"If Liu Zhensheng is forced to rebel, we can take the opportunity to completely solve the hidden danger. Otherwise... the court will become even more turbid. The Liu family's roots are huge and complicated. The Zhang family, Sima family, and other families are all dependent on the Liu family. Yes, if Liu Zhen is still alive, we cannot touch these people easily."

Shen Ning remembered that in the previous life, when Xiao Chengyin ascended the throne as emperor, the Liu family and the people from these big families joined forces to get rid of the Prime Minister's Mansion and several families loyal to the late emperor.

When the trees fall and the hozens scatter, and the late emperor dies, the world will be dominated by these people.

Once the emperor and the court officials, after Xiao Chengyin came to power, these people became even more arrogant. In the third year after the death of the late emperor, there was a severe drought in Jizhou. Xiao Chengyin instigated the Sima family and the Zhang family to start an internal conflict. The two families fought internally without caring about the lives of the people. In the end, tens of thousands of victims suffered from starvation. Death, corpses everywhere.

During that time, the entire Qin State was a hell on earth. The victims fled out of the country in large numbers and fled to neighboring countries in order to survive. Upon seeing this, the neighboring countries launched an attack on the Qin State.

Suddenly, there were internal and external troubles.

Even Liu Zhensheng was restrained.

This is the power of Xiao Chengyin.

After rebirth, Shen Ning made Xiao Chengyin's plan come to nothing. Now it was Xiao Junhe who sat on the throne. She didn't want Xiao Junhe to have to worry about fighting with these people like Xiao Chengyin.

It would be better to let Liu Zhensheng rebel, expose all his people to death, and catch them all in one fell swoop.

"Then it depends on whether Liu Zhensheng wants to be this rebellious official or a traitor." Xiao Junhe was still a little worried, worried that Liu Zhensheng was not such a stupid person.

"It's not a smart decision for Liu Zhensheng to send Liu Wanying into the palace. He shouldn't be too difficult to deal with." Shen Ning comforted Xiao Junhe. "But Xiao Chengyin is an extremely heavy-minded person and has to be on guard."

What's more, new changes are inevitable.

After being reborn, Shen Ning found that every step she took, if the ending was different from the previous one, something new would happen.

"Fool...you should blame me instead of comforting me." Xiao Junhe smiled. Didn't she mean to blame this little fool at all?

Obviously, he is her husband and the father of her child, but now he is just a puppet with no real power, and he cannot even save the child.

"Although the Queen Mother is vicious, she was not like this before. My father said...she was once kind in nature, but he was unable to protect her kindness. And...she likes children, so she cares about my belly so much. The child in her, besides treating her as a puppet, she still has some real feelings, can you tell?"

Shen Ning smiled, obviously she was very weak, but she still held Xiao Junhe's finger.

Xiao Junhe kissed Shen Ning on the forehead. "Yes."

When Shen Ning said this, he felt more comfortable...

"Ning'er, I won't keep you waiting too long."

Shen Ning nodded. "I'll wait for you."

…

Shen Ning gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, which was a great achievement in the harem.

The Queen Mother personally issued an order to promote Shen Ning as a noble concubine.

All the concubines in the palace turned red with envy.

In the Qin State, there could be multiple concubines in the harem, but there were only three noble concubines, and the higher ones were the imperial concubine and the queen.

If the queen does not establish an imperial concubine, the imperial concubine will have the same position as the deputy concubine. Unless the queen makes a serious mistake, the position of the imperial concubine will be empty.

In the absence of a queen, the concubine has the highest status.

This is also the reason why Liu Wanying was arrogant from the beginning.

As for Shen Ning, she now has the same status as Liu Wanying and is on an equal footing.

Obviously, the Queen Mother did this on purpose.

Shen Ning was deliberately brought to this position to confront Liu Wanying.

As for Liu Wanying, for the sake of her aunt and nephew, it is impossible for the Queen Mother to kill her as long as she is obedient.

…

Changchun Palace.

