Legend of Zhen Huan: Zhen Huan is reborn

048 Twin Golden Partridges

(Yikun Palace)

The Yikun Palace was brightly lit at this moment, with palace lanterns hanging high, illuminating the palace like daylight.

Compared with the Sui Yu Xuan where Zhen Huan and An Lingrong were, the brightness here was a world of difference.

Concubine Hua was sitting on the couch in the inner room, wearing a crimson Manchu dress. The bright color complemented her temperament, making her look like a delicate and alluring flower, blooming stunningly.

She sat there, and her whole body seemed to exude an indescribable charm that made people unable to look away.

Concubine Hua snuggled intimately beside Yinzhen. When she saw Zhen Huan and Ling Rong come in together, she was a little surprised at first, and then with a hint of pride.

Zhen Huan and An Lingrong bowed respectfully and said in unison, "Good luck to Her Majesty Hua Fei."

"Huanhuan, it's late at night and the frost is thick, why are you here too?" Yinzhen noticed Zhenhuan's arrival. He was stunned for a moment, a little unhappy on his face, and turned to Hua Fei and said, "Shilan, I said it's hard to walk late at night, don't let An Changzai come to sing, not to mention she is pregnant, but you insisted on listening, and ended up mobilizing a large number of people and alarming them."

Zhen Huan listened to Yinzhen's helpless tone. Although she understood his difficulties, she still felt uncomfortable.

She was well aware of Concubine Hua's arrogance and Yinzhen's helplessness, but she couldn't help feeling a little unfair when she saw that An Lingrong was forced to come because she was pregnant.

However, she also knew that this was not the time to lose her temper, and could only suppress her dissatisfaction.

Zhen Huan responded gently, "It is because the night is deep and the frost is thick, and it is difficult for Sister Lingrong to walk alone, so I came here specially to accompany her and make sure she is safe."

An Lingrong continued, "Sister, you are a great zither player. I am afraid that my singing voice is not good enough to entertain you, so I specially invited you to come here with me. I hope that our music can bring some joy to the Emperor."

After hearing this, Concubine Hua smiled and said, "The music matches the music, this is a very good idea, it's amazing that Concubine Wan is willing to come and help the emperor."

Then he looked at Yinzhen lovingly and continued, "Tonight the flowers are in full bloom and the moon is full. It is a beautiful night. An Changzai, please sing a song of love to match this beautiful night."

Yinzhen nodded slightly, his eyes moving between Zhen Huan and An Lingrong, with a hint of complex emotions flashing in his eyes.

He knew that what happened tonight was just Hua Fei's willful behavior, but since it had come to this, he had no choice but to follow her wishes.

An Lingrong responded and then sang: "The overlapping hills are shining with golden light, and the clouds in my hair are about to cover the snow on my cheeks.

Lazy to draw eyebrows, make up and freshen up late.

……

A new embroidered silk blouse with two golden partridges.

......"

Lingrong's singing became better and better, and her voice became smoother.

Zhen Huan gently stroked the strings of the zither, and the melodious sound echoed in the Yikun Palace.

Yinzhen's gaze frequently turned to Zhen Huan, and the trace of emotion in his eyes was fleeting, but was replaced by helplessness.

At the end of the song, An Lingrong's singing voice echoed in the night sky.

Concubine Hua smiled and commented: "The song is nice, but I don't hear any good feelings. An Chang is here, aren't you just trying to please the emperor and me?"

Ling Rong blushed and quickly stood up to apologize, "To answer your Majesty, although this song does not directly describe the love between a man and a woman, every word and sentence describes the joy of the woman after the two hearts know each other, and the 'pair of golden partridges' in the lyrics also symbolizes a pair of twins with deep love."

However, Concubine Hua did not seem satisfied with this explanation. She deliberately said, "But Concubine An, although your singing voice is graceful, I cannot hear any joy in it."

Ling Rong had no choice but to lower her head and said, "Then... I will change another song."

Then, An Lingrong sang another song, and her singing became even more melodious and moving, but Concubine Hua was still not satisfied. She seemed to be deliberately making things difficult for An Lingrong so that she could not leave the stage.

