I'm trying to kill myself in Legend of Zhen Huan

"Your Majesty, Aunt Zhuxi is here."

"My slave, please pay your respects to the Emperor."

"What's the matter, Madam Queen?"

"The Queen Mother invites you to have dinner at the Peony Pavilion."

"Hmm? Aunt Zhuxi, do you know why the Empress Dowager called me?"

"I don't know. The emperor will know when he goes there. I'll take my leave."

Xiao Xiazi whispered something in Su Peisheng's ear.

"What are you two, master and disciple, whispering about?"

"Your Majesty, Xiao Xiazi said that the Queen Mother asked you to go, and it should be related to a woman."

"Girl? Tell me about it."

"Your Majesty, I heard that it was the Queen Mother who summoned Lord Ulanara Etenyi's daughter, Ulanara Zhezhe, to the palace."

"is her?"

"Great, you are really my good mother. Since the Queen Mother cares about me so much, I can't refuse the Queen Mother's kindness."

"Su Peisheng, go tell Zhang Tingyu that the Empress Dowager wants to help me with a marriage tonight. As for state affairs, I have no time to care about them."

"Your Majesty, if this servant spreads the news like this, what will happen to your reputation and the reputation of the Queen Mother?"

"Reputation? The Qing Dynasty is about to fall, what's the use of reputation for me? Those trivial things in the harem every day, those calculations, I! It's not that I don't know, I'm just too lazy to pay attention. I just sent a message to Nian Gengyao yesterday, can't they wait! I haven't died yet, and they have already started to calculate for this position!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down~"

"Xia Zi, quietly tell Concubine He and Concubine Hua not to worry, I will take care of it."

"Why are you here? Did you come here on horseback or in a carriage? Why, did you miss me too much?"

"I came to see you today for something serious."

"Hey, tell me, what's the urgent matter that brought you all this way? Have you finished reading that book called 'History of Chinese Navigation'?"

"I came to see you today for a private matter."

"What's the matter? You seem quite serious."

Zong Jing recounted the entire story of why Ulanara Zhezhe entered the palace.

"Are you serious about what you say?"

"We've been friends for so many years. You don't know who I am. I won't joke about things like this. You have to help me. As long as it doesn't implicate my sister, I can do anything."

"That's what you said."

Zongjing nodded.

"In fact, you should have done this a long time ago. As long as you are useful to the court, the emperor is your backer. Why do you have to avoid his edge? After all, you are your father's legitimate son. How dare your stepmother do this to you?"

Zong Jing said nothing, but a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Don't worry, leave this matter to me."

The Peony Pavilion

"The Emperor has arrived~"

"Greetings to the Empress Dowager~"

"Your humble servant/common woman, pays respects to His Majesty."

"Get up."

"What is it that the Empress Dowager wants her son to come here for?"

"It's been a long time since you came to eat at my place. It just so happens that I've been in poor health recently, and the queen is filial, so she called Ulanara's cousin to come over to take care of me."

"Oh my goodness, you guys were having a delicious meal and didn't even call me!"

"I pay my respects to my brother, my mother, and my sister-in-law."

The Queen Mother looked at her good boy Fourteen and felt better. "You are already so grown up, but you really have no manners at all."

"We are all family, what rules should we follow? How come I have never seen this beauty before? Did the Empress Dowager marry a concubine for her son?"

"Nonsense, what nonsense are you talking about!"

"Zhezhe, come on, meet the Fourteenth Prince."

"This commoner has met the Fourteenth Prince."

"Eh? Why are you unhappy, my beauty? Is someone bullying you? Tell me and I will help you fight back."

"Fourteen!" The Queen Mother was a little angry. Her own Fourteen had never been so frivolous, and she didn't know who he learned this from.

"This is your cousin."

"Cousin? I've never seen her. Could she be some distant cousin?"

The Queen Mother felt that she had a conflict with her youngest son today. "This is the legitimate daughter of Ulanara Etenyi, a branch of the Ulanara clan, Ulanara Zhezhe."

"Are you Ulanara Zhezhe?"

"It's a folk girl."

"Hey, isn't this an acquaintance? How about it? Have you decided on a date to marry my brother Zong Jing? I'm still waiting to attend your wedding!"

Yinzhen had been listening to Yinzhi's nonsense, and finally heard the main topic. Fortunately, he did not interrupt. His good brother really came to help him. "

"Fourteen, don't talk nonsense."

This time, Uya was really angry. This unfortunate son was deliberately trying to sabotage her.

"Empress Dowager, I am not talking nonsense. Zong Jing and Miss Zhezhe have been childhood sweethearts. The marriage was decided when Zong Jing's mother was still alive. All our friends know about it. If others don't know, I can spread the word. I guarantee that the whole capital will know about it by tomorrow morning."

"Fourth Brother, are you just going to watch your fourteenth brother act like this?"

"Mother Queen, I feel that my Fourteenth Brother is open-minded, outspoken, and has a pure heart. I am proud to have such a brother."

Yinzhen was extremely excited. He had planned to explain it to his brother later, but he didn't expect that his brother trusted him so much.

"By the way, Empress Dowager, why did you call Miss Zhezhe into the palace? You don't really want to find a concubine for your son, do you?"

"Mother Empress, I'm telling you, this is absolutely not okay. A friend's wife should not be bullied. I can't do such a thing!"

After saying that, Yinzhen glanced at his fourth brother and said exaggeratedly: "Mother, you are not going to find a concubine for my brother, are you? That is even worse! My brother is my brother's brother, isn't he? My brother must not do such a thing, it would really bring shame to the royal family!"

Then he glanced at the Queen, with a look of anger on his face and said: "Sister-in-law, you are really generous. Not only did you take the initiative to recruit concubines for your brother, but you also personally accompanied him for meals. You are really a role model for women in the world!" After saying this, he kept clicking his tongue.

"She's nothing like my Yanyan. She even ate and didn't overturn the table for me. I think she's virtuous!"

Wu Ya couldn't bear it any longer, so she picked up a steamed bun on the table and threw it at Old Fourteen, "Get out of here, all of you, and don't hang around in front of me. I'm annoyed just by looking at you."

The two brothers stood up, and Yinzhen said, "Su Peisheng, send Miss Zhezhe to Concubine He's place. Her place is big, so have someone send her out of the palace tomorrow morning."

"Wait~"

"What's the matter? Is there something wrong with the Queen?"

"Your Majesty, you have misunderstood me. Jianqiu, please quickly bring up the gift I prepared for Zhezhe."

A necklace made of red stones appeared in front of everyone. "Cousin Zhezhe, consider this as a greeting gift from me."

Ulanara Zhezhe quickly knelt down and saluted, "I have done nothing good and have no virtue. I cannot accept this gift. Please take it back, Your Majesty."

The Queen still had her signature smile on her face. "Your Majesty, look how sensible our cousin Zhezhe is. Zhezhe, you are being so formal. This palace and the Queen Mother didn't know that you were engaged a long time ago. I guess you are getting married soon at this age. Just consider this as a gift from this palace and the Queen Mother."
