Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Zhen Huan
Chapter 331 The Queen Gives Zhen Huan a Necklace
In a blink of an eye, we arrived at Jingren Palace.
"I send my regards to the Queen. May the Queen be blessed with peace and happiness."
"Hurry, hurry up! Please take a seat, Xiuxia, serve the tea."
The queen had a bright smile on her face and looked very enthusiastic.
Obviously she already knew why Zhen Huan came this time.
After standing up, Zhen Huan nodded to the Queen to show her gratitude.
Afterwards, she was supported by Huanbi and sat down humbly and politely.
"Xipin, you just gave birth to a child and your body has not yet fully recovered. Why don't you rest in the palace and come to pay your respects to me?"
The Queen kept looking at Zhen Huan with a smile.
Zhen Huan looked at the Queen, who had a smiling tiger look on her face, and knew that this conversation would inevitably involve some roundabout ways.
I’m really afraid that my face will become stiff when I smile!
But no matter what she thought in her heart, Zhen Huan still bowed instinctively:
"Your Majesty, I came here today specifically to express my gratitude to you."
"Oh?"
"Liu Zhu woke up this morning after taking the prescription you gave her. I am truly grateful to you, Your Majesty."
As she spoke, Zhen Huan stood up again, took a few steps forward, and saluted to the Queen.
"So that's why!"
The queen still smiled, showing her benevolence and righteousness:
"It's just a piece of cake for me to do all this, why do you take it to heart, Xipin?"
"Your Majesty is kind, but I cannot be ungrateful."
To show respect, Zhen Huan lowered her head even more when she spoke:
"When Liuzhu is better, I will bring her here again and kowtow to you to express my gratitude."
The Queen sat in the main hall, looking at Zhen Huan "crawling" at her feet, with a hint of pride in her eyes.
She was thinking: Xipin, even if you gave birth to three children for the emperor, you still have to bow down before me!
As long as I am here, I can't just watch you rise to the top!
Become a consort? Humph, I want to see if you have that blessing!
The Queen's thoughts like this have already hinted that Zhen Huan's path to becoming a royal concubine will not be smooth.
Because she was lowering her head, Zhen Huan could not see the expression on the Queen's face.
But she knew that when the queen was silent, she must not be thinking of anything good:
Abortion, instigation, frame-up...
In short, the queen is either harming people or on her way to harming people!
I really don’t know, if one day the queen has no one to fight with, will she fight with the emperor to relieve her loneliness?
Women in the harem are like this, funny and sad!
But it seems that no one can realize this until the last moment of life.
Just like that, the air in the palace was frozen for a while. After the Queen laughed awkwardly a few times, she asked Zhen Huan to stand up.
Afterwards, the Queen picked up the tea on the table and took a sip. While drinking, she observed Zhen Huan's actions through her arm, her eyes full of calculation.
From the corner of her eye, Zhen Huan caught a glimpse of the Queen looking at her, and she picked up the teacup and started drinking with a smile on her face.
After putting down the cup, the Queen's face turned into a smile. She looked at Zhen Huan and said:
"Come to think of it, this time I have to thank you, Xipin!"
"If you hadn't spoken up for me in front of the Emperor, I don't know how long I would be "sick" for."
When talking about the word "illness", the Queen deliberately emphasized her tone, and even the look she gave Zhen Huan was filled with a deep reminder.
How could Zhen Huan, who had been immersed in the palace for many years, not understand the meaning of the words:
When the emperor wanted to punish someone but couldn't find a suitable reason, he would use the excuse of "being sick" to let the person rest well.
But everyone in the palace knew that such "rest" was actually confinement or even solitary confinement.
Those who are lucky and have the means may be able to regain favor.
But if you have no value in the emperor's heart, you will be completely forgotten in this deep palace!
For the queen, over time, even if she is not deposed, she will lose all the power in her hands!
But the Queen's words at this time were a naked test to Zhen Huan.
Thinking of this, Zhen Huan smiled and said:
"The Empress is the master of the Central Palace and the one I respect the most."
"I have been able to live safely and smoothly in the palace for so many years, all thanks to the protection of the Queen."
"This time, I just told the truth in front of the emperor. This is what I should do."
"If the Queen thanks me for this, I will be terrified."
After hearing this, a solemn look first appeared on the Queen's face, because no matter from which angle you looked at it, there was nothing wrong with Zhen Huan's words.
Her intelligence, her wit and her ability to debate made the queen feel like a thorn in her side...
But when she thought of Zhen Huan still being there, she quickly smiled again:
"Xipin, when you say the same words, it makes me happy!"
"Not only does the emperor like it, but I like it more and more the more I listen to it!"
Zhen Huan nodded and lowered her eyebrows, always observing etiquette: "Your Majesty, I am ashamed to accept your praise."
"We are all sisters. When I praise you, you should stop being polite."
"By the way, I have been busy preparing for the promotion these days, and I haven't had time to send gifts to Princess Longyue and Prince Hongyu!"
As she spoke, the queen smiled and looked at Xiu Xia with great interest.
"Xiu Xia, go to my dressing table and get the gift I prepared in advance."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Upon hearing this, Xiu Xia quickly walked towards the inner hall.
Because the distance was close, Xiuxia brought the things the queen had ordered and handed them to the queen in a short while.
Judging from the size of the box, Zhen Huan guessed that it must contain some large jewelry.
Just as Zhen Huan was imagining, the box was opened and the contents inside were revealed to her.
"Here is a jade collar and a gold lock."
That collar is not...
When Zhen Huan saw the necklace, her first reaction was: Queen Chunyuan’s necklace!
Because in the previous life, on Longyue’s birthday, in order to make the emperor have more compassion for Longyue;
She once asked Aunt Fangruo to take out her jewelry and make a necklace for Longyue that was very similar in shape!
It turns out the queen is waiting here!
She knew clearly that the emperor treasured Chun Yuan's old things very much, yet she still dared to give them to me blatantly. She must have planned everything!
Did she want to use the "Chun Yuan's old clothes" incident at the enthronement ceremony to make the emperor think I had ulterior motives? And thus make him annoyed with me?
Queen, oh Queen, you are such a cunning old fox!
While thinking, the Queen took out the things and showed them to Zhen Huan, then closed the box again and said with a smile:
"Take them back for the princess and the prince, one for each. It will be a token of my gratitude."
Upon hearing this, Xiu Xia hurried down the stairs and handed the box to Zhen Huan with both hands.
