After Prince Guo was reborn, Zhen Huan became invincible
Chapter 165: Concubine Xi's Auspicious Clothes Were Damaged
"But Suiyuxuan is remote, how can it be compared with Chuxiu Palace?" Zhen Huan was very curious whether this noble lady Qi was mentally ill or mentally ill? If you come to this remote Suiyuxuan, don't regret it later.
Concubine Qi said in a teasing tone, "Sister, don't blame me for acting on my own. I have no one to rely on in the palace, and the sisters in Chuxiu Palace are not easy to get along with. I just want to live in peace, so I want to come and keep you company."
However, Concubine Qi had no idea that Zhen Huan would be moving to Yongshou Palace in a few days. She only thought that Zhen Huan looked very similar to the late Queen Chun Yuan, which was why the Emperor doted on her and even gave birth to twins for him. Now that she was promoted from Concubine Wan to Concubine Xi, she was naturally even more favored by the Emperor.
As long as he lived close to Zhen Huan, he would naturally have the opportunity to meet the emperor.
With such a wishful thinking in mind, Concubine Qi asked the Emperor for the opportunity to move into Suiyuxuan.
She only told the emperor that Suiyuxuan was quiet and pleasant, and she wanted to move there. The emperor thought that Concubine Qi liked quietness, so he agreed immediately.
After listening to what Concubine Qi said, Zhen Huan finally understood that Concubine Qi didn't know that she was about to move to Yongshou Palace. She couldn't help feeling a little proud and amused.
But on the surface, Zhen Huan still responded enthusiastically: "Although Sui Yu Xuan is remote, it is the most peaceful and quiet place. I'm glad you like it, sister."
Seeing how easy it was for Zhen Huan to get along with, Concubine Qi said, "Thank you, sister!"
After greeting Zhen Huan, Concubine Qi brought her personal maid Jingtai to the east wing of Sui Yuxuan.
After Lady Qi entered the room, she looked around at the layout of the room. The two maids bowed and said, "My lady, everything is ready."
"Well, go down." said Concubine Qi.
"It's much smaller than Chuxiu Palace, but it's indeed a good place." Concubine Qi said, looking at the house in front of her.
Jingtai, Qi Guiren's personal maid, was somewhat puzzled by Qi Guiren's words and said, "My lady likes it, but I think this place is too small and far away. It takes a long way to get to the Emperor's Yangxin Palace. It's not as convenient as Chuxiu Palace."
Concubine Qi said with a smart look on her face: "Chuxiu Palace is convenient, but there are too many people and too many eyes. Although this Suiyuxuan is far away, as long as the emperor is thinking about it, there is nothing to be afraid of no matter how far it is."
Jingtai still didn't understand. "I was afraid that I would wrong the young lady. Before the young lady entered the palace, the master repeatedly warned her that she must make a name for herself in the palace."
Lady Qi said slowly, "It's important to stand out, but you can't be the first to stand out and be schemed against."
Lady Qi looked at Jingtai, who was still puzzled, and continued to explain: "It is well known that the emperor likes Concubine Xi. You will not suffer any loss if you follow Concubine Xi."
At this moment, Jingtai seemed to understand his master's plan. It turned out that the abacus beads hit Concubine Xi's head. He is really worthy of being my master.
Another week later
The day of Concubine Xi's enthronement ceremony and the full-moon banquet for Sixth Prince Hongzhou and Princess Lingxi has arrived.
There was a festive atmosphere in Sui Yuxuan. After the ceremony of conferring the title of Concubine Xi was over, Zhen Huan's things would be moved from Sui Yuxuan to Yongshou Palace.
On this day, the official who conferred titles brought the auspicious dress that Zhen Huan would wear during the conferring ceremony.
After the conferring official instructed Zhen Huan on the etiquette procedures, he put down her imperial concubine's dress and left.
Zhen Huan suddenly remembered that she had not yet given the gift to the conferring official, so she said to Liu Zhu, "Liu Zhu, go and see the conferring official off, and don't forget to give those gifts."
"Yes, my lady, I'll go right away." Liuzhu trotted away happily.
Cui Jinxi reminded with a smile on her face: "Your Majesty, after the canonization ceremony today, don't forget to go to the Queen's Palace to listen to the instructions, and thank the Emperor and the Queen!"
Zhen Huan smiled and replied, "The conferring officer has already mentioned this."
"Jinxi, bring me the wedding dress for me to change into."
"Okay." Cui Jinxi turned around and brought over a complete set of wedding clothes that were neatly placed on the table.
"Open it and have a look, my lady." Cui Jinxi said happily. Xiao Yunzi beside her hurriedly lent a hand and held one end of the wedding dress to prevent the clothes from falling to the ground and getting covered with dust.
As Cui Jinxi opened the wedding dress, she praised, "This dress is very suitable for the queen!"
At this time, Liuzhu had just returned from the door after seeing off the conferring official. She happened to see the ceremonial robes in their hands being unfolded. Liuzhu exclaimed, "Wow, the queen's ceremonial robes are so exquisite!"
Zhen Huan also carefully looked at the auspicious pattern embroidered with gold thread in front of her. The auspicious dress had exquisite embroidery and excellent fabric.
Because she was still a little unsure whether the things in the previous life that Prince Guo had told her a few days ago would happen today.
However, what she saw with her own eyes today was indeed almost identical to what the prince had said.
While looking through the clothes, Zhen Huan discovered a long scar on the wedding dress, as if it had been cut by a knife.
Cui Jinxi said at a loss: "Ah, this... this... what should I do?"
Liuzhu said with a worried look in her eyes: "This auspicious dress used for enthronement is like a gift from the emperor. How can it be damaged in the slightest? If it is discovered, it will be a crime of deceiving the emperor."
Zhen Huan looked calm and wanted to verify it, so she said to Liu Zhu, "Liu Zhu, where is Jiang, the chief steward of the Ministry of Internal Affairs?"
"I just delivered the gift and I'm still in the yard. I think I haven't left yet." Liuzhu replied.
"Ask him in." Zhen Huan ordered.
"Hey!" Liuzhu responded and ran out.
Cui Jinxi urged from the side: "Hurry up, hurry up."
A moment later, Manager Jiang ran in with Liuzhu.
"Manager Jiang, look." Zhen Huan showed Manager Jiang the long scar that looked like it was cut by a knife.
Chief Steward Jiang had a shocked expression on his face and knelt down on both knees, "I have failed to do my job well, please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"Manager Jiang, the auspicious dresses sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs were damaged. If we investigate, you will not be able to escape responsibility." There was a hint of majesty in Zhen Huan's words.
"I asked you to come here not because I want to punish you, but because I hope you can share my worries and see if there is any way to remedy the situation."
Chief Steward Jiang replied timidly, "To answer your Majesty, this auspicious dress was woven by several weavers using gold and silver threads, so there is only enough thread to weave this one. If it needs to be repaired, I'm afraid we have to reopen the warehouse now. Not to mention the fanfare, it will take at least three or two days to return it."
"Three or two days will definitely not be enough. Do you have any other way?" Zhen Huan continued to ask.
"Your Majesty, there is a way that may be able to save the situation." Butler Jiang continued.
"Tell me the truth quickly."
"Two days ago, the Queen's palace brought a piece of clothing to be mended. That piece of clothing is quite ceremonial. Although it doesn't look very similar to the one your Majesty is wearing, it should be a good replacement. Although the style of that piece of clothing is a bit old, I'm afraid it was something your Majesty wore before."
Hearing this, Zhen Huan thought, just as the prince said, the queen was deliberately setting a trap for her by first damaging her own wedding dress and then replacing it with another one.
