Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Zhen Huan

This kneeling scared everyone present.

Songzhi immediately walked to Concubine Hua with distressed look on her face:

"My lady, you are in a very bad condition now, you must not be so sad!"

"If you have anything to say, just speak to the Emperor. The Emperor dotes on the Empress so much, he must be willing to support her in everything!"

Concubine Hua did not answer, but looked at the emperor with tears in her eyes.

When the Emperor saw Concubine Hua like this, he couldn't bear it and his hands behind his back unconsciously tightened.

He had a vague feeling that Concubine Hua must have known something for behaving this way.

Otherwise, according to Concubine Hua's previous personality, if she became pregnant, she would have flaunted her bulging belly everywhere.

I guess he even wants to lift his tail up to the sky, so how can he have time to kneel on the ground and cry?

"Shilan, the ground is cold. If you have anything to say, get up and talk to me slowly."

The emperor walked over and wanted to help Concubine Hua up, but Concubine Hua insisted on kneeling down to finish her next words.

Seeing this, Su Peisheng felt that it was not appropriate to stay here for long, so he winked at Wen Shichu.

The two of them had the same idea, and after they finished their greetings, they slipped away at the speed of light.

Although Songzhi was concerned about Concubine Hua, she knew it was not appropriate for her to be there at the moment, so she covered her eyes, sent everyone away, walked out with red eyes, and considerately closed the palace door.

"Shilan, there are only you and I in the palace now, just say whatever you want to say!"

The emperor spoke in a calm tone as always, but he did not dare to look directly at Concubine Hua.

The clenched hands and downcast eyes showed that the emperor had roughly guessed what Concubine Hua was going to say next.

Concubine Hua could see the emperor's embarrassment, but she didn't intend to let him go.

She thought to herself that if this matter was destined not to go as she wished, she might as well go with the child!

Thinking of this, Concubine Hua felt less fearful:

"Over the years, there has always been something that I don't understand in my heart, and I want to ask the emperor for an answer..."

"That year, because I drank the bowl of 'pregnancy medicine' brought by Concubine Duan, I suffered from severe abdominal pain that night and miscarried the male fetus that had already taken shape..."

"The Emperor knew all this, but why did he hold it high up and then put it down so gently? Not only did he let that bitch go, he also promoted her to the position of concubine, bestowed her with a title, and made her equal to a concubine!"

"Whenever I think of the title 'Duan', I can't help but think of the bowl of medicine she gave me..."

"Just because she brought that bowl of medicine, did the Emperor grant her the title of Concubine Duan?"

When she talked about the past, Concubine Hua felt like a knife was stabbing her heart, cutting it all the time.

Seeing her crying and heartbroken, the emperor felt an unspeakable pain in his heart.

Over the years, he would also blame himself for the child he killed with his own hands!

But his feelings of self-blame were not as deep or severe as those of Concubine Hua!

It was he who turned the woman who was once as bright as the sun into the sad and miserable woman she is today.

And Concubine Hua was talking about something else, and for a moment, the emperor's guilt reached its peak.

"Shilan, it's not what you think..."

The emperor wanted to explain, but he choked the moment the words came out of his mouth. He opened and closed his mouth again and again, but finally swallowed the words back.

At this time, Concubine Hua stood up with red eyes:

"If not? Why can the emperor watch the murderer of his child go unpunished?"

"If the emperor hadn't given his approval, how could Concubine Duan adopt the Fourth Prince?"

"If Your Majesty does not agree, how can Concubine Duan still gain Your Majesty's favor after falling out of favor?"

The continuous questions made the emperor at a loss for words. He pursed his lips tightly, not even realizing that they had turned white:

"Empress Hua, you are so rude..."

The emperor's voice was not as majestic as usual, and sounded a little weak.

Concubine Hua snorted:

"Your Majesty, isn't this the Shilan you know?"

"The reason why I tell you this is not to challenge the emperor..."

"I just want to tell the emperor that even though I know all this, I am still his concubine."

"I understand your Majesty's helplessness and that you often have to do things that go against your will for the sake of state affairs."

"In the past, it was my fault and that of my brother. It was my brother and I's attitude that made His Majesty feel in danger. So, I don't blame His Majesty for the child's matter..."

As she spoke, Concubine Hua raised her palm and wiped away the tears on her face:

"But right now, I have another child..."

Concubine Hua had tears in her eyes, but she lowered her head and smiled as she looked at her belly. Then she knelt at the emperor's feet, holding onto his clothes and crying:

"Your Majesty, you know how much I have hoped to have another child over the years..."

"Now that I am pregnant, I only hope that this child can grow up safely by my side. Other than that, I have no other requests."

The emperor looked down at Concubine Hua, moved his throat, but said nothing.

At this moment, he was also very conflicted.

He wanted to fulfill Concubine Hua's wish, but he also had his own worries...

Seeing that the emperor lowered his eyes and said nothing, Concubine Hua moved her knees, raised her head, pulled the emperor's collar, stopped crying, and said seriously:

"If Your Majesty is worried, please immediately remove my title of Imperial Concubine..."

"As long as the emperor allows me to keep the child, I will not be a concubine. I will not hesitate to accept any position the emperor gives me."

"Also, I promise you that even if I give birth to a prince in the future, I will never think of stealing the throne."

"As long as the emperor allows me to raise the child, I am willing to let the child be born under the name of another member of the royal family, so that this child will never have the possibility of inheriting the ancestral temple..."

"If Your Majesty doesn't believe me, I am willing to swear on myself and the child in my belly..."

As she spoke, Concubine Hua wiped the tears from her face, knelt down, bent her thumb and little finger, and pretended to swear an oath.

When the Emperor heard that Concubine Hua had taken the initiative to say that she did not want to be a concubine, his heart was already shaken;

Later, when he heard her say that if it was a prince, he could be named after someone else, he became even more convinced that Concubine Hua was not just talking.

How could the emperor not be moved by such a sincere love for his son!

This inevitably reminded the emperor of his own life experience:

How wonderful it would be if the Empress Dowager could love her children as much as Concubine Hua does!

When he came to his senses, he heard Concubine Hua swear on herself and the child. The emperor hurriedly bent down to help her up:

"Shilan, don't say such stupid things, get up quickly!"

The emperor's words gave Concubine Hua hope.

She knelt there, allowing the emperor to hold her up, but she did not stand up. She looked at the emperor with tears in her eyes:

"Your Majesty, are you agreeing to Shi Lan's request?"

The emperor looked at her deeply, moved his mouth and nodded.

When Concubine Hua heard the emperor say this, tears welled up in her eyes. She cried and laughed as the emperor helped her up:

"That's great, that's great! Your Majesty, you finally agreed to Shilan!"

"Child, child, do you hear that?"

Then, there was another heart-wrenching cry. The emperor hugged her in his arms and patted her back tenderly:

"Don't cry, Shilan. Good fortune is coming for you and your child."
