Chapter 3 Inside Story
  The entourage responded with respect, but also asked doubtfully: "Why does the prince want to help her?"

"This woman looks so similar to the imperial concubine. She was sent to the palace. She might have some inside information, not to mention..."

A cold light flashed in Shen Hebei's eyes: "Maybe, this king can use her for some purpose?"

The attendant did not dare to ask further questions, and left carrying the guard who had fainted from pain.

Ren Yuhuan quickly wrote a family letter and gave it to Shen Hebei. Although she asked him for help, she did not dare to trust her in her heart. She did not dare to write the family letter too clearly. She only asked her mother to be careful at home and take care of herself.

After thanking Shen Hebei, she watched the man leave. Just as she was about to return to Yikun Palace, she suddenly felt the dizziness in her head suddenly getting worse.

Her vision went dark, and she fell to the ground and passed out.

The rain hit her body, making her already pale face even whiter. It was dark, and no one noticed that she was unconscious on the palace road.

As soon as the clapper struck the sky, the rain finally stopped.

The light in the study room finally went out, and Shen Yanzhi pressed his eyebrows and stood up and walked out.

The eunuch greeted him respectfully: "Your Majesty, are you going back to the palace to rest?"

Shen Yanzhi was silent for a moment, and that soft face popped into his mind for no reason.

But it was already the first watch now, so she was probably asleep.

He said quietly: "Go back to the palace."

The eunuch obeyed respectfully and ordered people to prepare a soft sedan chair and drive back to Taihe Palace.

As the sedan arrived at the imperial garden, the eunuch at the head suddenly exclaimed: "Why is there someone over there?"

Shen Yanzhi frowned and looked at the unconscious figure from a distance, feeling inexplicably familiar.

"Get off the sedan."

He gave a cold command, got off the sedan and strode forward, and saw the delicate man lying on the ground with his eyes closed tightly.

Why did she faint in the Royal Garden? !

Shen Yanzhi frowned even more, took off his cloak, wrapped her up and carried her into the sedan chair: "Ask the imperial doctor to wait in Taihe Palace, and go back quickly."

The eunuch saw clearly the face in his arms and knew that the matter was urgent. He did not dare to delay for a moment and hurried back to the palace.

Shen Yanzhi looked at the scar on her wrist, frowned and called the palace maid to change her soaked clothes. He was suddenly shocked when he saw the style of the clothes.

How could she be dressed like this?

The eunuch on the side also noticed something was wrong and suddenly realized: "Your Majesty, I am afraid this is the concubine Ren Yuhuan, the concubine of the imperial concubine. She followed her sister into the palace and is now working as a maid in Yikun Palace."

Shen Yanzhi's brows softened slightly.

If it was really his noble concubine who dressed up like this, he would be suspicious.

The imperial doctor came quickly and saw that it was just a cold. He bandaged up Ren Yuhuan's body before he bowed down.

Shen Yanzhi was about to leave, but at this moment the woman suddenly woke up and held his hand as if instinctively: "No, don't..."

Those clear black and white eyes were filled with panic, the eye circles were still red, and the voice was so sweet that it made people feel soft.

Looking at the hand holding his sleeve, Shen Yanzhi felt inexplicably in a daze.

He quickly came to his senses and coldly shook off the woman's hand: "How arrogant, are you so frivolous in front of me?"

Only then did Ren Yuhuan realize that he was in Shen Yanzhi's bedroom, and he bit his lip unconsciously.

When she came out, she was wearing the clothes of a palace maid, so Shen Yanzhi would naturally no longer mistake her for Ren Qianyu.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was careless..."

She forced herself to get up and knelt beside his legs, looking at him with a pair of misty eyes, soft and charming.

Shen Yanzhi was startled again, inexplicably feeling that this palace maid he met for the first time felt particularly familiar to him. He covered up the inexplicable thoughts in his heart and said quietly: "Excuse me, for the sake of your eldest sister, I forgive you."

