Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 25: Palace Maid Li Jingui

She had no choice but to drink it because of her status. When the bowl was close to her mouth, it tasted extremely bitter. Li Wanting also knew some pharmacology. This was a bowl of contraceptive soup!!!

Although she worked for Yixiu, she was favored by the emperor, and Yixiu was still wary of her, fearing that her position would surpass hers.

This bowl of contraceptive soup was not a big deal for Li Wanting, because she already had Hongshi. Having many children was good, but with Hongshi, these were not so important.

Seeing her finish the bowl of medicine, Yixiu felt relieved and smiled with relief, because she herself had no children and she didn't want anyone else to have children. After drinking it, she returned to her room.

"Princess, why is the concubine like this? You listen to her in everything, but she still treats you like this." Cuiguo was dissatisfied. She watched her master suffer but she had no way to do anything, and complained.

"Forget it, she is just like that. I've gotten used to it. I just hope she can always protect Hongshi." Li Wanting sighed and released some of the pressure, but she didn't know that Hongshi, this child, would become hers if Yixiu took care of him.

"Have you seen the prince?" Li Wanting asked. She just missed Yinzhen. She was upset by Yixiu, so she hoped to get some comfort from Yinzhen.

"It seems that the prince has entered the palace and is drinking with the Tenth Master." Cuiguo replied.

"Coming to the palace to drink so early?" Li Wanting was puzzled. Drinking early in the morning was harmful to the body.

"Today seems to be the Tenth Master's birthday. Our prince has always had a good relationship with the Tenth Master, and drinking together is a common thing." Cuiguo said with a smile, telling Li Wanting to relax, saying that nothing would go wrong.

Little did they know that this time, something went wrong...

As night falls, the moonlight is exceptionally bright tonight, and it seems a bit strange...

"Jianqiu, has the prince returned home?" Yixiu closed her eyes and rubbed her head.

"Madam, the prince hasn't come back yet." Jianqiu muttered softly.

"What? Not back yet?" Hearing this, Yixiu opened her eyes wide and frowned. It was already so late, and she never drank so late. Why was he still not back so late today? Yixiu couldn't help but worry.

As the two were talking, they heard a knock on the door, "Knock, knock, knock."

"Who is it?" Jianqiu shouted.

"Madam, are you asleep? I am Su Peisheng." Even though Jianqiu was in a bad mood, Su Peisheng still spoke calmly.

When the two people in the room heard that it was Su Peisheng, they smiled at each other and were extremely happy, wondering if Yinzhen had returned. "Jianqiu, go open the door quickly, maybe the prince is back." Yixiu hurriedly ordered. At this moment, she didn't want Su Peisheng to wait outside the door for another second.

The door opened, "Eunuch Su, where is the prince?" Jianqiu looked behind Su Peisheng, but did not see Yinzhen. The smile on her face gradually disappeared.

When Su Peisheng saw Jianqiu, he held his breath and went into the house, reporting to Yixiu in person, "I am here to pay my respects to Madam Fu Jin. It is my fault for bothering Madam Fu Jin so late at night."

"It's okay, get up. But is the prince back? What does the prince want to say?" Yixiu asked with concern. Thinking that Yinzhen had returned, she was about to get up to see him, but Su Peisheng stopped her.

"Fujin, the prince will not be back today. He has already rested in the palace. You should also rest early. I have to go back to serve you, so I'll take my leave now." Su Peisheng bent over, took a few steps back and came out.

He knew that Yixiu would be angry if Yinzhen didn't come back, so he didn't dare to look at her face.

Coming out of the room, Su Peisheng breathed a sigh of relief, but was stopped by Jiang Fuhai outside the door. He stepped forward and asked, "Eunuch Su, I just heard that the prince is resting in the palace. Where is he resting?"

Hearing this, Su Peisheng rolled his eyes at Jiang Fuhai, who was grinning, and said unhappily, "Just do your job well and don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. Otherwise, you won't even know where your head is."

Su Peisheng's words frightened Jiang Fuhai so much that he immediately shut up, "Goodbye, Eunuch Su."

After returning to the palace, he continued to stand guard at the door of Yinzhen's room, listening to the noise inside the room, and called Xiao Xiazi to his side.

"Master." Xiao Xiazi looked well-behaved and honest, looking at Su Peisheng innocently.

"Go and find out what the maid's name is. She's very lucky." Su Peisheng pouted. Xiao Xiazi glanced at Su Peisheng and seemed to understand, so he went to do it immediately.

After Xiao Xiazi left, Su Peisheng stood outside the door, listening to the sounds in the house, frowned, and then picked up cotton to plug his ears.

As Yinzhen's personal servant, this kind of thing happened to him all the time. After plugging his ears, he felt much quieter and fell into a nap without realizing it...

Prince Yong's Mansion, Nian Shilan Fangzhong...

"Concubine, Concubine, I heard that the prince hasn't come back yet, and Concubine is in a bad mood." Songzhi ran to Nian Shilan's bed and whispered. Nian Shilan turned around in a daze, "What?"

"The prince hasn't come back yet." Songzhi repeated in a low voice.

"Where did you go?" Nian Shilan asked casually, without much concern.

"The prince went to the palace and I heard he won't be back tonight."

Hearing this, Nian Shilan became interested. She must have known something. She sat up suddenly and thought for a while. She calculated that Hongli's birthday would be in a few months. So tonight! It would probably be Li Jingui!

Nian Shilan sneered, "I guess Mrs. Fu is having a headache again." Songzhi looked at Nian Shilan with a puzzled look on her face, somewhat puzzled.

"Why did Concubine say that?"

"It's okay. It's late. Go to bed."

After saying that, she turned around and fell asleep, not caring about Yinzhen's affairs at all.

This was another sleepless night for Yixiu. How much did Yinzhen drink that he couldn't come back, or maybe there was something in the palace that attracted him...

"Master, Master." Xiao Xiazi patted Su Peisheng gently to wake him up.

Su Peisheng was frightened and immediately came to his senses. Looking at Xiao Xiazi in front of him, he breathed a sigh of relief and teased him again, "You little bastard, do you want to scare your master to death?" Xiao Xiazi scratched his head at a loss.

"How can a disciple bear to scare his master to death?"

"You're so smooth-talking. How are you doing? Who is the palace maid in the room?"

"I have already inquired about it. The palace maid inside is called Li Jingui. She works at Tonghuatai. I just heard that this palace maid looks a bit like the late wife." Xiao Xiazi stared at Su Peisheng.

Hearing this, Su Peisheng immediately understood everything. No wonder Yinzhen didn't even return to the palace. It turned out that he met someone who looked similar to the late wife. "Forget it, just serve her well from now on." Su Peisheng turned his head and looked at the room behind him. The lights were off and it was quiet...
