Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Zhen Huan

Chapter 4: Father Zhen's Advice

However, Sun Miaoqing, who was standing behind her, misbehaved in front of the palace and lost her qualification to participate in the selection forever.

As expected, Zhen Huan was given a name tag and a sachet.

Zhen Huan thought that after the palace selection in the previous life, those who she and Shen Meiyu said wanted to stay were not able to stay, but those who did not want to stay stayed.

But in her heart she also wanted to be left with a sign.

Otherwise, she would not have explained when the Queen Mother said that her surname violated the Emperor's name.

You won't pretend to be calm even though you're obviously afraid of cats.

This sounds like a candidate who has won the top spot in the imperial examination saying that he does not want to take the imperial examination anymore.

"No wonder An Lingrong felt that I looked down on her in every way. It turns out that my words in my previous life were indeed easy to be misunderstood. Every word I said seemed to be deliberately showing off."

Zhen Huan thought this in her heart and advised herself:

It’s better not to say those words that make people feel sad.

So in this life, when she and Shen Meizhuang were both chosen, all they talked about were congratulating each other and their longing for life in the harem.

She didn't mention that she didn't want to be selected.

The two of them walked hand in hand to the outside of the palace gate, then said goodbye to each other and returned home.

Liuzhu and Huanbi followed Zhen Huan's carriage all the way.

When we were almost at Zhen's house, we heard the sound of gongs and drums and a festive atmosphere.

Zhen Huan drew aside the curtain and saw that her father and mother were waiting at the door, happily welcoming their chosen daughter.

Seeing this scene, Zhen Huan felt mixed emotions.

Although she had experienced a lot in her previous life, Zhen Huan's heart was still full of gratitude towards her parents.

For her, her father and mother are her eternal spiritual support.

It is the eternal comfort in her heart when she encounters difficulties.

When Zhen Huan got off the carriage, she heard Zhen Yuandao bow and say:

"Your servant Zhen has come a long way with his whole family to see you, my lady. May your lady be blessed with good fortune."

Perhaps because of her past life, although Zhen Huan felt somewhat unhappy when facing the formalities from her parents and family members, she had gotten used to it.

She knew her father's respect for etiquette, so she didn't force him to do it.

As soon as they finished their greetings, she asked Liuzhu and Huanbi to help them up.

After entering the house, Zhen Huan explained to her father and mother that she wanted to serve her parents with courtesy before entering the palace, and her father and mother agreed.

Afterwards, he told them about his plan to bring An Lingrong into the mansion.

Zhen's father and mother thought it would be great to have one more person to take care of things in the palace, so they asked Zhen Huan to take charge of the arrangements.

The next morning, Liu Zhu took An Lingrong and Aunt Xiao to the Zhen Mansion.

An Lingrong naturally couldn't help but express her gratitude.

Zhen Huan told her to treat the Zhen Mansion as her own home and not to be restrained or polite.

When talking about whether An Lingrong was doing well, Liu Zhu said casually:

"Just now, when we went to the inn, the owner thought Miss An was a rare treasure and refused to let her go. But I scared him and sent him away."

Zhen Huan couldn't help laughing when she saw Liu Zhu's proud expression when she spoke.

Zhen Huan really likes Liu Zhu, who is lively, cheerful and smart.

What she had lost, she now had again, and she felt like she had found a treasure.

After dinner, Zhen Huan was reading in her boudoir.

According to the time in the previous life, Zhen Yuandao will come to remind her of something tonight.

Zhen Huan was reading a book, thinking she was waiting for him.

About an incense stick of time later, Zhen Yuandao arrived as expected.

He told Zhen Huan:

If you are not completely sure of gaining the emperor's favor, you must know how to bide your time and restrain your edge.

He did not expect his daughter to become rich and powerful and be the most favored in the harem in the future.

She only hopes that the apple of her eye can be happy and live in peace.

It was on this day that Zhen Huan found out that Huanbi was her half-sister.

He also learned that Huanbi's mother was the daughter of a criminal.

In her previous life, when Zhen Huan heard about Huanbi's life experience, she didn't have any other emotions except shock.

But now from Zhen Yuandao's words, Zhen Huan realized again:

The meaning of the sentence "Parents who love their children will plan for their children in the long run."

Just like in her previous life, the three days before she went to Ganlu Temple, the thought and planning she put into Longyue were the same.

Parents' worries for their children are deeply rooted in their bones.

Zhen Huan understood Zhen Yuandao's debt to Huanbi and his concerns about her future.

He told Zhen Yuandao that if he had the chance in the future, he would definitely find a good family for Huanbi.

After talking so much with his daughter, Zhen Yuandao finally felt relieved.

Not long after, the palace sent someone to convey the decree of promotion. Zhen Huan was promoted to the sixth rank of Changzai and given the title "Wan".

An Lingrong was conferred the title of seventh-rank concubine;

And Shen Meizhuang was conferred the title of noble lady just like in her previous life.

All three entered the palace on September 15th.

From the father-in-law who delivered the imperial edict, I learned that Xia Dongchun gave the teaching aunt a very harsh look.

Zhen Huan knew that she was just a small character and would soon be dealt with by Concubine Hua, so she didn't take her seriously at all.

After the eunuch delivered his decree, he left Fang Ruo behind to teach Zhen Huan and An Lingrong etiquette.

When Zhen Huan saw Fang Ruo again, she felt very close to her.

Because in the previous life, Fang Ruo helped her a lot, both openly and secretly.

Ever since Zhen Huan left the palace and went to Ganlu Temple, the Emperor didn't want to see anyone related to her, so he transferred Fang Ruo from the Imperial Court to work in the Empress Dowager's Palace.

But when Fang Ruo went to Ganlu Temple to deliver the Buddhist scriptures entrusted by the Queen Mother, she did not blame or make things difficult for Zhen Huan at all.

Zhen Huan felt that Fang Ruo was a very stable and reliable person, so she treated her even more courteously.

But when it comes to the title "Wan", Zhen Huan feels very strange.

In her previous life, Zhen Huan didn’t know what the word “Wan” meant, but the Queen naturally knew it.

Based on Zhen Huan's understanding of the Queen, she would definitely not watch the Emperor honor a woman like this without stopping him.

Then why was the title still bestowed?

From this we can see how ineffective the Queen’s words are in front of the Emperor!

Just by imagining it, Zhen Huan could imagine that the Queen could act very magnanimous even when she clearly didn't want the Emperor to do something.

This old woman is good at winning people’s hearts!

Although Zhen Huan knew everything about the palace.

But she still pretended to be ignorant and listened to Fang Ruo carefully.

When Fang Ruo talked about Concubine Hua, she was graceful and elegant, and was the leader of the Han army.

Even if all the eight banners of Manchuria and Mongolia were put together, they are still not as beautiful as Concubine Hua.

Zhen Huan sighed in her heart:

Even such a bright and arrogant Concubine Hua ended up dying by hitting her head against the wall.

Zhen Huan thought about her previous life and realized that most of her hatred for Concubine Hua was due to the Queen.

Hua Fei was domineering and decisive in her actions. She also disdained to make friends with women who competed with her for favor, so she made many enemies.

The Queen has always regarded Concubine Hua as a thorn in her eye.

From time to time, Concubine Hua had to take the blame for her.

How could the simple-minded Concubine Hua be able to compete with the Queen who often lived on lotus roots?
