After Huanbi was reborn, she became the prince's favorite

The emperor pointed his finger and smiled, pretending to be mysterious, "It's about Huanbi! She's going to be happy!"

Zhen Huan was slightly startled, "Your Majesty means..."

"There is a man who has taken a fancy to Huanbi and asked me for permission to marry her. How come you, as her master, didn't notice it at all?" The emperor looked very proud of himself, as if he knew a secret that no one else knew.

Zhen Huan breathed a sigh of relief, "I don't know what kind of person likes Huanbi. Huanbi really never mentioned it to me."

"It's Prince Guo!" the emperor replied with a smile.

Seeing the emperor's expression, Zhen Huan felt relieved. If the emperor did not agree, he would not be so relaxed and keep it a secret while telling her about this matter.

She originally wanted to take the opportunity of returning to the palace to ask the emperor for an edict for Huanbi, but she didn't expect that the emperor would speak first, so the initiative was in their hands.

"I was so careless. I heard Huanbi mention Prince Guo several times and thought she was just saying it casually. I didn't expect this girl to have such deep thoughts. It was so easy for me to guess!"

"Yes! In this case, Yunli and Huanbi are really willing to be together. If I don't help this pair of beautiful women, wouldn't I be the sinner who broke up the couple?"

Zhen Huan was very happy. As long as the emperor agreed, everything else would not matter.

She lowered her head as if thinking, her eyelids drooping heavily.

The emperor didn't know what was wrong with her, so he asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Zhen Huan shook her head, "I just think that Huanbi is of low status, so it's natural that Prince Guo likes her and will not look down on her. But I'm worried that after Huanbi marries into the palace, the servants will talk about her. In serious cases, there are cases where the servants bully their masters.

Furthermore, if the prince marries a woman with a better family background and status in the future, won't Huanbi have no place to stay? In the eyes of others, Huanbi is just a maid, but I have been with her day and night for so many years that I have already regarded her as my own sister.

The Seventh Prince and the Third Princess were able to be born safely, thanks to Huanbi and Jinxi. Since last year, whenever I was sick, they stayed by my bedside, taking care of me night after night, and I had to make plans for them. "

The emperor remembered that the Longkodo case involved Huanbi's maternal family. When the matter was rehabilitated, Huanbi would be considered the granddaughter of a noble family. Although her status was not extremely noble, it was not that different from hers.

But the emperor has other things to deal with right now and cannot spare the time to deal with Longkodo.

"This is easy to handle. I am telling you this today. I am not in a hurry to let Yunli and Huanbi get married. Old Seventeen was injured last month, so I am afraid we will have to wait for some time. Let him prepare well. You still need a reliable person to take care of you. Huanbi is careful and considerate. After you return to the palace, I will arrange everything."

Zhen Huan looked at the man in front of her. Compared with before she left the palace, there was more tenderness in his eyes and less sharp and majestic gaze. She knew that her goal had been achieved.

"I would like to thank the emperor on behalf of Huanbi." Zhen Huan stood up and bowed slightly.

The emperor reached out to pull her, but Zhen Huan took half a step back.

The emperor knew that he had hurt her too badly in the past, and if he asked her to get close to him all of a sudden, she might not be able to do so, so he didn't care.

"Hanhuan, it was all my fault for what happened in the past. I misunderstood your thoughts and made you suffer here. Now, I know that you are a proud person. I have ordered people to make good preparations. When the astrological issue is over, I will take you back. I promise that you will still be my favorite concubine."

Zhen Huan raised her head, her eyes were gentle, and there was no trace of emotion in them. "Since I left the palace, I have long since let go of my status and position. However, I still want to thank Your Majesty for taking so much time to remind me of the time when I met Your Majesty in the Imperial Garden. Time flies, and so many years have passed."

The emperor's thoughts went back to a few years ago, when he hid his identity from Zhen Huan and enjoyed the flowers and the flute with her. He felt so relaxed!

After all, he was the one who let down Huanhuan, who was so beautiful and lively at that time. He secretly swore that from now on, he would never make her sad again.

"Hanhuan, I am busy with the affairs of the previous dynasty every day, and there are few concubines in the harem who are content. I hope you can come back to me and continue to be my most beloved woman."

When Zhen Huan heard this, she found it ridiculous. Everyone in the palace knew that the Emperor's favorite had always been Queen Chun Yuan.

Forget it. Her mind is no longer on how sincere the emperor is to her.

She stared at the emperor quietly and smiled, just like when they met in the imperial garden that year, "Your Majesty, just make the decision."

The emperor set the fifth day of the fifth month as the date for Concubine Xi to return to the palace, which happened to be the same day as the Dragon Boat Festival. Prince Guo, as the envoy for the enthronement, arrived at Penglai Island by boat early in the morning and waited.

In the room, Zhen Huan was dressing up.

Outside the house, Huanbi came over holding a cup of tea, "Yunli, wait a little longer, the young lady will need a while."

Prince Guo took the tea, his eyes lit up, a smile appeared in his eyes, his lips were tightly pursed, but he still couldn't hide his smile.

"Don't worry, let's hurry back to the palace at an auspicious time. I came here just to talk to you for a while. Once you return to the palace, it will be difficult to see you again." The prince became sad as he spoke.

Huanbi looked around and confirmed that no one was around before whispering, "My lady told me that the emperor has probably agreed to your wish, but he's not sure when it will happen."

"Really? My royal brother didn't tell me, Huanbi. I'm so happy to know this news! By the way, I also have good news to tell you." The prince put down his teacup and stood up straight.

The pink albizzia tree swayed above their heads, as red as clouds and like the blushing face of a young girl.

Huanbi stood on tiptoe, picked up a flower that had fallen on the prince's shoulder, and sniffed it. "What good news?"

"I don't know whether it was Duke Meng who persuaded Miss Meng, or whether Miss Meng's mind changed. I heard from Ah Jin that Miss Meng has already made an engagement with Minister Wang's eldest son. The marriage will take place around the Mid-Autumn Festival. This is good. My brother and the Queen Mother don't have to be embarrassed anymore, and I don't have to go against my brother's will."

Huanbi was a little surprised. She had originally worried that the emperor would issue an edict to let her and Meng Jingxian marry into the palace together, just like in her previous life. Now the stone blocking her way was finally removed.

At this time, Jingxi supported Zhen Huan out, and Huanbi hurried over to support the young lady.

The prince also stepped forward and bowed respectfully, "Your Highness respectfully welcomes Concubine Xi back to the palace!"

"Thank you, Prince Guo!" Zhen Huan smiled gently at him.
