The Queen has arrived: An Lingrong does not want to fight in the palace after her rebirth
Chapter 53 Night Detective
"My lady, what are you going to do, Miss Huanbi?"
Jinxi has noticed Huanbi's abnormal behavior in recent days. This servant who has been raised in the palace cannot be kept by the master's side anymore. It will only become a big trouble if she stays there.
Zhen Huan sighed softly, "It's all injustice." If anyone else had betrayed her, she would have found a way to deal with them, but Huanbi was not an outsider after all.
"Jinxi, go to the Queen and tell her that I will go to Xianyue Pavilion to visit Sister Mei tomorrow night."
Cui Jinxi thought for a moment and understood Zhen Huan's intention: "My lady, this is a good plan. It kills several birds with one stone. I will go right away."
The moon sets and the sun rises, another day begins.
In Qingliang Palace, Concubine Hua heard every word of Zhen Huan's conversation with the Emperor yesterday.
"How dare you, you bitch, mess up my important plan!" Concubine Hua gritted her teeth and cursed Zhen Huan.
Song Zhi cautiously advised, "Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, this is a good thing. If the Emperor really restores your palace power because of General Nian, then those people outside will start gossiping about you. The Emperor will definitely want to find a legitimate opportunity to reinstate you."
Song Zhi's persuasion reminded Concubine Hua of what the emperor said last night, and her heart suddenly warmed: "Yes, the emperor and I have a deep love for each other. The emperor must have listened to that bitch for my reputation, but I will not wait for the opportunity to come. If necessary, I will take back the power of the six palaces that belongs to me."
While Zhen Huan and Concubine Hua were scheming against each other, An Lingrong was hiding peacefully at Noble Lady Fucha's place, staring intently at Sang'er as she prepared medicinal food according to her prescription. In this life, she must keep a close eye on him to see if it was true, as she thought, that someone was slowly poisoning Noble Lady Fucha with chronic drugs, causing her temperament to change drastically, becoming frivolous and impetuous, and then she was easily plotted against.
After dinner, Zhen Huan got everything ready in Bitong Academy and prepared to go out.
Huanbi kept hesitating in her heart, should she report it? What if the young lady was found to be disobeying the emperor's order and the emperor severely punished her? But she thought of what Lipin had said, that as long as she helped Concubine Hua regain the power of the six palaces, she would get what she wanted.
She thought of the noble prince, and felt warmed at the thought that he did not look down on her because of her status. Concubine Hua had an outstanding family background, and now her brother had made military achievements. She thought that if she asked, the emperor would definitely agree.
Besides, the young lady is deeply favored by the emperor, so even if something happens, he would only give her a few scoldings. In the tapioca starch incident, didn’t the emperor just pick it up high and put it down gently?
Huanbi made up her mind, swallowed all the persuasion, and said, "Then the young master should go and come back as soon as possible."
Zhen Huan remained expressionless, just nodded in agreement, and walked out with Jin Xi and Liu Zhu.
In Qingliang Palace, Lipin hurried over to see Hua Fei. In the past, it was Cao Guiren who helped Hua Fei with advice, but ever since she accidentally discovered Huanbi's secret, she tried to use her for her own benefit and made her a secret agent beside Zhen Huan. Now, she knows everything about Zhen Huan's movements.
Lipin urged Huafei anxiously, "Your Majesty, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Zhen Huan is so bold that she dared to disobey the order and even wanted to bribe the guards to meet Shen Meizhuang in secret. Your Majesty should go there and capture her in one fell swoop. The Emperor will praise your decisiveness, and then even the Queen will be implicated."
Hua Fei felt that this opportunity came too coincidentally. She felt that something was wrong and asked hesitantly, "Where is Concubine Cao?"
When Concubine Li heard that she wanted to find Concubine Cao again, she became even more anxious. Cao Qinmo always considered everything before doing anything. If she came to persuade Concubine Hua not to take risks, wouldn't she miss this opportunity in vain? Or if she came up with a more perfect plan, she would have made wedding clothes for her in vain. How could she stand in front of Concubine Hua? So she squinted and said, "Your Majesty, you know her. Princess Wen Yi is the most important thing in everything. Look, tonight she said that the princess is not feeling well and she wants to take care of the princess."
