Not long after, Juqing came back from Suiyuxuan with a small basket in her hand. The basket contained medicinal herbs from Suiyuxuan.

Baojuan came out and saw that it was really coming, and her brows frowned. She thought Zhen Huan would not give it to her, so she deliberately instigated An Lingrong to ask Zhen Huan for it. Now that it is really coming, what should she do?

But soon, Baojuan's eyes rolled and a plan came to her mind.

Baojuan came into the room with a sad face. Seeing this, An Lingrong pursed her lips and said, "Baojuan, what's wrong? Is it... is it that Sister Wan didn't give it to you?"

Baojuan shook her head: "I did give it to you, but, but..."

She hesitated.

An Lingrong was curious and asked, "Just what? Could it be... Could it be that Huanbi said something unpleasant?"

An Lingrong could sense that Huanbi didn't like her. She was sensitive by nature. Before she was favored, Huanbi's attitude towards her was quite good. But after she was favored, every time she went to Suiyuxuan, Huanbi would frown at her and look at her in a different light.

This epidemic is so serious that if you ask for medicinal herbs from Suiyuxuan, Huanbi will give them to you, but her attitude will definitely not be good.

Bao Juan still shook her head: "That's not the case, it's just that the herbs given are too few..."

An Lingrong lowered her eyes when she heard this: "Maybe my sister doesn't have many medicinal herbs."

Bao Juan curled her lips: "Who knows."

"Alright, stop talking. It's already great that Sister Wan can give me some at this critical moment." An Lingrong taught him a lesson, but the incident still left a mark in her heart.

Seeing that the epidemic was getting worse, Yinzhen couldn't sleep all night and the atmosphere in the palace was very depressed.

Even the number of times that Noble Lady Fucha sent people to invite Yinzhen had decreased a lot.

In the past two days, the Imperial Hospital sent medicinal materials to all the palaces and gardens again. With the lesson learned from the last time, Noble Lady Fucha reluctantly asked Bai Yu to keep Xia Dongchun's portion and move the rest back to her.

This time, Ju Qing happened to see this and stopped Bai Yu: "What are you doing? Why did you only give Concubine Zhao her share? What about our young master's share?"

Noble Lady Fucha and the people around her couldn't afford to offend Xia Dongchun, but An Lingrong and the others could.

Bai Yu shook off Ju Qing's hand and said, "Humph, Concubine Zhao has Princess Lingyuan, and our young lady is pregnant. What does your young lady have? How dare you ask for it!"

"But this was originally distributed to the entire Yanxi Palace, so our young lady should have a share!" Ju Qing argued.

Bai Yu didn't care. He snorted coldly and left with the herbs.

Ju Qing was so angry that she stamped her feet on the spot, but there was no other way. The emperor and the empress were both worried about the epidemic, and Noble Lady Fucha was pregnant. Even if they reported it to the emperor and the empress, it would be inconsiderate and they would be considered to be causing trouble and being inconsiderate.

It seems that I can only go to Suiyuxuan again this time. Fortunately, my young master has a good relationship with Concubine Wan. In this case, Concubine Wan can still share the medicinal materials with me, otherwise I really don’t know what to do.

——Juqing thought so.

After talking to An Lingrong, Ju Qing went to Sui Yuxuan again.

But this time, the amount of herbs brought back was even less. Sister Pei'er from Suiyuxuan said that it was because Shen Da Ying was ill, so some of the herbs from Concubine Wan were allocated to Cunjutang.

But Juqing was already very grateful in her heart, and carefully took the herbs back to the Yanxi Palace.

Seeing this, An Lingrong subconsciously asked, "Why is there so little this time?"

Juqing answered truthfully. After listening to her, An Lingrong was silent for a moment and let Juqing leave first.

After Juqing left, Baojuan glanced at An Lingrong's expression and tentatively said, "If Lady Wan doesn't want to give it, she can just say so. Although Miss Shen is under house arrest, she must have the herbs. Why bother to give us this perfunctory treatment?"

An Lingrong just remained silent and did not refute, and Baojuan knew that she was right.

"You gave the two pieces of floating brocade to Lady Wan before, but you yourself were reluctant to wear them. She gave them directly to Huanbi. She never said anything about Huanbi's attitude towards you on weekdays. Now we are in trouble and need help. We came to her for help, but the result is like this... How can sisters be like this? What's the logic?"

After Baojuan finished speaking, although she didn't hear An Lingrong agree, she also didn't hear her refute, so she knew that An Lingrong had completely listened to her words this time.

……

Shen Meizhuang was seriously ill. As she was still a criminal and under house arrest, Zhen Huan secretly sought medical treatment for her. Naturally, she recovered more slowly as she was lacking in some things.

At this critical moment, Liu Bin was found.

Regardless of how late it was, Zhen Huan hurriedly took Liu Bin to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.

After hearing Liu Bin's confession, Yinzhen was furious and immediately asked Su Peisheng to convey the imperial decree to strip Concubine Hua of her title and demote her to a concubine.

Su Peisheng glanced at Yinzhen's expression and said, "Your Majesty, it is already late at night. If you pass the paper now, I am afraid it will alarm the six palaces."

"Then let's wait until tomorrow to issue the decree." Yinzhen said casually.

"Yes." Su Peisheng agreed.

Yanxi Palace

"Liu Bin was found?" Xia Dongchun had already lain down, but he turned over and sat up after hearing this. "Doesn't that mean that the truth about Shen Meizhuang's fake pregnancy will be revealed?"

"Yes." Yun Ling said, "I heard from Xiao Xiazi, who is beside the emperor, that someone is going to be in trouble."

Humph, will Concubine Hua let herself get into trouble so easily?" Xia Dongchun chuckled, "Even if she can't think of a solution, Cao Qinmo beside her is no pushover, is she?"

"Yinzhu came back from outside and saw Baoque, who was beside An Chang, heading towards Yikun Palace." Yun Ling reminded.

"An Lingrong is so smart, she thinks she is so powerful." Xia Dongchun lost interest and lay down to cover herself with the quilt. "Forget it, it's none of our business anyway, we can just wait and watch the show tomorrow."

Yun Ling tucked the quilt in for her and said, "Go to sleep, young lady. I will go and watch over the princess."

The Yikun Palace was indeed in chaos. When Concubine Hua learned that Liu Bin had been found, she was at a loss for a moment. Songzhi was the one who reacted the fastest: "Your Majesty, I will go and invite Concubine Cao to come and ask her to give some advice."

Hua Fei looked at her and said, "Go quickly!"

Songzhi said "Hey", turned around and ran out quickly.

Concubine Hua was restless and paced back and forth: "What should I do? The emperor will definitely be angry with me."

Zhou Ninghai advised her: "Don't worry, Madam. Wait until Concubine Cao comes and see what she says."

Songzhi went to Qixiang Palace to invite Concubine Cao, and told her the general situation on the way to Yiku Palace.

Concubine Cao was also very anxious. After all, it was her idea to frame Shen Meizhuang for a fake pregnancy. If this matter was irreversible, she would be to blame.

But Concubine Cao would not show her panic, she had already started thinking of ideas along the way.
