Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Since the Queen Mother asked Jianqiu to bring gifts, Concubine Fang was naturally very happy and felt that she was valued by the Queen Mother.

"Aunt, please thank the Queen on my behalf. I will go to thank the Queen in person one day."

"You're welcome, young master." Jianqiu nodded slightly and left.

After all, this trip was not in vain. The main purpose was to see how Concubine Fang was doing, whether she was behaving herself, and whether the baby in her belly could be born. This was what the Queen Mother cared about most.

"Ying'er, please escort Aunt Jianqiu out properly." Concubine Fang hurriedly instructed. Jianqiu was a person close to the Queen, so she couldn't be treated lightly.

After Jianqiu left, Concubine Fang picked up the box of Dong'e Ejiao and started to look at it. She had never seen such good stuff in her life. She had to say that the Queen was really generous.

"From what I can see, the Queen Mother is really good to the young lady. She is not stingy at all with such good things." Ying'er also felt that the Queen Mother was generous.

"Yes, keep it well. One day, find an opportunity to take it out of the palace to honor your mother."

As she said this, Concubine Fang handed the Dong'e Ejiao to Ying'er to keep. The first thing she thought of was to honor her mother.

"Such a good thing, why don't you eat it yourself?"

When she thought of her mother, Concubine Fang couldn't help but sigh, "Alas, although I come from a prominent family, even with this status, my father has many young and beautiful concubines, and the youngest one is only a few years older than me. My mother is now old and ugly, and my father has so many beautiful concubines. How can my mother have an easy life? So I'd better leave this Dong'e Ejiao to my mother. I am in this palace. As long as I can gain the favor of the emperor, do I have to worry about not having these good things?"

Concubine Fang looked at her growing belly and said with a smile, "Now that I have this child, I am even less afraid. I will be promoted step by step, from concubine to concubine, noble concubine, and imperial noble concubine. One day, I will be able to surpass Concubine Hua."

"Yes, my lady is absolutely right." Ying'er also echoed.

But all this is just Concubine Fang's own wishful thinking. She even compares herself with Concubine Hua, without thinking, do she deserve it? It's not even known whether she can live to see that day, and she still dreams of being the most favored in the harem?!

Nian Shilan was sitting in the Yiku Palace, with nothing to do.

"Jinxi, accompany me to the Yangxin Palace to see the emperor."

The Hall of Mental Cultivation is the emperor's study and the place where government affairs are handled. Normally, concubines are not allowed to enter and leave the Hall of Mental Cultivation at will.

"It's probably not in accordance with the rules for Your Majesty to go to the Yangxin Palace at this time. If the Empress Dowager knew about this, she would probably be angry again." Jin Xi kindly reminded her. From this moment on, she was really concerned about Concubine Hua and took care of everything for her, like an old nanny who was always worried.

Nian Shilan just smiled gently, but did not stop putting on her clothes, nor did she say anything.

"Aunt Jingxi has stayed in the greenhouse for too long. She doesn't know that you can enter and exit the Palace of Tranquil Longevity at will, but this is a privilege given by the Emperor. Only the Empress can enter and exit at will. It is certainly not allowed for others, but it is okay for our Empress Hua." Songzhi said to Jingxi with a smile while helping Nian Shilan to dress.

After hearing this, Jin Xi understood that since Concubine Hua was the most favored concubine in the harem, it was normal for the emperor to show her favor.

When I was serving the Dowager Concubine, the late emperor had treated Shufei in the same way.

Nian Shilan didn't want to go to the Yangxin Palace to visit the emperor. She just wanted Su Peisheng to meet Cui Jinxi and create a chance for the two to talk.

I think Su Peisheng would also like to see Jinxi.

Jin Xi didn't say anything else and supported Nian Shilan all the way to the Yangxin Palace.

"Empress Hua is here, please let Eunuch Su know."

A familiar voice sounded in Su Peisheng's ears, gentle, steady, and heartwarming.

This voice is naturally easy to distinguish, it is Cui Jinxi's voice.

But thinking about it carefully, Jinxi is working in the greenhouse now. I sent Jinxi there because I thought it was more relaxing there. So why would Jinxi appear outside the Palace of Tranquil Longevity at this moment?

Thinking of this, Su Peisheng felt lost again.

"Eunuch Su?"

Seeing Su Peisheng stunned, Jinxi shouted again.

But it sounds like Jinxi's voice.

"Hey." Su Peisheng agreed and slowly raised his head. The person and face in front of him was Jinxi!

Jinxi, whom I knew in my early years!

Just as Su Peisheng was about to ask, Jinxi quickly reminded him with a look, asking him to go in and pass the message quickly so as not to keep Concubine Hua waiting for too long.

It can be said that these two people are really in sync with each other. Su Peisheng immediately understood what was going on and ran in quickly.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Hua is here and is waiting outside the Yangxin Palace."

"Hua Fei is here."

The emperor quickly put down the memorial in his hand and said, "Tell her to do her best. It's cold outside. Don't let her catch a cold."

"Whoo."

"Your Majesty, please go in quickly. The Emperor is waiting."

Su Peisheng quickly invited Concubine Hua in, as he also wanted to talk to Cui Jinxi as soon as possible.

"Thank you, eunuch." Concubine Hua thanked Su Peisheng politely and hurried in.

"I send my regards to the Emperor. May the Emperor be blessed with peace and happiness."

Nian Shilan knelt on the ground and saluted the emperor politely, holding in her hand some snacks she had made in her small kitchen.

"Get up quickly." The emperor said as he pulled Nian Shilan up.

"Why are your hands so cold?"

It was freezing outside, and after walking such a long way, Concubine Hua's hands were naturally cold. The Emperor looked at her with eyes full of pity.

"What's in that hand?"

The emperor also noticed what Concubine Hua was holding in her hand and thought it should be for him.

"Your Majesty has good eyesight. This was specially made by the kitchen and brought to Your Majesty."

Nian Shilan said with a smile, but even though she said that, she was the only one who knew how disgusted she felt in her heart every time she faced this man.

"The food in Yikun Palace is always the best. I like it too. Why did you suddenly think of coming here today?"

"Humph, I am here. Is Your Majesty unhappy? Of course it is because I miss you. If Your Majesty does not allow me to come, I will not come again."

Nian Shilan pretended to be angry.

The emperor knew that Concubine Hua was being petty with him, and he was happy to indulge her. "How could I not be happy? If I really handle state affairs here, it would be a great pleasure to have a beautiful lady by my side."

Su Peisheng outside the door finally saw Cui Jinxi.

Jinxi, on the other hand, seemed a little reserved.

"Jinxi, it's been a long time since we last met."
