Long Chen tried his best to recall and said: "I saw a person in the Queen's Palace when I was younger. I heard Shui Yun say that that person seemed to be a eunuch in the Queen's Palace."
Hearing this, Concubine Li's smiling face immediately changed and asked: "Who is it?"
Concubine Li immediately thought of Xiao Lizi.
Long Chen hesitated a little and said, "Didn't an eunuch escape from the palace? Shuiyun said that the eunuch looked very much like him."

Concubine Li trembled all over. Little Plum was her heartache.
If Shi Le were to find out what Xiao Li Zi had done while living with her in the palace, Concubine Li would definitely die.
When Concubine Li gave up chasing Xiao Lizi, she thought that Xiao Lizi would not appear again.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Lizi actually appeared again, and he was still in the Queen's Palace.
"Are you sure?"
Concubine Li held Long Chen's arm tightly.
Long Chen shook his head slightly and said: "I'm not sure, I just saw it. At that time, the man and the queen were having a secret conversation in the palace. I felt strange, so I asked Shuiyun."
"Shuiyun said that man looks a bit like Little Plum, but it's just a resemblance, so I'm not sure."
Concubine Li's face was pale, beads of sweat oozed from her body, and she grabbed Long Chen's hand tighter and tighter.
Concubine Li secretly planned: Xiao Lizi appeared in the Queen's Palace, and the two of them had a secret conversation.
So, there are two possibilities:
First, Xiao Lizi took refuge in the queen and wanted to expose his own scandal.
Second, Xiao Lizi is the Queen's man, and all this was arranged by the Queen.
No matter which one, it is a dead end for me.
The queen wanted to have some support before she died.
Concubine Li felt so terrified that she almost lost her balance.
"Mother, are you okay?"
Long Chen took the opportunity to put his arms around the imperial concubine's waist. The soft and gentle touch was very nostalgic.
"It's okay, I'm okay."
Concubine Li tried her best to stand still and look calmer.
"Help me sit down."
Concubine Li felt that her legs were weak.
Long Chen picked up Concubine Li and placed her on the couch.
Concubine Li's gauze palace dress was soaked with sweat, and she was very scared.
"When did you see him?"
Concubine Li asked, and Long Chen replied: "Just two days ago, Xiao He Shuiyun entered the palace to give the queen detoxification and acupuncture. I saw it when I entered."
"Yuyao was very nervous at the time and kicked us out. It took a long time before she let us in."
Hearing what Long Chen said, Concubine Li became even more panicked.
"You must find out who that person is and where he is."
"If you investigate this matter clearly, I will not only protect your life, but also your wealth."
"If you can't find out clearly, you'll just have to wait to die."
Concubine Li used coercion and inducement, so Long Chen must find out.
Long Chen pretended to be frightened and quickly begged: "Don't worry, I will find out everything about the little one. I must protect my family and my life. I don't want to die."
Concubine Li took a long breath and said, "Okay, go ahead. This matter is the most important. You must find out."
Long Chen bowed and said, "I obey, I need some time. I'm in a hurry. Don't blame me for not trying my best."
Concubine Li nodded and said, "I won't urge you on this matter. You must find out clearly and there shouldn't be any questions."
Long Chen bowed and said, "I'll take my leave, little one."
Concubine Li nodded, Long Chen exited the dormitory and went outside the door, where Hong'er was waiting outside.
"alright?"
Hong'er asked in a low voice, Long Chen nodded slightly and said: "Okay, I'm leaving first, I just..."
Long Chen gave a few instructions, and Hong'er immediately understood.
Long Chen left the dormitory and went straight back to Liu Mansion.
Hong'er entered the bedroom and saw the imperial concubine lying motionless on the couch, her face was very ugly, her gauze clothes were soaked with sweat, and there was still a layer of sweat on the couch.
"Mother, are you okay?"
Hong'er ran over quickly, thinking that Long Chen had disabled Concubine Li again.
Concubine Li waved her hands and said, "It's okay."
Hong'er immediately poured a bowl of tea over and helped the concubine to drink it.
After drinking a cup of tea, Concubine Li calmed down and said, "Hong'er, get ready, I'm going out tonight."
Hong'er was stunned for a moment and said: "Mother, if we are discovered,"
Concubines and maids were not allowed to leave the palace privately, especially concubines, who were not allowed to step out of the palace without Shi Le's permission.
The reason is very simple. What if the concubine leaves the palace and has an affair with another man?
Therefore, Hong'er said that if the imperial concubine was discovered leaving the palace, the consequences would be disastrous.
Concubine Li said coldly: "Go if you are told, there is so much nonsense!"
Hong'er knelt down in fear and kowtowed: "I obey my command."
Hong'er immediately went out to prepare.
Concubine Li leaned on the couch, thinking about Xiao Lizi, and felt like her mind was in a mess.
Long Chen just lied to Concubine Li, saying that the queen was about to die, and advised Concubine Li to make plans early.
But this is not enough to guarantee that Concubine Li will take action.
If Concubine Li suddenly found out that the queen was fine, she might stop.
Therefore, Long Chen dropped another bombshell news: Little Plum was in the Queen's Palace.
This is equivalent to forcing Concubine Li to a dead end.
If Concubine Li did not take action, the queen might go to Shi Le to expose Concubine Li's scandal.
When the time comes, Concubine Li's entire family will be executed.
Concubine Li has no way out and must attack the queen.
Hong'er quickly finished her preparations, returned to the dormitory, and said, "Your Majesty, you are ready."
Concubine Li stood up and said, "Change my clothes."
Hong'er immediately changed into plain clothes and covered her face with a bamboo hat and veil. Then she selected a few capable female guards and quietly left the palace through a secluded road.
After leaving the palace, Concubine Li quietly arrived at Jingzhao Mansion.
The government official stopped him and asked, "Who is it? Don't you know the curfew?"
Because they were worried about Long Chen sneaking into the royal city, Xingqing City implemented a strict curfew, and no one was allowed to move around after dark.
Hong'er stepped forward and whispered: "This is the imperial concubine, coming to see Mr. Fu Yin."
Hearing that it was Concubine Li, the government officials immediately let her go.
When he arrived at the Yamen, Li Guangliang heard that Concubine Li Guifei was coming and came out immediately.
"Concubine, why are you here?"
Li Guangliang felt dizzy when he saw Concubine Li.
If you don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything, and Concubine Li comes to visit, there must be problems, and the problems are huge.
Concubine Li waved her hand and everyone left.
"What's wrong?"
There were no outsiders, so Li Guangliang was not polite and sat down by himself.
Concubine Li took off her bamboo hat and said: "Two things. First, the queen is dying. She will die in half a month at most."
After hearing this, Li Guangliang couldn't help but said with great joy: "Then you can take a step further and ascend to the position of the head of the harem."
Of course Li Guangliang hopes that his sister will become the queen, and he can also climb up the ladder like a dragon and a phoenix.
Currently, the most favored person in the palace is Concubine Li. If the queen dies, Concubine Li will most likely take the throne.
Therefore, Li Guangliang was very happy when he heard the news. It could even be said that he was overjoyed from the sky.
Concubine Li did not show much joy and said: "There is second news."
Li Guangliang was very happy and asked: "What's the news?"
Concubine Li's voice was trembling as she said, "Little Plum is still alive and in the Queen's Palace."

Li Guangliang felt as if he had been struck by lightning. The joy he had just evaporated instantly, and he asked in surprise: "Are you sure?"
