I was stunned, but I quickly smiled and turned to Gu Mianmian."Mianmian, check all the places where Soul Devourers were sold half a year ago and give me a list, especially those that might be involved in the imperial court or the imperial palace.”
"What?" Gu Mianmian was stunned.
" Because someone is using it against me." I paused, not expressing any inclination." If you find out, don't alert the enemy. Just tell Li Yuan."”
" Ah!" Her expression changed slightly as she nodded.
.
Shen Lin didn't say anything from the beginning to the end. After they left, I turned my head to look at him. Just as I was about to break the silence, I heard him frown and ask me,""What happened to your injuries?”
I was stunned. I thought that there was no flaw in my cover, but I didn't expect him to still see through it."Ah!"
"Do you still want to hide it?" Shen Lin stared at me." You couldn't catch your breath from the beginning to the end. You couldn't hold on anymore, could you? If I don't stop, what will you do?”
" What can I do?" I was stunned for a moment and forced a smile." At most, I'll let you stab me to vent your anger."”
Shen Lin was a little anxious." Do you think I'm going to make things difficult for you?"”
After a moment of silence, I raised my head and met his gaze."Shen Lin, I know it's my fault, but I was forced into such a situation. What else could I do? I only have one chance. I can only give it my all.”
"Let's go all out?" Shen Lin narrowed his eyes." Do you see him as an enemy or me as an enemy?"”
" That's not what I meant." I lowered my head." But he insisted on stopping this matter, and I insisted on doing it. If I told you, what would you do? Help him or help me? No matter which one, you would be in a difficult position.”
"I didn't want to put you in a difficult position," I whispered after taking a deep breath."I really can't bear the consequences of failing at the last step, so I could only try my best to hide it."”
"If you take on everything alone, then what about our relationship over the years?”Shen Lin sighed and said in a low voice," How did you get hurt?"”
" It's an old injury." I couldn't deny it, and I didn't dare to say it directly. I only said vaguely," I didn't care about it at that time. I didn't think it was serious if I didn't do it.”
"You feel it now?" He grabbed my wrist helplessly and held it for a while. When he looked at me again, he frowned." Your injury wasn't serious. Why did it drag on? Just now, he had exerted so much strength that it had caused more damage. If this dragged on, his foundation would be shaken.”
I nodded and whispered,"I understand."”
Shen Lin glanced at me and frowned slightly. He did not ask further and changed his question."Are you doing well in the palace?"
Seeing that he didn't bother about my injuries, I heaved a sigh of relief."How can it be better? That day, he lost his temper, and the next day, he helped the noble consort to make me a figurehead, and then he never showed his face. The Xue family deliberately wanted to suppress me, and they wanted to blame me for everything. The Empress Dowager was standing there, and no one dared to come over..."
" Alone and helpless, surrounded by enemies," I concluded my current situation and quickly smiled." Do I sound like a resentful woman?”
Shen Lin didn't answer me." Are you still happy?" he asked after a while.”
" Yes." I lowered my eyes and smiled faintly." At least I can stay by his side in a legitimate way. When I want to see him, I don't have to stare at a red wall in a daze. Even if I still can't see him, someone will report to me every day where he slept tonight.”
" Luoying." Shen Lin's voice was as gentle as before, but it was full of sighs." You have to understand his standpoint. He must-"
" Of course I understand." I interrupted him to express my sobriety and determination." The Rong family is his biggest threat. The empress is destined to be a chess piece and will be abandoned sooner or later. In that case, it's better for me to be someone else. At least I can satisfy him when I'm valuable and save him some trouble when I should disappear."”
After a pause, I said," Don't call me Luoying. I'm Jinyan. You don't have to care about that surname. Just call me Yanyan."”
" Yanyan." Shen Lin was silent for a moment before he spoke." Of course, he knows what you know better. It's just that the fight with the Rong family is not as simple as you think. The waters are too deep, and no one is confident of winning. If you get involved with such an identity, it will be difficult for you to get out of it unscathed no matter which side wins in the future."”
I met his eyes and knew what Shen Lin was saying was what Jing Yi wanted to say, so I didn't agree or refute.
.
When he followed Fu Hongyan back to Kun Yi Palace, it was already dusk. He had just entered the house when he heard someone report that Concubine Lan of Auspicious Auspicious Palace had a miscarriage two hours ago.
