At this moment, Zhen Huan only wanted to find out what other harms Huanbi had suffered. In the future, she would make the person behind the scenes pay her back one by one.

Prince Guo saw that Zhen Huan was so persistent and he had no way to stop her. Given her personality, she would definitely want to see what was going on.

As Prince Guo loosened his hand, Zhen Huan lifted all the quilts and saw Huanbi lying in a pool of blood. She had been stabbed dozens of times in the abdomen. The blood had turned brown and was somewhat coagulated.

Zhen Huan clenched her fists, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes.

"I must find the real murderer and make him pay a heavy price." Zhen Huan was extremely angry at this moment. For Huanbi and Shen Meiyu, and for herself, she was determined to tear the person behind the scenes into pieces.

Inside Shen Meizhuang's house

Zhen Huan stood at the door of Shen Meizhuang's room and sorted out her emotions. She couldn't let her sadness be brought to Shen Meizhuang again, because she knew that Shen Meizhuang's body and mind had suffered an extreme blow at this moment.

Cui Jinxi had just filled the bathtub with hot water and walked out of the room.

Cui Jinxi saw that Zhen Huan looked much more haggard than before she went to see Huanbi, and seemed to have suffered a heavy blow. She knew that her master was upset.

"My lady, the hot water for bathing is ready. I will call Caiyue to come and give Shen Da Ying a bath."

"No need. Sister Mei was overly frightened by the assassin last night and is feeling a little weak now. I thought of giving her a bath to relax her body and mind. I can help Sister Mei and you and A Jin just need to guard the door." Zhen Huan said slowly.

"Let Doctor Wen prescribe some medicine for Shen Da Ying now. Maybe she will get better faster." Cui Jinxi suggested.

Zhen Huan nodded and said, "Well, later."

Then Zhen Huan walked into the room. She saw Shen Meizhuang lying on the bed, staring blankly in one direction, tears silently flowing from the corners of her eyes. Her painful look made Zhen Huan feel very distressed.

"Sister Mei, let me help you take a bath. What happened last night is only known to you and me. Don't worry, I will never let anyone else know. When the time comes, I will just say that you were threatened by an assassin in the middle of the night and were overly frightened. Please believe me, okay?" Zhen Huan said to Shen Meizhuang in a gentle voice.

Shen Meizhuang slowly turned her gaze towards Zhen Huan, "Huan'er, I don't want to live anymore."

"Sister Mei, you must understand that if you choose to commit suicide now, it will play into the hands of those evil villains! Even if you really feel that you can't live anymore, you must wait until the evil person who hurt you and the mastermind behind him are found before you seek justice for yourself!"

Zhen Huan's words were so powerful that they seemed to be able to penetrate one's soul.

Shen Meizhuang has always had a strong and resolute personality. When she heard Zhen Huan's words, she suddenly woke up as if from a dream.

Yes, how could she give up her life so easily? She had to find out the real culprit and the villain who raped her! So, she obediently followed Zhen Huan's advice, stood up with difficulty, and slowly walked towards the bathtub.

Zhen Huan quickly stepped forward to support her, and carefully and meticulously helped her wipe her body.

Shen Meizhuang tried her best to wash away the humiliation on her body, but because she was too excited, she rubbed too hard and rubbed her skin red.

Seeing this, Zhen Huan hurriedly advised: "Sister Mei, don't torture yourself like this..." While comforting Shen Meizhuang softly, she continued to serve her bathing and washing with all her heart.

At this time, Zhen Huan had not yet told Shen Meiyu about Huanbi's murder, for fear that she would feel even more upset and panic after knowing it.

The owner of the inn felt that it was unlucky because Zhen Huan and others stayed in his inn and someone died in his inn. He thought it would affect his business and was very angry. He demanded compensation from them and asked them to check out immediately.

Prince Guo coaxed the innkeeper for a long time with a nice voice and gave him three times the money for the room. For the sake of the money, the innkeeper calmed down a little and reluctantly agreed that they must check out in the afternoon.

Gyeongin Palace

Queen Yizhen was writing, feeling a little nervous at the moment, as the brush in her hand just couldn't write smoothly. Director Zhou had just reported to her about last night's mission.

The first thing she wanted to write when she woke up in the morning was the word "喜", and she was waiting for Director Zhou to come back and tell her that Zhen Huan's matter had been resolved satisfactorily.

But the reality went against her wishes. She had never been so disappointed with Jay Chou before.

But today she was told that she had killed the wrong person. She had mistakenly killed the maidservant beside Zhen Huan, but did not kill Zhen Huan. This really made her very angry.

