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

Xiao Linzi shook his head, "Not at the moment. If you need it, I'll think of a way."

Xiangyi supported Xiaolinzi's idea.

If you think that the young lady has been plotted against by the queen, you should retaliate and kill the queen as well.

There was a murderous look in her eyes, and she was about to speak.

Fei Wan raised her hand to stop him.

Tell Xiao Linzi: "Don't act rashly. Just wait for me to take you from the Imperial Court."

Xiao Linzi had done enough to expose the concubines associated with the Yuan family. If he did anything more, he might not be safe, and if the emperor discovered Guanlan Court's actions, it would be disastrous.

Moreover, given Fei Wan's current status, it is not easy to overthrow the queen.

One wrong move could lead to the complete loss of the whole game. She would not do something as foolish as an ant trying to shake a tree.

Fei Wan saw the murderous intent in Xiang Yi's eyes, which was exactly why Fei Wan transferred Xiang Yi to her side.

In her previous life in Xinzheku, Xiangyi was the one who pleased the leading aunt the most and was very clever, so the work she did was always the easiest among her classmates.

There are many people in the palace who are good at pleasing their superiors. The only difference between Xiangyi and them is that she has an extremely strong desire to repay her superiors.

I will repay kindness and I will repay hatred without any ambiguity.

In her previous life, Fei Wan had helped her conceal her illness and even finished two days of work for her. After she recovered from her illness, she insisted on doing Fei Wan's hard labor for half a month without any explanation, and she also refused to allow the palace maids in her class to bully Fei Wan again.

In the end, her death was for revenge.

While working, she accidentally bumped into a palace concubine and was punished with ten lashes. She was forced to kneel on the long street all night in winter.

With his legs broken, wounded, and running a high fever, he was moved to a nursing home to wait for death.

She held on for several days, and finally realized that she could not survive. She did not die quietly, but dragged her extremely weak body, ambushed the palace concubine on the road she had to pass, and killed her with a chopstick.

The concubine had chopsticks stuck in her neck, her face full of disbelief, and she soon died of suffocation.

Xiangyi was beaten to death on the spot, but when she died, there was a mocking smile on her face.

Before that, Fei Wan had secretly gone to the nursing home to see her.

Her voice was hoarse as she stared blankly at the blackened beams of the dilapidated house in the nursing home.

She said, "We are worthless and have never had a good life. There are so many delicious foods in the imperial kitchen, but I have never tasted any of them. Those masters, on the other hand, are tired of eating fat chickens and big ducks all day long. They only take a few bites of the food on the table and throw it away at any time. Ha... I really can't accept it. Why? Why are we born to suffer and be bullied..."

Later, Fei Wan risked her life and stole two edible dishes from the slop bucket in the imperial kitchen and secretly sent them to her.

But halfway through, he saw her being beaten to death.

When she died, her head was facing Fei Wan, and she saw the leftovers in Fei Wan's hand.

The lips moved.

That lip shape might be saying thank you.

Fei Wan was almost scared to death.

At that time, I couldn't understand why she had the courage to assassinate her master.

It must be very painful to be beaten to death by someone.

Fei Wan regretted not staying with her the whole time. Why did she go and steal the leftovers? If she had kept an eye on her and prevented her from taking risks, she wouldn't have been so miserable.

Fei Wan cried secretly many times later.

I cried for Xiangyi’s tragic death, and also for myself who died in the same miserable state.

I was really weak at that time.

Later, she gradually understood Xiangyi's courage.

When people are pushed to a certain point and suddenly wake up, they would rather die standing than live on their knees. Even if they die, they will drag others down with them.

Then your life will not be in vain!

If Fei Wan encountered that kind of situation again in this life, she would never stand there stupidly with the leftovers in her hand, and she would not persuade Xiang Yi not to take risks in advance.

She will follow Xiangyi to assassinate!

Oh, but she didn't intend to put herself and Xiangyi in such a weak position in this life.

The anger of an ordinary man will cause blood to splatter within five steps; the anger of the emperor will cause blood to flow like a river.

What good can a powerless person at the bottom do? Of course, they still have to climb up, gain higher power, and then severely punish their enemies!

After Xiao Linzi left, Fei Wan had a private conversation with Dong Bao.

"I've sent people to inquire about your relatives back home. Your parents and siblings are all gone. You have a younger brother, who you say is the sixth child, who returned to the village last year after many twists and turns. He's currently living with an elderly member of the clan who has also lost a family member, and they're dependent on each other. This is a letter he dictated, written on his behalf."

Dongbao's body trembled.

His originally expressionless face was now filled with excitement.

My hands were shaking when I took the letter.

He read it again and again, held the letter against his chest, and tears streamed down his face.

His hometown was in the south of the Yangtze River, a place prone to flooding every few years. When he was ten years old, a flood swept away the entire village. The waters refused to recede, and the survivors fled to other places, unable to survive. To save their lives, his parents sold him and his siblings to local families, some as foster children and some as slaves.

He changed two masters and was finally sold into the palace to be a eunuch.

I also asked people to inquire about the whereabouts of my relatives in my hometown, but there was no news.

Unexpectedly, not long after he came to Lady Zhao's side, the Lady had already found out about his sixth brother for him!

"My young master... I can't read. Can you... can you help me read? I deserve to die!"

Dongbao held the letter and cried for a while before he controlled his emotions and spoke.

Xiangyi felt sorry for him and laughed at him: "You can't read. You kept holding up the letter and reading it. I thought you had finished reading it!"

Dongbao wiped away his tears embarrassedly.

"Because I miss my sixth brother so much..."

When they separated, his sixth brother was only four years old. He didn’t even know what he looked like now!

Xiangyi took the letter and handed it to Feiwan.

Smiling, she pleaded for mercy: "I would like to trouble you to read it to him once. I am illiterate, otherwise I would never dare to ask you to do it for me."

Fei Wan read the letter slowly.

Dongbao cried as he listened.

In the end, Xiangyi was made to cry by him.

"That's right, he's my sixth brother. What he said was all about his childhood. Please forgive me for making you laugh..."

Dongbao took the letter again, folded it carefully, and hid it solemnly in his arms.

He kowtowed three times to Fei Wan.

"My lord, you are so kind. I have no way of repaying you. From now on, this life belongs to you."

Fei Wan asked him to get up.

"Don't sacrifice your life so easily. Now that you have found your brother, you must cherish your life and take care of your brother.

To be honest, I am looking for relatives for you to make you more loyal, but the most important thing is that I want everyone around me to live a good life.

A good life does not only mean eating well and dressing well, but also means having peace of mind, no worries, and being able to move forward with all your heart.

If you have any difficulties in the future, just tell me. Xiangyi, you too."

"Slave understands!"

"My slave understands!"

The two saluted again.

Fei Wan successfully completed her mission of winning people’s hearts today.

She washed and dressed comfortably, changed into her pajamas and lay down to sleep.

Get enough rest so that you can go to see the Queen tomorrow.

Although the emperor said that there was no need to visit the empress every morning and evening, she was a kind person and of course she had to go to visit the empress.