I've only been in the palace for ten days, and I can only say that I know of this person. She's a fourth-ranked official of the Supreme Court, and she's the kind who's still favored but can't stir up trouble, so I don't have the time to pay attention to her.
"Miscarriage?" I frowned and looked at Shui Mo in front of me. I was very surprised." She's pregnant?”
Shui Mo nodded and pursed his lips." He said it's been two months. I don't know if he's that slow or if he's deliberately hiding it."”
" Auspicious Palace doesn't have a master seat. I wouldn't have been able to keep it if I had told you earlier." I didn't take it to heart." Did anyone else come to find me?”
" No." Shui Mo shook his head and added," Miss, do you want to go over there and take a look?"”
I hesitated and asked,"Does the Emperor know?"”
" I know, but nothing happened, so the imperial physician reported it to us." Shui Mo seemed to have done more homework than I did these days." Although it's just a concubine position, Ruixiang Palace was originally Consort De's place. Yesterday, Consort Hui's incident just happened. At this time, are you..."
" Yes." I nodded." Let's go."”
Hurriedly changing my clothes and adornments, I went to Auspicious Palace.
Auspicious Palace and Golden Jubilee Palace were the two largest palaces in the harem besides the three palaces of Qianyang, Kunyi, and Shouyan. Even Guangyang Palace and Changyi Palace, where the princes and princesses lived, were slightly inferior. Originally, Consort De and Consort Gui had each occupied a corner from the moment they entered the palace. They had fought against each other for five years. Consort De finally won by fighting steadily. Unexpectedly, she died before she could finish her apprenticeship, which allowed Consort De to gain the world.
If Rong Chengxiao had successfully entered the palace at the beginning of the year, perhaps Rong Chengjia would have been able to turn the tide. However, because of my sudden appearance, there were unexpected variables and it dragged on for another half a year. Now, Consort De's faction has been wiped out. There has never been a master in Auspicious Auspicious Palace. It is said that there was a Jie Yu who died inexplicably. It is reasonable that Consort Lan did not dare to say that she was pregnant. It is not strange that she was harmed by others now.
When they arrived at Auspicious Palace, they saw all the servants kneeling on the ground. When they asked, they said that the Imperial Consort had just sent someone over to take a look. They didn't expect me to come personally. I waved my hand and told them to get up and go to their own work. I didn't say much and walked into the house.
In fact, I didn't want to make this trip. Once I interfered, I had to keep an eye on the aftermath. Otherwise, if anything happened, it would still be dragged onto my head. If it wasn't an important person, it wouldn't be worth it if the gains didn't make up for the losses. The Imperial Consort didn't show up because of this consideration, let alone me, who was still in a mess.
However, it was just as Shui Mo had said. I indeed needed this opportunity to show my attitude. It was also a good opportunity to show those smart and intelligent people the direction of the wind, and to let those stupid and muddle-headed people reveal their true colors as soon as possible. As for this Concubine Lan, if she was useful, she could be of some use in the future.
Of course, the only thing that could be used in the harem was to be favored. When I thought of being favored, I couldn't help but resist, especially on this day. So when I entered the house, I secretly decided not to make things difficult for myself. There was no need to say anything more. I would go in and take a look before leaving.
However, the moment I followed the palace maid into Concubine Lan's bedroom, my feet suddenly stopped. Facing Concubine Lan who was struggling to get up, I forgot to say anything.
The faint fragrance in the room was obviously the smell of the medicine that Shen Lin had concocted that caused Tang Jie to become enemies with him…
I clearly remember that when Lanshan asked about the medicine, Shen Lin said that it was a contraceptive method and that it could not be used within three months of conception.
.
When I returned to the Kun Yi Palace with mixed feelings, someone came to report that Jing Yi had arrived and was waiting for me in Yi Lan Palace.
His heart sank. Since he came at this hour, he definitely knew where I went. If there was anything, he would have sent someone to look for me. If there was nothing, what was the meaning of waiting in the main hall with such great fanfare?
There were always many unexpected things in the world. Whether it was Auspicious Auspicious Palace or Kunyi Palace, they still paused when they stepped through the door.
Jing Yi didn't sit on the main seat in the Torrential Waves Palace. Instead, he was lazily leaning against a chair at the side. At this moment, he was chatting and laughing with the two beautiful maidservants Rong Chengyao sent to the palace as dowry.
