An Lingrong's Rebirth: Red

"Be flat."

Because Zhen Huan came in, Ling Rong and the Emperor stopped talking at the same time and turned their eyes to her.

Since Zhen Huan returned to the palace, Ling Rong has never been alone with her, let alone appearing in front of the emperor together.

Lingrong didn't want to stay any longer, but the moment she saw Zhen Huan she changed her mind and felt that staying here was not a bad thing.

"You are weak, why did you come here in such a hot summer?"

"Your Majesty, when I heard that the Third Prince was injured, I thought Your Majesty must be extremely worried, so I came to find Your Majesty to comfort him.

I didn't expect that Concubine Sheng would come so early. If I had known this, I wouldn't have needed to come."

Look at this, perfect speech in the book.

Ling Rong stood behind the emperor and smiled at Zhen Huan, "If I hadn't happened to meet the eunuch who went to find the imperial physician, I'm afraid I wouldn't know about this at this time."

Lingrong did not directly say that Zhen Huan was well-informed, but the emperor had already completed this sentence in his mind. After all, Concubine Sheng had the power to assist in managing the six palaces. Unless she was a fool, she would cultivate some people of her own, so it was normal for her to know some slight changes.

But Wan Changzai was completely different. Not only did she not have the authority to assist, she had even just walked out of Yongshou Palace not long ago. How could she be so well-informed?

"Since Concubine Wan is here, I will not stay any longer."

Ling Rong was about to leave, but was stopped by the Emperor, "Since both of you want to see the Third Prince, come with me."

"Yes."

No one knew what the emperor suddenly had in mind, but the two of them followed him to see the third prince.

Lingrong held Hongyu's little wooden horse, feeling lucky that she had pretended to bring some supplements with her, otherwise she wouldn't know how things would end when she got there.

Zhen Huan on the side was also well prepared. She also did not come empty-handed. The only difference between her and Ling Rong was the age and value of the supplements.

But as the emperor said, the value of the gift is not important, but what matters is the importance and thoughtfulness, so I think the Third Prince will not care about it either.

The Third Prince really didn't care about these little things. He was happy that the Emperor came to visit him again, which showed his love and attention for him.

But what made him unhappy was that the two people who came were his stepmothers, not his biological mother.

But the Third Prince still had to greet them with a smile. After all, these two stepmothers were favored by the Emperor, especially Concubine Sheng, who had helped his mother to meet him secretly. He couldn't just treat them coldly.

Ling Rong also didn't expect that in order to ask Li Changzai about the news of Queen Chunyuan, she used meeting the Third Prince as an exchange, which would also leave a good impression on the Third Prince.

Even the Third Prince was very surprised by the wooden horse given by Hongyu, and he asked someone to put it on the desk as a treasure.

The emperor was even happier to see the brothers being friendly and respectful to each other. He did not want his sons to be scheming against each other. He had seen too many fratricide during the nine sons' fight for the throne. Now that he was old, he hoped that his sons could live in peace and not repeat the same mistakes.

"When Hongyu is older, we can ride horses together."

"It's a good thing to ride together. What happened today should never happen again."

The emperor was half admonishing and half showing concern. Seeing the Third Prince having to lie in bed to recuperate, how could he not feel distressed as a father?

"My son understands."

The Third Prince was just happy, but he immediately became depressed after hearing the Emperor's words.

Lingrong did not say anything to comfort him. After all, she was not very familiar with the Third Prince. In addition, the Emperor had just mentioned Hongyu. If she spoke at this time, it would seem as if she was intentionally saying that the Emperor scolded the Third Prince because he was afraid that Hongyu would fall.

Zhen Huan didn't have this concern, but since Ling Rong, who was a concubine, didn't say anything, she just sat quietly aside, contentedly being a wooden beauty.

"As long as you know."

Unexpectedly, the emperor was also a man who couldn't speak. As soon as he finished speaking, the whole palace was filled with awkwardness.

Lingrong felt like her head was about to explode, and she had to jump out and pretend to be the good guy to ease the atmosphere.

"The Emperor is very worried about the Third Prince's injury, but when he said this, he turned into a strict father again.

You should also tell Third Prince what you said to me."

"Hongshi is a boy," the emperor sighed, but did not continue to admonish him. "Just take a good rest, don't rush to recover."

"Yes, Huang Ama."

