The Legend of Zhen Huan: Year after year, we share the spring breeze
Chapter 15: Grand Favor
A month passed in a flash.
During this month, Shen Meizhuang enjoyed exclusive favor, being summoned the most often, and receiving a constant stream of gifts. She was dignified, sensible, and composed, and Yongzheng greatly admired her.
Xianfu Palace is filled with chrysanthemums of various colors, yellow golden dragons soaring into the sky, pink hanging gates, and white auspicious spring colors, making the courtyard look brand new and full of vitality.
Shen Meizhuang looked at the newly changed plaque of the hall name: Cunju Hall, and thought about the emperor's words, and felt a sweet feeling in her heart.
The emperor asked him to learn how to manage the household affairs, which not only shows his respect for his abilities, but also his trust in him.
"My lady, the emperor sent over a few pots of green chrysanthemums." Caiyue came to Shen Meizhuang to report.
Following the sound, Shen Meizhuang looked. The chrysanthemum had thick, green branches and irregularly shaped leaves. Its petals were whorls of petals, concealing the center, a flower resembling the peony. When in bloom, the outer petals were light green, while the central petals were emerald green and curled upward. The heart petals were dark green and enclosed, creating a dense, compact, and oblate corolla. The flat petals, when first opened, were a shimmering, jade-green hue. After exposure to sunlight, the green tinged with yellow, creating a dazzling brilliance. It was a rare treasure in the chrysanthemum family, earning it the nickname "Green Peony."
"Your Excellency Miss Shen, it took us several months to cultivate these green chrysanthemums in the greenhouse and we only got four pots. The Emperor ordered that they all be sent to your palace for your enjoyment." The chief steward of the Imperial Household Department said happily.
"Thank you for delivering it personally, Caiyue." Shen Meizhuang was happy in her heart, but did not show it on her face.
Caiyue stuffed a purse into Huang Guiquan's hand.
"Caixing, take one plate of cakes that the emperor gave as a reward this morning to Concubine Wan, and one plate to Concubine An." Shen Meizhuang didn't care whether Huang Guiquan had left or not, and directly ordered the maid to do the job.
Huang Guiquan's eyes flashed, and he saluted and retreated.
After returning to the Imperial Household Department, he immediately ordered the eunuchs under him to make up the allowances for Suiyuxuan and Yanx Palace, and asked them to pay more attention to the tasks of these two palaces.
In less than half a day, the news that the emperor had rewarded green chrysanthemums spread throughout the six palaces like wings.
The Yikun Palace is a magnificent, splendid, and majestic palace. Its unique architectural style, exquisite carvings, and meticulous decorations are breathtaking. The walls are painted gold, contrasting sharply with the red doors and windows, creating a sense of nobility and elegance. The furniture within the palace is also meticulously crafted, each piece showcasing unparalleled craftsmanship.
The palace was filled with a rich fragrance - Huanyixiang.
Nian Shilan, the owner of Yiku Palace, was furious and ordered the palace servants to move all the potted chrysanthemums in the courtyard.
"Move away, move away. From now on, no more chrysanthemums are allowed to be seen in Yikun Palace."
Back in the palace, Concubine Hua smashed another cup and angrily shouted, "It's not enough that she's already been in bed with the Emperor for three consecutive days. He actually wants her to learn about the affairs of the six harems. Is he trying to challenge me?"
Lipin Fei Yunyan and Cao Guiren Cao Qinmo, who were sitting below, quickly knelt down and saluted, "Your Majesty, please calm down."
Concubine Hua rolled her eyes, pointed at them and shouted, "If you want me to calm down, you better come up with a solution. Otherwise, what can I do to calm down my anger?"
Concubine Li shrank her neck and said nothing. This was not her area of expertise, so she turned her gaze to Cao Qinmo.
Cao Qinmo silently said "idiot teammates" in her heart, stood up and walked over to Concubine Hua: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the Emperor is just curious about Concubine Shen and will forget about her in a few days. As for letting her learn the affairs of the six palaces, that's even simpler. You now hold the power of assisting the six palaces, isn't it to learn from you? She is in your palace, how you want her to learn and what you want her to learn is up to you, isn't it?"
Hua Fei thought for a while, and her anger subsided a lot.
"Moreover, Shen Meizhuang is alone in the palace with no one to rely on. Wan, who is her good friend, often falls ill when frightened or infected. It is obvious that she is timid and cowardly and is not worth worrying about. In this palace, how far can she go by herself?" Concubine Cao said with ulterior motives.
"You are smart, but why don't you get the emperor's favor?" Hua Fei understood the meaning of her words and stroked Cao Guiren's forehead with her cold armor.
Cao Qinmo hurriedly said, "It doesn't matter whether I am favored or not. As long as Your Majesty is favored by the Emperor, you can protect me and Princess Wen Yi."
Nian Shilan was very satisfied with Cao Qinmo's statement. "You are quite sensible. Don't worry, as long as you are loyal to me, I will definitely ensure that you and the princess are safe and prosperous!"
Before Cao Qinmo could express her gratitude, Nian Shilan continued, "However, I'm still angry. You'd better find a way to help me vent my anger!"
After saying that, he looked at Fei Yunyan again and asked, "How long has it been since the Emperor summoned you?"
Fei Yunyan lowered her head silently.
"What good is such a beautiful face if it cannot please the Emperor?"
