Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Zhen Huan
Chapter 425: Zhen Huan Wants to Accept Huanbi as Her Stepsister
Hearing the emperor say this, Zhen Huan immediately smiled and bowed to the emperor and said:
"I, on behalf of Huanbi, would like to thank the Emperor for his grace."
Since there is no way to change the outcome, all I can do is try to gain as much benefit for Huanbi as possible...
After saying this, she did not forget to look at Huanbi meaningfully.
Huanbi immediately understood and kowtowed to the emperor to express her gratitude:
"Thank you very much, Your Majesty, for your grace. Thank you very much, Your Majesty, for your grace."
When the emperor's eyes were focused on Huanbi, Zhen Huan quickly glanced at Meng Jingxian's expression:
She frowned, bit her lower lip, her face turned pale, her eyes stared at the ground blankly, her hands were placed on her legs, tightly twisting the handkerchief in her hand.
Zhen Huan knew that Meng Jingxian would never let this matter go!
After all, if this incident had not happened today, after she gave birth to the child, she could use some tricks and Prince Guo would not have to leave the position of the first wife to her...
In other words, after being in the palace for so long, she had already considered herself the wife of Prince Guo.
And the only one!
Now, a maid who is even lower in status and position than her, and can be said to be the lowest of the low, has climbed over her head. How can she be willing to accept this?
Thinking of this, Zhen Huan couldn't help but feel sorry for Huanbi:
Because she knew how difficult the road ahead would be for Huanbi if she married Prince Guo!
From the outside, Meng Jingxian seems weak and sickly, but when it comes to scheming, Meng Jingxian is definitely not an ordinary person!
Otherwise, she wouldn't have spread the news of her love for Prince Guo to everyone in and outside the capital before she married him...
At the same time, Meng Jingxian was thinking quickly in her mind:
Although she wanted to stand up and refute, she knew that things could not be changed.
If she angered the emperor because of this and gave Prince Guo the impression that she was jealous, her future situation would be even more difficult!
Therefore, she could only place her hopes on Prince Guo, hoping that Prince Guo would just marry Huanbi instead of marrying her as the emperor said!
But it was obvious that Prince Guo didn't think the same way...
What he valued was never Huanbi as a person!
But the role that Huanbi can play in his great cause——
Except to a certain extent, Huanbi's life experience can be used to restrain Zhen Huan.
He also wanted to use Huanbi to deal with Zhen Huan, and it would be best if the two sisters could become enemies!
After all, Huanbi has followed Zhen Huan since she was a child, and she knows everything Zhen Huan does.
If things really develop as he imagined, getting rid of Zhen Huan would be just around the corner!
Regardless of whether the matter succeeds or not, Prince Guo was thinking this way in his mind.
The thought only lasted for a moment. Just as Prince Guo was about to bow his hands to thank the emperor, Ye Lanyi's voice suddenly sounded in his ears:
"Your Majesty, if Huanbi is made the principal wife, how will Concubine Meng, who is now pregnant, cope with the situation in the palace?"
She doesn't care whether the emperor is happy or not!
At this moment, she could only see the thoughts in her heart——
Even if Prince Guo wants to marry, he should marry the most beautiful and best woman in the world!
And that person definitely cannot be a maid of humble origin!
"Ye promised, even my Seventeenth Brother and Concubine Meng didn't say anything, why are you so excited?"
Faced with Ye Lanyi's continuous words to speak up for Prince Guo, the emperor had lost his patience:
"I usually see you as a quiet person, not someone who cares about these things. Why are you acting out of character today and caring so much about the identity of the person your Seventeenth Brother is marrying?"
"Your Majesty, this is also for..." Ye Lan Yi was stunned for a moment, then stood up and explained to the emperor.
Before she could finish her words, Concubine Hua interrupted her with a smile:
"Your Majesty, I think Ye Ying said this for your sake, right?"
"Prince Guo is a handsome and elegant man, and he is also your Majesty's younger brother. Ye promised that she has always been straightforward, so it is inevitable that she would show some concern..."
"What bad intentions could she have?"
As she spoke, Concubine Hua walked up to the emperor, picked up the wine glass on the table, poured a glass for the emperor, and said with a smile:
"Your Majesty, today is the princess' birthday, a very happy day, Your Majesty, you should not be angry!"
"Besides...Your Majesty, you are the emperor. You can fulfill whoever you want. It's just a matter of a word! What's there to be angry about?"
While smiling and comforting the Emperor, Concubine Hua quickly glanced around the palace. Her eyes passed over Ye Lan'yi and finally stayed on Zhen Huan for a moment before returning to the Emperor.
"However, what Ye Cheng said does make sense..."
She continued what she had just said:
"Although Huanbi is by Concubine Xi's side, she is just a maid after all. If the emperor wants to help the prince, he needs to put some effort into this matter!"
As soon as these words came out, Zhen Huan immediately looked at the emperor and knelt down and said:
"Your Majesty, since Prince Guo is in love with Huanbi, I think he will not want to treat her badly."
"Huanbi has been with me since she was young, just like a sister. I am willing to recognize her as my sister, add her name to the family tree, and marry her into Prince Guo's mansion as the second daughter of the Zhen family in a grand ceremony."
"Empress Xi should stop feeling sorry for Huanbi!"
Ye Lanyi looked at Zhen Huan expressionlessly, and deliberately raised her voice and said:
"Now that Concubine Meng is pregnant, do we really have to let her endure other people's contempt and ridicule for this matter?"
As Ye Lan Yi spoke, she squinted her eyes angrily and glanced with disdain at Huanbi who was kneeling on the ground.
She looked down on Huanbi, and even more so didn't want Prince Guo to marry her!
After all, even though Ye Lanyi loved Prince Guo deeply, she never expected to be with him.
Because of the difference in status and identity, she had to suppress the throbbing in her heart!
If Huanbi really married him as a concubine, she would feel unbalanced and would find it hard to accept!
Zhen Huan knows Ye Lan Yi's thoughts!
After all, in her previous life, she tried every means to prevent the emperor from letting Huanbi marry Prince Guo as his concubine!
The point of loving someone and loving his dog is fully reflected in Ye Lanyi——
Because of love, she was willing to endure the pain in her heart just to make Prince Guo happy...
But the emperor is not a fool!
He was suspicious to begin with, and Ye Lanyi had spoken up for Prince Guo openly many times, which had already displeased the emperor...
Thinking of this, Zhen Huan decided to add fuel to the emperor's suspicion!
Maybe he can use the emperor's suspicion of Ye Lanyi to achieve his own goals!
So, when Zhen Huan saw the emperor's gloomy face and glanced at Ye Lanyi, she immediately looked at the emperor and said:
"Ye Da Ying's wholehearted consideration for Prince Guo and Concubine Meng really makes me admire her from the bottom of my heart!"
"But... Prince Guo and Concubine Meng didn't say anything. It seems a bit..."
Zhen Huan did not continue speaking, but looked up at the emperor.
The emperor understood what Zhen Huan meant, so he looked at Meng Jingxian and asked calmly:
"Mrs. Meng, I want to ask you, if I allow Huanbi to marry Prince Guo, will you really be unable to survive in the palace because of the cold stares and ridicule of others, as Ye Ying said?"
