The queen is sober in the world, and she is winning every step of the palace fight.

Fei Wan quietly observed the emperor's expression for the first time.

Xiao Yu's young and handsome face showed a look of understanding in a moment, mixed with cautious doubts.

It seemed that he was not sure whether the Concubine's action was a furious pursuit based on solid evidence or a bluff to divert the blame.

Concubine Xian had appointed Changle Palace to investigate the suspect responsible for Zhishu's bleeding, claiming to be purging her own harem and apprehending those found guilty. She kept this a secret from the harem, but not from the emperor. The emperor had assigned members of the Palace Administration Department to the entire investigation, and they reported daily to him on their progress.

All of this was privately informed to Fei Wan by Zhishu who was in Changle Palace.

While the virtuous concubine was secretly investigating, she seemed to be concealing the true findings and perfunctorily appeasing the Palace Administration Office. Zhishu also felt this.

Therefore, when Concubine Xian suddenly lost her temper and tied up the Queen, Fei Wan, like the Emperor, was not quite sure what Concubine Xian had found out.

"Your Majesty! Please save the Empress! She is still ill, and if she were to suffer such humiliation, I'm afraid her health would be in jeopardy! Moreover, she is the principal wife. How could the virtuous concubine commit such an act as a concubine, Your Majesty!"

Zheng Zhuyi's shout was extremely loud.

The sound approached the Lincui Palace.

Most people who play the pipa learn to sing and have very good voices.

The emperor's brows twitched impatiently.

Deep voice: "Let her in."

Concubine Kang had just stood at the door and told the emperor what he meant. She wanted to persuade Zheng Zhuyi not to offend the emperor, but Zheng Zhuyi had already rushed in past her.

It almost knocked Concubine Kang over.

"Your Majesty, the virtuous concubine has kidnapped the queen, and the palace servants of Fengyi Palace are unable to stop her. She has so many people and so powerful that it seems like she is about to rebel! I have been in the palace for these days and thought that there are rules everywhere, but it turns out that this is such a place of chaos! Your Majesty, I just want to ask you one thing: if a country can be treated like this, then one day, will the ruler of a country also be in danger? Are the power of the virtuous concubine and the relatives of the Zhenguogong really that formidable?"

Zheng Zhuyi didn't even bother to show courtesy, and rushed to the emperor and questioned him loudly.

Outraged.

There seemed to be flames burning in his wide eyes.

Looking at the delicious food and wine on the table and the concubines sitting around, she just sneered.

"Your Majesty is still here enjoying the feast, but you don't know that someone is already trying to step on your head!"

Turning around, she saw the palace maids in the hall, and with red eyes, she choked up and said, "The drums are beating and the earth is shaking, and there are still singing and dancing in front of the palace..."

"Zheng Guipin, listen to what you're saying!" Concubine Kang was the first to refute her, angrily saying, "This is clearly an opera, how can it be called song and dance? Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!"

The emperor's face turned pale after being yelled at by Zheng Zhuyi.

As soon as Concubine Kang opened her mouth, all his anger was released.

The corners of his eyebrows twitched, and he said patiently: "Concubine Kang, please step back."

Concubine Kang retreated to the side feeling aggrieved and glared at Zheng Zhuyi.

The emperor looked at Zheng Zhuyi with a sullen face.

"We'll tell you what the virtuous concubine did later. If you refuse to answer honestly, kneel outside for two hours!"

"His Majesty?!"

Zheng Zhuyi stared at the emperor, and in an instant, her bright eyes were covered with a layer of mist and filled with tears.

Biting her lip, she bowed sadly and angrily.

"Greetings to His Majesty, and to all the ladies."

Her long eyelashes, tinted with gold, shimmered with brilliance, bright and alluring. As she lowered her head, several large tears rolled down her cheeks. Even if she was impertinent and rude, her beauty still moved her.

"If I follow the rules and tell you the truth, Your Majesty will be able to save the Queen?"

