The Empress of Zhen Huan Reborn

As soon as Zhen Huan walked out of the inner room, she saw the emperor sitting on the chair. She didn't even bother to greet him and threw herself into his arms, crying.

The emperor was shocked to see Zhen Huan like this, and quickly reached out to catch her, reprimanding her in a low voice: "Be careful, you are still pregnant, what happened, look at you crying like a cat."

Zhen Huan hugged the emperor tightly, her voice trembling slightly because of crying and fear: "Just now, I, Concubine Hua, and Lingrong went in to visit Sister Mei. Who knew someone was so vicious that he added a lot of musk and safflower to the spices that Sister Mei usually lit. If Lingrong hadn't been careful and knew a thing or two, I'm afraid Sister Mei would have been assassinated along with her heir."

Upon hearing this, the Emperor flew into a rage: "How dare you! There are still such cruel and ruthless people in the harem. It seems that I was too kind to them in the past, and they have harbored evil thoughts again."

Seeing that the emperor was angry, Zhen Huan quickly added fuel to the fire: "I am so scared. Sister Mei is lucky. If it were me, I really don't know if I would be able to see Silang again."

When the emperor heard Zhen Huan's words, he hugged her lovingly, patted her on the back, and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, Wanwan, I am here, and I will never let you get hurt."

When Zhen Huan heard the emperor's words, she knew that he was probably thinking of the late Queen Chunyuan, who died of complications during childbirth of the second prince, and this brought back the emperor's sad memories.

The Emperor saw Zhen Huan slowly calm down in his arms, and then he asked softly, "You just said that Concubine Hua and Concubine An were in the inner room, where are they now?"

Zhen Huan explained, with tears still on her face, looking very pitiful: "The Empress Hua is worried about Sister Mei, afraid that she will be murdered again, so she brought Lingrong to stay in the house with her."

After hearing this, the emperor nodded and said, "Concubine Hua is thoughtful, and Concubine An is not bad either."

Zhen Huan didn't say anything else. She glanced around and saw that most of the concubines in the harem were present. She felt it was not appropriate for her to stay in the emperor's arms any longer, so she quickly stood up and sat aside. The emperor couldn't help but smile when he saw that Zhen Huan looked a little shy.

Han Yun came with the Emperor. She looked at Zhen Huan with curiosity. Zhen Huan looked at her and saw that there was no malice in her eyes. She smiled at her. Han Yun also gave Zhen Huan a friendly smile. She couldn't help thinking that this Concubine Wan was really a wonderful person. With just a few words, she made the Emperor angry and wanted to investigate the person who drugged him. She also recommended her sister to the Emperor without making a sound. It was really interesting. She could go to her palace to sit down when she had nothing to do in the future.

Inside the house, Nian Shilan saw more and more sweat on Shen Meizhuang's forehead, and her red lips were bleeding because of the pain. Nian Shilan rolled her eyes at Shen Meizhuang and said angrily, "Why are you enduring it? If it hurts, just scream. If you don't let the emperor know that you have suffered a great crime, how can he feel sorry for you?"

An Lingrong was a little surprised when she heard what Nian Shilan said, "It turns out that Lady Hua Guifei is really a nice person to get along with. She really cares about me, Sister Hui, and Sister Wan wholeheartedly."

Shen Meizhuang has always been dignified and serious. She felt a little uncomfortable when she heard Nian Shilan's words. She had been carefully cultivated by her family since she was a child, and she would not do something like shouting and screaming.

Nian Shilan certainly understood Shen Meizhuang's concerns, so she walked straight forward and pinched Shen Meizhuang hard. Shen Meizhuang couldn't help but screamed when she was in labor pain. Nian Shilan heard her scream and nodded in appreciation, "Yes, that's it, make your voice louder."

After the first scream, Shen Meizhuang no longer cared about anything else and began to scream in pain.

An Lingrong looked at Nian Shilan, who had an expression that said "You've finally made some progress, and it's worth my efforts", and chuckled softly. Nian Shilan glanced at An Lingrong, and An Lingrong quickly became serious.

Zhen Huan heard Shen Meizhuang screaming outside the palace and couldn't help but feel a little scared. She grabbed the emperor's sleeve and said, "Your Majesty, Sister Mei will be safe, right?"

The emperor looked at Zhen Huan's worried expression and said to her in a hurry, "Yes, everything will be fine."

After saying that, he looked at Su Peisheng again, "Su Peisheng, go to the door and tell Huipin that as long as she can give birth to a child safely, whether it's a prince or a princess, I will make Huipin the Huifei."

After hearing this, Su Peisheng hurried to the door of the inner room to convey the emperor's oral instructions.

After hearing this, Nian Shilan looked at Shen Meizhuang and said, "Did you hear that? As long as you work hard to give birth to a child, you will be Concubine Hui. Shen Meizhuang, I tell you, you must not have any accidents. Your life is safe."

When Shen Meizhuang heard what Nian Shilan said and saw her face full of worry for her, she felt a little warm in her heart. She had never thought that she would make so many true friends after entering the palace.

"Your Majesty, please help a little, the prince's head will be out soon." The midwives said anxiously. Huipin's delivery had been delayed for too long, and the midwives were also worried that something might happen to the royal heir in her belly. Even if they had ten heads, they would not be enough to compensate. Look at how many people valued Huifei's pregnancy. The royal heir hasn't been born yet, but the emperor has promoted her to Huifei. The rumored domineering Concubine Hua is personally in charge to ensure the safety of Huifei and her child.

When Shen Meizhuang heard what the midwives said, she suddenly felt a surge of strength. As she exerted force, the sound of a baby crying was heard in the hall.

"It's born, it's born, it's a prince." The cheers coming from the hall comforted Shen Meizhuang a little. Finally, she didn't have to feel so much pain anymore.

When Nian Shilan heard that it was a prince, she was also very happy and said to Shen Meizhuang with a smile: "Your good days are still to come."

Shen Meizhuang looked at Nian Shilan with a face full of gratitude, "My life and the prince's life were saved by Concubine Hua and Sister Lingrong. I am very grateful and don't know how to repay you."

Nian Shilan interrupted with a smile, "I don't need you to repay me. You are now a concubine. Don't call yourself a concubine anymore. You should call yourself a minister."

Shen Meizhuang smiled and nodded.

An Lingrong also said, "I congratulate Sister Mei for getting what she wanted. I have only done my best and I don't deserve your thanks."

Shen Meizhuang patted An Lingrong's hand with emotion.

Nian Shilan reminded him, "Okay, I'm going to tell the emperor the good news. Concubine Hui, do you mind if I hug the Sixth Prince?"

Shen Meizhuang looked at Nian Shilan and said, "The Queen is willing to hold the Sixth Prince in her arms. That is a blessing for the Sixth Prince."

After saying that, he looked at Caiyue and said, "Caiyue, quickly take the Sixth Prince to Concubine Hua."

Nian Shilan took the Sixth Prince from Caiyue with a smile, "Then I will go and tell the emperor the good news."

Shen Meizhuang smiled and nodded, watching Nian Shilan and the Sixth Prince leave the inner room.

An Lingrong also said, "Then take good care of your sister. I won't stay and bother you for now."

Shen Meizhuang said in a hoarse voice: "Okay, I'm sleepy too, let me sleep for a while."

An Lingrong tucked in Shen Meizhuang's bedding and quietly went out of the hall.
