The Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Ling Rong

That evening, Jianqiu came over in person and said, "The Empress went in person yesterday to plead for mercy, and the Emperor gave her face, and Lord An has been acquitted."

"I heard that Concubine Wan also went to the Emperor to plead for mercy, and Concubine Shen also wrote a letter, asking Lord Shen to take good care of Lord An."

"The two young ladies and Noble Lady An are as close as sisters. It's really enviable."

"Sister Wan is really good to me, but Sister Mei..." I pretended to be hesitant to speak.

"Who wouldn't do a favor that goes with the flow?"

Seeing that he had achieved his goal, Jianqiu said goodbye and left.

"Master An, get up."

It was just daybreak, and the jailers were gathered at the cell door, chattering away, as lively as an early morning market.

"I never thought that after entering here, there would be a way out."

"Who says it's not true? Look at this guy. He looks ordinary. They usually deal with him. No matter if he is guilty or not."

"If you don't have good connections and spend all your money, who can get out of here?"

"Don't talk nonsense! The higher-ups have personally issued an order to release him without charge and reinstate him."

"I heard that there is a noble person in the palace who is helping us. Let's send him away quickly and don't cause any trouble."

"Yes, yes, yes, hurry up and let him go."

Everyone was talking about it...

An Bihuai was confused. When he opened his eyes, he saw a circle of people surrounding him.

He was immediately frightened, thinking that he was being sent to death. He was so frightened that his face turned pale and he could not speak for a while.

"Master An, please come in! The higher-ups have given the order, you can leave now."

"What? I can leave? Really?" An Bihuai was a little excited for a moment, and almost couldn't stand still, staggering.

The leading jailer was quick-witted and grabbed him and helped him out the door.

"Master An, you have a noble person to help you. I heard that you have someone you know in the palace who is very well-known."

"This? How could I know any noble person in the palace? A noble person, could it be...? Is it Rong'er?"

An Bihuai was not sure for a moment, but apart from Rong'er, there would be no other person, it must be so.

An Bihuai seemed to have made up his mind in an instant and left step by step.

Because of this matter, Concubine Hua got angry again, and the emperor had a headache every day. How to calm Concubine Hua's emotions?

Concubine Hua was in a bad mood and needed to vent her anger on someone. I had Juqing pass the message to Sister Mei early on, just in case something unexpected happened.

On this day, everyone seemed to have gathered at Sister Mei's place without any prior arrangement and stayed there for a long time.

Even Concubine Hua came over and invited the emperor to have a midnight snack. The emperor had no choice but to agree.

As soon as they walked out of the door, they saw a figure sneaking around, holding something and running over. Everyone saw it, and the emperor immediately asked Su Peisheng to bring the person over.

The palace maid was holding a bundle in her arms. When she looked up, it was Fuling.

"Who are you? Are you from Concubine Shen's palace?" The queen asked first.

"He's acting so sneaky. Maybe he stole something from Concubine Shen's palace and is afraid of being discovered." Concubine Cao said at the right time.

In this way, everyone's attention was focused on the bag.

Su Peisheng took the bundle and opened it. It was full of blood-stained clothes and no valuables.

Xin Changzai immediately asked with concern, "Did Concubine Shen have her period?"

Sister Mei took a look and found that it was indeed Poria cocos.

She immediately denied it: "Your Majesty, this is not mine. This maid is indeed a member of my palace, but I don't know why she said that."

"My lady, I destroyed the evidence for you. How can you say you didn't know?" Fuling looked very anxious.

"Your Majesty, the young lady is not pregnant at all. These blood-stained clothes are the evidence."

"Caiyue handed it to me personally and asked me to destroy it immediately."

Jingpin also spoke up at this time: "Fuling's words are a bit illogical. If this was Concubine Shen's underwear, if it got red, Caiyue would have dealt with it quietly."

"It should have been kept secret, so why did I give it to you? You were sneaking around like that, and we all saw it."

"I am guilty. These clothes belong to me. Because the young lady is pregnant, I feel it is taboo. I was afraid that the young lady would feel uncomfortable seeing them, so I asked the new arrival Fuling to put them in my room first."

"I didn't know how Fuling dared to frame the young lady. It was my fault. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Caiyue gave a brief account of the situation, and now everyone understood.

"A mere palace maid actually dared to frame her master. The emperor must punish her." Concubine Xin couldn't stand it any longer.

There was already suspicion in the emperor's eyes. Su Peisheng, ask the imperial physician to come and take a look.

"Eunuch Su, please call Dr. Liu, the doctor who always helps me with my pregnancy. I'm just wondering if he's on duty tonight."

"My lady, Doctor Liu is not on duty tonight," Su Peisheng replied.

"Same, both are imperial physicians." The emperor was dignified without being angry.

After a while, Jiang Cheng arrived.

After taking the pulse, Jiang Cheng pretended to be hesitant and could not tell the result.

The emperor was furious: "You are a royal physician, and you can't even take a pulse?"

Jiang Cheng pretended to be forced to do so: "Your Majesty, judging from the pulse, the young lady is not pregnant at all."

"A few days ago, the young lady asked me for a prescription to delay her period. I didn't dare to deceive the emperor. But the young lady coerced me with threats and inducements, so I had no choice but to comply."

"How dare you!" The emperor slammed the table.

There was a sudden silence and no one dared to speak.

"Mrs. Shen, what's your explanation?"

Seeing that Meizhuang was still wearing the hairpin given by the empress dowager, he pulled it off and threw it to the ground.

"Your Majesty, I am innocent!" Sister Mei was also frightened by the emperor's sudden behavior.

"It turns out that Concubine Shen is not pregnant with an heir. Daring to deceive the Emperor is a capital crime. How come Sister Shen doesn't know?"

Concubine Hua had waited for this moment with great difficulty and spoke with great interest.

"Your Majesty, I'm sure Concubine Shen didn't mean it. Please don't be angry and listen to Concubine Shen's explanation."

On the surface, these words were spoken on behalf of her sister, but they actually confirmed her guilt. Cao Qinmo was truly meticulous.

"emperor……"

Just as Sister Wan was about to speak, the emperor's eyes turned cold.

"Anyone who dares to plead for the Shen family will be guilty of the same crime."

"Noble Lady Shen's words and deeds are inconsistent. She is guilty of deceiving the emperor and is demoted to a concubine. She is imprisoned in Xianyue Pavilion and no one is allowed to visit her." After these words were spoken, who dared to speak again?

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Please listen to what I have to say. I am willing to share the same crime as my sister." I took a step forward and knelt down.

When the emperor saw that it was me, he was a little surprised.

I guess he didn't expect that with my personality, I would dare to stand up and speak for Mei Zhuang at this time.

"Then tell me." The emperor had no expression at this time, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"I just feel something is strange. The palace maid just now clearly did it on purpose for us to see. Besides, the entire Imperial Hospital is not just populated by Imperial Physician Jiang. I'm afraid there might be some misunderstanding that is hard to explain."
