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

After lunch, the concubines came to Yiku Palace as usual to listen to Concubine Hua's lecture. When Huanbi was about to ask for leave from Concubine Hua, she saw Zhou Ninghai and two eunuchs entering Suiyuxuan in a menacing manner.

Huanbi felt flustered and turned back.

Inside the room, Zhen Huan's complexion gradually recovered. She sat upright on the main seat in the main hall and glanced at the visitor indifferently.

Zhou Ning was seen shaking his head and muttering, "Lady Wan, all the ladies are here. Concubine Hua is waiting for you. Please go to Yikun Palace immediately."

Jin Xi took a half step forward, put her hands on her sides and said to Zhou Ninghai: "My young mistress is not feeling well today, so it is difficult for her to go to Yikun Palace. The maid Huanbi has already asked for leave from Concubine Hua. You will know when you return, Master."

Zhou Ninghai raised a very disdainful smile, his eyes full of contempt, "My lady, I am here to pick you up personally on the orders of Concubine Hua. If you don't go, I will be embarrassed! Besides, you know Concubine Hua's temper. If you go against her wishes, you will be punished!"

At this time, Huanbi came in. She looked at the two eunuchs with ill intentions beside Zhou Ninghai, and stood sideways in front of Zhen Huan.

"Didn't I tell you to ask for leave? Why are you back?" A hint of doubt flashed across Zhen Huan's eyes, but for some reason, when she saw Huanbi coming back and standing in front of her like this, she felt a little more at ease.

Huanbi told her that she remembered something important, so she sent Xiao Yunzi away. She gently touched the young lady's shoulder and comforted her, "Xiao Yunzi's pace is faster than this servant's. I think she has already reached Yikun Palace by now. Don't worry, young lady."

Zhen Huan did not reply, but raised her hand to make a "please" gesture and said, "If you feel that it is difficult to report, please sit down and wait for a while. Xiao Yunzi will be back soon."

Then he said, "Pei'er, pour a cup of tea for Eunuch Zhou!"

Pei'er respectfully brought a cup of tea to Zhou Ninghai. Zhou Ninghai reached out to take it, but at the moment Pei'er let go, Zhou Ninghai suddenly pulled his hand back, and the scalding hot tea spilled on Pei'er's hands and clothes. Pei'er was scalded and couldn't help but screaming.

"hiss……"

Jinxi hurried forward to check and found that Pei'er's hands had blisters. She blew gently twice, pulled her up and said, "Go down and apply some medicine quickly."

Then she said to Zhou Ninghai, "The tea is too hot. I will go and pour you a new cup."

Zhou Ninghai looked at Pei'er's back as she was about to leave, raised his hand and smiled, "Wait! Lady Wan, I was ordered by Concubine Hua to invite you over. Not only did you not give our Concubine face, you also ordered the maid to scald me with tea. Are you dissatisfied with our Concubine?"

Liu Zhu was so angry that her face was puffed up. She could not hold it back any longer and pointed at Zhou Ninghai and asked, "When did our young lady order the maid to burn you? Eunuch Zhou, even if you are the concubine Hua's man, you have to have evidence when you speak."

Zhou Ninghai raised his eyebrows proudly, "Lady Wan, if our queen knew about what happened to the maid just now, her life would be in danger. If the young lady is willing to go to Yikun Palace today, I have completed my mission, and the matter just now can be put aside. The queen should know what to do."

At this time, Xiao Yunzi also came back. He didn't look very happy, and it seemed that he had been scolded by Concubine Hua.

Huanbi asked anxiously, "What did Concubine Hua say?"

Xiao Yunzi stood half-bent in front of Zhen Huan, "Reporting to my lady, Concubine Hua insisted that my lady go to Yikun Palace."

Huanbi stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Yunzi and asked again: "Have you told Concubine Hua that the young lady is not feeling well, and the imperial physician said that she needs to rest well."

Xiao Yunzi nodded. Due to Zhou Ninghai's presence, he did not dare to complain about his dissatisfaction with Concubine Hua. "I told her everything, but Concubine Hua didn't care about it. She just said that you must go there today no matter what."

Huanbi looked at Zhou Ninghai's smug look and was so angry that she wanted to slap him twice. She thought for a moment and said, "My lady, the emperor said before he left the palace that if you are not feeling well, you should stay in Suiyuxuan and don't have to go anywhere else."

Zhen Huan looked into Zhou Ninghai's eyes and said, "Empress Hua has always loved the Emperor, so I'm sure she won't go against His Majesty's wishes! Please go back, eunuch. I'll apologize to Her Majesty when I'm well again in a few days. If you want to be punished, I'll take full responsibility."

Although Zhou Ninghai was unhappy when he heard this, he did not dare to disobey the emperor's wishes in person. He had to leave awkwardly and go back to ask Concubine Hua for advice before making any plans.

After Zhou Ninghai left, Huanbi and Liuzhu each brought a cup of warm tea and the other fanned gently with a cattail leaf fan, bringing a cool breeze to the young lady. Jinxi also ordered people to open all the windows to dispel the foul smell.

Jin Xi sighed, her eyes dark, "Finally she left. When there is no tiger in the mountain, the monkey becomes king. This Hua Fei is clearly going to take advantage of the absence of the emperor and empress to attack you. My lady, no matter what Hua Fei's people say these days, you can't go to Yikun Palace."

Zhen Huan sipped her tea in silence; the confrontation just now made her feel a little weak.

Huanbi looked at the door and had a bad feeling in her heart. She always felt that Concubine Hua would not give up today.

Today, Prince Guo will go to the palace to see the Queen Mother. Yes, he will ask the Queen Mother to protect the young lady. Although the Queen Mother does not want to get involved in trivial matters in the harem, she has always valued the royal heir. Moreover, the Queen Mother knows what is in the Yikun Palace. At least she can protect the young lady until the Emperor returns to the palace.

Huanbi put down her fan and said, "I will be out for a while. If someone comes later, you must protect the young lady. You must not let her go to Yikun Palace under any circumstances."

Liu Zhu didn't understand what Huan Bi was going to do, so she asked, "Where are you going?"

Zhen Huan and Jin Xi also looked at her at the same time.

Huanbi thought about it and decided to tell them, "I want to go to Shoukang Palace to beg the Queen Mother. Apart from other things, for the sake of the fetus in your belly, the Queen Mother will not let you suffer for nothing."

Zhen Huan felt a glimmer of hope, but she was also a little worried. "It would be bad if the Queen Mother was alarmed by this matter. Besides, the entrance to Shoukang Palace is strictly guarded. Can you get in?"

As she spoke, she asked Jinxi to give her badge to Huanbi.

Huanbi took a deep breath and said, "I want to see the Queen Mother no matter what. Please be patient, my lady."

Seeing this, everyone had no choice but to let her go. Now they had no choice but to give it a try.

Huanbi ran out from Suiyuxuan under the scorching sun. She was worried that Concubine Hua would send someone to take the young lady away again, so she walked quickly.

Huanbi ran so hard that the velvet flowers on her head fell off, and her forehead and neck were covered with sweat. The long street was paved with bricks, and over time, some places were inevitably uneven. She fell two or three times, but still stood up and ran forward.

As she ran, she thought that if she arrived earlier, the young lady would suffer less. In the past, she always felt that the palace was not big enough. Today, Huanbi only hoped to be closer to Shoukang Palace, closer and closer, because the young lady and the baby in her belly would be entrusted to her shoulders.
