Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 799

"His purpose in doing this was to leave me speechless, because I was the one who ordered him to leave the capital. If he dies on the road, everyone will think it was my doing."

No explanation is needed, and Shen Yue doesn't need to go to such lengths.

"Don't pay attention to these comments. In the past, how many people called me a tyrant, cold-blooded, ruthless, and heartless?

When Murong Yu killed King Cheng, he experienced similar public opinion.

He didn't care and told Leng Yan to go and do his work.

Shen Yue was uneasy. He had done it on purpose, but after doing it, he was also a little flustered, afraid that Murong Yu would come after him.

He refrained from making any rash moves because he didn't want to give the other party any leverage over him.

But after waiting for a long time, no summons was sent for him to enter the palace.

The next day, he went to the Imperial Study as usual to perform his duties, and nothing happened.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Highness, you've dropped something."

When Qi Yumin looked up and saw Shen Yue, she felt terrible and even in the sunlight, she felt a chill run through her body.

"Thank you very much, Commander Shen..."

She took the handkerchief he handed her.

"You're welcome." Shen Yue smiled at her and turned to leave.

This man is truly a persistent ghost.

Qi Yumin was restless all day.

We arrived at the Jiaofang Palace.

She got distracted while discussing the month's accounts and the 100-day celebration with Yun Xiyue.

"What are you daydreaming about?" Yun Xiyue noticed that she was lost in thought, so she closed the ledger and had someone bring her a bowl of Star God Soup.

"Oh...maybe I haven't been sleeping well lately." Qi Yumin smiled awkwardly as she came to her senses.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Yun Xiyue told her to go back first.

Qingmei returned from the imperial palace and reported, "Your Majesty, Prince Mo is mostly alright, he just suffered a minor injury."

"He said you don't need to worry. This is a matter between him and the Emperor..."

Pei Zhili's death caused quite a few thorny issues.

Yun Xiyue knew that Murong Yu was currently extremely busy.

Worried that Mo Ye might intend to start a war with Da Xia, he sent Qingmei to inquire and find out the truth.

"On my way back, I heard that Consort De had been in contact with Shen Yue. Your Highness, do you think... we should send someone to investigate?"

Yun Xiyue was surprised. Thinking of Qi Yumin's expression just now, could it be that she and Shen Yue had some grudges or entanglements?

"Don't act rashly yet."

......

Qi Yumin returned to Yongning Palace.

Upon entering the house, I noticed someone hiding on the roof beam.

"You guys go down first!"

After the palace maid left, the man jumped down from the roof beam.

Qi Yumin's face turned ugly. "What...what are you doing here? Didn't you say you wouldn't come looking for me again?"

"Your Majesty, how heartless you are! I saved your life after all."

"Are you helping Yue'er now?"

Shen Yue scrutinized the woman and realized that Murong Yu's harem was indeed full of beauties. The spoiled and willful young lady, whom he hadn't seen for a year, had become gentle and dignified. Perhaps because she had spent more time with Yun Xiyue, her demeanor and tone were somewhat similar to hers.

It's worth mentioning that Qi Yumin intentionally learned from Yun Xiyue because she thought Yun Xiyue looked very beautiful that way.

As she studied, she developed the dignified demeanor of an imperial concubine.

Power and status can indeed support a person.

Although she was not favored in the harem, she was trusted by the Empress and was the Empress's right-hand woman. She lacked nothing, ate well, slept well, and lived a very comfortable life.

She has learned a lot from Yun Xiyue. She is no longer the spoiled, willful, impulsive, and brainless eldest daughter of the Qi family she used to be.

However, she always felt uneasy and afraid when facing Shen Yue, because he had something on her.

"Don't come any closer..."
