【Xianyue Pavilion】

Zhen Huan looked at the lifeless Crescent Moon Pavilion, and Shen Meizhuang took out a yellow candle and lit it.

The candles gave off an unpleasant smell of burnt smoke. Zhen Huan covered her nose and said, "Sister, how can we live in Xianyue Pavilion now?"

"Why can't I stay?" Shen Meizhuang smiled in relief. "Which servant in the Imperial Household Department isn't used to changing his attitude according to the situation?"

Zhen Huan wanted to tell Shen Meizhuang that Liu Bin was not dead yet and that her father had been hunted down.

However, Shen Meizhuang did not feel the pleasure of having her injustice vindicated. Instead, she said calmly, "With the favor I received that day, I will be pregnant sooner or later.

But Concubine Hua pushed too hard and went too far.

I was just blinded by greed, but there is nothing wrong with being here."

Zhen Huan said anxiously, "Sister, you've fallen into such a state, how can you expect to have good food and shelter?"

Shen Meizhuang looked at Zhen Huan in front of her and said with a strange tone, "At least let me understand one thing. The current emperor has entrusted the wrong person. Huan'er, you..."

Zhen Huan quickly covered Shen Meizhuang's mouth. Shen Meizhuang gently pulled Zhen Huan's hand away and said in a low voice:

"We were kept in the boudoir at first, hoping to marry a man of our dreams.

However, once I entered the palace, although I did not expect the emperor to treat me as an equal, I also hoped that he would pity me and trust me so that I could have someone to rely on for the rest of my life.

But now, I understand a lot of things, and my heart is dead."

Aunt Fang Ruo knocked on the door anxiously. Zhen Huan realized that there was not enough time and said goodbye immediately.

After changing his clothes, he hurried out of the place, but met the patrolling guards.

Zhen Huan ran to a pond with a nervous mood and saw a small boat.

The guards' footsteps were getting closer, and the light from their lanterns was growing brighter.

Zhen Huan had no time to choose and quickly got in.

When she looked up, she saw Prince Guo.

Qingliang Hall

Concubine Hua was rare and attentive and handed Liu Hua a fork to pick up the watermelon.

And he patiently said: "Watermelon is cold in nature. My sister has become so thin, so you should be careful when eating it."

Liu Hua accepted Concubine Hua's kindness generously and said with a smile, "I'm not that delicate."

Just then, Huang Guiquan, the chief steward of the Imperial Household Department, came in.

Seeing Liu Hua was at a loss, Concubine Hua said generously: "If you have anything to say, just tell me directly. Sister Xuanpin is not an outsider."

"what?"

Liu Hua was confused in his heart.

She herself had never imagined that one day she would be classified as a member of Concubine Hua's lineage.

I don’t know whether to cry or laugh?

Huang Guiquan immediately "understood" and smiled exaggeratedly: "Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Then, he knelt down a step further and said in a low voice, "I have already arranged everything for Shen."

Liu Hua frowned slightly, perhaps because she felt sympathy for Shen Meizhuang, or perhaps because she couldn't bear to see this strong woman who loved horse riding suffer such a deception.

Eventually she fell into jealousy because of love.

But she is still a jealous woman with no children or brothers.

The aroma of Huanyixiang from Concubine Hua's place was so fragrant that Liu Hua knew that it had been used since Concubine Hua entered the mansion.

From the very beginning, Yinzhen was cautious and was plotting against Concubine Hua's love for him.

Even Cao Qinmo from Hua Fei's team didn't tell her.

After all, wasn't Princess Wen Yi smelling the fragrance of Huan Yi?

All the emperor's deep affection is just like flowing clouds and water.

It came with huge waves and then went away with a torrent.

Liu Hua couldn't bear it any longer and said, "Sister Hua Fei, I have something important to tell you."

Hua Fei made a gesture and Huang Guiquan retreated, and even Song Zhi wanted to retreat too.

Liu Hua hurriedly stopped him. After all, she was afraid that Songzhi would be too conspicuous without her.

After Liu Hua loudly praised the cakes, he said to Concubine Hua: "General Nian won a victory, the whole court is celebrating, and he will return to the capital soon."

Concubine Hua became proud and looked at Liu Hua's face even more eagerly.

"Yes, it's all thanks to your sister. An Changzai's father, An Bihuai, helped my brother guard the food and tied up Jiang Wenqing."

Liu Hua never expected that there would be this.

She originally wanted An Lingrong to write a letter, and combined with the banknotes and secret promises she gave to An Lingrong's mother, she just hoped that An Bihuai could find someone to take sick leave.

Unexpectedly, this father-in-law who embezzled 800,000 taels of silver actually had such a method!

