C4 There Was No Avoiding Disaster

Chi Hongze, who was sitting in a chair, turned to the side, and a knowing expression swept across his face.

Taking the pomegranate hairpin, Concubine Ren still had a look of disbelief on her face. She forced a grateful expression on her face, "Thank you, Empress!"

She actually didn't want to cause a ruckus with me?

When she released the news that she was pregnant, Concubine Ren had already considered the Empress' reaction.

She had already made all the preparations, but now, Yun Zhiyu's reaction was far beyond her expectations.

She did not know Yun Zhiyu's goal, so she did not dare to say anything else. She could only silently plan in her heart.

After exchanging a few polite words with Concubine Ren, Yun Zhiyu used this as an excuse to return to Phoenix Palace.

After pondering for a moment, Yun Zhiyu called Lianye over, "Find a few trustworthy people to do something."

Lianye's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that the Empress was still going to make a move on Concubine Ren.

Yun Zhiyu whispered a few words, and Lianye's face was filled with doubt, "Empress, why did you do this?"

"Just do it. Don't ask why. Just do it well."

Lianye replied and hurriedly went to do it.

Yun Zhiyu stared at a flower that had just bloomed in the courtyard, but a hint of coldness appeared in her eyes.

Humans were harmless, but tigers had the heart to harm others.

She could not harm them, but she had to be careful.

When she thought of this, her eyelids twitched, as if she was foretelling something.

The day came faster than she had expected.

However, after three to five days, the person in charge came to her door.

"Empress, the Emperor invites you to the Emerald Pavilion."

Eunuch Guo said "please," but his words were filled with killing intent.

Lianye subconsciously clenched her sleeves as her heart beat wildly.

Before they came, the news of Concubine Ren's miscarriage had already spread throughout the harem. There were even rumors that the culprit was the Empress.

Lianye instinctively looked towards Yun Zhiyu, but discovered that Yun Zhiyu was still calm and composed, not a single ripple could be seen on the teacup in her hand.

"Got it."

She didn't refute him?

Eunuch Guo raised his eyebrows subtly, turned around and made a gesture of invitation.

They walked all the way to the Emerald Pavilion.

Concubine Ren was lying on the bed, her face covered in tears. She was in so much pain that she wished she was dead.

Chi Hongze accompanied her by the side with a gentle expression, comforting her.

Seeing her arrive, Chi Hongze stood up and asked, "Empress, what exactly is going on?"

His expression was anxious, but he did not question her. In fact, he did not even have a trace of doubt.

He was so open and honest that it was as if he was already sure that this had nothing to do with Yun Zhiyu.

The more he showed his trust in her, the colder Yun Zhiyu's heart became.

Because she knew very well that whether she did it or not, Chi Hongze wanted an ending that said "it was her doing"!

She silently clenched her fists and gently raised her gaze, glancing at Concubine Ren's pale face.

A familiar scene still happened in the end.

However, this time, there were more or less changes compared to her previous life.

In his previous life, it was she who fell for the trap and made Concubine Ren kneel down, causing her to give birth.

In this life, the reason why Concubine Ren had a miscarriage was because she wanted to avoid the child.

However, the child withdrawal had nothing to do with her, the Empress.

"Empress, no matter how much you hate me, you shouldn't vent your anger on the Emperor's heir!"

Concubine Ren cried at the top of her lungs, causing others to feel heartbroken.

Yun Zhiyu knew in her heart that even if she took the blame now, Chi Hongze would never really let her be punished.

But why should she take the blame?

Being used and played in the palm of his hand was not her life. She would not admit it even if she died!

In this life, she only wanted to stay far away from Chi Hongze and be a quiet queen who had nothing to do with anyone.

"Catch the thief and catch the stolen goods," Yun Zhiyu said calmly. "What right do you have to say that I harmed you?"

Concubine Ren's eyes were red and swollen, "I don't want to believe it either, but that's the evidence! There's evidence that it was you, Empress, who killed my child!"

"Imperial Physician Zhao! Where is Imperial Physician Zhao?!"

"I'm here."

As Concubine Ren shouted, Imperial Physician Zhao stood up with an object in his hand.
