The Rebirth of Li Fei: The Strongest Palace Fighting System

I took out the first aid pill and gave it to Shen Meizhuang, who recovered immediately.

"What kind of elixir is this? I have never seen it before."

"Don't worry about it for now. Sister Mei is better now. Lingxi and Hongyan have just been sent to the cold palace. If Jinghe stays, there will inevitably be another blood test to prove their relationship. So..."

I turned to Zhen Huan:

"You have a fake death drug, quickly get it and give it to Sister Mei and Jinghe. We will say that Sister Mei is difficult to deal with, the princess is weak in Qi and blood, and both mother and daughter will die. Later, I will come to take care of the funeral of these two people... and then..."

I turned to Wen Shichu and said:

"I will send someone to secretly send Sister Mei and Jinghe to your residence. You two can enjoy your life there."

When Wen Shichu heard this, tears welled up in his eyes, as if he saw a blueprint for the future.

Shen Meizhuang also cried with joy.

Zhen Huan said:

"How did you know I had the fake death drug? Why did you beg to help me..."

I said:

"I am in charge of the six palaces. I can find out what medicine Lord Wen has prescribed. I will not only help them, but I will also help you."

Zhen Huan looked shocked.

......

"Has Mei'er's funeral been completed?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, rest assured. I will follow your instructions and carry out the ceremony as a royal concubine."

"It's a pity that Princess Jinghe and I have such a weak relationship. I trust you to do the work."

At this time, Xiao Tao was beside me and tugged at the corner of my clothes:

"Your Majesty! The Emperor's favor index has increased by another 5%! Your index is now as high as 103% of the Imperial Concubine position. Your Majesty...you will become the Queen!"

I was shocked when I heard that.

Queen...Queen...

The emperor suddenly spoke, his tone filled with unquestionable majesty:

"The Ulanara family has been demoted to a commoner. The position of Empress has been vacant for a long time. Rong'er, I have made up my mind. You will be the head of the harem. What do you think?"

I was startled and quickly knelt on the ground. I looked up at the emperor, my eyes filled with surprise and anxiety.

"Your Majesty, I…what virtue and ability do I possess to shoulder such a heavy responsibility? The position of Empress Dowager is one of unparalleled honor, and I fear I am not up to the task."

The emperor looked at me, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes:

"Rong'er, there's no need to be so modest. You are dignified and virtuous, with a noble character. No one in this harem can match you. I believe that you will be able to manage this harem well and become my virtuous wife."

I bit my lip and wanted to say something else, but I heard Xiao Tao beside me say in a voice that only I could hear:

"Your Majesty, if you become the Queen, no one in this palace will dare to bully you."

I was slightly stunned and looked at Xiaotao, who was looking at me with encouragement. I thought to myself, Xiaotao is right, this might be my chance to change my fate.

So, I spoke again, my voice firmer:

"Your Majesty, I will do my best to live up to your high expectations."

The emperor nodded with satisfaction, a pleased smile on his face:

"Okay, Rong'er, I was right about you. From now on, you are the master of this harem."

I lowered my head, and with a barely perceptible tremor in my voice, I asked softly:

"Your Majesty, what do you plan to do with Zhen and her twin children in the cold palace?"

Upon hearing this, the Emperor frowned, his eyes deep and complex, as if lost in deep thought. After a long moment, he slowly spoke, his voice tinged with a subtle pain and determination:

"According to palace rules, Zhen... and her twins, shall be executed. However, considering she once served me, her body shall be left intact."

I was startled. Although I had expected such an outcome, I still couldn't help feeling sad when I heard the emperor say it himself.

I secretly glanced at Xiaotao beside me, and saw that her face was full of shock, and her eyes were full of sympathy and pity.

I took a deep breath and tried to keep my voice calm.

"Your Majesty, I understand. However, although Zhen was at fault, the twins are innocent. They... they are, after all, your flesh and blood."

The emperor closed his eyes and sighed deeply:

"Rong'er, I know this, but the rules of this palace cannot be abolished. Moreover, the mistakes made by Zhen are enough to bring disaster to all nine clans. I am showing great mercy by sparing her body."

I lowered my head, speechless. I knew the Emperor's decision was irreversible. But thinking of those innocent twins, I couldn't help but feel a surge of sadness.

Tao, standing aside, also lowered her head silently, as if mourning for Zhen and the twins. At this moment, the entire palace fell into silence, with only the emperor's heavy breathing echoing in the air.

......

The cold palace, a corner forgotten by time, is dark and damp, the air thick with the smell of decay and despair. The mottled walls, the weed-covered courtyard, and the rusted iron gate all speak of the desolation and desolation of this place.

Baoque held the white silk and poisoned wine in his hands, and walked with me into this abandoned land with heavy steps.

Zhen Huan, the woman who once treated me like a sister, now sat in a corner of the cold palace. Although her appearance was no longer the same as before, her composure and tenacity still inspired awe. She smiled and saluted me:

"May the Empress be blessed. Once upon a time, we shared happy times together in the Zhen Mansion. Back then, we never imagined that we would be in this situation today. I have been demoted to a commoner, and my sister has become the master of the harem."

I took a deep breath, tried to calm myself down, and then said to Baoque who came with me:

"Everyone, please leave. I want to talk to my sister alone."

Bao Que looked uneasy, as if he wanted to say something, but swallowed it back. I gently waved my hand:

"It's okay, you guys go out."

As the servants left, only Zhen Huan and I were left in the room. At that moment, time seemed to freeze, and all the grudges and hatreds intertwined and collided in this small space.

I slowly walked to Zhen Huan, placed the white silk and poisoned wine on the table, and then looked at her quietly. Zhen Huan's eyes passed from the items in my hands to my face, her eyes full of complexity and emotion:

"I didn't expect that the one who would send me off in the end would be you."

I smiled, a smile that contained both bitterness and relief:

"Yes, the world is unpredictable. Who could have predicted the situation today? Zhen Huan, you and I are sisters. Although it has come to this, in my heart, you will always be the sister who talked about daily life with me in the Zhen Mansion."

Zhen Huan also smiled, and there was a hint of sadness in her smile:

"The Emperor finally let me die. Death, for me, may be a relief. But, can you please let my child go? This is my last plea to you."
