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

Concubine Jing also said, "Yes, my sister must not have had enough rest recently. Why did she start talking nonsense?"

The three people had a decent relationship with Concubine Xian. They chatted for a while, expressed their feelings about Concubine Duan, and then dispersed.

Broken Yuxuan

"Sister, I really shouldn't have said that in the Zhongzheng Hall just now. If these words were to get out, I'm afraid the Emperor would become suspicious and Noblewoman Nian would hate you too."

Zhen Huan said to Shen Meizhuang with some concern.

Shen Meizhuang's brows furrowed, she lowered her eyes and sighed, "I really hate Concubine Hua in my heart. Why did she treat us so badly back then? Why can she turn back? The Emperor can forgive her, but I won't."

Zhen Huan nodded, a hint of coldness in her voice.

"Sister, I will only hate her even more. She is my own flesh and blood! And Huanbi, if it weren't for Nian Shilan's instigation, she wouldn't have ended up like that."

After hearing this, Shen Meizhuang tentatively grabbed Zhen Huan's hand, with a hint of madness in her eyes.

"Noble Lady Nian no longer has the support of the Nian family. All she has is the Emperor's favor. Do we want it?"

The coldness in Zhen Huan's eyes grew even more intense. "That's what I was thinking. Noble Lady Nian has harmed us. This matter won't just end like this. She must be buried with my child."

Zhen Huan continued, "Just one thing. Don't tell the Empress about how to deal with Noble Lady Nian. I'm afraid the Empress and Noble Lady Nian have reached some kind of deal."

Shen Meizhuang was a little surprised. "How could this be? Noble Lady Nian has oppressed the Queen for so many years. The Queen must be extremely resentful of her. How could she possibly protect her?"

Zhen Huan smiled and shook her head, "The most unfathomable person in this palace is the Empress."

Qixiang Palace

Because of the hot weather, the wound on Ruhua's face did not scab over, but pus oozed out, which was extremely disgusting to look at.

Xiao Xizi looked at Ruhua with disgust. He really didn't want to touch Ruhua's disgusting face with his hands.

Ruhua, however, had no idea how much Xiao Xizi disliked her. Instead, she smiled coquettishly and said, "Just let you apply the medicine yourself! To be honest, if Rong Pei hadn't been injured, this kind of good thing wouldn't have been your turn!"

Xiao Xizi stretched out his hand tentatively, but he still couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.

Finally, he gave up resistance.

"If you agree, I am a rough and crude man, and I am really not worthy of serving you. Why don't you go and call Rong Pei!"

After saying that, Xiao Xizi ran out of the door without looking back.

Unexpectedly, when he ran out of the door, he saw Chunmei and Xiahe coming back.

Xiao Xizi immediately stepped forward in surprise and asked, "Are both sisters okay?"

Chunmei and Xiahe nodded. "Yes, he's getting better. He wanted to stay in the Imperial Hospital for two more days!"

Xiao Xizi smiled bitterly and said, "You two sisters are right. Ru promised to offend Concubine Duan and was spanked ten times with a stick. Now her face is as rotten as a pig's head."

Xia He asked in surprise, "Was he beaten by Concubine Duan? That's impossible. When we just came back today, we happened to see Concubine Duan's funeral."

Her voice was a little loud and was heard by Ruhua who was in the room.

Ruhua didn't care about the pain on her face. She pried open the door and asked coquettishly, "What were you guys saying just now about Concubine Duan's funeral? Is that true?"

Ruhua's action looks particularly sneaky, like a furtive old lady with a pig's head.

Xia He felt it was an eyesore. She turned her head away and said, "Of course it's true. But now that the young lady is like this, it's better not to go out."

After hearing the affirmative answer, Ruhua began to daydream.

Why did Concubine Duan die suddenly?

After thinking for a while, Ruhua came to the conclusion that the emperor must have known that Concubine Duan had punished him, so he vented his anger and ordered Concubine Duan to be executed.

She knew that the emperor was her middle-aged lover. She and the emperor fell in love at first sight in Ganlu Temple and decided to spend their lives together. The emperor had her in his heart.

Her face was filled with pride. "Chunmei, Xiahe, now that you two are back, come and serve me! Oh, and you should also go and pay your respects to Rong Pei, my newly appointed head maid."

Chunmei was stunned for a moment. "My lady, you are only a concubine, not the head maid of Qixiang Palace. You cannot be appointed as the head maid. Besides, I am the head maid assigned by the Ministry of Internal Affairs to be in charge of the affairs of Qixiang Palace."

Ruhua is the emperor's sweetheart, how could he allow Chunmei to provoke her?

But Ruhua considers herself a kind person. She cannot punish Chunmei and wants to use her personal charm to influence her.

"I am the Emperor's sweetheart. We fell in love at first sight at Ganlu Temple... Speaking of which, Concubine Duan is quite pitiful. Why did she have to offend me when there were so many people she could offend? I must have hurt the Emperor's heart, so he ordered Concubine Duan to be executed."

No one would believe such words. Chunmei and the others all curled their lips and treated Ruhua as air.

Unexpectedly, these words were heard by the palace maid who was cleaning outside.

Qi family

The Qi family is now in decline, and the children of the Qi family are now living in the patriarch's house. Everyone is discussing what to do in the future?

A young man walked in from outside, looking exhausted, his face full of anger.

"I finally found out the cause of Concubine Duan's death. It's all that bitch's fault. Otherwise, how could our family have ended up like this?"

A middle-aged man asked, "Who did it? Was it the noble man from that year?"

The young man shook his head. "No, the Nian family has long since fallen. How could they still be so powerful? I once saved a young palace maid. She sent me a message saying that the Empress had punished a concubine in the palace. Despite her low rank, the concubine fell in love with the Emperor at first sight at Ganlu Temple and pledged her life to him."

After saying this, he swallowed and continued, "I heard that because of her, the Emperor, the Queen Mother, and the Empress had a quarrel that made all three of them sick. Now the Crown Prince is in charge of state affairs."

The middle-aged man asked in confusion, "If this girl is so favored, why is she still a mere concubine after entering the palace? The emperor should give her a higher rank."

The young man waved his hand. "You wouldn't have guessed that, would you? The Emperor lowered her position to protect her from being targeted. But in reality, the Emperor values her greatly."

The middle-aged man said angrily, "But no matter how favored she is, she cannot harm the Empress. My Qi family will not let this matter go. Killing her is not enough to vent our anger."

The other members of the Qi family also nodded in agreement. They had hatred and resentment towards the emperor in their hearts, but under the brainwashing of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism in this era, they could not show this and could only transfer their hatred to Ruhua.
