Warm my heart

Soon everyone gathered.

A voice came from above: "The Queen has arrived..."

The Queen glanced at everyone and said, "Sisters, you've all come so early today. Are you getting used to life in the palace?"

I found that these beauties are all good.

Except for Zhen Huan who looks like an older sister.

There is also a summer, winter and spring.

Although she looks like a butterfly when she is dressed.

But that face is really frightening.

All the concubines stood and saluted: "Thank you for the Queen's concern, everything is fine."

She raised her hand and motioned for everyone to stand up: "Everyone, get up."

All the concubines said in unison: "Thank you, Queen."

The Queen was about to say something more to them.

Suddenly a voice came.

"I'm not too late, am I?"

As soon as I heard the voice, I knew that this person was very arrogant and difficult to get along with.

The hair full of pearls and jades is extremely luxurious at first glance.

Everyone saw Hua Fei coming.

He immediately bowed to Concubine Hua: "Greetings to Her Majesty Hua."

Concubine Hua walked straight up to the Queen.

Qianqian bowed, but before she finished, she stood up and said, "Greetings to the Queen."

Even if the Queen disliked her, she still had to save face: "Sister, please stand up."

Concubine Qi served as the Queen's vanguard.

She immediately expressed her dissatisfaction with Concubine Hua's lateness: "Concubine Hua is really late and made everyone wait."

The tone was full of accusation.

Trying to show his loyalty to the queen.

Hua Fei just responded indifferently.

There was a hint of pride in her words: "The Emperor was late in reading the memorials last night, and I stayed late with him too.

The Emperor refused to let me get up early this morning, so I was late."

Her words hinted at the emperor's favor towards her.

Even in his busy life, the emperor still showed some favor to her.

The emperor was indeed busy with state affairs during this period and had even less time to visit the harem.

Hua Fei's words made everyone feel jealous.

Concubine Hua was very satisfied with the envious looks of the crowd.

She even deliberately looked at the Queen and said, "I hope the Queen is not angry."

Her tone was defiant, trying to test the Queen's reaction.

Although the queen was unhappy in her heart, she still maintained her composure on the surface.

She smiled and said, “Your Majesty has been busy with state affairs these days, so it’s inevitable that he will neglect my sister.

So you should love your sisters extra well, since today you are meeting all of your new sisters.

We'll have more companions from now on."

Seeing that no one spoke.

The eunuch then said loudly: "All the ladies kowtow to the Empress."

The newly arrived concubines immediately bowed deeply to the Empress, shouting, "May the Empress be blessed with good health and happiness."

The Queen raised her hand with a simple and elegant gesture: "Everyone, get up."

All the concubines thanked her in unison: "Thank you, Queen."

Then he paid his respects to Concubine Hua: "May your Majesty Hua live in peace and happiness."

Concubine Hua planned to use this opportunity to give the new concubines a warning.

She didn't ask them to get up immediately.

Instead, she was busy discussing the jadeite sent by the Imperial Household Department with her personal maid, Songzhi: "The jadeite sent by the Imperial Household Department this year is a bit floaty and not transparent at all. This kind of jadeite is becoming increasingly rare."

The Queen responded to Hua Fei's provocation in a more diplomatic way: "My sister is too old to need jade.

The jadeite selected for you by the Ministry of Internal Affairs will naturally be greener in color.

But then again, if you are like this, where else can you find a better jadeite?"

Concubine Hua was not willing to be outdone and continued to complain that the jade was old-fashioned.

He also proposed to give it to the Queen.

The queen responded that she had the Dongzhu.

Dongzhu is a jewel that only the queen can use.

This was undoubtedly a reminder to Concubine Hua that even if she was in favor, she could not surpass the Queen.

The Queen then mentioned that if she accepted Hua Fei's earrings, it would be extravagant.

Finally, the Queen reminded Concubine Hua that the person who was performing the ceremony had not yet stood up.

It seemed that Concubine Hua had no choice but to let them get up.

Hua Fei then called Xia Dongchun out.

Xia Dongchun has learned his lesson this time and bows when asked.

He is very well-behaved and doesn't talk much.

Concubine Hua looked at the beautiful face.

I felt sad in my heart.

Seeing her lowered brow and submissive look was just boring.

Then Concubine Hua called out Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang.

I saw that these two people were standing in the front.

Hua Fei's gaze was as sharp as a knife.

She directly challenged the Queen: "Queen, who arranged their positions?"

The queen's expression changed, she looked carefully and realized the seriousness of the problem.

Zhen Huan still hadn't figured out what it was.

But Shen Meizhuang was trembling.

I regret not declining to stand in the first row.

Shen Meizhuang immediately knelt down and accepted the punishment.

Zhen Huan finally realized what was happening and knelt down as well: "This concubine is new to the palace and does not know the rules. Please punish me, Your Majesty."

Concubine Hua sneered: "You are new to the palace and don't understand the palace rules?

Her words were full of sarcasm.

"It seems that I haven't memorized the palace rules thoroughly. Your Majesty, please decide how to punish me." Hua Fei's words were full of provocation to the Queen.

After weighing the pros and cons, the Queen said, "Hua Fei, how about punishing them by making them copy the palace rules 30 times?"

Hua Fei looked at her coldly and said: "The Queen is really kind."

Seeing this, the Queen continued to add: "Then don't hang the green badge until all the confiscations are completed." Only then did Hua Fei give up, as her goal had been achieved.

She just couldn't stand these bitches competing with her for the emperor's favor.

Finally, the greetings were completed.

As soon as Xia Dongchun came out, he took Caiyun and quickly rushed towards Yongshou Palace.

Later, Zhen Huan called her several times.

She pretended not to hear and didn't dare to stop at all.

She was filled with fear, afraid that it would become like what she had dreamed and be beaten to death.

Xia Dongchun finally returned to Yongshou Palace.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

The tension and fear in my heart were finally relieved.

"This time I finally avoided a scare."

Zhen Huan originally wanted to make friends with Xia Dongchun.

Because she is beautiful.

She herself had to admit that she was a little more beautiful than herself.

Unexpectedly, she looked at her as if she were the god of plague.

Zhen Huan had already been punished and they had no mood to stroll around the garden.

Everyone went back home.

Xia Dongchun received a message in the afternoon.

Zhen Huan is actually sick.

Xia Dongchun was shocked when she heard that it was Wen Shichu who examined her.

She felt that there must be something fishy going on.

But she knew that Wen Shichu liked Xia Dongchun.

Ask that person to keep an eye on them and report any news at any time.

The Empress came to see the Emperor and said, "The newly promoted concubines can sleep with you today. Does Your Majesty still plan to go to Concubine Hua's place?"

The emperor's expression remained unchanged: "Are you testing my feelings?"

The Queen said: "I dare not speculate on the emperor's intentions, so please turn over the cards."

She signaled the eunuch to present the green card.

I was planning to buy the Xia Dongchun brand.

Look at the rows of green cards.

As if he cared about that person very much: "Where is Wan Changzai's green card?"

The queen's face changed. It seemed that the emperor still loved his sister the most.

The queen immediately told him what happened in the afternoon.

The emperor secretly resented it as useless.

But she said, "Not as good as Wanwan."

The queen hated her to death.

But then he said casually, "Since Wan Changzai is ill, then Zhen Changzai will take over."
