Back at Suiyuxuan, Shen Meimei couldn't sleep again. She was thinking about how to create opportunities for Prince Guo and Zhen Huan. As long as both of them wanted to be together, she would add fuel to the fire and help them find a way to escape from the palace, which would be considered as helping them get together.

Shen Meimei thought about it and thought that helping Zhen Huan and Prince Guo would be tantamount to cuckolding the emperor. Wouldn't this be morally wrong?

So she decided to ask Ding Dong. According to the summoning method, she tapped her forehead three times, and the system Ding Dong was summoned immediately:

"Host, what's wrong? Why do you summon me so late at night?"

Shen Meimei said helplessly:

"Ding Dong, is it true that the system tasks cannot be changed? Would it be wrong to help Zhen Huan and Prince Guo?"

System Ding Dong thought for a moment and said:

"Host, you think too much. Remember Aunt Qiong Yao once said that love is the greatest! The emperor has so many beauties in his harem, and one less Zhen Huan is not a big deal! The mission cannot be changed. The mission deadline is within six months. There will be rewards for completing it ahead of schedule. Host, come on!"

Shen Meimei had no choice but to be forced to accept the system task. She calculated that in half a year, Moge would be going to Beijing.

After thinking about many things, Shen Meimei's eyelids were already fighting each other. Finally, she could not hold on any longer and fell asleep.

The next day, Caiyue came in and reported, "My lady, I heard that the emperor was keeping vigil for the empress dowager last night and fell ill! He is currently recuperating in the Yangxin Palace. Would you like to go and see him?"

Shen Meimei recalled the emperor's comfort to her yesterday. She quickly got up, put on her clothes, and rushed to the Yangxin Palace.

As soon as I entered, I saw Zhen Huan talking to the Fourth Prince Hongli.

Hongli held the ginseng soup and said anxiously:

"Mother, I heard that the Emperor was heartbroken and sick, and I was worried. I specially prepared some ginseng soup and came to see the Emperor!"

Zhen Huan was not impatient, she stretched out her hand to pull Hongli to sit down and said:

“The emperor has the imperial physician watching over him, so it’s okay!

It's you that your mother is worried about. The weather is hot now, but you insist on keeping vigil and even fainted several times.

Right now, you are the most sensible child in the eyes of the emperor. If you don't stand guard in front of the empress dowager's spirit for the emperor, how much gossip will you receive?

Mother is watching over here, don't worry, just go and guard the Queen Mother's coffin."

Hongli suddenly realized what was going on when he heard this. He put down the ginseng soup and hurried out. He happened to meet Shen Meimei and bowed to her, saying:

"Greetings to Empress Hui!"

Shen Meimei nodded as a greeting.

When Zhen Huan saw Shen Meimei coming in, she did not stand up from her seat, but said indifferently:

"Sister cried so hard in front of the coffin yesterday that she fainted. The emperor felt sorry for her and asked her to rest in Suiyu Pavilion. How come she fainted again in just half a day?"

Although Shen Meimei was a time traveler, she could still hear the thorn in Zhen Huan's words.

"Huan'er, I heard from the palace maid that the emperor was ill, so I came to see him!" Shen Meimei explained.

Zhen Huan slowly stood up. In her heart, Mei Zhuang did not care about the emperor. Since giving birth to the child, Mei Zhuang suddenly learned medicine and cared more about the emperor. What was going on?

She walked to Shen Meimei, looked at her carefully, and suddenly said:

"Sister is complaining? Right?"

Shen Meimei's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Zhen Huan knew how to read minds? She did not agree with Zhen Huan's poisoning of Meng Jingxian, but she would not blame her.

"Huan'er, why do you say that? You and I have been sisters for many years, why would we become estranged because of one thing?" Shen Meimei asked back.
