The Rebirth of Li Fei: The Strongest Palace Fighting System

The emperor pondered for a moment and then spoke slowly:

"This matter is indeed serious. As the head of the harem, Queen, you must be more cautious in your words and actions. You should pay more attention to Concubine Hua in the future. She has the power to assist in the management of the six palaces, and I believe she can do things in a thoughtful manner."

Upon hearing this, the Queen, although unwilling in her heart, could only bow and accept the order:

"The minister and concubine follow the order."

......

The development of this situation can be considered quite satisfactory.

I secretly rejoiced that I was not implicated and that I had saved Xia Dongchun's dragon fetus. This undoubtedly ensured my promotion after the dragon fetus was born.

At the same time, Hua Fei further consolidated her position in the harem as the assistant manager of the six palaces in this incident. She must have been very happy.

It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone.

Leaving Jingren Palace, the sunlight shone on the bluestone road, and I inadvertently caught a glimpse of Huanbi, who had come to pay her respects but had been standing silently by the side.

Her figure swayed gently in the breeze, and she seemed to be thinking about something.

My heart moved, and I remembered another important task that Zhen Huan had entrusted to me - to support Huanbi.

After everyone dispersed, I quickened my pace and caught up with Huanbi.

When she saw me approaching, she quickly bowed and greeted me:

"This concubine pays her respects to Lady An."

I smiled and helped her up, with a hint of warmth and intimacy in my eyes:

"Huanbi, why should we sisters be so distant from each other?"

"Sister is a noble lady, and I promised myself that I should not break the rules in public."

I gently patted the back of her hand, signaling that she didn't need to be so reserved:

"Between you and me, why should we bother with these empty formalities? I was thinking of going to Shuiyuxuan to see Sister Zhen. How about we go together?"

"Of course."

So, the two of us walked side by side, slowly heading towards Shuiyuxuan.

.....

Stepping into Suiyuxuan, the tranquility inside forms a sharp contrast with the chaos outside.

Huanbi and I entered the room one after the other. Zhen Huan was sitting by the window, holding a book with a concentrated look. When she saw us come in, she put down the book and smiled slightly.

Huanbi and I talked one by one about what had just happened in Jingren Palace, from the sudden appearance of the Queen, to Xia Dongchun's panic, to Hua Fei's relentless pressure, and we told every detail.

After hearing this, Zhen Huan frowned slightly, with a hint of worry in her eyes:

"No matter what, if you're pregnant, you have to be extremely careful. Food and smell incompatibilities are hard to prevent and can inevitably harm the fetus. So, while having a child is happy news, it also comes with a heavy weight of worry."

Huanbi sighed softly upon hearing this, with a look of loneliness on her face:

"I haven't seen the Emperor in over a year. It's wishful thinking to even think about such concerns. However, the way Concubine Hua just now took advantage of me was truly disheartening. The harem is truly filled with strife."

Zhen Huan turned to look at Huanbi, a hint of inquiry and encouragement flashed in her eyes:

"Huanbi, if you are not afraid of the ups and downs that come with being favored, you can try to fight for it. In this harem, if you don't fight or compete, it is often difficult to gain a foothold."

Huanbi smiled bitterly and shook her head:

"I'm just a humble servant. Even seeing the emperor is as hard as ascending to heaven. How can I possibly compete for his favor?"

Zhen Huan gently patted the back of Huanbi's hand and said earnestly:

"Opportunities always come to those who are prepared. If you are determined, there will always be a way. Remember, in this harem, no one can rely on others forever. Only by becoming strong yourself can you be truly strong."

I smiled slightly, looked at Huanbi, and suggested:

"Last time in the Old Summer Palace, thanks to Sister Zhen's meticulous dressing up for me, I had the honor of meeting the Emperor and was promoted to a noble lady. It turns out that dressing up is also a science. Why don't we try to dress up Huanbi this time? Maybe we'll get something unexpected?"

Huanbi heard this, but just shook her head slightly, with a helpless look on her face:

"What's the point of dressing up? I dress neatly every day, but the emperor never even looks at me."

I patted Huanbi's shoulder and encouraged her:

"Huanbi, don't lose heart. If you can dress up to please the Emperor, and if we can find a way to get him to see you, he will definitely summon you."

A hint of hesitation flashed across Huanbi's face, as if she couldn't believe it:

"How can I dress up to please the Emperor? It's too difficult."

"It's actually not that difficult. If you look closely, you'll find that you have some similarities between your eyebrows and eyes and Sister Zhen's. If you can imitate Sister Zhen's makeup and temperament, you might be able to attract the Emperor's attention. After all, the Emperor dotes on Sister Zhen."

I patted her hand and continued:

"Believe me, you can do it. As long as you study hard and imitate, you will definitely gain something. What's more, we have other sisters to help you with advice and strategies. If we work together, you will definitely be able to do it!"

A hint of displeasure flashed across Huanbi's face, and I realized the backbone and self-respect in her heart.

She was unwilling to win the emperor's favor by imitating others.

However, Zhen Huan was playing the drums on the side, her voice was soft but with a power that could not be ignored:

"Huanbi, it's all well and good to have thousands of ideas in your mind, but if you don't bravely take the first step, and you can't even see the Emperor, then everything will be just wishful thinking. The current situation is that you have advantages that others can't match. Why isn't this an opportunity worth trying?"

I took over Zhen Huan's words and comforted her softly:

"Yes, Huanbi, just look at Sisters Shen Mei and Zhuang Mei and you'll understand. They both experienced demotion and house arrest, but the current situation of Sui Yuxuan is much better than that of Cun Ju Tang. This reveals the Emperor's deep feelings for Sister Zhen. If you can cleverly use this similarity, perhaps you can really become the key to unlocking the Emperor's heart."

Huanbi lowered her head in thought, with struggle and hesitation in her brow.

I can feel her inner struggle. She is unwilling to go against her principles, but she also longs to find her own place in the harem.

"Ok."

Huanbi thought about it for a long time and finally agreed.

We walked into the side room together, and Zhen Huan carefully selected a set of clothes that she wore every day from the closet. The clothes were of elegant colors and exquisite embroidery, which perfectly brought out the gentleness and softness of a woman.

Afterwards, Cui Jinxi skillfully combed Huanbi's hair. She cleverly imitated the bun that Zhen Huan usually wore, striving for perfection in every detail.

As Cui Jinxi's skillful hands flew, Huanbi's originally ordinary hairstyle gradually became dignified and elegant, which was very different from her usual appearance.

Next, Zhen Huan personally put on makeup for Huanbi. She carefully painted Huanbi's eyebrows and eyes, and skillfully used rouge and powder to make Huanbi's already bright eyes even more sparkling, and her eyebrows added a bit of charm similar to Zhen Huan.
