"You really still look down on me." Huanbi raised her eyes to look at Zhen Huan with self-mockery on her face.

"It is important for a person to respect himself. Since you have chosen this path, you should know that no one will look down on you anymore!"

Zhen Huan let go of Huanbi, walked to the other side of the Luohan bed and sat down, then said:

"That day when my brother entered the palace, you suddenly came to Suiyuxuan and told him everything. I thought you considered yourself a member of the Zhen family. Now what you are doing is trying to wipe out the entire Zhen family?!"

"Hehe...Zhen family? When did you ever treat me as a Zhen family member? If you treated me as a Zhen family member, how could I have come to this point?"

"Didn't I beg you before? Can't you see what I want? If you really consider me a member of the Zhen family, why won't you help me? Why do you want me to beg others?!"

"Don't you think it's ridiculous when Lady Wan interrogates me? If we are both daughters of the Zhen family, why are you the master? And I can only be a slave?!"

As Huanbi spoke, tears ran down her face, leaving two deep tear marks. Zhen Huan just looked at her coldly without answering.

"Lady Ruowan came to Zhongcui Palace today to vent Lady Yi's anger. Now that she has vented her anger, she can go back." Huanbi wiped the tears from her face and spoke only after looking at the dressing box in front of her.

"You still don't understand now. If that matter is exposed, the entire Zhen family will be implicated. Don't be deceived by Concubine Hua."

After listening to Huanbi's crying, Zhen Huan couldn't help but feel soft-hearted. Even if the person in front of her was wrong, he still had the blood of the Zhen family flowing in his body. Thinking of this, her tone softened.

"What can I do? They all want to get rid of Concubine Yi, what can I do? Big sister, can you please save me? Can you please ask the Emperor to let me move back to Sui Yuxuan?" Seeing that Zhen Huan's tone softened, Huanbi suddenly stood up and knelt in front of Zhen Huan.

Zhen Huan looked at Huanbi in front of her, with a pleading look on her face, but it was not reflected in her eyes.

"Who wants to harm you? Why do you want me to save you?" Zhen Huan helped Huanbi up and asked.

"Sister, don't you think it's strange that I'm fat? Although I don't have a mother to teach me, I have seen pregnant women, and none of them were as fat as me." Huanbi continued to cry.

"Since you knew, why did you become like this?" Zhen Huan looked into Huanbi's eyes, wanting to see how she could still argue.

"No, elder sister, you know I've never been a greedy person. At first, I just thought that pregnant women would eat a few more bites, but later, I gradually discovered that I would feel uncomfortable if I ate less. Even if I ate a few bites less, I would feel hungry. In this way, I can only rely on eating to relieve the pain. Elder sister, please save me..." Huanbi knelt down again, this time with tears streaming down her face.

Zhen Huan looked at Huanbi in front of her, thought for a long time and said, "What did the imperial physician say?"

"Doctor Zhang always tells me to eat less, saying that if the fetus is too big, it will be difficult to deliver. But I just can't help eating. Sister, someone wants to harm me. Please let me move back to Sui Yuxuan." As Huanbi said this, she was about to kowtow to Zhen Huan.

Zhen Huan hurriedly stopped Huanbi and wanted to agree, but then she remembered the bag of sachets, shoes and socks that Huanbi gave her after she became favored by the emperor. Each of them was dyed with musk!

Zhen Huan was always cautious, so she said, "Let's go and ask the Queen for help."

"You still won't help me! I just made a small request, why don't you help me?!"

Huanbi stood up and glared at Zhen Huan, saying:

"Since the noble Wanren is unwilling to save the bloodline of your Zhen family, then why should I be afraid! Noble Wanren, please!"

Huanbi took a step back and pointed in the direction of the palace door.

"Why are you so extreme now? I didn't say I wouldn't help you. The Queen is the head of the six palaces and has always been kind. She will not ignore such things happening in the palace." Zhen Huan said as she tried to pull Huanbi, but was pushed away by Huanbi.

"Mr. Wan is really naive. Do you think I haven't asked for help?"

Huanbi said as she supported herself on the small table and sat back on the Arhat bed, and then said:

"The noble lady Wan also asked me why I wanted to conspire with Concubine Hua. I did it for the baby in my belly. Since the noble lady Wan refused to help me, I could only rely on her to give birth to my child and give birth to the bloodline of your Zhen family!"

At this time, Huanbi was leaning on the Luohan bed, looking at Zhen Huan coldly. Zhen Huan saw cruelty in her eyes.

"Are you threatening me?" Zhen Huan turned sideways to look at Huanbi, while Huanbi raised the corners of her lips and looked at Zhen Huan.

"Lady Wan is such a joker. You are my eldest sister, how could I threaten you?" After a few breaths, Huanbi stroked her belly and laughed.

"I will never allow you to harm the Zhen family. If you dare to harm the Zhen family, don't blame me for not caring about our sisterly love." After Zhen Huan finished speaking, the two of them stared at each other coldly, and no one spoke again.

Within a few days, almost all the concubines in the palace knew that Zhen Heng was going to marry Xue Qiantao, the daughter of the Xue family, a scholarly family in the capital. After this news spread, Concubine Hua no longer talked about the gossip about Zhen Heng and An Lingrong.

In mid-February, an epidemic spread in the palace. An Lingrong was well prepared for this. Once the epidemic broke out, An Lingrong forbade the palace maids and eunuchs in Chengqian Palace to contact the outside world, and burned mugwort leaves every day to drive away the epidemic.

An Lingrong took strict precautions in the palace and asked Juqing to go to the Yanx Palace to ask Sang'er to worry more. One reason was to prevent epidemics, and the other was to prevent Concubine Hua. In her previous life, Shen Meiyu suffered a lot for this.

Because of the epidemic, there was no need to pay respects to the Queen. An Lingrong also sent a verbal message to Shen Meiyu. The epidemic was severe, and it was impossible for An Lingrong to go in person.

More and more people in the palace were infected with the epidemic, and people were in a panic. An Lingrong was also trying hard to recall the prescriptions for treating the epidemic that she had heard in her previous life.

But the last life was too long ago, and I only vaguely remember a few medicinal herbs that I could smell, and I don’t know if they are the key, and I can’t tell this thing to anyone.

"Juqing, ask someone to invite Meng Zhaoxing over." An Lingrong waved at Juqing, who responded and left. After a cup of tea, Meng Zhaoxing arrived at Zhenshunzhai.

"My lady, are you feeling well? The Imperial Hospital is in chaos. I am late. Please forgive me."

Meng Zhaoxing knelt down and saluted, with beads of sweat on his forehead. It seemed that he was in a hurry to get here. He could still sweat in such a weather, which meant that he was really busy.

"Lord Meng, please stand up and speak." An Lingrong raised her hand, and Meng Zhaoxing stood aside.

"I don't know medicine, but there was an epidemic in my hometown. Please write down a few medicines I'm going to give you. If they are useful, you can use them. If they are not useful, you can just leave them aside." After An Lingrong finished speaking, Meng Zhaoxing bowed.

"My lord, you are concerned about the epidemic, and I am very grateful. Just tell me, and I will write it down." After saying this, Meng Zhaoxing took out a pen and paper from his medical box, and Juqing led Meng Zhaoxing to a table.

"Patchouli leaves, costus root, agarwood, Magnolia officinalis, Trillium, Liushenqu, realgar, and Elaeagnus odoratus, these are all I remember." After An Lingrong finished speaking, Meng Zhaoxing showed joy.
