When Prince Guo heard the words "Mr. Ideal", his heart almost jumped out of his chest.

He stared at Concubine Hua without blinking, with an undisguised smile on his face.

"My lady, you......"

Before Prince Guo could finish his words, he was ruthlessly interrupted by Concubine Hua.

"I also hope that you, Your Majesty, can find your ideal wife soon!"

The smile on Prince Guo's face faded little by little.

He looked at Concubine Hua disappointedly and murmured, "My Lady, is this all you want to tell me?"

Concubine Hua nodded slightly, with no extra expression on her face.

"This is what I really think. I hope that the prince and his lover can finally get married and live happily ever after."

"That's all?" Prince Guo looked at Concubine Hua with disappointment.

Concubine Hua couldn't bear to look into his eyes anymore.

"Yes, that's what I want to say."

Hua Fei turned around, facing away from Prince Guo, and continued,

"Your Majesty, I have something to do and I'll have to leave first. Please take your leave first."

Without waiting for Prince Guo's response, Concubine Hua left in a hurry.

"Empress Hua!"

Prince Guo subconsciously took a step forward and followed Concubine Hua.

A Jin hurriedly grabbed him.

"My Lord, she is your sister-in-law!"

Prince Guo stood there in a daze, muttering two words over and over again: "Emperor's sister-in-law".

Seeing that he was distracted, Ah Jin continued, "Prince, you haven't visited the Concubine Dowager for a long time. The Concubine Dowager must be missing you."

During this period of time, Prince Guo can no longer stay in the Forbidden City. He must go out and relax.

A Jin knows his master too well. On weekdays, his master knows what is important and what is not, and what is right and wrong.

However, I am too obsessed with matters of the heart.

When talking about his biological mother, Concubine Shu, Prince Guo regained some of his rationality.

He looked at Concubine Hua's back as she walked away and said sadly, "I should really go see my mother."

After walking for a long way, Concubine Hua slowed down her pace.

Songzhi turned around, glanced behind her, and then said softly, "I didn't catch up."

When Concubine Hua heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's good that I didn't catch up."

Keeping a distance from Prince Guo is good for both of you.

Prince Guo is a good man, and she doesn't want him to end up like in his previous life, being given poisoned wine and dying.

"My Lady, Prince Guo is very kind to you..."

Songzhi was a smart person. She had noticed Prince Guo's intentions towards her own wife a long time ago.

However, it has always been uncertain.

Just now, she finally confirmed that Prince Guo was really interested in her queen.

"This matter just rotted in my stomach."

Concubine Hua said calmly that having come this far, she would not allow any more mistakes to happen.

Her brother Nian Gengyao and two nephews hid the truth and survived in an unknown corner of the Qing Dynasty. Concubine Hua's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally relaxed a little.

But, just a little.

Concubine Hua also has an elderly father and older brother Nian Xiyao to protect.

At the moment, it is still unknown whether Nian Gengyao’s crimes will implicate them.

Therefore, Concubine Hua has to continue to be careful and vigilant.

As soon as he returned to Yikun Palace, Zhou Ninghai came to report happily.

"An Lingrong is equally important, she is almost dying!"

Concubine Hua frowned, "I thought she had died of the plague that time, but I never thought she would still be able to live until now."

Zhou Ninghai raised his hand and made a gesture of wiping his neck.

"My lady, can I help you deal with it?"

Hua Fei waved her hands and fell into deep thought.

After a while, she said to Songzhi, "Go to Suiyuxuan now and tell Wan Guiren about this."

"Yes, ma'am."

----

When Songzhi arrived at Suiyuxuan, the emperor had already left.

When she told Zhen Huan about An Lingrong, Zhen Huan was stunned for a moment.

After a long while, she said in a daze: "I'll go see her. After all, we are sisters."

After a simple packing, Zhen Huan went to the cold palace.

When she set foot in this place again, she still felt it was eerie and scary.

The cold palace was overgrown with weeds, and many concubines walked around like wandering souls.

When he sees Zhen Huan, he pounces on her.

"go away!"

Xiao Yunzi knows some martial arts and can kick down anyone who comes his way.

The concubines left screaming one by one.

Walking to the innermost part, Zhen Huan finally saw An Lingrong's residence.

She lifted the hem of her cheongsam, took a deep breath, and walked in.

As soon as I stepped inside, I smelled a foul odor, as if some meat was rotting.

Zhen Huan quickly took out a handkerchief and covered her mouth and nose.

Xiao Yunzi couldn't stand it anymore, he covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves and held his breath while speaking.

"My lord, you should not stay here for long. It will hurt your health."

The two walked further in and finally saw An Lingrong.

An Lingrong's face was blackened and her body was emaciated. Her face, neck and arms were covered with pus-oozing wounds, which looked disgusting and shocking.

When Zhen Huan saw her like this, her eyes turned red.

She looked at An Lingrong and asked, "When did you become like this?"

An Lingrong was already on her deathbed when she suddenly heard someone talking and slowly opened her eyes.

She stared at Zhen Huan, and after a moment of trance, she smiled.

"Sister Wan, do you still blame me?"

Zhen Huan couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat when she looked at An Lingrong's blackened face that barely resembled a normal human's.

As sisters, Zhen Huan felt pity for her when she saw how pitiful she was.

"Whether it's strange or not, it happened and I still lost my child. I just want to ask you, do you regret doing these things?"

"Regret?" An Lingrong murmured.

She lay flat on the bed, and it felt like she was using up all her strength to say a word.

She tried hard and finally turned her head towards Zhen Huan.

"If I had to choose again, Sister Wan, I would still choose to give you that bottle of Scar Relief Gel; I would still have someone assassinate you. Because I have no choice!"

She really had no choice.

The kindness Zhen Huan showed her was like a reward given to a street dog.

She, An Lingrong, doesn't want this kind of goodness.

"So, you never regretted hurting me?"

Zhen Huan asked, staring into An Lingrong's eyes without blinking.

An Lingrong smiled, using all her strength.

"Haha, of course I won't regret it! Sister Wan, how can someone like you who is born noble and beautiful understand my pain? You must think I'm cruel and shameless, right?"

Zhen Huan shook her head and looked at An Lingrong sadly.

"Lingrong, from the first time we met until now, I have checked my conscience and have never harmed you. Everything I did afterwards was because you were too cruel to me. In fact, I had already discovered that there was musk in the scar-removing gel, but I kept my composure and did not immediately question you, let alone tell the emperor."

Shock flashed across An Lingrong's eyes.

"Why didn't you tell the emperor right away? Did you want to kill me with one strike?"

Zhen Huan sneered, a cold light appeared in her eyes, and the last bit of compassion she had just shown was gone.

She said calmly: "I was still very naive at that time. I hope you can change your mind and have a change of heart."