She straightened her back, her face full of unconvinced, yet aggrieved submission. The young girl's impulsive love and hate, pure as crystal, was very touching.

Her makeup and clothes were obviously carefully matched.

It may look like a casual outfit, but every detail has been carefully thought out. Women can spot it at a glance, but men have a hard time telling the difference.

The incident happened suddenly today. Zheng Zhuyi lives in seclusion in Yanming Palace, which is some distance away from Fengyi Palace. It is impossible for her to dress up carefully and come to see the emperor after the incident.

Obviously, she always dressed herself up, waiting for the opportunity to show herself in front of the emperor.

Concubine Shun spoke softly, "Zheng Guipin, please don't push His Majesty. Calm down first and explain the situation in detail. You've been running all the way here breathlessly, with the hem of your skirt all tangled up. You look so pitiful."

Everyone went to look at the jade pendant on Zheng Zhuyi's skirt.

Indeed, the two things are entangled and knotted together.

However, although the necklaces were all tangled, the hairpins on her head were intact and not tilted. Her hair was shiny and neatly combed, and the tassels on the necklace on her chest were also neatly arranged.

Plus, her eyelashes are painted with gold powder, which is so delicate.

Many people understood it at once.

I knew that she had checked and tidied her makeup before breaking into the palace.

The hem of her skirt was tangled, probably because she bumped into Concubine Kang when she stepped into the hall just now.

A person who is so focused on redressing his elder sister, still has the mind to tidy himself up before breaking in?

The emperor also understood.

His expression, which had softened due to the beautiful Zheng Zhuyi's tears, became stern again: "Speak carefully, or you will kneel down."

Zheng Zhuyi lowered her head.

When his eyes swept over Concubine Shun, there was a hint of hostility.

Concubine Shun pretended not to know, looked at her with concern, and listened to her talk in detail.

Fei Wan listened and glanced at Yu Sujin.

——Do you understand?

——I understand! Big sister!

The two sisters exchanged silent glances.

Yu Sujin increasingly felt that the waters of the palace were unfathomable.

Each and every one of them is easy to get along with.

Even though Concubine Lian Shun looks like a good and soft persimmon, she actually has a knife hidden inside. If you are not careful, she will stab you.

Compared with this, the conflict in the Yu Mansion is nothing.

However, once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. She can't get out anyway. Yu Sujin suddenly feels ambitious and wants to show her talent in the palace, follow in her elder sister's footsteps, and become a woman many times more powerful than her own aunt!

"Miss Zheng Si, we're both newcomers to the palace. Although you're a little prettier than me, and although you've been supported by the Empress Dowager..."

Yu Sujin looked at Zheng Zhuyi quietly, feeling competitive in her heart.

Let’s see who among us can successfully serve His Majesty in bed first and catch His Majesty’s eye!

"Your Majesty, please save the Empress. If you don't order the Concubine to stop, I'm afraid she'll already be kneeling in Chenqian Palace. Forcing a concubine to kneel in the palace is unheard of in history. Your Majesty, please correct the mistake!"

After Zheng Zhuyi explained the situation, she pleaded again.

It turned out that the virtuous concubine led people to break into Fengyi Palace, tied up the queen without any explanation, and accused her of plotting to murder the royal heir and damaging the foundation of Daliang. She was taken to the emperor's front and made to kneel down as punishment.

During the process, a palace maid reported that the emperor was not in Chenqian Palace, but had gone to Empress Kang's Lincui Palace.

The virtuous concubine then threatened, "Then let Zheng kneel in the Chenqian Palace and wait until His Majesty returns! Given the sins she has committed, she deserves to kneel for days and nights!"

When Zheng Zhuyi rushed over from Yanming Palace after hearing the news, she only saw her elder sister being dragged away.

"Your Majesty, please go quickly!" Zheng Zhuyi burst into tears again.

Concubine Kang murmured unhappily, "It's such a good play... I can't listen to it again."
