Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Zhen Huan

Chapter 35: Selection of the Suiyuxuan Competition

"I know you are sad about your mother's situation, but now things have come to this, and we can't change anything. We can only wait and plan slowly in the future. Do you understand?"

Huanbi nodded: "Huanbi understands."

Zhen Huan took out a basket from under the bed and asked Huan Bi to open it. When she saw the paper money inside, she couldn't help crying again:

"Eldest sister, Huanbi doesn't know that you have done so much for her silently."

"Look, why are you crying again for no reason? You are my sister, no matter how much I do for you, it is my duty."

Zhen Huan really has no way to deal with Huanbi. Maybe people who have lacked love since childhood are so easily moved:

"Well, it's getting late. Find a place where no one is around and burn these for your mother. It will be a token of my appreciation."

"It's my eldest sister." Huanbi said as she was about to go out with the basket.

Zhen Huan reminded: "Stop crying now, lest others see you and become suspicious."

Huanbi nodded obediently.

This time, she chose a place very carefully, fearing that she would accidentally implicate Zhen Huan.

In this life, Huanbi never cried to her mother about her helplessness, nor did she complain to her mother that they were both daughters of the same father, but why the eldest sister could bring honor to the family while she could only be a servant.

All she told her mother was how good Zhen Huan was to her, and that her father Zhen Yuandao also loved her, so she told her mother not to worry, that her life would get better and better in the future.

After this matter was settled, Huanbi returned to her former happiness.

Liu Zhu jumped up to Huanbi and joked, "Huanbi, I finally see you smile today."

"Is there ever a day when I didn't laugh?"

"Just now, a few days ago, you were like a frost-bitten eggplant, with a bad face when you saw everyone. I thought I had done something wrong to offend you!"

"No way, if you keep saying that, I'll tear your mouth apart."

Huanbi stretched out her hand towards Liuzhu as she spoke. Liuzhu saw that this was not going to work, so she started to cry and run to Zhen Huan's side, pouted her lips and pointed at Huanbi to complain:

"My lady, I just said a few words to Huanbi and she wanted to rip my mouth off. My lady, you have to make the decision for me!"

As he said this, he looked at Huanbi with a smug look on his face.

Zhen Huan put down the embroidery in her hands, looked at the two people in front of her who were panting, and smiled:

"If she hits you, you just take it. It's not right for you to come and complain when you can't beat her. I don't care about this matter."

As he said this, he lowered his head and covered his mouth and laughed.

Liu Zhu saw Zhen Huan teasing her on purpose, so she pretended to be angry and turned her face away: "Look at you, young lady, you only know how to protect Huanbi."

"Alright, girls, stop messing around. The young master has something to tell you."

Jinxi walked in from the door with a smile. A few people looked back and saw many servants gathered in the yard.

Liu Zhu and Huan Bi were both curious: "Young Master has something to tell us, how come we don't know about it?"

Zhen Huan tapped Liu Zhu's nose: "With your playful natures..."

After finding out, I realized that Zhen Huan had told Jing Xi early in the morning to gather all the servants in the palace. She wanted to ask them one by one who had special skills, such as singing, dancing... and so on.

She wants to pick the one she likes best and keep him by her side to serve her.

Jinxi was also asked to deliberately release the news in order to let Concubine Hua know what means Yu Ying'er had used to gain her appreciation, and also to prepare for the upcoming trip to the Old Summer Palace.

After Concubine Hua got the news, she sent someone to tell Yu Ying'er that she must seize this opportunity to serve Zhen Huan closely.

In order to gain the favor of their master, many palace servants in Suiyuxuan, no matter how small their weight, all wanted to give it a try, and in the end, many people were left behind.

Zhen Huan asked those who thought they had talents to go down and prepare well. After a few days, she would personally observe and select them. Yu Ying'er was naturally among these people.

Zhen Huan also invited Shen Meizhuang, An Lingrong, and Chun'er to come and enjoy the show together.

There have never been any secrets in the palace, and many people in the palace knew about this matter.

When paying respects to the Queen, she also mentioned this matter:

"I heard that the palace of Wan Guiren is planning to hold some kind of competition?"

Zhen Huan stood up and bowed to the Queen: "It's just that I'm bored and want to kill time."

Hearing what Zhen Huan said, Concubine Qi said sourly: "As soon as the emperor is not in the palace, Concubine Wan feels bored. How can we live like this?"

This time, Concubine Hua did not target Zhen Huan. While touching her hair, she glanced at Concubine Qi:

"What Concubine Qi said sounds really sour. If you are not satisfied, you can do it!"

Zhen Huan noticed that when the Queen heard Concubine Hua say this, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.

Concubine Qi couldn't believe her ears. She looked at Concubine Hua with her clear and stupid eyes and thought silently in her heart:

"Aiya, what's wrong with Concubine Hua today? She actually spoke up for Concubine Wan. Did the sun rise from the west?"

But she didn't dare to show it, she just smiled at Hua Fei:

"Oh, how can I be as elegant as Lady Wan? I can only stay in Changchun Palace and stare at mahjong in a daze!"

Zhen Huan knew in her heart that Concubine Hua was not speaking for her, she was just anxious to send her man to her side.

As for the fact that Concubine Qi likes to play mahjong, it is something that everyone in the palace knows.

Just like Jingpin likes to raise turtles...

The women in this palace fear most that they will be idle, because as long as they are idle, there will be endless fighting.

Sometimes, Zhen Huan would think, why do we have to fight with each other? Wouldn't it be better for everyone to play mahjong together, raise pets, and watch singing and dancing performances?

But how can people have the same ideas?

Where there are women there are a lot of gossips. They play tricks, shed tears, and put on a smiling face to gossip.

On the surface, everything seems calm, but underneath, there are undercurrents. Just because you want to stay out of trouble doesn't mean others won't cause you trouble.

There are so many tricks involved!

After all the concubines had discussed it, the Queen looked at Zhen Huan with a smile in her eyes:

"No wonder the Emperor dotes on Concubine Wan so much. Even I like Concubine Wan more and more the more I look at her."

"If the sisters in our harem could be as quiet as Lady Wan when serving the emperor, and not fight or compete for things, but just stay in their own world, then it would be much easier to manage this huge harem."

Zhen Huan's ears were almost callused from hearing the Queen say such things. People who didn't know would think that she was praising her, but in fact, the Queen was helping her to attract hatred all the time!

But she had to stand up and bow to accompany her in the play: "Your Majesty, I am so ashamed to receive your praise."

Before the Queen could speak, Concubine Hua rolled her eyes at Zhen Huan. She touched the armor on her hand and said in a smug manner:

"Whether you dare to accept it or not, you have already accepted it. Why does Wan Guiren have to say these hypocritical words?"

"Okay, stop talking. Concubine Hua, you too, Concubine Wan is such a polite person, how can you say that to her!"

After saying this, the queen asked everyone to leave on the grounds that it was getting late.
