Two days have passed since Zhen Li moved in to the inner palace, she was now a member of the Crown Prince's harem ranking as madame.
Xin was not too pleased about this, all she could think about for the past two days was ways to get rid of Zhen Li once and for all.

"Maybe if we tie her up and throw her body in the sea for sharks to eat we can bring an end to her once and for all", Xin said to her maid Bai who was dressing her.

"Don't stress too much over her your highness she won't last long in this palace, I will make sure of it!" Bai reassured the princess who had a wide smirk on her face.

"The empress invited me for lunch this afternoon I'm sure Zhen Li will be there so I must look my best, I will show her that only I can be the future empress not her lowly self!"

Bai nodded and continued to dress Xin with fine pink silks when suddenly there was a soft knock on the door.

"Your highness your mother lady Yang is here to see you", Said an eunuch outside the room.

"She may enter," Xin said pointing for her maids to leave the room except Bai.
Lady Yang entered the room wearing her favourite expensive fur and jewelry, she walked towards her daughter with pride.

"My daughter, come here I've missed you dearly you never come visit your poor mother anymore", Lady Yang said hugging her daughter.

"Mother thank you for visiting me, I apologise for not making time for you but it's been very hard for me since the Empress is hard trying to destroy me, she began by taking away the chance of me ever having children of my own now with that whore Zhen Li!" Cried the princess in her mother's arms.

"Zhen Li? As in the the youngest daughter of the Zhen clan? How is the Empress using her against you?" Xin's mother looked at her concerned.

"Yes her! She's now a member of Jians harem, and I don't know what do to mother! I'm scared Jian will choose her as his Empress and not me".

"True she is a great threat especially with Empress Zhangs support plus eliminating her won't be easy, but don't worry too much my dear I will come up with something don't do anything for now be very low key", her mother said clasping her cheeks to help her calm down.

"So you want me to sit back and do nothing? Mother you know very well I can't do that! It will eat me up everyday", the princess said turning her face away from her mother irritated.

"Your highness I suggest you listen Older miss she knows best," Bai said slightly bowing.
"Thank you Bai, Xin I'm serious play nice because when it's time to carry out my plan I don't want you to be suspected, afterall the Empress will do anything to see your downfall", Lady Yang said in a very serious tone.

"I guess you do have a point, anyway enough about that lowly skank how is the pregnant maid doing? I'm scared she will end up giving birth to a girl", Xin asked sitting down on her pink velvet coach pouring tea for her mother.
"She is doing just fine I'm making sure she is healthy and fit to give birth, boy or girl you must have a child my dear to secure your position as Crown princess", Her mother replied taking a sip from her tea.

"I don't know how I'm going to keep up my act Empress Zhang will surely find out".

"You will have to find an good excuse to leave the palace for a a few months so she won't suspect a thing".

"I'll figure something out, I must get going the Empress is expecting me for lunch, mother thank you for visit", Xin said getting up to leave.

"Go ahead I'll wait for your return", her mother smiled watching her leave.