The Third Prince's face finally showed some color. He hesitated for a while and then asked, "Father, I haven't seen my mother for a long time. Can I..."

Fearing that the Emperor would be angry, the Third Prince stopped talking halfway. The Emperor "lived up to everyone's expectations" and his face darkened, which made the Third Prince's heart begin to beat fast again.

"Huang Ama..."

"Third Prince," the emperor did not speak, so Lingrong could only jump out to be the peacemaker. At this moment, she understood the queen's helplessness, "You were seriously injured because of riding a horse, and you should have told your mother.

But I didn't tell her now because I took into consideration that Li Changzai is far away in the Forbidden City and can't come here at all. I'm afraid she can only worry and be unable to sleep at night."

"Yes, Third Prince."

Zhen Huan also spoke to comfort him. She first looked at the emperor's expression before continuing to talk to the Third Prince, "Even if we want to let Li Changzai know, we have to wait until your condition gets a little better.

Otherwise, when you meet, you will only worry about each other, and you won’t be able to express your longing for each other.”

The two of them took turns to comfort the Third Prince, and only then did he temporarily put his mind at ease. Fortunately, the father and son did not quarrel, which made the two of them feel relieved.

The emperor was probably afraid that the third prince would make excessive demands, so he did not stay any longer and left with the two of them.

There is already a hint of black on the horizon. If we continue to fight, it will become a drama of fighting for the emperor to go to his palace to rest.

Lingrong felt that she could not compete with Zhen Huan, so she said goodbye halfway and found an excuse that she had to settle accounts with Concubine Jing.

The emperor did not ask any more questions, just nodded and let Lingrong leave. There was no need to make any more choices at this time, so the emperor followed Zhen Huan directly to Yuedi Yunju.

"How did Wan Wan know about the Third Prince's injury?"

Zhen Huan clenched her handkerchief tightly. She knew that the emperor was becoming suspicious again. Now she could only deal with him carefully so as not to anger him again.

"I ran into the Fifth Prince when I was out and about, and that's how I learned the news."

Zhen Huan's meeting with the Fourth Prince was private, but her meeting with the Fifth Prince was open to the public. The two of them were at the gate of Yuedi Yunju, and it was possible that they were seen by servants passing by, so Zhen Huan did not deliberately hide the fact.

Anyway, the emperor will only check whether the meeting with the Fifth Prince is true, and he will not ask the Fifth Prince what the two of them talked about.

Seeing that Zhen Huan spoke frankly, the emperor did not continue to ask what the two had talked about. However, it was strange that the Fifth Prince ran to the vicinity of Yuedi Yunju, after all, his residence was not in that direction.

"Did Hong Zhou come to you specifically?"

"No, the Fifth Prince said he was..." Zhen Huan once again denied the existence of the Fourth Prince and instead said that the Fifth Prince was strolling around and passed by Yuedi Yunju.

"His brother just got injured, yet he still has the mind to hang around."

The emperor frowned, and there was some displeasure in his words. Zhen Huan noticed it very keenly, so she opened her mouth and made a few words to defend him.

"I think he was worried and couldn't concentrate on his studies, so he came out for a walk to relieve his worries.

After all, when he talked about the Third Prince with me, his concern didn’t seem fake.”

"There is no need to defend him. I understand Hong Zhou's character very well."

The emperor obviously had some understanding of these sons. In his eyes, Hong Zhou would not worry about his brother's injury at all.

"Wanwan, you surprised me a little."

"How did I surprise the Emperor?" Zhen Huan's heart sank again, worried that the Emperor had discovered her secret plot, but there was nothing wrong on her face. She still had a slightly puzzled expression with a hint of smile.

"You have a good relationship with these brothers."

Zhen Huan sighed upon hearing this, she raised her handkerchief and pressed it against the corners of her eyes, and after a long while she spoke out the reason, "I have always wanted to raise a child with the emperor, watch him grow up, watch him get married and have children, or even get married.

I have been looking forward to such a good day day and night, but it never came.

After all, my body had been harmed by a villain a long time ago, and I can no longer bear children for the emperor.

The Third Prince and the Fifth Prince are both the Emperor's children. As their stepmother, I should take good care of them.

There is indeed a little selfishness in this, that is, I also regard them as the offspring of me and the emperor, which can be regarded as fulfilling the unattainable dream of bearing children for the emperor. "

"It's really hard to be pregnant for ten months."

