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

At the same time, Suo Chun was leading a group of palace maids to Chunxi Palace.

Suo Chun entered Shou'an Gate unimpeded and saw a green figure.

"Huanbi, please inform Concubine Wan that I am here to deliver a reward to Concubine Wan on the orders of Concubine Fang." Suochun said with a smile.

Upon hearing her voice, Huanbi frowned fiercely and looked her up and down: "I know, wait."

Suochun's smile remained unchanged, and she said sinisterly, "Empress Fang is busy with palace affairs, young lady, you have to hurry."

Huanbi paused, then ran to the main hall with a sour face.

After a while, Suochun clearly heard a scolding, the voice was very low, and then Liuzhu came out.

"Our queen is free, come in!"

Suochun walked dignifiedly in front, followed by a line of palace maids in uniform attire. Each held an exquisite tray filled with silks, satins, pearls, and other gifts. The procession was quite eye-catching along the palace path, drawing the attention of many passing palace attendants.

After entering the palace, Suochun bowed slightly and said in a loud voice: "Empress Wanpin, Empress Fangfei has a reward and has specially ordered this servant to deliver it to you."

Zhen Huan secretly wondered what Jiang Ruyin was up to. If the only possibility was the assassination last night, how could that be worth rewarding? Zhen Huan's face still showed just the right amount of respect and doubt.

Suochun had a faint smile on her lips, but her eyes were distant. She waved her hand, and the palace maids came forward one by one and placed the tray steadily on the sandalwood table.

"Empress Wanpin, Empress Fang has prepared these specially for you because of your dedicated service to the Emperor. I hope you like them." Suochun said slowly, his eyes lightly sweeping over the rewards.

She pointed at the colorful silk with her bare hands and said, "This is the famous Hangzhou silk, with a variety of gorgeous colors and an extraordinary soft texture. Hangzhou silk is gorgeous and it is best embellished with gold and jade, so our queen also selected these jewelry. Look,"

She picked up a piece of silk and spread it out in front of Zhen Huan. "After entering the palace, Concubine Wan and the Emperor first met in the Plum Blossom Garden, so the Empress had me pick out these ones with plum blossom patterns. The Emperor also likes them very much, and I think Concubine Wan will like them too."

Huanbi couldn't help but say, "Our queen has always disliked gold jewelry. Isn't it your queen who likes gold jewelry?"

"Huanbi! Don't be rude!" Zhen Huan scolded harshly, then bowed apologetically and said gently: "Your Majesty is thoughtful and has troubled Miss Suochun to make this trip. I am very grateful for your concern, Concubine Fang, and will remember it in my heart." After that, she ordered Liu Zhu to get some silver and money to reward Suochun and others.

Suochun took a step back, glanced at Huanbi with a forced smile, and said meaningfully, "The Emperor also approves of our Empress's intentions. Concubine Wan is partial to those close to her, so please don't show this to the Emperor. If you do, even if we don't want to follow Concubine Hua's example, we will be forced to punish her."

Zhen Huan's eyelids twitched, and she said sternly, "Huanbi, you heard what Miss Suochun said, why didn't you slap her?"

Huanbi's legs trembled, and she wanted to run out again. Zhen Huan saw her intention and called out again, "Huanbi."

Suochun raised his eyebrows and looked at her. Huanbi made up her mind and hit herself a few times.

Suochun frowned slightly and said only, "Since Her Majesty has already punished, I will take my leave." After that, she led the palace maids and slowly left according to the rules when they came, leaving Zhen Huan standing there, looking at the pile of rewards thoughtfully, with her brows slightly furrowed.

As soon as Suochun turned around, Huanbi burst into tears. She waited until the last of them disappeared from her sight before she sobbed, "Yesterday when I went to invite the emperor, she was the one who raised her eyebrows and raised her eyes. Today she comes here to show off again. Big sister, can't you see at all? I just can't stand her look!"

When the eldest sister appeared, Liuzhu was stunned and Huanbi ran out sobbing.

"Ah? Your Majesty, the eldest sister? Huanbi has a sister?" Liu Zhu asked in confusion.

Zhen Huan rubbed her forehead with a headache, "Don't worry about her."

Cui Jinxi was originally told to rest today, but seeing that Suo Chun was making a big fuss, she took the opportunity when they were away to go to the main hall to find out what was going on.

"My Lady, what's going on? Miss Huanbi?"

Zhen Huan shook her head. "Nothing, Aunt Jingxi, look at this silk."

Cui Jinxi picked up the top piece nearby and said, "This is Hangzhou silk, it's really beautiful and comfortable to the touch, but it's not the color your majesty likes." She looked at it over and over again, then leaned in to smell it and said to Zhen Huan, "It doesn't seem to have anything special about it."

Zhen Huan's eyes were heavy. "Su Dongpo once wrote 'A Play on Bathing a Child' during the third-day bathing ceremony for the son born to his concubine Wang Zhaoyun,' lamenting that his cleverness had backfired."

Cui Jinxi seemed to be lost in thought. Liu Zhu was puzzled and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

Zhen Huan continued, "Wang Zhaoyun was from Hangzhou. Su Dongpo wrote 'Xijiang Yue - Plum Blossoms' after her death. Concubine Fang sent this bright Hangzhou silk and specifically mentioned plum blossoms. I have to think twice."

Cui Jinxi said, "People in the palace say that Concubine Fang follows the rules and regulations and seems to have no outstanding features except her appearance. But who is perfect? ​​And Concubine Fang is flawless. This shows that this person is very scheming. Your Majesty's thoughts are not unreasonable."

Liu Zhu suddenly realized, "This Concubine Fang is really... The Queen was almost hurt, and Aunt Jinxi was even stabbed, and she still added insult to injury. How could she be so cruel!"

"After this, Concubine Fang will be in charge of the six palaces. I'm afraid there will be no less attacks against us." Cui Jinxi was worried and started to think in her mind.

A gloomy glint flashed in Zhen Huan's eyes. "Isn't there another experienced and experienced consort in the palace? It's not necessarily the case that Concubine Fang has the final say."

Cui Jinxi frowned, "Concubine Duan is frail and ill, so I'm afraid she doesn't have the energy to argue with Concubine Fang. Besides, Concubine Hua is now out of power. If Concubine Duan appears in our sight, I'm afraid Concubine Hua will really go crazy."

Zhen Huan seemed to be thinking, "Is that so? The harem has always been one person after another. I am afraid that she will appear on her own soon without our planning."

Seeing that Zhen Huan was still obsessed with Concubine Duan, Cui Jinxi moved her lips, "I heard that..."

......

At night, the palace maids in Chunxi Palace became busy. Liu Zhu was serving Zhen Huan meals, so several young eunuchs began to prepare firewood to boil water, and the other palace maids also had meals in their respective rooms.

At this time, Jin Xi, who was supposed to be recuperating in the room, came to a corner of Shou'an Palace in the night. She tied the paper note on the pigeon's feet again, looked around, and then untied the woolen thread on the pigeon's mouth. With both hands, the gray-feathered pigeon cooed and flapped its wings to fly away.
