Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

But Jianqiu looked indifferent and didn't take Huang Guiquan seriously at all.

Who is Jianqiu? She is a favorite of the Queen. How could she take a small steward of the Imperial Household Department seriously? Logically speaking, a figure like Jianqiu should be the one being courted by the Imperial Household Department.

Huanbi and Liuzhu looked at Huang Guiquan with disdain. Huang Guiquan was really a dog that looked down on others.

Similarly, she naturally disliked Jianqiu. So what if her master was the queen? She was still just a servant.

Huanbi and Liuzhu just stood aside, neither leaving nor making a sound, wanting to see what Jianqiu was coming here for. Wasn't it time to celebrate Princess Xuanshu's birthday? How come Jianqiu had time to come out now?

"Huang Guiquan, the Queen said that after the family banquet is over, she will go to Suiyuxuan to see Concubine Wan, so she asked me to come over to pick out some supplements. You can take them as you like."

Jianqiu spoke slowly, and seemed to find Huang Guiquan's expression a little unnatural.

Upon hearing the name of Sui Yuxuan, Huang Guiquan's face immediately turned sour. He had just made things difficult for Sui Yuxuan's palace maid, and the Queen was so sad about Sui Yuxuan. If it was really Sui Yuxuan's people who reported it to the Queen, he was afraid that he, the chief steward of the Imperial Household Department, would be in trouble.

However, Jianqiu's instructions could not be delayed, so Huang Guiquan hurried to get it for Jianqiu.

What? Wild ginseng, bird’s nest, and another box I’ve never seen before. But the box looks very exquisite and I can tell it’s a good thing.

"What is this? Huang Guiquan, don't try to fool the Empress by passing off inferior things as good ones."

Jianqiu took a quick look at the thing in front of her. Although the packaging was nice, she had never seen such a thing in her long time in the palace.

Humph, I really don’t know if Huang Guiquan is tired of living. Now he even dares to use these things to fool the Queen.

Having said that, Jianqiu disdainfully threw aside the things that Huang Guiquan had picked. Huanbi and Liuzhu didn't know what had happened either. They tried their best to look up, but they had no idea what it was that could have made Jianqiu so angry.

"Oh, my aunt, please don't throw it away. This thing is very valuable."

Jianqiu threw it away casually, which made Huang Guiquan very sad. He quickly ran over to pick it up, and held it in his arms to brush off the dust.

It seemed that after hearing what Huang Guiquan said, Jianqiu was a little moved. She calmed down a little and decided to continue listening to Huang Guiquan.

"Aunt Jianqiu, you don't know, this is a good thing, Dong'e Ejiao, it is tribute from outside, it is very rare, this thing is the best to replenish qi and blood."

Huang Guiquan looked like he understood a lot.

Good stuff?! It would have been fine if Huang Guiquan hadn’t said anything. After he said that, Jianqiu became even angrier.

"Huang Guiquan, you are really amazing. If this thing is so good, why don't you give it to the queen as a gift? What? Have you forgotten who is the master in the palace?!"

Jianqiu was so angry that she almost grabbed Huang Guiquan's ear to question him. Huang Guiquan was timid to begin with, and this frightened him even more.

Huang Guiquan actually understood what Jianqiu meant. Such things had happened before, and there was always a solution. Since it was to show filial respect to the empress, he would just go to show his respect later. Apart from anything else, the Imperial Household Department had a lot of good things.

Seeing Huang Guiquan's cowardly look, Jianqiu didn't care too much. As long as Huang Guiquan was sensible, it was enough.

"Dong'e Ejiao." Huanbi was still confused and repeated what Huang Guiquan had just said.

If even the Queen didn't know it, let alone Huanbi, she would naturally have never heard of it.

Huanbi spoke, and Jianqiu then noticed that there were two people standing next to them. If they hadn't said anything, she wouldn't have noticed them.

"These two." Jianqiu's gaze fell on Huanbi and Liuzhu.

The two little girls look very young and innocent at first glance.

Not to mention this Huanbi, she does look a bit like Wan Changzai.

The two of them saw Jianqiu's gaze fall on them, and they hurriedly headed towards Jianqiu. Since they were all servants, Jianqiu also responded.

"This is Miss Huanbi from Suiyuxuan, and this is Miss Liuzhu from Suiyuxuan."

Huang Guiquan was very kind-hearted at this moment and took the initiative to introduce himself to Jianqiu.

Huanbi and Liuzhu knew what Huang Guiquan meant. Seeing that Jianqiu was here and that Jianqiu mentioned that the Queen would go to Suiyuxuan, they were now trying to find a way to remedy the situation.

"What are you two doing in the Ministry of Internal Affairs now, young ladies?"

Jianqiu asked with a smile on her face, but she had her own little plans in mind while asking.

Don't you need to take care of Wan Changzai at Suiyuxuan now? Wan Changzai is still sick now, but these two people came out together.

Fortunately, Huanbi and Liuzhu didn't come out just for fun, they had a reason.

Huanbi sighed and continued, "Aunt, you don't know, it's almost winter now, and the weather is getting colder, so the young lady asked us to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get some fabrics so that we can make some winter clothes for ourselves."

Huanbi frowned and pouted, looking miserable.

It is really unexpected that Sui Yuxuan has reached the point where he has to make his own winter clothes. This matter should have been under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"Why do you, Suiyuxuan, want to make your own winter clothes? Do it yourself?"

Jianqiu asked again uncertainly. On the surface, Zhen Huan didn't look like someone who would do things on her own.

"Yes, our young master said that our Suiyuxuan is out of favor now. Besides, the Ministry of Internal Affairs is already busy at this time, so we should not trouble them anymore. We should do more things that we can do ourselves. We are idle anyway, and it will be difficult for our young master, whose body has not recovered yet."

Huanbi said this with a look of grievance on her face. Huang Guiquan, who was standing beside her, became nervous. Now, all these words were heard by Jianqiu. If he talked about what he had just done, he might...

Fortunately, Jianqiu didn't ask any further, and Huanbi didn't say anything else. But looking at Huang Guiquan's expression, he should be able to give some good information.

"Okay, I won't stay any longer. The Queen is still waiting."

Having said that, Jianqiu took the things and left.

This time, Huanbi is going to settle the score with Huang Guiquan.

As soon as Jianqiu left, Huang Guiquan looked at Huanbi with an embarrassed expression. He knew in his heart that the situation had changed.

"Miss Huanbi."

Huang Guiquan didn't know what to say at this moment, and he was regretting his attitude towards the two of them just now.

Everything was fine at first, but who would have thought that Jianqiu would come over, and it was because the Queen was going to Sui Yuxuan.
