Yixiu is reborn, fights against her elder sister, and becomes the queen mother
Chapter 188 Huanbi's Disloyalty
The emperor looked at Huanbi's beautiful face and asked meaningfully: "What's your name? I think you look a bit like your mistress."
Huanbi was delighted. She lowered her head and said shyly, "Your Majesty, my name is Huanbi, and I am the young lady's maidservant who came with her as a dowry. I think it's because I grew up with the young lady, so we do have some similarities in appearance."
After hearing this, the emperor became even more interested in Huanbi.
He leaned over and actually grabbed Huanbi's hand.
"You are not worthy of being a slave in the palace. Su Peisheng, pass on my decree to promote Huanbi to an official lady. Tonight..."
The emperor's voice stopped abruptly. He looked at Zhen Huan with an intriguing expression, his gaze switching between the master and servant.
Zhen Huan probably guessed what the emperor was thinking. She couldn't help but feel sick in her stomach. Zhen Huan said tiredly: "I feel a little unwell today. Why don't you let Huanbi serve the emperor?"
The emperor snorted and said nothing more.
...
When they got up in the morning to pay their respects, the news that Huanbi had been appointed as an official lady spread throughout the six palaces.
Hua Fei smiled sarcastically, her tone was blunt and full of sarcasm.
"It's really interesting. Yesterday she was a servant, but today she has become the master. Concubine Wan is really good-tempered!"
Concubine Jing smiled calmly and said slowly, "If the emperor takes a fancy to someone, who dares to say no? I originally thought Huanbi was good-looking, but I didn't expect she was so lucky. We also have a younger sister to keep us company."
Concubine Qi stretched her neck and looked at Shen Meizhuang with a gossipy look on her face. "Huipin and Wanchang are the best friends. I never saw Huanbi thinking this way before!"
Shen Meizhuang's eyes were filled with disdain. She said solemnly, "I just have a good relationship with Concubine Wan. How could the servants around her notice it?"
Seeing everyone arguing in a mess, Yixiu coughed twice and said calmly: "Okay, since Huanbi has become a concubine, we are sisters from now on. Stop saying these nonsense. If anyone dares to say nonsense in the future and spreads these dirty words to the ears of the emperor, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Concubine Jing nodded and smiled, then stood up first and said, "I will follow the Empress' instructions!"
The others all agreed, except Concubine Hua, who rolled her eyes in disdain but still bowed reluctantly.
Yixiu had just finished scolding everyone when she saw Zhen Huan arriving late with Huanbi.
Huanbi has now become a court lady. She wears a green Manchu dress embroidered with orchids, has her hair combed into a bun, and is simply decorated with some kingfisher hairpins and rings. She looks lively and pretty, and extremely lovely.
When Concubine Hua saw Huanbi like this, her face turned green.
She said angrily: "It's true that clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse. Wearing this master's clothes, I am no longer a slave."
Huanbi was a little unhappy, but she was facing Concubine Hua, so she could only swallow her anger.
Huanbi stepped forward and performed the solemn ceremony of kneeling three times and kowtow nine times to Yixiu, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to the Empress. May the Empress live a thousand years."
Yixiu smiled and nodded. The situation in this life was completely different from the previous one.
In her previous life, Huanbi also wanted to climb up the social ladder, but at that time, Zhen Huan loved the emperor so much that how could she be willing to share a husband with Huanbi?
Now Zhen Huan hopes that the emperor will not go to her place, but she helps Huanbi.
Yixiu knew Huanbi’s weakness. Now even the Zhen family was in her hands, let alone a little Huanbi?
Now Huanbi is no threat to her, instead she can win the favor of Concubine Hua. Yixiu is very kind to Huanbi.
"No need for formalities. Jianqiu, go and get the reward I prepared for the girl from Biguan."
Yixiu's rewards to Huanbi were very generous, and her gentle attitude towards Huanbi made Huanbi feel that the Queen Mother valued her.
She kowtowed to the Queen happily again and said, "Thank you very much for your gift, Your Majesty. From now on, I will serve the Emperor and Your Majesty wholeheartedly and will never let you down."
Hua Fei's handkerchief was torn by her again. The Queen is really good at pretending. She always uses such small favors to win people's hearts.
Concubine Hua scoffed contemptuously, "Huanbi was originally a servant serving Concubine Wan, but now she's been made a court lady by the Emperor. It's a real question where she'll live from now on. Will she stay in Suiyuxuan with Concubine Wan as before, or will the Empress choose a separate palace for her to live in?"
Yixiu ignored Concubine Hua. She looked at the two of them calmly and said with a smile, "Wan Changzai, Huanbi was once your maidservant during your marriage. I think the relationship between you two will be better. I think it would be better for you two to live together in Suiyuxuan."
Chun Changzai, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly spoke up: "Your Majesty, the Suiyu Pavilion is not a big place. It's already a bit cramped for me and Wan Changzai to live in it together. Now with the addition of a girl named Biguan, the room is really inseparable."
Concubine Hua covered her mouth with her hands and said with a smile: "Didn't the girl from Biguan still live in Suiyuxuan before? Let her live in her old room."
Huanbi was not the type to submit to others. She had heard enough ridicule and mockery this morning. Everyone was mocking her in words and deeds, saying that she was born a slave and was not worthy of sitting on the same equal footing with the ladies present.
But how could they know that they are also daughters of the Zhen family and are half-sisters of Zhen Huan? Why should they always be inferior to others?
A hint of viciousness flashed in Huanbi's eyes, but it quickly disappeared. However, the careful Jianqiu saw the clue.
Yixiu thought for a moment, then smiled and said to Concubine Chun: "Since Suiyuxuan is too small to accommodate the three of you, why don't you move out? I remember there seems to be a place in the Yanxi Palace. You can move there and live with Concubine An and Noble Lady Fucha!"
After saying that, Yixiu looked at An Lingrong with a smile. An Lingrong understood and quickly stood up, greeting Chun Changzai with a smile.
"Chun Changzai, you can live with me in the Yanxi Palace."
An Changzai had a gentle temperament and had never had any arguments with anyone. Chun Changzai thought this was not a bad thing. Moreover, the Queen Mother had already spoken, so it was difficult for her to refute her, so she nodded in agreement.
After everyone dispersed, Jianqiu quickly reported what he had seen today to Yixiu.
Yixiu smiled indifferently after hearing this. Huanbi was not the type of person who would keep to herself. No one was always willing to be a supporting role to set off another person, even if that person was her biological sister.
"Have someone keep an eye on Suiyuxuan. If there's any unusual movement, report it to me immediately."
Jianqiu nodded and said, "I understand, but if Huanbi makes any small moves, should we stop her in advance?"
Yixiu looked at Jianqiu suspiciously, and said with her red lips: "Jianqiu, when did you become so kind?"
