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

With Hua Fei's words, Lipin felt much more relieved and was no longer so panicked. She talked with Hua Fei for a while, and then took Ruomu back to Qixiang Palace.

This incident did not cause much of a stir. The next morning, when paying her respects to the Queen, Concubine Hua brought up the matter.

"I heard about the incident of Borjigit falling into the water yesterday. I am really angry," Concubine Hua took a sip of tea and continued to talk to the Queen, "The servants in the palace were so lazy that they accidentally spilled osmanthus oil on the ground and did not clean it up in time, so that Borjigit fell into the water and suffered. I have already found out who did it and sent the eunuch to the Ministry of Punishment as a punishment."

"Empress Hua is really swift and decisive." Concubine Qi glanced at Concubine Hua unhappily. "Some of us didn't even know about what happened yesterday, but you've already dealt with it. If you do this, where will the Empress be placed?"

"I am doing this to relieve the Queen's worries." Hua Fei sneered, "Besides, when something like this happens, we must find out the culprit as soon as possible. Otherwise, if there are too many servants like this, won't the lotus pond be filled with masters?"

Upon hearing this, Concubine Li laughed out loud, but after being glared at by Concubine Hua, she quickly stopped laughing.

Xia Dongchun lowered her head, for she was afraid that if she raised her head she would not be able to control her expression.

What Sister Borjigit said was indeed true. I didn’t expect that someone would be dragged out to take the blame so quickly. It’s just a pity for the innocent little eunuch.

"Okay, I know Concubine Hua also has good intentions." The Queen spoke at this time, "But Concubine Hua, are you sure you didn't find the wrong person? After all, although Concubine Borjigit fell into the water, Concubine Xia was also there at the time. This is related to the royal heir, so there must be no mistakes."

"Don't worry, Queen." Concubine Hua always liked to contradict the Queen, even in private, not to mention now in front of all the concubines in the palace. "I have always been cautious and prudent in assisting the affairs of the six palaces. Doesn't the Queen know that?"

The queen and she looked at each other, and neither of them said anything, but the other concubines all saw the tit-for-tat intention.

Finally, the Queen compromised: "Since Hua Fei has found the person who made the mistake on my behalf and has already ordered the punishment, I can't refuse Hua Fei's face. I will do as you say."

"Your Majesty is wise." Concubine Hua had a smug look on her face, as if she had expected this result from the beginning.

In front of all the concubines in the palace, Hua Fei not only saved the Queen's face but also demonstrated her own status and majesty. Her face was filled with pride.

But soon, she was no longer happy.

A few days later, Zhen Huan recovered from her illness.

In Jingren Palace, the Queen and Concubine Qi were talking when Xiao Xiazi arrived.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor is going to take Concubine Wan to the Tangquan Palace. Your Majesty, you should also get ready." Xiao Xiazi bowed with a respectful attitude.

"I understand." The Queen agreed at first, but when Xiao Xiazi was about to leave, she changed her tone and called Xiao Xiazi, "Wait, I have been feeling unwell these past two days, so I am afraid I cannot accompany the Emperor. Please report this to the Emperor."

"Ah?" Xiao Xiazi was stunned for a moment, then replied, "Yes, I know."

After Xiao Xiazi left, Concubine Qi praised: "When the Queen is virtuous, she is really virtuous."

"The noble lady Wan has become favored and the emperor is in high spirits. Why should I go there and disturb his mood?" The queen looked magnanimous, but she couldn't help pinching the flowers she was admiring.

Unfortunately, Concubine Qi didn't see anything and sighed, "I really can't catch up with you."

The queen pulled the corners of her mouth and forced a smile on her face.

But when the news reached Concubine Hua, Lipin and Cao Qinmo regretted it very much. Why did the news come when they were in Yikun Palace?

"Your Majesty took her to Tangquan Palace alone. Did he think she was Yang Yuhuan?" Concubine Hua tried to hold back, but before she could, she smashed a set of tea sets at hand.

Songzhi was startled: "Your Majesty, this is your favorite tea set, it was given to you by the Emperor."

"..." Concubine Hua glanced at Song Zhi in silence, "The Emperor won't blame me, so just say it was an accident."

"Don't be angry, madam. You'll only hurt yourself if you're angry." Cao Qinmo comforted her, "The emperor is just being curious for a while."

"Just a temporary novelty?" Concubine Hua glared at him, "Why doesn't the emperor treat other people like this? Look who else in the palace has been treated like this? Isn't it just Zhen Huan?"

Cao Qinmo lowered her head and dared not speak.

Lipin glanced at Cao Qinmo and said to Hua Fei, "Your Majesty, if Zhen Huan is a sensible person, she will know her limits. If she is not, you can find a reason to teach them some rules in the future. After all, you are the only one who is favored in this palace. With who she is, she is not even worthy of carrying your shoes."

Concubine Hua glared at the two of them and said, "You are useless. No matter how much I support you, you still can't keep the emperor."

Although Concubine Hua had a bad temper, almost all the concubines in the palace were unhappy about this incident.

Concubine Hua said something right: Zhen Huan was the first one in the palace to accompany Yinzhen to the Tangquan Palace alone.

Even Xia Dongchun couldn't help but get angry when he heard the news.

"How capable is Zhen Huan? The Emperor didn't even bring the Empress with him and only took her with him!" Xia Dongchun complained.

Noblewoman Borjigit was still recuperating in bed. She was now leaning back and making small clothes for the baby in Xia Dongchun's belly.

Hearing this, he smiled and advised her: "After all, she has been ill for such a long time, and the emperor has been worried about her all the time. In addition, she has been troubled by Yu Yan, so the emperor may just want to comfort her."

Although he advised Xia Dongchun like this, Borjigit himself felt uncomfortable.

After all, she doesn't have much favor, and having one more person to share the favor is not a good thing for her.

But what Zhen Huan said alone did not count for these things. The most important thing was that the emperor's thoughts were on her, so Lady Borjigit thought it through.

But Xia Dongchun's thinking was not so clear. She was already upset because of the osmanthus oil incident, and now that Zhen Huan was granted a bath in Tangquan Palace, she was even more upset.

Fortunately, there was nobleman Borjigit to talk to her.

"My lord, we caught him, we caught him!" As the two were talking, Qi Ling ran in hurriedly, still shouting "We caught him".

Xia Dongchun stood up suddenly, and Borjigit was frightened, fearing that she would fall down accidentally.

"What did you catch? Why are you in such a hurry?" After confirming that Xia Dongchun had stood firmly, Noble Borjigit looked at Qi Ling.