As long as Zhen Huan is alive, she cannot get rid of the hatred in her heart. It is difficult to assassinate her in the palace, and she has not succeeded in assassinating her outside the palace. Unexpectedly, there is a group of highly skilled and hidden guards protecting her.

She really couldn't believe how Zhen Huan had the ability to hire a group of highly skilled secret guards to protect her.

She was so angry that she crossed out the half-written character "喜" (happiness) with a big cross and threw the brush directly onto the rice paper.

"Hmph~ Good Lady Wan, you are so capable. I admire you very much. Since I failed to kill you this time, you are lucky. I have plenty of opportunities..." The queen's voice was cold and chilling.

At this moment, Jianqiu hurriedly walked in from outside the door, her expression a little complicated.

After she calmed down a bit, she reported to the Queen, "Your Majesty, I just went to inquire and found out that the Emperor has not yet gotten up."

When the queen heard this, a strong feeling of jealousy suddenly surged up in her heart, quickly flooding her heart and lungs like a tide.

She could never have imagined that the little An Da Ying had such great charm that the emperor would give up going to court for her today.

You know, the emperor has always been known for his diligence in government affairs and his concern for the people. Since he ascended the throne, he has never declined to attend the morning court because of a concubine.

Thinking of this, a ferocious smile appeared on the corner of the queen's mouth.

She thought to herself: Since you are no longer useful, don't blame me for being cruel.

The day before: Hall of Mental Cultivation

Ever since Shen Meizhuang was exiled and Zhen Huan left, the emperor couldn't help feeling a little lonely. He always felt like something was missing in his heart. To be honest, these two concubines were very much in the emperor's favor.

In the emperor's heart, Shen Meizhuang is well-educated, gentle and virtuous, and it is very comfortable to be with her.

Zhen Huan looks similar to Chun Yuan. She is intelligent and understands what he is thinking. She is not like other concubines who always act pretentiously. Being with her is as fun as that of an ordinary couple.

But that day, Zhen Huan accidentally invited the Emperor to sleep in the Yanxi Palace, which gave him another kind of fun.

An Lingrong's unique charm and style were like a fire that ignited the desire deep in the emperor's heart.

Her sexual skills were skillful and ingenious, which touched her heartstrings and brought the emperor an unprecedented novel feeling.

This unique experience intoxicated the emperor and he couldn't help himself.

At this moment, the emperor remembered that An Lingrong had been frightened by a ghost a few days ago and had been weak and haggard.

Out of pity, he decided to go and visit her and rest there.

"Su Peisheng!" The emperor sat on the dragon couch, put down the book in his hand and shouted.

"I'm here." Su Peisheng stepped forward immediately after hearing the emperor's call.

"Go to the Yanxi Palace!" the emperor said and stood up.

Su Peisheng thought to himself that the blessing that An had promised had arrived.

Yanxi Palace

"The Emperor has arrived!" an eunuch shouted from far outside the palace gate.

When An Lingrong heard that the emperor was coming, she immediately went out to greet him.

Today, An Lingrong was wearing a green brocade dress, the color of which was like the tender leaves of early spring, fresh and elegant. The brocade dress was soft and smooth, with exquisite patterns embroidered on it.

This green brocade dress is simple and elegant yet exquisite, perfectly setting off An Lingrong's gentleness and dignity, making her stand out from the crowd. It was made of brocade that Zhen Huan gave her before leaving the palace.

When the emperor stepped into An Lingrong's bedroom, he was greatly surprised by the scene before him - An Lingrong was radiant, like a beautiful blooming flower, exuding charming fragrance.

The emperor couldn't help but be overwhelmed by her, and a strong impulse surged in his heart.

"Are you feeling better lately, An? I promised you that I would come to see you, and I am here today." The emperor's face was flushed with peach blossoms, and his smile became more and more intense.

"Your Majesty, thank you for your concern. I am feeling better now. I even went to the Imperial Garden to relax. I thought that walking around more and getting some sun would help me get better faster and serve Your Majesty sooner."

An Lingrong looked at the emperor carefully from time to time, and said softly in a delicate voice, "She was just pretending to be sick. The previous prescriptions were all written by Doctor Wen before he left. They were harmless to the body and were just some tonics that could nourish the body."

"Well, I can see that you are indeed better. An promised that you look very good today. This green dress is especially suitable for your fair skin. Come, come and sit next to me."

As he spoke, the emperor stretched out his hand to motion An Lingrong to come over.

An Lingrong walked towards the emperor with light steps, her skirt floating gently, like a fairy dancing.

As soon as An Lingrong sat down, Su Peisheng suddenly came into the room and said:
