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

"Sister can actually be so naive sometimes, haha."

An Lingrong sneered repeatedly.

But because she was too weak, she started coughing again after laughing.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

She coughed so much that she almost couldn't breathe.

Looking at An Lingrong gasping for breath, Zhen Huan felt angry and hateful.

But when she thought about the fact that her end was approaching, all her extreme emotions faded a little bit.

"It was because I was naive that I thought about the good things the emperor would give me, and I always thought about you, my sister. Now that I think about it, these benefits of mine are alms in your eyes, right?"

Zhen Huan looked at An Lingrong with a hint of sadness in her eyes.

Being in the harem, there were all kinds of open and covert struggles, and treacherous situations. She was wary of Concubine Hua and the Queen, but she never thought of being wary of An Lingrong.

"Isn't this almsgiving? It's like you saw that I was about to starve to death and you threw some leftovers to me, and you expect me to be grateful?"

An Lingrong looked at Zhen Huan with a sneer.

Zhen Huan also smiled, but the smile did not reach her eyes.

"So, the Queen's reward is not leftovers?"

An Lingrong's face changed and her eyes widened.

"You know it all?"

There was more and more disappointment in Zhen Huan's eyes.

"I was just guessing, but I didn't expect it to be true."

Only then did An Lingrong realize that Zhen Huan had tricked her.

Her originally arrogant look became evasive.

"Even the maids of Concubine Hua can bully and insult me. I am living in this deep palace and am not even as good as a servant! Sister, do you know?"

"Is this the reason why you turned to the Queen and harmed me? But I have harmed and bullied you before!"

Zhen Huan pressed An Lingrong.

Seeing that Zhen Huan was angry, An Lingrong felt relieved.

She smiled sinisterly.

"Sister, your biggest mistake is that you have won the emperor's favor! Even the cold and arrogant sister Mei can win the emperor's favor, why can't I!"

Looking at the completely unfamiliar An Lingrong, Zhen Huan sighed.

"You have brought this upon yourself. As sisters, I will consider this as your last journey."

Zhen Huan turned and looked at Xiao Yunzi, who placed a small stack of almonds in her hand next to An Lingrong's pillow.

“Since you feel your life is bitter, then eat this almond.”

An Lingrong looked at the almonds so close to her, grabbed some and put them into her mouth one by one.

Zhen Huan never looked at her again and turned away.

Just as she was about to walk out of the room, she heard An Lingrong's urgent shout from behind her.

"The Queen...Kill the Queen!"

Zhen Huan paused, but didn't turn her head.

After a moment, she strode out of the cold palace.

Looking at Zhen Huan's resolute back as she left, An Lingrong covered her neck with both hands, and her originally pale face turned red.

Not long after returning to Shuiyuxuan, news came that An Lingrong had died.

Zhen Huan sat on the chair tiredly and closed her eyes to rest.

When she thought of what An Lingrong had done, she felt a chill in her heart.

If it weren't for Concubine Hua who saved him time and time again, he might have died.

Nian Gengyao was sentenced to death, and Concubine Hua must have been very sad.

Thinking of this, Zhen Huan asked Song Zhi to make some appetizing and refreshing sweets to send to Concubine Hua later.

When she arrived at Yikun Palace, Zhen Huan realized that Concubine Hua had been lying in bed all day.

"The queen is too sad and has been bedridden. I'm afraid she can't see the young master."

Songzhi said apologetically to Zhen Huan.

Zhen Huan sighed and asked Jin Xi to give the food to Song Zhi.

"Tell the queen to be at ease, let her think about the Eighth Prince, and that life must go on."

"Thank you, Lady Wan, for your concern." Song Zhi knelt deeply and bowed to Zhen Huan.

Zhen Huan took a deep look at Concubine Hua's bedroom, which was covered with layers of curtains, and slowly turned and left.

Hua Fei's sadness indirectly reminded her of the Emperor's cruelty...

Hua Fei had been with him for many years, and even Nian Gengyao committed a serious crime, which could not be forgiven, let alone the fact that she was just the emperor's new favorite?

When Zhen Huan thought that the Emperor had personally planned to kill the baby in Concubine Hua's belly, she felt a pang of fear.

Will the emperor treat me like this one day?

----

"Nian Gengyao is dead, you can finally rest in peace."

The Queen Mother twisted the Buddhist beads in her hand and closed her eyes slightly.

"Yes, after Nian Gengyao died, I even slept soundly."

The emperor sat next to the empress dowager with a difficult smile on his face.

"Did Concubine Hua make a fuss?" The Queen Mother stopped twirling her Buddhist beads.

She turned her head and looked at the emperor with deep meaning in her eyes.

"Hua Fei is very sensible and didn't make a fuss."

When Concubine Hua was mentioned, the smile on the emperor's face faded a lot.

"Oh, it's hard for her that she didn't make trouble with you." The Queen Mother sighed and continued to play the Buddhist beads in her hand.

The emperor lowered his eyes and remained silent.

"I heard that she has been ill these days and can't get out of bed. Has the emperor ever visited her?"

"I don't know how to face Concubine Hua." The emperor said in a low voice.

"Then how does the emperor plan to deal with Concubine Hua?" The empress dowager opened her eyes this time and looked at the emperor meaningfully.

The emperor is her biological son, but because he was fostered in the palace of Imperial Noble Consort Tong Jia since childhood, he does not have a close relationship with her.

Therefore, even though they were biological mother and son, Empress Dowager Uya could not guess what her son was thinking.

Therefore, in daily interactions, the Queen Mother would rather ask a few more questions.

Because only in this way can the appearance of loving mother and filial piety be maintained.

"For many years, Concubine Hua has devoted herself to serving me. Although Nian Gengyao committed treason, she is innocent. I think that Concubine Hua's title of Imperial Noble Concubine does not need to be revoked and should be retained. She should continue to enjoy the same treatment as before."

The Queen Mother nodded, but then sighed again.

"It is Concubine Hua's luck that the Emperor is kind and sentimental, but I cannot figure out Concubine Hua's temperament. She used to be arrogant and domineering, but now she seems to be very sensible and reasonable. I am afraid that she will not be able to get over it, but will keep it to herself. If a person keeps something in his heart for too long, something bad will happen."

The emperor clenched the Buddhist beads in his hand and stood up.

"The Empress Dowager has reminded me, so I will go to see Concubine Hua right away."

"Go ahead and treat Concubine Hua well!"

The Queen Mother gave the Emperor some instructions.

During these days, Concubine Hua has come to serve her regardless of wind or rain. The Empress Dowager has no way to repay her and can only hope that the Emperor will treat Concubine Hua well.

"I'll remember that, son." The emperor rarely showed his obedient side.

The emperor left Shoukang Palace and hurried to Yiku Palace.

It was already evening, and half of the sky was dyed with the fiery red sunset.

The emperor got off the sedan chair, looked up at the sky, and walked towards the bedroom in the Yikun Palace.

"My lady, please eat something."

Songzhi knelt on the ground, holding a bowl of porridge in both hands, her eyes red from crying.

Concubine Hua smiled weakly.

"Go down, let me have a good sleep."

When the emperor stepped in and saw this scene, his heart suddenly tightened.

"Hua Fei, why are you so seriously ill?"
