Shen Meizhuang said that the sisters should share the grace of the Heavenly Family.

She was just about to return to the palace and have someone pick out some good ones to send to her sisters' palaces.

Shen Meizhuang let Xia Dongchun choose first.

Xia Dongchun said disdainfully:

"My Xia family has plenty of these things to enjoy."

"It seems that Lady Shen's small favors are really good at winning people's hearts."

In her previous life, Zhen Huan was angry because of Xia Dongchun's arrogant attitude.

Now it just seems ridiculous.

She had never seen another person who was so eager to seek death as her until she became the empress dowager.

At this time, An Lingrong was heard saying:

"I heard that Sister Xia was born into a family of brave warriors. I admire her very much."

Xia Dongchun snorted softly, his tail almost lifted to the sky with pride:

"My family has been brave and loyal to the country for generations. How can a county magistrate like you be compared to them?"

An Lingrong brought up the incident on the day of the talent show when she spilled tea on Xia Dongchun.

She said that it was an unintentional mistake and she regretted it day and night afterwards.

An Lingrong flattered Xia Dongchun a few more times.

Then he said:

"Sister is indeed so brave and worthy of the family."

Xia Dongchun thought An Lingrong was praising her, and said with pride:

"This has always been my family motto."

After saying this, he put on an extremely glorious look and stood by, smugly looking.

After a while, Xia Dongchun realized that the atmosphere was not right.

He turned around and saw everyone laughing with their heads down, then he realized that An Lingrong was teasing him.

Feeling fooled, she angrily raised her hand to hit An Lingrong in the face.

Zhen Huan stopped Xia Dongchun with her hands:

"She is your concubine, how can you hit her?"

"Aren't you afraid that Concubine Hua will blame you if she finds out?"

Xia Dongchun struggled hard to get rid of Zhen Huan's hand;

He said contemptuously:

"What is there to be afraid of, Concubine Hua?"

"Is she older than the Queen?"

As he said this, he was about to reach out and hit An Lingrong again.

At this moment, Zhou Ninghai grabbed Xia Dongchun's arm tightly from behind.

Xia Dongchun, who didn't understand why, was still struggling:

"Let go, let go!"

It was not until she saw Concubine Hua coming here with the support of Songzhi that Xia Dongchun was forced to kneel down by Zhou Ninghai.

She cried out guiltily:

"Empress Hua."

Concubine Hua didn't even look at Xia Dongchun.

In her eyes, someone with Xia Dongchun's family background was not even worthy of carrying her shoes.

Concubine Hua asked Zhou Ninghai to let her go, and said meaningfully:

"The Imperial Garden is so picturesque in autumn, but it's really disappointing that such a beautiful view has been disturbed by someone."

Xia Dongchun had not yet realized the anger in Hua Fei's words.

She continued to argue:

"An promised that she was rude, and I just wanted to teach her a lesson, just a lesson..."

I have to say Xia Dongchun is really bad at speaking!

She brings up things that are not related to the topic!

Every word she said was a blow to Concubine Hua's board!

Hua Fei looked at Xia Dongchun and said with gritted teeth:

"Are both the Queen and I gone?"

"I didn't know that Concubine Xia is the head of the harem!"

"It's a pity for you to teach the concubines."

"I'm afraid you can't bear this hardship!"

The momentum of Hua Fei's words forced Xia Dongchun to tremble involuntarily.

"The maple leaves this year don't seem to be red enough!"

These words floated out of Hua Fei's mouth lightly.

Others may not be able to understand what Concubine Hua meant.

But Songzhi had been serving Concubine Hua since she was a child, so she naturally understood what Concubine Hua meant.

Then she said:

"I heard that maple leaves look beautiful only when they are dyed with blood."

"Then I'll give Xia Chang a reward of one zhang red!"

"Even if it's using her blood, it can add some color to the maple leaves in the palace."

When Hua Fei said this, she almost gritted her teeth.

In her previous life, Zhen Huan heard the palace maids talking about how Xia Dongchun once said in front of Zhou Ninghai that the gifts she gave were not as good as those given by the Queen.

Then he wore clothes made of cloth sent by the queen and paraded around;

When she went to pay her respects to the Queen, she said tactlessly that Hua Fei's grand show was for whom.

With all these things happening, how could Concubine Hua tolerate her?

Xia Dongchun didn't even know what the punishment of "yizhang hong" was?

When he heard Zhou Ninghai's explanation, he was so scared that he immediately collapsed to the ground.

She changed her arrogant attitude and kept begging for mercy from Concubine Hua.

But Concubine Hua remained unmoved and ordered her servants to drag Xia Dongchun to the Ministry of Punishment for execution.

Having experienced it in her previous life and witnessing it again with her own eyes, Zhen Huan did not feel too much of a stir.

Just as Concubine Hua said, Xia Dongchun brought this fate upon herself.

In other words, even if Concubine Hua did not punish her today, she would have no way to survive in the future.

Concubine Hua left after telling the three of them to go back and reflect on their mistakes.

An Lingrong was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground.

The three people came to their senses and ran all the way to the Imperial Garden.

An Lingrong kept stroking her chest and said:

I'm so scared, I'm so scared!

Perhaps because I had wasted some time just now, I heard the screams of palace maids as soon as I arrived at the Imperial Garden.

Zhen Huan knew what was happening.

Because she was here in her previous life, and she saw things she shouldn't have seen out of curiosity.

Later I heard from others that the person in the well was Fu Zi from Concubine Hua's palace.

So Zhen Huan stopped Shen Meizhuang who wanted to ask "what happened" and told her that it is better to mind her own business.

And now An Lingrong was frightened again, and the three of them couldn't afford to get into any more trouble, so this time none of them went to the well to check.

Zhen Huan thought of Fu Zi's matter.

In her previous life, she heard the palace maids talking about it, saying that it was because the emperor looked at Fuzi a few more times and praised Fuzi a few words;

In addition, Concubine Xin had a miscarriage, and the emperor always went to her palace, which made Concubine Hua upset, so she asked Zhou Ninghai to send this poor person away.

When Zhen Huan recalled that in her previous life, when she saw Fu Zi in the well, she was completely soaked.

Thinking about that scene now, it’s still scary.

But it was the Queen who took the opportunity to give Fu Zi to Concubine Hua.

The relationship between the Queen and Concubine Hua has always been tense;

The Queen also knew that Concubine Hua would never keep Fuzi by her side.

Now that she thought about it, she deliberately placed Fuzi next to Concubine Hua, hoping that Concubine Hua would make a mistake so that she could complain to the Emperor.

A thousand-mile embankment collapsed in an ant nest!

It is these seemingly insignificant things that make Concubine Hua the target of public criticism time and time again.

As expected, Concubine Hua did not disappoint the Queen!

He did two things that made the queen happy:

One was that Xia Dongchun was crippled, and the other was that Fuzi was soaked.

Zhen Huan thought that the Queen must be very busy now, busy questioning Concubine Hua and busy exposing Concubine Hua's shortcomings in front of the Emperor.

"My lady, Jiang Fuhai just came over to pass on the Queen's decree, saying that starting tomorrow, the new ladies must prepare to serve the Queen in bed."

As soon as she returned to Sui Yuxuan, Jing Xi told Zhen Huan the news.

Kang Luhai was even more happy and kept flattering him, saying that his young lady must be the first to receive the favor.
