The Rebirth of Li Fei: The Strongest Palace Fighting System

I followed the emperor to the Suiyu Pavilion. Before I even entered, I heard bursts of joyful noise coming from inside.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw Cui Jinxi, with a cheerful face and two wet nurses, coming to greet me. She bowed respectfully and said:

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! Concubine Wan has given birth to twin princesses!"

Upon hearing this, the Emperor's face lit up with incredible joy, and his voice rose a few notches:

"What? Two at once?!"

His eyes were shining with excitement and joy, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

Cui Jinxi confirmed again:

"Yes, Your Majesty, they are a lovely pair of princesses."

The emperor nodded happily and walked to Zhen Huan's bed. I watched him gently hold Zhen Huan's hand, his eyes full of affection and love, and he whispered:

"Hanhuan, you've already given birth to two princesses for me. Do you still want to act on impulse? I've decided that no matter what the Zhen family does, I won't take my anger out on you. You're still my favorite concubine, and I'll treat you the same as before."

Zhen Huan did not appreciate it:

"In the past? Your Majesty, do you think we can go back to the past? I want to leave, and I will choose the name of the child. Please grant my wish, Your Majesty."

"it is good."

"The one born first will be named Wanwan."

"Wanwan?"

The emperor was a little surprised.

"Long hair binds your heart..."

"The one born later, let me choose the name. The moon is hazy—let's call it Hazy Moon."

"I thank the Emperor for his kindness. I am in an unlucky state and dare not disturb the peace of the palace."

"It's better for you to go early. You can't stay in the palace anymore."

The emperor was angry.

At this time, Zhen Huan got out of bed, slowly knelt down and said:

"I have one more favor to ask of you."

"You said."

"Your Majesty, please appoint Consort Hui as a concubine to raise Princess Wanwan. As for Princess Longyue, I hope Consort Jing can raise her. If so, I will have no regrets leaving the palace."

"Su Peisheng!"

The Emperor saw that Zhen Huan was determined to leave, and angrily called Su Peisheng:

"I hereby decree that Consort Hui be appointed Consort Hui and raise Princess Wanwan, while Consort Jing will raise Princess Longyue."

“Hmm…”

At this time, Shen Meizhuang, with tears in her eyes, knelt down and pleaded:

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Since you have appointed me as a concubine, I beg Your Majesty to allow me to move to Suiyuxuan. With Huan'er out of the palace, Suiyuxuan will no longer have a master, and Princess Luyin will be left without anyone to take care of her. Please allow me to take care of Princess Luyin."

"allow."

Seeing the emperor's rage, Su Peisheng said cautiously:

"Your Majesty, there is one more matter, concerning the cold palace."

"Say it!"

The emperor was furious.

"Yes, Your Majesty... The Emperor is overjoyed and has just sent the Imperial Physician to treat Nian, who is in the Cold Palace. The Imperial Physician has sent someone to report that Nian is already one month pregnant."

"what?!"

The emperor was a little bit unbelievable.

After a long time, he slowly spoke, with a hint of determination in his voice:

"Nian Gengyao has committed suicide. I consider that two princesses have just been born, and that Concubine An is pregnant with a prince, so I do not wish to kill them all. Since Concubine Nian is already pregnant, I will restore her to the rank of Concubine Nian. No further titles are required. Let her return to the Yikun Palace and be well cared for. The imperial maid Songzhi will look after the unborn child."

Su Peisheng heard it clearly and responded quickly:

"Well, I will go and pass on the imperial edict."

After saying this, he turned and hurried away to carry out the emperor's order.

The Emperor turned his head, looked at Zhen Huan and asked:

"Do you have anything else to say to me?"

Zhen Huan kowtowed:

"The red string is broken, the bright mirror is cracked, the morning dew has dried, and the fragrance has faded. The white-haired man sings, sad about the separation, eat hard and don't miss me, the Jinshui River is flowing, and I bid you farewell forever."

......

Three days later.

In the early morning, the sunlight shines into my bedroom through the window lattice. I sit in front of the mirror with a bit of laziness, while Xiaotao combs my long hair.

Suddenly, she whispered:

"Your Majesty, today is the day Zhen Huan leaves the palace for Ganlu Temple. Shen Meizhuang and Wen Shichu have both gone to see her off. Will Your Majesty not go and see her off?"

I gently stroked my bulging belly, a complex expression in my eyes:

"Forget it, Xiao Tao. Zhen Huan has officially turned against me. I'm sure Shen Meizhuang and Wen Shichu will also become my enemies because of her. There's no point in me going to see her off. It will only make things awkward."

Xiao Tao nodded slightly when she heard this, as if she was also lamenting the complicated interpersonal relationships in the palace.

After a moment, she seemed to remember something and continued:

"My Lady, do you remember? At this time in the previous life, Zhen Huan only gave birth to one princess. Now, there are two."

When I heard this, I couldn't help but feel doubtful and frowned slightly.

"Yeah, this is indeed a bit strange. Could it be that the trajectory of fate has changed?"

Xiao Tao blinked and smiled playfully:

"Your Majesty, you may not know that in her previous life, Zhen Huan lost her first pregnancy and lost the child. She only gave birth to Princess Longyue in her second pregnancy. In this life, however, she successfully gave birth to twins in her first pregnancy and even left the palace early. Furthermore, after Zhen Huan returned to the palace, she gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl. She already had a physique that allows her to have twins, so it's not surprising that she gave birth to twins this time. In other words, this child was meant to be."

I nodded when I heard that, but I was thinking secretly in my heart.

After a moment, my eyes became stern, as if I had made up my mind:

"Then this time, we must find a way to prevent Zhen Huan from returning to the palace. We must not allow her to have another chance to stir up trouble in this palace."

I thought about it and said:

"Zhen Huan's decision to leave the fetus in the care of the Empress was indeed a wise one, but Huichun failed to take advantage of this opportunity for advancement. However, the calculations and struggles behind this never cease."

Xiao Tao's expression became serious when she heard this:

"Yes, Your Majesty. That day, I went to the cold palace and Ran Dong was there. She actually told Nian Shilan the truth about Huan Yixiang. It was truly heartbreaking. Nian Shilan was so heartbroken after hearing it that she wanted to bang her head against the wall. Fortunately, I was quick to pull her back and she was fine, she just fainted."

Hearing this, I couldn't help but feel for Nian Shilan's experience, and at the same time admire Xiaotao's wit and bravery:

"Xiao Tao, you're awesome. It's really not easy to rescue Nian Shilan under those circumstances."

"Then, Xiao Tao secretly pried open Nian Shilan's mouth and put the 'pregnancy pill' into her mouth. The Queen knew everything that happened afterwards."

I looked at Xiaotao with satisfaction and praised:

"Xiao Tao is amazing. Three days ago, I went to the Yangxin Palace to plead for Concubine Nian. Not only did I win the Emperor's favor, but I think the Emperor's favor index will also increase as a result. Plus, Zhen Huan's baby was born safely, Concubine Nian was rescued and confirmed to be pregnant. So, our favor index should have increased quite a bit now, right?"

Xiao Tao heard this and smiled smugly. She counted carefully on her fingers:

"Your Majesty, it has really increased quite a bit! Our current favor index is already 49% of the Imperial Concubine rank!"
