Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

"Concubine, it's enough, let's go back." Su Peisheng said.

The group turned back from the garden.

Several servants were waiting at the door. "May the concubine be well. Please go inside and take a look."

Back in the house, Nian Shilan smelled a scent that seemed familiar. "This is... the favorite of the Pepper Room." Nian Shilan was a little unsure.

Su Peisheng smiled and replied, "Yes, Concubine, this is the highest honor, the highest honor."

Nian Shilan looked at the pepper wall and didn't expect that the grace of her previous life was still there today. Thinking of this, Nian Shilan felt a little sad. The full of memories made her eyes moist.

Yinzhen walked in from outside and said, "Shilan, do you still like it?"

"I like it. Thank you, Your Highness." Yinzhen stretched out his hand and helped Nian Shilan up. She snuggled up to Yinzhen. Nian Shilan was happy at this moment.

Jianqiu walked to Yixiu cautiously with a stern face: "Madam." She looked up at the servants around her. Yixiu immediately understood what she meant and sent everyone away.

After seeing the others walk away, Jianqiu approached Yixiu and said, "Fujin, I heard that the prince gave Fujin Nian the favor of the imperial concubine."

Hearing this, Yixiu, who was leaning on the couch, suddenly sat up, eyes slightly opened, "Who told you that?" Jianqiu was so scared that she didn't dare to speak, for fear that Yixiu would get angry.

"Go ahead and tell me, I don't blame you." Yixiu said again.

"Your servant, I just saw Zhou Ninghai in Concubine Nian's room. He looked arrogant and was holding something to paint the pepper walls, walking towards Concubine Nian's room." After Jianqiu finished speaking, she did not dare to look up at Yixiu's expression. She only heard Yixiu slam the table heavily.

Anger flared up in her heart, "The prince actually gave Nian the favor of the imperial concubine. This is the first time in the palace. I didn't expect that after Rouze left, Nian Shilan would come. Humph, we'll see. There's still a long way to go."

The next morning, everyone came to Yixiu to pay their respects.

Looking around, everyone was there, except Nian Shilan.

"Why didn't Mrs. Nian come today?" Yixiu asked everyone.

"Maybe she overslept again." Li Wanting looked disdainful. She didn't like Nian, so she took this opportunity to suppress her.

After hearing this, Yixiu clenched the corner of the table tightly and frowned, looking angry and helpless.

At this time, Nian Shilan walked in slowly, and everyone in the room looked at her. "Greetings to the wife." Nian Shilan half-knelt and saluted.

"Get up. I wonder why Madam Nian came so late today." Yixiu said.

Shilan smiled faintly and yawned, "It's nothing. I wanted to come earlier. But the prince told me not to go so early and to accompany him more. I have no choice. Please forgive me, Fu Jin."

"Never mind, it's nothing. The prince asked you to accompany him, so you have to. The most important thing is that the prince is happy." Yi Xiu said. Knowing that Nian Shilan was showing off, Yi Xiu was angry, but she couldn't say anything.

Everyone saw Nian Shilan being the only one to receive the emperor's favor, feeling proud and jealous. Only Nian Shilan knew in her heart that she didn't want to sleep with the emperor, but she had to.

"Fujin, the prince said that he would take me for a horse ride in a few days." Everyone was chatting, and Nian Shilan suddenly said this.

After these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.

"Okay, let's go. It's been a long time since the prince has taken us sisters on a horseback ride. We sisters will go back and pack up and get ready to follow the prince." Yixiu smiled, feeling happy in her heart. She could finally go on a horseback ride with the man she loved.

Nian Shilan leaned back in her chair, took a sip of tea, and looked at Yixiu, "Fujin, I think you heard wrongly, Your Majesty, only take me with you."

Hearing this, Yixiu's smile instantly disappeared, "No problem, go ahead." Although Yixiu looked calm and amiable, the truth was far from it. On the surface, she looked like a pool of calm water, but inside, there were turbulent waves.

