Steal my marriage? Turn around and marry the tyrant to take the throne

Chapter 265 The One Who Ascended the Throne in the Previous Life

Zhongcui Palace.

A sneer flashed across Shen Zhinian's eyes.

She had said long ago that the women in the harem used their own methods to compete for favor and eliminate their opponents. She could scheme against others, and others could certainly scheme against her.

But no matter whether it is her or someone else, once they take action, they must be prepared for the plan to fail and be backlashed!

Concubine Liang had plotted against her, and she had noticed it, so naturally she had to bear the consequences!

She really couldn't destroy Concubine Liang's years of hard work in a short period of time. But everything is done step by step, isn't it?

Shen Zhinian thought so in her heart, but her face was full of guilt. She cried in the emperor's arms until her eyes were red. "...Although Meng was banished to the cold palace, she was your woman after all. The guards in the cold palace did not dare to be too presumptuous with her, so they let her break free and run away."

"If it weren't for this, she wouldn't have been talking nonsense outside and ruining Sister Liang Fei's reputation..."

"In the final analysis, it was because of my poor management that everyone misunderstood Sister Liang Fei. How could I feel comfortable if Sister Liang Fei's reputation was damaged because of this..."

Shen Zhinian not only wants to make everyone suspicious, but also wants to destroy the image of Concubine Liang in the emperor's heart bit by bit!

Nangong Xuanyu hugged Shen Zhinian, feeling distressed, and comforted her gently: "That day in the Imperial Garden, you were almost injured by Meng. You were the real victim. What does this have to do with you?"

"I have always disliked the way Meng Shi always bites this and slanders that! If she hadn't gone mad, I would have punished her!"

"Alright, alright. This matter is not your or Concubine Liang's fault, Nian Nian, please stop blaming yourself..."

Although the emperor said this, he couldn't help but feel a little suspicious in his heart.

Meng always slandered Nian Nian because she was jealous. But she had always had a close relationship with Concubine Liang and even received many favors from Concubine Liang. Why would she suddenly attack Concubine Liang?

Could it be that the facts are really as Meng said...

As soon as this thought came up, it was suppressed by Nangong Xuanyu.

Liang Fei had served him for so many years, never competing with anyone, and was very caring towards everyone in the harem. He couldn't question Liang Fei just because of Meng's crazy words, otherwise it would be chilling.

Little do people know that once a person begins to doubt another person, the trust between them will be broken.

……

Changchun Palace.

Concubine Liang sat on a chair, half of her body covered by shadows. Although her face still had a look of compassion, it was not as gentle as before. Instead, it gave people a gloomy feeling...

Ruoli said angrily: "Empress Roupin is so cunning, she actually tricked us like this!"

Concubine Liang's eyes were gloomy: "This is her brilliance."

Concubine Liang had never hurt anyone herself. If Meng Shuren really slandered her blatantly, it would be easier to investigate. She could easily clear herself of suspicion, and everyone would think she was innocent and wronged.

Unfortunately, Meng Shuren was already unconscious, and everything he said was attributed to madness. There was no way to clarify it, and it was impossible to reason with a madman.

This gave everyone room to speculate and make malicious assumptions...

Ruoli's face was full of frustration.

She had thought that when Meng begged Concubine Rou for mercy in public, she thought that the mud in her crotch was shit. However, who knew that the mud would end up in her own Concubine Rou's crotch...

But Ruoli dared to say such crude words to Concubine Rou in private, but she didn't dare to say such words to her own master...

"Your Majesty, although everyone says that the words of a madman cannot be trusted, there are still many people in the palace who think that what Meng said may not be groundless...Are we just going to leave it alone?"

"How to care?"

Concubine Liang raised her eyes and looked at Ruoli: "Your Majesty has already said that Meng is talking nonsense. If I go out to clarify or do something to her, wouldn't that be trying to cover up the truth?"

This was the first time in Concubine Liang's life that she suffered such a loss.

It seems that she really underestimated Concubine Rou before!

Ruoli said unwillingly, "Then... the cold palace is under the jurisdiction of Concubine Rou. Meng ran out from there and spread rumors. At least let Your Majesty punish Concubine Rou for the crime of negligence, right?"

There was a flash of gloom in Concubine Liang's eyes: "If you can think of it, how can Concubine Rou not think of it? I'm afraid she has already explained this to His Majesty."

"If I pursue this further, it would only make me look narrow-minded, like a thief with a guilty conscience."

Ruoli didn't know what to say: "...Are we just going to let it go like this?"

Liang Fei calmed down and said, "It's just a bunch of groundless rumors. It can't hurt me. As long as your majesty believes in me, Rou Fei is just wasting her time."

"From today on, you will send someone to the cold palace to deliver something to Meng every three days to make sure she is alive and well."

Ruoli couldn't understand: "The rumors against the queen are all because of Meng Shuren. Shouldn't the queen stay as far away from her as possible? Why is she still..."

After a brief loss of composure, Concubine Liang regained her compassionate look: "Mrs. Meng is pitiful. She is unkind to me, but I cannot be unjust to her. Just do as I say."

Of course it was because... the more she didn't avoid suspicion and continued to care for Meng Shuren as before, the more she seemed to have a clear conscience. Over time, the rumors would be broken by themselves.

Moreover, once Meng Shuren died, everyone would think that she was the one who murdered her to silence her. Now no one wanted Meng Shuren to live well more than Concubine Liang.

……

Tai Chi Hall.

Mo Yun and the others were also discussing this matter: "…Madam, do you think what Meng said was just nonsense or is it true?"

The paper shadow said, "No way... I have heard of the good reputation of Concubine Liang when I was in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. How can I believe the slander of a madman?"

Jiang Wange listened to them talking one after another without expressing any opinion, but many thoughts flashed through her mind.

The palace fighting novel she read was a harem novel, with no specific female protagonist. From the perspective of each woman, it was a life of ups and downs.

In the book, after Queen Jiang passed away, Concubine Xian and Concubine Liu fought fiercely in the later period, but both ended up suffering losses.

The one who finally ascended to the throne was... the well-loved and highly praised Concubine Liang in the harem...

The book says that she was a kind person who treated everyone well. Although the emperor had no romantic feelings for her, he was very satisfied with her character. The concubines in the harem also respected her very much.

Only a woman like this is worthy of ruling the six palaces and being the mother of the country!

But when Jiang Wange read, she always felt something was strange...

Concubine Liang had never done anything bad, but whenever something happened in the harem, she was able to avoid it perfectly and even become the beneficiary.

It's okay if it happens once or twice, but if it happens every time, it will make readers shudder...
