Xia Dongchun from Legend of Zhen Huan: I want to live till the last episode

"Of course not everyone has the power to assist in managing the six palaces," Concubine Qi was not afraid of Concubine Hua and immediately replied, "But Yu Ying does not seem to understand this principle. Concubine Hua can just teach Yu Ying a lesson. Why involve me?"

Concubine Hua chuckled: "I know who to discipline, so Concubine Qi doesn't need to worry about it. Concubine Qi just needs to take care of the Third Prince."

"You!" Concubine Qi became anxious when the Third Prince was mentioned.

At this moment, Jiang Fuhai's voice came: "The Queen is back in the palace——!"

Then the queen came in, all the concubines stood up and saluted, and the queen took a seat.

Xia Dongchun glanced at Yu Ying'er secretly, and seeing that she still looked not worried at all, he sneered in his heart but did not show it on his face. Instead, he turned around and looked at the queen seriously, ready to listen to what the final outcome of this matter would be.

The Queen did not rush to speak, but first glanced around slowly, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea before speaking: "I'm sure everyone has heard about what happened last night. The nature of this matter is really bad. When I went there, the Queen Mother was very angry."

Yu Ying'er raised her head suddenly, and then she started to panic.

Concubine Qi sneered, and when the Queen looked at her, she quickly shut her mouth and dared not make a sound.

"Promise Yu, you have taken advantage of your favor and become arrogant, you have disregarded palace rules, and you don't know the difference between superiors and inferiors... I am conveying the Empress Dowager's decree to strip Yu of her title of 'Miaoyin Lady', deduct her salary for one month, and confine her to Zhongcui Palace for half a month as a punishment." The Empress said this with great authority. "In addition, Xin Changzai has been wronged innocently. The Empress Dowager said that Xin Changzai should be released from the Ministry of Punishment and comforted."

"Yes, the Queen Mother is wise, and the Queen is wise." Everyone said in unison, only Yu Ying'er was dumbfounded.

"The rest of the people should also take this as a warning. This kind of thing must never happen again!" The queen added, as if giving a warning or an admonition.

"We, the queen, will follow her instructions and will never dare to violate them." Everyone agreed in unison again.

"Okay, you all leave. I promise you can stay." The Queen's gaze fell on Yu Ying'er without a trace of warmth. Only then did Yu Ying'er feel afraid.

"Empress, I was just planning to ask Yu to go to Yikun Palace. Your Majesty has just returned from the Queen Mother and must be tired. Let me take care of the rest." Concubine Hua stood up, but had no intention of leaving. Instead, she turned her head slightly and met the Empress's gaze.

The rest of the people tactfully retreated first to avoid being affected.

After everyone left, the Queen said softly, "Oh," "Sister, do you mean to take Yu Ying to the Yikun Palace for punishment?"

"I was just thinking that this matter was not a big deal, but it has alarmed the Queen Mother. It is really not appropriate to trouble the Queen any further." Although Concubine Hua said this, there was no respect in her tone, but instead revealed a determination to succeed.

It seems that no matter whether the Queen agrees or not, she is going to take Yu Ying'er away today.

It’s not that she really wanted to protect Yu Ying’er, she just wanted to piss off the old woman, the Queen.

The Queen stared at Concubine Hua for a long while before finally speaking: "Nothing in the palace is trivial, not to mention that Yu promised to make such a big mistake. Concubine Hua, are you really determined to do this?"

Hua Fei raised her hand and stroked her hair full of pearls and jade, curled her lips slightly, and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Why? Your Majesty, the Queen, do you not believe in my ability to help manage the six palaces?"

The two men stared at each other, and one could hear a pin drop in the hall. The palace maids and eunuchs all lowered their heads, watching their noses and their hearts. No one dared to breathe, for fear that the fight between the two masters would affect them.

After a long while, the Queen seemed to compromise: "Well, since you insist on doing this, I will hand over the rest to you. I hope you can obey the Queen Mother's order and give her and me a satisfactory explanation."

"Yes, I'll take my leave." After hearing this, Concubine Hua turned around and left with her people without stopping at all.

It seemed as if it was certain from the beginning that the queen would compromise in the end.

After leaving Jingren Palace, Concubine Hua sat in the sedan chair, with Songzhi accompanying her.

Yu Ying'er, with her personal maid, followed on the other side of Concubine Hua.

Hua Fei propped her head up with one hand, feeling annoyed: "You are too careless in doing things. Once you gain power, you become so rampant. No wonder they caught you!"

Yu Ying'er shrank her neck like a quail in front of Concubine Hua. She didn't dare to refute even when she was scolded. She just whispered in defense: "I really didn't expect that this would get to the Empress Dowager. It's all my fault. I'm sorry for causing trouble to you, Your Majesty."

"That's good to know." Concubine Hua raised her eyelids and glanced at her. "If I hadn't managed to get you out from the Queen today, who knows how much more you would have been fined."

Fortunately, Yu Ying'er was also very sensible. As soon as Concubine Hua finished speaking, she quickly expressed her loyalty: "Your Majesty's grace, this concubine will never forget it. I will die a thousand times to repay your kindness!"

"It's rare that you have such a heart," Concubine Hua retracted her gaze, "but I can't help you with the deprivation of your title and confinement, after all, it's the Queen Mother's decree."

"I understand this, Your Majesty, don't worry." Yu Ying'er responded quickly.

"Okay, go back to your own palace." Concubine Hua had never really planned to take Yu Ying'er to her own palace. Now that she had explained everything she wanted to say, she sent her back to Zhongcui Palace.

"Yes, the concubine is retiring."

At this time, Xia Dongchun was in Zhongcui Palace.

"I'm afraid my sister's place is the only one that is still quiet in this palace." Xia Dongchun and Noble Lady Borjigit were sitting together and talking.

With Xia Dongchun's help, Mr. Borjigit's illness improved a lot and he was about to recover.

Nobleman Borjigit has a gentle temperament, which is completely opposite to Xia Dongchun, but perhaps precisely because of this, the two of them complement each other and get along better.

Originally, Xia Dongchun was only helping Mr. Borjigit out of sympathy, but after spending some time together, their relationship really improved.

"You, must have gone out to watch the fun, right?" Nobleman Borjigit pointed out Xia Dongchun's intention.

Xia Dongchun did not hide it: "It's so lively, but it's a pity that you are still sick and can't go to watch it together."

"It seems to me that you and Yu Da Ying don't seem to have much in common. Why do you hate her so much?" Nobleman Borjigit was a little puzzled.

Xia Dongchun curled her lips, her expression was very vivid, the word "disdain" was almost written on her face: "But she is so arrogant and wants to cause trouble for me. On the palace road that day, she even wanted me to give way to her. This is enough for me to hate her."

"What happened on the palace road? Why haven't I heard you tell me about it?" Noblewoman Borjigit thought so in his mind and asked.
