After leaving Jingren Palace, Zhen Huan called out again, "Sister Mei."

Shen Meizhuang stopped and turned to look at Zhen Huan.

Zhen Huan asked somewhat dissatisfiedly: "Sister Mei, why didn't you come to see me during the few days I entered the palace?"

Shen Meizhuang did not reply immediately, but looked at Cui Jinxi beside Zhen Huan and asked, "Are you the senior maidservant beside Concubine Wan?"

Cui Jinxi replied: "Yes, I am Cui Jinxi, the head maid of Suiyuxuan."

Shen Meizhuang asked again: "Aunt Jingxi, are you familiar with the rules of this palace?"

Cui Jinxi replied in confusion: "I have been in the palace for many years, so I am naturally familiar with the palace rules."

Zhen Huan asked in confusion: "Sister Mei, why are you asking this?"

Shen Meizhuang ignored Zhen Huan and asked Cui Jinxi, "Tell Concubine Wan the rules for meeting each other."

Cui Jinxi seemed to have just understood, and looked at Zhen Huan with some embarrassment and said to her, "My lady, among the concubines in the palace, when a high-ranking concubine wants to see a low-ranking concubine, they will summon the low-ranking concubine to the palace of the high-ranking concubine to meet."

Zhen Huan understood, but then she changed her mind and asked, "Is there no exception?"

Cui Jinxi replied: "Yes, if a concubine of a lower rank is sick or pregnant, a concubine of a higher rank will bring gifts to visit her."

Upon hearing this, Zhen Huan stamped her feet and said, "Sister Mei, we grew up together, why do we have to follow these rigid rules?"

Growing up together?

Zhen Yuandao was transferred to the capital when Zhen Huan was ten years old. Shen Meizhuang met Zhen Huan when she stayed at her maternal grandparents' home. The total time they spent together was no more than a month.

Shen Meizhuang's expression remained unchanged as she asked, "Then why don't you come to Xianfu Palace to see me?"

Zhen Huan felt a little guilty when she heard this.

These days, Zhen Huan was playing with Chun Changzai, who lived in Suiyuxuan with her, and had long forgotten about Shen Meiyu.

Chun Changzai's family background was also very good. Because of her good family background, she entered the palace at a young age.

Shen Meizhuang saw a trace of guilt flashing across Zhen Huan's face, and smiled, saying, "There will be plenty of time in the future. I am a little tired today, so I will take my leave first."

Zhen Huan wanted to say something, but she watched Shen Meizhuang leave with hesitation.

Shen Meizhuang had just walked a short distance when she saw An Lingrong and Xia Dongchun talking.

Seeing that the two were talking and laughing and there was no conflict, Shen Meizhuang raised her eyebrows and walked towards Xianfu Palace.

Because unlike in the previous life, the three of them first watched Xia Dongchun being given a ten-foot red beating, and then went to the direction of Sui Yuxuan. So, all the way to Xianfu Palace, no young eunuch appeared, and Shen Meizhuang did not go to see Fuzi in the well.

However, after returning to Xianfu Palace, Shen Meizhuang fell ill when she thought about Zhen Huan's trip back home.

Since Zhen Huan was ill and did not fight for favor, Shen Meizhuang had to be dealt with by the Queen and Concubine Hua alone.

Shen Meizhuang could handle it, but that was why she had to be so tired.

After thinking it over, Shen Meizhuang asked Caiyue to secretly go find Doctor Wen to pass on the message.

Doctor Wen was specially brought to the Imperial Medical Bureau by Shen's father. After Shen Meizhuang was reborn, she asked Shen's father to place an imperial physician in the palace.

In her previous life, Shen Meizhuang suffered several losses because she didn't have a royal physician in her control.

Shen Meizhuang doesn't want to see Wen Shichu anymore.

No love is as important as one's own life and the honor of one's family.

Besides, Wen Shichu likes Zhen Huan. What Zhen Huan doesn't want, he gives to Shen Meizhuang. What does Shen Meizhuang think?

Thinking back to before her death in her previous life, Shen Meizhuang told Zhen Huan everything about herself and Wen Shichu, and Shen Meizhuang really felt like she had lost her mind.
