Chapter 172 Still Fake
At the ceremony of the coronation, Wanyin couldn't help laughing out loud! However, after becoming the queen, Wanyin did not live a carefree life as expected. The struggle in the palace was still fierce, and all forces were competing secretly. Wanyin knew that her position was hard-won, and she had to be careful to preserve the glory of herself and her family.
At the same time, Lu Yi, who was abandoned, was unwilling to lose everything and began to plan revenge. She used her wisdom and connections to try to find an opportunity to regain Zhan Shixuan's favor. A thrilling palace fight is about to begin...
Wanyin often met Lu Yi in the palace, and every time they met, the two of them would compete secretly. Wanyin always maintained the dignified manners of a queen on the surface, but in fact, in her heart, she was always on guard against Lu Yi's possible conspiracy. Lu Yi, on the other hand, deliberately pretended to be pitiful and fragile, trying to arouse Zhan Shixuan's sympathy for her.
Although Zhan Shixuan no longer had any feelings for Lu Yi, there was still some old friendship, so he would occasionally summon Lu Yi to come to the court. This situation made Wanyin feel very anxious and uneasy, so she made up her mind to take some actions to completely eliminate this potential threat.
One day, Wanyin got the news that Lu Yi would meet Zhan Shixuan in the garden, so she planned an "accident" in advance. When Lu Yi and Zhan Shixuan were chatting in the garden, it rained heavily without warning. Lu Yi accidentally slipped and fell to the ground, injured and bleeding a lot. After seeing this, Zhan Shixuan quickly ordered his men to send her back to the palace to rest, and also sent the imperial physician to treat her injuries with the best medicine.
However, Wanyin had secretly instructed the imperial physician to tamper with the medicine prescribed for Lu Yi, so that Lu Yi's condition would not only not improve but would become worse. Not long after, Lu Yi's physical condition took a sharp turn for the worse, and she died of a serious illness with a full heart of resentment.
Lu Yi's death did not bring Wanyin any sense of relief, because she knew that the struggle in the harem would never end. In order to ensure the stability of her position, Wanyin was determined to eliminate all potential threats.
Not long after, Wanyin was pleasantly surprised to find that she was pregnant. This news made her ecstatic, because it was undoubtedly a great opportunity to consolidate her position as queen and improve her status. However, other concubines in the palace were jealous and had evil thoughts in their hearts, secretly plotting to murder her.
Wanyin clearly understood how dangerous the environment she was in was, so she became more cautious and tried her best to protect herself and the fetus in her belly. Unfortunately, things did not go as she wished. During a banquet, she accidentally drank a cup of poisoned wine and suddenly felt severe pain in her abdomen. Fortunately, the imperial physician rushed to treat her and successfully saved her and her child's lives.
After experiencing this thrilling storm, Wanyin realized that she could no longer wait passively for others to take advantage of her. With her extraordinary wisdom and the power in her hands, she gradually weakened the hostile forces, while showing a more gentle and virtuous side in front of the emperor.
Finally, after going through countless hardships, Wanyin lived up to everyone's expectations and gave birth to a healthy and lovely prince! The emperor was so happy that he loved Wanyin even more than before. And what about Wanyin? She did not become complacent and stop moving forward because of the emperor's favor. Instead, she relied on her extraordinary wisdom and courage to cleverly resolve crises time and time again, successfully retained her throne as queen, and became the most powerful and prominent woman in the palace!
At the little prince's full moon banquet, while everyone was laughing and talking, the careful Wanyin noticed something strange - someone was trying to assassinate the prince! So, she was quick-witted and pretended to faint on the ground, trying to lure out the mastermind. Sure enough, the man with ulterior motives couldn't hold back his temper and finally revealed his true colors! What was unexpected was that the hateful murderer turned out to be Concubine Lin, who had once been jealous of Wanyin!
