The Empress of Zhen Huan Reborn

At that time, Queen Mother Wu Ya Cheng Bi wanted to marry her father and stay with him for the rest of her life. However, after learning that her aunt was going to enter the palace, her grandfather found her father and wanted Queen Mother Wu Ya Cheng Bi to enter the palace to take care of her aunt.

My father was somewhat reluctant at the time, but after hearing that if my aunt gained power, it would bring endless wealth and glory to the family, my father just thought for a while and began to make arrangements.

In this way, by accident, Empress Dowager Wu Ya Chengbi also entered the palace, but at first because she did not have a good family background, she was just a female official.

Since the Queen Mother Wu Ya Cheng Bi entered the palace, she had a lot of resentment towards her father. Her father often entered the palace to comfort Wu Ya Cheng Bi without anyone knowing. The death of the previous emperor was caused by the Queen Mother Wu Ya Cheng Bi and her father. Therefore, her father was often threatened by Wu Ya Cheng Bi with this matter. Even her entry into the palace was arranged by the Queen Mother in order to better control her father.

This is why his father told him all this. He was worried that he would be threatened by the Queen Mother after entering the palace, but he did not dare to challenge the Queen Mother openly, fearing that the Queen Mother would tell the Emperor about the late Emperor and that it was his father who did it alone. After all, no matter what, the Queen Mother Wu Ya Chengbi was also the Emperor's biological mother.

(The Queen Mother kept the fact that the Emperor's biological mother was Imperial Consort Tong Jia a secret well, and never told Longkodo a single word, because she knew that if Longkodo knew that he was involved with the Emperor early on, Longkodo would never let herself manipulate him again. When the plan was about to start, it was already imminent, so the Queen Mother revealed it, making Longkodo hate her, but he had to do it. The Queen Mother's feelings for Longkodo were very complicated, with both love and hate. Seeing Longkodo sad, the Queen Mother still felt a little happy in her heart.)

Concubine Jin recalled that when she was a child, she and her father had met the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother was beautiful and dignified at that time, which left a deep impression on her.

Now, she has to bear the blame for her father's crime and linger in this deep palace.

Jin Guiren felt that there was only fog in front of her eyes and she didn't know what to do next.

At this time, the palace received news that the former minister Longkodo was planning a rebellion and wanted to seize power and usurp the throne. He brought assassins into the palace to assassinate the empress dowager, the emperor and the imperial concubine. The emperor was fine, but the empress dowager and the imperial concubine were stabbed by the guards and stayed in their respective palaces to recover from their injuries.

There was an uproar in the harem. Everyone was disgusted by the audacity of the guilty minister Longkodo. They also thought of Concubine Jin in Chunxi Palace and were afraid that she would also fall out of favor. All kinds of things were said at once.

When Zhen Huan heard the news in Suiyuxuan, she didn't care about anything else for a moment and took the Seventh Prince to Yikun Palace to visit Nian Shilan.

Zhen Huan and the Seventh Prince Hongshun arrived at the gate of Yikun Palace and knocked. The one who opened the door was Xiao Xiazi, who was in the imperial court. When Xiao Xiazi saw Zhen Huan, she bowed respectfully and said, "Your servant Xiao Xiazi pays respect to the Empress Xi."

Zhen Huan was also stunned when she saw that the person coming was Xiao Xia Zi, and then she asked tentatively: "Seventh Prince cried and made a fuss and wanted to play with Fifth Prince. I couldn't persuade him, so I brought Seventh Prince here. Is the Emperor inside?"

Xiao Xiazi naturally understood what Zhen Huan meant and said with a smile, "To reply to Concubine Xi, the Emperor is not here. I will go and inform the Imperial Noble Concubine right now."

Zhen Huan was even more confused when she saw this, but she didn't show it at all. She just nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll have to trouble Eunuch Xia."

After Xiao Xiazi entered the main hall, she bowed and said, "Royal Noble Consort, Consort Xi has brought the Seventh Prince to ask for an audience."

Seeing this, Nian Shilan seemed puzzled and asked, "Oh? Why is she here?"

Xiao Xiazi smiled and said, "To answer your Majesty's question, Concubine Xi said that the Seventh Prince wanted to come and play with the Fifth Prince, and he couldn't persuade the Seventh Prince, so he had no choice but to come and bother your Majesty."

Nian Shilan couldn't help laughing in her heart when she heard Xiao Xiazi's answer. Zhen Huan was so clever, but she looked calm on the surface and said, "In that case, you can summon Concubine Xi and the Seventh Prince in."

After Nian Shilan finished speaking, she looked at Lingzhi and said, "Go and bring the Fifth Prince here."

Lingzhi and Xiaoxiazi followed the order and left the main hall together. Songzhi said at the side: "Madam, since the Seventh Prince is here, shall I go to the small kitchen to prepare some food for him?"

If it were normal, Songzhi would not ask this question, she would definitely go to the small kitchen to prepare it. However, now that Xiao Xiazi in front of the emperor was here, Songzhi did not dare to make a decision on her own, fearing that the emperor would notice the closeness between Nian Shilan and Zhen Huan, which would arouse the emperor's suspicion and cause trouble for her queen. So Songzhi chose to ask and let her queen decide.

When Nian Shilan heard Songzhi's question, she waved her hand and said, "No need. I will ask Xiao Xiazi to take the two princes to visit the Imperial Garden later."

When Songzhi heard that Nian Shilan wanted to send Xiao Xiazi away, she nodded and said, "Okay, I understand then."

Zhen Huan left the palace today, taking Liuzhu and Xiao Yunzi with her. After hearing Xiao Xia Zi's message that they could enter the palace, Zhen Huan took the Seventh Prince's hand and took Liuzhu and Xiao Yunzi into the main hall of Yikun Palace.

As soon as she entered the palace, Zhen Huan bowed deeply and said, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to Her Majesty the Imperial Concubine."

The Seventh Prince could speak now. He followed the etiquette master's instructions and knelt on the ground in a proper manner, "Your son pays respects to Empress Hua."

Xiao Yunzi and Liuzhu also knelt behind Zhen Huan and the Seventh Prince, "Your servants pay their respects to the Imperial Concubine."

Nian Shilan saw the people kneeling on the ground, with no expression of joy or anger on her face, "Stand up."

When Zhen Huan and the others heard what Nian Shilan said, they stood up. Zhen Huan took the hand of the Seventh Prince Hongshun and sat on a chair beside them.

Nian Shilan was the first to speak, her voice was lazy, but those who were familiar with her could hear a hint of intimacy, "How come Concubine Xi has time to bring the Seventh Prince to my place today?"

Zhen Huan heard what Nian Shilan said, smiling, and said helplessly: "I heard that the Imperial Concubine was injured, and I didn't want to bother her, but the Seventh Prince was worried about the Fifth Prince's safety, so he insisted that I bring him here to see how the Fifth Prince is doing and to play with him."

Seeing this, Nian Shilan looked at the chubby Seventh Prince sitting next to Zhen Huan, and her tone was very gentle, "Really? I didn't know that the Fifth Prince was so close to the Seventh Prince."

At this time, the Fifth Prince ran in from outside the hall. When he saw everyone, he bowed maturely and said, "I pay my respects to my mother, to my mother Xi, and to my seventh brother."

The Seventh Prince also returned the greeting in a very formal manner, "I pay my respects to the Fifth Brother."

Zhen Huan smiled and looked at the Seventh Prince and said, "Aren't you worried about your Fifth Brother? Why don't you go and take a good look at him?"
