at the same time.

No one noticed.

Concubine Zhen was holding the jade pendant left by the emperor in her palace, and looked at all this with a dimmed look in her eyes.

"My queen, are you okay?" Zhenzhu reached out and supported her body as she nearly fell. "I never thought that Zuo Qianrou would be so scheming. She would even fight with you for this favor."

The glimmer of light that had just ignited in Zhenpin's eyes dimmed in an instant: "What can be seen? What can't be seen? As long as there are women living in this palace, which one will not compete for favor?"

"Your Majesty, you are pregnant now. Don't bother with that woman. There is a long time to live. Just wait until the prince is born safely." Zhenzhu said worriedly.

"Prince?" Concubine Zhen snorted coldly.

She knows better than anyone.

From the day she became pregnant, the imperial physician had concluded that there was no way the prince could be born full term.

Her bond with the child was maintained only by the bitter medicine she drank every day.

The imperial physician told her to relax.

Zhenzhu also advised her to be more open-minded.

But the emperor ignored her all day long. For the first time in half a year, she was seduced by the woman who lived with her in the same palace in the early morning. How could she be at ease?

At the moment she lost consciousness.

The chief steward of the Imperial Household Department had already entered Qingfeng Garden with the palace maids, eunuchs, and various rewards from Emperor Yuanwu.

In addition to some nourishing medicinal herbs, there are also some cloths.

The rest were all given to Zuo Qianrou as rewards.

Concubine Zhen's heart skipped a beat.

Since they are all rewards, why would Emperor Yuanwu favor one over the other?

I clearly know that they live in the same palace.

As she looked at these rewards, even the last bit of joy in her heart disappeared.

Compared with her.

Zuo Qianrou did not seem as excited about these rewards as she had expected. She accepted them calmly, thanked the emperor, took some silver, arranged for the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and returned to her palace, never to come out again.

"Ugh!" Pearl couldn't help but spit. "How shameless! You robbed someone else's reward, so you should be happy behind closed doors."

Just now.

Zuo Qianrou and Cai'er had been standing at the door without her noticing when.

Pearl was so frightened that she couldn't help but tremble.

She didn't know if Zuo Qianrou heard what she just said. If she did...

Concubine Zhen looked unhappy: "Okay, stop talking. Go ask Doctor Xie when to come and check Ping's pulse."

"Yes, ma'am."

Zhenzhu glanced at Zuo Qianrou guiltily and quickly left the room.

Time for a cup of tea.

Zuo Qianrou walked out of Concubine Zhen’s bedroom.

Cai Er, who had been holding back for a long time, had just stepped out of Concubine Zhen's bedroom when she couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, didn't you hear what Zhenzhu said just now? She is Concubine Zhen's personal maid."

"So what?" Zuo Qianrou said disapprovingly, "Don't you often talk about others in front of me? It's just for fun."

Cai'er was choked for a moment and didn't know what to say.

Zuo Qianrou seemed very satisfied with their previous conversation.

As long as you get what you want, nothing else matters.

Cai'er's words yesterday completely woke her up.

We really can't just sit there and wait for death. If we fight for it today, we will have this noble person.

When Zhenzhu brought Doctor Xie to Qingfeng Garden.

Zuo Qianrou has returned to her palace.
