Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 379: A Small Episode on the Day of Consecration

After Jiang Zhongmin left, Concubine Jing and Concubine Duan went to Yiku Palace, intending to tell Nian Shilan the news and tell her not to worry.

"What are you doing, sister?"

Concubine Duan walked into the Yikun Palace and said with a smile, "My wife and Concubine Jing are fine, so I just wanted to come and see you."

When Nian Shilan saw the two of them coming, she felt warm in her heart. She had not expected them to come.

Now Jingpin is going to be promoted to a royal consort. To be honest, Nian Shilan is also very happy about this.

"Sister is here."

Nian Shilan said as she quickly invited the two of them in and sat down: "I heard that my sister is going to be crowned as a concubine, and I really want to congratulate her."

As she spoke, Nian Shilan took off the jade bracelet from her hand and placed it in Jingpin's hand.

However, it would have been fine if it was before, but now Nian Shilan is in such a situation, how can Jingpin still be wanted?

She quickly stuffed it back and said, "Hey, sister, what are you doing? Concubine Duan and I came here today, not to ask for your gift."

If she really accepted it, wouldn't it mean that Jingpin had lost all her humanity? So Jingpin was afraid that Nian Shilan would think too much.

"I know that's not what you meant, so this is really a token of your love, so please accept it."

Nian Shilan could naturally understand Jingpin. She didn't think so in her heart originally, she just congratulated Jingpin sincerely.

Concubine Jing didn't know what to do for a moment. She turned her head to look at Concubine Duan. Seeing Concubine Duan nodded, she accepted it and no longer refused.

But these two people really felt distressed when they saw Nian Shilan like this.

"What are your plans?"

Concubine Duan looked around the room and asked Nian Shilan again.

The current Yikun Palace looks much more deserted than before, and Concubine Duan really can't bear to see Nian Shilan continue like this.

Although he is now in charge of the six palaces, he can also help Nian Shilan occasionally.

But Nian Shilan's demotion was ultimately the emperor's order. Even if he wanted to help, it wouldn't be as much as what Nian Shilan could have gained through his own efforts.

"Don't worry, sister. I'm fine. It's fine just the way it is now." Nian Shilan patted Concubine Duan and said with a smile.

She knew that she had nothing now, but she must not tell Concubine Duan until she had some plans and results.

The fewer people who know about your plans, the better.

After all, the hearts of people in the harem are hard to predict. Concubine Duan naturally believed it, but she was afraid that if the truth came out in the future, it would implicate her.

Seeing that Nian Shilan didn't say anything, Concubine Duan didn't ask any more questions.

Knowing that her daily expenses were high, she would definitely not be able to afford to reduce them all at once, so Concubine Duan left some banknotes for Nian Shilan before leaving.

"Hurry up, your Majesty. The Emperor is waiting in the Yangxin Palace now."

Soon, the day for Jingpin to be crowned as a concubine arrived, and Ruyi was urging her to do so early in the morning.

Be sure not to miss the auspicious time.

"Got it. Okay, let's go."

On such an important day as the conferment of the title of imperial concubine, Jingpin must dress up nicely.

"Empress Jingpin is here!" Su Peisheng shouted outside.

After all, she hasn't met the emperor and the empress dowager yet, so the ceremony is naturally not considered complete, so Su Peisheng still calls her Jingpin.

But I'm going to change my mind soon.

"Your Majesty, I, Feng from Xianfu Palace, wish you the best of health."

As soon as I entered the Yangxin Palace, I could see that the emperor looked exhausted, so he still forced himself to make Jingpin a concubine.

"Declare the decree."

"Princess Jing, please listen to my order. Concubine Jing Feng has been with me in the palace for many years. She is well behaved, beautiful and from a noble family. She is humble and kind. I present the Empress Dowager's order to appoint her as Concubine Jing and grant her the power to assist in the management of the six palaces. I decree this."

"Your Majesty, please accept the decree." Su Peisheng put the imperial edict in Concubine Jing's hands and said with a smile.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, and Your Majesty. I will definitely not let you down."

"Okay, you should go to the Queen Mother as well."

The emperor has been busy all night. Anyway, the process here has been completed, and the emperor is thinking about getting a good sleep.

Concubine Jing was naturally sensible and considerate, so she hurried to the Queen Mother. After all, only after paying homage to the Queen Mother could she be the real Concubine Jing.

Knowing that Concubine Jing would be crowned as a concubine today, the Empress Dowager got up early and waited, thinking that it was a big day after all.

"I know that Concubine Jing is caring for the child and is sensible and considerate. She has been in the palace for so many years and has always been by the emperor's side. Although he originally chose her because she was the daughter of a military general and brought her in to check and balance Concubine Hua, in the final analysis, our royal family owes her."

The Queen Mother couldn't help but recall what happened back then: "This Concubine Jing has never had any children. It all comes down to the fact that she was a princess in Concubine Hua's room."

Thinking that the matter of the Nian family was now settled, but that Concubine Jing was too old to bear children, the empress dowager couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

"Empress Dowager, I understand you. You had no choice at the time. The nine princes were fighting for the throne, and it was a tragic time. If it weren't for your careful consideration, I'm afraid..."

Zhuxi stopped talking after that, but the Queen Mother understood what she meant.

"I send my regards to the Queen Mother."

While they were talking, Concubine Jing had already arrived.

The empress dowager was shocked and she didn't know whether Concubine Jing heard what she had just said.

However, the Empress Dowager's worries were completely unnecessary. Concubine Jing not only heard it, but also heard every word.

It was also on the day of the conferment of the title that I saw the true faces of the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, mother and son.

But Concubine Jing knew in her heart that she had finally waited until the day of being crowned as a concubine. If it were to be exposed now, wouldn't all her efforts be wasted?

Therefore, I can only pretend that I know nothing and take the long-term view.

"Get up, have you seen the emperor?"

The Queen Mother didn't know what to say, so she quickly changed the subject.

"Yes, Queen Mother, I have already met the Emperor."

Concubine Jing answered according to the Queen Mother's words.

But the Queen Mother's expression was obviously not good: "Okay, now that you have met me, the etiquette is done, you can go back."

Although Concubine Jing did not offend her, the Empress Dowager's face was still not very good.

Concubine Jing smiled and said IU left, but as soon as she left Shoukang Palace, her expression changed. Now she was a very proper Concubine Jing, and she was very different from the former Concubine Jing. Now everyone who saw her had to address her as "Madam."
