Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Zhen Huan

Chapter 42 "Two People Are Bullied" Cao Qinmo

Concubine Hua snatched the fan from Songzhi and smashed it directly on Cao Qinmo's head.

Cao Qinmo didn't dodge at all, and the fan hit her head directly:

"It's a hot summer day, and your Majesty is bound to be angry. As long as your Majesty can calm down, I am willing to accept any punishment."

Cao Qinmo was born into a humble family, a beautiful girl from a ruined family. She was sent to the palace with a name tag, but she could not even see the emperor.

If Concubine Hua had not promoted her to serve the Emperor, she would have never had the opportunity to give birth to Wen Yi and become a noble lady.

Cao Qinmo knew this very well, so she had been enduring in silence under Concubine Hua's control all these years.

Hua Fei said angrily: "I don't know how I have offended the emperor this time. He even planned not to take me with him when he went to Yuanmingyuan."

"It must be that Concubine Wan has bewitched the Emperor, and the Empress is interfering, so that now it is difficult for me to even see the Emperor once."

As she spoke, she looked at Cao Qinmo fiercely:

"I have protected you for so many years, but you never give me any advice. What's the point of me keeping you here?"

Cao Qinmo looked at Concubine Hua and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. I am willing to serve you like a dog or a horse."

Concubine Hua looked at Cao Qinmo with disdain: "Just you?"

Cao Qinmo said that the emperor loved his children deeply and Wen Yi was quite loved by the emperor.

After hearing this, Concubine Hua asked Cao Qinmo to stand up, saying that she was lucky to have a daughter by her side, unlike her who was helpless.

Cao Qinmo understood what Concubine Hua meant, and immediately said that she was able to have what she had today thanks to Concubine Hua's protection.

When Wen Yi grows up, he will definitely treat Concubine Hua as his own mother and be filial to her.

After hearing this, Concubine Hua's anger subsided a lot:

"Look at you, your hair is all messed up, and you are still here talking to me. It's hard for you."

So she asked Songzhi to take Cao Qinmo downstairs to dress up and change clothes.

He also reminded Cao Qinmo to bring Wen Yi to pay respects to the emperor.

Cao Qinmo knew very well that the relationship between Concubine Hua and the Queen was like fire and water, so she didn't want to offend the Queen openly.

So, she used the excuse that she couldn't speak and asked Concubine Hua to give her a hairpin with a phoenix wearing peony.

When the Queen and the Emperor were discussing which concubines to take away for the summer heat, Cao Qinmo quietly took off her hairpin and amused Wen Yi.

The emperor knew at a glance that the hairpin was given by him to Concubine Hua.

This also gave Cao Qinmo an opportunity:

"Yes, every time Concubine Hua wears this hairpin, the princess will laugh, so Concubine Hua gave it to me to amuse the princess."

Although she didn't do anything to persuade the emperor, she made him change his mind and let Concubine Hua go as well.

It is true that cruel people don't talk much, and dogs that bite don't bark.

It was just a very ordinary sentence, but it got the job done.

This inevitably made Zhen Huan feel fortunate. If Cao Qinmo had lived to the time of the blood test in the previous life, she would probably not have passed it no matter what!

The day to go to the Old Summer Palace soon arrived. In this life, there were two more people, Yu Ying'er and An Lingrong, than in the previous one.

Just like in her previous life, Zhen Huan lived in Bitong Academy.

Looking at everything familiar in front of her and listening to Huang Guiquan's introduction, Zhen Huan felt very comfortable and said that she would go to thank the emperor in person later.

Huang Guiquan said that the emperor was currently practicing horse riding and archery, accompanied by Prince Guo and Cao Qinmo.

Zhen Huan thought that she and the emperor met in this life without going through the name of Prince Guo, so it didn't matter. So she thought about going to see Concubine Duan.

At this moment, Yu Ying'er rushed over and said that she learned from Concubine Hua that Cao Qinmo wanted to use Prince Guo to sow discord between her and the emperor.

