The Rebirth of Li Fei: The Strongest Palace Fighting System

I told Baoge to prepare tea and snacks, and then asked everyone to leave. Only my mother, Xiaotao and I were left here.

I glanced around quietly, and after confirming that no one was around, an indescribable emotion welled up in my heart. I murmured softly:

"Mother! Accept your daughter's greetings!"

Before I finished speaking, I was ready to bend down deeply and pay my respects to my mother.

Mother, the only and best person to me in this world, is now back with me, which fills my heart with incomparable joy and gratitude.

My eyes couldn't help but become moist. They were tears of happiness, the sweetness and warmth of reunion after a long separation.

At this time, Xiao Tao, a clever ghost, was keeping an eye on all directions and listening carefully. Seeing this, she hurried forward and supported me together with her mother. Her voice was filled with anxiety and dissuasion:

"Your Highness, you absolutely cannot do this! You are now the Empress of the Palace, of unparalleled dignity. If others saw you like this, who knows what rumors would spread. This would be bad for you and your family."

Mother also quickly agreed:

"Yes, my lady, Xiao Tao is right. In the palace, you are the high and mighty lady, and I am just an ordinary embroiderer. No one else knows our relationship. How can I accept such a generous gift from you? I just hope that you can take good care of yourself in the palace and be safe and sound."

I looked up at them, my eyes moistened even more:

"Mother, Xiaotao, I know you are doing this for my own good. There is no one here, so please call me Rong'er, okay?"

"Okay, Rong'er."

Xiao Tao lightly brought me an exquisite stool and carefully covered it with a layer of soft goose down cushions. With a caring smile on her face, she whispered softly:

"My Lady, you are pregnant now. You must take good care of yourself. Sit down and rest. Remember, don't get too excited, otherwise it will hurt our baby."

I looked at Xiaotao gratefully, a warm feeling surged in my heart. I nodded gently, then slowly sat down.

My mother also came over. She gently stroked my belly, her eyes full of love and expectation, and whispered softly:

"Rong'er, the child must be very healthy in your belly. You should eat more and make him fat."

I smiled and replied to my mother:

"Yes, mother, I understand. I will take good care of myself and let our child grow up healthy and happy."

Suddenly, a doubt arose in my heart, and I asked curiously:

"Mother, how can you see Xiao Tao? No one else seems to be able to see her. What's going on?"

Mother smiled slightly, a mysterious light flashed in her eyes, and she said softly:

"Oh, about this... Actually, mother came back through a special channel, which is what we call the Oleander System. So, of course she can see our lovely Xiaotao."

Xiao Tao laughed at the side, with a smug look on her face, and rushed to say:

"Yes, my lady! Have you forgotten how we met? My lady went through so many twists and turns to get back here! So, of course she knows the secret!"

I suddenly understood. Looking at my mother and Xiaotao, I felt an inexplicable emotion in my heart. With them by my side, I felt stronger and braver.

Mother continued:

"Rong'er, you're pregnant and in charge of the Embroidery Courtyard. The burden on you is not light. You must be careful in everything and don't overwork yourself. Although there are many affairs in the palace, your health and the child are the most important. If you need anything, please tell me immediately. Mother will always be here to support you."

Xiao Tao's expression became extremely serious. She lowered her voice and said to her mother:

"Madam, you don't know that our queen is trying not to return to the Yanxi Palace if she can! It's all because of Jianqiu who lives in the Yanxi Palace. She carries something as poisonous as musk, and the queen is afraid that if something goes wrong, it will harm the fetus in her belly!"

After saying that, Xiaotao realized that she might have gone a little too far, and she looked at me nervously, afraid that I would blame her for making my mother worry.

I shook my head gently, indicating that Xiaotao didn't need to blame herself too much, but at the same time I signaled her with my eyes to shut up and not continue this topic.

Xiao Tao understood what he meant and shut her mouth awkwardly, but she could not hide the worry on her face.

When my mother heard what we said, her brows furrowed slightly, and a hint of worry appeared in her eyes.

She said softly:

"Rong'er, no one seems to be surprised by your rebirth in the Embroidery Courtyard, as if you were always meant to be here. This makes me feel a little uneasy."

Seeing this, Xiao Tao quickly interrupted and said:

"Madam, this is all because of the magical effect of the resurrection pill! It can make people appear anywhere silently, just like the queen is now, so no one thinks it's strange."

My mother nodded slightly when she heard this, but the worry on her face did not lessen. She turned to look at me, her eyes full of concern:

"But Rong'er, I'm the only one who knows that I'm unfamiliar with everything in this palace. The Jianqiu you just mentioned... who exactly is she? Why does she make you so wary?"

I sighed, knowing that hiding it any longer would be useless at this point.

So, I slowly opened my mouth and told my mother everything about Jianqiu's identity and background:

"Jianqiu was recently promoted to the rank of Consort, and she currently resides in my Yanxi Palace. However, before becoming Consort, she was the Queen's personal maid, arguably one of her most trusted confidants. She's a ruthless and scheming woman, and I have to be wary of her."

After hearing what I said, my mother's face became even more serious. She was silent for a while, as if she was thinking about something.

Then she looked up at me, her eyes full of determination and concern:

"Rong'er, you must be extremely careful in the palace. Since Jianqiu was once close to the Queen, she likely has even greater power behind her. You must think twice before you act, and never act rashly. Remember, no matter what difficulties or challenges you encounter, you must remain calm and rational. Only in this way can you protect yourself and your unborn child."

I nodded, a warm feeling welling up in my heart. With my mother by my side, I felt stronger and braver.

Looking at my mother's anxious and concerned expression, I couldn't help but feel a warmth in my heart, but also a hint of helplessness.

I sighed softly, then turned to Xiaotao and said:

"Xiao Tao, take out the flower shadow axis. Let's go and see what this Jian Qiu is all about with mother."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Tao nodded immediately and took out the colorful flower scroll from her sleeve.

I saw Xiaotao gently unfold the flower shadow axis, and a soft and mysterious light suddenly flashed inside, and then a series of vivid pictures slowly unfolded in front of the three of us.
