A month passed in the blink of an eye. Yun Ruo Lu had truly decided to live a very leisurely life. Although she was an assassin in her previous life, she had never lived such a peaceful life. Although she was an assassin, that did not mean that she was an ignorant assassin. She had only heard people say that the battles in the harem were extremely intense.

This imperial harem of the Yuchi Kingdom was different. As she saw it, this imperial harem of the Yuchi Kingdom was so peaceful and comfortable that it didn't seem like a harem at all. Virtually everyone respected her. Even the empress was the same. She had already been here for a month, but she hadn't seen any concubines come pick on her.

However, the more strange it was, the more bizarre it seemed.

"Imperial Concubine, it's getting late. You should rest." A palace maid came in with a lantern. It seemed like it was time to put out the lights in the palace.

"Yu'er, why haven't I seen Lan'er these past few days? Where did she go?" Ever since Yun Ruo Lu had knocked Lan'er out, she had changed Yu'er to become her personal maid.

"Lan Er came home a few days ago. She is older and the palace maid is about to be released from the palace." Yu'er said.

Is that so?" Yun Ruo thought about it for a moment. Lan'er was indeed quite old. Once a palace maid reached the age of twenty-five, if she was still a young palace maid, she would be released from the palace. "Lan'er looked like a very experienced maid, about twenty-five years old.

After that, Yun Ruo Lu stopped thinking about it. At night, when she was sleeping, she heard a blood-curdling scream, it seemed to be coming from somewhere. She put on her clothes and got out of bed, not disturbing Yu'er, the palace maid.

She slowly groped her way out the door, listening to the sound of a tall tower, and that was where the sound came from.

This place was very strange. No one was holding a hand. She pushed open the door and found that there was always a strange sound coming from the tower, or perhaps it was the crying of a woman.

This pagoda had a total of seven floors. They were all circular, and each floor had many rooms.

Yun Ruo You wanted to go up, but she saw Yu'er carrying a lantern and said, "Empress, why have you come here? This is the Madman Tower …" The expression on Yu'er's face was extremely anxious, as if this wasn't a place she should be.

"What kind of place is the Madman Tower?" Yun Ruo Lu asked curiously.

"Esteemed Empress, the Madman Tower is the cold palace of the imperial harem. Those concubines of previous emperors or unfavoured concubines are all locked up here." Yu'er anxiously asked.

So this was the cold palace. No wonder it made such a strange sound. However, she felt that even in her dreams, she would still be able to hear that sound. Walking slowly back, she decided to come back the next day.

The next morning she went to the Tower of the Insane, and before Yu'er could get up, she was up.

After all, Yu'er was still young. After walking around in circles with her last night, it was right that she couldn't wake up.

She wore a simple set of clothes that weren't too complicated and arrived at the foot of the tower. However, she saw a man at the foot of the tower looking at something.

This man looked like a demon. It was rare to see such a man in this world.

But what was he looking at from the top of the Madman's Tower? Why don't you go in? There aren't even any guards here.

Perhaps the man was too engrossed in his gaze to notice Yun Ruo. He seemed to have made a huge decision and walked in.

"Are you really going in?" Yun Ruo saw Yuchi Xuan.

However, he knew that Yuchi Xuan knew martial arts, so he hid himself very far away. However, through her words, she could see that.

"I just want to see if the princess is all right?" Lan Yun said.

"Princess is naturally good. How can Zhen's sister treat her unfairly?" Of course, as long as you can concoct the elixir of life, my sister will let you take it away. Also, I hope that you can continue to refine that kind of medicine. It's the kind that will cause one to lose their memories after eating it. It's best if you can refine a pill that will permanently lose their memories. " Yuchi Xuan said.

"Of course." Lanyun said a few words to Yuchi Xuang, then left.

Yun Ruo Lu didn't know that when she was eavesdropping, she had subconsciously adjusted her inhalation, causing Yuchi Xuan to not notice her. It was because Lan Yun cared too much about Xiang Qing that she didn't notice anyone.

When no one was around, Yun Ruo Lu suddenly breathed out. What amnesia pill? Was there another reason for him to lose his memory? Was there a reason for him to consume it every day?

A short period of amnesia medicine. Someone was manipulating his memory. Didn't he say that he loved the Emperor very much? Since love was so important to him, why would Yuchi Xuan prevent him from regaining his memories?

She did not know, she had a feeling of fear, she had a bold guess, that the memory she had lost was very important. She had already transmigrated here, but she only remembered the events from before. Many things should have happened after the transmigration, and what the emperor wanted to do was not to let her remember.

On her way back, Yun Ruo bumped into someone who was valiant and upright. He had a big road on him.

"Yun, Imperial Concubine." Ke Yunjin did not expect to run into Yun Ruo. He was only leading his men to patrol the Imperial Palace.

"You are?" Yun Ruo looked at Ke Yunjin. She felt that the person in front of her was a bit familiar, as if she had seen him before. Something flashed through her mind, but she felt her head ache as if recalling it would give her a headache.

"General Ke Yunjin is the commander of the imperial guards." Ke Yunjin looked at Yun Ruo and seemed to want to say something, but in the end, she didn't say anything.

"You've seen me? Have I always been in the palace? " Yun Ruo Lu could not help but ask.

