Chapter 606 Revenge (Thanks to reader 0708)
At night, the emperor turned over the cards and summoned Jiang to agree.

There are various speculations about this. Some people say that it is to understand Yang Guiren's situation, some say that it is his turn according to his position, and some say that it is recommended by Concubine Jianing.

The next day, Jiang was promoted normally and became Jiang Changzai.

Whoever goes to bed is always the topic queen.

"Could it be that the emperor didn't give her a title because he was dissatisfied with her?" Duancai said sarcastically.

Since the last time Durex was wronged and had to swallow her grievance, she has always felt depressed, unable to get out of her anger, and disliked everyone.

After Duancai Ren finished speaking, the expressions of all the untitled concubines present changed.

The concubine frowned, how could such a talented person like to say mean things. Wasn't the loss you suffered last time enough?

"Sister, you are presumptuously speculating on the holy will. Concubine, do you think I am right?" Fang Changzai said delicately.

The concubine had a headache when she heard Fang Changzai's cooing voice, "Fang Changzai, please speak normally."

"Is your concubine saying that I am squeaky? But the girls in our chicken coop all talk like this. I have been like this since I was a child." Fang Changzai was as sweet as ever.

The other party brought out a folk custom, and it was difficult for the concubine to say serious things: "Then you must try to be careful and don't lose your dignity. It's hot, so just leave if you have nothing to do."

After the meeting, Mr. Jiang went to Ning'an Palace as usual. He told Jiang Yuebai that the emperor asked many questions about Yang Guiren and her last night.

Ms. Jiang was about to continue, but was interrupted by Jiang Yuebai: "It's really regrettable and heartbreaking that Sister Yang was harmed like this."

Mrs. Jiang was stunned for a moment, "The emperor is also very concerned and concerned about the empress. He asked no less questions than Guiren Yang, and he asked them in detail."

Jiang Yuebai smiled, the emperor was investigating her. Even if Mrs. Jiang came to tell her about this, maybe it was the emperor's intention.

It seems that we must be more careful with the emperor in the future. It is safe to take one step at least as three or five steps, plan ahead, add fuel to the flames, and stay out of your hands.

Jiang Yuebai changed the subject, pretending to be surprised and shy: "I didn't expect the emperor to care about me so much. Sister, everything went well last night."

Now it was Jiang Changzai's turn to be shy.

Jiang Yuebai struck while the iron was hot and gave Jiang Changzai many rewards, and also asked Susu to give some ice cubes to Jiang Changzai.

You can also get some ice in your regular position. But at this time, it was a scorching summer, and there were many places to use ice, but the ice melted quickly, so there was naturally not enough. Jiang Changzai was naturally flattered by Jiang Yuebai's reward.

As for the person Gong Zhengsi arranged to come in this time, Jiang Yuebai had no hope of being clean. There must be spies inserted inside, and among them there must be people from the emperor.

So she pays great attention to what she says and does, and knows what to say and what not to say.

What she wanted the emperor to know would naturally reach him through this spy. The emperor might have predicted her predictions and expressed doubts about her appearance, but so what?

If the other party suspects you, you can take advantage of it, turn against the client, and make the investigation results beneficial to you.

After all, doubt itself is also an interest in inquiry.

The more skeptical you are, the more curious you will be, and the more time and effort you will spend studying and pondering. After thinking about it, I unconsciously became interested in it.

So what she had to do was to occasionally leave loopholes for the emperor, and then let him verify it himself. In the end, he found that he had misunderstood her, and further confirmed her character or intention...

In the afternoon, Li Beichen summoned his concubines to accompany him to serve him. Late at night, just as he was about to take a rest, Xiaobao suddenly came to report that Meng Jieyu had a high fever.

The concubine and the imperial doctor arrived first. Fang Changzai from the side hall also arrived. An hour later, the Emperor followed Concubine Shun over one after another.

The emperor walked in front, and his concubine followed slowly behind. After yawning, he lazily asked the maid next to him: "What's going on?"

"My wife, I don't know why I started to have a fever in the middle of the night."

Shunbi followed and walked in.

Then I heard Chanjuan crying and kneeling on the ground and saying, "I had a nightmare, and then I started to have a fever. I don't know what happened."

Li Beichen thought of something and frowned, "What nightmare did you have?"

Meng Zhao had a splitting headache and dry lips. He stared blankly at the careless man in front of him and the sleepy-looking Shunbi next to him.

The emperor came after an hour. When Concubine Shun fell ill, she got up, dressed and rushed to see her.

No wonder my parents never agreed to let me enter the palace. There are so many beauties in the harem, no matter how beautiful they are, it is impossible for them to pamper themselves exclusively. But she couldn't let go of her self-esteem and flatter the emperor like other women.

Tears of grievance burst out uncontrollably.

Li Beichen waved his hand, "Except for the imperial doctor, please step aside first."

After everyone retreated, Li Beichen sat beside Meng Zhao's couch and asked warmly: "What did you dream about? Tell me."

Meng Zhao turned his head away and let his tears roll down.

If she told the emperor that she had dreamed about Yang's ferocious appearance, the emperor would probably despise her even more and become more and more convinced that the evil ghost deserved his punishment for seeking his life.

Of course she wouldn't tell the truth.

"I dreamed... I dreamed that the emperor was angry with me and didn't want me anymore."

Meng Zhao twisted her handkerchief and cried until the pear blossoms were covered with rain. She was already a beauty, but now with the help of the light, she became even more delicate and beautiful.

