Yixiu is reborn, fights against her elder sister, and becomes the queen mother

Concubine Hua brought people into the inner room. At this moment, Concubine Duan was reclining on the bed, and Jixiang was serving her medicine.

After seeing who was coming, Jixiang put the medicine bowl on the table with some fear and protected Concubine Duan behind him.

Although she was terrified, Jixiang still remembered the rules. She bowed respectfully to Concubine Hua and said, "Your servant greets Her Majesty Hua. I wonder what brings Her Majesty Hua here?"

Zhou Ninghai dragged Jixiang away directly. Jixiang cried and shouted desperately, but it was of no use.

Concubine Duan watched Jixiang being dragged away. She coughed anxiously, but she could only stretch out her hands helplessly and lament, "How dare you! How dare you! Let her go!"

Concubine Hua walked forward slowly and glared at Concubine Duan sadly. If looks could kill, Concubine Duan would have been cut into pieces by him by now.

Concubine Duan knew the reason behind Concubine Hua's visit. She shook her head helplessly and sighed, "Concubine Hua, you came to me today and made such a scene. Is it just to vent your anger? Aren't you afraid of being blamed by the Empress and Concubine Xian?"

Concubine Hua sneered, "Empress? Concubine Xian? They are just defeated by me. If they want to punish me, then go ahead. I will never let a bitch like you get away with it."

After Concubine Hua wantonly humiliated Concubine Duan, Jianqiu arrived late with Yixiu's orders.

"I pay my respects to Consort Hua and Consort Duan, and convey the Empress's order, requesting Consort Hua return to your own palace immediately. If Consort Hua refuses to accept the order, then I will have no choice but to ask for the Emperor's order."

Concubine Hua just wanted to vent her anger and didn't want to make a big deal out of this matter. She rolled her eyes and left with her people.

Concubine Duan breathed a long sigh of relief, and a tear rolled down her cheek.

Jianqiu winked at the palace maids and eunuchs who were still standing and shouted, "Are you all dead? Why don't you clean up quickly?"

She smiled faintly and stepped forward to comfort him, saying, "I'm sorry I'm late, and I've wronged Concubine Duan. But the Empress is really in a difficult situation right now. The Emperor favors Concubine Hua, and Concubine Xian isn't in charge anymore. We really can't do anything about it."

Concubine Duan quickly stopped crying, as she didn't want anyone to see her in such a miserable state.

She forced a smile and said, "Thank you for your concern, Aunt Jianqiu. I'm fine now. I also know that the Empress is in trouble. I am the one who caused trouble for her."

After Jianqiu said a few polite words to Concubine Duan, she went out and ordered people to quickly sweep Concubine Duan's yard clean, and asked someone to record what things Concubine Hua had broken. After the incident, she gave the bill to Yikun Palace and asked them to calculate the money and hand it over to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

After everyone left, Jixiang brought another bowl of medicine and handed it to Concubine Duan.

"Your Majesty was frightened just now, so I made you another bowl."

Looking at the black medicine in the bowl that emitted a disgusting smell, Concubine Duan became angry for no apparent reason and overturned the bowl.

A beam of dark light hit Concubine Duan's face, making her eyebrows look extremely ferocious.

"It's all because of her that I've been bedridden all these years and have to drink this stuff constantly. She keeps saying that I've harmed her, but she's clearly ruined my life."

Jixiang knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe.

"Since she doesn't want me to live, then I don't have to give her a chance. I'm just dragging this broken body around with me to live out my remaining life. What else can I not do?"

Concubine Duan coughed heavily twice. Jixiang quickly stood up and patted Concubine Duan on the back. Concubine Duan held Jixiang's hand and said, "Go and boil another bowl of medicine for me. I must hold on."

Royal Garden

Xia He held the tray in her hand with a look of joy and complimented, "The Emperor truly dotes on my young lady. Knowing that my young lady likes green, he specially gifted my young lady a piece of green Floating Light Brocade. Floating Light Brocade is already rare, and there's only one piece of this green Floating Light Brocade this year. This shows how much the Emperor loves my young lady!"

Huanbi was extremely proud. She adjusted the jeweled hairpin on her head and said with a smile, "You little girl, your mouth is as sweet as honey. The emperor's favor to anyone is not a routine reward, but he has to speak so nicely of you."

Xia He smiled and said, "It's said to be a routine reward, but it requires the emperor's favor! If there is no favor, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to say these words even if I were eloquent."

The master and servant were chatting and laughing when they happened to meet Zhen Huan who came to the imperial garden to relax.

Liu Zhu heard the laughter of the two people from a distance, especially the last sentence, "If there is no love", which was like a knife that pierced Liu Zhu's heart.

She couldn't help herself and stepped forward to argue with Xia He, "Just talk, why are you being so sarcastic? How did the young lady offend you? Why do you have to humiliate her like this?"

Huanbi frowned. It was Liuzhu again. Last time, she had spared her because they had been together since childhood.

But I didn't expect that he was still so forgetful and started arguing with me in the Imperial Garden.

Now that I am the master, if I let Liu Zhu off easily today, how will she survive in the future?

Besides, given Liu Zhu's personality, if I don't teach her a lesson, I'm afraid she won't learn her lesson.

Huanbi's face turned cold, "How dare you! You are just a little servant, and I am the emperor's concubine. How dare you confront me? This is a crime of great disrespect!"

It was too late for Zhen Huan to stop her. She could only pull Liu Zhu aside and said to Huan Bi with a smile, "Bi, promise me, it was my fault for not taking good care of the servants around me. Today I apologize to you!"

As Zhen Huan spoke, she bowed to Huanbi, keeping her posture extremely humble.

Seeing that Zhen Huan was like this, Huanbi thought it was better to let it go. After all, Zhen Huan was her elder sister, and she didn't want to embarrass Zhen Huan.

Just at this moment, Concubine Duan and Concubine Qi came from not far away.

Seeing the quarrel, Concubine Qi asked curiously, "Hey, isn't this Bi Da Ying? Why are you quarreling with someone here?"

Huanbi bowed to Concubine Qi and Concubine Duan, "Greetings to Concubine Qi and Concubine Duan. I was chatting peacefully with my maid in the Imperial Garden, when Liuzhu, who was beside Wanchang, suddenly rushed over and offended me."

Zhen Huan also bowed with Liu Zhu, and was about to explain when she was interrupted again.

Concubine Qi didn't react much, but Concubine Duan's expression brightened. She deliberately sowed discord, saying, "I heard that Bi Da Ying was once a maidservant by Concubine Wan's side. If you didn't know, you would think that Concubine Wan was dissatisfied with Bi Da Ying's favor and was deliberately making things difficult for her."

Zhen Huan's face was filled with helplessness. She could only explain, "I have absolutely no such intention. I hope that Concubine Qi and Concubine Duan will understand."

What Concubine Duan wanted to do was to muddy the waters of the harem. She coughed twice and said, "I have always been in poor health, so it is not convenient for me to interfere in these matters. However, Concubine Qi is deeply trusted by the Emperor and has the Third Prince as her wife. Please make a decision, Concubine Qi!"
