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

The news that Zhen Huan was about to return to the palace caused a huge uproar, and in comparison, Huanbi's pregnancy seemed less insignificant.

Apart from the Queen, the person who was most concerned about Huanbi's pregnancy was Shen Meizhuang.

Carrying generous gifts, Shen Meizhuang and Caiyue hurried into Qixiang Palace.

"I heard that Huipin used to visit other concubines and rarely visited the main concubine." Yinxiu stood behind Wenpin.

Concubine Wen's expression was calm. "She has her own pride and arrogance. Besides, she is now on an equal footing with me."

Yinxiu lowered her eyelids, "Our queen is still good-tempered."

The east wing hall was silent, but with the arrival of Shen Meizhuang, it became more lively.

When Shen Meizhuang entered the hall, she saw Huanbi lying on the couch, and the round nanmu table in front of the door was piled with brocade boxes.

Lightly glancing at the surprised Huanbi, Shen Meizhuang was the first to laugh and said, "Oh, it seems like my gift is late."

Huanbi put away her surprised expression and stood up and saluted somewhat awkwardly.

"Greetings to Her Majesty Huipin. Your Majesty has come to us, and I am sorry for not coming to greet you."

Shen Meizhuang lowered her eyelashes when she heard this. It was because they were not close enough that they became so distant.

But it doesn’t matter. Huanbi’s shortcomings are exactly what she has, and we can always form a faction together.

In addition, Zhen Huan was about to return to the palace, and Shen Meizhuang felt that she was unable to make the emperor change his mind, so she had to accept it with mixed feelings.

At this moment, she was extremely grateful that she did not cut off contact with Zhen Huan even though she was holding a grudge against him.

Huanbi also had mixed feelings, mostly disdain.

When she was a palace maid, she had some dealings with Shen Meizhuang. After she became a concubine, they didn't even exchange greetings when they met. But now she is rushing to come to me.

With this in mind, Huanbi invited Shen Meizhuang to sit in the main seat, without showing any emotion on her face.

"I haven't been alone with Concubine Hui for a long time and I don't know what her taste is. I hope the tea here can please her."

Hearing Huanbi's dissatisfaction, Shen Meizhuang's cold face only lasted for a few moments, and then she smiled and said, "How can people with the same ideals care about these things like wine and meat?"

Shen Meizhuang's goodwill gave Huanbi a chance to breathe in her resentful heart.

After seeing Shen Meizhuang off, Huanbi leaned against the door frame and stared at Shen Meizhuang's back.

"It's great! When she heard that my eldest sister was going back to the palace, even the arrogant Huipin came to me on her own initiative."

As soon as Cui'er, who changed her name to Zhusha, came back, she heard Huanbi mumbling to herself.

Zhu Sha blinked and said tentatively, "It seems that the young lady doesn't object to Concubine Wan coming back."

"..."

"She is my sister..." Huanbi was very depressed.

On the other hand, the queen, feeling weak, pretended to persuade him a few times and then stopped trying to stop him.

She still wanted to recruit Zhen Huan to fight against Jiang Ruyin.

"I didn't expect Zhen to have such ability." The queen sneered.

Jianqiu immediately agreed, "Zhen's arrogance was used at the wrong time, but her seductiveness was used at the right time."

after all

When the Queen thought of Zhen Huan's face, which was somewhat similar to Chun Yuan and Jiang Ruyin, and was servile to her, she could hardly help laughing.

The emperor on the imperial carriage closed his eyes to rest, but the brief discussion he had just had with the empress involuntarily emerged in his mind.

He sighed softly, the queen was no longer the same queen as before.

Or perhaps, he had never seen his second wife clearly.

"Your Majesty, are we going back to the Yangxin Palace next?" Su Peisheng asked.

The five-clawed golden dragon carriage crossed the Qianqing Palace and Kunning Palace and stopped on the palace road between Yongshou Palace and Yangxin Palace.

As the sun sets,

A red sun, covered with scorching clouds, hung on the eaves and clouds of Yongshou Palace, eclipsing the entire sky and earth.

The look of Jiang Ruyin's curled lips and smile remained deeply in the emperor's mind. The emperor couldn't help but smile softly, but said, "The small kitchen in Yikun Palace is what I care about the most."

"Yes." Su Peisheng sang loudly: "Let's get started!"

"Knock knock knock!"

Su Peisheng knocked on the vermilion gate of Yiku Palace with trepidation.

"The Emperor has arrived at the Yikun Palace!"

A young eunuch came to open the door swiftly, but was pulled back by Zhou Ninghai before he could say anything.

"Your servant greets His Majesty!" Zhou Ninghai dragged his lame leg and knelt with a plop. "Your Majesty, please forgive me. Xin and the little princess had a high fever last night and didn't recover until this morning. Your Majesty and the princess have both gone to bed by now."

The emperor frowned and stared at Zhou Ninghai dimly.

"I haven't heard of it."

"I hope the emperor will forgive me. The queen heard that the emperor was worried about the affairs of the previous dynasty and did not allow me to disturb the emperor, so she asked the two chief and deputy doctors of the Imperial Hospital to take a look." Zhou Ninghai said sincerely.

The emperor felt a little uneasy and said with a deliberately sullen face, "Next time, if the imperial concubine feels unwell, please come and tell me. Remember to tell the imperial concubine that I have been here."

"Yes, your servant respectfully sends the emperor off."

On the way back to the Yangxin Palace, the emperor pondered for a long time and suddenly said, "Is this true?"

Su Peisheng was also nervous. His attention was not entirely on the emperor, and he often went back and forth in and out of the palace, so he really didn't know about this.

Su Peisheng caught a glimpse of Xiao Xiazi nodding at him, and said hurriedly, "It is true."

The emperor took in all the little movements of the two people and closed his eyes without saying a word.

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation,

The emperor sat down with great fanfare, drank a sip of tea and was about to serve the meal.

Su Peisheng appeared in front of the emperor holding a piece of bright yellow soft silk.

"Your Majesty, this was sent by Noble Lady Lou this afternoon."

"Well, put it here and serve the food." The emperor glanced at it casually.

Because the meal was expected to be served in the concubines' palace, the imperial meal was not delivered directly to the Yangxin Palace. Even though Su Peisheng asked Xiao Dongzi to serve the meal in front of the Yiku Palace gate, the palace servants were still no faster than the imperial carriage.

While waiting for dinner, the emperor picked it up and took a casual look at it.

Concubines have always liked to make some intimate items such as pajamas and purses, hoping to wear them themselves to show their favor.

However, the emperor seemed to have the impression that Lou Yong'er had said that she was not good at embroidery.

The material of this pajamas is soft, and the patterns on it are some common auspicious clouds and dragons, there is nothing wrong with it.

Just look at the stitching, it's so delicate and tight, it looks like it was done with great care.

The emperor thought, "Summon the noble lady to dinner."

Xiao Xiazi stayed in the hall to serve, and left quickly after hearing the words.

Lou Yong'er arrived soon.

The emperor looked up at her and saw that she was dressed simply. He jokingly said, "You know you're coming to dinner, so you don't even bother to dress up."

"Your Majesty, please don't blame me. It is said that women dress up to please themselves. I was thinking about seeing Your Majesty earlier and forgot to dress up." Lou Yong'er replied calmly.

The emperor laughed and did not pursue the matter any further.

"You made this nightgown very well. It seems that there was no such craftsmanship before."

Lou Yong'er had a constant smile on her face, but she was thinking in her heart: You will always wear the one that Chunyuan made for you anyway.
