Quick Wear: Saving the Sickly and Paranoid Villain

I don’t know when it started, but some rumors began to spread outside the palace walls.

I heard that Sixth Prince Lu Yu was not the culprit behind the Qiu Lie assassination, but a plot planned by the current emperor who had taken a liking to the Sixth Prince's wife.

The Sixth Princess was also shameless and had already thrown herself into the arms of the Emperor without the Sixth Prince's knowledge.

Although the emperor had never been interested in women before, given his previous cruelty, it didn't seem strange that he would forcibly seize his subjects' wives.

There are also rumors that the Sixth Princess was dissatisfied with the Sixth Prince's constant flirting with other women, and unwilling to be lonely, she deliberately seduced the Emperor, and took the initiative to stir up conflicts between the monarch and his subjects, and finally set up this trap together with the Emperor.

Who wouldn't say that the Sixth Princess is a femme fatale after hearing this?

There are many different stories circulating among the people, but the general meaning is this:

How innocent the Sixth Prince is, how vicious the Sixth Princess is, and how foolish the Emperor is!

The Qingyi Guards noticed this kind of talk as soon as it started.

That day, Qing Yi terrifiedly told Lu Yong about the gossip in the market.

Lu Yong's eyes were deep and he held the cup tightly in his hand. But in just a moment, the fine teacup with engraved patterns had shattered.

"Kill!" A bloodthirsty light flashed in his eyes.

"Yes." Qing Yi accepted the order.

For a moment, blood flowed like a river inside and outside the palace walls, and there were constant cries and wails.

As soon as people hear the three words "Qingyiwei", they will immediately feel creepy.

Such iron-blooded measures do have a certain deterrent effect on those who blindly follow others and enjoy spreading rumors, but it is actually a good thing for those who want to deliberately muddy the waters.

Gu Yi, the leader of the Yilong Sect, immediately realized that this was an opportunity, so he immediately ordered Zuo Hufa to lead the sect members into the city, incite the people's emotions, deepen their hatred, and even make them think about rebelling against the court.

For a time, the people were indignant, and people began to rebel against the imperial court in various places, especially in the Chaobei area where the Dragon Relic Sect was located. Although these people were only sparks at present, Gu Yi believed that these sparks would one day become a prairie fire. And that day would soon come!

Inside the Qinghe Palace, Xu Meir, surrounded by a group of palace maids, came to the most remote garden of the Qinghe Palace. The flowers in the garden were blooming beautifully in groups of three or two, and the cool breeze made people feel very comfortable.

Xu Meir can walk around freely in Qinghe Palace, but she must be accompanied by a palace maid. Outside Qinghe Palace is an absolute restricted area.

Inside the garden, there were many palace maids and eunuchs cleaning and decorating the garden. This garden was really remote and few people had come here since the previous dynasty. Only two or three palace maids and eunuchs were left here to remove the weeds.

The rest of Qinghe Palace is big enough and magnificent enough.

Ever since Xu Meir accidentally wandered here one day, Lu Yong ordered the renovation of the garden. He hoped that every scenery Xu Meir saw after coming to the palace would be beautiful.

Xu Meir walked and stopped, looking very happy. Although the people behind her were puzzled, they could only follow her.

Next to the rockery, a palace maid with a childish face was struggling to flip several iron rings. The iron rings were connected together and seemed inseparable. She frowned and looked very distressed.

Luer followed Xu Meier's line of sight and saw the man who was slacking off and not being polite to Xu Meier. She shouted angrily, "How dare you slack off here?!"

The little maid was panicked and knelt down hurriedly: "Miss, please forgive me, Sister Lu'er, please forgive me, I...I know I was wrong."

Although Xu Meir is no longer the Sixth Prince's Consort and currently has no rank, everyone in Qinghe Palace knows that Xu Meir is the owner of Qinghe Palace. Many palace maids and eunuchs have seen how tenderly the emperor treated Xu Meir.

Everyone knows that Xu Meir will one day become the legitimate master of Qinghe Palace.

In Qinghe Palace, everyone called Xu Meir "Miss". Although this title was unreasonable for Xu Meir, who was already married, they still called her that. After all, the emperor's most trusted guard Qing and steward Li both called Xu Meir that.

Everyone also respectfully calls Lu'er, who is beside Xu Meir, Sister Lu'er.

"What are you doing?" Xu Meir looked at the rings connected together and asked curiously.

"My lady, this thing is called the Nine-Ring Chain. I am trying to find a way to untie it, but unfortunately I am too stupid and I haven't been able to untie it after a long time." The little palace maid said with a distressed look on her face.

"It's okay, just continue solving it. Get up." Xu Meir stared at the Nine Rings with a melancholy look on her face.

"Yes." The little palace maid stood up and carefully looked at Xu Meir's expression. Then she asked hesitantly, "Miss, do you want to try this Nine Rings? It's very interesting."

"How bold! This thing is simply an eyesore to the young lady!" Luer said angrily.

"I was wrong, please forgive me!" The little palace maid knelt down anxiously again, her voice trembling with fear.

"No need to be polite," Xu Meir said, "I'm just a little curious. Can we go there to solve this problem?" Xu Meir pointed to the pavilion not far away.

"Miss, how can you play with such an ugly thing? If you want, you can ask His Majesty to give you something better!" Lu'er obviously looked down on the simple nine-ring chain made of iron.

"But, what I want is this nine-ring chain."

"Miss~" Lu'er was puzzled.
