An Lingrong's Rebirth: Red

"But this is a grave crime of confiscation of property and extermination of the entire clan!"

Shen Meizhuang protected her belly. Because she had a miscarriage a few days ago, she no longer dared to walk around freely, and even when she was emotional, she didn't dare to make big movements.

But Zhen Huan was very calm and was not frightened at all by the words "property confiscated and clan exterminated".

She just looked at Shen Meizhuang indifferently until Shen Meizhuang's emotions stabilized and she was able to talk to her in a calm tone.

"I don't believe you dare to do this alone." Shen Meizhuang gritted her teeth, lowered her voice, and looked around subconsciously, "Who on earth gave you such courage to do such a thing?!"

"Sister Mei, why would I do such a thing?" Zhen Huan changed her previous indifference and put on a slight smile on her face, "I just knew that someone was going to do this.

Moreover, you and I can take this opportunity to escape from the palace together."

"Escape? The world is so big, where can you and I escape to?"

How could Shen Meizhuang be fooled by just a few words from Zhen Huan? She intuitively felt that Zhen Huan's plan was not as simple as escaping from the palace. She even knew very well in her heart that Zhen Huan had never thought of taking her out of the palace.

Respect other people's choices and predetermined destiny, these are what Zhen Huan often said.

"Sister Mei, sometimes being too smart is not good."

Zhen Huan took another sip of tea. She had actually been thinking about helping Prince Guo and Prince Dun rebel for a long time.

She would not involve her father, but would try her best to invite the emperor into her palace on the night when Prince Guo and others took action.

Then, he would help Prince Guo so that he could enter Yuedi Yunju smoothly.

As the concubine who protected the emperor, she was accidentally "killed" by Prince Guo's knife.

At that anxious moment, the emperor had neither the mind nor the time to verify whether he was really dead or just faking it.

After the emperor was imprisoned, everything was settled. He found a corpse that was unrecognizable and disguised it as his own, and buried it in the concubine's mausoleum through Ji'an.

By that time, I can leave the palace smoothly and live the life I want.

You don't even need to hide, you can walk openly in the sun and enjoy the freedom and happiness that you don't have in the palace.

When the new emperor ascends the throne, he can return home and reunite with his parents.

Although I no longer have the status of the legitimate daughter of the Zhen family, as long as I am still alive, my father and mother will never blame me.

But to achieve all this, we need a helper, and that is the Shen family.

Now the Shen family all belongs to the emperor, and Prince Dun and Prince Guo have been rejected every time they have tried to contact them.

If Shen Meizhuang could persuade Shen's father to drive the current emperor off the throne, it would not be a difficult task.

In the past, I was worried that Shen Meizhuang would not help, but after confirming the relationship between Shen Meizhuang and Wen Shichu, this concern completely disappeared.

In order to save the baby in her belly and the lives of hundreds of people in the Shen family, Shen Meizhuang would never refuse.

"Sister Mei, have you calmed down?"

The two were silent for a long time, and it was Zhen Huan who spoke first, breaking the relative silence.

Seeing Shen Meizhuang nod, Zhen Huan continued, "The matter between elder sister and Doctor Wen will be known to me today, and it may be known to others tomorrow."

Knowing that Shen Meizhuang was worried that she would tell others about their affair, Zhen Huan immediately raised her hand and swore an oath, stating that if she revealed it to the emperor or anyone else, she would be struck by lightning and die.

Shen Meizhuang was still worried, but she also knew that now her handle was in the hands of others, and it was difficult to ask them not to tell others about it.

I just hope that this time Zhen Huan can be a true gentleman who keeps his word, instead of doing something behind my back like she did before.

"Because of the pregnancy, my sister has countless people serving in the palace. Let's not talk about other palace servants for now. Fuling has problems to begin with. If she found out about the abnormality between my sister and Doctor Wen, I'm afraid she would have told the people behind it long ago.

Now it seems peaceful on the surface, but little do people know that undercurrents have been surging beneath the surface. I don’t know when my sister will be dragged into an irretrievable situation.”

Shen Meizhuang felt that she had made all the arrangements very well and that no one would reveal their relationship to others.

But after the incident with Fuling, she did start to get worried, and she didn't even dare to ask Wen Shichu to come over and take her pulse these days.

