The Legend of Zhen Huan: Entering the Palace to Become the Queen Mother

"Rumors are flying in the harem, and the story of ghosts and gods is rampant."

Concubine Hua glanced coldly at the Queen. She really couldn't stand her pretentious attitude.

"It's just rumors. There's nothing to believe in them."

As the emperor's bedside companion, the queen naturally knew that the emperor had always disliked all these weird and strange things happening in the harem.

But saying it is what she should say as a queen, but doing it is another matter.

This good show has been built up for so long, so naturally she has to help add fuel to the fire.

"There are so many stories about gods and ghosts in the Forbidden City. If we really want to figure out the truth of each one, we will never be able to finish it."

"However, if the concubines in the harem are really scared, it might be a good idea to hold a ritual to bring peace of mind to everyone."

The Queen said with a compassionate smile.

"My Queen, this may not be a good idea."

"If we perform this ritual, wouldn't it make everyone believe it?"

Although Concubine Hua had no idea what the Queen was up to, she always liked to go against the Queen and oppose it first.

As for these so-called gods and ghosts, even she didn't believe in them, so how could the queen possibly believe in them?

So there must be something wrong here.

"What Concubine Hua said is not right. This ritual has nothing to do with belief or not. I just hope that this ritual can calm the panic of the people in the harem as soon as possible."

"You know, the emperor will be back in the palace soon. If he sees the six palaces in a panic because of these things, he will definitely be furious."

As soon as the Queen said this, Concubine Hua's expression changed immediately.

She has the power to assist in managing the six palaces. If she really makes a scene in front of the emperor, she will get nothing good. It is better for her to follow the queen's wishes and hold a ritual to calm the matter down as soon as possible.

When the Queen saw some hesitation on Concubine Hua's face, she knew that she would most likely agree to the ritual.

However, it seems that Concubine Hua doesn't particularly believe in ghosts and gods, so this won't do.

"Other things are fine, but this cold palace is filled with yin energy. I don't know how many concubines have died there. We need a magician to perform a proper salvation."

After hearing what the Queen said, Concubine Hua did not feel afraid or guilty as the Queen had expected. Instead, she became more frank.

If there really is a ghost of the Yu family, it would be nice to let a Taoist priest perform a proper ritual to help it rest in peace.

Seeing that Concubine Hua's expression remained unchanged, the Queen frowned slightly, but her face showed no expression.

"In that case, Queen, I will go downstairs and prepare first."

After Hua Fei bowed to the Queen in a very perfunctory manner, she left Kunning Palace arrogantly, waving her handkerchief and twisting her waist, without waiting for the Queen to call her.

"Miss."

Jianqiu looked at Concubine Hua's back with some indignation, but couldn't say much because there were so many people around and everyone was talking, so she could only look at the Queen worriedly.

"No problem, let's go back too."

She is still looking forward to watching the show tonight.

If she remembered correctly, tonight seemed to be Yu's seventh day.

Late night, Jingren Palace.

"Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen, may Her Majesty be blessed with good health and good health."

With the help of Yuhu, Fucha Zhixi stood up and paid her respects to the Queen.

The Queen looked at Fu Cha Zhixi, who was having difficulty performing the ceremony due to her big belly, and nodded with some satisfaction.

"Get up quickly. Your belly is so big now. You should have a good rest in the palace."

The queen said as she stared at Fucha Zhixi's belly with a loving smile.

"Your Highness, I was a little frightened earlier and was unable to come and pay my respects to you. I was already feeling uneasy. Now that I am feeling a little better, I should naturally pay my respects to you according to the rules."

Fu Cha Zhixi smiled faintly and explained.

She came here this time in order to be "frightened" more reasonably and make the scene more seamless.

After all, in the plot, apart from losing Lipin and palace power, Concubine Hua did not suffer any major losses.

Even if she couldn't pull Concubine Hua down this time, she would at least make her bleed a little more.

"No wonder the emperor loves you so much. I also like your well-behaved and sensible personality."

The Queen will naturally not give up her traditional memory of pulling down and stepping on others.

"The other concubines should also learn more from Xiangpin and give birth to children for the emperor as soon as possible."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone around looked intently at Fu Cha Zhixi's belly.

Facing other people's gazes, Fu Cha Zhixi remained calm and simply ignored them all.

After all, she was the only pregnant woman in the palace at the moment, which would naturally arouse everyone's jealousy.

At this moment, thunder and lightning suddenly roared outside, interrupting what Hua Fei was about to say.

A flash of lightning streaked across the sky, and it looked like a heavy rain was about to fall. Coupled with the ghost story that had been widely reported in recent days, the concubines present couldn't help but feel their hearts jump.

Jingpin took the initiative to step forward and said, "Your Majesty, with thunder this loud, it's likely that a heavy thunderstorm will begin soon."

Concubine Li was startled by the sudden thunder and felt inexplicably uneasy.

Counting the days, tonight should be the seventh day since Yu's death. She won't really come back to find me, will she?

Concubine Li couldn't help swallowing, feeling extremely flustered.

"It's getting late, why don't we all go back first."

The queen looked at the weather outside the window and smiled with satisfaction. With such weather, it was worth her deliberately keeping the concubines for a while longer.

Everyone walked to the palace gate.

"Farewell, Madam Hua."

"Xiangpin, it must be hard to be frightened. I heard that you were frightened to the point of having a miscarriage. You are too timid."

Concubine Hua raised her eyes and moved her gaze to Fu Cha Zhixi's belly, her eyes full of jealousy and envy.

"Madam Hua Fei, tonight is the seventh day after the death of that person. You must not mention it again. It would be bad if you get entangled with him."

When Zhen Huan saw Concubine Hua making things difficult for Fu Cha Zhixi, she quickly stepped forward and spoke up.

"Yes, Madam Hua Fei, my sister Xiangpin and I saw that thing with our own eyes in Chengqian Palace at that time, and other people in the harem also saw it."

An Lingrong glanced at Concubine Hua with an unfriendly look, then retracted her gaze the next second and spoke with a frightened look.

"And if there really wasn't a wronged soul, why would the Queen specially invite the master to the palace to perform a ritual, and even have the master go to the cold palace where that person had stayed to pray for his soul to be reborn?"

Shen Meizhuang also spoke up, taking advantage of the Queen's previous ritual.

"Sister Mei is right, but that thing has been scaring people for so many years, so it must be very powerful. I don't know if the magician can suppress it."

When Zhen Huan saw Concubine Hua's indifferent expression, she felt a little disappointed.

However, when he saw that Concubine Li beside him had an extremely ugly expression and looked dazed, he felt relieved.

Even if we can't scare Concubine Hua, it would be a good thing to drag Concubine Li into the water.
