The Rebirth of Li Fei: The Strongest Palace Fighting System

"Baojuan,"

I whispered:

"Come with me to Suiyuxuan to see Sister Zhen. We've been busy these days and haven't visited her for a long time."

......

Suiyuxuan is elegant and peaceful, like a paradise far away from the hustle and bustle of the world.

Zhen Huan and I sat on the soft couch in the pavilion, surrounded by a table with an exquisite incense burner and various spices. The air was filled with a light fragrance, which was refreshing.

We chatted about family matters, shared what we saw and heard in the palace, and our happy and sad thoughts.

"Sister, you're really talented. You've been working on the recipe for this lily fragrance for seven or eight days now, and you're still not tired."

I said to Zhen Huan with a smile.

"The night is long and lonely, and I always have to find something to do to pass the time."

"Didn't the Emperor come to see my sister?"

"I came here for lunch six days ago. Huanbi and I were with me. I haven't been here since."

"Sister, you remember it so clearly. I can't even remember the date. But since you were ordered to look after Huanbi's dragon fetus, your house arrest has been lifted. The Emperor, under the pretext of visiting Huanbi, occasionally comes to Suiyuxuan to see you, which is not bad."

Zhen Huan seemed calm, but I knew she was a little melancholy:

"In autumn, all the white flowers have died, leaving only Concubine Hua standing out. Let her enjoy her life, and we enjoy ours."

At this time, Xiaotao pulled my sleeve beside me.

Zhen Huan couldn't see Xiao Tao, so I kept a blank expression on my face, but in reality I was listening to what Xiao Tao said:

"My lady! Xiao Tao just went out to play and went to the Yikun Palace. She saw the emperor was with Concubine Hua, so she went in. But guess what she heard? Concubine Hua wanted Zhou Ninghai to invite Zhen Huan to play the piano. Isn't this treating Zhen Huan like a geisha?"

Although I was a little surprised, because Zhen Huan was here, I tried my best to restrain myself from showing any strange expression.

Thinking back to my previous life, I remember that Concubine Hua had summoned me to sing a song, but I never expected it would be today.

Now, why did Zhen Huan play the piano instead? I really couldn't figure out the reason, and I couldn't help but feel a little confused.

However, in this situation, I knew it was inconvenient to ask more questions, so I had to suppress this doubt for the time being.

At this time, Xiao Tao came close to my ear and whispered:

"My lady, why don't you come out for a while, away from Zhen Huan, and use the Flower Shadow Axis to see what's going on?"

Hearing this, I had an idea and thought it was a good idea.

The Flower Shadow Axis can peek into distant scenes without being noticed. If you use this, you might be able to uncover some clues.

"Sister, sister? What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Zhen Huan interrupted me from my thoughts.

"I caught a cold this morning, but it will be fine in two days. Sister, I need to change my clothes right now... I'll be right back. Oh, by the way, I've been thinking about it for a few days and finally thought of a few more spices that can be used."

"Okay, sister, go ahead... You can talk later and I'll write."

......

I quietly left Shuiyuxuan and found a quiet and deserted corner.

Xiaotao took out the mysterious flower shadow axis from her sleeve and handed it to me with both hands.

I unfolded it carefully, and in an instant, the flower shadow axis bloomed with a soft and bright pink light under the moonlight, like the gentlest stars in the night sky, so beautiful that it was breathtaking.

As the flower shadow axis slowly unfolded, a clear picture slowly appeared before my eyes - it was the scene inside the Yiku Palace.

......

Inside the Yiku Palace, candlelight flickered and the palace was magnificent. Every inch of the space exuded luxury and nobility.

The furnishings in the palace are exquisite and sophisticated, and the green smoke rising from the incense burners adds a touch of mystery and tranquility to this solemn place.

The emperor and Concubine Hua sat on the exquisite couch, one on each side, their demeanor revealing endless dignity and affection.

"emperor,"

Concubine Hua spoke coquettishly, with a hint of coquettishness in her voice.

"You've been accompanying me all the time these days, and haven't you gone to see the other sisters?"

The emperor laughed heartily upon hearing this:

"Since Concubine Hua is virtuous, I will go and see Concubine Qi and the others."

Concubine Hua quickly stopped him:

"Your Majesty! I am merely asking, but it is late at night and the dew is heavy outside. Your Majesty should not travel."

"I knew you couldn't bear to leave. I really want to spend more time with you, but I have to be busy with the affairs of the former court, and there are many people in the harem. I can't neglect them all for you, right?"

Concubine Hua pretended to be angry and said:

"Your Majesty, when you say this, you're still thinking about others while you're with me. I heard that Your Majesty went to Suiyuxuan for lunch six days ago. I don't know if he went to visit the pregnant Bi Changzai, or if he had other intentions..."

"You are just being angry with me."

Concubine Hua gently tugged at the emperor's collar with her delicate fingers:

"Humph, Zhen promised to be released from house arrest because he took care of Bi Changzai's dragon fetus, but he is still guilty."

"I feel there are still many unclear points regarding the cassava flour issue."

Concubine Hua was stunned for a moment, a hint of displeasure flashing across her face. But she quickly changed the subject:

"Your Majesty has always enjoyed listening to Lady Zhen play the zither, but it's been a while since I last heard her. Now that Lady Zhen has been released from her confinement and can travel more easily, why not invite her to play a piece of music so that Your Majesty and I can enjoy it together."

"It's late at night, why bother asking someone to go there?"

"Your Majesty~"

"But if you like, just ask her to come."

"Zhou Ninghai, go and invite him."

......

I slowly brought my hands together and gently closed the flower shadow axis.

At that moment, the pink light it emitted seemed to be gently retracted, gradually dimming, and finally turning into a tiny ray of light and disappearing into the night.

I handed her the flower shadow scroll and motioned her to put it away, and then we hurriedly set out on the road back to Sui Yuxuan.

The night breeze blew by, bringing a hint of coolness. I tightened my clothes and quickened my pace. Fortunately, I wasn't out for too long, so it shouldn't arouse Zhen Huan's suspicion.

Ever since I decided to join Concubine Hua, I have become more cautious in my actions and have kept my interactions with her low-key to avoid attracting attention.

What comforts me is that Concubine Hua has never made things difficult for me since then.

I remember that in my previous life, she ordered me to sing in Yiku Palace, but in this life, it was Zhen Huan who went to play the piano.

I thought for a moment and decided that I would accompany Zhen Huan on this journey in this life.

This is not because of sisterly love, but more because I want to take this opportunity to see the emperor again and see if I can find a chance to increase my index a little.

Furthermore, I am now in Suiyuxuan. If I ignore Zhen Huan's request, it may make her suspicious and affect the "sisterly love" between us.

......

"My sister's worries are all written on it."

"what happened?"

"Sister, you are so knowledgeable, how come you even misspelled the character '藿' in 藿香? Where did Caotou go? My heart has gone with the emperor, and even Caotou has flown away with it!"
