Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

The one who was speaking was Concubine Qi. She was naturally happy. She was not favored and the Emperor would not usually visit her, so she could only hope for family banquets.

"What's the matter, Sister Qi Fei, has Hongshi grown taller again?"

Seeing Concubine Qi speaking, Nian Shilan couldn't help but mock her.

After Nian Shilan said this, Concubine Qi's smiling face immediately disappeared, and she was really not in a good mood at all.

However, thinking that she would be able to meet the emperor soon, Concubine Qi did not argue with Nian Shilan.

She has always been like that for so many years. I know it and I also know that I can't win the argument, so I won't argue with her.

Seeing this, the Queen quickly changed the subject: "Well, now the weather is gradually getting cooler. After we prepare the family banquet, it's almost time for us to return to the capital."

The queen didn't think much of it. It was normal for the emperor to hold a family banquet. However, in Nian Shilan's eyes, this matter was not that simple, and it would not be as calm as she thought.

After explaining almost everything, the queen told everyone to go back.

By the time the day of the family banquet arrived, almost all the concubines had arrived.

Nian Shilan arrived a little later. She took a rough look and found that her seat was the same as in her previous life, next to Concubine Duan. That was good, this way the whole banquet would not be boring. At least she could have a few words with Concubine Duan.

"Concubine Hua is here!" With the eunuchs' shouts outside, Concubine Hua came slowly under the gaze of everyone!

There were quite a lot of people following Concubine Hua, including Jinxi and Songzhi.

Songzhi is his dowry maid, so naturally he has to take her with him, as well as Jinxi. With Jinxi, he can naturally get twice the result with half the effort in everything he does.

I'm afraid this family dinner is like the Hongmen Banquet, which is difficult to deal with.

"I pay my respects to the Emperor and the Empress."

"Shilan, come on, sit down."

When the emperor saw Nian Shilan coming, he was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He quickly arranged for Concubine Hua to sit down.

The queen felt really uncomfortable watching this.

"Today is a family dinner, everyone please don't be restrained."

The emperor was in high spirits, so he inevitably said a few more words. He glanced around and said, "I wonder where this old Seventeenth has gone off to again."

Following the emperor's voice, everyone looked towards Prince Guo's seat, and it was empty, just like usual.

Fearing that the emperor would be embarrassed, the queen spoke first: "Seventeenth brother is the most playful, Your Majesty does not need to worry about it, he may come over soon."

I have to say that Empress Yixiu did a really good job. Internally, she obeyed the emperor's words, and externally, she always protected the emperor's face.

Even if these concubines don't say anything, it's inevitable that the princes will think too much.

If people think too much about whether the emperor has no dignity and majesty, the court will be in turmoil.

"Well, Old Seventeen's temper has always been like this."

The emperor exchanged a few simple greetings and said nothing more.

There was nothing special about this banquet. It was the same as all the other ones, just some singing and dancing. There was nothing new.

Looking at these dancers, the emperor's lustful expression now seemed extremely disgusting in Nian Shilan's eyes!

The noisy environment, coupled with the light wine in front of them, made everyone more or less tipsy, so no one paid much attention to the Queen's actions.

"Your Majesty, every family banquet is filled with the same songs and dances. There is really no novelty at all. It's boring, really boring!"

Prince Dun spread his hands and sat there with disdain, as if he wanted the emperor to coax him.

Saying this openly in front of everyone must have attracted the emperor's attention. Since he said it was boring, he couldn't lose face.

If the things in this palace are not as good as those in Prince Dun's Palace, wouldn't it be a joke?

The Emperor knew that the Tenth Prince had always had a bad temper. Although he was a little unhappy, today was a family dinner, so he didn't want to argue with him.

"Tenth Master, what do you want to see?"

The Emperor asked back, and from what Prince Dun said, it seemed as if he had seen better shows than these.

"I have heard that the ladies in your harem all have special skills. Your Majesty, why don't you let us see them for ourselves?"

This Prince Dun is really fearless. He dares to say such words. Isn't this a clear provocation to the emperor's majesty? !

Nian Shilan couldn't help but take a breath when she heard these familiar words. Looking at the trend, she was afraid that a stunning dance would be performed today!

When Prince Dun finished speaking, the Emperor's face had obviously darkened. Perhaps he did not lose his temper because he was concerned about their brotherhood.

"Your Majesty, today is a family dinner, and it's rare that all the sisters are happy. In this case, how about I write the word 'diligent' for Your Majesty?"

The whole hall fell silent, and the Queen stood up and bowed first.

Before the emperor even agreed, the queen had already prepared the writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone. Nian Shilan really didn't believe it if someone said she didn't arrange it on purpose.

Clearly, in the previous life, I arranged for Cao Qinmo to do this, but now Cao Qinmo has ended up like this, and she deserves it.

With the Queen setting this precedent, I’m afraid the concubines who follow will not be able to shirk their responsibilities!

Soon, the queen finished writing. When the queen picked it up to show it, the emperor couldn't help but praise it: "The queen's handwriting has improved."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After waiting for the queen to be almost done, he returned to his seat.

Nian Shilan understood clearly that the queen had already had her fill of limelight, and no one knew who would be the next.

Since the Queen is like this, she has been trying to please the Emperor and touch his heart. Now I’m afraid she can’t stop even if she wants to, because the Emperor is in high spirits!

"I wonder which sister should start next?"

Before the emperor could speak, the queen started asking again. She glanced around, but her eyes did not fall on Nian Shilan. It seemed that she knew Nian Shilan would not cooperate.

Given Nian Shilan's personality, even if Nian Shilan didn't want to show anything, the emperor wouldn't say much, and the queen naturally wouldn't embarrass herself.

"I am willing to give it a try."

Looking over at the direction of the voice, it was Zhen Huan who stood up and spoke.

Isn't this exactly what the Queen wants?

"Yeah."

Turning to look at the queen, she was already smiling from ear to ear.

"I wonder what the noble lady Wan wants to show?"

The queen asked quickly, but she couldn't delay her important matters.

In fact, there is no need to ask Nian Shilan to know that Zhen Huan will not be able to escape the stunning dance today!

Wasn't this something the Queen had deliberately arranged? !

"I do have a suggestion, Your Majesty, I wonder if you would listen to it."
