Chapter 35
On this day, both inside and outside the palace seemed to be very quiet, but no one could see the turmoil in the dark.

In the middle of the night, in the East Palace, a secret guard suddenly appeared in Yan Beiqin's bedroom. Yan Beiqin instantly opened his eyes, and his eyes were full of vigilance.

Apparently he was used to light sleep, and he was fully awake with the slightest movement.

The man's whole body was covered in black, and his face could not be seen. Seeing Yan Beiqin sitting up from the couch, he knelt down and said, "I will see the crown prince."

"Say."

"My subordinates have already found out that Concubine Li belongs to Concubine Qiu. Concubine Qiu has always been at odds with the empress, and she is the biological mother of His Highness. This matter was not caused by Concubine Li's anger on purpose."

"Concubine Qiu?" Yan Beiqin sneered, "Concubine Qiu and Concubine Li rarely get together, how could there be any connection between them, among them, have you found out?"

"Your Highness, Concubine Li has a maid beside her. She is dressed up by a man. Every time he goes to Concubine Qiu's place, he will dress up as a eunuch, and when Concubine Li is there, he will dress up as a palace maid. That's why no one finds out."

Yan Beiqin squinted his eyes and sneered, "Concubine Li is just a pawn of Concubine Qiu. Concubine Qiu uses Concubine Li to play a game of knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger. This prince will teach her what is the real knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger!"

For several days in a row, the palace was quiet and nothing earth-shattering happened. It was rare for concubines to talk about rivalry for favor and jealousy, which was commonplace in this deep palace, and there was nothing worth discussing.

In the early morning of that day, Eunuch Li rushed to the Yun Mansion, saying that something serious happened in the palace, and the Empress ordered him to come quickly to pick her into the palace, but he did not mention the reason.

Qiao Cui was a little scared, and was in a state of panic all the way: "Miss, something happened in the palace, why did the empress want you to come here, what is the empress' intention?"

Eunuch Li was walking in front, his ears twitched when he heard this, and Yun Lanyue said indifferently: "The Empress has her own intentions, so why guess."

When Yun Lanyue was talking, she looked at Eunuch Li intentionally or unintentionally, Qiao Cui understood, nodded quickly and said: "It's Qiao Cui who is careless, don't blame Miss."

Yun Lanyue watched Eunuch Li take her into the deep palace, and asked, "Eunuch Li, whose palace are you going to?"

Eunuch Li turned his head and said: "Miss Huiyun, this is to go to Concubine Li's palace."

"Concubine Li? Is something wrong?"

"Miss Yun will know when she goes, she is right ahead."

Yun Lanyue squinted her eyes, and didn't ask any more questions. As soon as the group arrived at Lijiaoxuan of Concubine Li, they heard crying and begging for mercy. If she heard correctly, it was from Concubine Li.

Qiao Cui looked at her, Yun Lanyue nodded to her, motioning her to keep quiet, Qiao Cui bit her lip, helped Yun Lanyue and walked in under the leadership of Eunuch Li.

The emperor and the empress were all there, kneeling in the yard, and they all dared not show their air. Concubine Li knelt at the emperor's feet, begging for mercy humbly, but the emperor was so cold that he didn't even want to look at Concubine Li .

Yun Lanyue walked to the queen's side, thinking: Is this the most ruthless emperor's house?Will this kind of picture often appear in front of her eyes in the future?

Yun Lanyue glanced at the queen, and the queen stretched out her hand to beckon her over, so she avoided the etiquette and didn't salute. The emperor naturally saw her, but he didn't say anything, but his brows were subconsciously frowned.

All the maids and eunuchs in Lijiaoxuan were kneeling, lying on the ground and not daring to move, Yun Lanyue's eyes were sharp, and she saw a person wearing a court lady's clothes kneeling alone in one place, the maid's clothes were torn apart, With a strong chest exposed, it was clearly a man. He was not prostrate on the ground like the others, but he was kneeling straight, without any fear at all.

Yun Lanyue was used to seeing dead people, and the firmness in the man's eyes made her understand that he was not not afraid, but that he was ready to die.

It is not uncommon for a man to be in Concubine Li's Palace. It is normal for every concubine to be guarded by guards, but if a man is dressed as a court lady and mixes in Concubine Li's Palace, it is absolutely suspicious.

Yun Lanyue once heard a story in the palace. In the previous dynasty, there was a faint king who was addicted to wine and sex all day long. There were countless beauties in the harem, but there were too many women, and there was always too much time to spare, so a concubine managed to arrange a man by his side. On weekdays, she is shown as a court lady, but in private, she is the concubine's lover.

After all, the paper can't contain the fire, and the Hunjun finally learned the truth, and was so angry that he chopped the man to death on the spot, and the concubine was also sentenced to death to vent the hatred in the Hunjun's heart.

How similar this situation is to the plot in the story, could it be that Concubine Li followed the example of that concubine and raised a man in the palace?
Yun Lanyue was surprised, and looked at Concubine Li who was kneeling at the emperor's feet begging for mercy. She burst into tears, as if she was very wronged. She kept making wishes and framed every word, but the emperor didn't listen to a word, and let her cry .

For some reason, when she looked at Concubine Li, she was really wronged. A person with a ghost in his heart would not cry out so eagerly.

"Your Majesty, the concubine is really wronged, and the concubine is really innocent. Can the concubine not see the loyalty of the concubine to the emperor?"

The emperor finally couldn't bear it, kicked Concubine Li away, and said sharply: "I have seen it with my own eyes, but you still dare to argue, do you think I am really confused?"

Concubine Li didn't dare to cry out, and climbed to the emperor's feet again: "Your Majesty, I don't know what's going on. I just woke up in the morning and saw it like this. I was really wronged. Someone must have deliberately Framed the courtiers and concubines, that's why the emperor saw this scene."

"According to what you mean, don't you mean that the queen is framing you? What can you do to make the queen care about you?"

"The concubine doesn't know, the concubine really doesn't know where he offended the empress, or the people around the empress." While speaking, Concubine Li stared straight at Yun Lanyue, clearly meaning something.

The queen frowned, and sighed: "I was thinking that if you sincerely admit your mistake, I would ask the emperor to spare your life, but if you slander me again and again, I don't have to bear it anymore." After saying that, the queen looked at The emperor said one word at a time: "Your Majesty has learned a lesson. Every morning, all the concubines in the harem would come to the concubine's palace to pay their respects. Concubine Li always abides by the rules and has never been absent. She was absent today for no reason. The concubine wondered if it was Li The concubine is not feeling well, so she came here specially to have a look, who knows that she saw this scene as soon as she came, and it coincided with the emperor coming to visit Concubine Li, this is how the current situation came about."

The emperor nodded solemnly, without any doubt in his eyes.

Li Fei yelled: "Why is it such a coincidence, why!"

"Coincidence? I think it makes sense. No matter you are Concubine Li or another concubine today, if you don't come to pay your respects, I will naturally worry about it. What is wrong with going to visit? If it was really done by me, I will And how can you guess the emperor's mind, just in time to see through you when the emperor comes to see you!"
