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

After a while, the emperor and the empress dowager came. They both had serious expressions and worry between their brows.

The Queen ordered someone to bring a few cups of tea and said, "The Queen Mother has not been in good health. It is my fault that you are worrying about these things today."

The Queen Mother looked at her with dismay, "What on earth is going on? The Queen invited you to appreciate the flowers, but something like this happened."

The emperor shook the Buddhist beads in his hand and signaled Su Peisheng to move the chair next to the empress dowager. "Madam, please sit down first. We will make a decision after the imperial physician examines you."

Everyone sat in the main hall of the Yanx Palace. Inside the room, the imperial physician was quietly taking the patient's pulse.

The emperor was a little anxious and pointed at Su Peisheng, "Go ask the imperial physician, what's going on?"

After a while, two imperial doctors came out, kneeling in front of the emperor. Zhang Mi spoke first, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager, and the Empress, Concubine Xia's baby is too old, and she fell, so she can't keep the baby. If the labor is not induced in time, I'm afraid the mother's life will be in danger."

"What about Noble Lady Fucha?" the Queen asked.

Another imperial physician lowered his head and said, "The baby in Noble Lady Fucha's belly is still young and in danger. I am incompetent and failed to save it."

After listening to the two doctors' words, the emperor was silent for a long time. Suddenly, he stood up and threw the beads to the ground with force. For a moment, the Buddhist beads rolled all over the ground.

"Why, both of my children are gone at the same time, who is it, who wants to harm my children?"

Except for the Empress Dowager, everyone in the room knelt on the ground to comfort the Emperor.

Concubine Hua was so frightened that she dared not speak. She hid behind and took a peek. The Queen and Su Peisheng caught her gaze.

The Queen sighed and said, "It was my fault for not thinking carefully. Thinking that the flowers in Jingren Palace were in full bloom, I invited the concubines from the six palaces to enjoy the flowers together. I didn't expect that Concubine Xia had an argument with Concubine Hua and had an argument with Noble Lady Fucha. This led to the loss of the child. Please punish me, Madam and the Emperor."

The Queen Mother glanced at her and said calmly, "The Queen has good intentions. It is wrong for not thinking ahead. It is just that you cannot control the affairs of others. This matter is not mainly your fault."

After the Queen Mother finished speaking, she looked towards the Emperor, waiting for his decision.

The emperor narrowed his eyes and looked at Hua Fei who was hiding behind someone. He waved his hand, and Hua Fei stood up and walked to the emperor's feet.

"Pa!" A palm fell, not only Concubine Hua was stunned, but everyone else was also shocked.

"Your Majesty, I did make a mistake, but Concubine Xia took advantage of her pregnancy to commit crimes and speak rudely. I never intended to harm the baby in her belly, I just wanted to teach her a lesson. As for the loss of Concubine Fucha's child, it has nothing to do with me. Please understand, Your Majesty!"

Concubine Hua knelt on the ground, raised her head and looked at the emperor with tears in her eyes.

The emperor was so angry that he closed his eyes. In the East and West Palaces, Concubine Xia and Noble Lady Fucha cried and made a fuss when they learned that their children were gone. Their cries cut through the sky and startled the birds in the trees.

The emperor stiffened his neck and said, "Queen, you must tell me everything from beginning to end. Don't hide anything or be biased in the slightest."

The Queen knelt on the ground and recounted the entire incident in Jingren Palace from beginning to end. When she mentioned that Xia Dongchun deliberately caused trouble for An Lingrong and Zhen Huan, the Emperor and the Queen Mother looked at her at the same time. Zhen Huan was so scared that she quickly lowered her head and dared not look at them.

But today's events had nothing to do with her anyway. Zhen Huan held Huanbi's hand, her palms slightly sweaty. At this moment, she was secretly glad that Huanbi noticed that Xia Dongchun's face was not right, and reminded her and Lingrong to stand far away. If she was next to Xia Dongchun when the incident happened, she might not be implicated in today's events.

"Perhaps Concubine Xia was overthinking during her pregnancy and her mood was unstable. Thanks to Concubine Wan's generosity, she didn't bother with her. Later, she quarreled with Concubine Hua. Concubine Hua has always been strong-willed and couldn't help but let the servants slap Concubine Xia in the face. Perhaps Concubine Xia felt that she had lost face in front of the concubines, so she was not too polite when speaking to Concubine Fucha."

The queen spoke word by word, and it sounded fair to the point.

After the Queen finished speaking, she looked at the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother looked at the Emperor's face and reprimanded him, "Hua Fei, you are also an old man in the palace. You should know what to do and what not to do.

"Mrs. Xia is young and impatient. She offended you and deserved to be punished, but you should have known better. Now she is pregnant, and pregnant women are bound to lose control of their emotions. Even if she offended you verbally, you should have just warned her verbally. How could you hit her?"

The Queen Mother sighed, looking helpless.

Huanbi watched these people from the side and thought it was ridiculous.

If what happened today happened to someone else, the empress dowager would definitely punish her severely. Even if she spared that person's life, she would not let her stay in the harem. It was only because it was Concubine Hua who did it, and Nian Gengyao had made great contributions in quelling the Qinghai rebellion. The empress dowager probably knew that Nian Gengyao would return to Beijing in a few days, so she restrained herself.

Hua Fei explained with tears in her eyes: "The Queen Mother taught me that I made such a big mistake because I was anxious at the moment. I hope the Queen Mother and the Emperor will not let my carelessness make you sick."

"A momentary oversight? Concubine Hua, I see that you have no intention of repenting. The Empress Dowager has warned you in that way, but you actually think that you caused the death of my two children. Is such a big mistake a momentary oversight, an unintentional mistake?

You also had a child. When you were pregnant, the servants took care of you carefully. Have you forgotten?"

Hearing this, Concubine Hua cried even louder and said, "It is precisely because I have also lost a child that I just want to teach Concubine Xia a lesson today. I still understand the principle of not doing to others what you do not want others to do to you. If Concubine Xia had not provoked me again and again, I would not have done what I did today."

The emperor was so angry that he was speechless. He didn't expect that Concubine Hua was still thinking of blaming others for the mistake at this moment.

At this moment, Zhen Huan suddenly felt nauseous for some reason, "Ugh... Ugh..."

Huanbi noticed something was wrong, patted Zhen Huan's back and asked, "My lady, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Everyone looked over following Huanbi's voice. Zhen Huan felt a little embarrassed for a moment, and shook her head and said, "She must have been standing outside for too long. I'm not in the way."

The queen stepped forward to show her concern, "But were you frightened by what happened just now? Why not ask the imperial physician to take a look?"

Zhen Huan hurriedly shook her head to refuse. Such a big thing happened today, and she was just feeling a little unwell. She would go to Wen Shichu to check his pulse after returning to the palace. She didn't want everyone to focus on her and become the target of public criticism.

The emperor gradually calmed down and raised his hand to let Zhang Mi go over. "Lady Wan has always been in a delicate state. Go and take a look."

Zhang Mi took out a silk handkerchief and placed it on Zhen Huan's wrist, then quietly felt her pulse.