Liu Hua could only pretend not to know and said to Concubine Hua: "Sister Concubine Hua, please understand, that is Concubine An's father."

Hua Fei smiled meaningfully and said, "Why bother telling me all this and that? My brother just told me about it this morning!

An Changzai's father was only the magistrate of Songyang County, how could he have so many thugs? I inquired and found out that those thugs were all followers of salt merchants from Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

My sister was dancing to Qingshang music at the New Year's Eve banquet. Lady Cao told me it was a folk song from the Jiangnan region."

Liu Hua was shocked, but then he thought about how this was a family arrangement and his extremely smart uncle.

"I'm afraid my uncle is overthinking it, but it's not necessarily a bad idea. After all, we can ask for a title for Arong."

But if Yinzhen classifies herself as Hua Fei's faction, then she would be doomed.

Fortunately, there is a prescription for the epidemic. Once this prescription is developed, Yinzhen will not touch me. After all, I am the immortal dragon who came to me in a dream.

The first half was spoken in front of so many people, and now the palace people are still spreading the rumor that it was a fabrication.

Liu Hua took a deep breath, feeling grateful that his strategy saved him from immediate death, but also sighing for the risks ahead.

Concubine Hua looked at Liu Hua's melancholy expression in confusion, but Concubine Cao beside her seemed to understand something.

But she never expected that Liu Hua would say what came next.

"Sister Hua Fei, you'd better serve Shen Da Ying well."

Hua Feifei said in disbelief: "What? You call me sister, why are you still helping Shen Meizhuang, that bitch?"

Liu Hua looked at Concubine Hua and said cautiously, "Your Majesty, I understand."

Concubine Hua's usually arrogant eyes began to evade, and her expression became panic. Liu Hua then stepped up and said, "General Nian has been feared by the Emperor for a long time."

Hua Fei lost her voice and said, "How is it possible?"

Liu Hua shook his head and said, "Sister, you know for yourself that the Emperor's love for the Empress is largely due to General Nian.

Your Majesty, haven't you noticed that since General Nian won the battle, the Emperor has been visiting you more often."

Hua Fei is not stupid, she just doesn't want to believe it.

Liu Hua looked at her seriously and said to the Empress: "The Emperor hopes that General Nian will be humble. If the General abides by the rules, then the Empress can live longer."

Concubine Hua fell into deep thought, tilting her head and glancing at Huan Yixiang.

Immediately, fan it with your hands and smell it with the tip of your nose.

Liu Hua knew that she could remind Concubine Hua of this, but she couldn't remind Huan Yixiang.

Once Hua Fei is reminded, she will definitely be replaced. I am the one who was checked today.

Sooner or later, Yinzhen would find out that she used her father's people to deliver An Lingrong's things.

And informed her father to capture Jiang Wenqing.

But Yinzhen didn't believe that capturing Jiang Wenqing was just a result of his dream. He might ask himself:

"How did you know Jiang Wenqing would be like this?"

"How can you spread information outside the palace at will?"

There is really no control over the situation in the harem.

Liu Hua said loudly: "The Queen's cakes are really delicious. It's late at night, and I should go home."

Concubine Hua stared at Liu Hua with red eyes.

"You are not welcome to come to me next time. You have eaten so much and made me spend countless cakes."

Liu Hua said, "Your Majesty, you are joking."

"This hairpin of your majesty is quite nice. It is made of Hetian jade, and I love jade the most."

Hua Fei said: "I don't like jade. It's white, what's so beautiful about it? It's not as beautiful as flowers made of gold lace. It doesn't fade, it stays bright forever, and it can wear out."

Liu Hua said: "It must have cost a lot."

Hua Fei said unconsciously: "It should be my brother who gave me the subsidy."

Liu Hua said meaningfully,

"But General Nian is a second-class duke, and his salary as a general is not even enough to cover half of Concubine Hua's daily expenses."

"Are the others really awarded by the Emperor? Or are they using the General's connections?"

"Are those who use connections the kind of cunning and deceitful people that the Emperor hates? Does Concubine Hua put the Emperor first?"

This was Liu Hua's most deadly attack, because in Concubine Hua's eyes, nothing could compare to the emperor.

Concubine Hua had a complicated expression on her face. She touched the velvet flower on her head and said, "I will never wear it again, that's all."

Liu Hua felt the gradually cooler breeze and looked at the blooming crape myrtles.

Suddenly I remembered what Zhen Huan once said in the play,

"It's no longer the season for crabapple blossoms."

Liu Hua also wanted to blurt it out, but was cautious.

Can only suppress it in my heart

"It is no longer the season for Hua Fei's camellia to bloom.

Camellias always fall down in whole flowers, dying gracefully.

Never leave a trace, not wither piece by piece. "

"He's too strong-willed."
