The Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of An Lingrong: Counterattack to Become the Queen Mother
Chapter 49: Conspiracy gradually emerges, friendship shines like light
"Chun'er, it's so rare that you have such a heart!" Zhen Huan looked at Chun'er with a smile, her eyes full of satisfaction. She gently touched Chun'er's head, just like treating her own sister. Chun'er raised her head and looked at Zhen Huan proudly, her little face slightly flushed with excitement.
"However, we cannot underestimate the enemy. Recently I heard that the Queen seems to have made new moves." Mei Zhuang frowned, her expression a little solemn. Her hands unconsciously clenched the handkerchief, and there was a hint of worry in her eyes.
"Sister Meizhuang, what else can the Queen do now that she is under house arrest? Could it be her followers?" An Lingrong tilted her head slightly, a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes, her fingers gently twirled around her hair, thinking.
"That's right, Lingrong. Although she is under house arrest, her spies are still all over the harem." Meizhuang nodded slightly, her eyes becoming sharper. "I heard that the nanny beside her often secretly meets with a young eunuch near the imperial kitchen."
"The Imperial Kitchen? What are they doing there? Are they planning to tamper with the food?" Zhen Huan's face changed, her eyes filled with fear. Her hand unconsciously touched her chest, and she said with lingering fear, "This is too cruel!"
"We have to find out! We can't let them succeed!" Chun'er jumped up, her little face flushed with anger, her eyes wide open, burning with flames of anger.
"Chun'er, don't worry. If we rush over like this and get discovered, we'll alert the enemy." An Lingrong quickly pulled Chun'er back and gently patted her shoulder, trying to calm her down. Chun'er bit her lip and stamped her feet angrily, but she still stopped.
"Lingrong is right. We have to think of a comprehensive plan." Zhen Huan nodded slightly, her eyes became deep. She paced back and forth, frowning, thinking about countermeasures.
"I have an idea!" Mei Zhuang's eyes lit up. "We can have the people in the kitchen keep an eye on the eunuch and see if he behaves in any unusual way. Then we can make a plan."
"This is a good idea! Sister Meizhuang is so smart." An Lingrong praised, with a smile on her face and her eyes full of admiration for Meizhuang.
A few days later, a maid from the kitchen came to report: "My dear ladies, that eunuch often puts some powder into the food when no one is paying attention. I don't know what it is."
"What?! This bitch!" Zhen Huan was so angry that her face turned pale, her lips trembling slightly, and her eyes were full of anger, "She actually wanted to poison us!"
"We can't just sit there and wait for death! We have to get the evidence!" A trace of determination flashed in An Lingrong's eyes. She clenched her fists tightly, and the blue veins on the back of her hands bulged slightly.
"Yes! We must expose her true colors!" Chun'er also echoed, with a determined light flashing in her eyes, her fists clenched, and her body slightly leaning forward, like a small beast ready to attack.
So, they decided to catch the young eunuch the next time he made a move. That day, everyone set up an ambush near the imperial kitchen early. Zhen Huan hid behind a water vat, her eyes fixed on the direction where the young eunuch might appear, her eyes focused and nervous, her hands unconsciously gripping the edge of the vat, her knuckles turning white. An Lingrong was in a corner, slightly hunched over, holding her breath, holding a handkerchief in her hand, just in case. Mei Zhuang and Chun Er also took their positions, expressions serious.
Not long after, the young eunuch came stealthily. He looked around to make sure no one was around, then pulled out a small bottle from his bosom and was about to pour it into the ingredients.
"Get started!" Zhen Huan yelled, and everyone rushed forward. The young eunuch turned pale with fear and tried to escape, but Chun'er tripped him and he fell to the ground.
"Hmph! Let's see where you can run!" Chun'er proudly put his hands on his hips, a victorious smile on his face.
"You dog slave! How dare you poison in the imperial kitchen! Tell me! Who ordered you to do that?" Zhen Huan glared at the little eunuch, her eyes seemed to be spewing fire, her chest heaving violently, showing her inner anger.
"My...my lady, please spare me! It was...the nanny beside the Empress who asked me to do this, and I...I didn't want to do it!" The young eunuch was so scared that he was shaking all over and kowtowing repeatedly on the ground.
"It's the Queen! This vicious woman!" Mei Zhuang was so angry that she gritted her teeth. Her hands were clenched tightly, the joints turned white, and her eyes were full of hatred for the Queen.
"Let's go present this evidence to the emperor now!" An Lingrong said with a firm look in her eyes. She picked up the small bottle and put it away carefully.
Everyone came to the emperor's study, and Zhen Huan went forward to tell him everything and presented the small bottle. After hearing this, the emperor's face was terribly gloomy.
"How dare the Queen!" The Emperor slammed the table, his eyes filled with rage. "Pass on my order to thoroughly investigate this matter! If the facts are true, the Queen's crime will be even more severe!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhen Huan and the others smiled at each other, their eyes filled with relief. They knew that this time, they had successfully resolved another crisis, and their friendship had grown deeper through each test. Like an inexhaustible fire, it shone with an unquenchable light amid the harem's numerous conspiracies, illuminating their path forward as they moved step by step towards the throne of the Harem Master, writing their own legendary story.
"However, we cannot let our guard down. The Queen's party will not give up." An Lingrong frowned slightly, a trace of worry flashing in her eyes.
"Well, let's continue to be cautious, protecting ourselves and our friendship." Zhen Huan said firmly, holding An Lingrong's hand. The others nodded in agreement. They knew that this harem battle was far from over, but as long as they were united, there was nothing to fear. In this ever-changing harem, they would continue to write their own legends.
