Traveling through the Legend of Zhen Huan: My Queen, please love me!

"Everything depends on human effort. I will do my best to protect you."

This was Liu Hua's only reply, but she couldn't satisfy An Lingrong.

"Haven't you noticed, sister? You've become a little harder lately, but not hard enough."

Liu Hua didn't quite understand what An Lingrong meant. If this was a trick used against Tong Jia Yunrong, it was a tit-for-tat, as she had committed the offense first.

“She deserved it.”

"I'm not saying I'm sorry, but I'm really upset with Concubine Chun. She used to feed her cakes and take her out to play, but today she's nowhere to be seen. I don't know if she'll dislike me."

An Lingrong must have known that Liu Hua would not despise her. Putting aside the fact that they shared honor and disgrace, let's just talk about their true love.

"Empresses in the Palace and Zhen Huan treated her well. She shouldn't have told me about Wen Shichu."

Liu Hua's brows were furrowed tighter and tighter, for no other reason than that An Lingrong's bottom was kicked to the ground.

There was a sharp sound of "hiss", similar to the sound of cloth being torn apart quickly and forcefully.

An Lingrong then pulled off the hairpin on her head and cut open her socks.

A pair of jade feet appeared in front of Liu Hua, and An Lingrong's request was extremely excessive.

"I just don't understand. My sister's heart has become a little fast. A few days ago, the charcoal fire in the house was full, and every time I went to the charcoal fire, I would remove three or four pots..."

Then she lowered her head and bit Liu Hua's Butterfly Flower earrings.

"Hiss," Liu Hua said in pain and a little annoyed, "How can I explain this to the emperor? Aren't you afraid that he will find out?"

An Lingrong looked at him with disdain, lowering her head and whispering, "Sister, you think too highly of him. He's now happily married to Li Yingying's family. He has no time to care for us old and ugly people."

Liu Hua stopped talking and his body remained stiff and motionless.

Liu Hua held An Lingrong's feet in his hands. "Very cold" was the first impression in Liu Hua's mind. Then he felt something was wrong. Even if the brazier was used, there was floor heating, so it wouldn't be cold.

"Why is it so cold? Haven't you looked for Wei Lin?"

Liu Hua asked anxiously, with a barely perceptible panic in his tone.

“It’s just a side effect.”

"What side effects? I didn't mean to ask you to make less strange incense." Liu Hua's words had a bit of a scolding tone, but to An Lingrong's ears they sounded like flirting.

"Sister, why don't you tell me what kind of fragrance it is? What kind of fragrance can make Sister dream about it? What kind of fragrance can make Sister remember it forever?"

Liu Hua did not give An Lingrong any face and took the thick account books from the table one by one.

“Oh no.”

An Lingrong's butt did not fall on the tough rosewood, but instead pressed on Liu Hua's thigh.

This was beyond Liu Hua's expectations and caught her off guard, so she could only let out a soft cry.

Going with the flow is what smart people do.

An Lingrong's pair of jade arms formed a ring and hooked Liu Hua's head.

"Your feet are cold. I've come up with a few good ideas for you, sister. I'm even risking my life. Won't you show some appreciation?"

Liu Hua didn't care about any good method, but instead warmed An Lingrong's feet. Her hands were very hot because she had been holding the hot water bottle for a long time.

An Lingrong hadn't slept with Liu Hua for a long time, and Yinzhen had been visiting Liu Hua frequently recently.

Liu Hua has become a naturally gifted actor, with a pair of affectionate eyes that show deep affection to everyone he looks at.

An Lingrong had no choice but to make incense. Undoubtedly, she smelled a little too much medicine, which mixed with other things in her body, so her whole body felt cold. Liu Hua's body was nothing more than a big furnace, and the warmth made her feel at ease.

"Sister will definitely coax me. Does the emperor have such treatment?"

An Lingrong asked this question even though she knew the answer. When it came to sleeping with the emperor, either Concubine Chang was unwell, or Concubine Chun was suffering from morning sickness, and even Fu Rujin and Li Qihe became reluctant to leave a meal for the emperor.

