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

Chapter 36: Hitting My Pain Points

The emperor hardly slept all night.

After the morning court session, he went to Shoukang Palace to see the Empress Dowager.

When the Queen Mother heard about Lobsang Danjin's rebellion, she sighed and said, "Yunzhen is your brother after all, and now is the time to use him..."

The emperor slammed the teacup in his hand heavily on the table.

"Yunzhen has disobeyed me time and again, and yet Empress Dowager still wants him to lead the troops? Or do you want him to take his place?"

When the Queen Mother saw that the Emperor was angry, her blood boiled and she couldn't help coughing, her face flushed red.

The emperor was indifferent. Thinking of the Queen Mother's preference for his fourteenth brother, Yunli, he gritted his teeth and said, "Yunli will never lead the army again. I already have a candidate. Nian Gengyao is the most suitable one!"

The Queen Mother's eyes turned red and she dared not say another word.

The emperor only glanced at the empress dowager calmly, then stood up and said, "Since your madam is not feeling well, please have a good rest. Your son will take his leave."

When the words fell, he left in a hurry.

The Queen Mother looked at the Emperor's receding back and smiled bitterly with tears in her eyes, "Your Majesty, since you have already chosen Nian Gengyao, why did you deliberately come to test me? No matter how wrong Yunzhen is, he is still your brother!"

After coming out of Shoukang Palace, the emperor was still a little worried.

Yunzhen was indeed quite talented in military affairs, and he was also his own brother, so there was no reason for him not to use Yunzhen. However, after he succeeded to the throne, this fourteenth brother repeatedly showed his dissatisfaction with him, which made the emperor very angry. The emperor also wanted to repair the relationship between the brothers, but this arrogant fourteenth brother did not appreciate it at all.

From then on, the emperor swore to imprison his fourteenth brother forever.

Therefore, even if his fourteenth brother Yinzhen had the ability to quell Lobsang Danjin's rebellion, the emperor would never use him.

If his fourteenth brother Yinzhen is not used, the only person who can be used in the court is Nian Gengyao.

"Su Peisheng went to Yikun Palace."

"Set up the Yikun Palace!"

A eunuch had already hurried over to inform Concubine Hua that the Emperor was coming.

Concubine Hua looked at the time. It was still a long time before lunch. Why did the emperor come here?

"Where did the emperor come from?"

The young eunuch replied: "To answer the question from Concubine Hua, Shoukang Palace."

Went straight to Shoukang Palace right after the morning court session? Hua Fei didn't think that the emperor was a filial person.

She married into the palace early and knew very well the emperor's resentment towards the empress dowager.

Because the emperor was not raised by the empress dowager since he was a child, his relationship with her was somewhat distant. However, the emperor's younger brother, the fourteenth prince, was raised by the empress dowager after he was born, and he had a very close relationship with her.

The emperor had always been very jealous that the queen mother favored the fourteenth prince. After ascending the throne, although the emperor made his biological mother the queen mother, he did not visit her very often.

If it wasn’t because of something in the harem, then it must have been something in the previous dynasty.

The Queen Mother always trusted the Queen Mother to handle the affairs of the harem and rarely asked about them. If it was not a matter of the harem, then it was a matter of the previous dynasty.

When she thought about the things that happened in the previous dynasty, Concubine Hua thought of her brother Nian Gengyao.

She calculated the time and was shocked. At this time in her previous life, Lobsang Danjin should have started a rebellion.

In other words, his brother Nian Gengyao would soon be appointed as the General of Fuyuan.

"The Emperor has arrived!" Just as Concubine Hua was lost in thought, Su Peisheng's voice was heard outside the Yikun Palace.

Concubine Hua hurriedly took the palace maids and eunuchs to welcome the emperor.

"See your Majesty, long live your Majesty!"

The Emperor sat on the dragon chariot and did not immediately ask Concubine Hua to stand up. Instead, he looked down at her as she knelt respectfully in front of him.

Concubine Hua also knew that the emperor was secretly observing her, so she kept kneeling properly, no longer looking around like she did in her previous life, but keeping her head down.

Seeing that Concubine Hua had almost finished kneeling, the Emperor said leisurely, "Everyone, stand up."

Hua Fei, the palace maids, and the eunuchs stood up one by one only after receiving the emperor's permission.

Su Peisheng walked over and helped the emperor down from the dragon chariot.

As soon as the emperor stood firmly on the ground, Concubine Hua came over and Su Peisheng tactfully walked aside.

Concubine Hua raised her eyes and saw that the emperor's lips were slightly chapped, so she reached out to touch them.

The emperor was thinking about something, and when she touched him, he subconsciously let out an "ah".

When he saw that it was Concubine Hua who was poking her bruised lips, he frowned slightly, "How come you have learned to poke my sore spots?"

Hua Fei smiled slightly, revealing her white teeth, "Your Majesty, I have some lip ointment here. Please sit down first. I will let Song Zhi get it."

Songzhi was smart and ran to find medicine.

Before this, Doctor Wen had prescribed various beauty and skin care medicines for Concubine Hua, including skin care, hand care, and lip care. Songzhi was quick and found the lip care plaster quickly and handed it to Concubine Hua.

Hua Fei pushed the emperor down on the chair and opened the ointment. "Your Majesty, what has been bothering you recently? Look at your lips, they are all peeling."

After all, he is a man. No matter how many people serve him, he can never be as attentive as a woman in these matters. After Hua Fei reminded him, he also touched his lips with his hand, and they were indeed chapped.

"It's nothing more than a matter of the previous dynasty." The emperor said while observing Hua Fei's expression.

Hua Fei scooped up some ointment with her fingertips and carefully applied it on the emperor's sore lips, as if she did not hear the word "previous dynasty" that the emperor had just said.

"Your Majesty, don't move." Seeing that the emperor kept turning his head, Concubine Hua pretended to be angry and reminded him, "If you move, the ointment will fall somewhere else!"

The emperor saw that Concubine Hua looked very cute with a slightly frowned brow and pouty lips, so he couldn't help but cooperate with her.

"Okay, I won't move, I won't move!"

"That's right!"

Hua Fei curled her lips and smiled at the evening, that smile was extremely charming.

Even though there are three thousand beauties in the harem, the most beautiful and charming one is still Concubine Hua.

Hua Fei's fingertips gently rubbed the emperor's lips, like a feather gently tickling the emperor's heart.

The emperor's Adam's apple rolled several times. He looked at Concubine Hua carefully applying ointment on him, and the corners of his lips somehow rose slightly.

When Concubine Hua saw the emperor moving again, she couldn't help but said angrily, "Your Majesty! Why are you moving again?"

The emperor grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms, and Su Peisheng signaled everyone to leave.

"Okay, that's enough. I'm a grown man, I don't care about these things."

Hua Fei refused, "Your Majesty, you are the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. Your chapped lips must be caused by overwork. How can you not care about your body? Even if you don't care, I can't care too! After all, in this harem, you are the only one I can rely on."

As Concubine Hua spoke, she leaned gently into the emperor's arms, holding his waist with both hands.

The emperor's anger caused by what happened in Shoukang Palace slowly subsided.