"Then how did you know?" Did you also arrange spies around me?

Shen Meizhuang did not ask the second half of the sentence, but the look she gave Zhen Huan revealed everything, and Zhen Huan saw it clearly.

"Sister Mei may have forgotten that I am your best sister and the one who is most familiar with Doctor Wen."

When Zhen Huan mentioned the best sisters, she didn't blush at all.

Even if she betrayed Shen Meizhuang, even if she harmed Shen Meizhuang's child.

“Doctor Wen is really not good at hiding his emotions. When he was examining my pulse, he would often mention my sister.

I know he might want to ease the relationship between my sister and me, but the crux of our relationship has always been because of that unforgivable incident.

Sister Mei couldn't possibly have instructed Doctor Wen to ease the relationship between the two of us, so there could only be one reason why Doctor Wen mentioned it over and over again - he wanted to have the best of both of us."

He was unwilling to give up Shen Meizhuang, with whom he had had physical intimacy, nor was he willing to give up Zhen Huan, a woman he truly loved.

Only when Shen Meizhuang forced him with the Question of the Goddess of Luo River did he have to do such an incomprehensible thing.

"Doctor Wen is so easy to understand, isn't he, Sister Mei?"

Shen Meizhuang fell silent again. There were too many things between the two of them. In the past it was the emperor, then it was the child, and now it was Wen Shichu.

She can let go of the emperor now, but Wen Shichu and the child, the two most important people in her heart, have become the hurdle that cannot be crossed. Naturally, she is not willing to open up to Zhen Huan at this time.

"So what do you...or you guys need me to do?"

Seeing that Shen Meizhuang finally got to the point, Zhen Huan finally felt a little excited, but she still pretended to be indifferent on her face, "What I have to do is to persuade Lord Shen to protect himself and not get involved in the struggle for power."

"That's it?"

"That's it." Zhen Huan nodded solemnly. Her tone was relaxed and casual, so Shen Meizhuang didn't think it was a big deal. "Lord Shen can still follow the emperor's orders, but he will just do it a little slower and send the troops a little later."

She was not afraid that Shen Meizhuang would refuse or tell the emperor about it.

After all, it was Shen Meizhuang who was pregnant with someone else's child. In order to ensure a chance of survival for herself and her nine clans, how could she dare to gamble that the emperor didn't know about it?

"I……"

This matter was not a trivial matter, how could Shen Meizhuang agree to Zhen Huan immediately? She frowned, thinking about how to tell her father about this matter.

But my father would definitely ask me why I did such a dangerous thing, and he might even stick to the bottom line of being a loyal subject and scold me harshly.

But this child still has Shichu, how can I abandon him?

Could it be that I really have to tell my father the whole truth and ask him to help Zhen Huan and the others to dethrone the emperor for my sake and for the sake of the Shen family?

This is a capital crime of treason. How could my father, such an upright man, agree to it so easily?

As her daughter, how could I force my father to commit treason for the sake of so-called love?

"Sister Mei."

Zhen Huan knew Shen Meizhuang best, so she naturally discovered her situation immediately. In order to prevent Shen Meizhuang from pushing herself into a desperate situation and doing something that would lead to her losing her life, Zhen Huan had to take the initiative to comfort her.

"Don't get me wrong, sister. I'm not asking Lord Shen to do anything treasonous."

Seeing that Shen Meizhuang's expression had eased, Zhen Huan was relieved, "Lord Shen is still following the emperor's arrangements. The only difference is that you received the news a little slower and acted a little slower.

It is normal for them to be on guard against Lord Shen and even try to stop him because someone is plotting treason.

Even if they fail to accomplish their goal, Lord Shen can still put all the blame on them and clear himself of all responsibility.

Sister Mei, do you understand this time?"

Shen Meizhuang widened her eyes. She looked at Zhen Huan's face and felt that the person in front of her was very unfamiliar.

It turns out that she is such a bold and calculating person.

In the past, they enjoyed poetry and embroidered in the boudoir, but she never showed any signs of it.

I thought we were best sisters, but now it seems that I never really understood her.

"I understand, but this matter is of great importance. I can't make a decision alone. You... let me think about it for a while."

