The Legend of Zhen Huan Reborn: Overthrowing Zhen Huan to Become the Queen Mother
Chapter 16 Concubine Hua takes action
"It seems that An is the only one who agreed. We have to make plans early."
The queen clasped her fingers together and made a Buddhist salute, "Amitabha, this harem is going to be in chaos again."

That night, the dew was heavy.
Jiang Ruyin was holding a bowl of shredded chicken and vermicelli soup while eating it. Hongxuan, who was curled up in Fu Qiu's arms, stared at her intently, waving his little hands and babbling.
Jiang Ruyin deliberately held the bowl and waved it in front of Hongxuan, and saw that Hongxuan was indeed turning his head.
Fu Qiu laughed secretly, but Suo Chun laughed without disguising it, "Look at the little prince, he really is just like you, just as greedy."
Jiang Ruyin didn't care about Suochun's teasing. She put another spoonful into her mouth. The soft and tender rice noodles and fragrant shredded chicken filled her mouth. Jiang Ruyin was very satisfied.
He said slowly, "You are still young, and you can't enjoy any delicious food. Let me eat it for you."
As soon as these words were spoken, the room burst into laughter, and even Fu Qiu couldn't hold it back.
Hongxuan smacked his lips and uttered "ah" twice.
Jiang Ruyin looked at Suochun again and said jokingly, "You bad girl, I'm greedy, so will you stop being greedy later?"
After giving birth, Jiang Ruyin favored delicious soups. This shredded chicken and vermicelli soup was made by a young maid in Jiang Ruyin's palace. It was said to be a delicacy from her hometown, not found in the palace. Not only Jiang Ruyin, but even Shu Dong and Suo Chun were captivated by it.
The little palace maid stayed in the small kitchen for almost three meals a day. Now that Jiang Ruyin had finished her meal, Suochun and the others also wanted to share the food.
Suo Chun laughed, "This servant is just following the Majesty's preferences. If the Majesty thinks it's good, then this servant thinks it's good too!"
Several people in the house were laughing and joking, but they heard the sound of "bang bang bang" knocking on the door outside.
Fu Qiu's smile froze, and he pricked up his ears to listen. "It seems to be the sound coming from the East Side Hall."
Fu Qiu looked at Jiang Ruyin and asked, "Do you want me to go and take a look?"
Jiang Ruyin did some calculations in her mind and roughly knew what it was about, so she nodded.
Seeing that it was Concubine Chun with red eyes, Zhen Huan put down her embroidery and asked hurriedly, "What happened?"
After hearing this, Chun Changzai could no longer hold back and wanted to move closer, but was hindered by the fact that they were not very familiar with each other.
She hesitantly said with tears in her eyes, "Sister Wan, I'm afraid..."
On the day they first entered the Suiyuxuan, both of them were turned away from the main hall. Concubine Chun came to visit them in the East Side Hall, and they had a pleasant conversation. That day, Concubine Chun called Zhen Huan "Sister Wan".
Later, Zhen Huan was demoted and Concubine Chun came less often.
Although Zhen Huan was dissatisfied, she couldn't help but soften her heart when she thought of Chun Changzai's young age and innocence, and when she heard her calling her Sister Wan all the time.
"Don't be afraid, Chun'er. Have a cup of milk tea and tell me slowly. What happened?"
Huanbi glanced at Chun Changzai and still offered her milk tea.
Chun Changzai was crying and choking. She took a big sip from Zhen Huan's hand and then wiped her tears with a handkerchief.
"Just now, I and Sister Xin Guiren returned to the palace, and unexpectedly, the paper lantern in the hands of the palace maid was blown by the wind and caught fire. Coincidentally, Yu Da Ying was riding in the Fengluan Chun En carriage, and the horse driving it was frightened, so it shocked Yu Da Ying..."
After hearing what Concubine Chun said, Zhen Huan's heart tightened at first. Yu Da Ying was so arrogant, with no distinction between high and low. Then, thinking about how Chun Er had been inseparable from Concubine Xin since her promotion, her heart darkened.
