Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Zhen Huan
Chapter 239 The Emperor's Plan
After receiving the summons, Prince Guo did not even bother to change into court clothes and prepared to immediately follow the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict into the palace.
"Your Majesty."
Just then, Meng Jingxian's voice sounded behind him.
Prince Guo saw that Meng Jingxian had something to say to him, so he let his eunuch go ahead and said he would be there soon.
The father-in-law bowed to him and left.
After the eunuch left, Prince Guo walked forward, took Meng Jingxian's hand and said:
"Xian'er, you haven't fully recovered yet, why did you come out without a cloak? If you catch a cold again, it will be bad."
Ever since the last time Meng Jingxian blocked the sword for him, she has had a place in his heart.
Although he had suspected that Meng Jingxian was the one who did the assassination.
But Meng Jingxian's gentleness, thoughtfulness, and her fragility made him want to protect her.
Meng Jingxian coughed twice, looked at Prince Guo and said softly:
"Your Majesty, so many things have happened during this period of time. I am really scared."
"Although the emperor has no other intentions towards the prince now, there is no guarantee that in the future..."
"So, Your Majesty, you must show the proper etiquette between a subject and a monarch in front of the Emperor."
"Xian'er, you are right."
Prince Guo gently patted Meng Jingxian's hand:
"I will change into my court dress now."
Meng Jingxian smiled and said:
"Your Highness, I have prepared everything for you. Please follow me to the room and I will change your clothes for you."
Prince Guo nodded.
After helping Prince Guo get dressed, Meng Jingxian reminded him softly:
"Your Majesty, the Emperor summoned you to the palace this time because there must be something very difficult that needs to be entrusted to you to handle."
"Please be careful, Your Majesty, and don't make me worry."
"Okay, Xian'er, I promise you."
After saying this, Prince Guo took Meng Jingxian's hand, put it on his lips and kissed it, then hurried away.
The Hall of Nourishing Heart.
"Royal brother." Prince Guo bowed and said to the emperor politely.
"Old Seventeen, you're here."
Prince Guo nodded:
"I wonder what your Royal Brother wants me to do?"
The Emperor asked Prince Guo to spend more time around Prince Dun's mansion in the next few days.
The purpose is to be able to observe the movements of Prince Dun's Palace from a closer distance.
"It's my royal brother."
After arranging all this, the only thing that made the emperor worried was Zhen Huan's safety.
The emperor already had a plan in mind regarding this matter.
This is also the reason why he did not get rid of Tong Jia Yuting immediately.
In order to ensure that the next things could proceed smoothly, the emperor went to Yaohua Palace for several days in a row.
He also specially restored Tong Jia Yuting's status as a noble lady, and even restored the title that had been revoked.
The emperor's behavior left everyone in the harem a little confused.
Even Tong Jia Yuting herself felt that her chance had come!
During this period, the emperor also hinted to Zhen Huan what would happen next.
Zhen Huan understood what was going on, and she thought, it seems like the emperor is going to send her to Penglai Island again this time.
The people that Concubine Hua sent to guard outside the palace did not notice any movement from the Empress Dowager in the past few days.
The Queen Mother is very shrewd and cunning. It seems that she wants to wait until the Emperor lets down his guard before taking any action.
The next day, the emperor secretly summoned Zhen Yuandao and E Min to the palace to discuss matters, and told them his idea to get rid of Prince Dun.
Zhen Yuandao and E Min naturally gave their full support.
Afterwards, the emperor mentioned that there had been constant jealousy and turmoil in the harem in recent days.
He had to take care of the harem first and then free up his hands to take care of the affairs of the previous dynasty.
The next day, family dinner.
Zhen Huan took the lead in raising her glass and toasted the Emperor and the Empress with tea instead of wine.
Upon seeing this, Tong Jia Yuting hurriedly stood up and brought the grapes on her table to the emperor.
As strong alcohol is harmful to the body, she carefully selected a plate of good fruits and asked the emperor to taste them.
After the emperor ate it, he said calmly:
"It's okay."
This scene reminded Zhen Huan of the scene in her previous life.
The only difference was that the person serving the fruit changed from Songzhi to Tong Jia Yuting.
But no matter who it is, Zhen Huan has to accompany the emperor in this play.
Thinking of this, Zhen Huan looked at Tong Jia Yuting with a mocking tone and said:
"Did Lady Shu carefully select the fruit for His Majesty? The Emperor didn't praise it highly. It seems that my sister needs to understand the Emperor's intentions!"
Tong Jia Yuting felt unhappy when she heard Zhen Huan say this.
He was about to stand up and say a few words, but then he changed his mind and realized that he no longer had Longkodo as his backer, and could no longer act as willfully as before.
He took a step back, restrained himself a little, stood up with a smile, looked at Zhen Huan and said:
"Your Highness is teaching me that I have not served the Emperor as long as you have, so naturally I have many shortcomings."
"Although I am not as considerate as Your Majesty, I have never said that I am careless about everything concerning Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty will understand."
The emperor pretended to be unhappy, looked at Zhen Huan with dissatisfaction, and then looked at Tong Jia Yuting:
"I know that as long as I am here, no one will dare to say that to you."
Tong Jia Yuting was delighted when she heard this. She looked at the emperor and said in a deliberately coquettish tone:
"Your Majesty, Concubine Wan, are you deliberately making things difficult for me just because you've been to my palace a few more times?"
"If this is true, I will not dare to keep the emperor here anymore!"
The emperor's expression had changed at this time. He said sternly with a gloomy face:
"It is my freedom to go to whichever palace I want, and no one else can interfere."
The emperor's actions today surprised the concubines.
Even the Queen had an expression of disbelief; she had never seen the Emperor speak to Zhen Huan like this before.
When Concubine Hua saw that the emperor looked like he was angry with Zhen Huan, her grip on the chopsticks tightened.
She was just about to stand up and say a few words when Zhen Huan stopped her with a look.
At this moment, Xin Changzai's voice rang in my ears:
"The Emperor usually loves Concubine Wan the most and rarely speaks up for others. It's clear that the Emperor really loves Concubine Shu."
After hearing this, Tong Jia Yuting's smile became even more intense.
Zhen Huan didn't have a chance to look at Xin Changzai, but smiled and looked at Tong Jia Yuting and continued:
"Lady Shu is right. Everyone can figure out the emperor's intentions bit by bit. Is it all based on your passion for the emperor?"
"But you have to work harder, sister. The emperor will return in early August. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, it will be the once-in-three-years selection of concubines. By then, many new people will emerge, and sister will be busy."
As Zhen Huan spoke, she covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed.
At this time, the emperor's face was extremely gloomy.
Everyone was so frightened that they dared not breathe, only the queen kept smiling as she watched the scene unfold.