Zhen Huan nodded immediately. Shen Meizhuang was a steady person and would think twice before doing anything.

This time it was a major event involving a change of dynasty, and if she didn't think about it for three to five days, she wouldn't be able to come to any conclusion.

But I can’t give her too much time. The longer it takes, the more disadvantageous it will be for me and Prince Guo. “Sister, you will have to make a choice in just one or two days.

My sister, please remind me to take good care of Fuling. If necessary... I must not be soft-hearted."

Although the words were spoken implicitly, Shen Meizhuang also knew the real intention behind Zhen Huan's words - to find an opportunity to silence Fuling and prevent her secret from being leaked.

It sounds like a cruel method, but it has to be said that it is the most effective one.

What shocked Shen Meizhuang the most was that she had been in the palace for only more than a year, but she had become a person who didn't care about the lives of others at all.

A living life, now in the eyes of himself and Zhen Huan, was like crushing an ant, easy and casual, without causing any ripples in their hearts.

Maybe... Shen Meizhuang comforted herself in her heart. Maybe it was because she heard too many secrets tonight, or maybe it was because Fuling knew too much.

I am not such a cold-blooded person, absolutely not.

The room fell silent again, leaving only the sound of Zhen Huan adding water to her tea.

Shen Meizhuang couldn't sit still any longer, so she made an excuse that it was late at night, slowly stood up and walked to the door.

She held the door open with one hand and turned back to look at Zhen Huan thoughtfully, "Besides you...who else would do this?"

"Sister, why are you asking at this time?" Zhen Huan stood up to see her off. When she heard Shen Meizhuang ask this question, she couldn't help but smile. "Don't you think it's a little too late?"

The door was slightly open, and the wind blew in through the gap. Shen Meizhuang actually felt a chill for a moment.

The two of them just stared at each other silently. After a long time, Zhen Huan walked forward and closed the door tightly.

On the second day, Shuimu Mingse.

Lingrong didn't sleep well the whole night because she was concerned about Fuling's condition.

She originally wanted to not care about Fuling's life or death, but keeping her life was really useful, so she planned to go to the upper and lower sky to discuss with Concubine Tian when it was not so hot outside.

In fact, it can't be considered a discussion, Ling Rong thought silently. Fuling's identity is complicated anyway, and she may not be able to save her life.

"It's not like she's going to lose her life." Concubine Tian frowned and retorted to Ling Rong, "Concubine Hui doesn't look like someone who treats human life as worthless. I think at most she will send Fuling away and let her do some hard work in Yuanmingyuan."

"Lady Hui is not a cruel person," Ling Rong also felt that she might be worrying too much. In fact, even if Fuling really died, it would not have the slightest impact on her, "but..."

"Even if she dies, it's just one less spy.

An Lingrong, when did you become so concerned about a maid's life?

Could it be that this Fuling saved your life?"

Lingrong shook her head slowly. Even though Concubine Tian was a bit brainless, Lingrong still told her her analysis bit by bit.

"In fact, it is not something shameful for the noble Shi to use you to hand over evidence to the emperor.

Even if Concubine Xu finds out through Fuling, it cannot change the fact that she has harmed Concubine Hui. At most, it can make Concubine Hui be wary of you.

Perhaps Lady Xu will bear a grudge against you because of this incident and want to take revenge on you in the future."

Concubine Tian had never seen Zhen Huan's methods, so she was not afraid of her at this moment, "What are you afraid of? If you want to deal with me, just come on.

I want to see whether Concubine Xu is more capable or I am more capable!"

But the problem is, Noble Tian, ​​you have neither the means nor the ability.

Lingrong mocked silently in her heart. She looked at Concubine Tian's smug face and ultimately could not tell the truth.

"Of course I believe in your methods, sir, but...

I am worried that Concubine Xu has found out something else through Fuling, something about Concubine Hui."

"What could possibly happen to Concubine Hui? Could it be that the baby in her belly is not the emperor's?"

Unexpectedly, Concubine Tian could hit the nail on the head. Lingrong immediately looked at her with admiration and secretly gave her a thumbs up in her heart.

“I haven’t found out what it is yet, but it’s very likely to be something big that brings the two of them together on the same boat again.

I want to... destroy the boat."
