In the ear room, Liu Yunxiang was lying on Nuantao, sweating profusely in pain, but biting his lower lip and not making a sound.

Aunt Su cleaned her wound, applied the medicine, and sighed, "You have only been in the palace for a few days, and your hands were burned again and you were beaten again. Do you have a better memory this time?"

Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "I think it's worth it."

"How to say?"

"The servant saved the good concubine, relieved the Queen Mother's worries, and made the perpetrators punished, so I feel it was worth it."

"You girl really have some courage and some luck, but I still don't understand. Liang Fei's story about saving the emperor in a dream and being bitten by a white snake is really funny, but the emperor seems to believe it.

Yes, why is this?"

Liu Yunxiang secretly stuck out his tongue and said: "I couldn't sleep last night and was wandering around in the back garden. I saw the bright lights at Chengtian Palace, so I sneaked over. I happened to see two little eunuchs looking for something in the grass, and I heard what they said

The emperor had a dream that he was bitten by a white snake. I didn't take it seriously at first, but when I went back, I really saw a white snake in a tree hole, so I made up this story."

After hearing this, Aunt Su couldn't help but shed a cold sweat for Liu Yunxiang, "If the good concubine shrinks back and doesn't dare to do it anymore, what will you do?"

"Then you can only die."

"What are your chances of winning?"

"About sixty percent."

"With only 60%, you dare to gamble?"

"Dare, the chances of winning are great."

"You, you..." Grandma Su was so angry that Liu Yunxiang was speechless.

"You are brave and resourceful!" As the cotton door curtain opened, the Queen Mother walked in. Seeing that Liu Yunxiang's face was pale, but he was smiling happily, she couldn't help but shake her head: "Don't think this is a compliment to you. In the palace, you only have these things.

It’s not enough, I have to be cruel!”

"You are right, Queen Mother." Liu Yunxiang hurriedly complimented.

The Queen Mother shook her head and laughed, "That white snake was not strangled to death by the good concubine at all, it was just knocked unconscious. Just now you let that girl Wanyi release it, right?"

"It's innocent."

"If there is any mistake in the process, all your efforts will be wasted and your life will be lost!"

"Yes, I understand."

The Queen Mother looked at Liu Yunxiang and knew that she looked respectful but had her own ideas.

"There are many princes born in the palace, but only these three or two have grown up. Do you know why?"

Liu Yunxiang silently thought about it, the little Jin Concubine's son was the Ninth Prince, which meant that the Emperor should have nine sons, but right now there are only the Third Prince, the Fourth Prince, Yan Mu and the Ninth Prince, and the other five are all dead.

How did you die?

"All of them died shortly after birth. There were also many concubines who were pregnant but could not keep them due to various reasons, just like Concubine Hui."

"Your Majesty, you can see clearly."

"But I can't control it."

"Why?"

"I told you that this battle in the harem is also a continuation of the factional struggle in the front court, so various forces are intertwined, and I am powerless."

Liu Yunxiang understood, just like there was Prince Suping behind the Queen, and Prince Suping was deeply involved with Marquis Wu, but it was not certain that Marquis Wu was on the Queen's side.

Behind the little golden concubine is Dongchang and Yan Mu, the dead dog, but Shangguan Xu, the governor of Dongchang, and Yan Mu love each other as father and son, but Yan Mu still tells her again and again not to trust anyone in Dongchang.

There are also people behind other concubines, so the struggle between women in the harem often depends on the interests of all parties involved and who has a stronger backing.

"Jin You was able to rise from a nobleman to a concubine, successfully give birth to the ninth prince, and remain favored by the emperor. Of course, it is because of the power behind her, but her mind, means, and strategies are also absolutely outstanding. If you have offended Jin You, go to

You have to be even more careful in this palace from now on."

"Yunxiang knows."

As soon as they finished speaking, someone from Feifeng Palace came and gave Liu Yunxiang many fine supplements and some gold and silver jewelry as a reward.

Liu Yunxiang looked at these things and couldn't help but feel a little headache, "Is the Queen trying to win over me?"

The Queen Mother smiled, "The person she wants to win over is Yan Mu."

"But Yan Mu is from Little Concubine Jin's side, so she can't win her over, right?"

"Oh, this kid is very clumsy. He will mess up everyone's situation. Dongchang has suffered losses in his hands. Especially after the battle at Zhenbeiguan, he has a deeper mind and no one can guess it."

Liu Yunxiang exhaled. According to the development of the previous life, Yan Mu supported the little golden concubine and eventually raised the Ninth Prince to the throne. Maybe others could not see clearly, but she knew it too well.

Wan Yi was sent by Aunt Su to take care of her. The little palace maid now admires her very much. Her eyes are full of stars when she looks at her, and she is even more attentive and considerate when taking care of her.

"Sister Yunxiang, the other palace maids know that you rescued the good concubine from the cold palace and even got punished. They admire you very much and think you are a very good person. They also asked me to apologize for them, saying that they wrongly blamed you before.

"

"Please help me tell them that this matter is over. From now on, everyone in Luohan Palace must understand and help each other."

"Sister is right!"

Liu Yunxiang thought to herself that she had won a lot of people's hearts in this battle, which would come in handy.

At this time, a dog barked outside: "Woof woof! Woof woof woof!"

Wanyi exclaimed: "We don't have dogs in Luohan Palace."

The corners of Liu Yunxiang's mouth twitched, "Wanyi, I'm fine now. You can go back and rest."

"I have to watch over you at night."

"No, you stay with me, I can't sleep."

Wanyi nodded, "Okay then, I'll come over early tomorrow morning."

"Um."

Wanyi walked by, and sure enough, after a while, the door quietly opened, and a figure sneaked in. He turned around and looked around before closing the door.

"Why are you so sneaky?"

Yan Mu walked under the lamp and said, "The prince who builds a palace outside the palace cannot stay in the palace overnight. I sneaked in by pretending to be a eunuch."

Liu Yunxiang took a look and saw that they were really eunuch's clothes. He couldn't help but smile and said, "You're a pretty good-looking little eunuch."

"You can still laugh?"

Yan Mu stepped forward and lifted her quilt directly. When he saw the injuries on her back, his eyes turned red with anger.

"You will come out of the palace with me tomorrow!"

Liu Yunxiang pulled Yan Mu over and said, "Please lie down with me for a while."

Yan Mu hummed, took off his shoes and got on the kang, got into the bed with Liu Yunxiang, and the two of them lay side by side.

"I was beaten twenty times."

"snort!"

"Jin You was beaten fifty."

"..."

"Who do you feel sorry for more?"

Yan Mu was silent for a long time and said honestly: "I feel heartbroken."

"Oh, then who feels more distressed?"

"The left palm hurts just as much as the right palm."

Liu Yunxiang tilted her head and leaned against Yan Mu. This answer was true, but she was not angry. As Jin You said, her relationship with Yan Mu was deeper than that between him and their parents. Such feelings are not so easy to shake.

, but it was her he was looking at secretly.

"Don't provoke her in the future." Yan Mu said.

"She is clearly the one provoking me!"

"If the same thing happens, I will remind her."

"Hmph, you are impartial, but she harmed me first, so what can I say?"

"I asked her to apologize to you."

"Okay, I'll wait."

Yan Mu tilted his head and looked at Liu Yunxiang. Seeing that she was a little haggard, he hugged her and kissed her sadly, "It's not just because of my friendship with her, but also because we are on the same boat with her now. Do you understand?"

Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "You don't understand."

"What?"

"You two are in the same boat, but I am not."

Yan Mu frowned, "You and I are not of the same mind?"
