, the small fish in the pond, would be affected and were terrified.

But they didn't dare to complain. They accepted the punishment and left in shame.

When Xue Qingyao left, she turned around and took a deep look at Xue Youli, and she was certain of one thing in her heart -

The woman standing next to Murong Che was not the Xue Youli she knew before!

In the past, Xue Youli didn't know any medical skills and was madly infatuated with Meng Xingzhi. Even if Meng Yishu slandered her, she would never make things difficult for Meng Yishu for Meng Xingzhi's sake.

Xue Youli now looks innocent and kind-hearted on the surface, but in fact she is very scheming and clever.

I want to get to the top, but I'm afraid it won't be as smooth as in my previous life.

And from what happened just now, it can be seen that Murong Che trusts Xue Youli extremely.

She had a premonition that this woman would be the biggest stumbling block in her ascension to the throne.

However, with Murong Che's support, she might not be able to overthrow Xue Youli on her own. Perhaps she would have to borrow the power of that person...

After some noise and commotion, Shuiyuexuan returned to peace.

When Xue Youli returned to the house, he was yawning continuously.

Seeing that she was very sleepy, Murong Che went to bed with her.

Although the kiss was interrupted just now, he was sure that the distance between him and Xue Youli had not changed.

So, what is the trigger point for delaying the distance of eavesdropping?

Murong Che couldn't believe it. He turned his head to look at the sleeping Xue Youli and closed his eyes.

Never mind, I'll try another method later. I'll try a few more times and I'll eventually find the answer.

?

The next day, early in the morning.

In Yongning Palace, Concubine Ning was pruning a spring plum tree.

After listening to the palace maid's story of what happened in Lingyun Palace last night, she couldn't help but pause with the scissors in her hand.

"This newcomer to the palace is truly skilled and daring. She practiced witchcraft in the harem. The Emperor has shown mercy by not implicating her family."

Her personal maid, Lingxiu, lowered her voice a bit, "Your Majesty, I heard that Concubine Meng screamed miserably last night. She died after being beaten with more than sixty boards."

Concubine Ning cut off another branch and asked casually, "The Emperor has been visiting Lingyun Palace frequently lately, but there's been no news from Concubine Li?"

"Have."

Lingxiu nodded and continued, "Concubine Li just sent someone to invite Concubine Xue to her Yongchun Palace for tea."

Concubine Ning laughed immediately, looking like she was watching a play. "I'm telling you, given Concubine Li's personality, how could she allow a newcomer to monopolize the Emperor's presence every day?"

Lingyun Palace, Shuiyue Pavilion.

After Xue Youli finished her breakfast and was about to go back to read medical books, Xiao Kangzi from Yongchun Palace came over.

"Lady Xue, my queen invites you over for tea."

Banxia looked at the handsome young eunuch in front of her and asked cautiously, "Who is your queen?"

"Empress Li." Xiao Kangzi immediately introduced himself.

Upon hearing this, Banxia glared at Xiaokangzi as if facing a great enemy.

Everyone in the palace knew that since the emperor ascended the throne, Concubine Li had been the only one to enjoy his favor.

Now that Xue Youli has won the emperor's favor, is Concubine Li likely to cause trouble?

Xue Youli was very calm. "Banxia, ​​pick out a valuable gift from the storeroom and follow me to meet Concubine Li."

"Yes."

Arriving at Yongchun Palace, Xue Youli saw Concubine Li sitting on the main throne as soon as she stepped into the main hall.

Concubine Li wore an emerald-colored smoke-silk cloud dress, and the colorful gold hairpins on her head made her delicate facial features look gorgeous and noble.

"I pay my respects to Her Majesty Li," Xue Youli said, presenting the gift she had prepared. "Your Majesty has summoned me. I am so excited that I didn't prepare anything in such a hurry. I have prepared this small gift, and I hope Your Majesty will accept it."

"Sister Xue is so polite." Concubine Li curled her red lips and ordered someone to accept the gift box. She smiled and asked the palace maid to serve the tea. "Please sit down. This is the Xinyang Maojian tea that the emperor gave to me. Please try it."

Xue Youli picked up the teacup and saw that the tea in the cup was clear and bright, like amber. When she brought it to her lips, she could smell the refreshing fragrance.

She took a sip and said, "It's fresh, mellow, and has a sweet aftertaste. It's a good tea."

"As long as my sister likes it."

Xue Youli put down the teacup in her hand and turned her gaze back to Concubine Li. "I wonder what the Queen Concubine Li wants to summon me today?"

"It's nothing serious. The Emperor often mentions my sister in front of me, praising her as a wonderful person. I'm sure I like anyone the Emperor likes, so I asked my sister to come over and sit with me, hoping to get closer to her."

This was said in a tactful way, but even Banxia could tell that Concubine Li wanted to be on good terms with her master.

However, before her master entered the palace, Concubine Li was the most favored person in front of the emperor. Now that her master has taken away the emperor's favor from her, she still greets him with a smile. Is she trying to pull her master into her camp?

After all, in order to compete, the women in the harem will form cliques and help each other.
