The Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Ling Rong

When I went to pay my respects to the Empress this morning, she announced publicly, "Noble Lady Hui, you are now eight months pregnant. According to the rules, your mother can come to the palace to accompany you. You will return to Cunju Hall and wait. I have sent someone to pick up your mother."

Mei Jie was overjoyed and immediately stood up and saluted the Queen: "Thank you very much, Queen."

"Hurry up and get up. You are in poor health now, so let's skip these formalities. It would be even better if you could give birth to a prince for the emperor."

"Sisters, you should also work hard to give birth to a child for the Emperor as soon as possible! Besides Huipin's child who is about to be due, Wanpin and Anpin's children are also things that the Emperor cares about."

"If God favors me, he will give me a son. Otherwise, having a daughter is just better than nothing." Everyone could hear Hua Fei's contemptuous tone clearly.

Cao Qinmo's face changed when he heard this, but he didn't say anything.

Concubine Qi couldn't help but mock Concubine Hua again: "Concubine Hua, the Emperor visits your palace the most every month. How come it's been so long and there's still no sign of pregnancy?"

The fact that she doesn't have children is Hua Fei's weak spot and cannot be touched, but Qi Fei insists on touching it.

"If you give birth to a smart and clever prince, that would be good, as a mother will be honored by her son. But if you give birth to a dull and stupid one, and make the emperor dislike him, then it would be better not to give birth to him, Concubine Qi, don't you think so?" Concubine Hua said with a mocking look on her face.

"you……"

Concubine Qi was speechless and could only remain silent.

But Concubine Hua, how could you let Concubine Qi go so easily?

"I heard that the Fourth Prince started learning late, but he can memorize books much more fluently than the Third Prince." Concubine Hua smiled inadvertently, covering her mouth.

"What is the status of the Fourth Prince? His biological mother is of low status. How can he be compared with my Third Prince?"

When Concubine Qi heard Concubine Hua comparing the Fourth Prince, who came from a humble background, with her Third Prince, she became furious.

"They are both the Emperor's children, and the Fourth Prince is also a prince, so why is there such a big difference?"

Seeing that Concubine Hua and Concubine Qi had started arguing again, the Queen couldn't help but rub her temples with a headache, and then said, "Okay, it's getting late, I want to sleep a little longer, you all should go back!"

After hearing the Queen's words, Concubine Hua and Concubine Qi looked at each other, a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in their eyes, but they still said in unison: "Yes, I'll take my leave!" After that, the two turned around and left the Queen's bedroom.

Everyone also withdrew.

Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, the queen shook her head helplessly and sighed in her heart: There is really no peace in this harem!

Then she closed her eyes and prepared to continue resting.

"Sister's mother will be coming to the palace soon, sister, please go back to the palace and get ready!"

"Yes, then I will go back first."

"Caiyue, keep an eye on your young lady!" I reminded her worriedly.

"Sister, look how happy Sister Mei is."

"Yes, Sister Mei is of course happy. Come to think of it, I miss my mother a little too."

"Don't worry, sister. The emperor has always loved you. It's only a matter of time. Maybe before eight months, your aunt will be able to come to the palace to see you."

"Is it possible?" My sister was skeptical.

"That's natural, don't worry, sister. I'm hungry, let's go back and have breakfast."

"Why are you like Chun'er now? You only remember to eat every day."

"I've had a very good appetite recently. I always feel hungry. I get hungry soon after eating. Sister, don't you feel hungry when you're pregnant?"

"I don't have much of an appetite. I always feel nauseous and nothing I eat makes me feel uncomfortable."

"Sister is not feeling well, let's ask Doctor Wen to come and see her later!"

"Then let's go back first. We won't go to see Sister Mei today. Sister Mei is very busy."

Huipin and Caiyue returned to Cunju Hall and waited there.

"Caiyue, why hasn't mother come yet after so long? Could something have happened?"

"Don't worry, my lady, the lady should be here soon." Caiyue also seemed a little nervous.

As he was speaking, he heard someone coming outside.

"Madam, you've had a hard time on the journey. Please come in quickly. The young lady is waiting anxiously."

The one who spoke was Juqing. She stood at the door and greeted Mrs. Shen with a smile on her face.

The lady smiled and nodded, then walked into the room. Her eyes fell on the young lady, full of love and tenderness.

When Huipin saw her mother coming, a happy smile appeared on her face.

She stepped forward, took her mother's hand, and greeted her warmly, "Mom, you're here! Did you have a smooth journey?"

The lady gently stroked Huipin's hair and said with a smile: "The journey has been smooth, everything is fine at home, but I miss you a little."

Huipin pulled her mother to sit down and started chatting about family matters. They shared each other's daily lives, and their laughter continued to echo in the room.

Caiyue stood aside, looking at her young lady's happy face, she couldn't help but feel happy for her young lady.

She knew that since coming to this strange place, the young lady had always missed her hometown and relatives. Now that the lady could come to the palace to accompany the young lady, the young lady was naturally happy.

"Is the emperor good to you?" Mrs. Shen finally couldn't help but ask.

"The Emperor is very kind to me. He treats me with great favor."

Huipin said softly, with a happy smile on her face. Thinking of the time she spent with the emperor, her heart was filled with sweetness and warmth.

The emperor was indeed very good to her at the beginning, caring for her in every possible way and giving her constant rewards.

"He was given a plaque, given green chrysanthemums, and allowed to study and assist in the management of the six palaces. These are all honors that no one else has."

"That's good, mother will be relieved!"

Mrs. Shen responded with a smile, a hint of comfort in her eyes.

Huipin is grateful for everything the emperor has given her, and is willing to repay this love with her sincerity and be devoted to the emperor wholeheartedly.

However, fate dealt her a heavy blow. If it weren't for Concubine Hua's frame-up, she would have always been able to treat the emperor sincerely, but she can't do that now.

Seeing how cruel the emperor was to her, he refused to listen to any of her excuses.

From that moment on, she no longer had any trust in the emperor.

She could no longer love the emperor as wholeheartedly as before because her heart had been hurt too deeply.

That love is no longer pure, but is mixed with pain and helplessness.

"Mother, I know that the emperor is the ruler of the world, not just my husband." Huipin's voice was calm and firm.

"I will do what I should do. I am not only Huipin, but also the daughter of the Shen family. I bear the honor and disgrace of the Shen family."

Mrs. Shen listened quietly, with a look of relief in her eyes.

She gently patted Huipin's hand and said, "My child, I am relieved that you can think this way. However, you must also protect yourself and don't let others bully you. After all, the people in the harem are treacherous, and the open and covert struggles never stop."
