In October, the war in the northwest was settled and Nian Gengyao returned to Beijing in glory.

Yinzhen specially invited Nian Gengyao and Concubine Hua to dine together in the Yangxin Palace.

At the banquet, Nian Gengyao was repeatedly disrespectful to Yinzhen, and even asked the imperial steward Su Peisheng to serve him the food personally.

You should know that Su Peisheng only served Yinzhen.

Nian Gengyao actually dared to let Su Peisheng serve him. What would Yinzhen think?

Are you, Nian Gengyao, coveting my throne? !

Yinzhen was full of anger, and after Nian Gengyao and Concubine Hua left, he started to fight in the Yangxin Palace.

Later, I still felt unsatisfied and wanted to vent on the bed.

Thinking of Yi Xin who was becoming more and more beautiful after giving birth, Yinzhen went straight to Yongshou Palace.

In Yongshou Palace, Yi Xin was lying on the Luohan bed, with her legs crossed and bare feet, eating the oranges that Lian Qiao had peeled for her while reading a storybook. She was so engrossed that she didn't even notice that Yinzhen had come in.

Yinzhen couldn't stand her carefree attitude, so he snatched the book from her hand and started reading it himself, which scared Yi Xin.

"Your Majesty, why are you here?"

"Why? I can't come? If I hadn't come, I wouldn't have known that you were living such a good life."

Yi Xin smiled and said, "It's because of the Emperor's hard work in the front court that I can enjoy my life in the harem."

Even though it was flattery, Yinzhen felt particularly comfortable hearing it, and he was not as depressed as before. Seeing her eyes always on the storybook, he picked it up and continued reading, and found that the title of the book on the cover was "The Romantic Young Master and the Pretty Nun".

Yinzhen was speechless, "How dare you watch such vulgar things?"

Yi Xin put her hands on her hips and retorted, "Vulgar? How is it vulgar? This storybook is very interesting! It's not what the emperor thinks. The young man is just handsome but not really handsome, and the nun is not a real nun, but a lay disciple with long hair. The reason for choosing this name is probably to attract people to read it."

She spread out her fair and slender hands and pretended to be pitiful, "Your Majesty, I haven't finished reading it yet, please give it back to me!"

Yinzhen got angry and refused to give you whatever you wanted. He turned around and started reading from the first page.

Not to mention, Baozhu's writing style is really good. At least the beginning is very fascinating and even fascinated Yinzhen.

Yi Xin moved closer quietly and watched with him.

Yinzhen found out but didn't care. Yi Xin came closer and closer, and finally, feeling tired, she lay on Yinzhen's back and put her head on his shoulder, watching with great interest.

Finally we saw the key part, Linglong was rescued by the young master, who introduced her to the lives of ordinary people.

Then Yi Xin felt that Yinzhen's breathing was getting heavier and his chest was rising and falling more and more.

Suddenly, Yinzhen stood up so fast that Yi Xin almost fell.

Yinzhen then remembered that there was someone on his back, so he quickly helped Yixin up and asked her, suppressing his anger: "Your storybook is very interesting. Was it also sent by the Fucha family?"

Yi Xin nodded blankly, "Yes, mother sends me new storybooks every month. This month, she sent me eight books. I have read three of them. This is the fourth one."

Seeing that Yinzhen looked unhappy, he asked cautiously, "No, can't I watch it?"

Yinzhen asked: "Did you find anything wrong with the writing of this book?"

Yi Xin blinked, "What's wrong? I didn't notice it. I just started reading it not long ago. Then I followed you. You turned the pages too fast. My eyes couldn't follow you."

Suddenly she opened her eyes wide in horror, "Your Majesty, this isn't some banned book, is it?!"

She was so scared that she was shaking all over, and her tears were about to fall. "Your Majesty, my mother is not as knowledgeable as I am. It must not be intentional! Please don't--"

"That's enough!" Yinzhen quickly stopped her. He thought for a short while, and her thoughts almost flew away.

"That's not what I meant. I just think this book is well written. I like it very much. I want to take it back and read it."

"So that's how it is." Yi Xin breathed a sigh of relief and quickly stopped crying. "Then Your Majesty, take it back and read it. Remember to return it to me after you finish reading it. I will be very worried if I don't know the rest of the story."

"Okay, I'll have someone give it to you after I've finished reading it. I have something else to do in the Yangxin Palace, so I'll leave first."

"Your Majesty, I respectfully send you off!"

After Yinzhen left, Yi Xin suddenly thought of something.

She couldn't remember the exact time, but it should have been from the end of the second year of Yongzheng's reign to the middle of the third year of Yongzheng's reign. In order to confuse Nian Gengyao, Yinzhen made Concubine Hua a noble concubine. Yi Xin didn't want to pay homage to her at that time, so she decided to have a few children to reserve the position of noble concubine.

Yinzhen had been accompanying Concubine Hua these days. He finally found some time and came to Yixin's place. Yixin decisively swallowed three fertility pills.

Yi Xin had just taken the fertility pill, and less than half a month had passed when an epidemic broke out in Yikun Palace. Yi Xin secretly hated herself for having a stupid brain as she actually forgot such an important thing.

She immediately ordered the guards to wear white cotton scarves on their faces and block the gate of Yiku Palace. Only people could enter but not leave. If anyone violated the order, they would be killed directly without having to report it.

Concubine Hua was stunned on the spot, and Concubine Cao staggered in fear.

Concubine Hua was discussing with Noble Lady Cao about sending the tea set of the eunuch in Yiku Palace who had contracted the plague to Shen Meizhuang in Xianfu Palace, so that she would die of the plague.

Liu Bin, who diagnosed Shen Meizhuang's pregnancy pulse, simply packed up and ran away when the fake pregnancy was exposed.

Concubine Hua was afraid that he would be caught and then expose them.

Therefore, the best way is for Shen Meizhuang to die so that there is no evidence.

The two of them had discussed the matter, but before they could implement it, they were locked up.