Zhen Huan watched from the side and couldn't help but worry for An Lingrong.

Yinzhen finally couldn't help interrupting Hua Fei's harassment. He sighed and said, "Okay, okay, I've sung it so many times. No matter how good the song is, I'm tired of it."

There was a hint of impatience in his words, and he was obviously displeased with Hua Fei's provocation.

When Concubine Hua saw Yinzhen speaking, her tone softened a little, but she still insisted: "Your Majesty, don't you think An Changzai's singing is getting more fluent and her voice is becoming more emotional?"

She turned her head slightly, glanced at An Lingrong, and continued, "An Changzai's love for each other in the song is always a little lacking, is it because she saw that I and the emperor were both unhappy that she sang it badly?"

Seeing this, Zhen Huan knew that she had to help An Lingrong out, so she said, "Your Majesty, An Lingrong is pregnant and caught a cold this morning, so her throat is a little uncomfortable."

Hua Fei didn't take it seriously and sneered, "What a coincidence! A few days ago, I remembered An Changzai singing for the emperor all night long. Her voice was fine at that time. Why didn't she say she was pregnant and feeling unwell?"

Zhen Huan frowned slightly and said firmly, "Your Majesty, An Changzai is indeed pregnant and it is also true that she is feeling unwell."

Concubine Hua didn't take it seriously. She turned to Songzhi and ordered, "Songzhi, go and bring a glass of rose wine to An Changzai to drive away the cold. Then continue singing."

Upon hearing this, Ling Rong hastily declined, "Your Majesty, I am pregnant and it is really not appropriate for me to drink."

Hua Fei's face darkened and she spoke sternly, "You can't sing the song, and you can't drink the wine. After all, it was the emperor who summoned you here. It's fine if you don't take me seriously, but the emperor..."

Yinzhen's face darkened at this moment. He interrupted Hua Fei and said, "Since An Changzai is pregnant, don't drink."

When Concubine Hua saw Yinzhen defending An Lingrong again, she was dissatisfied, but she didn't dare to say anything. She could only say coquettishly, "Your Majesty~"

Zhen Huan cleverly interrupted, "Your Majesty and Majesty, the harmony of music and the understanding of hearts is of course the most elegant music, but the harmony of lyrics and the understanding of hearts also have their own beauty. I dare to give it a try?"

After hearing this, Yinzhen's heart moved, and he quickly followed Zhen Huan's words and said, "Okay, Huan Huan, I also want to listen to your piano lyrics."

Zhen Huan gently plucked the strings of the zither and began to sing slowly: "The thin clouds are playing tricks, the flying stars are conveying hatred, and the Milky Way is far away and dark.

As soon as Jinfeng Yulu met, they won but countless on earth.

The tenderness is like water, and the good times are like dreams.

If the love lasts for a long time, how can it last day and night? "

Her voice was gentle and melodious, as if carrying a hint of sorrow and expectation, and full of persistence and determination in love.

Against the backdrop of the piano, her singing is even more touching, making people involuntarily immersed in it.

Zhen Huan and Yinzhen looked at each other, and it seemed that at this moment, their minds were connected and their affection for each other became even deeper.

The eye contact between them made Concubine Hua feel something was wrong.

Although Concubine Hua was dissatisfied, she could not get angry and could only say, "Concubine Wan is indeed the top scholar in the harem, with outstanding talent. Okay, Your Majesty and I are tired, Suxi, send them out properly."

After hearing what Concubine Hua said, Zhen Huan and An Lingrong felt relieved, bowed quickly, and took their leave respectfully.

Under Suxi's guidance, the two slowly walked out of Yikun Palace.

-

After the two men left, Concubine Hua seemed to have something else to say, but Yinzhen stood up and said in a calm tone that left no room for doubt, "It's late at night, and I'm tired, Concubine Hua, you should also go to bed early."

As soon as he finished speaking, he walked calmly towards the bedroom.

Seeing this, Concubine Hua realized that it was useless to say more, so she put away her thoughts, smiled slightly, and responded obediently: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Afterwards, she followed Yinzhen closely, and the two of them walked into the bedroom together.
