The Rebirth of Li Fei: The Strongest Palace Fighting System

I can understand Zhen Huan's sadness. She wanted to win the emperor's favor, but she didn't expect that because of a piece of clothing, she would anger him, lose the chance to be canonized, and be confined to the Suiyu Pavilion.

But this is a great opportunity for me.

I turned to look at Xiaotao and asked:

"Zhen Huan is pregnant now, and we also have a mission from the Oleander System to protect Zhen Huan's baby. So, the Emperor didn't give Zhen Huan the promised share this time like he did last time, right?"

"Not this time, Your Majesty. This time is different from the last time. The Emperor is mindful of the dragon fetus in Zhen Huan's belly, and there are many concubines living in Sui Yuxuan now, not just Zhen Huan, so there is no shortage of food and clothing. However, they are all under house arrest and cannot move around freely."

At this moment, Baoque pushed the door open and walked in, bowing and reporting:

"Your Majesty, Consort Hui requests an audience."

I was slightly startled, then nodded:

"Invite her in."

Shen Meizhuang's visit at this time must be due to Zhen Huan's matter.

......

Shen Meizhuang frowned:

"The Emperor was furious in the Yangxin Palace and refused to see anyone. I went to ask the Empress Dowager, but Aunt Zhuxi made up an excuse, saying she had retired and didn't want to see me. I hurried to ask the Empress again, but Aunt Randong also said the Empress had a headache and couldn't see anyone. Everyone knew the truth; they were just making up excuses."

I sighed softly and said:

"There are only three places in the palace where people can be masters. Now they have all hit a wall. What should we do?"

"Yes, we have to think of a solution quickly. Huan'er is pregnant now, and she has suffered such a misfortune. I'm really worried that she won't be able to bear it."

I narrowed my eyes slightly and asked tentatively:

"Sister Mei, do you think this incident was caused by God or man?"

Shen Meizhuang was stunned when she heard this, and after thinking for a moment, she said:

"I heard that the Emperor, in a fit of rage, punished Jiang Zhongmin from the Imperial Household Department, saying that the Imperial Household Department had made a mistake with the clothing. But how could the Imperial Household Department make a mistake with such a serious matter? This matter is indeed very strange."

I laughed inwardly. After Jiang Zhongmin was dismissed, my accomplice Liang Duorui had already succeeded him smoothly.

It’s a pity that I can’t do Liang Duorui a favor this time, otherwise my relationship index with him would have increased a lot.

However, when I thought about what happened to Zhen Huan this time, I felt an inexplicable sense of pleasure in my heart.

I said slowly:

"Sister Mei, I think this may not be a disaster for Sister Wan, but a blessing instead."

Upon hearing this, Shen Meizhuang showed a puzzled expression on her face and asked:

"What do you mean? Zhen Huan is now under house arrest and has lost the chance to be canonized. How can she talk about good fortune?"

"Sister Mei, think about it. Although Zhen Huan has suffered some injustice in this incident, the Emperor has only confined her to her house because of the dragon fetus in her womb. In the future, when she gives birth to an imperial heir, she will be honored as a mother by her son. Do you still worry that she won't have a chance to rise to prominence?"

After hearing what I said, Shen Meizhuang's frown gradually relaxed and her expression eased a little.

After thinking for a moment, she slowly said:

"You're right. Whether it's Concubine Hua or the Queen, or even the other concubines who harbor dissatisfaction with Zhen Huan, they could all be the masterminds behind this sudden disaster. Zhen Huan is favored and pregnant, and has long been the target of public criticism in the palace. I wonder how many people are staring at her belly, wanting to secretly attack her."

"And no one is allowed out of the Broken Jade Pavilion. But if you think about it carefully, this might be a safety measure. Dangers are lurking everywhere in this deep palace, and Zhen Huan is now pregnant with the Dragon Child, so she must be even more cautious. While being confined to the Broken Jade Pavilion restricts her freedom, it also provides her with a relatively safe environment, allowing her to rest assured and nurture her pregnancy."

Shen Meizhuang nodded slightly after hearing this. Her expression also became more determined:

"You're right. Now is not the time to beg anyone for help. Instead, let Huan'er take good care of her pregnancy in Suiyuxuan and give birth to a prince, waiting for the future. We are going to find out who is behind this."

......

Within these palace walls, the world is truly unpredictable, with mixed feelings of sorrow and joy.

When Zhen Huan was under house arrest, the Emperor was so indifferent to her, as if nothing about her mattered anymore. On the other hand, Concubine Hua was in high spirits, enjoying constant favors. All this was simply because Nian Gengyao had made another great military achievement in the court.

Nian Gengyao became more and more arrogant because of his achievements and acted tyrannically in the capital. However, the emperor seemed to turn a blind eye to this and allowed him to do whatever he wanted.

He actually dared to break the palace rules and secretly asked the palace physician to diagnose his wife. It happened that the queen had a headache and there was no palace physician available to take the job. However, the emperor not only did not blame him, but praised him highly. It was really chilling.

What's worse, the emperor actually intends to promote Hua Fei again, which is really unexpected.

Hua Fei was extremely self-righteous. She even thought that the Emperor wanted to make her a Royal Noble Consort. So when she paid her respects to the Empress every day, she would show off and act very powerful in front of the Empress.

"Xiao Tao, look at this palace. There's no such thing as affection. It's just profit first."

"But your Majesty, please don't forget that year, Shilan thought she was promoted to Imperial Noble Consort, but we know that it was only the position of Noble Consort. She was originally demoted from Noble Consort to Consort, which was considered the position of 'Second Noble Consort', making room for us. Now it has been restored. I'm afraid our path to promotion will not be so smooth..."

"Yes, Xiaotao is right. My favor index has reached 93% of the concubine position. I was about to be promoted, but Cheng Yaojin suddenly appeared in the middle of the road."

Xiao Tao thought about it and comforted me:

"However, if you reach 100% but don't get promoted, you can exchange it for the right to demote someone else, or even ban them."

"title?"

I'm a little unhappy:

"I don't want any title. I don't like the title of Li Fei. I want the title of Imperial Concubine, not Li Fei!"

"Then...what does your Majesty plan to do?"

"Get her off the horse!"

......

I gently stroked my bulging belly, a hint of worry in my eyes, and whispered to Xiaotao:

"This palace and Zhen Huan are already over three months pregnant, and Concubine Fucha is six months pregnant. Even if I am temporarily deprived of the Emperor's favor due to my pregnancy, after Concubine Fucha gives birth, the tasks assigned by the Oleander System will be completed, and the favor index will be 100%. If there is no opportunity for promotion, this palace may end up with a title that will be ridiculed by others."

Xiao Tao frowned slightly when she heard this. Her bright eyes turned and she said:

"That fatal blow to Concubine Hua last time was only possible thanks to Cao Qinmo's exposure of her personal relationship with the ministers. It was just a pity that Chun'er was innocently implicated. However, it's a coincidence that because of the 'Queen Chunyuan's old clothes' incident designed by the Empress, Chun'er is now confined to the Suiyu Pavilion, which inadvertently saved her life."
