After Hua Fei was reborn, she became the white moonlight of Pangju

Chapter 129: Life and Death for the Qing Dynasty

The emperor smiled mysteriously, "Prince Guo."

The Queen Mother was also surprised. "Normally, I haven't seen Prince Guo and Concubine Hua interacting with each other. I guess he is worried that Your Majesty may have missed something, so he asked."

The emperor nodded without any suspicion.

"My son thinks so too. Nian Gengyao is Nian Gengyao, but Hua Fei is Hua Fei. After all, she has sincerely served my son for so many years."

The Queen Mother seemed to sense something as well.

"These days, Concubine Hua often comes to Shoukang Palace to serve me and entertain me, but she never mentions Nian Gengyao. She is a sensible person!"

The emperor was quite surprised when he heard this.

"Has Concubine Hua been taking care of you all these days?"

"It's not all Concubine Hua, Concubine Hui also comes, but Concubine Hua comes more often." The Queen Mother sighed, "Concubine Hua is filial to me and sincere to the Emperor. The Emperor should not let her down!"

"Don't worry, Madam. My son will never let Hua Fei down. Tomorrow I will draft an edict to promote Hua Fei to Imperial Noble Consort."

When the Queen Mother heard the decision, she nodded with satisfaction.

After seeing off the empress dowager, the emperor thought about the period of time when Nian Gengyao neglected Concubine Hua. After reviewing the memorials in the evening, he went to the Yikun Palace.

It was already very late when the emperor arrived.

He wanted to see what Concubine Hua was doing at the moment, so he walked in quietly without notifying anyone.

Outside the palace, Concubine Hua was holding a yellow lantern, waiting for him quietly.

The lantern emitted light, reflecting the clear light in Concubine Hua's phoenix eyes.

"Your Majesty, you are finally here!"

After seeing the emperor, the light in Hua Fei's eyes became brighter.

She almost ran into the emperor's arms.

"I thought the Emperor was going to forget about me!"

When the emperor saw that Concubine Hua was as happy and excited as a little girl when she saw him, the thread in his heart was touched again.

"How could I forget you?"

Concubine Hua hugged the emperor tightly and did not let go for a long time.

The emperor coaxed her softly for a long time before reluctantly letting her go. "Okay, it's so cold, do you want me to stay outside forever?"

Concubine Hua took the emperor's hand distressedly, "Quick, Your Majesty, please come into the room and stay."

When they got to the bedroom, they sat around the charcoal fire and gradually warmed up.

"Go and bring ginger soup to Concubine Hua." The emperor ordered Song Songzhi.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After Songzhi left in a hurry, the emperor covered Hua Fei's hand with his big hand and said distressedly: "Don't wait outside the door foolishly in the future."

Concubine Hua looked at the emperor lovingly and shook her head.

"I just want to wait for the emperor at the door. How can the emperor understand the anticipation and joy of waiting? After all, the emperor has so many women, and they will not understand my painstaking efforts."

When Concubine Hua said this, the expression on her face was extremely shy. Looking at her like this, the Emperor couldn't help but pinch her rosy face.

"Are you angry with me? I've been busy lately and have neglected you." The emperor sighed. Thinking of the plotting against Nian Gengyao, he felt a little uneasy when facing Concubine Hua.

"How could I be angry with the emperor? The emperor is very busy, as long as he can come to see me occasionally, I will be satisfied."

Concubine Hua looked at the emperor with a smile.

The emperor smiled and avoided Hua Fei's gaze.

"It's getting late, let's go to bed early."

The curtain was gently lowered, the emperor glanced at the burning incense burner, turned over and pressed down Concubine Hua.

After waking up the next day.

Concubine Hua opened her eyes and was about to sit up when the Emperor pushed her back onto the bed.

"It's cold, you should sleep a little longer. I'm going to Yangxin Palace for breakfast."

"Your Majesty, I want to do it for you."

"You have just recovered. After some time, when you are warmer, you can do it for me again."

The emperor covered Concubine Hua with a quilt and refused to let her get up.

Seeing this, Concubine Hua no longer forced it.

She held the emperor's hand and gently said, "Your Majesty, the weather is cold, please take care of yourself."

The emperor nodded and patted the back of her hand gently.

"I remember that."

Watching the emperor walking away in a hurry, Concubine Hua's heart slowly sank.

The emperor was already preparing to deal with his brother Nian Gengyao.

On the surface, the emperor turned a blind eye to Nian Gengyao's series of rebellious acts, as if he was protecting Nian Gengyao.

In essence, the emperor wanted to let Nian Gengyao make more mistakes so that he could execute him mercilessly when the time came.

Concubine Hua couldn't bear to watch her brother Nian Gengyao die.

Ever since the emperor came to Yiku Palace that day, he has hardly ever set foot in the harem.

Concubine Hua knew that the time for the Emperor to take action against his brother Nian Gengyao was getting closer.

She could no longer risk leaving the palace, so she could only ask Songzhi to find a way to call Nian Gengyao over.

"Just tell him that I'm seriously ill and want to see him."

When Nian Gengyao heard that Concubine Hua was ill, he thought of their years of brotherly love and finally went to the palace.

"Greetings to Concubine Hua."

This time, Nian Gengyao was very knowledgeable about etiquette.

Concubine Hua got up from the couch and looked at Nian Gengyao and said leisurely: "Brother, you are so particular about etiquette in front of your sister? Why don't you remember it in front of the emperor?"

Nian Gengyao was originally kneeling on the ground with his head lowered.

Hearing Hua Fei's powerful voice, which did not sound like she was sick, he immediately raised his head.

Sure enough, he saw Hua Fei standing in front of him without him noticing when.

Nian Gengyao immediately became angry, "You lied to me?!"

Hua Fei smiled helplessly, "Brother and sister, I am not lying to you. Are you willing to come to the palace to see me?"

Nian Gengyao snorted coldly, "Since your majesty is not ill, I will take my leave now!"

Just as he was about to walk out the door, the palace gate was closed from the outside.

"Nian Shilan, what are you going to do?!" Nian Gengyao turned around and questioned Concubine Hua.

"Brother, I will give you another chance to live! Go confess your crime to the emperor now and resign from your position, and I, your sister, will save your life!"

Nian Gengyao sneered, "Brother, I am alive and well, why should I worry about my life?"

Hua Fei walked towards Nian Gengyao step by step, and said in a cold voice: "You bypassed the emperor and appointed officials privately, which is beyond your authority; you accepted gold and silver to recommend people who were on good terms with you, which is greed; you made the royal nobles kneel down and kowtow to you when they saw you, which is usurpation! You are committing crimes and have no respect for the emperor and his subjects! You are so lawless, if you don't apologize, you will suffer a disaster sooner or later!"

“Enough!” Nian Gengyao shouted, the veins on his neck bulging.

"Nian Shilan, I have fought for the Qing Dynasty for so many years and fought hard for this bright future. You want me to give up just like that? Impossible!"

After Nian Gengyao finished speaking, he strode towards the door.

Looking at Nian Gengyao who insisted on his own way and had no idea that the crisis was approaching, Concubine Hua choked with anger.

"The Emperor is already investigating you, brother. Don't you understand?"