The emperor's words had an ambiguous meaning. After all, he no longer doted on Zhen Huan as much as he did when she entered the palace.

Zhen Huan is now just a gentle shadow in the world, a tool for him to soothe his troubled thoughts.

Zhen Huan nodded. She had never actually given birth to a child, but she had some understanding of pregnancy.

"It is precisely because I have gained and lost before that I care so much about you, my brothers.

I don’t want Your Majesty to experience the pain of losing a child again. Fortunately… Third Prince’s injury will heal in a few days.”

"Wanwan wants a child?"

Zhen Huan wiped her tears and smiled bitterly when she heard the emperor's words. "I am no longer blessed to bear children for your majesty. Your Majesty... Your Majesty, please go to another sister's palace to rest."

"What about you? Do you want a child?"

"Can I really have my own child? But my body..." Zhen Huan's eyes were filled with tears, and she leaned into the emperor's arms, "I have long since stopped thinking about it, Your Majesty."

"If you want, I will think of something for you."

The emperor had always missed the child that Rouze had difficulty giving birth to. He wanted to raise a child of his and Rouze, so that the child could prove that there was a woman like Rouze in this world.

"Really? I think the emperor is just trying to coax me. I have been unable to have children for a long time."

Zhen Huan was ecstatic in her heart, but her face still showed self-pity, which made the emperor feel distressed. He coaxed her with sweet words for a long time.

After a while, Zhen Huan finally stopped crying. The two of them walked to Yuedi Yunju. "Your Majesty, will you really give me a child?"

"I have never lied to you, just rest assured."

What Zhen Huan wanted in her heart was one of the three older princes, but she didn't dare to speak out, fearing that the emperor would notice her feelings.

"How is Your Majesty going to fulfill my dream? Are you going to ask the imperial physician to treat me?"

The two finally sat down, and the waiters slowly retreated. The emperor did not hide it from Zhen Huan at this time, "I have thought about giving the seventh prince to you to raise. Chun Da Ying did something wrong, and her mind is very vicious, so she is not suitable to raise Hong Lu anymore.

Now Honglu is still young and can only be raised in the prince's residence, without the love of his mother. Wanwan happens to have a kind mother's heart. Are you willing to take care of Honglu for me?"

Although Zhen Huan had just returned to the palace, she knew that the Seventh Prince was in very poor health. From Concubine Jing, she even learned that Honglu might die young.

Zhen Huan didn't want a child who died young, but she still looked a little happy. "Of course I am willing, but... although Chun Da Ying didn't raise the Seventh Prince well, she is his biological mother after all.

If their mother-son relationship were severed like this, wouldn't they be too pitiful?

Especially the Seventh Prince, he is still so young, and I am worried that he cannot accept the separation from mother and will be sad every day.

After all, worrying hurts the body, and if it hurts the Seventh Prince, it will be my fault."

The emperor was naturally aware of what Zhen Huan had said, but Chun promised that such a cruel and ruthless person was indeed not suitable to raise a child.

"Your Majesty..." Zhen Huan hesitated for a moment, then spoke again slowly, "Mother-child separation is the greatest suffering in the world. If Chun promised to pass away now, I would immediately take the Seventh Prince to my side and take care of him meticulously.

But Chun promised that she is still alive, and she treats the Seventh Prince very well. How can I, a concubine, separate them?

The Emperor may have asked the Seventh Prince for his opinion. Is he really willing to leave his mother?"

Zhen Huan's words touched the emperor's heart. When he was sent away, no one asked him whether he was willing or not.

At that time, he felt resentful for a long time, and it took a long time for him to calm down with the care of Tong Jia's mother.

But the knot of feeling that his mother abandoned him has never been resolved and remains in his heart until now.

But now, for his own selfish reasons, he actually wanted Honghui to repeat his mistakes. He had completely forgotten the torment he suffered when he was away from his biological mother.

But the Queen Mother...

When the emperor thought of the empress dowager's special favor towards the fourteenth prince and her disregard for him, he couldn't help feeling hatred in his heart.

It’s the same thing, cutting flesh and bleeding, why does mother only care about the fourteenth brother?

"Your Majesty," Zhen Huan saw that the emperor was hesitant, so she continued to comfort him, "I will work hard to take care of my body, and sooner or later I will be able to give birth to another child for Your Majesty."
