The Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Ling Rong

"Jianqiu, the flowers in this palace are all in bloom, competing with each other for beauty. It's time to invite the concubines in the palace to come and enjoy them together."

"Look, Songzi is sometimes very well behaved, but sometimes he loves to jump on people. Tell the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs to mix up some spices and train Songzi well so that he will be obedient."

"Yes, your majesty, I will tell someone to do it right away." Jianqiu naturally knew what to do.

The Queen Mother suddenly invited the concubines in the palace to appreciate the flowers, and it seemed that she was going to take action against Noble Lady Fucha.

I don't rely on the Queen, and the Queen will naturally have a way to deal with Noble Lady Fucha.

Because Noble Lady Fucha was pregnant and relied on the emperor's favor, she was already very proud. How could the queen help her give birth to the child safely?

Concubine Hua spoke loudly: "This pink color is, after all, an inferior color, mostly used by concubines."

Then he picked a peony next to him.

"It's far inferior to this peony, its bright red is dazzling."

"As long as you're young, why should you care about the color of the flowers you wear? Don't you agree, Queen?"

The queen looked embarrassed.

"I have recently learned a poem, and it is very appropriate to read it now. Please accept my request, Your Majesty."

"Lady An? I wonder what poem you would like to read?"

"The peony in the courtyard is wild and without character, the lotus in the pond is pure and sentimental. Only the peony is the true national beauty, and the capital city is moved when the flower blooms."

"I heard that Lady An was not good at poetry and literature. I didn't expect it to be a rumor. That's great."

"I am stupid and only read it in my spare time. I am sorry to make you laugh, Your Majesty."

"The peony is ultimately gorgeous and without distinction. Only this tree peony is the king of flowers."

After leaving the table, Noble Lady Fucha went to the side to touch up her makeup.

"Sister, look, the flowers are blooming in full bloom." I immediately pulled my sister away from Noble Lady Fucha.

When Noble Lady Fucha was putting on makeup, Songzi rushed over and scratched her, causing her to fall down.

The Queen immediately invited Imperial Physician Zhang to treat Noble Lady Fucha.

Unfortunately, the child died because he was frightened and fell down.

Everyone was busy looking after Noble Lady Fucha. Concubine Duan quietly arrived and discovered the perfume powder on the ground.

When the Queen Mother heard the news, she rushed over immediately.

But then Jianqiu reported that Noble Lady Fucha had already seen her period.

"I'm afraid Noble Lady Fucha is no longer useful. Let's have her carried back to her own palace."

"How is this going?"

Concubine Qi stepped forward to explain, "It was the Queen's pine nuts that suddenly got mad and pounced on Noble Lady Fucha."

"Her Majesty, Songzi was given to me by Concubine Qi. I kept him for fun, but he suddenly got upset today. He's usually very well behaved. I don't know what's going on."

"Forget it, you all go back first!"

After the Queen Mother finished speaking, she glared at the Queen and left.

That night, the Queen Mother summoned the Empress and asked her about what had happened during the day. The Empress denied everything and said she knew nothing about it.

The Queen Mother ordered Zhuxi to bring Songzi over. As soon as she took out the perfume powder, Songzi pounced on it.

"Queen, do you still dare to say you didn't know? You have to put the blame on a beast."

The queen was very surprised. She didn't expect that the queen mother had already discovered that it was her who did it.

"I have never been an empress, so as soon as the emperor ascended the throne, I made you the empress, so that the position of empress would not fall into the hands of others."

"The Emperor's offspring are dwindling. How could I not know the reason? Noble Lady Fucha's child is gone, and I will leave Concubine Hui's child to your personal care."

"Empress Dowager, this..."

"If anything happens to Huipin's child again, you will be held responsible."

"Yes, I obey your order!"

The Empress Dowager had already given the order, and the Queen did not dare to take any action against Huipin's child.

Concubine Hua ate pickles in the middle of the night, one after another, until she vomited.

"Why can everyone give birth, but I can't?"

Thinking of the aborted child, he went to find Concubine Duan in a rage.

Jixiang saw that it was Concubine Hua and hurriedly stood up to stop her. Concubine Hua gave her a look and Zhou Ninghai went over to pull Jixiang away.

Concubine Duan was still lying on the bed at this time. Concubine Hua walked over and slapped her in the face, gritting her teeth in hatred.

"How many years have you been here? Whenever you're not satisfied, you come and torture and humiliate me in every possible way. If I were truly guilty of such heinous crimes, the Emperor wouldn't have allowed me to live to this day.

The Emperor believed you, but I didn't. In the entire palace, you were the only one who lived in peace and harmony, so I trusted you a little. But I didn't expect you to be so cruel and actually drugged and aborted my child.

"You certainly lost a son tragically, but you made me drink a pot of red flower, and I can no longer have children."

"You deserve it. Just endure it slowly under my hand."

"My lady, how are you?"

Only after Concubine Hua left was Jixiang able to come in.

"Whether it's good or not, what does it matter? If I didn't have unfulfilled wishes, why would I keep this life?"

"Tell the laundry department not to wash her clothes, not to give her fresh food, not to allow the imperial physician to see her, and not to provide her with food, clothing, or other necessities. Not at all!"

When Concubine Hua thought of the pain of losing her child, she wanted to kill Concubine Duan immediately. Songzhi watched and didn't dare to say a word.

"Baojuan, come with me to Yanqing Palace to visit Concubine Duan. Just bring some daily necessities and food!"

"Why do you suddenly want to visit Concubine Duan? Besides, Concubine Duan always claims to be sick and doesn't see anyone!"

"It's okay, let's try our luck."

Then I took Baojuan to Yanqing Hall. Baojuan knocked on the door and it was Jixiang who opened it. After I explained my purpose, Jixiang went in to report.

After a while, Jixiang came out.

"The Queen said, please come in!"

Concubine Duan was sitting on the couch at this time, looking very weak.

"Your Majesty is not feeling well. I am sorry to bother you so late at night." I felt a little reluctant to see her.

"It's okay. I've had this illness for years, so it's nothing serious. But, Lady An, is there anything you need from me coming here so late at night?"

After saying this, Concubine Duan breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Concubine Duan's body was indeed too weak.

"Because of the incident today where Noble Lady Fucha was hit by a pine nut, I happened to see Your Majesty here too. I wonder if Your Majesty has discovered something?"

When Concubine Duan heard this, she was shocked.

"Oh? You saw it too?"

"I just feel something is suspicious, but I have no evidence. I have no ill will towards you, Your Majesty. Please believe me."

"Today, the palace did make a discovery. Not far from where Matsuko went crazy, a box of scented powder was found."

Jixiang immediately took the box and handed it to Concubine Duan.

"I heard you can make perfume, why not take a look."

I took the box, took a closer look and smelled it, and sure enough, it was almost the same as the spices I had mixed before.

"This incense powder is truly extraordinary. It has been meticulously blended, with the finest ingredients and dosage. If you let Pine Nut smell it for a long time, once he smells the same scent, he will definitely go crazy."

"My Lady, it seems someone did this on purpose?"

"If Concubine Hua is a ferocious tiger, then Cao Qinmo is the tiger's claws!"

"Your Majesty, are you saying that this was done by Concubine Hua?"

"Concubine Hua has always been domineering. How could she allow someone else to give birth to the Emperor's child?"

"Thank you, Madam, for your guidance and for answering my questions."

"These things are a little gift from my concubine, please don't despise them, Your Majesty!"

"Mrs. An is thoughtful!"