I asked a few more questions in detail.
Fu Qiu happened to be outside the door, having overheard what was going on. She knocked lightly on the door and introduced herself, saying, "I am Fu Qiu, who serves the Empress Fang. The Empress heard some noise in the East Wing Hall, so she sent me to check it out."
Zhen Huan quickly signaled Jin Xi to open the door. Huanbi knew that this matter was of great importance, so she quickly opened the door.
Fu Qiu bowed respectfully and said, "I have met Concubine Chun. I agree."
Chun Changzai looked at Fu Qiu timidly. Zhen Huan pursed her lips and said nothing.
Neither of them spoke, so Fu Qiu stood up and said, "I just heard something vaguely. Did I agree to put Concubine Xin in the Ministry of Punishment?"
Concubine Chun nodded. Fu Qiu thought for a moment and then said, "There is a hierarchy in the palace. I will report this to Concubine Fang. Please rest assured, my two young ladies."
After saying this, he bowed again and retreated respectfully.
Concubine Chun sniffed and looked at Zhen Huan, "Then, Concubine Fang will have a solution, right?"
Zhen Huan lowered her eyes and nodded, "Yes, don't worry. I'll let Xiao Yunzi take you back."
Fu Qiu told Jiang Ruyin, who remained silent.
Fu Qiu looked at Jiang Ruyin's face cautiously. Since Changjie punished Yu Ying'er last time, Fu Qiu guessed that Jiang Ruyin intended to establish his prestige, so he volunteered to take on this matter.
Now that she's back, she can't help but regret it. The Queen obviously doesn't want to get involved in this matter, and Yu Da Ying has always been trying to curry favor with Concubine Hua. It's really a mess.
Jiang Ruyin didn't know what Fu Qiu was thinking, so she called out, "Yuan Beishan."
"Hey! Your Majesty, may you be well." Yuan Beishan had just filled his stomach and came back to work. He responded with a bitter face, holding his stomach.
"Go and report this to Concubine Hua."
When Yuan Beishan heard this, he almost burst into tears and whispered, "Your Majesty, Yu promised to curry favor with Concubine Hua."
Jiang Ruyin nodded, "I know, just tell her the whole story."
"I, your servant, obey your order!"
Watching Yuan Beishan leave, Fu Qiu felt uneasy and apologized, "It's all my fault. I'm afraid Concubine Hua won't pay attention to this matter."
Jiang Ruyin shook her head. "Hua Fei is arrogant and domineering, but she can't stand others being arrogant and domineering. And Hua Fei is from a noble family, so she knows the rules."
On this side, after hearing what Yuan Beishan said, the originally impatient Concubine Hua was stunned.
Lian Songzhi was amazed.
Yu promised that she would be humble and submissive in front of the empress on weekdays, but she was unexpectedly so foolish outside that she actually imprisoned the newly promoted Concubine Xin in the Ministry of Punishment.
Hua Fei gritted her teeth, "This idiot!"
Zhou Ninghai stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down." He glanced at Yuan Beishan.
Hua Fei's eyes grew colder as she looked at Yuan Beishan, "I know about this matter. The Emperor has ordered me to assist in managing the six palaces, and I will not sit idly by. You may return first."
Yuan Beishan was pardoned.
Song Zhi couldn't help but ask, "Yu Ying'er was also a palace maid, how could she not know the rules at all?"
Zhou Ninghai reminded her, "Noble Lady Xin's promotion was due to Concubine Fang's kind words. She didn't come forward but instead informed the Empress. I'm afraid she wants to use the Empress as a pawn."
Concubine Hua snorted coldly, "So what if he's used as a spear? This idiot has brought shame upon me. He's disregarding my cultivation. Zhou Ninghai! Warn the palace servants around Yu Ying'er..."
At this point, Concubine Hua thought about how An had agreed to return the jade intact to Zhao a few days ago and took Yu Ying'er to the Yangxin Palace, and now it was her again, and she couldn't help but feel proud.
