Because of the death of Emperor Jian'an, all the women belonging to Emperor Jian'an in the harem started to cause chaos.

Most of the concubines who have never given birth to a prince or daughter will all be buried with the late emperor...!

This cruel order was issued by the prince. When thousands of women in the harem received this notice, they all wanted to escape from the palace.

But it was useless. The prince was determined to kill all the women in the harem. If any concubine struggled to leave his palace, the imperial army would directly kill him.

No, the eleventh woman in the harem has died first. These women sought death on their own, so they didn't even have the chance to accompany the late emperor to the burial. They were carried directly to the mass graves, along with a bunch of dead people.

Together with the palace maids and eunuchs.

There are many cases where the women in the harem cried in mourning and refused to run away. They just sat on the chair and waited for death. They didn't want to.

Compared to the concubines who had never given birth to a prince or a daughter, the concubine who gave birth to King Yu was quieter.

Concubine De had loved the emperor, but now that she learned that the emperor was dead, she just sighed softly.

Concubine De likes to worship the gods, so since she learned of the emperor's death last night, she has been kneeling in the hall of gods, never coming out or using a drop of water.

The massacre in the harem could not kill Concubine De. The maids and eunuchs who served Concubine De in the palace were better than the people in other palaces. Of course, except for those who served the queen, everyone in Changle Palace was enjoying themselves secretly.

Emperor Jian'an was buried on May 8, seven days later. Just after Emperor Jian'an had passed the first seventh day, he was carried into the royal cemetery with great splendor.

"You'er, are you here?" The Queen's Yiyuan Hall welcomed Zhai Xiyou.

Zhai Xiyou entered his mother's palace and when he saw her haggard face, he just sighed secretly.

When the poison invaded his body last night, Zhai Xiyou was still conscious, but he did not wake up because the poison inhibited his behavior.

Zhai Xiyou knew that Lin Yiren's choice was all because she did not want to lose her father, so she made such a stupid decision.

"Mother, my father has passed away. Please express my condolences. In the future, when my son ascends the throne, my mother will still be the most noble woman in the dynasty." Zhai Xiyou could not say anything to comfort her. She hoped that there would still be a queen mother who could comfort Lin Yiren.

Lin Yiren had tears in her eyes. She didn't care about fame, wealth or power, as long as she could survive safely in the harem.

"Mother, my father has passed away, and I still have many important things to do, so I won't disturb my mother's rest!" Zhai Xiyou turned around and Gu Qian left.

But she was stopped by Lin Yiren, "You'er, wait, my mother has a question for you."

"Mother, please speak." Zhai Xiyou turned sideways and did not look at Lin Yiren.

"Is it true that even if you ascend the throne, you will not take concubines?" Lin Yiren was overly sad, but she is still the head of the harem, and the situation in the harem will be reported to her.

When she learned that Youer was going to expel the entire harem, Lin Yiren had an idea.

"Mother, you should know that the wife of Erchen only belongs to Ruo'er." Zhai Xiyou has never thought about marrying a wife, and he will not want any woman other than Ruo'er.

"Hey...that girl is your Eighth Emperor brother's woman, and you still bear children for him, you..."

"Queen mother, I ask my mother to take care of the affairs of my sons and ministers in the future, and don't force my sons and ministers to accept concubines and become queens!"

Lin Yiren sighed heavily. She would not ask for trouble. When You'er ascends the throne, wouldn't it be You'er who has the final say in the world?
