In the Yangxin Palace, Concubine Hua was serving the Emperor his meal. When she saw Zhen Huan coming in, she glanced at her with a droopy face and didn't pay much attention to her.

"Your Majesty did not sleep last night. In a little while, the two imperial doctors Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen will come to report to you. It is better for Your Majesty to take a rest for a while. Once you have enough rest, you can handle the affairs of the court."

Zhen Huan put down her bowl and chopsticks, picked up the handkerchief and handed it to the emperor, her movements becoming more attentive.

The emperor understood what she meant. "Hahaha, Concubine Hua has become more sensible and considerate now. But I still have a lot of things to do today. You go back to the palace first. I will visit you another day."

Concubine Hua said in a sour tone, "Your Majesty, did you send me away because Concubine Wan came? I don't agree."

The emperor took her soft hand and placed it in his own palm and patted it.

"You're saying these sour words again. Well, you've been taking care of me all morning, Songzhi, help your young mistress go back and have a good rest."

Concubine Hua was very resentful of Zhen Huan in her heart, but she couldn't disobey the emperor's wishes, so she had to bow and leave. When she pushed out, she deliberately glanced at the food box in Huanbi's hand and said lightly:

"The time that Wan Guiren has been serving the emperor is short, and she doesn't understand the emperor's habits. The emperor usually doesn't eat much for breakfast, and he has just eaten the food I sent him. I'm afraid you won't be able to use these."

After saying that, the emperor frowned and glanced at her, so she had to shut up and leave.

Zhen Huan ordered Huanbi to put down the food box and sent her out.

She walked around the desk and came behind the emperor, took out a box of something and smeared some on the emperor's temples, then rubbed her palms together, rubbed them warm and gently pressed them on the emperor's temples, saying:

"I am not as careful and considerate as the Empress Hua. Since the Emperor is unwilling to rest, and the left and right have to deal with state affairs, it is better to be more sober so as to sort out all those complicated things."

The emperor held her hand and placed it on his chest, with a faint smile mixed with a hint of fatigue.

"The one who knows me best is Huan Huan. The smell of this menthol oil really makes me feel refreshed."

Zhen Huan's eyes were filled with heartache, "Your Majesty, I heard that there is an epidemic in the palace. Your Majesty should try to go out less these days. If someone reports something important, they should stay away. By the way, has Your Majesty arranged for the imperial physician to accompany you?"

As she spoke, she looked around. Apart from her and the emperor, there was no one else in the palace.

At this time, Eunuch Su came in and reported that Prince Guo had some information about the situation outside the palace to report to the emperor, and Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen were also waiting outside.

Upon hearing this, Zhen Huan left the Palace of Tranquil Longevity on her own accord.

Outside the palace, Prince Guo did not expect to see Huanbi when he entered the palace today. He was a little surprised. Just after he said a few words, he saw Concubine Wan coming out.

"Mr. Wan is well!"

"Good luck to the prince!" The two of them bowed their heads slightly and greeted each other.

Huanbi nodded to the prince and left with Zhen Huan. When she left, she looked back at the prince with a slightly shy look on her face.

"You just saw the prince and performed the usual courtesy. It seemed very familiar?" Zhen Huan noticed Huanbi's expression and the slightly raised corners of her mouth, and asked her tentatively.

Huanbi nodded and said, "I have met the prince a few times, but I am not familiar with him. I have already performed the highest courtesy when the young lady was in the palace just now. I will be more careful when I am outside in the future, and will not do things that will make people talk about me behind my back."

Zhen Huan was amused by her serious look and poked her nose with her finger, "Prince Guo is a romantic and suave man. If you have feelings for him, you must be careful to distinguish him."

Huanbi lowered her head and walked forward, her expression somewhat gloomy, "I know that I am of humble origin, and I dare not have extravagant dreams about being with you, my lord."

Zhen Huan shook her head, "That's not what I'm talking about. No matter what your social status is, if you two are truly in love, I don't think he would care about these things. If he really cares, it only proves that he is not a good person. You have to think these things through yourself."

Huanbi nodded with emotion. She thought the young lady would persuade her to give up this idea, but she didn't expect that she would actually support her and follow her heart.

"This slave will remember it."

Now Huanbi is fully aware of Prince Guo's feelings for her, but she is afraid. She is afraid that the prince is just thinking that she is new to him temporarily, and she is also afraid that the prince will develop feelings for the young lady as they spend more time together in the future. After all, in terms of beauty, talent, and sentiment, the young lady is superior to her.

In her previous life, she was so humble that she was willing to be a slave to the young lady and the prince to fulfill their friendship. After the young lady and the prince became impossible, she took the opportunity to marry the prince.

But she will not be so stupid in this life. The young master dotes on her, so she will naturally treat the young master well. However, the love between men and women has always been selfish, and she cannot share it even with her own eldest sister.

If the prince can love her wholeheartedly, she will accept his feelings. If not, she would rather not have this relationship.

Zhen Huan looked at the girl who was thinking seriously and felt that she was more dignified and generous than before. In the past, she always thought that she was a little girl who only knew how to wear red and green, but now she had developed some charm.

She could not imagine what Huanbi was thinking at the moment.

The two were talking and soon they arrived at Suiyuxuan. As soon as they entered the house, Xiao Yunzi rushed in.

Jing Xi stood in front of Zhen Huan and asked, "What happened? Why are you so irritable?"

Xiao Yunzi cleared his throat and quickly admitted his fault, "It was I who offended you, young master. Please forgive me, young master. I have something important to report."

Zhen Huan straightened up, "What's the matter?"

Xiao Yunzi glanced at Huanbi, Jinxi, and Liuzhu from left to right, and said cautiously, "Unfortunately, Concubine Shen has been infected with the epidemic."

"What? Are you telling the truth?"

Xiao Yunzi nodded, "It's absolutely true, my lady, please think of a way to save Concubine Shen!"

Zhen Huan was so frightened that her legs were shaking. Mei Jie had never left the palace for the past few months, how could she have been infected with the epidemic? What should she do now?

She clenched her fists anxiously and murmured:

"The Imperial Hospital has not yet developed a prescription to treat the epidemic, and the Emperor has not yet clearly lifted my sister's house arrest. What should I do?"

Huanbi knew clearly that it was Lord Wen who developed the prescription in her previous life, and he developed it when he was taking care of Sister Mei.

She held the young lady's arm and patted her gently a few times to calm her down.

"My lady, why don't I go to the Imperial Hospital and ask Dr. Wen to come over? Dr. Wen is very skilled in medicine and may be able to develop a prescription to treat the epidemic."

Zhen Huan thought sideways, "Yes, now those who participate in the development of prescriptions are all high-ranking imperial doctors. Lord Wen has outstanding medical skills but is not respected in the Imperial Hospital. With his medical skills, maybe he can really develop a prescription.

Hurry, go to the Imperial Hospital and tell them that I want them to help me take care of Sister Mei."

Huanbi got the order and ran out in a hurry. The rest of the people in the room were worried. Even the chief judge of the Imperial Medical Bureau, Zhang Mi, and the Jiang brothers were helpless. Doctor Wen was unknown, so it might be difficult.

At this point, we can only fight hard.
