The Queen has arrived: An Lingrong does not want to fight in the palace after her rebirth

When the east was bright, the emperor returned to the palace.

The emperor's procession, which stretched for miles, moved farther and farther away until it completely disappeared from sight.

Nanny Chen, who was serving the Fourth Prince, tried hard to stand up with her hands on the ground, but her knees and calves were so numb from kneeling for too long that she could not exert any strength at all. Nanny Chen staggered and almost fell, but fortunately she held on. In that instant, her legs regained some sensation, and suddenly she felt a tearing pain as if a small hammer was pressing on her bones, and the pain was mixed with numbness as if being gnawing at by thousands of ants.

Nanny Chen was so upset that she broke out in a cold sweat. She gritted her teeth and trembled as she bent over to support Hongli:

"Brother, get up. You'll get a heat stroke if the sun gets too strong."

Hongli struggled to stand up with the help of her strength, and the two of them supported each other and slowly returned to the east gate of Yuanmingyuan.

On the imperial carriage, the emperor closed his eyes slightly as if he was resting, and after a while he looked back and said to himself:

"Well, the etiquette is not wasted."

Xiao Xia Zi, who was curled up on the side and serving, seemed not to have heard the emperor's words and continued to fan herself slowly.

As soon as the group settled down in the palace, Concubine Qi rushed to Jingren Palace.

With the help of Cao Qinmo, Concubine Qi told the Queen the news that night. As the matter got older, the Queen did not hold out much hope, but she still signaled E Min to go and verify it.

E Min was quite capable. He visited countless families and found out that Zhen Yuandao did keep a mistress in the Xicheng Hutong from the 48th year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi to the 53rd year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi.

But no one knew the origin of the concubine, only that she didn't look like someone from the Central Plains.

E Min continued to investigate further and actually found the lease certificate signed by Zhen Yuandao in the brokerage firm.

E Min reported the matter to the queen. After thinking for a long time, the queen only said that it was just a romantic matter and at most could only damage Zhen Yuandao's reputation.

Impeachment will only be carried out if it can be proven that the woman named He Mianmian is indeed suspicious.

But Concubine Qi didn't know all this. She had been waiting since July, and seeing that the Zhen family was still as prominent as ever, she could no longer wait and came to find the Queen.

The queen was annoyed by her impatience: "I have told you many times, haste makes waste. A statement without evidence cannot convict Zhen Yuandao."

Lady Qi lowered her head and looked unconvinced:

"I just don't want to look at Zhen Huan's smug face every day."

The Queen saw that she was so arrogant and self-righteous. If she didn't make it clear, Concubine Qi would definitely ruin her plan. She said helplessly:

"Before the Emperor left for the Old Summer Palace in May, he asked all the officials in the capital to write poems to denounce Qian Mingshi. Now more than three months have passed. I heard that Zhen Yuandao has been reluctant to start writing. Only Zhen Yuandao knows the reason. How long do you think the Emperor can wait?"

Concubine Qi was still a little confused: "Does the emperor not want to pursue this matter now that Zhen Huan is pregnant?"

The Queen looked at Concubine Qi with a rather helpless look: "I understand the Emperor. In his heart, what he values ​​most is the country and the unity of the monarch and his subjects. The Emperor is giving the Zhen family a chance. It depends on whether the Zhen family can grasp it. If they can, I will start from other aspects. If not, I will follow the Emperor's wishes, and then your father will be able to exert his strength in the former dynasty."

Concubine Qi became even more anxious: "What the queen can think of, what if Zhen Huan also thinks of it."

The Queen finally couldn't help but rolled her eyes at Concubine Qi: "So, I asked you to stay with Zhen Huan. Especially at this time, Zhen Huan must not be aware of it at all."

"You just need to give her a headache every day as usual. She is pregnant and is most likely to be upset. If you do this well, you will be helping me a lot."

Concubine Qi looked downcast after hearing what the Queen said. What the Queen meant was that she could not do anything big.

She wanted to argue a few more times, but seeing the Queen's unfriendly expression, she finally had to agree.

After returning to Yongshou Palace, she went to Zhen Huan's main hall more frequently. She usually pulled Zhen Huan aside to chat, starting from her childhood and could talk for an entire afternoon. Occasionally, she would help Zhen Huan with needlework, but her craftsmanship was not very good. After embroidering a piece of material the size of a palm, she had to redo the work. Or she would pull Liu Zhu aside to talk about how to cook various foods, and when she got excited, she would yell at Liu Zhu to try them out on the spot.

Life in Yongshou Palace was as lively as ever, and Zhen Huan could only get some peace and quiet when she slept.

"This Miss Qi, I think she wants to stick with the Queen for twelve hours a day." Jin Xi couldn't help but complain.

Huanbi couldn't help but complain, "From my perspective, she wants to cling to the young lady for a long time so that the emperor will take more care of her. She is so shameless."

Zhen Huan rubbed her brows:

"If she comes again, you just take care of your own things. If it doesn't work, I'll take her with me to do embroidery. It's better than her talking all the time and making my head hurt."

Liu Zhu came up with an idea: "Your Majesty, why don't you just report this to the Emperor and ask him to find a new place for Concubine Qi to live."

Zhen Huan was really helpless in dealing with such a dog-skin plaster person. She waved her hands and said, "What should I say to the emperor? Concubine Qi has always been respectful in front of me and has never made any mistakes. I can't say that Concubine Qi is too noisy. How will the emperor see me if I do that? He will think that I am intolerant."

"Forget it, let her make trouble as she pleases. I just need to be calm."

This August has been relatively peaceful.

Yongshou Palace was extremely bustling every day, while Jingren Palace was relatively quiet. An Lingrong counted the days every day, hoping to see her mother as soon as possible.

Time flies, and it is already September, the autumn season.

An Lingrong was even more anxious to see her mother and had asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs twice where her mother was.

Jiang, the chief steward of the Imperial Household Department, always told her with a smile not to panic, and that she would be able to meet her mother and daughter on the Double Ninth Festival.

On the third day of September, the weather was unusually good and the sky was as blue as an inverted crystal.

After lunch, Concubine Jing's water broke.

The harem became busy for a while, and all the veterans of the Imperial Medical Bureau went to Jingren Palace to stand by.

Even the empress dowager, who usually lived in seclusion, came to Jingren Palace to take charge.

The concubines in the palace still remember the dream that Concubine Jing had during her pregnancy.

Peach blossoms in the arms, the main girl.

Now is the time when the fruit is ripe, and everyone wants to see if the dream about the pregnancy is true, so they make an appointment to go to the Queen's Palace to wait.

Concubine Jing's delivery went smoothly. In less than three hours, she gave birth to a chubby, fair baby.

It's a boy!

The emperor was also in Jingren Palace at this time, and the midwife's words made him overjoyed.

Concubine Jing gave birth to a healthy prince! The emperor could not hide his joy and immediately named the newborn baby: Hongzhan.

Sixth prince Hongzhan, his biological mother in this life is no longer Zhen Huan, but Concubine Jing.

Yes, because of the return of her son, Concubine Jing was immediately decreed by the Emperor to be named Concubine Jing.
