After Prince Guo was reborn, Zhen Huan became invincible

Zhen Huan glanced at Prince Guo with a smile. She sat gracefully in front of the zither, her slender fingers lightly brushing the strings, which produced pleasant and melodious sounds.

Prince Guo, who was standing by, played the melodious flute to the tune of Zhen Huan. The two of them were in perfect harmony.

“?????‖§∮????‖§??............”

Concubine Shu, who was sitting nearby, listened to the song "Chang Xiang Si" played by the couple in front of her. The scenes of her past love with the late emperor seemed to be vivid in her mind. With tears in her eyes, Concubine Shu couldn't help but recite Li Bai's "Chang Xiang Si" in her mouth.

"Longing for you breaks my heart. The sun is about to set and the flowers are covered with smoke. The moon is bright and I am worried and can't sleep."

"The Zhao harp first stopped at the phoenix pillar, and the Shu qin was about to play the mandarin duck strings."

"This song has meaning but no one to pass it on, I wish I could send it to Yanran with the spring breeze."

"My thoughts of you are so far away across the blue sky. My eyes, which used to be filled with tears, are now flowing like a fountain."

"If you don't believe me, I'm heartbroken. Come back and look in front of the mirror."

The lyrics of "Longing" accompanied by the melody are intoxicating, and the three people each recall the most beautiful memories in their hearts.

When the song was over, the poem that Concubine Shu had recited also ended. At this time, tears had already flowed from her eyes. She said slowly:

"Since the late emperor left, it has been a long time since I heard the sound of Chang Xiang Si and Chang Xiang Shou playing together."

"Hearing this piano and flute ensemble again today, it feels just like the ensemble I played with the late emperor back then." Concubine Shu was very satisfied after listening to the ensemble.

At this time, the little nun behind Concubine Shu spoke up, "What the Concubine said is true. It's fine to play other instruments, but we need to miss each other and stay together forever. It not only tests the skill and ability of the players, but also requires the players to have a tacit understanding and know each other. Only then can they play out the emotions. Otherwise, how can we have the charm of missing each other and staying together?"

Zhen Huan replied modestly: "Aunt Jiyun's words are like a blind cat catching a dead mouse. It is understandable that Yunli and I know each other, but if you say that we have a romantic relationship, it is really ridiculous."

The nun admired Zhen Huan's modesty very much. She immediately apologized and said, "I am just saying that I am happy. Please don't be offended, madam."

Prince Guo said: "Today, with my mother's singing, it is really perfect."

Zhen Huan said to Concubine Shu: "You can only feel the charm of the zither and flute performance, it is better to sing the lyrics of Chang Xiang Si directly. For the concubine, the love and friendship in the world is better to be direct and clear than to be subtle and euphemistic."

After hearing what Zhen Huan said, Concubine Shu really understood her heart. She praised: "Huan'er can be considered as my soulmate."

Concubine Shu liked Zhen Huan very much. She was well-educated, intelligent, humble, and beautiful. No wonder her son liked Zhen Huan so much.

Then Concubine Shu asked Zhen Huan again, "Can you play the Longing for Love well?"

Zhen Huan nodded and said, "Very good, Huan Er has never played such a wonderful zither before."

"If you are good at playing Chang Xiang Si, I will give it to you. It will not be a waste of this wonderful instrument." Concubine Shu said to Zhen Huan.

"I feel unworthy to accept such a precious gift." Zhen Huan felt a little embarrassed. This was originally a gift from Concubine Shu to the late emperor as a souvenir. How could she take it for herself?

"It doesn't matter. I haven't played the piano for a long time. It's meaningless to keep this good piano with me. It's better to give it to someone who is destined to have it." Concubine Shu said gently.

Seeing that Zhen Huan still wanted to refuse, Prince Guo said, "Huan'er, since my mother has asked, it means that she likes you very much and has already regarded you as her future daughter-in-law. You should accept her. We will have more opportunities to play together in the future."

When Zhen Huan heard this, she immediately lowered her head and blushed. Then, she said, "Thank you, Concubine."

Afterwards, the nun put Chang Xiangsi's zither into a storage bag and waited for Prince Guo and Zhen Huan to take it away.

Prince Guo also asked about Concubine Shu's recent health condition. Concubine Shu said that everything was fine with her, and the only thing she was worried about was her son, Prince Guo.

Zhen Huan and Prince Guo had lunch with Concubine Shu at Anqi Temple again. After the meal, the two left.

Zhen Huan felt that Concubine Shu was very easy-going and comfortable to get along with. She had a very similar temperament to Prince Guo, both of them were gentle and kind people.

Yikun Palace

Su Peisheng led a group of young eunuchs to the gate of Yikun Palace. When the palace maid guarding the gate saw them, she immediately went in to report. "Your Majesty, Eunuch Su wants to see you."

When Concubine Hua heard the news, her eyes lit up and she quickly said, "Please come in."

"Your servant pays homage to Her Majesty Concubine Hua!" Su Peisheng and the eunuchs behind him saluted respectfully to Concubine Hua.

When Concubine Hua saw Su Peisheng coming, she knew that he must have been sent by the Emperor. Her eyes lit up and she happily stepped forward to greet him:

"No need to be polite. Eunuch Su is here in my Yikun Palace today. But what good news does the emperor want you to bring to me?"

Su Peisheng smiled and said to Concubine Hua, "Your Majesty, the Emperor ordered me to send you another fragrance that is more suitable for you, called Yiningxiang. This fragrance is also given by the Emperor alone, and you are the only one in the whole palace who can enjoy it. The Emperor said that he is tired of smelling Huanyixiang and likes this Yiningxiang more. I hope you can use it more often."

After hearing this, Concubine Hua smiled happily and said to Su Peisheng, "The Emperor loves me the most. The spices he bestows on me are always unique."

Hua Fei then asked, "Eunuch Su, do you know the difference between this Yining incense and the Huanyi incense?"

Su Peisheng replied: "To answer your Majesty's question, this Yining incense is more elegant than the Huanyi incense, its fragrance lasts longer, and it also has the effect of calming the mind and calming the heart."

Concubine Hua nodded and said, "That's great. Thank you, Eunuch Su, for coming over."

"Your Majesty, you are too polite. This is what I should do." Su Peisheng said respectfully.

Afterwards, he ordered the eunuch to deliver the Yiningxiang to Concubine Hua.

Thinking about how much the emperor loved her, Concubine Hua was so proud that her mouth was almost stretched to the sky. Songzhi stepped forward, took the spice box handed to her by the eunuch, and placed it in front of Concubine Hua.

Concubine Hua opened the box, and inside was an exquisite porcelain bottle inlaid with gems. She opened the lid of the porcelain bottle, and a refreshing fragrance rushed into her nose. She liked this scent very much.

Hua Fei smiled and replied, "Thank you, Eunuch Su, for bringing me the spices. Please thank the Emperor for me and tell him that I like them very much. Please come visit me more often when you are free."

"Your Majesty, you are too polite. I will definitely convey your words to the Emperor." Su Peisheng replied with a smile.

Hua Fei glanced at Song Zhi and said, "Song Zhi, bring some reward money."

Songzhi put down the spice box in her hand and immediately went to get the bag of silver and money.

Concubine Hua reached out and took the bag of silver and money, and personally grabbed a handful and gave it to Su Peisheng.
