The Empress of Zhen Huan Reborn

Chapter 89 The Queen and the Queen Mother

When night fell, Huanbi appeared in Lipin's main hall wearing a dark palace dress. The moment Huanbi saw Lipin, her eyes were filled with tears, and she looked at Lipin with tears in her eyes, "I thought I had offended Lipin and made her angry. If that's the case, I apologize to Lipin, and I hope you won't ignore me."

Otherwise, why do people say that Lipin is a brainless vase? After hearing what Huanbi said, Lipin threw away all the temptations and vigilance she had prepared before, and felt very proud. "Xi Fei, you would never have thought that you would have my chess piece by your side. I'm afraid your good days are over." Lipin was ecstatic in her heart, and looked at Huanbi with a very gentle expression.

"Why would I be angry with you? It's just that I've been very busy recently and I'm afraid that Concubine Xi will become suspicious of you. I'm protecting you."

After hearing what Lipin said, Huanbi was very happy and knelt down and kowtowed, "Thank you very much, Madam Lipin, for your careful planning for me. Your kindness will be remembered in my heart."

When Concubine Li heard Huanbi's words, she felt a little flattered. Thinking of the purpose of calling her here, she pretended to be distressed and said, "It's not that I really don't want to take care of you during this period. It's just that Concubine Xi is quite favored by the emperor now. When the emperor is favored, I really can't recommend you to the emperor for a while."

When Huanbi heard what Lipin said, her face turned pale, and her eyes were filled with hatred. "If Concubine Xi is too busy to take care of the emperor, then that would be good."

Lipin was very happy to hear Huanbi's words. She didn't expect this little maid to be so thoughtful. "Do you have any good ideas?"

Huanbi pondered for a long time before she spoke: "I have been serving Concubine Xi. I know that the Seventh Prince and the Third Princess are allergic to pollen. If they get sick, Concubine Xi will be too busy to take care of the Emperor. The Emperor might even blame Concubine Xi for not taking good care of the children."

When Concubine Li heard Huanbi say that her two children were allergic to pollen, her eyes suddenly brightened. Pollen allergy is a good thing, but if it is serious it can be fatal. If Zhen Huan had lost her children, she would probably not be as proud as she is now.

"Are you sure that the person who did this will not know about it?" Lipin looked at Huanbi, with a glimmer of excitement in her eyes.

Concubine Li really wanted Zhen Huan to fall out of favor. Since Zhen Huan and the others entered the palace, the emperor had not come to her palace for a long time. Concubine Li had forgotten when was the last time she had slept with the emperor.

Huanbi looked embarrassed and said with some difficulty: "On weekdays, the two heirs are carefully taken care of by the wet nurse. I have no chance to take them out, let alone get close to them."

After that, he lowered his head again with a frown on his face, pretending to be indifferent and muttering, "Since Concubine Xi gave birth to two royal heirs, she has not been out of the palace often. It would be great if there was a banquet or something like that at this time."

When Concubine Li heard the word "banquet", her eyes lit up instantly. Yes, the scenery has been pleasant recently, and the flowers in the imperial garden are blooming beautifully. Why not let the Empress hold a flower-viewing banquet? The palace has held several flower-viewing banquets every year in the past. Even if the Emperor knew about it, he would not be suspicious.

Lipin had an idea in mind. She looked at Huanbi and asked, "If I hold a flower-viewing banquet, can you bring the Seventh Prince and the Third Princess over?"

Seeing that Lipin had taken the bait, Huanbi suppressed her inner joy and said respectfully, "I have a way."

Seeing Huanbi's confident look, Lipin was relieved. "Well, you shouldn't stay here for too long. Wait for the news of my flower-viewing banquet."

Seeing this, Huanbi obediently left the main hall and sneaked back to Suiyuxuan again.

After Huanbi left, Lipin couldn't help but feel happy, "Xi Fei, Xi Fei, you can't blame me for this. I didn't want to be so cruel to you. It's your fault that you don't know how to use people. You can't even win over the personal maids around you. All this is retribution for your actions."

Lipin seemed to have seen Zhen Huan lose her child and was in great pain, and the emperor was very disappointed in her, abandoning her and favoring her again. Lipin was very happy that night, and when she fell asleep, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, as if a dream had come true.

After Huanbi returned to Suiyuxuan, she went into Zhen Huan's inner chamber and told her word for word what she had said to Lipin.

After hearing this, Zhen Huan smiled and tapped Huanbi's forehead, "You did a great job on this matter."

Seeing Zhen Huan satisfied, Huanbi was also very happy. "Huanbi knows that the road in the deep palace is not easy to walk. Huanbi just wants to accompany you all the way. No matter what happens in the future, Huanbi will be by your side."

Zhen Huan listened to Huanbi's words and reached out to smooth Huanbi's hair. "If there is a chance, I would like to find a good family for you and Liuzhu. This way, I will not let you down for your love for me."

Huanbi said firmly: "Eldest sister, Huanbi doesn't want to get married. Huanbi just wants to stay by your side forever."

Zhen Huan gently tapped Huan Bi's nose and said, "If I keep you by my side forever, and you become an old maid in the future, you will blame me."

Over at Shoukang Palace, the empress dowager listened to Zhu Xi's report of the trivial matters that happened today. When she heard that Concubine Xi appeared at the ceremony of conferring the title of concubine wearing Chun Yuan's old clothes, the empress dowager sighed helplessly.

"Hey! Yixiu is becoming more and more extreme now. She is openly protesting against me."

Zhu Xi looked at the Queen Mother in confusion: "Although I am stupid, I don't know why the Queen Mother was so moved?"

The Queen Mother looked at Zhu Xi, with a self-deprecating arc on her lips. "The Queen is not satisfied with the fact that I once carefully arranged for Chun Yuan to enter the palace and took away her position as the principal wife. She is even more dissatisfied that I have never made things difficult for Concubine Xi since she entered the palace, nor have I ever interfered in her affairs, which made the Emperor increasingly fond of her. This Yixiu let Concubine Xi wear Chun Yuan's old clothes today, probably to make the Emperor angry with Concubine Xi, and also to remind me not to forget the glory of the Ulanara and Uya clans."

After hearing the Queen Mother's analysis, Zhu Xi was somewhat dissatisfied with the Queen, but also felt very distressed for her. "You are not in good health either. You should just ignore the affairs in the harem. The Queen is becoming more and more cruel now."

The Queen Mother was somewhat puzzled as to why Zhuxi said that Yixiu was cruel and ruthless, so Zhuxi told the Queen Mother about Concubine Fang's miscarriage.

When the Queen Mother heard that it was a cat that knocked down Concubine Fang, her eyes turned colder, "How could there be a cat in the harem?"

Zhu Xi looked at the Queen Mother and sighed slightly, "It was a tribute from Persia. The Emperor gave it to Concubine Mi, and Concubine Mi gave it to the Queen."

When the Queen Mother heard Zhu Xi's words, she closed her eyes to hide the sadness in her eyes. When she opened her eyes again, there was still a trace of pain in her eyes, "The Queen is planning to make my family childless."
