After Prince Guo was reborn, Zhen Huan became invincible

After hearing what Prince Guo said, the emperor felt a little flustered.

"Call the Imperial Observatory to see you." The emperor was majestic without even getting angry.

Xiao Xiazi immediately took the order and reported to the Imperial Observatory.

Yikun Palace

At the invitation of Concubine Hua, Zhen Huan brought Liuzhu to Yikun Palace.

"Greetings to Her Majesty the Concubine Hua." Zhen Huan bowed to the Concubine Hua.

"No need to formalities, just sit down. This is the first time that Concubine Wan has come to my Yiku Palace since she entered the palace." Concubine Hua sat at the top and said as if declaring her sovereignty.

"Empress Hua's Yiku Palace is truly the most luxurious palace in this palace! When I saw it today, I was truly eye-opening. The magnificent palace, the intricately carved railings, and especially the furnishings in the palace, are so dazzling that it makes one dazzled. Looking at these precious treasures, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart that Empress Hua is truly favored by the Emperor! I am really envious." Zhen Huan said flatteringly.

When Concubine Hua heard Zhen Huan's compliments, she felt even more proud. The purpose of her inviting Zhen Huan here today was to let Zhen Huan see how she was favored by the Emperor and that she was able to live in the Yikun Palace.

"Your Highness Wan is both talented and beautiful, so the Emperor will naturally favor you. However, my position in the Emperor's heart is unshakable. You just need to do your duty." Hua Fei said confidently, with disdain in her eyes. She wanted to let Zhen Huan know that she was not to be trifled with.

Zhen Huan smelled a peculiar fragrance as soon as she entered the Yiku Palace. She sniffed gently and it seemed that there was a mixed smell that made her feel uncomfortable, but she didn't know what caused it.

"Okay, you go back first." Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Concubine Hua wanted Zhen Huan to leave quickly so that out of sight, out of mind.

After Zhen Huan left, Concubine Li and Noble Lady Cao walked out from the side hall of Yikun Palace.

"What do you think of this Concubine Wan? How should I get rid of her?" Concubine Hua said with a hint of ruthlessness in her tone.

Her beautiful and sharp eyes swept across the two of them, making people feel fearful.

Concubine Li and Noble Lady Cao both remained silent, and no one dared to answer this question easily.

Hua Fei thought to herself: This Wan Guiren is now favored by the emperor and has the support of the queen. It is not easy to eliminate her. But if she is not eliminated, she will definitely become a big rival in the harem in the future.

While Concubine Hua was thinking, Concubine Cao beside her spoke cautiously: "Your Majesty, in my opinion, we can make a long-term plan..."

Hua Fei interrupted her abruptly: "Let's take a long-term view? If we wait any longer, I'm afraid she will take advantage of me!"

Concubine Cao was so frightened that she quickly lowered her head and dared not say anything more.

Hua Fei frowned and fell into deep thought...

Concubine Hua doesn't care about Zhen Huan's beauty, but she is extremely intelligent and looks very similar to the late Queen Chun Yuan, which forces Concubine Hua to rack her brains to find a way to get rid of her as soon as possible.

"I do have a plan. Concubine Wan is currently favored by the Emperor, and Yuguan was banished to the cold palace because of Concubine Wan's favor. She even dared to disrespect the Empress before. We might as well take advantage of her resentment towards Concubine Wan and use her to get rid of Concubine Wan."

Concubine Cao looked sharp and offered advice to Concubine Hua.

Concubine Cao is good at strategy and is smart and intelligent. Although her family has declined, she can still live safely in the palace by relying on her status as the mother of Princess Wen Yi and the power of Concubine Hua.

"I heard that the eunuch beside you, Lipin, once served in the palace of Concubine Wan. I'll leave this matter to you." Concubine Hua said slowly to Lipin, the smile on her lips becoming more and more intense.

Gyeongin Palace

The queen was secretly pleased with herself as she moved the brush in her hand across the rice paper like flowing clouds and water; every stroke seemed exceptionally smooth and natural.

Her mood seemed to become cheerful as the pen tip danced, and the depression and worries that had accumulated in her heart seemed to disappear at this moment.

"The beautiful calligraphy your Majesty has written today is so beautiful that it looks like flying dragons and dancing phoenixes, and the strokes are as smooth as dragons and snakes!" Jianqiu, who was grinding ink for the queen, couldn't help but exclaimed.

The queen smiled slightly, stopped writing, and looked at the work she had just completed with satisfaction.

Then she put the brush on the pen holder and replied softly, "This Wan Guiren has only just gained the emperor's favor, but she has already won the emperor's favor. From what we have seen today, the Hua Fei will definitely be unable to restrain her temper and take action. This is very good, and I don't have to do anything."

There was a glimmer of cunning and expectation in the queen's eyes.

She knew very well that the fighting in the harem would never end, but she didn't care about it.

For her, being able to consolidate her position and achieve the final victory in this game of power is the most important thing. And the current situation is developing in the direction she expected, how can she not feel relieved?

