Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Zhen Huan

Yu Ying'er did as Zhen Huan said and did not appear in front of the emperor for many days, which made the emperor feel a little uncomfortable.

Ever since that day in Suiyuxuan when he appointed Yu Ying'er as an official lady, whenever the emperor felt bored, he would ask Yu Ying'er to sing a few songs to cheer him up.

But now he can't even see the person, and the emperor always feels like something is missing by his ear.

Su Peisheng felt anxious when he saw the emperor like this, so he secretly sent someone to invite Yu Ying'er over.

Although the emperor said that Su Peisheng has become more bold now, the interest shown on his face cannot deceive anyone.

As Zhen Huan benefited from this, Yu Ying'er became more willing to run to Sui Yuxuan.

The only thing Zhen Huan was worried about these days was Shen Meizhuang's management of the six palaces.

She wanted to have a good talk with Shen Meizhuang, but she never found a suitable opportunity.

It was because she and Shen Meizhuang grew up together that she understood her better than anyone else.

Shen Meizhuang has an arrogant and competitive nature, so there are many things that she would rather not do. But once she decides to do something, she will try her best to do it well. You can tell from her previous life.

Zhen Huan was afraid that if Shen Meizhuang was determined to perform well, but she kept dissuading her, it would affect the relationship between the sisters.

So he asked Yu Ying'er to find out what Concubine Hua had to say.

Yu Ying'er said that Concubine Hua had secretly asked someone to find an imperial physician and was closely preparing something, but it was not known when exactly to start.

Zhen Huan recalled that in her previous life, Concubine Hua used Liu Bin to frame Sister Mei for faking pregnancy in order to win favor, and Cao Qinmo used Prince Guo with just a few words to almost make the Emperor suspicious of her.

I didn’t expect that they had arranged everything so early, just waiting for Sister Mei to take the bait.

On this day, everyone went to Jingren Palace to pay their respects as usual.

After the ceremony, the Queen began to praise Shen Meizhuang:

"Mrs. Shen is really smart and studious. She always understands many things at a glance. Since the emperor asked Mrs. Shen to help take care of the affairs of the six palaces, I feel that the burden on my shoulders has been lightened a lot."

In the previous life, Zhen Huan really didn't realize that the Queen was so concerned about Shen Meizhuang's assistance in managing the six palaces -

She seemed afraid that others didn't know how powerful Shen Meizhuang was, and she wanted to praise Shen Meizhuang all the time.

This was like adding fuel to the fire, pointing all the blame at Shen Meizhuang.

But looking at the happiness on Shen Meizhuang's face after being praised by the Queen, Zhen Huan knew that she was now blinded by vanity, just like in her previous life.

In Zhen Huan's eyes, Shen Meizhuang is smart, but also very ambitious. It has always been her wish to bring glory to the family.

Didn’t she know in her previous life that this would make the harem wary?

I'm afraid he knew it in his heart, but he was suddenly praised so highly that he was inevitably overly happy and just thought about performing well.

When people cannot touch power, it is just an idea, but when they really have the opportunity to touch power with their own hands, they will inevitably be blinded by the clouds.

After paying respects, as soon as they left Jingren Palace, Zhen Huan grabbed Shen Meizhuang's hand:

"Sister Mei, you have been busy helping the Queen manage the six palaces these days, and it's been difficult for you to see me!"

Shen Meizhuang looked behind her:

"Huan'er, you just make fun of me."

As she spoke, she took Zhen Huan's hand and walked forward, saying:

"But I have been quite busy recently. It is summer now and there are many trivial matters in the harem. The Queen has asked me to do more..."

Zhen Huan smiled and said, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I wonder if you are free now to come to my palace and sit with me?"

"That's exactly what I was thinking!"

As they talked, the group laughed all the way to Suiyuxuan.

"Sister Mei, Huan'er has something to say to you."

Zhen Huan went up and held Shen Meiyu's hand. Although she didn't want to break Shen Meiyu's dream with her own hands, after thinking about it, she felt that she had to say it.

Shen Meizhuang saw Zhen Huan's serious expression and knew she was not joking:

"Huan'er, there is nothing we can't talk about between us. Just say whatever you want to say."

"If Huan'er wants to persuade Sister Mei not to be too concerned about assisting in managing the six palaces, will Sister Mei think Huan'er has some selfish motives?"

Shen Meizhuang shook her head: "Huan'er, if you say that, you will alienate me! Others may not know what kind of person you are, but don't I know it?"

Shen Meizhuang looked at Zhen Huan:

"When the emperor first came to me to talk about this matter, I also felt that I was inexperienced and not qualified for the job, so I declined the offer, but the emperor was firm in his attitude, so I..."

"So what does sister think now?"

"Now that I think about it, since I've done it, I must have secretly wanted to do it well. What's wrong? Huan'er, do you think there's anything wrong with it?"

"Sister, have you ever thought about why the emperor chose you, a newcomer, when there are old ladies like Concubine Jing, Concubine Duan, and Concubine Qi in the palace?"

"In other words, if we let new people manage us in the future, how will my sister feel?"

Shen Meizhuang kept twirling the handkerchief in her hand: "If the newcomers manage us well, it's fine, but if they don't, we will definitely not accept it in our hearts."

"A person with a good temper like my sister would think so, let alone someone like Concubine Hua."

"But the Emperor..."

Zhen Huan knew that Shen Meizhuang was deeply in love with the Emperor, and she did not want to discourage her enthusiasm:

"This is what the Queen Mother meant. The Queen Mother hates the situation where one person dominates the harem the most, so she wants to support a newcomer to fight against Concubine Hua."

"So, from the beginning to the end, I was just a pawn used by the Queen Mother to deal with Concubine Hua..."

"Sister Mei, who in this harem has never been a chess piece?"

"Even the Emperor sometimes has to change his mind because of things that happened in the past, let alone us?"

After listening to Zhen Huan's words, Shen Meizhuang felt that they made sense. Although she felt unhappy when she first heard about it, she also understood that she should face the reality early.

"Huan'er, you are younger than me, but I didn't expect you to see things so much more clearly than I do!"

Zhen Huan said jokingly: "In terms of age, I am not older than Sister Mei, but in terms of mental age, I am much older than Sister Mei!"

What Zhen Huan said was true. After all, if her age in her previous life was added, she would be older than the Empress Dowager!

The two laughed for a while, and Shen Meizhuang took Zhen Huan's hand seriously again:

"Huan'er, I still want to thank you this time. In this palace, you are the only one who would say such heartfelt words to me."

"Sister Mei, don't forget that we agreed to support each other for the rest of our lives!"

"Okay, forever!"
