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

When Yu Zhong left the palace, his steps were heavy.

One son died, another was injured, his illegitimate daughter was gone, and his biological daughter threatened him to "do something big." Even with the emperor's encouragement and the upcoming position of Shangshu, he didn't feel much better.

After returning home, Yu Su came to the house and cried loudly because of Yu Tingjin's death, which made him even more angry. He had Yu Su beaten, tied up and sent back, which was equivalent to house arrest.

"If you don't take care of me anymore, I'll send you back to the countryside to guard the ancestral home!"

He was fed up.

I just feel that life is heavy.

But he dared not disobey the Imperial Noble Consort's orders.

If his second son colluded with the enemy and sent the map, he would be implicated and his future would be ruined if this matter were exposed. He did not dare to threaten Fei Wan, saying that if they were to suffer together, they would suffer together. With Fei Wan's status and favor, it would not be difficult for her to save her life and she would have a chance to make a comeback. But he and the Yu family would be finished.

So he could only grit his teeth and obey.

When I was lying in bed feeling bored, no matter how reluctant I was, I couldn't help but start thinking about how to collect the things Fei Wan asked for without being noticed.

"If only she were truly disfigured and could no longer be favored..."

Yu Zhong would occasionally have this thought.

Now that Fei Wan is down, there's no way to suppress him.

But reason made him stop thinking.

If Fei Wan fell, his political enemies would definitely take the opportunity to pounce on him fiercely and crush him under their feet.

No matter which daughter is favored in the palace, he is no longer a simple clean official. His honor, disgrace, promotion and demotion are all closely tied to his daughters.

Yu Zhong, with his thoughts surging, finally suppressed all his delusions and clearly knew that he had no choice but to listen to Fei Wan and collect those things for her.

But what on earth did she want those for?

Yu Zhong felt like a person in a desperate situation, with an abyss behind him. He could not retreat and could only move forward.

But the only road ahead is pitch black, and may hide dangers more terrifying than the abyss.

……

No matter how miserable and upset Yu Zhong was, Fei Wan told him what to do and, knowing that he would definitely do it, she put him out of her mind.

Since there are spies in the Yu Mansion, there is no need to worry about Yu Zhong doing anything tricky.

She is very busy.

Busy with private planning and maintaining her looks.

Another thing is that when Ma Xiaofeng was following Yu Yongnan and Yu Tingjin, he heard the two spies who looked like businessmen talking about anti-poetry frame-up. They also mentioned the Qu State spies with disdain, saying that the Qu State spies were useless.

So, aren’t the spies from the enemy country that Yu Yongnan colluded with the same group of people?

"My Lady, could it be two different groups? But that doesn't make sense..."

Xiang Yi was also confused. "It's clear that the spies who worked with Madam Yu when she rescued Yu Tingjin from the cold palace were indeed from the Qu Kingdom. We went to great lengths to silence them and prevent them from revealing their collusion with Yu Yongnan when they confessed, so as not to implicate us. And, regarding the fake dragon robe incident, Pan'er's group was also from the Qu Kingdom."

"Don't worry, we'll find the answer if we check carefully."

Fei Wan asked Xiang Yi to give orders, and to be relaxed on the surface but actually strict, and to investigate secretly.

Xiangyi was a little worried: "What if we haven't found it yet and this group of people take action?"

Fei Wan told her not to be anxious, to stay calm and just investigate.

"With the fake dragon robe incident before, anti-poetry is nothing."

A few days later, after the Chinese New Year, the cabinet will resume operations, and a large number of memorials that have accumulated during the Chinese New Year will be sent to the emperor. The emperor is too busy to handle them all and needs her help.

Even if someone framed her, as long as the emperor was inclined to support her, even if he had suspicions, they would quickly dissipate.

That's the way the human heart is.

Always believe what you want to believe and doubt what you have already doubted.

Behind all the complicated reasons, there is only a simple selfish heart.

Xiang Yi sighed, "Spies keep popping up again and again. Every time I think I've eliminated them, why do they keep popping up next time? When will it end?"

"Because, eliminating spies is only treating the symptoms, not the root cause. It's like a rotten fruit, which is always surrounded by flies. If you drive away one group, new ones will come."

"So..." Xiang Yi thought, "We should throw away the bad fruit and replace it with a new one?"

"Almost. New fruit doesn't emit a rotten smell anymore. If we cover it with a layer of gauze, we can truly prevent flies and insects from getting on it."

Xiangyi nodded vigorously.

The Queen has been working hard to make the fruit look new and fresh!

She feels very happy to be able to work hard with the Empress, and is full of energy no matter how busy she is every day.

Who among those who come from a poor family doesn’t want the world to be peaceful, for everyone to live and work in peace and not be oppressed?

"Don't tire yourself out, madam. Take care of your body and appearance first."

Xiangyi happily helped Feiwan serve soup and water, and took good care of her.

As long as the Empress remains beautiful and sits firmly on the position of Imperial Noble Consort, she can do more of what she wants.

The imperial physician said that as long as there is no fever in the first three days, the toxins in the thunder fire vine are nothing to worry about, and the patient's appearance will be restored with slow recuperation.

Xiangyi and her men took good care of Feiwan, and she spent two or three days safely.

That night, she made the bed early and advised Fei Wan to go to bed early.

"After tonight, the three days will be completely over, and we won't have to worry anymore. Your Majesty, please get some sleep. Tomorrow morning, I'll ask the imperial physician to come back and take your pulse carefully to see if a change in the prescription is necessary."

"It's only the first watch, how can I sleep so early?" Fei Wan laughed.

"Then you can just stay in bed. Anyway, let's close the door early so that everyone can be at ease."

"You've even locked the door. Are you afraid I might sleepwalk and run away?"

A few people were chatting and laughing when suddenly someone came from Concubine Shun's side.

She hurriedly reported, "His Majesty has suddenly developed a high fever, and all the ladies in the palace are going there. Our lady came to ask the Imperial Noble Consort if she would like to go to Chenqian Palace with her."

I don't have a fever, but the emperor does? Fei Wan asked if the imperial physician had been called in and what the cause of the fever was.

The palace maid shook her head. "I don't know the specifics yet, but I heard it wasn't good. Tonight, Consort De was in the Imperial Court. Seeing that His Majesty looked unwell, she called the Imperial Physician and informed the Empress."

"I understand. Let your queen go first. I'll be there later."

After the palace maid left, Fei Wan immediately sent someone to the imperial court to secretly inquire about the situation.

Xiao Linzi was familiar with the connections in the imperial court and soon found out that the emperor was fine all day and even asked Concubine De to sing a play to entertain him after dinner. He was in a good mood, but for some reason, he suddenly developed a fever, and the temperature seemed to be quite high, and he could not speak clearly.

A quarter of an hour ago, he fainted.

There are now three or four imperial doctors serving in front of him, each with his own opinion, and there is no final conclusion.

Fei Wan thought for a moment and decided to go and take a look.

So she changed her clothes, wrapped her face with a scarf, and took a sedan chair to go before the emperor.

When they arrived at Chenqian Palace, Concubine De, Concubine Shun, and Concubine Hui were all there, and even Concubine Heqing had come. Zhishu and Feiwan arrived shortly after.

But Queen Yan had not come yet.

"Where is the Queen?" Fei Wan asked Concubine Shun.
