Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 438 Visiting an Old Friend

But it wouldn't be enough to rely on him alone, and she also understood that it was time for her to please the emperor.

After waiting for Wen Shichu to leave, Shen Meizhuang went towards the Yangxin Palace.

Calculating the time, the emperor is about to leave his morning court.

Shen Meizhuang was walking on the road that the emperor had to take when leaving court, looking left and right as if she was looking for something.

"I remember it was around here."

Shen Meizhuang muttered cautiously.

"Your Majesty, please look for it more carefully." Caiyue echoed and helped Shen Meizhuang look for it.

But soon, the emperor's procession arrived.

"Mei'er."

Seeing Shen Meizhuang here, the emperor called out softly.

"May your Majesty be blessed with peace and prosperity."

When Shen Meizhuang saw the emperor coming over, she looked calm and composed. When the emperor called her "Mei'er", Shen Meizhuang knew that this was a sure thing.

"What are you looking for?"

Seeing that Shen Meizhuang's attitude towards him was pretty good, the emperor moved even closer.

A smile flashed across Shen Meizhuang's lips. She was just waiting for the emperor to ask like this.

"When I first entered the palace, the emperor gave me a pair of bracelets, but now they are gone. I want to look for them everywhere."

When the emperor heard this, he thought it was not a big deal and that gold and silver jewelry were even easier to deal with.

"If it's lost, it's lost. There are plenty in the warehouse. Just go pick one."

The emperor said casually.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, but the bracelet is lost, and the feelings cannot be lost."

Shen Meizhuang lowered her head as she spoke, looking shy.

The emperor is the one who suffers from this the most. Today, Shen Meizhuang's attitude towards the emperor has changed a lot. How could the emperor not take this step?

Seeing that the emperor didn't say anything, Shen Meizhuang decided to say something else: "I have prepared breakfast in the palace. Would the emperor like to have some?"

For the emperor, this was an invitation from Shen Meizhuang.

Shen Meizhuang was also certain in her heart that the emperor would definitely go.

as predicted.

Seeing this, Su Peisheng quickly led his men to catch up. It was strange to say, why did Concubine Hui suddenly agree?

It was also on this day that Shen Meizhuang became favored.

But this was not what she wanted, and there was no other solution.

The news spread throughout the harem early the next morning.

Nian Shilan also got up early that day and called the concubines from all the palaces to pay their respects. Except for a few concubines who were under house arrest, all the others came.

Shen Meizhuang was favored last night, so when paying respects this morning, it was inevitable that some people would be sarcastic.

Concubine Qi was the first one.

"I heard that the emperor stayed at Huipin's place yesterday. He was really thoughtful."

Concubine Qi looked unhappy when she heard this. It was obvious that she had been reluctant before, but she took the initiative to seduce the emperor.

"Foxish thing."

Someone couldn't help but murmured below that there are many people who dislike Concubine Hui now.

But it's only Concubine Qi who talks a lot. People like An Lingrong dare not complain about anything.

"Congratulations, sister. When sister was promoted to a higher rank, Lingrong was supposed to go and congratulate her, but she has been suffering from a cough and has not recovered, so she has not been able to congratulate her."

Seeing that there was no movement, An Lingrong stood up to make her presence felt.

She is not stupid. Seeing that Shen Meizhuang was out of favor before, why would she want to get closer to her?

"Since your cough has not healed, Sister An should take good care of herself. There is no need to worry about unnecessary contact."

As she spoke, Shen Meizhuang turned her face away.

But this made An Lingrong even more embarrassed.

Nian Shilan saw all of this, and she had no intention of speaking out to help An Lingrong.

Her inherent inferiority complex and pettiness are really not worth it.

"Well, the emperor is busy with state affairs, so don't talk nonsense here. If there is jealousy in the harem, the court will naturally be restless. If you really want the emperor's best interests, you should let him worry less."

Nian Shilan said this to stop them from making noise.

"Yes."

"Now that the Queen is under house arrest, the Imperial Concubine has the final say in the harem. The Imperial Concubine is considerate of the Emperor, and we sisters naturally know that."

The one who spoke was Concubine Jing.

Nian Shilan spoke, and as sisters, she naturally had to agree with her.

But then again, although Nian Shilan is the most powerful person in the harem, when she really reached this point, she did not feel happy at all, as if things were no different from before.

Now that the queen is gone, I have one less competitor.

"Okay, I'm tired, sisters, please go away."

Nian Shilan has now thought of something more interesting.

It's been so long, it's time to go see that old friend.

Hearing that Nian Shilan intended to expel the guests, everyone bowed and dispersed.

"Songzhi, let's go to Jingren Palace. Jinxi will stay in Yikun Palace to keep an eye on Hongli."

After saying this, Nian Shilan went out.

Jingren Palace has always been the Queen’s residence. It is magnificent, strategically located, and close to the Yangxin Palace. After all, it is the central palace.

But no matter how magnificent it was, it was all in the past.

"Songzhi, go knock on the door."

Soon, Nian Shilan brought Songzhi to Jingren Palace.

The Jingren Palace at this time had changed a lot from its previous bustling scene. It was now desolate and depressed.

The person who opened the door was Jianqiu, who looked much older.

Seeing Nian Shilan standing outside the door, Jianqiu knew that nothing good would happen. She didn't want to let her in, but she couldn't stop her.

Nian Shilan ignored Jianqiu and went straight in.

"Jianqiu, who's here?"

Knowing that Jianqiu went to open the door, Yixiu sat in the room, thinking that it would be the emperor who came at this time. However, unexpectedly, when she looked up, the person standing in front of her was Nian Shilan!

"I hope your Majesty the Queen is well."

Nian Shilan's sharp tone reached the emperor's ears, and her smug look annoyed the queen just by looking at it.

Nian Shilan felt that this scene was familiar. After all, in her previous life, when she was in the cold palace, Zhen Huan came to see her like this.

But now, I am the winner!

"Hua Fei?!" the Queen said as she stood up.

But what she didn't know was that she was no longer the former Concubine Hua, but Concubine Hua Gui!

"Your Majesty is wrong. This is Concubine Hua."

Songzhi raised her voice and quickly corrected the queen.

But the queen found it even more ironic. "Noble Concubine Hua" was really ridiculous.

"How is the Empress' life in the cold palace? I never expected that the Empress, who used to be charming, has become even more old and ugly now."

The queen's appearance made Nian Shilan look very proud, but she was also right. When she first met the queen, she could see that she looked much older than before.

But isn't it her own fault that she has become what she is today?
