Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

"Well, it's getting late, let's set off quickly," said the emperor.

After a brief chat, the group set off.

"Congratulations to the emperor."

After the emperor left, everyone stood at the door for a while and then went back.

When the emperor is away, the harem belongs to the queen.

It’s nothing serious. You just need to say hello every day and then go back.

"Your Majesty's tour to the south to provide disaster relief must go smoothly."

The Queen loves the Emperor the most, so naturally she hopes that everything goes smoothly for him.

"The Queen is so thoughtful. I'm sure the Emperor will be very touched after hearing this."

Concubine Hua glanced at the Queen, then immediately looked away.

"Hua Fei, what do you mean by this?"

Concubine Qi said again.

"Hmph, it doesn't mean anything. It's good for the emperor if he succeeds."

Every time they paid their respects, only the Queen, Concubine Hua, and Concubine Qi talked a lot. The others didn't say anything at all. Listening to these three people quarreling was like watching a play.

"It's been a few days since the emperor left. I think he should be here by now."

Concubine Duan said on the side. This will save these people from making a fuss.

Nian Shilan thought, the emperor has arrived, and her brother should have arrived a long time ago. She wondered if her brother was ready. She should not make the emperor angry.

Along the way, the emperor saw many displaced people. The closer he got to Sichuan, the more homeless people there were.

As an emperor, he naturally could not understand the suffering of the people.

Su Peisheng and Prince Guo naturally saw clearly the suffering of the people.

It is hard not to be moved when watching it.

There are endless wailings, the poor get poorer and the rich get richer.

"Come on, come on, everyone, come quickly, we have food to eat today." A man in tattered clothes and covered in dirt shouted.

When they heard that there was food to eat, the hungry people naturally got up and went there quickly, as if there would be no food left if they went too late. A group of people flocked to the place.

This would undoubtedly not attract the attention of the Emperor and Prince Guo.

"Su Peisheng, who is he?" After hearing this, the emperor hurriedly asked Su Peisheng.

The emperor was wondering, the weather was dry and the crops had not yielded any harvest, so where would he get food?

"Your Majesty, he is a poor commoner. There are countless poor commoners around, and they seem to be homeless. There are also old people, children, and pregnant women." Prince Guo replied.

Prince Guo looked at this shocking scene, then looked at himself. What he ate, wore, used, and lived in was all finery. It is said that being content is the key to happiness. Prince Guo now understood.

"Go and see."

The emperor said calmly that he wanted to see where the food came from in the face of this natural disaster.

"Yes."

The group followed these poor people. They would definitely not go wrong if they followed them.

Not long after we walked, we saw more and more people gathering in the city, and the small disaster relief stall was surrounded by people.

The emperor also walked forward to take a look.

"Your Majesty, there are many people here with mixed eyes, please be careful."

Su Peisheng's face was full of worry. After all, when the emperor was away from home, the emperor's safety was the most important thing. If anything happened to the emperor, he would not be able to bear the blame.

The emperor ignored Su Peisheng and continued moving forward.

When Prince Guo saw that Su Peisheng could no longer persuade him, he said, "Your Majesty, you are the emperor, so let me go and check it out."

When Su Peisheng heard this, he quickly agreed.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Prince Guo is right. I will wait here with you."

After being persuaded by the two, the emperor finally agreed.

"Well, you should be careful too."

To be honest, among all the brothers, only the Seventeenth Brother can share some of the responsibilities with me, and he is not a competitive person, so I can rest assured to leave the work to him.

Prince Guo didn't say anything. He simply bowed and left. After all, when he was away from home, he couldn't be too ostentatious and reveal his identity. To others, he just said that he was a wealthy businessman.

As his sister Nian Shilan had said, Nian Gengyao rushed to the disaster area early in the morning to provide relief and built a number of temporary residences.

Prince Guo came closer and naturally saw him at a glance.

Nian Gengyao also knew that the emperor had also set out, so he was naturally on guard at all times. Before Prince Guo saw Nian Gengyao, Nian Gengyao had already noticed him long before.

The moment Prince Guo saw Nian Gengyao, he had an indescribable feeling. He always felt that Nian Gengyao was not the kind of person who would do such a good deed.

Forget it, never mind for now, I’ll go back and report to the emperor first.

"Your Majesty, the person who is providing disaster relief is none other than the Governor-General of Sichuan and Shaanxi, Nian Gengyao, also known as General Nian."

"Oh?" The emperor's reaction was the same as Prince Guo's, but also somewhat different.

I also became suspicious.

The emperor was thinking, what was Nian Gengyao's purpose in doing this? Was it simply out of kindness, or was there some other purpose? Was it to make the people remember his kindness, listen to him, and thus win their hearts?

Although the emperor was suspicious, if Nian Gengyao did not do this, he would undoubtedly be guilty, as he knew that the people were in trouble but did not take any measures.

"Go get him."

The emperor wanted to see what Nian Gengyao was up to.

Was it really someone's instructions that led him to come here to win over the people and attempt a rebellion?

"Yes."

Prince Guo went there again immediately.

Prince Guo walked through the crowd and came to Nian Gengyao.

Seeing Prince Guo standing in front of him, Nian Gengyao was about to kneel down to pay his respects, but was interrupted by Prince Guo: "There are too many people here, come over and talk."

Afterwards, Nian Gengyao handed over the work in his hands to his subordinates, and he went with Prince Guo to establish the emperor.

As they walked along the way, they asked, "Why is Prince Guo here? Are you here to have fun? It's dry here, and there's really nothing fun to do."

Nian Gengyao said this hypocritically. After all, Prince Guo just loved to play. Saying this would allow him to know the purpose of Prince Guo's trip without making him suspicious.

"Not only the little prince is here, the emperor is here too."

"Your Majesty." Nian Gengyao looked as if his eyes were about to pop out of his head.

The pace became faster.

Sure enough, the emperor was standing in front, wearing casual clothes, which looked very different from the majestic emperor in the court every day.

"Your humble servant pays his respects to His Majesty." Nian Gengyao knelt down and saluted politely.

"I wonder why the emperor is here?"

"Nian Gengyao, very good. I want to ask you this question. Why are you here?" The emperor asked back, wanting to see how Nian Gengyao would answer.

"Your Majesty, since I heard about the drought in Sichuan and Shaanxi, I have been unable to sleep all day and night, thinking only of helping Your Majesty. I rushed here at full speed to provide disaster relief. I couldn't bear to see these people being displaced, suffering and starving. As the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, if I can't do something for the people, wouldn't I be failing Your Majesty's grace?"
