The Rebirth of Li Fei: The Strongest Palace Fighting System

Chapter 220 Chapter 22 Helping Shen Meizhuang and Wen Shichu

Cao Qinmo had a half-smile on his face, and his tone was a bit playful:

"Sister Noble Concubine Xi, wait a minute. We sisters all know that nails dyed with alum and stamens are incredibly beautiful. Look at your scallion-like fingers. If they get wet, even if today's incident is cleared up, I'm afraid it will only lead to unnecessary rumors about you."

Upon hearing this, the Emperor's gaze shifted between Zhen Huan and Cao Qinmo, and he finally nodded.

"What Xiangpin said is absolutely right. We must make sure that today's matter is done perfectly to avoid any further disturbances. Su Peisheng, you will do it yourself."

"Yes, I obey your order."

Faced with the sudden change, Zhen Huan's face turned pale in an instant, but she still forced herself to remain calm, with an unyielding light flashing in her eyes.

After Su Peisheng brought a bowl of clean water, the emperor pricked his finger and dripped the water in. Hongyan also pricked his finger again and had the water dripped in.

Sure enough, the blood is incompatible.

The emperor was furious, knocked over the bowl, and slapped Zhen Huan:

"Bitch! I love you so deeply, and you dare to betray me! Tell me, who is the adulterer?!"

"Your Majesty...your concubine...your concubine..."

"How dare you call yourself a concubine?! I don't have a woman like you! Zhen Huan... What a noble concubine Zhen Huan! From today on, you are demoted to a commoner!"

At this tense moment, Xiao Tao's voice suddenly sounded in my ears, with a hint of urgency:

"Empress! The Oleander System has issued a mission! Save the twins' lives! This time the reward is 19% of the grace index!"

I was startled. This mission was undoubtedly incredibly difficult. The Emperor was furious, and the twins' lives were in imminent danger. I quickly pondered a solution, trying to find a way to both save the twins and appease the Emperor's wrath.

In the center of the hall, the emperor continued to issue his orders:

"Zhen Huan, for defiling the harem, banished her and the twins to the cold palace... and sentenced them to death..."

At this critical moment, the palace gate was suddenly pushed open, accompanied by a burst of hurried footsteps and Caixing's shout:

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Oh no! Concubine Hui has fainted!"

This sudden change made everyone's eyes turn to the door. I was secretly surprised. Why did Shen Meizhuang appear at this time? I didn't inform her in this life!

Although I was shocked, I remained calm. I quickly stepped forward and knelt before the emperor, my tone filled with anxiety and pleading:

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Concubine Hui is about to give birth, and her condition is critical! Your Majesty, please be sure to visit Concubine Hui first. Her safety is related to the royal heir, and there must be no mistakes. At this critical juncture, can you please put aside these disputes for the time being, so as not to dampen the joy and affect the birth of the royal heir? I know that I have failed to manage the harem well, and I cannot escape the blame, but Your Majesty, please consider my loyalty and give me a chance to make amends. In the future, I will do my utmost to ensure the peace of the harem."

The emperor frowned, his gaze lingered in Shen Meizhuang's direction for a moment, and finally spoke slowly:

"Okay, I'll go see Concubine Hui first."

With that, the Emperor turned and strode away, leaving the room in silence and astonishment. Zhen Huan was roughly dragged away by the guards, her eyes filled with despair and unwillingness, but I could only helplessly watch her back as she gradually receded into the distance.

And Wen Shichu also rushed over at this time.

......

I followed the emperor's footsteps and hurried into the Suiyu Pavilion.

Inside the house, Shen Meizhuang was experiencing the hardships of childbirth, while Wen Shichu was busy running around, with fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

I observed all this silently and sighed in my heart. Although I had tried my best to avoid tragedy in the "blood recognition" incident, Shen Meizhuang's fate still seemed unable to escape the predetermined trajectory.

Xiao Tao leaned close to my ear, her voice filled with urgency:

"Empress, the Oleander System has released a new mission. It requires you to help Shen Meizhuang and Wen Shichu grow old together. The reward is 20% of your grace index. This mission is getting harder and harder, but we can't not do it. If you fail to complete it, your grace index will be deducted by 20%, which is a huge loss."

I had mixed feelings, knowing full well how difficult this task was, but thinking of the first-aid pill given to me by the oleander elf, I decided to give it a try.

The Emperor waited anxiously outside the Suiyu Pavilion, his mind racing as he kept recalling what had just happened. He muttered to himself:

"Although Zhen has been banished to the cold palace, the rumors about her and Wen Shichu were indeed spread by Concubine Xiu and Concubine Qi. Come, banish them both to the cold palace as a warning to others."

After saying this, the Emperor turned to look at me standing beside him, his eyes filled with approval and trust:

"Noble Consort Li, you have now reached the position of Vice Empress. Then you can take another step forward and move to the position of Imperial Noble Consort."

When I heard this, although my heart was in turmoil, I remained calm and respectful on the surface, and whispered:

"Yes, I obey your order."

At this time, the emperor noticed that Wen Shichu was still standing anxiously by the side, so he said to him:

"Go in and tell Concubine Hui that I have ordered her to be promoted to Noble Concubine Hui immediately, so that she can give birth peacefully. I owe Mei'er so much, and when she safely gives birth to the prince, I will definitely compensate her well."

At this time, Doctor Wen said:

"Your Majesty, Imperial Concubine Hui's bleeding has lessened and she can now push. Imperial Concubine Hui said she wants to see Lady Zhen from the Cold Palace."

The emperor thought for a moment and said:

"The most important thing right now is that Li Mei'er gives birth smoothly. Pass it on."

......

Not long after, Zhen Huan arrived at the Suiyu Pavilion and entered the inner hall to accompany Shen Meizhuang. Then, the sound of a baby crying was heard.

At this time, I said to the emperor:

"Your Majesty, you have been tired all day. Go back and rest. Come back to see Sister Mei when she feels better. I am here."

The Emperor gave me a look of approval, then went back. I knew that at this point, the relationship between me and the Emperor had risen a little bit.

......

"I know... I know you hate me. I hate that I tricked you into drinking the wine that the Queen Mother gave to me and the Emperor that day, causing you a lifelong regret."

"Sister, you are confused!"

Just then, I pulled the curtain beside the bed, and the three of them looked at me in surprise.

They panicked, knowing that the matter could no longer be concealed.

At this time, the weak Shen Meizhuang murmured:

"I'm going to die, what am I afraid of? I'm happy to be so foolish for once. I only wish..."

At this time, Shen Meizhuang looked at me and pleaded:

"My Queen, I only hope that you will let my child go, let Wen Shichu go."

At this time, Wen Shichu and Zhen Huan both knelt down.

Zhen Huan said:

"My Lady, I have caused great disaster and know that my death is imminent. However, I still beg you not to tell anyone about what happened today and please be kind to the child."

I nodded.

"I'm here to help you."

The three were shocked.
