This palace comes back in this life, only to be Nian Shilan

Chapter 144: Cold Face and Kind Heart

Zhen Huan noticed that the Queen stood up, but pretended not to see it.

"I'll go see Concubine Hui." The emperor wanted to name their daughter together with Mei Zhuang. Now that the child is born, Mei Zhuang will probably not be angry with him anymore.

As soon as the emperor stood up, Caiyue knelt before him and reported: "Your Majesty, the young lady is too tired from giving birth and has fallen asleep."

"After giving birth for a whole day, Lady Shen must be exhausted, right?" Concubine Xin always keeps talking.

"Then let her have a good rest. I will come to see her tomorrow." The emperor was very happy to have received a white and tender little cotton jacket.

"As for the name, I will discuss it with Concubine Hui after she wakes up. Hehe."

"Yes, Your Majesty is wise. Congratulations to Your Majesty and to Concubine Hui on the birth of the princess." Concubine Jing and Concubine Hua led all the concubines to bow and congratulate the Emperor.

Everyone seemed to have forgotten that there was a queen standing behind the emperor.

The wet nurse took the princess down to feed her, and the queen quietly left Xianfu Palace and returned to Jingren Palace.

Concubine Xin also returned to Changchun Palace to look after Linglong.

Concubine Hua, Concubine Jing, Zhen Huan and An Lingrong are still staying in the palace.

"I will definitely get to the bottom of what happened today. Concubine Jing, you just need to take good care of Noblewoman Shen and the child." Concubine Hua restrained her expression and said coldly.

After a day's work, everyone was exhausted.

Unexpectedly, the queen escaped unscathed like this.

"Liu Bin's death was definitely not an accident." Zhen Huan said in a low voice.

"Fortunately, Sister Mei was blessed with good fortune and gave birth to a princess safely. I was almost scared to death just now." Although An Lingrong often saw her father's aunt giving birth at home, she had never seen such a dangerous scene.

"Everyone is tired today, let's go back and rest first. I and Zhusheng are here, so you can rest assured." Concubine Jing had been worrying about everything for the whole day, and now she felt like she had survived a calamity.

The four of them sat in silence, Meizhuang slept peacefully in the bedroom. After Wen Shichu confirmed that Shen Meizhuang was fine, he returned to the Imperial Hospital and prescribed medicine for Shen Meizhuang to replenish her depleted body.

Concubine Hua, Zhen Huan and An Lingrong walked out of Xianfu Palace together.

Zhen Huan kept looking back, her heart still hanging in the air.

Concubine Hua didn't know whether she was pregnant or had a child in her previous life after her death. Seeing Zhen Huan was flustered, she said, "If you are worried, just stay with Concubine Hui for a few days."

"Your Majesty is right. This is exactly what I meant." Zhen Huan was worried about not being able to take care of her sister Mei.

She always felt that once she left this door, she and Sister Mei would be separated forever.

"The carriage was frightened today, and the queen was also frightened. Now that Miss Meizhuang has given birth safely, the queen should return to the palace to rest." Songzhi felt sorry for the twists and turns her master had experienced that day.

"How come the queen's carriage was also frightened? My sister Wan and I were following behind and nothing happened." An Lingrong felt strange and looked at Zhen Huan.

During the day, she heard that the horse in front of the carriage that Sister Mei was riding in was frightened and had a miscarriage. An Lingrong thought that only Sister Mei was affected.

Why is Concubine Hua's carriage also like this?

"The imperial horses are well-trained, this shouldn't happen." An Lingrong looked at Zhen Huan with a puzzled look.

Zhen Huan lowered her head and thought: "My carriage is fine."

Concubine Hua had already been suspicious about the horse being frightened, and now that An Lingrong had pointed it out, she no longer hid it.

"I will investigate this matter thoroughly. It is useless to think too much about it now. You should all go back to the palace and rest."

If you say that what happened today was a coincidence, Concubine Hua would not believe it even if she was reborn 180 times.

"I'm afraid that by the time this day has passed, all the limbs that should be severed will have been severed." An Lingrong said bitterly, thinking of Liu Bin's sudden death.

"Any horse that disturbs its master will be executed, but today's incident happened suddenly, and the man may not have had time to clean up the mess. If we act quickly, we may be able to find something."

Concubine Hua was very angry about Liu Bin's sudden death during the day. The child she had raised for so long died so silently.

But seeing that the Queen had been kneeling for the entire afternoon and the Emperor had not paid any attention to her, Concubine Hua realized that Liu Bin's sudden death might not be a bad thing.

Even if Liu Bin was not dead, if he was caught and confronted on the spot, he might not dare to tell the truth.

The emperor might not necessarily want to hear Liu Bin tell the truth.

Liu Bin had to either admit that he was incompetent as a doctor or expose the queen.

This gambler is as shrewd as a ghost. If he really appears before the emperor, he may not really do what he is told.

It's better that she died like this. There will be no evidence. The emperor will always have doubts about this matter and will always be wary of the queen. This is more satisfying than directly sentencing the queen.

"I would like to thank Concubine Hua again for protecting my sister." Zhen Huan bowed to Concubine Hua sincerely.

For the preparations for that ginseng, and for the protectiveness he showed to the Queen when he spoke out against her today.

"What is there to thank me for? It's just that the Queen and I don't get along." Concubine Hua suddenly rolled her eyes at Zhen Huan, turned around and helped Song Zhi walk towards Yikun Palace.

Zhen Huan felt quite embarrassed after thanking so many people.

"Empress Hua is truly cold on the outside but kind on the inside, unlike that..." An Lingrong looked at Concubine Hua's back and revealed an admiring smile.

"Alright, be careful of ears. You should return to the palace soon. I'll ask Huanbi to go to Suiyuxuan to pack some clothes. I'll stay with Sister Mei for a few days."

"Then my sister will come to Xianfu Palace to visit sister Mei tomorrow."

An Lingrong said goodbye to Zhen Huan, but did not go back to the Yanxi Palace directly.

"My lady, aren't we going back to the palace?" Today, An Lingrong only brought Baoque out with her, leaving Baojuan in the palace to pack her luggage.

"Baoque, where do you think all the imperial horses in the palace are?" Although An Lingrong had been in the palace for more than a year, she was still not familiar with various places in the palace.

"The imperial horses should all be in the Imperial Stables, and I have never been there. My Lord, do you suspect there is something wrong with the horses?"

"Maybe I'm too suspicious. Never mind. I'm tired today. Let's go back first."

Just as An Lingrong was about to leave, she noticed a few inconspicuous grass roots thrown on the ground on the long street.

An Lingrong asked Baoque to pick it up, and she held it to her nose and sniffed it carefully, but felt that there was nothing special about it.

I just wrapped it up in a handkerchief. Maybe I would get some results if I asked Wei Lin in a few days. It's always a good idea to be more careful.
