The Empress of Zhen Huan Reborn

In fact, when the emperor first saw Zhen Huan dancing the stunning dance, he was very much like Chun Yuan in her every frown and smile, and thought that she was carefully trained by the queen.

The emperor also deliberately asked Su Peisheng to find out. Unexpectedly, Zhen Huan had been recuperating in Suiyu Pavilion since she was frightened when she paid respects on the second day after entering the palace. During this period, the queen's personal maid Jianqiu came once, Shilan came twice, and only Shen Guiren and An Changzai came more frequently.

The emperor did not have any suspicions and did not suspect Shi Lan during the New Year. After all, Chun Yuan had passed away a long time ago, Shi Lan had not yet entered the palace, and he had only heard of her but had never seen her. How could she possibly give Zhen Huan any advice?

Thinking of Shilan, the emperor said casually while playing chess: "I heard that when I came to pay my respects today, did Concubine Hua feel wronged by you?"

When Zhen Huan heard this, she understood that the Emperor was probably going to cause trouble and wanted to use her name, so Zhen Huan disagreed.

"Your Majesty has been listening to the nonsense of those gossipers. Concubine Hua and the Empress are working together to manage the harem and have given me some advice, asking me not to break the rules. How come Concubine Hua's good intentions were turned into a grievance by others? This really scares me." Zhen Huan said with a smile.

As soon as the emperor heard what Zhen Huan said, he understood that his plan to support Zhen Huan and compete with Concubine Hua would not work for the time being.

Although the emperor now intends to let the empress and Hua Fei compete with each other in the harem, and not let one of them dominate. However, the empress has become more and more restless recently, winning over some concubines in the harem and trying to reach out to the previous dynasty. Her ambition is too great, which makes the emperor a little impatient with her.

Well, after all, Zhen Huan has not yet been favored by the emperor. I just developed some interest in her because I saw that she was somewhat similar to Chun Yuan. It is better not to give her any promises or power. I should observe her first, so as to avoid her desire growing and becoming annoying.

Seeing that the Emperor did not speak again, Zhen Huan also restrained her expression and continued to play chess with the Emperor attentively.

Time passed quickly and it was time for dinner. The Emperor did not expect that Zhen Huan's chess skills were so excellent. He was very pleased and decided to stay and have dinner with Zhen Huan.

At the dinner table, when Zhen Huan tasted a delicious dish, she would pass it to the emperor. After Eunuch Su tested the poison for the emperor, she asked the emperor to have a taste.

The rule of not talking while eating or sleeping was completely broken in Suiyuxuan. The emperor was also smiling throughout the meal.

The Emperor took Zhen Huan aside and talked for a while, and then it was time to turn over the cards in the evening.

Su Peisheng walked in and asked respectfully: "Your Majesty, tonight..."

The emperor waved his hand and said, "I will be here tonight."

After Su Peisheng heard this, his whole body trembled.

When a concubine went to sleep with the emperor for the first time, the eunuch from the Jingshifang would come to report after the emperor had flipped the name card. After she washed up, she would sit in the Fengluan Chun'en carriage and be carried to the Yangxin Palace or the West Warm Pavilion.

This was the first time that the emperor slept with Zhen Huan, and he let the emperor stay overnight in her palace. This had never happened before since Yinzhen became emperor.

Zhen Huan naturally knew that this was against the rules, so she advised, "Your Majesty, this is against etiquette..."

The emperor said indifferently: "It doesn't matter. In this palace, I am the rule."

After hearing this, Zhen Huan said nothing more. Su Peisheng saw that the emperor had made up his mind, so he did not try to persuade him and simply left.

The news that the Emperor stayed at the Suiyu Pavilion for the first time when Zhen Huan slept with him spread like wildfire. Many people in the harem couldn't sleep that night, and who knows how many more teacups would be broken...

Neither Zhen Huan nor Nian Shilan would care.

At night, after the emperor was helped to wash and dress by eunuchs such as Su Peisheng, he went into the bedroom of Sui Yuxuan. Zhen Huan was also helped by Huanbi to wash and dress.

"Huanbi, go get me some jasmine oil," Zhen Huan ordered.

Huanbi looked puzzled, "My lady, why don't you use rose essential oil? It smells so nice, wouldn't the emperor like it more?"

Zhen Huan smiled and said, "There are three thousand beauties in the harem, and the emperor has tasted them all. Only the quiet and elegant ones are unique."

When Huanbi heard this, she suddenly realized what was going on and hurried downstairs to get the jasmine oil.

After Zhen Huan washed up, she exuded a faint jasmine fragrance all over her body. The rich fragrance of jasmine is incomparable to other petals. It is not as strong as the rose fragrance. Its fragrance gives people a fresh and elegant feeling, which makes people smell very comfortable.

This was the feeling Zhen Huan wanted. She put on a thin layer of powder on her face, which looked very natural, yet charming. It contrasted with her light pink nightgown embroidered with red plums, but not out of place.

Zhen Huan looked at herself in the mirror carefully. She felt pure and lovely without appearing to be pretentious, which was good. So she stood up and returned to her bedroom.

The emperor was stunned the moment he saw Zhen Huan. They looked so alike!

When I first met Wanwan, she was so beautiful and innocent that I fell in love with her at first sight and could never forget her.

"Wanwan..." the emperor murmured.

Zhen Huan also knew that the Emperor missed Queen Chun Yuan through her, but at this moment her heart felt no sadness, just calmness.

Zhen Huan walked slowly to the emperor, sat down and looked at him.

Upon seeing this, the Emperor took Zhen Huan into his arms and could not help murmuring, "Wan Wan, I miss you so much."

Zhen Huan knew that it was not appropriate to speak at this time, so she pretended not to hear and continued to cling to the emperor like a boneless creature, quietly giving the emperor time to miss Queen Chun Yuan.
