The Legend of Zhen Huan Reborn: Overthrowing Zhen Huan to Become the Queen Mother

In the afternoon, Yuan Beishan, the head eunuch of Suiyuxuan, brought in a fat eunuch, followed by two skinny little eunuchs.

The wet nurse sang a song to coax the little prince to sleep.

Seeing several people come in, Jiang Ruyin nodded and motioned them to follow him to the outer room.

Yuan Beishan bowed and said, "Your Majesty, this is Kang Luhai, the palace maid from the East Consort Hall. She said that Concubine Li wanted them to go."

Kang Luhai frowned and added, "It is really a coincidence that this servant is here to pay his respects to Concubine Fang. It is because I was also a senior eunuch in the past, and somehow I caught the eye of Concubine Li. That's why the eunuch from the Imperial Household Department came to tell me this."

Jiang Ruyin smiled faintly, "Oh, so Concubine Li has taken a fancy to you, and not only did she not inform me, she also took your two apprentices with her?"

Kang Luhai's face changed, and then he smiled flatteringly, "Your Majesty, you don't know. I think Concubine Li just wants to avoid disturbing you and the young prince for a humble servant like me."

Jiang Ruyin looked at the three of them and suddenly asked, "Wan Da Ying's position should have a eunuch serving her. You all left. Could it be that you saw that Wan Da Ying was out of favor and wanted to curry favor with the powerful?"

Kang Luhai also felt a little guilty. "Wan promised that he would be haggard these days, and he just said that he doesn't need so many people to serve him. That's why I wanted to take these two useless apprentices with me."

Jiang Ruyin sneered, "Wan promised that you don't know the rules, and you are also an old man in the palace. Why are the palace servants directly dispatched by the Ministry of Internal Affairs without the consent of the master?"

Kang Luhai dared not say anything more. He kowtowed like crazy, shouting in his heart that he had committed a sin.

Jiang Ruyin acted impatient and waved her hand. "If you want to go to Qixiang Palace, go ahead. But since Concubine Hua is in charge of the six palaces, Concubine Li will naturally follow the rules. Tell Huang Guiquan of the Ministry of Internal Affairs about this. I want to see if it's Huang Guiquan or Kang Luhai who doesn't understand the rules. Whoever made the mistake will be punished."

Yuan Beishan pursed his lips, suppressed his smile, and asked someone to drag the person away.

Kang Luhai's face turned pale, and he was filled with despair. Then he thought, Lipin was very concerned about her reputation. If Fangpin was so dissatisfied and didn't give Lipin face, Lipin would definitely not sit idly by. He immediately stopped struggling and let the palace servants drag him out.

Jiang Ruyin casually cast her eyes on the two people lying on the ground like sieve chaff.

"Where are you two?"

Xiao Yinzi gritted his teeth and kowtowed loudly, "I, Xiao Hezi, am a eunuch in the East Side Palace, and naturally I am also your servant. I will obey your orders."

Xiao Hezi looked at him stupidly and imitated him, "My servant Xiao Hezi is from the East Side Palace, no, I am a eunuch serving Wan Da Ying, and I obey the orders of the Empress."

Jiang Ruyin chuckled, "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm just afraid that you will be led astray by Kang Luhai. Just follow the rules in the future. Come with me." She pointed to the gate of Shuiyuxuan.

The two hesitated for a moment, then bowed again before leaving.

As soon as the figure disappeared, Suo Chun couldn't wait to ask, "Just let these dog slaves go like this?"

Jiang Ruyin lazily leaned against the soft pillow, "Not everyone can offend me. As for those two little eunuchs, they are just clowns. If I make things difficult for them, I will hurt my heart."

Night came,

Liu Zhu jumped and rubbed his hands as he entered the East Side Hall. "My Lady! My Lady! Guess what I found out?"

After she finished speaking, she couldn't wait to continue, "That Kang Luhai was taken to the Imperial Household Department by Concubine Fang's order and received ten beatings with boards!"

She was so happy, her mind full of the joy of Kang Luhai being taught a lesson, that she didn't even notice the expressions of Zhen Huan, Cui Jinxi and Huanbi.

"Kang Luhai has really hit a tough nut this time. Don't you know...ah, Huanbi, what are you doing?"

Huanbi frowned and pinched Liuzhu, who was stunned.

"My lady, I, I didn't mean that..." She glanced at Cui Jinxi.

I saw the other person lowering his head and eyes, with no expression.

Zhen Huan pursed her lips. "You're right. Concubine Fang is indeed a stickler for rules. Liu Zhu didn't say anything wrong. Huanbi, if you try to stop her from doing something, don't let people think we have any complaints against Concubine Fang."

Cui Jinxi forced a smile and agreed, "Yes, Concubine Fang's reputation for fairness is widely known."

Liu Zhu looked at Zhen Huan in surprise, then at Huanbi.

Huanbi let out a heavy breath, "I just feel sorry for the young lady. We haven't offended her, but she keeps..."

"Miss Huanbi!" Cui Jinxi called her hurriedly, and Huanbi looked at her in confusion.

Cui Jinxi pointed to the vague shadow outside the window.

Zhen Huan feigned calmness and called out, "Who's outside?"

Xiao Yunzi replied, "It is my servant, Xiao Yunzi, I am here to take up my duty."

Zhen Huan breathed a sigh of relief, and so did Huanbi.

Huanbi said, "Our young master is kind-hearted and has never treated little Yunzi unfairly. He dare not say anything nonsense."

Cui Jinxi hesitated for a moment, "After all, this is not our own place, we have to be careful of ears."

Zhen Huan agreed, "Jin Xi is right, let's not talk about this anymore. Little Yunzi is the only eunuch left now, and it's not a good idea to leave him alone in the corridor every day. Liu Zhu, let him go back and rest first. From now on, he will only keep watch every three days."

Seeing Liu Zhu persuade Xiao Yunzi to leave, Huanbi wanted to say something, but was stopped by Zhen Huan with a look.

"Liu Zhu, Jin Xi. I'm tired. You guys go down first."

Cui Jinxi could see what Zhen Huan meant, so she said "eh" and pulled Liu Zhu away.

Zhen Huan said angrily, "What's wrong with you now? Why have you become more impetuous since entering the palace? Things are different now. We are in the palace, not at home. Do you think you can talk about the master's position casually? If people find out, will you still want your head?"

Huanbi lowered her head and said aggrievedly, "My lady, can't you see it? Isn't Concubine Fang targeting you? Just because we look somewhat similar, she has criticized you many times before, making you lose face... I, I grew up with you. I feel sorry for you." As she spoke, she looked at Zhen Huan, her eyes red.

Zhen Huan sighed, pulled Huanbi over to sit, and wiped her tears. "The thing the palace has the most is people, but people's hearts are unpredictable. There's no guarantee that there won't be people who will gossip about you for the sake of wealth and glory. I know you care about me, and I'm also worried that you'll get into trouble."

Huanbi listened and couldn't help but shed tears.
