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

Chapter 264 Concubine Liang’s reputation is tarnished

Meng Shuren hugged the bundle tightly and nodded, feeling both relieved and scared.

Fortunately, at least I have Sister Liangfei, who always cares about me.

I am afraid that Concubine Rou will continue to harm her...

She no longer dared to go against Concubine Rou, and even humbled herself to apologize to Concubine Rou. However, Concubine Rou not only did not forgive her, but also framed her and sent her to the cold palace.

Faced with such a vicious and favored Concubine Rou, Meng Shuren really didn't know how he could escape from her...

"I bribed the guard at the door to get in. I can't stay for long. I'll take my leave now!"

After the little palace maid left, Meng Shu Ren was still feeling uneasy, but the eunuchs guarding the cold palace came in.

These days, Meng Shuren has been subjected to a lot of ridicule and sarcasm from them, and even the jewelry he brought in was looted by them.

Seeing the eunuchs walking towards her, Meng Shuren hugged the bag in her hands tightly with a look of vigilance.

"Tsk, it's good to have been a master. Even though you've fallen to the cold palace, there are still people who care about you. Does anyone know if there are any prohibited items in here? Check it for us!"

Meng Shuren rushed to grab the bag and said, "How dare you! This is mine, give it back to me!"

"Oh! What do you mean by your things? Once you enter the cold palace, we have the final say on whether the things belong to you or not!"

As they pulled, the contents of the bag fell all over the floor.

There were some banknotes, some spare clothes, and some dry food in it.

In the cold palace, people can't even get enough to eat, let alone mice? As soon as they smelled the dry food, mice came to eat it!

But who knows...

After just a few bites, the mice fell to the ground foaming at the mouth, deader than dead...

The eunuchs followed Xiao Zhouzi's instructions, pretending to be scared and taking several steps back: "The dry food is poisonous!!!"

"Fortunately, the dry food was eaten by rats in advance, otherwise if we had snatched it away, we would have been the ones poisoned to death..."

Meng Shuren's face turned pale as paper. She collapsed to the ground in fear, her hands shaking. "It's Concubine Rou! Concubine Rou is here to kill me! I've already been banished to the cold palace, and she wants to take my life!"

The eunuch standing in the front rolled his eyes and said, "Although we serve in the cold palace, we still follow the rules. The little maid who came to see you gave the bribe money, and when she came in, no one touched the bag she brought. You said that Concubine Rou wanted to kill you, could it be that she was arranged by Concubine Rou?"

Meng Shuren was so frightened that his breathing almost stopped: "No... it's not Concubine Rou... then, then who wants to kill me?"

"Sister Liang Fei sent her here. Could it be that Sister Liang Fei wants to kill me? No... Impossible... What reason does Sister Liang Fei have to kill me? I don't want to die... I don't want to die..."

The eunuchs looked at each other and calmly guided him: "You can't even figure out such a simple question. No wonder you ended up in the cold palace."

"You don't even know how to use your pig brain to think about it. Whoever told you to disgust Concubine Rou is the murderer. After all, you are useless, so of course the other party will kill you to silence you."

Under normal circumstances, Meng Shuren would have noticed that such an obvious trap was wrong, no matter how dumb she was. But she had been under psychological pressure day and night during this period, and her mind was on the verge of collapse, so she could not bear any more stimulation.

"No...it's not me...I didn't mean to disgust Roupin..."

"It was Concubine Liang who said... that I had offended Concubine Rou before... If I want Concubine Rou to forgive me, I have to apologize to her..."

"Everything... everything was instigated by Sister Liang Fei... It was she, it was she who wanted to kill me to silence me! I don't want to die... I don't want to die..."

Meng Shuren got up from the ground and rushed out frantically in fear: "It's not me...it's not me...it's Concubine Liang! Concubine Liang, don't kill me...don't kill me..."

Xiao Zhouzi had been squatting on the roof, watching what was happening below.

Concubine Rou was indeed very good at predicting things. As long as she tricked Commoner Meng in this way, she would reveal the person who was stirring up trouble behind the scenes.

Ha! Concubine Liang was really good at hiding her true intentions. Even he had always believed that she was a kind and benevolent Bodhisattva.

This time the offense has fallen on Concubine Rou. I wonder how long Concubine Liang’s reputation as a good person can last?

Xiao Zhouzi followed Shen Zhinian's instructions and ordered his men to let Meng Shuren escape from the cold palace. Only two guards chased after him from a distance.

After all, Meng Shuren was already unconscious and was frightened to such an extent that it was possible that he said anything outside.

……

Previously, Concubine Liang wanted Meng Shuren to act unreasonable in front of Shen Zhinian so that she could manipulate public opinion behind the scenes, saying that Shen Zhinian's kindness was all pretended and that his methods were actually extremely cruel!

Otherwise, how could Meng Shuren be so scared by her?

Who knew that her plan failed, and Shen Zhinian used the same method against her!

However, the cold palace was under the jurisdiction of Shen Zhinian after all. If the abandoned concubine ran out and hurt someone, it would be her fault. So Meng Shuren only strolled outside for a while before being caught by the guards.

But everyone in the palace heard clearly what she shouted with fear on her face!

It is precisely because everyone has always regarded Concubine Liang as a good person who cares about the six palaces, that this time Meng Shuren revealed her true nature, which caused such a sensation!

In just a short while, rumors spread throughout the harem!

"Hey, have you heard? The reason why Commoner Meng went to cause trouble for Concubine Rou in the Imperial Garden that day was actually because Concubine Liang instigated it!"

"Ah? No way! Concubine Liang is so nice, how could she be such a person?"

"I don't know either. But if she hadn't done it, why would Meng Shuren be so frightened that she begged Lady Liang not to kill her to silence her?"

"Now that you mention it, I remember that before Meng Shuren was banished to the cold palace, the place she went to most often was Changchun Palace! Could the truth really be what she said?"

"If it's true, it's too scary that Concubine Liang could pretend for so many years!"

"..."

Of course, the good reputation that Concubine Liang had worked hard to build for many years could not be easily destroyed by a mere commoner like Meng. There were still many people in the harem who believed in her and spoke for her.

Because it involved Shen Zhinian, the emperor ordered an investigation.

But the cold palace was her sphere of influence, and Shen Zhinian had already cleaned up the mess. Moreover, Meng Shuren was already unconscious, and nothing could be found out by the interrogation. No one realized that all this was a deliberate setup by Shen Zhinian.

The case was finally closed with the conclusion that Meng Shuren had gone mad and the words of a madman could not be trusted.

However...there is always a place where there is no smoke without fire in the harem. Meng Shuren said that Liang Fei wanted to use her to harm Rou Fei and kill her to silence her. She said it so confidently. It is hard to believe that this matter is just her nonsense.

Lady Liangfei...is she really a good person...

After this incident, although Concubine Liang's image did not completely collapse, her reputation as white as jade was eventually tainted with a glaring flaw.
