She always plays cards out of the ordinary

Chapter 58: Legend of Zhen Huan 3

Concubine Hua was so frightened that she opened her eyes immediately, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Yinzhen looked at the strange woman in front of him and wondered who had sent her to his bed.

At this time, Su Peisheng outside the door was also frightened and called out carefully, "Does the emperor have any instructions?"

When Yinzhen heard Su Peisheng's shout, he tentatively called out, "Su Peisheng! Come in!"

As expected, Su Peisheng responded and walked in immediately. "Your servant greets His Majesty and Empress Hua."

Yinzhen was a little confused. When did he have a concubine named Hua? And Su Peisheng didn't look right.

Su Peisheng's words made Yinzhen even more certain that something was wrong. He calmly ate a small amount of breakfast served by Concubine Hua, and returned to the Yangxin Palace despite Concubine Hua's attempts to stop him.

Not to mention Concubine Hua's reaction after Yinzhen left, it took Yinzhen some time to return to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity to confirm that he must have come to a different world.

The Buddhist scriptures say that one flower is a world, one leaf is a bodhi, and that we have come to one of the countless worlds by chance.

After experiencing the experience of his soul wandering alone, Yinzhen accepted this situation easily.

After figuring out his situation, Yinzhen did not enter the harem for several days until the new concubines came to pay their respects collectively.

Fucha Xinyun looked at the clothes in front of her and frowned in displeasure, "I'm going to pay my respects to the queen, not to attend a funeral. This dress is too plain."

Zhitao replied carefully, "My lady, didn't you say that when we go to meet the Queen, we shouldn't dress too formally, so as not to cause gossip and trouble?"

Fu Cha Xinyun sighed, "It can't be too grand, but it can't be too plain either. If someone doesn't know, they might think I'm being disrespectful to the Queen."

Fortunately, Yutong took out a green dress and said, "My lady, how about this one? This green color looks fresh and elegant, and not too ostentatious."

Fu Cha Xinyun took a quick glance and, since it was getting late, she said, "Let's take this one!"

Since today was the first day of paying respects, Fucha Xinyun got up early, washed, dressed, and prepared to hurry to Jingren Palace.

When she left, Concubine Xia was still packing, but An Da Ying had already dressed up. When the two of them arrived at Jingren Palace, some people were already waiting there.

Perhaps the newlyweds came early in order to leave a good impression, and the elderly wanted to see what the newcomers were like and did not arrive late either. As a result, it didn't take long before the huge Jingren Palace was full.

Only the first seat below the Queen was left empty. Fucha Xinyun knew at a glance that it was Concubine Hua's seat. Seeing that the Queen was drinking tea leisurely, Fucha Xinyun naturally pretended not to know.

When she had finished half of her tea, she heard a commotion outside, followed by a series of footsteps, "Empress Hua is here!"

Hua Fei completely ignored the time of the greeting and walked in slowly, "Isn't it too late for me?"

Whether it was late or not was naturally up to Concubine Hua to decide. Fu Cha Xinyun complained in her heart, and obediently followed everyone else to pay respects to Concubine Hua.

Perhaps wanting to give the newcomer a heads-up, Hua Fei ignored the people who came to pay their respects and instead started chatting with the Queen about jadeite. Since Yinzhen hadn't come to the harem in the past few days, Hua Fei had no way to show off, but she had a strong personality, and even so, she wanted to let everyone know that she was not someone to be trifled with.

So there were words that used jade to satirize the queen's old age and fading beauty. Although the queen responded with the Dongzhu, Fucha Xinyun still felt the power of Concubine Hua.

But Fu Cha Xinyun was becoming more and more confused. Hua Fei, Queen, and Xia Dongchun, why did they sound so familiar, as if she had heard them somewhere before.

Before she could come up with anything, everyone finally heard the Queen's voice pleading for them, "Let the sisters get up first!"

Perhaps the show of power was enough, Concubine Hua also spoke up, "I was so busy talking to the Queen that I forgot that you were all still performing the formalities. So please stand up."

"Thank you, Empress Hua!"

As soon as Fu Cha Xinyun stood up, she heard Xia Changzai beside her complaining in a low voice, "This Hua Fei is coming so aggressively, and this is in Jingren Palace. I wonder who she is doing this for?"

The hall was quiet to begin with, and Xia Dongchun's voice frightened Fu Cha Xinyun so much that she secretly complained, wondering why she stood with this fool? Otherwise, others would think she was also an accomplice of Xia Changzai.

Fu Cha Xinyun couldn't help but feel a little regretful. She didn't say anything when Concubine Shen stood in front of her just now. After all, she was also a noble lady, and according to the rules, she should stand shoulder to shoulder with Concubine Shen. But when she saw the maid from the Queen's palace leading Zhen Huan to the front, she didn't say anything.

Alas! I still blame myself for not having enough experience in palace fighting. I wasted all those TV dramas I watched in my previous life. When I go back today, I have to recall the details of those palace fighting dramas, otherwise I won’t know how I died.

The purpose of Concubine Hua coming here today was to show off her power to the newcomer. The initial salute was just an appetizer. But before she could make a move, Xia Dongchun jumped out on her own.

Concubine Hua glanced at Xia Dongchun nonchalantly, "Who is Concubine Xia? I heard she's very special. Come out and let me see her!"

Everyone knew that Concubine Hua was a troublemaker, and being called by her was definitely not a good thing, but Xia Dongchun obviously didn't realize this. She replied happily, "To answer your majesty, I am the concubine Xia."

Concubine Hua looked her up and down for a few times, but did not call out, "Mrs. Xia is dressed quite luxuriously today. I guess the material she is wearing is not ordinary, right?"

Xia Dongchun thought of what the teaching nanny had said before, that besides the emperor, the empress was the most powerful person in the palace, so she must curry favor with the empress.

This was a good opportunity to give the Queen a good face in front of Concubine Hua. Xia Dongchun thought about it and felt that it was a good idea. She glanced at the Queen and said with a hint of boasting, "This is the material that the Queen gave to me. How could it be bad? That's why I specially asked someone to wear it when I pay my respects to the Queen today."

After Xia Dongchun finished speaking, she smiled at the Queen in a flattering manner. Fu Cha Xinyun closed her eyes speechlessly, her stupidity syndrome coming on. What should she do?

Concubine Hua was so angry that she laughed. There hadn't been such a fool in the palace for a long time. It was really rare.

"Tsk... I want to congratulate the Queen. The Emperor has just ascended the throne and you have gained such a confidant. It is really a cause for celebration. You must appreciate Concubine Xia. Such a rare temperament is rare."

The sarcasm in Hua Fei's words was about to overflow, and no one present dared to say a word.

Concubine Qi couldn't stand Concubine Hua's arrogance, so she pouted and said, "Since Concubine Hua likes Concubine Xia so much, why not move Concubine Xia to Yikun Palace and let her serve you well. After all, you are not young anymore, and Concubine Xia can help you share your worries occasionally."
