Zhen Huan's face turned ugly since the emperor changed his words. Even if the emperor asked the imperial doctor to treat Shen Meizhuang, she would not be happy.

She was filled with confusion.

Concubine Hua is vicious and has repeatedly harmed her and sister Mei. Can the emperor really not see that?

It was clear that Liu Wei had been found, but the emperor was not willing to punish Concubine Hua severely for such a major matter of using a false pregnancy to slander the concubine.

Is it because he is worried about the Nian family, or is it because the emperor himself... is reluctant to part with it?

Zhen Huan was shocked and didn't want to believe this idea.

No, Concubine Hua is so vicious...

But the next moment, the emperor's question confirmed her thoughts.

"Huan Huan, Liu Han's matter wasn't arranged by you... deliberately, was it?"

The emperor's voice was low, and his dark eyes were full of deep meanings that Zhen Huan could not understand.

Zhen Huan's eyes widened and she couldn't believe her ears.

How could the emperor question her like this? !

She was angry, and although she defended herself, her words were a bit sharper than usual.

In the end, he stubbornly maintained his saluting posture and refused to get up.

The emperor saw that her expression did not seem to be hypocritical, so he suppressed his suspicion, softened his attitude and let her stand up.

Zhen Huan just lowered her eyes and refused to get up. When the emperor saw this, his face instantly darkened.

To the emperor, Zhen Huan was just a special person in his heart - a substitute for Chun Yuan and an existence that could compete with Concubine Hua.

That's why he pampered her more, but he could dote on her, but he didn't like to see a substitute kicking his nose in his face.

"You have worked so hard on this matter, go back to Broken Jade Pavilion and rest."

Zhen Huan felt a chill in her heart.

She raised her eyes to look at the emperor, and the uncontrollable sourness welled up in her heart.

Who do you think you are in the eyes of the other person? Could it be that this year's loving time was all my wishful thinking?

How could the emperor...how could he treat her like this?

For a moment, Zhen Huan felt so weak that she could no longer care about being petty. He reluctantly stood up, excused himself to the emperor and walked out slowly.

She walked very slowly, with a faint expectation in her heart, expecting the emperor to stop her and explain to her that Concubine Hua was not punished severely but that she was only concerned about the Nian family.

But this expectation was ultimately misplaced.

Until Zhen Huan walked out of Yangxin Hall, she didn't hear any pleading to stay.

An Lingrong didn't know everything that happened in Yangxin Hall, but she had seen the plot and could roughly guess it.

When the soup was ready, An Lingrong also returned to the Yangxin Hall.

Before he entered, he saw an unfamiliar little eunuch standing outside of Yangxin Hall with a troubled face. When he saw her, it was as if he had seen his savior, and his eyes lit up.

He came forward with a smile on his face and said, "Concubine Xian, the emperor is waiting for you!"

An Lingrong stopped and looked at him with a smile, her eyes as clear as pool water seemed to be able to see through people's hearts: "Is Chang Zhen still here?"

The little eunuch smiled quickly and said, "Chang Zhen has been gone for a long time."

He looked around and reminded in a low voice: "When Zhen Chang left, his face turned pale, as if he had been frightened."

An Lingrong nodded, having a guess in his mind.

Entering the Yangxin Hall, An Lingrong immediately saw the emperor sitting there reading a book with no expression on his face.

Although the emperor has always been a person who keeps his emotions and anger secretive, based on her observation and analysis, he can still see his emotions.

For example, now, the lips are slightly pursed and the corners of the mouth are drooping. This is not happy.

Although she came in gently, the emperor was not deaf, so how could he not hear her?

An Lingrong wanted to catch Zhen Huan back.

She offended the emperor and ran away, leaving her alone for the emperor to take care of her. It was really upsetting.

Although he was confident that the emperor would not be angry with him, An Lingrong did not want him to be sulky.

Being sulky is not good for your health. The emperor is already old and has a young mind. What if he gets angry every day and his life is short?

She walked gently behind the emperor. The emperor was also aware of her actions and deliberately kept silent, just to see what Rong'er planned to do.

Suddenly, the emperor felt his eyes darken.

A pair of weak, boneless hands covered his eyes, and at the same time he chuckled like an oriole: "Does your Majesty know who this concubine is?"

The emperor was sulking, but as soon as An Lingrong came in, most of his anger disappeared. Now that he was being made such a fuss, the last of his anger was dissipated.

He couldn't help laughing, his tone was full of endearment, and he deliberately teased An Lingrong: "I can't remember, but Pianpian?"

Where is there Pianpian in the palace? An Lingrong's eyes flashed, and she immediately understood what the emperor meant, and started to act accordingly.

She snorted: "No, please guess again, Your Majesty."

"Is that Qingyun?" The emperor smiled so hard that he almost couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.

An Lingrong angrily pulled her hands away, held the emperor's face, and made him look at her, looking jealous.

"Who is Pianpian and who is Qingyun?! If the emperor doesn't tell you, you will never be able to drink Rong'er's soup again!"

The emperor laughed, pulled her into his arms, and gently touched her lips.

"Easy as a frightened bird, graceful as a wandering dragon. Glowing with autumn chrysanthemums and luxuriant spring pines. It seems as if the moon is covered by light clouds, and the snow flutters like the flowing wind."

A clear and gentle voice sounded in An Lingrong's ears. The emperor stared at her, his eyes exuding a tenderness that even he himself had not noticed.

"Why is Rong'er even jealous of herself?"

An Lingrong blushed and murmured shyly: "How can I be so good as my concubine?"

"In my heart, Luo Shen is a little inferior to Rong'er."

An Lingrong covered her face, as shy as a little white rabbit.

"Your Majesty, the soup is getting cold."

The emperor was so pleased by her actions that he kissed her again before letting the meal be served.

After finishing the meal, the two discussed "Luo Shen Fu" for a while.

When the emperor saw the sentence "Bright as the sun rises," he suddenly thought of Concubine Hua, and his heart was still a little heavy after all. He told An Lingrong about this incident and finally sighed: "When Shilan first entered the palace, she was bright and flamboyant. Even though her temperament was a bit unruly, she would not be so calculating. After all, she has changed..."

An Lingrong actually didn't want to express her opinion. After all, her character was that of a love-minded little girl who had no fight with the world. How could she target anyone in front of the emperor?

Moreover, both Concubine Hua and Zhen Huan occupy a certain place in the emperor's heart.

Although at present, the emperor's attitude towards Zhen Huan is very different from that in the original plot due to his own efforts.

But An Lingrong still didn't want to let down his guard.

After all, this is the heroine!

The heroine is the kind of unreasonable being who can make a comeback and meet noble people everywhere.

The emperor doesn't pay much attention to Zhen Huan now, but it doesn't mean that he won't empathize with her in the future.

The reason why An Lingrong was able to become King Juan was because she understood from a young age that she had to work hard to get something she wanted. She expected the worst-case scenario in everything she did.

She never pins her future on anyone and will never underestimate anyone.

But although An Lingrong didn't want to speak, he didn't want to let Cao Guiren go.

Who makes her a stingy and vindictive woman?
