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

Chapter 839

"Should we ask the imperial physician to take a look?"

Qi Yumin shook her head. "No need."

Han Lian stood up. "I'll see you out."

The two left together, but Jiang Sijin stayed behind. "Your Majesty, are you really not bothered?"

"What do you mind?" Yun Xiyue asked.

Jiang Sijin said, "It's about Xiaomin's pregnancy. She seems to mind it a lot... but you didn't scold her or say a word of reproach. She was quite worried that you would dislike her when we came to Jiaofang Palace together."

“If she did nothing wrong, why should she blame herself? It wasn’t her fault back then,” Yun Xiyue said.

Jiang Sijin frowned, suddenly realizing that it made a lot of sense. The events that happened in Fanghua Palace were also very strange; they seemed to have no loopholes, yet they were full of them.

For example, how did Qi Yumin manage to evade Pei Fang's men and break into her bedroom?

Fanghua Palace isn't unguarded. If she wants to save the Emperor, she can ask Yun Xiyue. Besides, since Pei Fang had someone knock out Eunuch Fu and the others, she will definitely escort her and help the Emperor back to his palace. Anyone who can evade the Dragon Shadow Guards must be a master, so how could they not know they are being followed?

What's more, on that day, all the palace maids around Qi Yumin were knocked unconscious in the Imperial Garden, but she managed to escape.

"Does Your Majesty think she's lying?"

Yun Xiyue picked up her teacup and took a sip. "I don't know if she's having any difficulties."

"Your Majesty is truly kind-hearted."

Knowing that Qi Yumin was lying, he didn't expose her, probably waiting for her to tell the truth herself!

"Perhaps she herself didn't know how she got to Fanghua Palace."

Jiang Sijin found it strange, "Then why choose her? Could it be related to the Qi family, or is it to compete for favor?"

"Consort De was not interested in vying for the Emperor's favor; she did not like him."

"If she doesn't want to join the Qi family, she won't dare. Besides, the Qi family doesn't have that kind of ability."

Jiang Sijin racked her brains but still couldn't figure it out.

"Then, Your Highness, do you not intend to pursue this matter further?"

Yun Xiyue laughed and said, "How can we investigate? Besides, the Emperor isn't just mine. If you like, you can compete for his favor too!"

Jiang Sijin's expression changed slightly, and she immediately knelt down, "Your Majesty, please don't joke with me like that."

"I......"

Yun Xiyue helped her up. "So you think you'd be okay with spending your life alone in an empty room?"

"I'm not in good health."

"Didn't Master already take care of your health?"

Mentioning the Ghost Hand, Jiang Sijin's thoughts stirred slightly. "I remember Her Majesty said that if we meet someone we like, you will help us leave the palace."

“Hmm…” Yun Xiyue’s eyes showed a hint of surprise.

"Do you have someone you like?"

Jiang Sijin blushed slightly, "Yes, he's your master, the Ghost Doctor."

You cannot compete with her for the emperor's favor, nor can you actively seek to win his affection.

Surely you can get a man away from her?

Ghost Hand is a bit old, but Jiang Sijin thinks he's no less than the Emperor.

Yun Xiyue's mind went blank. "You like Master..."

"I hope Your Majesty will grant my request. I can fake my death, live in an assumed name, and leave the palace without disturbing you and the Emperor."

But she wanted to marry the legendary doctor with the ghost hand.

Yun Xiyue froze, feeling that this was too difficult to handle.

How could she possibly control her master's life-long affairs?

Jiang Sijin looked at her with expectant eyes, "He listens to you the most. As long as you grant him the marriage, he will definitely agree."
