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

“A little.”

Fu Cha Zhixi suppressed his emotions, looked at Fang Qiu with a faint smile and said.

"Then let them serve the food."

Fang Qiu spoke up.

"it is good."

Soon, news spread from the palace that Concubine Wan had been seriously frightened and fell ill, unable to meet the emperor.

"My lady, since Concubine Wan is unable to see the emperor, does that mean that the first person to sleep with him will definitely be you?"

Yuhu said with some excitement as she looked at Fucha Zhixi who was drawing her eyebrows.

"It depends on the emperor's wishes. I can't decide."

Fu Cha Zhixi put down his eyebrow pencil and looked carefully at the woman in the mirror.

The thin and long eyebrows make the woman look even more delicate, and she looks so delicate that one can't help but want to hold her in the palm of their hands and love her.

If nothing unexpected happens, the emperor should turn over his own card today.

Although she was somewhat annoyed about being picked by others, she had no way to break free due to the times she lived in and could only choose to obey.

Night, Jingren Palace.

"Your Majesty, it's time for the new concubines to sleep with you today. Does Your Majesty have a favorite candidate?"

The Queen looked at the Emperor tentatively and asked.

Hearing the Queen's question, the Emperor's mind unexpectedly popped up the extraordinary face he saw on the day of the selection.

But he soon thought of Wan Chang's face, which was very similar to his beloved wife.

"Is the Queen trying to guess the Emperor's intentions?"

The emperor couldn't help but frown and asked in an ambiguous tone.

"I dare not speculate on your Majesty's intentions."

"Please express it clearly, Your Majesty."

As she spoke, the queen waved to the eunuchs who were holding green cards, signaling them to bring the green cards over.

"Your Majesty, please turn over the sign."

The young eunuchs held trays with green cards on them and knelt respectfully before the emperor.

"Why isn't the Wan Changzai sign here?"

The emperor took a quick glance and quickly saw the green card with the words "Xiang Guiren" written on it, but then he looked at the other green cards and found that there was no green card for Wan Changzai.

"In reply to the emperor, the Imperial Hospital reported today that Concubine Wan was frightened and fell ill, so she cannot see the emperor."

The eunuch glanced at the queen before answering.

"Frightened?"

"What happened that frightened her right after entering the palace?"

The emperor asked with some confusion but looked at the queen with a questioning look.

"Reporting to the emperor, Wan Changzai, Shen Guiren and An Da Ying were on their way back from paying respects when they happened to see what happened to Fu Zi, so they were frightened."

The Queen did not directly ask what happened to Fukuko, but spoke of the matter in an ambiguous tone.

Letting the emperor ask proactively will actually make a greater impression on him.

Sure enough, the emperor frowned, looked at the queen and asked.

"Who is Fuzi? What happened? Why did she scare Wan Changzai?"

"Fuzi was a maid in Concubine Hua's palace. She fell into a well and drowned for no apparent reason. Unexpectedly, Concubine Wan saw her and frightened her."

"It's a pity for Wan Changzai. I guess he has never seen these things when he was at home."

The queen spoke in a feigned affection.

The more pitiful she made Concubine Wan sound, the more serious the impact would be on Concubine Hua.

After all, how could a little palace maid compare to Wan Changzai, who looked like her elder sister?

"Unclear?"

"So Queen, you still haven't figured out what's going on?"

The emperor could naturally understand the meaning of the queen's words, but he was not interested in the truth of the matter. He just didn't want such a thing to become a hot topic in the harem and make everyone in the six palaces uneasy.

So he questioned the queen in a slightly harsh tone.

If such a thing was not investigated in time and the impact was not minimized, it would be the fault of the Queen, the mistress of the six palaces.

"I asked Jiang Fuhai to go to Concubine Hua's palace and ask. Concubine Hua said that Fuzi ran away in anger because she was scolded a few times."

"As for what happened to the other party later, she didn't know."

Seeing a hint of anger between the emperor's brows, the queen quickly began to explain.

"So I won't ask any more questions. I have already arranged for people to restrain the people below from talking nonsense and spreading rumors. I think the matter will definitely not get out of hand."

The queen knew her partner very well, and she knew that the partner was blaming her for her dereliction of duty.

So she quickly told him the results of her handling of the matter.

"After all, palace maids are from the Eight Banners. Although they are not as noble as the masters in the palace, they cannot be punished. You should investigate this matter carefully."

The emperor frowned slightly and spoke to the queen.

Although that's what he said, as an emperor, these trivial matters are really not worth his worrying about.

Even if we know that it was Concubine Hua who did it, what can we do?

At this moment, he would not punish Concubine Hua for such a small matter. After all, he still needed Nian Gengyao to work for him, so he would naturally not disappoint the other party.

"The concubine knows."

The queen smiled and nodded in agreement.

Of course she knew that the Emperor would not punish Concubine Hua for such a small matter, but at least she let the Emperor know that Concubine Hua was taking human life lightly. As long as she could make the Emperor feel a little unhappy with Concubine Hua, this move would not be a loss.

"Since Consort Wan is ill, I will go and see Consort Xiang."

The emperor reached out for the green card with the words "Xiang Guiren" written in large letters.

He felt an indescribable sense of relief in his heart. After all, he had been a little confused about who to choose to sleep with him on the first day.

One is Concubine Wan, who looks very similar to his beloved wife, but the other is Concubine Xiang, who is like the Queen Mother of the West.

But now he was relieved of this dilemma, and a look of satisfaction appeared on the emperor's face.

Cheng Qiangong

"Congratulations, Lady Xiang."

The eunuch in charge came in with his men, and as soon as he entered the room he immediately smiled and congratulated.

"The Emperor has turned over your name card today. You are the first of the new concubines to enter the palace."

The eunuch's face was almost wrinkled with laughter, and he looked as if he could write the word "flattering" on his face.

"Thank you, father-in-law."

Fu Cha Zhixi put down the book in his hand, smiled faintly and spoke.

There wasn't much emotion on his face, but he felt a little nervous and uneasy in his heart.

After all, he was her first husband in two lifetimes, although he was not just her husband.
