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

Chapter 7 Meeting the Emperor Again

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

The emperor angrily threw the memorial and loudly demanded, "You all complain to me about your poverty, but where did all the money go?"

Eunuch Xu from the Jingshifang came in at an inopportune moment again, "Your Majesty, please turn over the cards~"

"No, what are you doing here?"

Eunuch Xu knelt down neatly: "Your Majesty, the time has come."

"Then I'll be happy..." The emperor raised his eyes and glanced at the green card, "Hey, where is Concubine Hua's green card?"

"Your Majesty, Concubine Hua sent someone to tell you this afternoon that she had a sudden headache and was not fit to accompany you, so she asked me to remove the green badge."

"Headache? Concubine Hua has always been in good health, why would she have a headache?"

The emperor found it unbelievable that the always jealous Concubine Hua suddenly withdrew her green card.

"Your Majesty, Imperial Doctor Jiang said that Your Majesty has been overworked recently and has had a cold. In addition, Your Majesty has been missing her family for some time and has been overly worried, so..."

Eunuch Xu thought to himself that Miss Songzhi had given him a very heavy purse in the afternoon. She did not allow him to be cuckolded by other ladies as she had done before, and she only asked him to pass on a few words, so he must perform well.

"Wind evil entering the body?" When the emperor heard this, he thought of the beauty pageant a few days ago. All the etiquette was handled properly, and the servants at all levels did their best to obey the discipline. He also asked them not to waste money. It must have been tiring for Concubine Hua to handle it so well. He couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

"Then I will go and see Concubine Hua. Su Peisheng, prepare your carriage."

In Yikun Palace, Concubine Hua took off her hairpins and rings, washed off her makeup, changed into her nightgown, and was lying on the yellow pear wood carved Arhat couch, flipping through a storybook.

Songzhi was peeling walnuts for Concubine Hua with a small hammer.

Hua Fei watched and hummed a tune, and took the walnuts from the blue and white porcelain plate one by one and ate them, looking very happy.

Songzhi saw that Concubine Hua had not been so happy for a long time. Her current freedom was somewhat similar to the carefree and easy life she had in the Nian Mansion before she got married. She felt even happier.

When seeing something funny, Concubine Hua would complain to Songzhi.

The master and servant were chatting and laughing when Xiao Xiazi's loud voice came from outside the main hall of Yikun Palace:

"The Emperor has arrived."

Hua Fei Songzhi and her servant were both shocked.

Songzhi quickly picked up the small hammer used to crack walnuts, the walnut residue, and the few kernels left by Concubine Hua.

He then picked up the headband from the dressing table and quickly put it on Concubine Hua.

Seeing Songzhi's quick movements, Concubine Hua recalled the time when she had just rescued Songzhi in Nian's mansion. She was also so happy and unrestrained.

However, the emperor's footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Concubine Hua had no time to recall. She quickly calmed her mind, held her forehead, and lay down on the bed pretending to be tired.

"Your servant greets His Majesty." Songzhi calmed herself down and walked to the outer room, bowing to the emperor.

"Get up, where is your master?" The emperor looked inside, but the gauze curtain was drawn and Concubine Hua was nowhere to be seen.

"Your Majesty, the Queen is not feeling well and has gone to bed."

"Since you're asleep, I'll go back." The emperor put his hands behind his back and did not walk into the inner room. He thought that Concubine Hua deliberately took off the green card to attract him over.

Hua Fei, who was lying inside, listened to the noise outside and recalled her past life, when the emperor had seduced her in the same way. At that time, she thought that the emperor's favor was unique.

And in this life, she really hopes that the emperor will leave.

After being reborn, Concubine Hua has not yet figured out how to face the man she once loved all her life.

In this life, Concubine Hua did not come out to greet her.

She thought that the emperor would naturally go to another palace if he couldn't hear any noise.

Unexpectedly, the emperor actually walked in, and Concubine Hua quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.

When the emperor came in, he saw Concubine Hua without any makeup and lying on the bed with a pale face.

She wore a simple black headband on her head, which made Concubine Hua look as pale as paper, and even her lips were bloodless.

The plain face made the emperor feel that Concubine Hua was less gorgeous than usual and more simple.

A short absence is better than a new love. After not seeing her for more than half a month, Yongzheng couldn't take his eyes off her.

If Concubine Hua knew what the emperor was thinking at the moment, she would definitely praise Song Zhi highly, saying that the pearl powder she used just now was a great way to replenish her body.

"What did the doctor say?"

"In reply to the emperor, Imperial Doctor Jiang said that the queen has been overworked in the past few days in assisting the six palaces. She just needs to rest for a few days."

Eunuch Xu from the Jingshifang must have said everything that needed to be said, so Songzhi didn't say anything more.

Saying more would only arouse the emperor's suspicion.

Songzhi stared at the emperor with her eyes fixed on him, thinking that he had no intention of leaving for a while. She was also afraid that her master could not pretend for too long, so she gently called Concubine Hua to get up.

"Young Master, Young Master..." The emperor wanted to raise his hand to stop her, but it was too late.

Concubine Hua opened her sleepy eyes, her gaze slowly focused, reflecting her joy at seeing the Emperor, and a smile appeared on her pale face.

"Your Majesty, why are you here?" Concubine Hua "forced" herself to sit up from the bed.

"I heard you were sick, so I came to see you."

"The emperor hasn't come for a while. I'm afraid he has forgotten about Shilan." Concubine Hua took the opportunity to hug the emperor and rested her head on his shoulder.

"Nonsense, except for you, no one else dares to be so rude in front of me." The emperor put his arm around Concubine Hua's shoulders. "Since you are sick, you should take a good rest. You managed the selection a few days ago without any extravagance and it went so well, which shows that you put in a lot of effort."

"I dare not forget the emperor's instructions. I will pay close attention to all matters, for fear of omissions."

The emperor used the tassel on the jade bead bracelet to touch Hua Fei's nose. He missed his beloved concubine so much after not seeing her for a few days.

As a result, the emperor wanted to stay in Yikun Palace.

Hua Fei declined: "Although it is just a headache, Doctor Jiang said that I have a cold and evil spirit entering my body. I dare not pass my illness on to Your Majesty. Your Majesty should go to another sister tonight."

"Are you driving me away?"

"Of course I want the emperor to stay." Hua Fei showed a charming and naive look. While speaking, she circled Yongzheng's belt with her index finger, making Yongzheng's heart itchy.

"But this concerns the emperor's health, and I dare not act rashly. Concubine Xin is particularly sad after her miscarriage, and the emperor should go and see her."

Seeing that Hua Fei really acted like a virtuous wife, she could not force her to do anything, so she let Hua Fei have a good rest and went to Xin Changzai's palace.

Before leaving, Yongzheng asked Songzhi: "Take good care of your master."

After the emperor left, Concubine Hua breathed a sigh of relief.

In the previous life, Concubine Hua had placed a green card on Concubine Xin, taking away her favor. In this life, she had returned it to her.

In Chuxiu Palace, Xin Changzai spent the long night watching over her, crying alone because of the child she had lost.

When Xin Chang heard Xiao Xiazi announce that the emperor had arrived, she stood up in surprise.

After her miscarriage, the emperor never ignored her and often came to her palace in recent days.

As long as the love is there, having a child is just around the corner.

Xin Changzai was happy to wait on the emperor until he rested.
