After Hua Fei was reborn, she became the white moonlight of Pangju
Chapter 13 We Are Laughing
Concubine Hua went to the Yangxin Palace in a hurry last night and didn't bring a coat with her, so she caught a cold and felt dizzy.
She leaned softly on the bed and poked Songzhi's head gently with her hand, "I have told you many times that you must respect the queen."
Songzhi was not convinced, "My lady, I know! I will respect and love her in front of others, but right now, it's just you and me."
Concubine Hua knew that Songzhi had become accustomed to her domineering behavior over the years and it was impossible for her to change her temper, but she was not really angry.
"The queen is still the queen after all. No matter how favored she is, you must be humble in front of her." Concubine Hua sighed, "She has been disliking me for a long time. Now I don't know where she is hiding, waiting for me to reveal something so that she can punish me. So you and Zhou Ninghai should be more careful."
Songzhi nodded, and her anger subsided a lot. "I will definitely remember this."
After a simple wash, Concubine Hua took a look at the clothes presented by the palace maids and waved her hand, "All the bright red clothes with peonies on them, keep them well and don't take them out again."
Songzhi frowned, "My queen, the emperor said you look best in red, especially a bright red dress with peony embroidery, which is the most stunning. Why don't you wear it?"
Hua Fei smiled faintly, "Peony symbolizes national beauty and nobleness. I am only a noble concubine. No matter how noble I am, I am definitely not as noble as the queen of a country. Wearing bright red and peonies is too ostentatious, which will give people excuses and make people jealous."
After listening to Concubine Hua's words, Songzhi thought it made sense, so she asked the palace maids to just wear some plain and elegant clothes from now on.
As she was not feeling well and had no appetite, Concubine Hua only served a cold vegetarian dish and a bowl of millet porridge.
Song Zhi looked at it with sadness, "Madam, your meal is too shabby. If this gets out, people from other palaces will laugh at us."
Concubine Hua scooped a mouthful of porridge, swallowed it, picked up the chopsticks, and ate it with the cold dishes on the table.
Inside Jingren Palace, the empress looked pale and weakly served porridge to the emperor.
The emperor looked a little annoyed, "I'm not feeling well, just let Jianqiu do these things."
Jianqiu hurriedly took the queen's spoon and served her porridge.
The queen smiled awkwardly, looked at the emperor who was drinking porridge with his head down, and said, "I heard that the emperor dealt with Concubine Xia last night."
The emperor lowered his head to drink his porridge and said "hmm" indifferently, "This Concubine Xia is really abominable. She was disrespectful to Concubine Hua and almost pushed Concubine Wan to the ground and broke her arm."
The Queen's expression changed slightly. "In that case, Concubine Xia really deserves to die. She deserves to offend Concubine Hua. No wonder the Emperor is angry."
Last night, Xia Dongchun was taken to the Ministry of Punishment, where he was beaten with 15 sticks and died. After hearing the news, the queen couldn't sleep all night.
After all, Xia Dongchun was her man. If she lost one, she would lose a chess piece to deal with Concubine Hua. She would be unhappy no matter what.
The emperor picked up a piece of dessert, took a bite, and gently threw it back on the plate. He looked up at the queen and said, "I have seen how Concubine Hua has tolerated Xia Dongchun again and again. In recent days, Concubine Hua has become more restrained and even a little indecisive. If I don't help her, who knows how Xia Dongchun will bully her."
Bullying Concubine Hua?
The queen felt that she was listening to a huge joke. Wasn't there enough cases of Concubine Hua being overbearing in the six palaces? Sometimes, she even rode on the head of the queen!
"Hua Fei is a straightforward person, she does whatever she wants, and now she has the Emperor to protect her. I really envy her."
The emperor swallowed the last bite of dessert in his mouth and looked at the queen meaningfully, "Hua Fei has a bit of a tricky personality, but she's not a bad person."
The Queen smiled and said, "Yes, Concubine Hua is indeed not a bad person."
The emperor wiped his mouth and looked at the queen with deep meaning in his eyes, "It is because of the queen's kindness that she tolerated Concubine Hua."
The smile on the queen's face was uglier than crying.
"I'll go see Concubine Hua." The emperor stood up, threw the handkerchief in his hand on the table, turned around and walked out of Jingren Palace.
Seeing the emperor walking away, Jianqiu said hurriedly, "Empress, the emperor must be confused. Who in the harem dares to bully Concubine Hua? The emperor is actually worried that she will be bullied!"
The Queen glared at Jianqiu fiercely, "How dare you! You are the one who is confused, not the Emperor!"
Jianqiu bowed and apologized, "Your Majesty, please forgive me!"
After all, she had followed the queen for many years, and the queen couldn't bear to really punish her. When she spoke again, her tone was much softer.
"The fact that the emperor has such thoughts shows that Concubine Hua has really changed."
"It is said that it is easy to change the country but difficult to change one's nature. Can this Concubine Hua really change her arrogant and domineering nature? I don't believe it!"
"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. What's important is that the emperor believes it!" The queen rubbed her sore temples. What exactly is Concubine Hua planning?
Jianqiu looked at the worried Queen, rolled her eyes, and whispered, "Your Majesty, since the Emperor said that Concubine Hua has changed her personality, why don't you test her?"
The Queen became interested, and looking towards the direction of Yikun Palace, she said word by word, "Indeed, Concubine Hua's temper needs to be tempered more."
When Zhou Ninghai arrived at the Yikun Palace, he was stopped by the emperor just as he was about to go in to report the incident.
Zhou Ninghai had no choice but to follow behind silently. Su Peisheng smiled and said to him, "The emperor heard that Concubine Hua was not feeling well, so he came to see her."
Zhou Ninghai nodded and smiled gratefully at Su Peisheng.
"Your Majesty, please eat a little more." Songzhi saw that Concubine Hua only ate a little and stopped eating, and was very worried about her health.
"I'm full." Hua Fei said.
The emperor walked in quietly and stood behind Concubine Hua. Songzhi was about to say something but was stopped by the emperor.
Seeing that there was only millet porridge and a cold dish on Concubine Hua's table, the Emperor thought of the three snacks, two cold dishes and a lean meat porridge in the Queen's palace. He couldn't help but sigh, how could Concubine Hua be even more frugal than the frugal Queen?
He finally couldn't help but ask, "Hua Fei, why is the meal so simple? How did the people in Yikun Palace serve you?"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the palace maids and eunuchs present knelt down.
"Your Majesty, forgive me!"
Concubine Hua didn't expect the emperor to come so suddenly, so she quickly stood up and knelt.
"emperor!"
The emperor helped her up. Seeing her pale smile, he couldn't help but frowned, "Have you called the imperial physician?"
Concubine Hua shook her head. "It's just a minor illness. There's no need to disturb the imperial physician."
The emperor said, "You look very bad, how could it be a minor illness? I will ask the imperial physician to come and check you out right away."
Hua Fei gently tugged at the emperor's sleeve, "It's getting late, Your Majesty should go to the morning court. Don't delay things because of me. Otherwise, I will be a sinner for all eternity."
Su Peisheng looked up at the sky and it was indeed time for the morning court.
"Your Majesty, Xiao Xiazi just reported that Lord Longkodo urged you to come to court."
"He is very active." The emperor said this indifferently, then turned to look at Concubine Hua, "Take care of yourself, I will come to see you later."
Concubine Hua bowed respectfully and watched the emperor leave.
Songzhi said nervously, "Your Majesty, Longkodo has always been at odds with the general. This time, Longkodo suddenly came to court. Is it related to the general?"