Lipin was getting more and more anxious the more she thought about it. She couldn't wait to speak incoherently, "Your Majesty, I have already made inquiries. Huanbi saw Zhen Huan change into the clothes of a palace maid and wanted to sneak in when the guards changed shifts. Zhen Huan is now in cahoots with the Queen. Your Majesty cannot escape the consequences of this matter. Your Majesty, you must seize this opportunity."
After hearing what she said, Concubine Hua paced back and forth in the Qingliang Palace. She was undecided for a moment, fearing that Zhen Huan had deliberately set up a trap tonight, and that the favor she had finally won back would be lost in vain. But what if it was true? Zhen Huan would be trampled under her feet, and no one would dare to compete with her for favor in the future. In the end, she was persuaded by Concubine Li and took the palace maids and eunuchs to Xianyue Pavilion.
In Taohuawu, the queen said to Jianqiu calmly and calmly, "I will be the fisherman tonight."
Jian Qiu flattered her, "Your Majesty, you are truly well-planned. Nothing can escape your control."
The Queen was in a good mood and said, "It is also the Concubine Wan who needs her help. Since she has helped me solve this major problem, I will have to fulfill her wish for once."
Outside Xianyue Pavilion, since the Queen has been in charge of the harem, Huichun is the one who is responsible for taking care of Shen Meizhuang. At this time, she is leading Jinxi to fight against Concubine Hua.
"I heard that someone broke into the palace where the confined concubine was. I will never allow such a thing that disregards the emperor's will to happen under my nose. I will go in and see if it is true or not."
Jinxi spoke in a gentle tone but with a firm attitude: "Empress Hua, tonight only I brought people here to ask Miss Huichun to bring some clothes for Ms. Shen to change. No one else has entered Xianyue Pavilion. Please understand, Empress Hua."
Hua Fei naturally didn't believe it. Just as she was about to say a few more words, she suddenly heard the eunuch announce, "The Emperor has arrived!"
Hua Fei was shocked. Why did the emperor come here? She was suddenly panicked and had to bite the bullet and go forward to greet him.
However, before she could pay her respects, she saw Concubine Jing and Zhen Huan walking out of Concubine Jing's bedroom hand in hand.
Hua Fei's scalp felt numb for a moment. She had been fooled!
After the emperor asked the reason, his face became as gloomy as ink. He did not expect that Concubine Hua would be so bold. She completely ignored his oral order that no one could visit Shen Meiyu without his permission, and actually wanted to bring people into Xianyue Pavilion secretly. Is she really relying on the power of the Nian family?
"Hua Fei, do you have the Queen's warrant when you come to search the palace tonight?"
Hua Fei also knew that things would not end well tonight, so she only hoped that the emperor would consider their years of friendship and give her a lighter punishment. She said in a guilty plea, "I came in a hurry and have not yet asked for the Empress' handwritten letter. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Hua Fei's sophistry made the emperor believe that Hua Fei, relying on the Nian family's military achievements, had become so arrogant that she was challenging the imperial power. This was the thing he could not tolerate the most.
"Hua Fei, I originally wanted to restore your power to assist in managing the six palaces after the New Year, but now it seems that your heart is not right, so it is better for the Queen to handle the palace affairs."
"You have violated palace rules many times, and I have given you lenient punishments. I have allowed you to become even more outrageous. From tonight on, you will confine yourself to Qingliang Palace to reflect on your mistakes until you return to the palace."
"Also, you are not allowed to see my daughter anymore, lest you lead her astray."
"Su Peisheng, send Concubine Hua back to her palace. Tonight, each of the palace servants accompanying Concubine Hua will be punished with twenty strokes of the cane as a warning to others."
......
While the emperor was dealing with the disputes in the harem, no one expected that there was someone lurking quietly in the treetops outside Xianyue Pavilion.
