Zhen Huan is still in love, and her sister's goal is to become the queen mother

When meeting the queen, Huimin did not want to stand out.

"My lady, you are going to meet the Queen today. Would you like to dress up formally?"

Ruyi asked, holding up a few new clothes.

"When meeting the Queen, it's better to be low-key and not attract attention."

"Give me a simple bun and pick out some plain hairpins."

"As for clothes, wear the new moon-white one. This color is low-key and not too gaudy, nor will it lose face."

After Ruyi was dressed up, Shunxin carefully checked to see if there was anything wrong, and then Ruyi hurried to Jingren Palace.

On the way to Jingren Palace, Huimin unexpectedly met Xia Dongchun.

The Yanx Palace is adjacent to the Jingren Palace, the Chuxiu Palace is in the western six palaces, and the Jingren Palace is in the eastern six palaces. They are far apart, but I didn't expect to meet Xia Dongchun here.

When she saw Xia Dongchun, she didn't wear the clothes made of the material awarded by the Queen. It seemed that she was stunned by what she said that day. But she was not dressed low-key today. She was dressed in pink and looked more beautiful than flowers.

She... Alas, she only remembers the food and not the beating. Huimin is helpless towards Xia Dongchun.

"Xian is always here."

Huimin was surprised to see Xia Dongchun greeting her from afar. The sun rises from the west. Has Concubine Xia changed her personality?

As soon as he got close to Xia Dongchun, he actually moved closer to Huimin and said in a flattering manner:

"I didn't wear the material given by the Empress, so Concubine Hua won't blame me, right?"

Is she stupid? How could it be so easy to get away with offending Concubine Hua?

Huimin glanced at her.

"What do you think? You think you can just let it go after offending the queen. Have you really learned the palace rules well in the mansion?"

Palace rules? Xia Dongchun seemed stunned.

"Is it you who didn't learn enough, or is it that the maid didn't teach enough? If you make a mistake, and then the palace rules are applied, it's enough to put you to death."

Looking at Huimin's eyes, Xia Dongchun didn't know what he was imagining or what he knew.

"I understand, thank you."

There was some awkwardness in Xia Dongchun's usual tone. Huimin didn't know whether Xia Dongchun understood what she said. She just watched her leave in a hurry.

After entering Jingren Palace, all the beauties were present. Huimin stood next to Noble Lady Fucha, in front of Xia Dongchun.

The Queen has already greeted the concubines for several times, but Concubine Hua has not arrived yet.

"I'm not too late, am I?"

It's true that I heard the voice before I saw the person.

"Greetings to Concubine Hua."

After seeing Concubine Hua's true appearance, Huimin couldn't help but admire her. What a bright and charming beauty! No wonder it was said that even if all the eight banners of Manchuria and Mongolia were put together, they could not compare to Concubine Hua's beauty.

However, when the beauties came to pay their respects, Concubine Hua ignored them and only focused on exchanging witty remarks with the Queen. The two of them argued openly and secretly for a few words, and also gave the new ladies who entered the palace a warning.

Seeing the two of them like this, Huimin warned herself to be careful of the Queen and Concubine Hua.

The new ladies all kowtowed to the queen and asked for courtesies from the high-ranking concubines.

As expected, Concubine Hua did not call upon the concubines who were paying their respects. Instead, she started discussing jadeite with the Queen, implicitly mocking the Queen's old age and ugly looks.

Huimin's legs were so stiff that she was about to tremble, and Concubine Hua was called up only after being reminded by the Queen.

As soon as she stood up, Huimin heard Concubine Hua named Xia Dongchun.

She must not make any mistakes this time.

Perhaps the prayers in her heart worked, for this time when Xia Dongchun heard, "There is a Changzai Xia who is said to be very capable," she did not act timidly, but rather much more respectful.

This time, Xia Dongchun did not wear the material given by the Queen. Although the pink color was conspicuous, her brain was still working this time. When Hua Fei asked questions, she not only did not flatter the Queen everywhere, but also praised Hua Fei a few words and fooled her.

Seeing that Xia Dongchun was still respectful, Concubine Hua changed the subject and directed her criticism at Zhen Huan and Shen Meiyu.

After these two were called, Meizhuang seemed to want to be humble after hearing Concubine Hua praising her.

"The beauty of Concubine Hua is truly remarkable. How dare a mere firefly compete with the brightness of the pearl of Concubine Hua?"

Mei Zhuang is so beautiful that she has a natural beauty. Concubine Hua will seize on the flaw in her words and make a fuss about it.

"But speaking of beauty, isn't this the word used to describe the queen?"

As expected, seeing Concubine Hua’s disdainful smile, Mei Zhuang looked at a loss.

The more you talk, the more mistakes you make; the less you talk, the fewer mistakes you make, Huimin thought, and she tried her best to reduce her presence and avoid being called.

The Queen was about to speak when she saw that the atmosphere was getting bad, but Zhen Huan took the lead and hurriedly came to Mei Zhuang's rescue.

"The Empress is as radiant as the bright moon, and Concubine Hua is as beautiful as a pearl. I, your concubine, cannot even compare to her."

Zhen Huan spoke wittily, but in this situation, her cleverness was bound to be noted by Concubine Hua.

Alas... Huimin was still sighing in her heart, when she suddenly heard Concubine Hua calling her name. She was startled, but she still greeted her respectfully.

"I am Xilin Jueluo Huimin, the concubine of Chuxiu Palace, and I am here to see Her Majesty Hua Fei."

"I heard that the emperor gave you the character 'Xian'. I wonder if your talents and virtues are worthy of that title?"

Concubine Hua criticized Zhen Huan for her eyebrows, but was blocked by Zhen Huan in return. She was feeling unhappy, and when she mentioned the word "virtuous", she glanced at Huimin and showed a slightly dissatisfied smile.

"Your Highness is wise and courageous in managing the six palaces, and the Empress is a model of virtue for women in the world. The virtues of the two ladies are admirable to me, and I cannot even begin to catch up. I wish to live up to the word virtuous under the guidance of the two ladies."

The title of "Xian" was bestowed by the Emperor himself. I must not deny that I am worthy of this title, nor can I be arrogant. This move avoids the important issue and hopes to resolve the situation.

Huimin lowered her eyes and stared at the ground, not looking directly at Concubine Hua. There was no dissatisfaction on her face, but she lowered her posture even more.

Hua Fei is domineering, so it is best to flatter her and be as humble as possible. The Queen values ​​her rights as the Queen, and to affirm her position as the Queen, she needs to avoid the limelight and must keep a low profile at this time.

Fortunately...

When Concubine Hua saw Huimin's look, she snorted but didn't make things difficult for her.

When the Queen heard Huimin say that she was a model for the country and a role model for women in the world, a smile appeared on her face.

"Alright, Xian Changzai is young but also knows etiquette. All the sisters who enter the palace must abide by the palace rules. Do not be jealous and work hard to give birth to children for the emperor."

Perhaps she had seen enough of Concubine Hua's tricks against the new ladies, so the Queen smoothed things over, gave a few more warnings, and said:

"You are all tired today, so just kneel down and pay your respects."

"Yes, the concubine is retiring."

After the ladies knelt down to pay their respects, Huimin knew that the next step would be the crucial one to save Xia Dongchun.