Zhen Huan was puzzled: "How could this happen?"

Yu Ying'er lowered her head with embarrassment and said:

"Sister, there is one thing I forgot to tell you. At that time, Concubine Hua sent someone to find me in Yimei Garden. I told her that Prince Guo spoke for you, saying that the position of Wan Changzai was really unfair to you..."

Seeing that Zhen Huan didn't say anything, Yu Ying'er said self-reproachfully: "It's all my fault, but I had no choice at the time..."

Zhen Huan thought for a moment, pointed at Yu Ying'er's head, and said jokingly:

"I'll settle this matter with you later! Now I'm going to go find the emperor, do you want to go, sister?"

"Go, go, go! I'm going..."

"Anyway, Concubine Hua asked me to stay by my sister's side and pay more attention to her daily behavior. My relationship with my sister seems to be getting closer, and she is very happy about it!"

So Zhen Huan and Yu Ying'er took their personal maids to the place where the emperor practiced riding and archery.

As soon as she arrived at the venue, she saw a wild pigeon landed in front of her. Yu Ying'er shouted: "What a great swordsmanship!"

Zhen Huan took a look and explained to Yu Ying'er:

"This is a wild pigeon from the west of Beijing. It is known for its agility and swiftness. It can pierce four eyes with one arrow. Its swordsmanship is really accurate."

The Emperor saw Zhen Huan coming and asked: "Lady Wan, why are you two here?"

"I heard that the emperor was practicing horse riding and archery here. I was jealous and brought my sister here to see the emperor's heroic figure."

"I didn't expect that as soon as I came in, I saw the emperor shoot down a wild pigeon. His swordsmanship is really accurate."

When the emperor heard Zhen Huan praising him, his face lit up with joy:

"Mrs. Wan is really good at talking. I love listening to her."

"But this wild pigeon was shot by my Seventeenth Brother. I dare not take the credit from him."

The emperor was in a good mood and couldn't stop praising Prince Guo as he looked at him.

"Thank you for your compliment, my brother."

At this time, Cao Qinmo came over, looked at the emperor and said with a smile:

"Your Majesty, it seems that Lady Wan has spoken highly of Prince Guo. I wonder if my sister has heard of the prince's reputation when she was still a boudoir girl?"

Zhen Huan knew that Cao Qinmo's seemingly joking words actually concealed a deep trap, but since you are here, would she still be afraid of you?

Then he walked to the emperor with a smile:

"Sister Cao, you have been watching for a long time, so you naturally know that this pigeon was shot down by Prince Guo. But I just arrived and didn't know. I only have eyes for the emperor, so I thought it was shot down by the emperor!"

Zhen Huan looked at the emperor with admiration on her face, and made the emperor very happy.

Seeing Cao Qin remained silent, Zhen Huan continued:

"But just now even the Emperor praised Prince Guo's swordsmanship. Doesn't Sister Cao agree?"

Cao Qinmo lowered his eyebrows and looked at the emperor:

"Your Majesty, I naturally agree with what you said. Prince Guo's swordsmanship is outstanding, and I admire him very much."

The emperor burst into laughter. He patted Prince Guo on the shoulder and pointed at Zhen Huan and Cao Qinmo and said:

"Seventeenth brother, look, they are arguing about even this."

Prince Guo glanced at Zhen Huan, then bowed to the emperor and said:

"I am very envious of my brother, the emperor, for being able to enjoy such a blessing!"

The emperor laughed again.

Zhen Huan walked up to the emperor, took his arm, and said jokingly:

"Your Majesty, Sister Cao just asked me about the prince's reputation. I wonder if I have heard of it when I was a child. But my family is very strict and I have never been out of the house. If I hadn't met Your Majesty on New Year's Eve, I'm afraid I wouldn't know who the prince is!"

"But Sister Cao is different. Sister Cao has been serving in the palace since early morning."

"Could Your Majesty ask me if Sister Cao has always admired the prince's reputation?"
