Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Zhen Huan

Chao Gui knew that the emperor was on guard against her, but it didn't matter that way, since nothing was added to the soup this time anyway.

Chao Gui thought so in her heart, and then she handed the bowl of soup in her hand to Su Peisheng with a smile:

"Eunuch Su, please go slower. I spent a lot of effort to stew this. You must not spill it!"

"Please don't worry Princess, it won't spill."

Chao Gui nodded in satisfaction, then turned to look at the emperor and said:

"Brother, after you drink it, if you think it tastes good, I will make it for you every day in the future."

The emperor's eyes were deep: "It's rare that you have such intentions, but this is too much trouble. It would be bad if it makes you tired."

Chao Gui pretended not to hear the rejection in the emperor's words and said with a smile:

"My sister is not as delicate as my brother says. It's just stewing soup, how can she be so exhausted?"

After hearing what Chao Gui said, the emperor stopped talking, but Chao Gui didn't feel embarrassed.

She thought angrily in her heart that if the emperor had not asked her to go to Junggar for marriage, she would not have ended up as someone else's concubine. She was humiliated to this extent, and it was all the emperor's fault!

Therefore, she now regards herself as a meritorious official and a debt collector, and therefore, she has no fear of the emperor.

Afterwards, Chao Gui told the emperor that she felt quite lonely in the palace and wanted to hold a tea party and invite all the concubines in the palace to get together.

Her request was reasonable and the emperor couldn't refuse, so he nodded and agreed.

After Chao Gui happily thanked the Emperor, he looked at Zhen Huan and said:

"Noble Concubine Xi, as you are the leader of all the concubines, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you to inform the other concubines on my behalf."

Hearing this, the emperor looked at Chao Gui with dissatisfaction:

"When you hold a tea party, you will naturally be the one to invite. When Concubine Xi holds one, she will be the one to invite."

"How come Chaogui, you've been married for so long, have you actually forgotten our Qing dynasty's way of entertaining guests?"

The emperor's open protection made Zhen Huan feel relieved.

Chao Gui was speechless for a moment, and only reacted after a moment:

"My royal brother is right. Chao Gui was abrupt."

"It doesn't matter."

The emperor looked at Chao Gui and said calmly:

"As long as you know what you're doing."

After saying this, the emperor asked Chao Gui to leave, saying that he had other things to do.

Chao Gui was very unhappy about being blamed by the Emperor, so she took her unhappiness out on Zhen Huan.

She had once felt guilty about her arrangements at the tea party, but not anymore.

Concubine Xi, just wait for me. The day of the tea party will be the day you lose your son!

You're dreaming of making your son the crown prince!

You want to have both favor and power in one person, but I won’t let you do that!

As a woman, why does God give you all the luck?

But no matter how much God has given you, I will take it all away from you. I can't bear to see others have what I don't have! Especially you - Zhen Huan!

Thinking this in his mind, Chao Gui went to the post station to find Moge angrily.

After Chao Gui left, Zhen Huan pretended to be ignorant and looked at the emperor and said:

"Your Majesty, Princess Chaogui came to bring you soup out of kindness. Why do you have to be so angry just because of her words?"

"If this damages the dragon's body, you will make me very sad!"

"Send soup?"

The Emperor looked at Zhen Huan and said meaningfully:

"If she really cared about me, she wouldn't have sent me this soup!"

"Your Majesty, do you mean... there is something wrong with this soup?"

Zhen Huan pretended to be incredulous and pointed at the soup on the table and asked.

Su Peisheng was also shocked:

"Your Majesty, you must not drink it! Why don't I ask the imperial physician to come and check it out?"

The emperor raised his hand:

"No need."

"She wouldn't be so stupid as to let me catch her the first time she sent me soup, and she certainly wouldn't be so stupid as to poison me to death in one go..."

"Didn't you hear her say that she would send me this soup every day? If I let my guard down, there might be something unclean in the soup."

"Then wouldn't it be enough for Your Majesty to simply not allow Princess Chaogui to send soup over?" Su Peisheng said to the emperor.

"If I don't let her send me off, how can I know what drug she is going to give me? And how can I let the fox hiding behind her show its tail?"

"Not only will I ask her to deliver it, I will also drink it in front of her!"

Then, the emperor looked at Su Peisheng and ordered:

"Su Peisheng, go and see what she put in the soup, and have someone prepare a portion for me every day."

The emperor thought that if Chao Gui wanted to play these things in front of him, she was still too naive.

But he was willing to accompany her and see what Chao Gui and Moge behind her wanted to do.

After talking about Chao Gui, Zhen Huan remembered that there was one important thing she hadn't explained to the Emperor, so she said:

"Your Majesty, since the full moon banquets for the Seventh Prince and Princess Lingxi are being held in the palace at the same time, I am wondering if we should invite Master Chong Jingyuan to come to the palace..."

Chongjing Yuanshi was the title given to Concubine Shu when she became a nun.

The Emperor knew what Zhen Huan meant, and that was to use Concubine Shu to restrain Prince Guo.

"Xia Qian hasn't replied yet, but your suggestion is good. If Master Chong Jingyuan enters the palace, I think my Seventeenth Brother will be very happy."

After saying this, the emperor and Zhen Huan looked at each other, neither of them spoke, and they reached a tacit understanding on this matter.

On the other side, Yujiao and Cui'er had also arrived at the place mentioned on the note.

Yujiao looked around. The surroundings looked very desolate. There was nothing except a thatched hut.

Just when Yujiao was at a loss, a man's voice suddenly came from behind her:

"Yufujin..."

Yujiao turned around and saw the boy dressed as a beggar.

"Yu Fu-jin, I know you have many questions in your mind now. Please follow me in first, and I will explain them to you one by one later."

The servant pointed at the thatched hut in front of them and made a gesture of invitation. Yujiao and Cui'er looked at each other and followed the servant in.

As soon as she walked into the room, Yujiao noticed a woman lying on the bed. The woman was pale, her eyes were closed, and she looked very painful.

Yujiao looked at the servant with some confusion:

"She is……"

"She is the one I carried back from the mass grave... She seemed to have been poisoned. I was afraid of being targeted by the people in the palace, so I had no choice but to dress up as a beggar and stop your sedan chair in the street..."

Yujiao was shocked:

"I see."

"Have you asked a doctor to examine her?"

"I have already asked a doctor on the way back. He should be here soon."

While Yujiao was talking to the servant, the woman on the couch suddenly looked at Yujiao and said in a weak voice:

"Yu... Yu Fujin... I... I have something to say to you..."
