Yanxi Palace, Yanhui Garden.

Hua Ni took a bite of the greasy sweet pastry and gulped down water: "This, this is what Concubine Zhaochun likes to eat?"

Bao Er laughed happily: "Yes, my lady, you have become a concubine. Sister Taoxi came to congratulate you and let you have a taste."

"It's so sweet that I'm dizzy. Tell Taoxi not to give it to me anymore. Let Concubine Zhaochun enjoy this blessing by herself."

Hua Ni rolled her eyes: "Maybe she's in a bad mood and wants to sweeten me to death."

Bao Er looked at her and tried to hold back her laughter: "My lady, I dare not say this. You should go and talk to the Imperial Concubine in person."

"How can I meet her?" Hua Ni drank a glass of water in one gulp, and Baoer quickly poured her another.

Hua Ni smiled charmingly: "It's amazing, she became a concubine without any notice, the tree I hugged is really big enough."

"My lady, Sister Taoxi gave this back to you." Baoer handed the thing over.

"fragrant?"

Baoer nodded, unfolded the note and let her see it.

Your Majesty is in health trouble. This fragrance will make people dependent on you and make men linger on you and reluctant to leave your bed.

Hua Ni placed the note on the candle and looked at the burning smoke: "Humph, it's just to seduce men, do I still need the blessing of this thing?"

"Then the servant will take it first?"

"Hey, leave it there!" Hua Ni stopped her. Seeing Bao Er laughing, she felt a little embarrassed and annoyed. "I'm just afraid that she'll find out that I lost her things and get angry with me, and then feed me these...sweet things again."

Hua Ni shuddered: "Bring the books from my cabinet."

Baoer came over holding the book, a little puzzled: "My lady, didn't you give this book to Concubine Zhaochun?"

Hua Ni raised her red lips and said, "Give it to her. This one... is naturally the second volume."

"what?"

How could she give away her Hua family's unique skills so easily?

Now that Concubine Gao's situation is over, she has become a concubine. Since she has received a favor, she must repay it.

Hua Ni held the booklet for a long time before closing it. She tilted her head and asked, "Noble Concubine Gao, do you know what day it is today?"

Baoer: "Probably, I don't know..."

"Really?" Hua Ni tidied up her outer robe lazily: "Such an important matter must be informed to the imperial concubine."

Baoer understood and supported her: "My lady is right."

There are people coming and going here. They received rewards today and the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent them many things. Compared with Concubine Gao's place, it is really lively.

Half of the servants and maids serving in Yanxi Palace were missing. Caiyue came out of the room with slap marks on her face. When she saw Hua Ni coming, she quickly wiped the corners of her eyes.

"Cai Yue, what's wrong?" Hua Ni asked worriedly, taking a handkerchief to wipe her face.

Caiyue quickly turned her head and took a few steps back: "This servant pays respects to Hua Changzai."

Although he said he was paying respects, he didn't even bend his body: "Although our queen is under house arrest now, it is only temporary. If you want to do anything, you'd better keep it to yourself."

This is because he was afraid that she would take revenge on the imperial concubine because of past events.

Hua Ni's upturned eyes softened: "Cai Yue, how could you think like that? I live with the Imperial Concubine. Now that the Imperial Concubine is in trouble, it means that I have no shelter either. How could I add insult to injury?"

Cai Yue heard her say this, her tone still stiff: "What do you mean by protection or not? The Queen is powerful now, and Imperial Concubine Zhaochun is also rising rapidly. You can just get close to her!"

Bao Er stuttered in anger: "Cai Yue, although you are the imperial concubine's personal maid, our master is always here. How dare you, a maid, speak like this!"

Caiyue snorted, "My lady, please go back. Our queen doesn't want to see anyone."

Hua Ni shook her head at Bao Er and spoke to her in a gentle voice: "Cai Yue, if I want to do something, why would I come to talk to you? The imperial concubine is under house arrest and it is difficult to invite the imperial physician. You know I know some pharmacology. Bao Er told me everything about you cooking medicine in the small kitchen these few days."

Caiyue bit her lip, her eyes suspicious: "Are you going to...save my queen?"

"If the Imperial Concubine gets better soon, Yanxi Palace will have a backbone, right?" Hua Ni laughed at herself, "Even if I am given the title of a concubine, how can I surpass Imperial Concubine Zhaochun? You can see how beautiful the Imperial Concubine is now. Only if she gets better can she snatch the favor of Imperial Concubine Zhaochun, right?"

Hua Ni took out the ointment from her sleeve and said, "This is some skin ointment I mixed when I was free. If you apply it, the marks on your face will get better."

Caiyue refused: "Then, what about the Queen? You can also go and curry favor with the Queen. The Imperial Concubine treated you like this before, and you don't get along with the Queen. How can you continue to stay with the Imperial Concubine?"

A trace of disappointment flashed in Hua Ni's eyes: "Princess Qi is pregnant, Concubine Rui is also supported by the Queen, and Concubine Ling is also by her side. I...what do I have that is worthy of the Queen's attention?"

Her voice was sentimental: "Your Majesty, the Queen doesn't like my appearance..."

Caiyue's thoughts turned. Now the Queen must be competing against Concubine Zhaochun. Hua Ni is also very charming, which makes her disliked.

"Forget it, I won't bother you today."

Hua Ni turned around, and Cai Yue quickly spoke: "My lady!" This time she was more sincere: "Please, my lady, help the queen."

She didn't even go in to ask, but just opened the door and Hua Ni went in.

Baoer stuffed the ointment into her hands and said, "Since my young master was able to help your queen gain favor in the past, she can naturally heal her today."

Caiyue smiled flatteringly and touched her swollen cheek: "As long as the queen is okay."

The hall was dark, and the smell of medicine mixed with some rotten smell nearby made people feel uncomfortable.

Hua Ni opened the window, and the person on the bed shuddered: "Don't! Don't open it! What's that noise? What's that noise? It's so noisy, it's killing me!"

Bang, bang, bang! She threw away her headrest and cup and hid in the bed screaming.

Hua Ni paused, half-opened the window, and walked towards her.

"My lady, it's me, Hua Ni."

She drew aside the curtain and saw the person inside, wearing an outer robe and huddled into a ball. She had a gentle face, looked much thinner, and her eyes were full of red bloodshot.

Her pride was shattered by His Majesty's whip, and she became such a frightened bird.

Hua Ni picked up the things on the ground and poured her some tea: "My Lady, have some hot water."

Concubine Gao's hair was tied up in a mess, fixed with a long silver hairpin. Her whole face was blue, and when he stared at her, he looked like an evil ghost who had been dead for several days.

"Hua Ni...what are you doing here? Are you here to laugh at me?"

She pushed away the teacup in front of her and grabbed Hua Ni's collar. The unpleasant smell from her body filled her nose.

Hua Ni couldn't help holding her breath: "My queen, I'm here to help you..."

Concubine Gao's pupils were wide open, and her eyelashes were drooping. "Help me? What's that noise outside? Tell me, my head is about to explode. Whose enthronement ceremony is causing such a loud noise?"

Her voice seemed to be squeezed out of her throat: "Could it be that the queen died and was replaced by someone else?"
