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

Inside the Sui Yuxuan, the Emperor and Zhen Huan were still being affectionate. In the Emperor's eyes, Zhen Huan was now a treasure that had been lost and found again. It was the white moonlight that he had longed for but could not obtain, shining into his heart again. He wished he could give her all the best treasures in the world.

The emperor first complained about the lack of staff in Suiyuxuan, and then complained about the simple decoration of Suiyuxuan. People from the Ministry of Internal Affairs went in and out of Suiyuxuan all afternoon.

The emperor even impulsively wanted to promote Zhen Huan's position, but when he thought of the incident in the imperial garden, he had to suppress this idea temporarily and wait until she slept with him before deciding on anything else.

After the emperor left, Zhen Huan was restless in the bedroom: "Jinxi, I'm afraid that after today's disturbance, many eyes will be on me in the future."

Jin Xi comforted her: "My lady, for now, the most important thing is to get the emperor's favor as soon as possible. With favor, you can truly gain a foothold in the palace. Now that the emperor has taken a fancy to you, you must make plans early."

Zhen Huan still had a worried look on her face: "It was originally a secret between us, but it has become known to everyone. The emperor naturally believes me now, but gossip can melt gold. I am afraid that there will be more twists and turns because of today's matter in the future."

Jin Xi hit the nail on the head: "My lady, you can never avoid the affairs of the harem without fighting. Once you enter the palace, you have no choice in life and death, happiness and disaster. What you have to do is to hold the grace and favor in your own hands, so that they will be afraid of you."

Zhen Huan nodded and began to worry about Shen Meizhuang: "I understand, but today, Meijie pleaded for me in the Imperial Garden, I am afraid that Concubine Hua will vent her anger on her."

Jinxi went on to comfort her, "My lady, Concubine Shen is very favored by the Emperor, and I think Concubine Hua will not make things difficult for her. You must cheer up now and plan for the future, so that you and Concubine Shen can rely on each other and support each other, and no one in the palace will dare to bully you."

Zhen Huan nodded: "This is the only way now. Go find Doctor Wen and see when I can recover."

During dinner, in Shoukang Palace, the emperor was chatting with the empress dowager.

"I am old now, I only hope that the emperor's harem can be harmonious, and that the concubines can serve the emperor wholeheartedly and continue the Qing dynasty's lineage."

The emperor certainly understood what the queen mother meant, and spoke softly, "It's my son's fault. The incident with Zhen was caused by my son's prank on a whim."

The Queen Mother knew that he was in high spirits and that it would be unpleasant to say anything harsh, so she said softly, "You have to understand that one should not put on shoes in a melon field, and one should not adjust his hat under a plum tree."

The emperor's face darkened slightly, and the queen mother glanced at him and continued, "Today's incident did allow Zhen to be taken advantage of, but since public opinion is boiling, let Zhen stay in Suiyuxuan and copy scriptures for me for a month."

This means that she will be confined to her house. The emperor was unhappy and was about to plead for mercy, but the empress dowager continued, "When it comes to matters in the harem, the most taboo is to treat everyone equally. An has been embroidering sutras for me for three months without the emperor saying anything. Why can't it be the same when it comes to Zhen?"

The emperor knew that the queen mother was angry with Zhen Huan. If he pleaded for her again, it would be even more difficult for her to get along with the queen mother in the future. He then said, "Just do as the queen mother says."

In Jingren Palace, Jianqiu gently told the Queen that Zhen Huan was confined by the Queen Mother. The Queen smiled knowingly: "Aunt still loves me."

In the Yikun Palace, Concubine Hua was furious. She slammed her bowl and chopsticks and said sternly, "In the past, even if the emperor didn't come to dinner, he would send someone to inform us. Today, there is no news at all. Zhen Huan is so shameless. She seduced the emperor in various ways in the imperial garden and embarrassed me so much."

Songzhi huddled aside and dared not to get angry, for fear that Concubine Hua would turn her anger towards her.

"Empress, great news." Zhou Ninghai limped into the main hall, shouting repeatedly.

Hua Fei looked at him coldly. Zhou Ninghai did not dare to delay and said immediately: "The Queen Mother has issued an imperial decree to ban Concubine Wan's feet."

Hua Fei smiled coldly: "The Queen has finally shown some generosity. Instruct that Wan Changzai sincerely copy scriptures for the Queen Mother. All the rations should be kept simple, and the meals should be even lighter."

Zhou Ninghai thought to himself, it sounds like this is not as good as An Lingrong's share. Well, it's Zhen Huan's fault for making the Queen so angry.

It only took one day for Suiyuxuan to go from quiet to noisy and then back to silence.

"My lady, what should we do? We can't go out, and Imperial Doctor Wen and Concubine Shen can't come in. Three meals a day are delivered by the imperial kitchen, and the necessary items have to be delivered through the Ministry of Internal Affairs. You are still sick, what should we do?" Liu Zhu was so anxious that she was turning around.

Zhen Huan and Cui Jinxi smiled at each other. Jinxi tried to comfort Liu Zhu, "Silly girl, your good fortune is yet to come. With this commotion, the Emperor and you will be of one mind. When you are released from the ban, you will be honored and favored. What does this little suffering mean now?"

Liu Zhu and Huan Bi were both delighted, but then they became worried and asked, "But the Empress Dowager has punished the young lady."

Zhen Huan didn't say anything, Jin Xi continued: "It's a punishment, but it's also a protection. Right now, the young lady is in the center of the storm, so it would be best for us at Sui Yu Xuan to avoid it for the time being."

The two maids then put their worries aside and put the Broken Jade Pavilion back into shape.

Although the emperor issued an oral order not to discuss what happened in the imperial garden today, a rumor still spread among the palaces.

In the Yanxi Palace, Noble Lady Fucha pulled An Lingrong to ask about what happened today. An Lingrong said solemnly, "Sister Fucha, it's better for you not to know about what happened in the Imperial Garden today. The Emperor has issued an order not to discuss it, and the Empress Dowager has also banned Concubine Wan from traveling. This rumor is very rare, and I'm afraid someone is trying to take advantage of the situation."

Seeing that she was serious, Noble Lady Fucha immediately realized that something was wrong and said, "Sang'er, gather everyone together. I have something to tell you."

Noble Lady Fucha gave all the palace servants in the Yanx Palace a good beating before letting them leave.

The rumors intensified and the content became more and more outrageous. Without exception, they all talked about how undisciplined Zhen Huan was and how she dared to meet a man outside her family in the Imperial Garden. She even played the piano in the middle of the night to express her love. After being exposed in public, she was found to have bewitched the emperor with her beautiful face that could bring disaster to the country.

The Queen issued warnings several times, but the rumors did not decrease but increased, and they showed signs of spreading to the previous dynasty.

The entire harem was in a state of impending turmoil.
