After Yu Ying'er's rebirth, she became addicted to teasing Concubine Hua

Chapter 70 Asking the Taoist Priest to Perform a Ritual

The emperor was furious when he saw the unrepentant Concubine Yu. He thought that she was just a small lucky charm and dared to think that she was his master. He couldn't help but sneer, "Haha, what did you do wrong... Concubine Yu Borjigit is extremely vicious. She is not worthy of being a woman, let alone a mother! Pass on my oral order to demote Concubine Yu to a concubine, strip her of her title, and confine her to Zhongcui Palace. She cannot leave without being summoned."

Now the emperor is popular among the people and full of confidence. He has no good face when dealing with Concubine Yu sent by Korchin. After all, he is not a son-in-law. All his tricks are learned in the battle for the throne. He can deal with Korchin with ease.

Yupin, oh no... Ji Da looked at the emperor in confusion and couldn't help but said, "Your Majesty treats me like this, I don't know what to say. I just want to ask your Majesty if there is a credible and fair way."

"Hmph, I only know that what I say is fair. It is not your turn as a mere promise to point fingers at me. Hurry up and get someone to drag Ji away. Don't let him appear in front of me again!" The emperor glared at him. If it weren't for his good upbringing, he would have been frozen.

"Hmm..." Following Su Peisheng's "Hmm...", several eunuchs immediately came forward to ask Ji to agree to return to the palace, but... Ji was stubborn and still stared at the emperor with a hurt look, as if she was the emperor's wife who had been let down.

The young eunuchs felt a little embarrassed when they saw that Ji agreed not to leave. It was not until the emperor had him dragged away that the environment in Sui Yuxuan became much better. However, the screams coming from the delivery room made the emperor annoyed again.

The irritated emperor could not help but glance back and forth at the faces of the concubines, as if he wanted to see if there were any vicious people in his harem. However, he inadvertently saw Concubine Qi who was in a guilty state, and she could not help but lean towards the queen, frowning even more.

"Wow wow wow..."

Just as the emperor was becoming suspicious, the child in the house was finally born, and a weak baby cry was heard, as weak as the cry of a sick cat.

Soon, the midwife came out holding the washed and swaddled baby, and immediately knelt down to congratulate, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations, Your Majesty, Concubine Wan has given birth to a little princess, and now both mother and daughter are safe."

"Okay, give them all as rewards." Although the emperor hated Zhen Huan, he was still quite patient with his own children. However, he was still somewhat slow to treat the child because of Zhen Huan. This reward was nothing more than one month's salary or doubled wages, which was the lowest rate.

The child was born successfully, it was a princess, Zhen Huan was also safe, and Concubine Qi breathed a sigh of relief for some reason, not knowing that all her little actions were seen by the emperor. In her heart, she was still glad that she was not exposed.

The emperor snorted coldly, and did not pick up the child. Instead, he turned and left. He should go check his harem. Why were all of them so vicious and only cared about harming children?

After returning to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, the emperor could not wait to order Xia Qian to investigate all the concubines in the harem. He wanted to find out everything, even their family secrets. He would not leave the matter untouched until everything was thoroughly investigated.

Xia Qian said yes and was about to leave when the emperor came with another order.

"By the way, Concubine Rou has no family, so there is no need to investigate. I know Concubine Rou's character best." When the emperor said this, he was very proud, as if he was the only one proud of Yu Ying'er.

Xia Qian reluctantly responded with "yes" and then left the Yangxin Palace to do the task assigned to him by the Emperor.

Zhen Huan tried her best to give birth to a daughter, but the girl was sickly and pitiful, and even died young because of poor childbirth and care. This really distressed Zhen Huan, and she disliked An Lingrong even more. She went to ask the Queen for help, hoping that the Queen could help find a Taoist priest who could exorcise the evil spirits in her body.

Except for Shen Meizhuang, she had never told anyone that the so-called evil creature was An Lingrong, not even Liu Zhu and the others. She only said that she was possessed by the evil creature in her dream that day, which led her to do all kinds of wrong things. Now she has repented and is sober, and she should find a way to get rid of the evil creature in her body. Then she should worship Buddha every day in Sui Yuxuan, often accompanied by green lamps and ancient Buddhas, to wash away the resentment in her body.

This is really a nice thing to say, but Nian Shilan has not been removed from the palace yet, and there is also Concubine Rou who repeatedly tests the Queen's bottom line. How can Yixiu allow Zhen Huan to retreat behind the scenes like this? She can only persuade her kindly.

"It turns out that Wanpin did those incomprehensible things before because she was possessed by evil spirits. This makes sense. How can such evil spirits be allowed to run rampant in this palace? I will report this matter to the emperor. However, Wanpin is so young now, how can she always be with the green lamp and ancient Buddha and waste her time?" Yixiu looked as if she felt sorry for Zhen Huan and didn't want Zhen Huan to suffer any injustice. With that hypocritical smile, it really seemed like that.

Zhen Huan knew what the Queen was planning and was afraid that she would not let her escape easily. However, as long as the Queen agreed to help her get rid of the evil spirit, then her trip here would not be in vain.

Thinking of this, Zhen Huan immediately knelt down to thank her: "Thank you for your consideration, Queen. I will go back to Sui Yu Xuan and wait for your good news."

"Then you should go back quickly. You are still in confinement and cannot be exposed to the cold wind. Jianqiu, take my cloak to Wanpin and send her back." After Yixiu gave the order, she saw Zhen Huan thank her and leave the palace. Her good disguise disappeared immediately. "Huichun, you also heard what happened just now. You should report to the emperor. I will not go."

Yixiu felt like she had a headache again. She loved the emperor, but he repeatedly rejected her. She was sad and angry. And every time she saw that almost every concubine in the palace had her own children, and that the emperor was happy for these children and doted on them, she would frequently see Honghui in her dreams, and experience the dream of him dying in her arms again and again. She would wake up with a start, sweating profusely, and her pillow would still be soaked with tears.

She couldn't bear this, she would definitely make all the emperor's children be buried with her Honghui.

……

When the emperor in the Yangxin Palace heard the story about ghosts and gods, he frowned. He originally wanted to scold the palace maid who came to report it, but in an instant he remembered the many differences between Zhen Huan before and after, and his face suddenly darkened.

He felt unhappy when he thought about how he had been served by an evil ghost and how he had been contaminated by such an evil thing and how his dragon energy had been polluted.

"Su Peisheng, go to Nanyuan Yuanling Palace and invite Miao Zheng Zhenren to perform a ritual to drive away the evil spirits for the palace, so that people in the palace will not panic when they learn about this." After thinking it over again and again, the emperor decided to invite a respected Taoist priest to exorcise the evil spirits. It is better to believe it than not. Sometimes it is better to be prepared in advance.

Su Peisheng responded and withdrew, and immediately instructed the Ministry of Internal Affairs to go to the Nanyuan Palace to pick up Miao Zheng Zhenren and his disciples to enter the palace to prepare for the ritual.

The fifth prince Hong Zhou was finally brought into the palace on the day before New Year's Eve. He looked thin and small, and really pitiful. The first thing he did after entering the palace was to pay his respects to the emperor. Then everyone knew about Concubine Yu's "tragic death" in the Lishui Palace, and they all sighed.