Liu Wanying angrily smashed the objects on the table and angrily complained that all the palace maids and eunuchs outside the door had been replaced by the Queen Mother's people. It was obvious that the Queen Mother was trying to ignore her.

Imprison her in Changchun Palace.

"Get out!" The people around her were replaced by people from the Queen Mother, and Liu Wanying shouted angrily.

"Your Majesty, you should be lucky that Concubine Ning and the child are safe and sound," the palace maid reminded in a low voice.

Liu Wanying clenched her hands with anger, which was good, but Shen Ning was very tough.

"Now that the Queen Mother and Your Majesty have promoted Shen Ning's position, she is already on an equal footing with you."

The anger in Liu Wanying's eyes became more and more intense.

"Get out!" Liu Wanying had been pampered since childhood and was used to being arrogant and domineering. How could she bear this kind of grievance?

The palace maid smiled, and instead of retreating, she walked to Liu Wanying's side. "Miss, I am a member of the general. I have always been by the Queen Mother's side. The Queen Mother still trusts me, so she asked me to serve you. I secretly ventilated The message was sent to the general, and the general sent you a reply."

The palace maid looked around and put a piece of paper in Liu Wanying's hand.

Liu Wanying frowned, opened the note and took a look. It was her father's handwriting.

"Father actually asked me to endure it?" Liu Wanying couldn't hold back her anger for a moment. How long will she have to endure it?

"Tell father not to wait any longer. The Queen Mother has made it clear that she will no longer be of the same mind as our Liu family. She killed Grandma Sun and imprisoned me here. She really has no respect for her uncle and nephew at all. , let my father lead the troops and come in, and he will become the emperor himself!"

Liu Wanying said angrily and said treasonous words.

The maid quickly covered Liu Wanying's mouth. "My lady, don't talk nonsense. I will inform the general about this matter, but you must listen to the general now. If the queen mother had not cared about the feelings of her aunt and nephew, I am afraid she would have long ago..."

Liu Wanying snorted, a little unconvinced. "When my father succeeds, I will see what qualifications these people have to suppress me."

The palace maid spoke in a low voice. "My queen, as long as General Liu is here, you will always be a noble concubine. So what if Shen Ning comes up? Don't be afraid. How can her Prime Minister's Palace compare with the General's Palace?"

The palace maid asked Liu Wanying to hold her still. As long as General Liu was around, no one would dare to really touch her.

Even the Queen Mother had to think carefully, fearing that she would completely overwhelm General Liu.

Once Liu Zhensheng goes crazy, the Queen Mother may not be able to deal with him with full confidence. Now, the Queen Mother can only exploit Liu Zhensheng's weaknesses and slowly... weaken Liu Zhensheng's power step by step.

…

Shen Ning's residence.

Giving birth is a strenuous job, and it really cost Shen Ning half of her life.

I slept heavily all night, but I was finally able to have a good night's sleep.

Shen Ning turned over and leaned into Xiao Junhe's arms. Her whole body ached, it was so sore.

It's like walking through the gates of hell.

Fortunately, she knew medical skills, and although the baby was born prematurely, it was still full term.

"Ah..." Shen Ning woke up and Xiao Junhe was still there.

"Your Majesty did not come to court early?" Shen Ning was stunned for a moment and sobered up a little.

"I've been there and I'm back." Xiao Junhe pulled Shen Ning into his arms.

"Then Liu Zhensheng..." The Queen Mother made such a big noise yesterday, but Liu Zhensheng didn't make trouble in the court? Or did he show the slightest intention to rebel?

"Liu Zhensheng claimed to be ill and did not go to court." Xiao Junhe's arrogance was low and he was obviously angry.

Liu Zhensheng...it's not that easy to deal with him.

The Queen Mother attacked the maids around Liu Wanying, making it clear that she wanted to become Liu Zhensheng's enemy.

If Liu Zhensheng had rebelled, he would have saved himself a lot of trouble.

But Liu Zhensheng was surprisingly quiet.

This is not Liu Zhensheng's style. Someone must be giving him advice.
