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

Chapter 811

"Leng Yan, save me." She only came to her senses when she arrived at the Cold Palace, and then hurriedly grabbed the man who was about to leave.

"Brother Yan, save me..."

Pei Fang hugged him from behind.

Leng Yan froze, then slowly pried her hands apart. "Fangfang, you should have known this would happen."

"I'm married now."

He and Chu Xinyi got married three days ago. "I can't let down someone who loves me. We've already missed our chance."

"You stay in the Cold Palace and behave yourself. When the opportunity arises, Pei Shang will rescue you."

He was able to send her to the Cold Palace to ensure she wouldn't be bullied.

This was the last thing he could do.

Pei Fang cried, "Waaah... You're all so cruel! What's wrong with just loving my cousin? And wasn't it Qi Yumin who slept with my cousin in the end? Why am I being banished to the cold palace?"

Leng Yan didn't say anything more to her.

She never realized her mistake.

He simply instructed someone to keep an eye on her and then left.

......

Yongning Palace.

Han Lian and Jiang Sijin came to see her.

Qi Yumin was listless and sat on the bed crying.

"Minmin, don't cry. We've gone to Jiaofang Palace."

"Her Majesty the Empress is not blaming you. This is not your fault either."

Qi Yumin cried, "I'm so sorry to her..."

“But if it weren’t for you, Pei Fang might have succeeded, and Your Majesty would have been even more upset,” Jiang Sijin comforted her.

"Her Majesty is currently taking care of the three young princes and doesn't have time to come, so she sent us instead. Don't be too sad."

"Although the Emperor only has the Empress in his heart, he is also good to us."

Han Lian said, "Yes, this was an accident. As long as you can control your emotions and not get caught up in it, you can conceive a dragon's child and have someone to rely on for the rest of your life."

"We're counting on you from now on."

Qi Yumin was amused by her words.

But I really can't be optimistic.

She couldn't possibly be pregnant with the Emperor's child because...

Nothing happened that day; Shen Yue forced her to do it.

She's even afraid of getting pregnant!

She'd rather die than be pregnant with Shen Yue's bastard child.

But I can't tell anyone this.

......

"Ayue."

Lady Yun entered the palace early in the morning.

"Mother, I'm fine. How's my sister-in-law?"

Madam Yun said, "She gave birth to a daughter, who is very cute."

"If Ghost Hand hadn't left that night, perhaps this wouldn't have happened, Your Majesty..."

Madam Yun was at a loss for words.

Murong Yu did not do it on purpose.

It was a setup, but it happened anyway, and regardless of the process, the result is hard to accept.

Yun Xiyue said, "Mother, I'm really alright."

She really didn't seem sad or angry.

Madam Yun was relieved and hugged her three grandsons before leaving.

After everyone left, Murong Yu returned from court.

"Ayue."

He was extremely anxious and worried about her.

"I already told you everything's fine," Yun Xiyue said helplessly. "I believe in His Majesty."

"Really?"

He always seemed tense, like someone who had done something wrong.

It is said that he was not in the mood to read memorials.

Yun Xiyue could no longer pretend. "Hmm, because have you ever thought about the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind?"

"And the person behind it might be someone else, someone close to you."

Murong Yu investigated but found no clues. "Who is it?"

"Shen Yue."

Yun Xiyue also sent people to investigate. Because she was in the inner palace, she knew all of Qi Yumin's whereabouts and also knew that Shen Yue had been in contact with Qi Yumin.

"Let's not alert them yet."

So she was faking her tears?

Murong Yu was both amused and exasperated. "A-Yue, you scared me to death!"

If it's Shen Yue, then it's highly likely that he joined forces with Sikong Xuanche and the others, and someone was helping him behind the scenes to evade his investigation.
