She always plays cards out of the ordinary

Chapter 99: Legend of Zhen Huan 44

"Everything in this palace has rules. Jinxi's stay in Suiyuxuan is against the rules, so we should just put her in a place with rules."

Zhen Huan didn't quite understand at first, but then when she saw the smile on Jin Xi's face, she realized that according to the rules, Jin Xi should not stay in Sui Yuxuan, but as long as she was employed anywhere in the palace, then Jin Xi would not have to leave the palace.

"Thank you, Concubine Duan, for thinking of me."

Concubine Duan seemed to be confused and said, "I just told you some palace rules. It's Concubine Wan's ability to come up with a solution. Why should she thank me?"

Zhen Huan achieved her goal for the day, and she felt much more relaxed. She sat in Yanqing Palace for a long time before leaving.

Concubine Duan watched Zhen Huan and others leave with a smile on her face. No one knew what she was thinking.

After returning to the Suiyu Pavilion, Zhen Huan called out to Huanbi, "Huanbi, go and invite Sister Mei over and tell her that I have something to discuss with you."

"Hey, slave, let's go right away."

Huanbi had a very good impression of Shen Meizhuang. Although An Lingrong often came, Huanbi always felt that there were many things hidden in An Lingrong's eyes.

Therefore, Huanbi's favorite place to go was Xianfu Palace. When Shen Meizhuang saw Huanbi coming to invite her, she brought Caixing and Caiyue over without saying a word.

As soon as Shen Meizhuang sat down, she asked, "What's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry? I was just following Concubine Jing to learn how to read the account book, and my eyes are blurry."

Zhen Huan asked with some amusement, "Why don't you just not watch it? Just have fun in the house?"

Shen Meizhuang immediately shook her head. "How can that be possible? The emperor is willing to give me a chance to learn how to handle palace affairs. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As long as I can get started and handle things well, we will have a place in this palace."

"Then why are you complaining? Others can't do anything about it even if they want to."

Zhen Huan naturally knew that Shen Meizhuang was just talking. The power in the palace was not something that ordinary people could get involved in. Without the emperor's order, how could one get hold of the power in the palace?

Shen Meizhuang took a sip of hot tea and said unhappily, "I only said this to you. I dare not say it to others, otherwise it will make people hate me. By the way, what's the matter with you asking me to come here?"

Zhen Huan then told Jin Xi about her situation. "The idea of Concubine Duan is very suitable for Jin Xi, so I wanted to ask you, is there any place that can be arranged for Jin Xi now?"

Shen Meizhuang was a little hesitant when she heard this, "Huan'er, I have just started to work in the palace. The emperor wanted me to learn first, so now I am just helping Concubine Jing. I don't have any right to arrange people."

Zhen Huan thought of the Concubine Zhao that the emperor had mentioned before, "Where is Concubine Zhao? Didn't the emperor ask you three to handle palace affairs?"

Shen Meizhuang shook her head in amusement, "What are you thinking? Concubine Zhao is still pregnant, how could she take over the palace affairs at this time? She will naturally take over these matters after she gives birth to the child."

Zhen Huan sighed, "It's really different to have a child in this palace."

Shen Meizhuang saw the envy in Zhen Huan's eyes and teased her, "Then you have to work harder. Who knows, you might get it soon."

Zhen Huan knows her own business. Her behavior last night angered the emperor, and she probably won't be able to see the emperor for a while.

But Shen Meizhuang is different. She has been favored since she entered the palace. Although she is slightly inferior to Zhaopin, she has also spent a lot of time in the emperor's bedchamber. Instead of thinking about yourself, you might as well look at Shen Meizhuang.

Thinking of this, Zhen Huan dismissed her attendants and glanced at Shen Meizhuang's belly. "Sister Mei, is there any movement in your belly now?"

Although Shen Meizhuang was a little shy, she still answered in a low voice, "Not yet, I'm also anxious. You said that Zhaopin and I were both favored at the same time, so why is my belly so disappointing?"

Zhen Huan didn't expect that by asking this question, she would actually bring out Shen Meizhuang's anxiety.

I quickly comforted her, "Sister Mei, don't worry, maybe it's just not the right time."

"I don't know when this fate will come. Oh! I'm ready to drink the pregnancy medicine."

When Shen Meizhuang said this, she thought of the lucky Concubine Zhao.

Zhen Huan did not interrupt Shen Meiyu's thoughts, she was also thinking about how to arrange for Jing Xi.

Suddenly Zhen Huan thought of something. Since Concubine Zhao was not here, wouldn’t Concubine Jing be the perfect choice?

Zhen Huan waited for Shen Meizhuang to come back to her senses before carefully asking, "Sister Mei, can you ask Jingpin for help? Zhaopin happens to be too busy to take care of these things right now, so it should be easy to arrange it at this time."

Shen Meizhuang was somewhat reluctant. She and Jingpin were good friends, but Jingpin had already helped her a lot. If she asked her for help again, she didn't know how to repay Jingpin's kindness.

It was just that Huan'er rarely spoke up, and it was not easy for her to refuse, but, "Huan'er, do you know that if Jinxi is assigned to another place, then she will no longer belong to you, and you will not be able to control her?

Have you considered carefully whether she has any evidence against you? Don't be kind and leave loopholes in the palace."

Zhen Huan had never doubted Jing Xi's sincerity before, because Jing Xi had been serving her wholeheartedly since she met her. But when she thought of what Shen Meizhuang had just said, Zhen Huan suddenly came to her senses.

"Sister Mei, I don't have any leverage over her, but it's a pity that Jinxi is gone. After all, she was my right-hand man."

Seeing this, Shen Meizhuang asked, "Then will you still keep her in the palace?"

Zhen Huan thought about it and nodded, "Let her stay! After all, I am her master. Although she can't give me advice after she leaves Sui Yu Xuan, if she goes to other palaces, she can also be my spy. And the most important thing is that Jing Xi is not a heartless person."

Over there, Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan were discussing whether Jingxi should stay or go, while Zhaopin, whom she envied, was thinking about how to become the queen.

Judging from what happened that night, the emperor must have checked the harem, otherwise he would not have been so disrespectful to the queen.

It is difficult to list all the things the Queen has done. If the Emperor still wants to have children, the Queen is an issue he cannot avoid.

Therefore, the subsequent removal of the firewood from under the cauldron has an explanation. This is an indiscriminate attack, the goal is to release all the chess pieces buried by the empress, the empress dowager and even all the concubines in the harem out of the palace and break their independent forces. Although there may still be some fish that slip through the net, but after this cleanup, the palace will definitely be much safer.

But even so, Fucha Xinyun was not going to go out. She just wanted to wait until the baby was born safely. As long as her baby was a prince, she would be sure to take the throne of queen.

Yulan came over carefully, carrying today's bird's nest, "My lady, what are you thinking about?"

Fu Cha Xinyun thought of Yulan's cautious nature, so she dismissed the other servants in the room and left Yulan alone.

“Yulan, have you noticed that there are very few concubines with full military flags in the palace now?”
