Quick Transmigration: Can This Kind of Scum Become the Chosen One?

Chapter 312 The female protagonist ascends to the position of Empress Dowager through her son.

After Xu Ruyi was tortured, her secrets began to be exposed.

The marks left on Xu Ruyi's body by whipping the day before will fade by the next day.

No medicine was applied, and no one helped treat the wound.

These whip marks healed on their own.

This has been the case for several days in a row.

It's just that the whip marks healed better at the beginning.

Later, it seems that the excessive number of whip marks weakened the body's recovery ability, and the wounds healed more and more slowly.

But compared to normal people, it still seems amazing.

Even the Emperor himself came to check on the situation.

This reminds me of what Xu Qingya said.

The current Xu Ruyi may not really be human.

Even if they are human, they are not normal human beings.

A royal physician examined Xu Ruyi.

However, nothing different was found during the examination.

Just like Xu Ruyi's innate ability to recover.

After several days of continuous whipping, Xu Ruyi was in very poor mental condition.

She had never suffered like this before.

Even if these wounds are healing.

These beatings were real and felt on her body, all of which were the pain she had endured.

She wants to go home.

This world is terrifying.

The law of the jungle prevails.

With a single word from her superior, she became a prisoner.

Without evidence, there is no way to defend oneself.

If those in power believe she poisoned the animals, they will only force her to confess.

They didn't give her a chance to appeal.

She wanted to go home.

System, come out now!

She really couldn't stand it for another second.

She will die if she stays here.

This world is too terrible for her to handle.

However, the system did not appear.

She is still trapped in this prison.

Xu Ruyi's heart sank little by little.

The system clearly stated that it would assist her in the future, help her gain favor, help her in palace intrigue, help her achieve her goals, and help her return home.

But the system disappeared after she entered the palace.

They left not a single word, nor any explanation.

They just left like that.

They left her alone in this ruthless, cannibalistic harem.

There was only that one pill for fertility.

Oh, that fertility pill is a scam too.

The system said that as long as you take the fertility pill, you will get pregnant.

She clearly took the fertility pill.

However, when the imperial physician came to take her pulse, she asked him if she was pregnant, and he said no.

She wasn't pregnant, so naturally she couldn't be released.

Why did the system lie to her?

Xu Ruyi thought of the fertility pill she had taken.

If it's not a fertility pill, then what is it?

Could it be poison?

Is the system trying to harm her?

Is the system targeting the Emperor?

All those missions, goals, and plans to have children are fake.

That damned system is trying to use her to harm the emperor.

She suffered a completely undeserved misfortune.

Even if Xu Ruyi guessed that it was the system's fault, there was nothing she could do.

She couldn't find the system, so naturally she couldn't ask it for the antidote.

There is no way for him to clear his name of suspicion.

If she said it was done by the system, would the Emperor believe her?

Even if the emperor believed it, the system had already run away, and she couldn't catch it.

Just as Xu Qingya had said, Xu Ruyi was talking to herself.

Xu Ruyi has been communicating with an unseen entity called the System.

Xu Ruyi wanted the system to rescue her.

However, whether the system couldn't do it or didn't want to, Xu Ruyi wasn't rescued, and she kept blaming the system.

In the end, it seems that Xu Ruyi had a falling out with that system.

The Emperor personally interrogated Xu Ruyi: Who is the system? Where is the system?

What can the system do?

Xu Ruyi sold the system completely.

Xu Ruyi was trying to force out the system.

Since the system hasn't appeared, she'll be stuck here.

Time travel, resurrection—these are the things that Xu Ruyi says.

The Emperor listened to Xu Ruyi's words.

Deep down, I don't believe it.

No normal person would believe these things.

The Emperor was willing to believe Xu Ruyi's claims that the system had modified her body.

It's possible that the system used drugs to modify Xu Ruyi's body.

But all of the above were complete scams and deceptions.

It's also possible that Xu Ruyi has gone mad.

It's even possible that Xu Ruyi was just pretending to be crazy to escape responsibility.

The imperial physician searched through all the medical books, but could not find a second book with any relevant record.

However, the only medical book contained only simple descriptions of the symptoms, and no further information.

The imperial physicians could not find an antidote.

Moreover, the Emperor's health has always been quite stable, so this poison will not be harmful to his body.

If there's really no way to cure the poison, then we can only maintain the status quo.

Moreover, this toxin doesn't cause a constant odor; it only produces an odor when a person is excited or their body temperature rises.

Moreover, the emperor himself could not smell the odor, so it had no impact on him.

How could it not have an impact?

Because the emperor's poisoning was discovered, everyone in the harem was examined.

Only the Emperor and Consort Wang were poisoned; no other concubines showed any signs of poisoning.

This also indicates that the emperor did not touch any other concubines after being poisoned.

This poison could only have been passed on to the Emperor by Xu Ruyi.

Meanwhile, several concubines were found to be pregnant.

This includes Consort Jiang, who recently entered the palace.

Unexpectedly, as a newcomer, she became pregnant on her first night with the emperor.

As expected of someone carefully selected and sent to the palace by the Jiang family.

They are really good at giving birth.

Although the emperor was happy that so many of his concubines were pregnant, he couldn't be happy at all because he was poisoned.

Even the bestowal of rewards was handled by the Empress.

Jiang He naturally chose the best gifts to send to the Empress, letting her select the best ones.

Since it was something belonging to the Emperor, Jiang He didn't feel sorry for it and didn't hesitate to take it.

Consort Wang was furious when she learned that so many women were pregnant.

Those who were found to be pregnant were all from the Empress's side.

While the Empress is receiving so much good news, her situation is so tragic.

Moreover, because Consort Wang was excited, she emitted an unpleasant odor.

The palace servants quickly reminded Consort Wang.

Consort Wang quickly took a deep breath to calm herself down before going to bathe and change her clothes.

This kind of scene happens several times a day.

Consort Wang sometimes couldn't control her emotions at all.

It's incredibly frustrating.

At first, the Emperor felt some pity for Consort Wang.

It was his own fault that Consort Wang was poisoned.

However, the two eventually grew to dislike each other.

When you smell that odor on the other person, and think about how you also smell bad, you can't look them in the eye.

The Emperor is not coming.

Consort Wang also stopped going out, feeling that she would be met with strange looks whenever she did.

To mask the odor, Consort Wang would burn incense and take flower petal baths several times a day.

However, once Consort Wang got agitated, the stench emanating from her body became impossible to conceal.

Aside from Consort Wang, the other concubines in the harem were also being extremely cautious.

No one went to the emperor's court to compete for his favor anymore.

They couldn't bear the consequences of vying for favor.