An Lingrong did not think highly of Fu Rujin. She was too ignorant of the current situation and did not hide her pride, which only made herself suffer and brought trouble to her family.

You must know that in the palace, the principle that it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge is very applicable.

"Does the emperor have this treatment? It's still Arong who decides. If Arong tells me to go west, I will never dare to go east."

Liu Hua used a set of clichéd words to coax her, but An Lingrong fell for it.

"Since my sister kept me warm, I have a plan."

Just when Liu Hua was about to say - He Ji, don't drive easily, a finger appeared on his lips.

"Shh, don't make any noise. I'm afraid others will know that my sister is disobedient."

Liu Hua had no choice but to surrender and do nothing.

The hand warming her feet also stopped, and An Lingrong changed from sitting in Liu Hua's arms to kneeling.

His chin rested on her shoulder, the tip of his nose just touching the reddened earlobe.

"Sister, what do you think the Queen will do with Tong Jia and Yun Rong? Let me guess why Concubine Huan regained her favor. She's just a little bit like Zhen Huan and a little bit like Empress Chun Yuan.

Sister, you might as well think about it again, considering the tolerance of our Majesty. Yi Changzai is really bold, but her title is indeed well chosen. Queen Chunyuan has been dead for many years. Does the emperor even remember her appearance clearly?

Liu Hua never doubted that Yinzhen truly loved Queen Chunyuan, but there might be other factors involved.

The most direct thing is interest, but Liu Hua knows in his heart that both Rouze and Yixiu are just representatives of the family.

Even though Yixiu is a concubine's daughter, as long as she can represent the family, she can gain endless honor.

Yinzhen's purpose was very similar to that of Hongli today, both of which were to attract investment. He married Yixiu to attract the investment of the Ulanara family.

When he married Yixiu as his concubine, the investment had actually been in place, but Ulanara did not put in all the efforts of the entire family.

When the situation becomes clear, he can follow suit. There is no reason to let her, a legitimate daughter who can marry the grandson of a founding general, become a bargaining chip. This will only waste political resources.

He knew that he could win over the military power in the army, but he gave it all to Yinzhen, and the return he got was just what he originally got.

For a long time, Liu Hua thought that Yixiu was not worthy of representing the entire Ulanara clan, as she was just a concubine's daughter.

But if you think about it carefully, Yinzhen was born out of wedlock, Wuya Chenbi was born out of wedlock, and Yixiu was also born out of wedlock.

The three most respectable groups in the Forbidden City were all born out of wedlock.

The Imperial Noble Consort was not the fifth daughter born out of wedlock, because her biological father was Tong Guowei. She was sent to the palace as a concubine and enjoyed the treatment of a noble concubine. She became the Imperial Noble Consort as soon as Emperor Kangxi died.

From this we can see that while Yinzhen's primary consideration was power, he was also looking for one or two true loves among the women who had represented large families.

This was the case with Empress Chunyuan, and even more so with Nian Shilan. And Concubine Qi Yue was truly aggrieved.

"The Emperor must have remembered what Empress Chunyuan looked like, and the nightgown he was wearing was also woven by Empress Chunyuan herself.

He must have had feelings for her in the past, so Concubine Huan and Concubine Yi were favored.

As for Zhen Huan, it can account for four out of ten reasons.

An Lingrong hooked Liu Hua's hair and chose a plan exactly the same as Yixiu's:

"It's time for Concubine Wan to return to the palace, sister. She didn't ask for the position of concubine, she just said she wanted to practice cultivation. Have you forgotten that cultivation can naturally be taken back?

Empress Chunyuan has passed away. Even if the emperor has only a little bit of true love for her, he can at least deal with Concubine Chang who was forced into the palace by Lord Longkodo.

Zhen Huan and Concubine Chang had a grudge against each other. When she was leaving, Concubine Chang stopped the emperor and prevented Zhen Huan from going to see Princess Longyue.