Yangxindian

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Observatory is waiting outside the door." Xiao Xiazi stepped forward to report.

"Call him in." The emperor couldn't wait to hear the Imperial Observatory's opinion.

"The official historian of the Imperial Observatory pays respect to His Majesty." The Imperial Observatory saluted to the emperor as soon as he entered the door.

"Excuse me, let me ask you, what are the recent celestial phenomena like?" the emperor asked in a cold voice.

"Your Majesty, the Purple Star in the sky has been jumping recently, and a blood moon appeared briefly at night. It just so happens that the emperor's dragon body is not feeling well, and a person who is pregnant with a dragon child is needed to go to the Precious Lotus Temple to pray for the emperor." The Imperial Astronomical Observatory bowed his head and stated to the emperor.

"You are talking nonsense. There is no one in my harem who is pregnant with my child. It is useless to say anything. You can leave now." The emperor said angrily.

The official historian of the Imperial Observatory was shocked.

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty. Everything I said is true." Guo Jun gave the Imperial Observatory a silent look, and the Imperial Observatory immediately retreated.

The emperor picked up the water cup beside him and smashed it to the ground.

"My Royal Brother, please don't get angry. It will hurt your body. My Royal Brother is blessed by Heaven. What the Imperial Astronomical Observatory said may not make sense."

"You also come to complain to me. Although I have many concubines in my harem, few of them have children. It's really a headache." The emperor was unhappy.

Prince Guo knew that his plan was already halfway done, so he said, "Brother, I heard that there is a magical herb in the mountains called 'Ningshen Grass'. It is said that taking this herb can strengthen the body and prolong life. Why not send someone to find this herb and try its efficacy."

After hearing this, the emperor's eyes flashed with hope. "That's great. I have also heard that this grass is a rare treasure in this world. However, this 'Concentration Grass' grows in the deep mountains of an extremely cold place. It may not be easy to find."

Prince Guo quickly responded, "I am willing to personally lead people to search for her, and I will definitely live up to your trust."

The emperor nodded with satisfaction, "Then I'll have to trouble my Seventeenth Brother."

"Then I will set off immediately." Prince Guo said to the emperor and left the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.

The emperor sighed in his heart: "Among my brothers, only Old Seventeen is sincere to me."

After leaving the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, Prince Guo hurried out of the palace and came to a secret and quiet private residence.

The official historian of the Imperial Observatory had been waiting for a long time. When he saw Prince Guo coming, he immediately bowed and saluted: "Your subordinate greets Prince Guo!"

Prince Guo nodded with a smile and said, "No need to be polite. Today's matter is entirely due to your help. You must have explained it to the emperor according to the method I taught you, so that it could be so smooth. This is the Locking Heaven Stone that I promised to give you before."

The official historian of the Imperial Observatory took the Heaven-Locking Stone with tears of gratitude and held it carefully in his hand as if it were a treasure.

He knew that this Heaven-Locking Stone contained endless mysterious power and was a rare treasure in the world that all the people in the Imperial Observatory wanted to obtain.

Prince Guo looked at the excited look of the official historian of the Imperial Observatory, smiled slightly, patted him on the shoulder and said, "This stone was found by chance many years ago by me. Now I give it to you, which can be regarded as returning it to its destined owner. I have promised that the emperor will definitely reward you in the future. It is just around the corner."

The official historian of the Imperial Observatory knelt down to express his gratitude. The emperor was angry about his words today. If it weren't for the promise of Prince Guo to give him the Locking Heaven Stone, he would never have dared to take the risk. As for the emperor's reward, he didn't take it too seriously.

But since Prince Guo was able to find the Heaven-Locking Stone, he must be someone that no ordinary mortal can compare to.

The two talked for a while, and then Prince Guo left the private residence. His figure gradually disappeared in the distance, leaving the official historian of the Imperial Observatory alone with the Locking Heaven Stone. He was determined to follow Prince Guo well.

In the evening, Prince Guo, accompanied by his personal bodyguard A Jin and ten of his trusted guards, left the city and camped out that night in an inn outside the capital.

As soon as Prince Guo entered the inn, he told A Jin to say that he was asleep and not to let anyone know that he was going out at night.

Broken Yuxuan

At eight quarter past seven (7:15 p.m.), a tall woman suddenly appeared in Zhen Huan's room.

Ever since Prince Guo came down from the roof to meet Zhen Huan that night, Zhen Huan no longer allowed her maid to accompany her to bed every night, and no one was allowed to enter her room to serve her without her permission.

Because since then, Prince Guo would occasionally come to her bedroom at night to talk to her. She also learned from Prince Guo that the queen was hostile to everyone. The queen seemed tolerant and generous on the surface, and was the mother of the country, but in fact she did a lot of bad things behind her back.

"Huan'er, are you asleep?" said the tall, rough-looking woman.

Zhen Huan heard a familiar and magnetic voice and slowly opened her eyes.

What came into view was a woman dressed as a maid, and she looked quite ugly.