"To reply esteemed wangfei, esteemed …" Ke Yunjin wanted to say something.

However, she heard someone calling out to Yun Ruo Lu. Yun Ruo Lu turned around and saw that Yu'er had woken up. It was just that her palace maid's clothes were unbuttoned. It seemed like she came out in a hurry.

"Empress, where did you go?" Yu'er was sweating profusely.

"Is there something wrong with Yu'er?" Yun Ruo said leisurely.

"No, Yu'er just saw that the Empress disappeared. Wasn't there an assassin in the palace last month?" "I'm afraid that the Empress is in danger." Yu'er said.

Yun Ruo Lu felt that Yu'er was clearly lying. She came all the way here because she was afraid that she would encounter an assassination attempt on the emperor. Why would someone go assassinate an imperial concubine?

No one in the harem dared to offend her. Or perhaps it could be said that she had already been doted upon by Yuchi Xuan, who would come to her place early in the morning.

It was only because she was pregnant that he didn't come at night, and instead went to Yun Ruo Yao and his other concubines. How could his concubine send someone to assassinate him when he doted on her so much?

In addition, the assassin was heading straight for Yuchi Xuanluo.

Yun Ruo Lu felt that it was really strange.

Within the imperial palace, there was something indescribably strange going on, even though Yuchi Xuan always said that he loved himself. Every time she brought a pile of jewelry and precious items offered by various countries, but Yun Ruo Lu felt that none of them belonged to her.

"Let's go and see big sister." She thought over what had happened these past few days. She felt that the empress was her elder sister, and that her concern for the child in her womb wasn't fake. She wanted to ask her about it.

She arrived at the empress's chamber. It was very simple and did not contain any precious treasures.

The ladies here told her that the queen was studying.

She waited for a while and discovered that the empress had come out with the little prince.

"Why is little sister here?" Yun Ruo Yao tried her best to force out a smile, but the corners of her mouth were full of bitterness, she could barely force out a smile.

"I want to eat sister's red bean cake." Yun Ruo Lu casually made up an excuse.

"Great, big sister just happened to do it today." Yun Ruo Yao said, and ordered someone to bring the red bean cake over.

"Elder sister, your cooking skills are really good." Yun Ruo Lu ate a piece.

"Not at all." Yun Ruo Yao replied humbly.

"Didn't elder sister say last time that red beans gave birth to the Southern Kingdom? Didn't she talk about how she missed people? Elder sister has someone that she misses? " Yun Ruo Lu felt that what Yun Ruo Yao said last time was extremely strange.

"Nope." Yun Ruo Yao shook her head.

Yun Ruo Lu immediately asked: "Then is it someone that little sister misses?"

She had originally asked this question in a probing manner, but Yun Ruo Yao was greatly shocked. She was so scared that her beautiful face almost lost color, and she was even hugging her child tightly.

"No, go, don't come back. So that I can give birth to your child. " Yun Ruo Yao said.

"Elder sister?" Yun Ruo Lu knew that the empress must have known something, and her eyes were filled with fear.

"I said go, don't you understand? Elder sister is going to feed my son now, you can go. " Although the empress didn't shout out loud, she did say such words.

Yun Ruo Lu knew the empress wouldn't tell her anything, so she left.

However, the empress's reaction was indeed something. Thinking of this, she said, "Elder sister, I will still come to see you."

However, things did not go as he wished. The next day, news of the empress's illness and the possibility of infection spread. The young prince had given it to the wet nurse, and Yun Ruo Yao had been grounded.

"Your majesty, chenqie wants to go see elder sister." Hearing this, Yun Ruo Lu felt even more uncomfortable.

"My beloved concubine, the empress's illness is contagious. It's better if you don't go." Yuchi Xuan said.

Yuchi Xuan had no choice but to take Yun Ruo Lu away, but to discover that the empress was lying on the bed after only a day, constantly coughing through the curtain. When she opened the curtain, she discovered that half of Yun Ruo Lu's face was covered in something very strange. It looked like a large chicken pox.

Yun Ruo Lu was indeed shocked.

"I don't know if this disease will be contagious yet, but it's better for my beloved concubine to leave." Yuchi Xuan pulled Yun Ruo Lu out. I'm afraid the queen's face is going to be ruined. It's really a bad disease, Yun Ruo thought.

When Yun Ruo returned to her own palace, the emperor went to handle government affairs.

Yun Ruo Lu suddenly grabbed her handkerchief. The empress's gaze was clearly trying to tell her something, but she didn't say anything and just coughed.

Now that she was alone, she really felt that this palace was very strange. She had to find out the reason for the strangeness of this place. She had made up her mind. Not a day later, she carefully recalled the events of the past few days from beginning to end.

He found the people in the palace extremely strange, as well as the amnesia medicine.

"Imperial Concubine, it's time to eat." Yu'er told her.

"Put it there, I'll eat later." Yun Ruo Lu casually replied.

"Imperial Concubine, there's a freshly made Ice Crystal Swallow's Nest chicken here. If you don't eat it now, it won't taste good when it gets cold." Yu'er said again.

Yun Ruo Lu could only sit there and eat obediently.

Yuchi Xuan had told her that the daily tonic was for the fetus in her womb. Therefore, she had top-notch tonics and tonics every day.
