Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

After listening to the queen's advice, the emperor said nothing more. He waved his hand and told them to go in and get busy.

"My lady, I have already inquired about it. Something happened at Suiyuxuan."

After Songzhi inquired about it, she hurried in to report to Nian Shilan. Seeing that Nian Shilan didn't say anything, she continued, "It's Concubine Fang. She gave birth."

Nian Shilan, Jinxi, and even Zhou Ninghai who was standing outside the door, all had the same expression when they heard the news. They were undoubtedly shocked by the news.

It's only been a few months, even if it's premature, it doesn't have to be so early!

"Your Majesty, what does your Majesty think about Concubine Fang's premature birth?" Jin Xi said from the side, and it seemed that there was something else she was saying.

Nian Shilan did not answer immediately, but looked at Jinxi, thinking that she must know something.

"Your Majesty, you know that premature birth of about a month is normal, but Concubine Fang is like this, it is obvious that it is caused by someone."

How could Nian Shilan not know what Jinxi said, but this method was really chilling.

"You are right. In this palace, she is probably the only one who can be so cruel."

Nian Shilan did not specify who it was, but everyone knew tacitly that it was the one from Jingren Palace.

There are only two forces in the harem, one is the Queen and the other is Nian Shilan. Since Nian Shilan did not do this, it must be the Queen. Apart from the Queen, no one can do this.

"Songzhi, go to Yanqing Palace quickly. If Concubine Duan is here, invite her over."

Nian Shilan seemed to have suddenly thought of something and quickly gave orders.

"My lady, you are now recuperating behind closed doors. If I invite Concubine Duan to come over now, I'm afraid others will get suspicious if they see us."

Songzhi's consideration was not unreasonable. Now that Shilan said she was recuperating at home and could not see anyone, if she rashly invited Concubine Duan and was seen by others, she was afraid that the matter would be used to make a fuss.

"It's okay. Right now the entire harem is busy with the matter of Sui Yuxuan. No one will pay attention to Yikun Palace. Just go to Yanqing Palace and take the road with fewer people. As long as you are not seen by the Queen's group, you will be fine."

Nian Shilan thought that everyone was busy with Sui Yuxuan's affairs now, and naturally nothing was more important than the Dragon Clan, including the Queen Mother, whose eyes were probably on Sui Yuxuan now.

If the child could really be born safely, the Queen Mother wouldn't even need to take tonic medicine.

"I pay my respects to Concubine Duan." Songzhi trotted along, breathing heavily.

Coincidentally, I finally met Concubine Duan at the gate of Yanqing Palace. Looking at Concubine Duan's appearance, she should be going to Suiyuxuan as well.

"Songzhi, why are you here?"

Concubine Duan looked at Songzhi carefully, panting, and had not yet recovered. She didn't know how fast she had run all the way. However, Songzhi must have come to see her because of Concubine Hua's arrangement. But isn't Concubine Hua recuperating now? Why did she send Songzhi here again?

"Your Majesty, Concubine Hua asks you to go to Yikun Palace." Songzhi said in a low voice.

Fortunately, I came here running. If I had arrived a step later, I would not have been able to see Concubine Duan. If I really couldn't find Concubine Duan, I don't know if it would have delayed Concubine Hua's important event.

Concubine Duan was stunned for a while, then agreed: "Okay, I haven't seen Concubine Hua for a long time."

"Jixiang, let's go to Yikun Palace."

Following Songzhi, we walked along a sparsely populated path and arrived at Yiku Palace. Although the road was steep and difficult to walk on, it was closer and safer.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Duan is here." As soon as she entered the room, Songzhi brought Concubine Duan to Nian Shilan.

"elder sister."

Looking at Nian Shilan's appearance, Concubine Duan knew that Nian Shilan was fine. She was in good health and mental state, and did not look sick at all.

"I was just about to go to Suiyuxuan when I met Songzhi at the gate of Yanqing Palace. I knew it was you who asked her to come to me. Tell me, what's the matter?"

Yanqing Palace is a bit remote and not many people go there on weekdays, so Concubine Duan knew that Songzhi's appearance there was no coincidence.

"Sister, you understand me after all." Nian Shilan came in, pulling Concubine Duan's sleeve and said.

"Mrs. Fang's child is only five or six months old now. Don't you think it's too early? Although it's premature, it's too early."

Concubine Duan thought about it and realized that what Nian Shilan said was indeed the case. Everything was fine a few days ago, but suddenly the news spread in the palace that Concubine Fang was about to give birth. She was quite shocked when she heard it at the time.

Even though I have never given birth, I have lived for so many years that I do understand a little bit.

"Yes, I thought it was just a rumor when I heard it, until Xiao Xiazi came to Yanqing Palace and told me that Sui Yuxuan was about to give birth, so I packed up and hurried over."

"I asked my sister to come here because I wanted her to help keep an eye on what the child born by Fang Guiren looks like."

Nian Shilan thought, since it was a premature birth and artificial, the child would be more or less different from a normal full-term baby.

"Sister, aren't you going to Suiyuxuan?"

From what Nian Shilan meant, asking me to help watch over her, I guess she wouldn't go to Sui Yuxuan. Originally, all the concubines with higher status should have attended this occasion.

"Sister, you know that my younger sister is still recuperating. It would not be a good idea for her to show up rashly. I'll have to trouble you with this matter."

Nian Shilan pulled Concubine Duan's sleeve and said this in a coquettish manner, making it difficult for Concubine Duan to refuse.

"Okay, I promise you. Really, I can't do anything about you."

Concubine Duan patted Nian Shilan's hand and said with a smile, Nian Shilan now claimed to the public that she was recuperating, so her sudden appearance in front of the emperor and the empress did not arouse any suspicion.

It's only a glance, of course I will help her. It's not easy to live in this harem, and it would be even more difficult without a close sister.

"I have to go quickly. It would not be appropriate to go too late." After saying that, Concubine Duan stood up and was about to leave.

After spending some time in the Yikun Palace, I had to speed up my pace. Shuiyuxuan was not close to begin with, and after going to the Yikun Palace, it seemed even farther away.

"I send my regards to the Emperor and Queen."

As soon as I walked to the door of Suiyuxuan, I heard bursts of wailing from inside. When I came in, I saw the emperor and the empress sitting on the couch with gloomy faces. It seemed that Concubine Fang's situation was not optimistic either.

The emperor and the empress did not speak, so Concubine Duan continued, "How is Concubine Fang? Did she give birth?"

After Concubine Duan finished speaking, she looked around and saw that everyone had a serious expression.

"It's been a while, but the baby hasn't been born yet. I'm worried that Concubine Fang is having a difficult delivery." The Queen said with a frown, looking worried.
