Chapter 3849: Ongoing (2)

The queen took a deep breath. You Thats enough. Get up!

Princess Rao smiled with tears in her eyes. Mother, would you like to help

The queen jabbed a finger in her forehead. If I dont help you, who am I going to help? Your brother?

After that, the queen gave some instructions to her maid, who nodded and quickly walked away.

Princess Rao said, Mother, youre

The queen said, Your father dotes on Concubine Mei these days. Let her go. Mother, thats brilliant! Princess Rao was over the moon.

As expected, after Lady Mei coaxed the king away, the study was empty.

Princess Rao finally let out a breath of relief and told her mother, Mother, dont worry. Ive arranged for someone in the study to burn the memorials. As for Father Mother, how about you let him stay sick for a few days?

When that happens, my brother and Huyan Yichen wont dare to disturb him, and the office head can only postpone the investigation indefinitely.

The empress frowned. Your father isnt just anyone. Im afraid that ordinary medicine

Just then, Princess Rao took a potion out of her chest pocket and handed it to the queen.

The queen was confused. Whats that?

Its a Semi-divine potion, said Princess Rao in a low voice. Let him drink it, and hell

The queen didnt like the idea, but Princess Rao kept persuading her and said, My father is with Concubine Mei. Even if something happens, Concubine Mei will be the one to answer for it So, Mother, what are you afraid of?

The queen agreed. If she could get rid of Concubine Mei with this incident

But Im the one who recommended Concubine Mei. Shes still useful. Itll be such a shame to destroy her now. The queen sounded reluctant.

Princess Rao smirked. Mother, youre too kind. Havent you noticed? Concubine Mei has been getting more and more disobedient in the past few months, and shes been behaving like a spoiled child now and then. The queen paled a little.

Princess Rao said, You did recommend her to the king, but now that shes earned my fathers favor, she doesnt think its because of you anymore.

Mother, shes disloyal.

Raoxi! The queens voice was authoritative.

But Princess Rao wasnt afraid.

Mother, you have to prove that you can make her popular but can also tramp her to death. That way, shell be obedient. Otherwise, shell jump around even more and backfire on you. Can you accept that?

The queen was lost in her thoughts.

Princess Rao was still trying to persuade her. This is our best chance. Mother, we can kill two birds with one stone!

The queen said, Ill think about it.

Semi-divine potion aside, things didnt go as smoothly as Princess Rao thought.

That was because

The study was on fire!

Little Liu, the young eunuch, didnt know what happened.

When His Majesty wasnt around, he opened the door and snuck in to look for the memorial. However, he couldnt find it after searching for a long time, and somehow, there was a fire all of a sudden.

He didnt use any fire.

Why was the room on fire all of a sudden?

Little Liu was confused.

Apart from him, there was only one mosquito flying around

To make it worse, when he tried to run, he realized that the door was locked. There was no way he could get away!

Gos.h.!.+

Little Liu thought he was going to lose his mind.

Flames quickly swept across the study, which was filled with flammable paper and wood