Li Wanting was so angry that she rolled her eyes and couldn't say a word.

Yixiu said he was tired, and asked everyone to go back to their rooms.

"Concubine, why did you tell her that the prince only took you to ride the horse? It will only make others jealous." Songzhi asked from the side.

"Hmph." Shilan snorted coldly, and added: "She is the concubine and I am the concubine. If the prince takes her with me or not, I have to let her know. It's not certain who will be in charge of this palace in the future." Shilan said with ruthlessness.

She heaved a sigh of relief and felt much better. She didn't really want to go riding, but she had to deal with it. Those who wanted to go couldn't go, and those who didn't want to go couldn't escape. Haha, God really knows how to play tricks on people.

The next day, early in the morning, Su Peisheng was waiting outside the palace with his horse. Songzhi supported Nian Shilan and slowly walked out of the house.

"Your servant pays respects to Concubine Jin."

"Get up, where's the prince?" Su Peisheng was the only one there, but Yinzhen was nowhere to be seen. As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of horse hooves in the distance attracted their attention. When they looked closely, they saw that it was Yinzhen.

Everyone came out of the house, probably because they heard the sound of horse hooves. Yinzhen rode his horse towards Shilan. He was heroic and full of vigor. He smiled at Shilan, so charming and intoxicating. Everyone stood at the door, stunned.

"I've heard that the prince looks very handsome when riding a horse. Today is a rare opportunity to see him." Someone muttered in a low voice.

Not to mention them, even Yixiu had only seen him once, and that was with Rouze. After Rouze's death, Yinzhen never took anyone to ride a horse again.

Yinzhen stopped at the gate of the palace and quickly dismounted from his horse.

"I pay my respects to His Majesty." Everyone bowed and said in unison.

"Get up."

Yixiu walked up to him and asked, "Where did you go so early in the morning, Your Majesty?" Yinzhen glanced at Yixiu and said with a smile, "I took Shilan to ride a horse today. I was afraid that she would not be used to riding, so I trained her in advance." Then he walked towards Shilan. Seeing this, Yixiu smiled awkwardly and said nothing.

"Shilan, get on the horse." Yinzhen's gentle voice sounded in Shilan's ears.

Seeing this scene, Nian Shilan was lost in thought. Always, always, always. Yinzhen treated her so well, and it was different from how he treated others. Seeing Yinzhen training horses for her, she felt a little distressed. Her eyes turned red.

"Shilan?" Seeing that she didn't respond, Yinzhen patted her hands and stared at her. Seeing this, Songzhi also touched her lightly, and then she responded.

"Ah, thank you, Your Highness." The two smiled and got on their horses.

Everyone at the gate of the palace watched the two walk away, and then they all went back to their rooms. As soon as they entered the room, Jianqiu looked unhappy and muttered, "I don't know what's so good about Concubine Nian, the prince dotes on her like this. The same goes for Concubine Nian. She should at least mention you to the prince, after all, you are the legitimate wife."

After hearing this, Yixiu sighed and said, "If the prince doesn't want to bring anyone else, it's useless even if she says so. Forget it, Nian is not an easy person to deal with. Just be more careful about her in the future."

"Yes." Jianqiu didn't say much.

"Now that the prince has gone to ride his horse, I don't know how many days it will take for him to come back. The prince favors Nian so much that everyone is bound to feel unfair. When the prince comes back, I should report to him properly." Yixiu murmured with a worried look on her face.

"Who said it wasn't, Madam? The prince favors her alone. You didn't see the face of Concubine Li at the gate of the mansion just now. She wanted to eat Concubine Nian." Thinking of this, Jianqiu burst out laughing.

Yixiu glanced at Jianqiu and snorted coldly, "She, hmph, with her brain, she was never favored in the first place. Now that she has Nian, she will have no chance of getting favor in the future."

Jianqiu was trimming flowers and plants nearby, smiling slightly but saying nothing.
