After Hua Fei was reborn, she became the white moonlight of Pangju

Chapter 16: Remind him to see Concubine Hua

Although she knew that the emperor was always suspicious, when she saw him silent for a moment, Hua Fei's heart couldn't help but rise.

After a while, the emperor suddenly smiled and said, "It's hard for you not to be nepotistic."

Hua Fei also laughed, "I am just imitating the emperor. The emperor is a wise ruler, and he will employ people with both virtue and ability, not someone as short-sighted and ignorant as me, who only knows how to appoint people based on personal connections. Although I am stupid, I think it is right to follow the emperor's steps."

Hua Fei's words belittled herself and elevated the emperor, which made the emperor very satisfied.

As the emperor's woman, she can't be too smart, but she can't be too stupid either. In short, it's best to strictly abide by the virtues of a woman, focus on her husband, and always think about her husband.

Seeing Concubine Hua looking at him with full love and admiration, the emperor's vanity as the supreme ruler was satisfied to an unprecedented degree.

"Okay, I'll ask Doctor Wen to come and see you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Hua Fei wanted to stand up to thank the emperor. The emperor held her back and said, "You have been with me for so many years, there is no need to be so polite."

Hua Fei said respectfully and seriously: "Your Majesty is the supreme ruler. Without Your Majesty, there would be no favor from this concubine. It is only right for this concubine to respect and love you."

The emperor was very pleased to hear this, and told Concubine Hua to take good care of her health. Then he went to the Yangxin Palace to review memorials.

Wen Shichu examined Hua Fei's wound and prescribed her a prescription for internal medicine: 4 liang of angelica, 3 liang of raw astragalus, 3 liang of poria, 5 qian of rhubarb, 5 qian of licorice, 3 qian of black schizonepeta, 1 qian of saposhnikovia, and 3 qian of scutellaria.

"Boil in water and take three times a day."

Wen Shichu said, and took out a small porcelain bottle from the medicine box, "This is the immortal Taiyi ointment, your majesty, apply it to the affected area three times a day."

After reading it, Wen Shichu was about to leave.

Concubine Hua rewarded Wen Shichu generously and told him that she would protect Zhen Huan well.

Wen Shichu looked at the five hundred taels of silver on the plate in Songzhi's hand and refused to accept it. However, when he heard Concubine Hua say that she would take care of Zhen Huan in the harem, he was moved.

Wen Shichu bowed and said, "If your majesty has any instructions, as long as I can help, I will do my best."

Concubine Hua smiled and raised her hand to ask Wen Shichu to stand up.

"With Doctor Wen's words, I feel relieved. Concubine Wan is over there, Master Wen, don't worry."

Wen Shichu was worried that Concubine Hua had misunderstood his relationship with Zhen Huan, so he hurriedly explained, "Wan Changzai is also half my sister. As her brother, I naturally hope that she lives a good life in the palace."

Hua Fei smiled gently, "I understand, just like my brother also hopes that I can live a good life."

Wen Shichu looked at Concubine Hua with gratitude.

Zhen Huan originally thought that she would live a peaceful life quietly in the harem, but she never expected that soon after entering the palace, she was recommended by Concubine Hua and was favored by the emperor. She was a little flattered.

Before she had time to digest the emperor's favor, she was maliciously targeted by Xia Dongchun and almost beaten by her. Zhen Huan thought that under the emperor's nose, the women in the harem would not be so jealous, but they would not go too far. She never thought that this little Xia Changzai, relying on her father's official position, would bully her in broad daylight.

The more she thought about it, the more scared she became. She decided to keep a low profile in the future. If it really didn't work, she would just lie and say she was sick.

She asked Huanbi to invite Wen Shichu, "Just tell him to check my pulse."

Wen Shichu had just left the Yikun Palace and returned to the Imperial Hospital when he saw Huanbi. When he heard that it was Zhen Huan calling him, Wen Shichu immediately picked up the medicine box and rushed to Suiyuxuan without even having time to drink a sip of water.

After dismissing the attendants, only Zhen Huan and Wen Shichu were left in the bedroom.

"I don't want to sleep with you recently. Brother Shichu, do you have any good ideas?"

Wen Shichu was surprised. As long as she entered the palace, she would have to sleep with the emperor. Zhen Huan's request really embarrassed Wen Shichu. However, Wen Shichu still prescribed a prescription, making Zhen Huan look weak and unfit to sleep with the emperor.

Before leaving, Wen Shichu thought about it and decided to relay Hua Fei's words to Zhen Huan.

"Did Concubine Hua really say that she would protect me?"

Wen Shichu said, "This is what Concubine Hua told me herself. She said that if you encounter any difficulties in the harem, just come to her. She will definitely help you."

Zhen Huan was half-believing and half-doubting. After Wen Shichu left, the eunuch from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came to tell her that the emperor would stay at Sui Yuxuan tonight.

"Huanbi, I don't want to sleep with you anymore. The more favors the emperor gives me, the more uneasy I feel. The desperate and vicious look in Xia Dongchun's eyes when she was dragged to the Ministry of Punishment is still imprinted in my mind."

Huanbi was also anxious, "My lady, didn't Doctor Wen prescribe medicine for you?"

Zhen Huan calculated the time and said, "I'm afraid it's too late."

Seeing Zhen Huan's confusion, Jin Xi reminded her, "My lady, I have been in the palace for many years and have seen too many fickle people. It is true that being favored will attract jealousy, but when you are not favored, you will live worse than a servant in the harem. My lady, you should seize the opportunity when the emperor favors you."

Zhen Huan thought seriously for a while and decided to sleep with him tonight.

After all, she hadn't had time to drink the medicine Wen Shichu had prescribed, and she was in good health but didn't serve him, which was a crime of deceiving the emperor. As for whether he was favored or not, she didn't care much, as long as she could live a stable life in the harem.

In order not to upset the empress, the emperor still had dinner in Jingren Palace.

"I heard that the Emperor turned over the name card of Concubine Wan tonight. This should be the second time. I think this Concubine Wan is quite favored by the Emperor."

The emperor took a few bites of food and thought of Zhen Huan's appearance, and couldn't help but fall into memories.

"She looks 50% like Chun Yuan, and she is also naturally beautiful. How can I not love her? Moreover, I have discovered that this Wan Changzai is quite intelligent, and her poetry and songs are also unique in the harem."

Listening to the emperor praising Zhen Huan, the queen lost her appetite, but still said with a smile on her face: "Then I congratulate the emperor on finding another beautiful woman."

The queen raised her glass and toasted the emperor.

The emperor was very happy and prepared to go to Sui Yuxuan.

But then the Queen said, "Hua Fei is always jealous, and she will inevitably bother the Emperor in the near future."

The Queen spoke to Concubine Hua in a joking tone with a smile in her eyes, as if she was talking about an ignorant child.

The emperor's face darkened and he turned the Buddhist beads in his hand.

"After hearing what the Queen said, I will go and see Concubine Hua first. She burned herself while cooking for me today."

The Queen could no longer hold on to her smile, "Your Majesty, didn't you say you wanted to go to Sui Yu Xuan?"

The emperor ignored the queen and Su Peisheng waved the whisk in his hand.

"Go to Yikun Palace!"

After the emperor left, Jian Qiu asked in confusion: "Your Majesty, the emperor was going to Sui Yuxuan, why did you remind him to go see Concubine Hua?"