Li Beichen was stunned for a few seconds after hearing this answer, and then patted her on the back, "Don't think so wildly. Take good care of yourself and sleep well."

That's what he said, but he couldn't help but think about how it could be such a coincidence. Today I happened to be staying with my concubine, and she fell ill.

The last time Meng Zhao went to bed, Concubine Shun had a fever in the middle of the night, interrupting their good deeds. Could it be that she deliberately planned to take revenge on Concubine Shun today? Thinking of Yang Guiren's incident, Li Beichen thought it was possible.

He subconsciously touched Meng Zhao's forehead and found that it was really hot and not fake.

Turning to look at the imperial doctor, "Have you prescribed any medicine?" The imperial doctor said respectfully, "I have prescribed medicine to reduce fever and calm the nerves."

"Serve it."

Li Beichen fed Meng Zhao medicine with his own hands and cooled it down one by one. Before leaving, he habitually ordered Liang Xiaobao to leave a jar of preserves for Meng Zhao to pass on.

Meng Zhao felt happy and painful at the same time.

The emperor was very kind to her.

But the emperor is also very kind to others.

Li Beichen walked outside, glanced at everyone with a sinister look, and gently rubbed the ring on his thumb.

"How do you serve your master? No one taught you how to be a slave. If I find out that someone deliberately stirs up trouble in front of Jieyu and makes her upset, I will pull out her tongue and beat her to death with a stick."

Chanjuan and Qingying's cheeks turned pale.

This was the warning the emperor gave them both. In order to comfort their little family during the day, the two of them did say a lot of things that were not worth it to express their grievances on behalf of the empress.

The concubine bent her knees and saluted, "Your Majesty, I have something to say to you alone."

Li Beichen nodded. "It's the middle of the night. Thank you for your hard work. I will go to Jingren Palace with you. I will arrange a sedan chair to take Shunpin back."

When they arrived at Jingren Palace, they lay down on the bed. Concubine He could not help but say:

"Your Majesty, I think there is something strange about Meng Jieyu's illness. Logically speaking, nightmares that make people have fevers can only be dreams of unclean things. I'm afraid Yang Guiren is a little resentful after being wronged. Why don't you find a mage to do something with you? What do you think, the Emperor, after carefully observing the rituals on land and water?"

Li Beichen said "hmm" and said "ok."

This is exactly what Li Beichen is thinking.

He put his arm around Concubine He's shoulders and said, "Jing'er, you've worked hard these days."

Li Beichen thought for a while and told Liang Xiaobao, "Send a few reliable eunuchs to the Changchun Palace to serve you. Keep an eye on Meng Jieyu and don't let her make any mistakes again!"

It was a disguised form to prevent Meng Jieyu from doing stupid things out of sheer imagination.

The concubine followed the emperor's words and said: "I feel that although Sister Meng made a mistake, she must have been frightened. The emperor should go and see her from time to time."

Li Beichen turned over and stared at He Fei, "You are always so considerate, tell me what to do!"

……

The next day, May 19, was the day Xie Zhili entered the palace.

Although she could only wear plain clothes, her red gold and jewel-encrusted headdress looked very festive.

Before leaving, Mrs. Xie reluctantly sent her far away with tears in her eyes. Those who need to be warned have been warned repeatedly.

This granddaughter was originally trained to enter the palace and replace Xie Kewei's favor.

Xie Zhili was raised in a completely different way from Xie Kewei. He was taught to play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since he was a child. He is good at singing, dancing and understanding musical instruments. He is very comprehensive.

The emperor kept the agreement and gave Xie Zhili the title of concubine, which made Mrs. Xie feel honored. The joke about Meng Zhao being demoted has also spread, which further highlights the emperor's reliance.

That night, Li Beichen went to Yongshou Palace early.

The girl with a childish face was sitting on the couch and looking at her boldly, unlike others who were shy and timid.

She has willow eyebrows, big peach blossom eyes, a small cherry mouth, and baby fat on her cheeks. She looks very childish.

Their eyes met, Xie Zhili called out "Uncle" in a childish voice, as if he realized that he was wrong, and quickly called out, "Your Majesty."

Li Beichen had met Xie Zhili once before in the Queen's Palace, when she was still a little girl.

She is still a little girl now. Even wearing the clothes of the harem and concubines.

Logically speaking, before entering the palace, Shangli Bureau arranged for the tutor to go to the Duke Protector's Mansion to teach Xie Zhili the etiquette in the palace and the way to sleep.

Call me uncle when you come up, what kind of operation is the Xie family doing? He is not that kind of pervert, he is a very normal man.

Li Beichen was slightly surprised and asked, "Auntie Xi didn't teach you how to address me?"

Xie Zhili grinned, his eyes like crescent moons, cute and cute, "You should be called the Emperor or Your Majesty."

The sound is as clear and crisp as bamboo shoots springing up after the rain.

Judging from her appearance, she will be a soft-faced beauty from now on.

"Are you hungry?" Li Beichen's voice became soft and patient.

"I'm hungry." Xie Zhili replied shyly but cheerfully.

Li Beichen had dinner with Xie Zhili. Xie Zhili ate happily, looking at Li Beichen with a smile from time to time, frank and innocent.

After dinner, Li Beichen took Xie Zhili out for a walk in the Imperial Garden.

Xie Zhili was a little shy at first, not daring to speak, but then he started chatting and asked questions excitedly, like a vibrant sapling.

Although he is tall, he still looks childish.
