Huimin asked the empress dowager for help, and after an imperial decree, Concubine Xin was quickly released from the Ministry of Punishment.

Xin Chang returned to Chuxiu Palace and then came to Huimin to thank her.

She is a straightforward person and doesn't beat around the bush. She expresses her gratitude clearly right away.

"Sister Xian has helped me a lot this time. Fortunately, your two eunuchs sent me gifts and money. Otherwise, I would have suffered a lot in the Ministry of Punishment."

Xin always thanked Huimin earnestly and was truly grateful from the bottom of her heart.

"And thank you for going to the Queen Mother. I didn't expect you to go there for me. Everyone in the palace is afraid of getting into trouble, but you are rushing into the fire."

Xin often speaks rudely, but Huimin knows what she means and doesn't mind.

"We sisters live in the same palace. When I first entered the palace, my elder sister said that we should take care of each other. Now that my elder sister is in trouble, how can I, as her younger sister, just stand by and watch."

Seeing Huimin say this, Xin Changzai was really moved. Huimin had only been in the palace for half a year, but she had already been given the title of noble lady. It was only a matter of time before she was given the title of concubine or imperial consort in the future.

And I have been just a maid for so many years, and I am of little use to her. Considering the friendship between them, it is really a kindness for her to help me.

"You helped me this time, I owe you a favor. Next time if you have any problems, I will definitely help you."

Xin Changzai didn't say anything empty and directly stated the conditions of the exchange.

"You should be careful of the queen. She looks kind and it is not easy for her to be promoted to the position of the queen after the previous wife passed away."

Huimin was a little surprised to see that Xin Changzai specifically reminded her to be wary of the Queen.

It seems that this move was effective.

Although he knew what kind of person the queen was, it was better to have a legitimate reason for doing things.

The two were chatting when they heard Ruyi's voice and a noise outside.

Huimin was about to send someone to check, but she saw the door curtain suddenly lifted.

A delicate little girl rushed in and pounced on Xin Changzai.

Huimin was shocked, "This..."

Xin often hugged the girl and called her sweetheart.

"Yun Fei, why are you here? Over there, Brother..."

Xin Changzai was obviously surprised to see her daughter, but also worried.

She has such a kind heart as a loving mother. Even Xin Changzai, who is usually straightforward and cheerful, has tears in her eyes and reveals an expression of someone who is carefully protecting a treasure.

Regardless of the character of these mothers in the harem, at least they truly love their children.

"Mother, I heard from Mammy that mother was locked up in a very scary place. I'm scared, I'm scared, mother, I miss you."

Xin Chang felt even more distressed when she heard her daughter say this, and quickly said:

"Be good, Yun Fei, don't be afraid, Yun Fei, don't be afraid, mother is here, and your virtuous mother has rescued mother."

In order to comfort her daughter, Xin Changzai also specially asked Yun Fei to meet Huimin.

"Come, meet your virtuous mother."

Yun Fei is a quiet little girl. Her personality is unlike her mother's. She is more introverted.

She looked at Huimin curiously, raised her little face, and called out crisply, "Hello, virtuous mother."

Huimin was also happy to see her, there were few children in the palace, only the third prince and two princesses. The fourth and fifth princes were both raised outside.

Apart from Wen Yi, the daughter of Concubine Cao, Huimin had never seen any other children.

This was the first time I met Princess Huimin.

"Yun Fei is so cute. Xian'e Niang likes you very much. Here, I give you this."

Huimin took off the bracelet on her hand and handed it to Yunfei.

He also asked Ruyi to bring a little tiger made of gold.

In order to give the children suitable gifts, I made a lot of things, including gold and jade.

Toama spent a lot of money to make this, it is a very worthy gift.

When this thing was taken out, Xin Changzai refused to take it, saying that her annual monthly allowance could not even buy this amount.

Huimin was not the stingy type, she just said, "The most important thing is that the princess likes it, Yunfei can take it."

The little princess looked at the lifelike tiger and obviously liked it very much. Xin Changzai saw that her daughter really liked it and did not refuse.

But then her attitude towards Huimin changed. If before it was just polite exchange of interests and gratitude for help, the two of them had a relationship of interest, but after accepting the golden tiger, Xin Changzai's attitude also had a bit of personal friendship.

Borrowing a child can quickly bring people closer, like Concubine Xin and Concubine Cao.

It is true that a mother’s status is determined by her son in the palace, but it is also true that a son’s status is determined by his mother.

The mother's status often affects the princes and princesses. Since Concubine Xin is not in a prominent position, her daughter seems to be a nobody.

This might be Concubine Xin's way of survival in the palace, but on the other hand, Yun Fei couldn't enjoy many things. What Wen Yi had, she didn't have.

Looking at this little girl, Huimin knew how Concubine Xin survived in the harem, which was to be neutral, not relying on Concubine Hua or the Queen. But this meant relying on no one, and her family didn't contribute much. She tried not to stand out, but the disadvantage was also obvious - it made the princess unpopular.

Doesn’t Concubine Xin have any plans for her daughter’s future?

This is her only flesh and blood.

Huimin watched her accept the gift and take the initiative to let her daughter contact her, and she knew that Xin Chang had planned this intentionally.

Huimin also tacitly praised the princess for being cute and expressed her love for her, but did not mention anything about Concubine Xin.

Most of their communication focused on the eldest princess.

The little princess's clothes are all nice, but her jewelry and toys are all standard, nothing special.

Then we know that the little princess's situation is just relatively safe, but extremely ordinary.

After chatting for a while, Chang Xin asked her daughter to go back to her own room first, and she stayed to talk with Huimin alone.

Huimin knew what she meant, and before Xin Changzai opened her mouth, Huimin got straight to the point.

"Of course I won't use Yun Fei to compete for your favor, don't worry, sister."

The children of lower-ranking concubines are usually raised by higher-ranking concubines. When Huimin is promoted to the head of a palace, she can naturally raise Xin Changzai's daughter.

If Huimin is interested, she can also use Yunfei to win the emperor's favor, just like Concubine Hua did.

Ke Xin Changzai naturally didn't want this to happen.

"Sister, of course you trust me. When I move into the main hall of Chuxiu Palace, I will come to congratulate you."

After getting Huimin's promise, Xin Changzai didn't waste any words and directly stated that she would not do anything wrong and was willing to live under Huimin in the future.

Don't do anything that would hinder Huimin.

Huimin smiled after hearing this. She didn't ask Xin Changzai to join her side, she only asked her not to stab her in the back in Chuxiu Palace. Just hearing her words would be enough.

Only when the rear area was stabilized did the Empress and Concubine Hua have no chance to take advantage.

"The princess is so cute. Sister, please bring Yunfei here more often. I have some things left, so I'll give them to Yunfei."

Huimin also reciprocated the favor, allowing Xin Changzai to see the benefits of working for her.