A dark light flashed in Ren Yuhuan's eyes.

Now that Shen Yanzhi knows who she is, can she take the opportunity... to get close to him as her own identity?

She can help Ren Qianyu fight for favor, and she can naturally fight for it with her own identity!
  "Thank you, Your Majesty."

She lowered her eyebrows and stood up, but when she stood up, she staggered and fell towards Shen Yanzhi.

The man frowned, but subconsciously stretched out his hand to grab her.

The faint scent of goose pear tent filled the tip of her nose, which was exactly the same as the smell of Concubine Ren last night.

As if by mistake, he pulled her into his arms and carefully looked at that soft face.

Ren Yuhuan pretended to be frightened, but did not refuse. She just shrank in his arms and pulled his sleeves and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty..."

"She is really similar to your eldest sister."

A dark light flashed in Shen Yanzhi's eyes, and he stretched out his hand to strangle her injured hand: "What did you want to do when you ran to the Royal Garden late at night?"

Ren Yuhuan was pinched so hard that her eyes became even more pitiful. She bit her lip and stared at him with tears in her eyes. She spoke in a more delicate voice: "Your Majesty, I'm just out of curiosity. I won't dare to go out for a walk in the future..."

The voice begging for mercy made Shen Yanzhi's heart palpitate inexplicably, and the hand on her waist tightened unconsciously.

How could sisters who are not the same as concubines really be so similar?

He couldn't help but want to get closer, but the eunuch's voice suddenly came from outside: "My dear concubine? Why are you here? I was just about to send someone to Yikun Palace to deliver a message. Your sister fainted in the imperial garden. His Majesty thought he was brought back by you."

Then, a somewhat artificial voice sounded: "Excuse me, father-in-law, that girl is just having fun, so please don't offend His Majesty."

Shen Yanzhi frowned and let go of Ren Yuhuan, just as the palace door was pushed open.

Ren Qianyu came in with the palace servants, glared at Ren Yuhuan fiercely, then walked to Shen Yanzhi and said with a sweet smile: "I would like to pay your respects to Your Majesty. This girl, Yu Huan, has never offended the holy face, has she?"

She stretched out her hand to take Shen Yanzhi's hand. As soon as her fingertips touched his wrist, the man couldn't help but frown and waved her away.

For some reason, he was now inexplicably resisting this woman's touch.

But when he faced her concubine's transgressive behavior just now, he didn't find it annoying.

How could this be?

Ren Qianyu's expression also froze: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Shen Yanzhi tightened his lips and said in a cold tone: "I'm tired, take your sister back."

Ren Qianyu's eyes were a little unwilling, but she could only lower her eyebrows and say yes, and left with Ren Yuhuan.

Before leaving, Ren Yuhuan took advantage of Ren Qianyu's lack of attention and deliberately turned back, stopping to speak and looking at Shen Yanzhi.

The man really frowned and looked at her with a darker look.

After the sisters left, Shen Yanzhi called the eunuch: "Follow quietly and see what the imperial concubine and her concubine said."

Ren Qianyu didn't realize Ren Yuhuan's little move.

When there was no one around, she retreated from the palace and stared at Ren Yuhuan with a pair of hateful eyes: "You think you can jump out of my hands by showing your face in front of His Majesty? Ren Yuhuan, this is the lesson I have given you. not enough?!"

Ren Yuhuan lowered his head to hide the coldness in his eyes and said in a calm voice: "I just happened to faint and was taken back by Your Majesty. If your Majesty thinks so, I have no other choice."

"Okay... okay! You like to pretend to be pitiful, and I let you pretend!"

Ren Qianyu's eyes became even colder, she grabbed Ren Yuhuan's injured hand and pushed her towards the lotus pond next to her!
  Ren Yuhuan frowned in pain, and before he had time to steady his center of gravity, he fell into the turbid water.
