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

Hua Fei looked at the emperor in disbelief, tears streaming down her face. She cried and said, "Your Majesty, do you want to hate me? I didn't mean to do that. I also have children. How could I have thought of killing someone else's child?"

After these words were spoken, the emperor seemed to lose his temper instantly, and his angry expression eased a little. He glanced at Zhen Huan and saw her leaning weakly against Huanbi, and asked:

“You didn’t mean it?

If it wasn't intentional, would you have brought the eunuchs to force Concubine Wan to go to Yikun Palace?

If it wasn't intentional, would you have brought the six concubines to cause a big fuss in Yuxuan?

The Queen Mother couldn't stand it anymore, and you still think it was an unintentional mistake?"

Hua Fei's crying became quieter and quieter. She looked at the Emperor with tearful eyes, feeling aggrieved and angry.

At this time, the Queen suddenly spoke. She shook her head at Zhen Huan distressedly, then looked at Concubine Hua and said with a look of regret and helplessness:

"Hua Fei, the Queen and I trusted you so much, yet you were so careless with the heir. Even if the Emperor wanted to forgive you, who could bear to see Concubine Wan like this?"

Huanbi and Zhen Huan were shocked by the Queen's words. Wasn't this going to create hatred between Zhen Huan and Concubine Hua?

The emperor gradually calmed down and warned the queen: "Hua Fei Nian, you ignored the fact that Wan Guiren was pregnant and tortured her. You have stripped her of her title and demoted her to Nian Fei."

Concubine Nian couldn't believe that these words came from the emperor's mouth. It was clear that the emperor's eyes and heart were full of her a few days ago, how could there be such a big change in the blink of an eye?

She cried and asked, "Your Majesty, I was careless at the time and it didn't cause any disaster. Will Your Majesty abandon your relationship with me because of this?"

The emperor stroked his forehead and shook his head, muttering, "An unintentional mistake? What an unintentional mistake!

The cage in Lady Wan's belly almost disappeared because of you. I think you are not arrogant, but reckless. Well, go back and think about the past! I don't want to see you again!"

Concubine Nian refused to give up and yelled at the emperor to prove that she did not mean it, but the emperor just waved his hand gently and asked Su Peisheng to send her away.

Eunuch Su accompanied her out of the Suiyu Pavilion. Seeing Concubine Hua's heartbroken expression, this was the first time he had seen it. After thinking for a while, he comforted her, "Madam, you should go back!"

Nianpin grabbed Su Peisheng's sleeve, then let go when she felt it was inappropriate. She leaned forward and asked, "Eunuch Su, is the emperor really angry?"

Su Peisheng nodded, pursed his lips and said: "The emperor values ​​his own offspring, so I should say something that I shouldn't say. The queen did act a little impulsively this time."

Nianpin asked him as if she had grasped a life-saving straw: "What should I do now?"

Su Peisheng didn't know what to do. In the past, no matter if Concubine Nian had an argument or disagreement with any other concubine, the emperor would always treat her with leniency. But this time, the emperor seemed to be really concerned about Concubine Wan, and he was at a loss for a moment.

Therefore, he did not dare to give any advice to Concubine Nian casually.

"Your Majesty, please go back. The fetus in Lady Wan's belly is safe now. As long as the child can be born safely, I believe the emperor will slowly forget about this matter."

Songzhi was also trying to persuade him, but her words were similar to those of Eunuch Su.

Nianpin turned her upper body around and looked at the gate of Suiyuxuan with mixed feelings, then finally walked away.

The emperor and the empress sat for a while. Zhang Tingyu and Longkodo came to report something. The emperor comforted Zhen Huan for a few words and then left.

Meizhuang was the happiest when the confinement in Suiyuxuan was lifted. She had been worried that Huan'er's body would not be able to cope with the pregnancy, and it would be unacceptable for her to be kept bored all day. Therefore, she came to Suiyuxuan two or three times a day in the past few days, either to get things or to chat, making the place very lively.

A few days later, the emperor set out with his concubines in a grand procession. In less than half a day, they arrived at the Old Summer Palace. The concubines still stayed in the same palaces they had lived in last year.

After chatting and talking with Huanbi these days, she has completely figured it out. Even if not for herself, she must live happily, for the baby in her belly and for the Zhen family.

After arriving at the Old Summer Palace, the emperor still had endless state affairs to deal with, and he had not summoned any of his concubines for several days.

That day, Concubine Nian got up early and was busy preparing breakfast in the kitchen.

Songzhi walked in and saw her standing in front of the stove, her clothes were dirty and her face was covered with dust. She cried out of heartache.

"Your Highness, you really don't have to do these things yourself. Just ignore them. It's still early, Your Highness, go and have a good rest!"

Nianpin picked up the spoon and tasted the soup in the pot.

"It tastes a bit bland. Your Majesty has lost his appetite after getting up so early. He can't eat something so bland. Add some more!"

After saying that, he walked to the table and placed the cakes and other items on the table himself.

Songzhi stepped forward and continued to persuade: "Your Majesty, let me do it, and Your Majesty will guide you from the side."

Nianpin pushed her away impatiently and said, "The emperor will come over to eat after dawn, and I will have to do it myself. Get out of the way."

Songzhi had become accustomed to the queen's attitude, and felt even more uncomfortable.

In the past, the Empress was the most proud and outspoken. When she was in the Nian Mansion, she had never entered a place like the kitchen. Whenever she gave an order, there were always people rushing to do it.

Now she had to do it herself, getting up early and working hard for the emperor's preferences, which made her feel really uncomfortable.

Nianpin said as she placed the cakes on the table:

"After the incident with Concubine Wan, the Emperor has never come to my place again. Last night, Xiao Xiazi sent a message saying that the Emperor was coming. I don't know if the Emperor is still angry with me. I did all this just to hope that the Emperor would not be angry with me."

Song Zhi bowed and said softly, "Your Majesty has good intentions, and the Emperor has always treated you with love and respect. When the Emperor sees that these meals are made by your own hands, he will definitely be very touched. How could he be angry with you?

The more your Majesty talks, the more worried she becomes."

Nianpin stopped what she was doing and turned to look at Songzhi.

"Yeah, how could I become like this?

The Emperor has reprimanded me before, but this time, I feel uneasy. I heard that a few days ago, another minister reported my brother to the court. I have to test the Emperor's mood later."

Songzhi comforted her a few more times, and since she couldn't persuade her, she stayed with the empress and guarded the place together.

The sky gradually brightened. Concubine Nian was very happy looking at the table full of dishes. If Songzhi hadn't reminded her, she would have almost forgotten to wash and dress up.

Seeing that the emperor was coming, Concubine Nian was so anxious that she inserted a golden hairpin into her hair, which frightened Songzhi and reminded her: "Your Majesty, be careful or you might get hurt."

Just as he finished speaking, he heard a voice outside, "The Emperor has arrived!"

Concubine Nian hurried to the bedroom and knelt on the ground to greet the emperor.

The emperor was a little surprised to see her dressed so freshly today. "You rarely wear such plain clothes. It looks so fresh and unique in the summer."

Nianpin smiled and pulled the emperor to sit down, and replied: "I feel that I wear bright clothes every day, but seeing those bright colors in summer can't help but add a bit of heat, it's better to wear some fresh colors to give people a refreshing feeling.

Besides, my status is not as high as before, so I'd better keep a low profile."

The emperor nodded and looked at the food on the table.
