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

When Xia Dongchun went in, the queen was practicing calligraphy.

When Xia Dongchun saw her, she bowed first and said, "I pay my respects to Her Majesty the Queen. May Her Majesty be blessed with good health."

The queen put down the pen in her hand and looked up at her: "I heard Huichun say that you came. At first I thought she was talking nonsense. You are pregnant, but you have been so diligent. I really don't know how to praise you."

"Your Majesty, you are too polite. Serving you with diligence and respect is my concubine's duty. I always keep it in mind and never forget it." Xia Dongchun spoke very beautifully in such a situation. After all, although she did not learn the rules well before entering the palace in her previous life, she had mastered how to flatter the empress.

Now that things have happened again, Xia Dongchun has not forgotten all of this.

These words came in handy.

The queen smiled and said, "Please sit down. You are the sweetest person. Every time I talk to you, I feel much better."

"Then I will come and talk to Her Majesty the Queen more often in the future." Xia Dongchun quickly responded.

The Queen was very satisfied with her attitude, but... the Queen's gaze fell on Xia Dongchun's abdomen, and her eyes darkened a little. Unfortunately, Xia Dongchun was careless and did not notice it.

It wasn't just Concubine Li who was dissatisfied with the baby in Xia Dongchun's belly.

Xia Dongchun sat down, and the Queen asked her again: "Last night, Concubine Shen fell into the water. She should have woken up this morning. Have you visited Concubine Shen?"

Xia Dongchun nodded: "I just went to Xianfu Palace with Sister Borjigit to see Concubine Shen. Concubine Shen just woke up not long ago, her face is still pale, and she looks so pitiful."

The Queen sighed, her face full of worry: "Speaking of this Concubine Shen, she is really pitiful. She just came out of Yikun Palace in the middle of the night and wanted to feed the fish, but she ended up falling into the water."

The Queen's words were somewhat suggestive, but Xia Dongchun pretended not to understand.

Anyway, with the previous experience, the queen would just think that she was too stupid and would not have any other thoughts.

This is what Xia Dongchun hopes to see.

Although she respected the queen, she did not want to become a pawn in the queen's hands that could be manipulated at will and eventually abandoned.

Sure enough, seeing that Xia Dongchun had no reaction, the queen sighed inwardly. She knew that although Xia was respectful to her and willing to obey, she always ignored her hints.

The Queen had thought that Xia Dongchun was pretending not to understand, but every time she met Xia Dongchun's gaze and looked at her expression, the Queen felt that she really didn't understand.

So in the subsequent conversation, the queen did not bother to hint anything to her and only said some insignificant polite words.

After sitting for about a stick of incense, the queen used the excuse of being tired and asked Xia Dongchun to leave.

Xia Dongchun took Yun Ling out of Jingren Palace. She looked up at the bright sun, said nothing, and went straight back to Yanxi Palace.

After returning to the Yanxi Palace, Xia Dongchun passed by An Lingrong's room and found that An Lingrong was still in the room, so she stopped.

"Some people can sit still and not even take a look at their sisters who fell into the water and became unconscious." Xia Dongchun said sarcastically, "They say they are as close as sisters. But they are not even as close as an acquaintance like me."

Yun Ling rarely stopped Xia Dongchun. After all, in this situation, it was impossible for Concubine Hua to do anything to Xia Dongchun just because she had a quarrel with An Lingrong.

An Lingrong's door was open, so she could hear Xia Dongchun's words clearly.

After hearing what Xia Dongchun said, she felt a little flustered.

It’s not because she didn’t go to see Shen Meizhuang, but because she didn’t go to see her, but Xia Dongchun did.

What should I do? Will Sister Mei think that Xia Dongchun is more suitable to be their sister? Will she have any grudge against her?

An Lingrong didn't know what to do.

Bao Juan could probably guess what she was thinking from her expression. She pursed her lips, glanced outside the door, bent down and whispered in her ear, "My lady, don't take Concubine Xia's words to heart. You didn't go to see Concubine Shen because you haven't recovered yet and you're afraid of passing on your illness to Concubine Shen."

In fact, both the master and the servant knew how much truth there was in this statement.

Xia Dongchun didn't expect An Lingrong to refute her, so she added, "Oh, Yunling, have you seen how fickle people are? Remember, we can't be such mean people in the future. If something happens to our sisters, we have to go and see them no matter what."

Yun Ling couldn't help but laughed while covering her mouth when she heard Xia Dongchun's sarcastic tone. After laughing, she said to Xia Dongchun, "Okay, my lady, just say a few words. You are tired, why waste your breath here? You should go back to your room and rest. It's almost time for the imperial physician to check your pulse."

Xia Dongchun said what she wanted to say, and even though An Lingrong was angry, she was satisfied and followed Yun Ling back obediently.

After hearing their footsteps going away, An Lingrong said with red eyes: "Baojuan, what should I do? Do you think Sister Mei will blame me for not going to see her? And Sister Wan... Sister Wan and Sister Mei are so close, will they blame me too?"

Bao Juan knew she was going to think this way, and quickly comforted her: "No, my lady, Shen Guiren and Wan Guiren must also know that you are not in good health, and they are so smart, how could they blame you?"

"But...but what if Concubine Xia said something to provoke her?" An Lingrong did not ignore the meaning of Xia Dongchun's words just now - it was obvious that Xia Dongchun had already visited Shen Meiyu.

"My lady, you, Concubine Shen, and Concubine Wan are good sisters. Concubine Xia and them are just trying to save face. How could they trust Concubine Xia instead of you? Don't worry. If it really doesn't work, I can accompany you to Xianfu Palace to see Concubine Shen, right?"

An Lingrong said nothing, silently looking at the corner of the yard outside the house. The purse in her hand was half embroidered. She had originally intended to give it to Zhen Huan, but now...

An Lingrong looked down at the purse in her hand and said to Baojuan, "Cut out some of the remaining smoke gauze. I want to make another purse for Sister Mei. When Sister Mei recovers, I will personally deliver it to her. It is not appropriate to go now. Concubine Xia has just returned. If we go right now, wouldn't it be too deliberate? It is better to wait until Sister Mei recovers before going."

Baojuan was relieved to see that she no longer complained about herself, and quickly agreed. What a joke! Now, as long as An Lingrong could figure it out, she would be satisfied.

Otherwise, sometimes it is really impossible to persuade her, Baojuan thought. Sometimes she didn't quite understand what was in An Lingrong's mind, but An Lingrong was her master, so even if she didn't understand, she could only pretend to understand.

Otherwise, wouldn’t life be even more unbearable?
