The struggle for rebirth is in the harem

Chapter 187

It wasn't until later that she accidentally hooked up with Steward Jiang from the outer court that her life became easier. At any rate, no one deducted her daily expenses.

The courtyard where Mrs. Yu lives is the most remote place in the mansion, and there is a bamboo forest outside the courtyard as a cover.After flirting with each other for a while, at night, when the servant girl fell asleep, she sneaked out to have a private meeting with Jiang Guanshi, who was watching the night.

Jiang Guanshi is about the same age as Yu Shi, and married his wife early, but his family members are far behind the handsome and charming Yu Shi.

Among the maids in the palace, they also have their own social circles.Yu Shi's maid, Chun Xing, made friends with Bai Lishi's Tao Zhi.Tao Zhi told Chun Xing what she heard from Bai Lishi as gossip.

Chun Xing usually gets along well with Yu Shi, and Yu Shi doesn't treat her harshly, so Chun Xing told Yu Shi about Bai Lishi's guess.

After knowing that the matter of the third son might be related to Concubine Jiang, Yu Shi was very excited.

She believed that Concubine Jiang had the guts and means to plot against her before, but now she can kill the third son.It's a pity that there is no evidence to prove that Concubine Jiang is guilty.

Regrettably, the Yu family wanted to punish Concubine Jiang too much. Why did she lose hope for the rest of her life, and she could still rely on her son to live a good life.

With an idea, Yu thought, if there is no evidence, then she will create evidence.Concubine Jiang's most precious thing is her son, and she wants to let Concubine Jiang taste the consequences of losing her son.

Then Yu Shi remembered that when she was very young, her father worshiped a master and learned tricks from street performers.The fire-breathing skills they performed used the role of phosphorous powder.

There used to be phosphor powder in their home, and she had seen the blue light of phosphor powder at night when she was a child.At that time, she was also extremely frightened, thinking that there was a ghost.

After figuring out the plan, she asked Steward Jiang to go out and find a trickster to buy phosphor powder, and persuaded him to help her carry out the action, and sprinkled phosphor powder in front of Concubine Jiang's side and Liu Yan's courtyard.

Then he pretended to be chased by the will-o'-the-wisp, and pretended to be sick from fright.

Jiang Guanshi's acting skills are in place, and things develop as expected by Yu Shi. No one knows that the will-o'-the-wisps are man-made. Liu Yan is also afraid of being taken away, and his condition worsens.

If the concubine hadn't sent someone to find out that Guanshi Jiang had gone out to buy phosphorous powder, she wouldn't have been exposed.

These inside stories of Yu Shi are unknown to everyone.The only way is that Lao Tongfang conspired to frame Concubine Jiang.

After the real culprit was found out, Liu Yan survived the disease without any scars.Twelve days later, the concubine brought the side concubine Jiang and others to send it off to the empress, and offered to burn incense to celebrate the reward.

The matter was settled without a trace, and Lin Yuqiao also received clothes and jewelry from the princess as a thank you gift.

What she didn't expect was that after this incident, the princess seemed to have figured out something, and finally let go of Liu Feng's affairs, and her illness improved day by day.

In September, Liu Heng successfully returned from Chenliu after finishing his business trip. The epidemic in several areas has been effectively controlled and has not spread.

Chen Liu's Fucheng also pleaded guilty and was escorted back to Kyoto.For this corruption case, Liu Heng was not small, but his methods were soft, and he only investigated the most direct responsible persons.

The other officials involved in this matter also knew that Liu Heng had obtained the account book about their distribution of spoils from Chen Liufucheng, and they were not convicted because they were released by Liu Heng, so they couldn't help feeling grateful to him.

Therefore, since his return, Liu Heng's reputation in the court has become unprecedentedly good.

Emperor Jianwu was very pleased with the complete success of Liu Heng's trip, and finally made up his mind, announcing the candidate for the new crown prince in the court.

On the second day after Emperor Jianwu ordered Liu Heng to be the crown prince, Lin Yuqiao was diagnosed to be three months pregnant.
