031 Building Dongfu

During this joyous gathering, the wine glass in Hua Fei's hand accidentally slipped. The crisp sound broke the excitement around her and attracted the attention of Yinzhen and Yixiu.

Yixiu looked at Concubine Hua with a frown on her face, and said with dissatisfaction in her tone: "Concubine Hua, today is a happy day, why are you suddenly crying?"

Hua Fei seemed to have been prepared. She gently raised her head, with a hint of drunkenness and a slightly trembling voice: "Please forgive me, Your Majesty, I was moved when I saw Concubine Wan dancing the "Jinghong Dance"."

Upon hearing this, Yinzhen's eyes flashed with doubt: "When Queen Chunyuan performed the "Jinghong Dance" in the past, you had not yet entered the palace, how could you have such feelings for her?"

Hua Fei bowed her head slightly, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, and bowed again, saying: "I have nothing to do in my spare time, so I often read books and articles in the palace. Recently, I read "Lou Dong Fu" by Mei Fei of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty, and I deeply felt the emotions in it.

The "Jinghong Dance" was originally performed by Concubine Mei when she was in favor, and the "Loudong Fu" was written when she was imprisoned in Shangyang Palace. Today, when I see the "Jinghong Dance" and think of the "Loudong Fu", I feel very sad for Concubine Mei's experience. "

After hearing this, Yinzhen smiled with interest and said, "You have never paid attention to poetry and books, but now you are so interested in it."

Hua Fei stared at Yin Zhen, tears glistening in her eyes, and said slowly: "I am ignorant, but I have heard that poetry and books can improve one's character. I know that I have no virtue and no talent. If I don't cultivate myself, I really have no face to serve the emperor anymore."

Her words were full of sincerity and self-blame, which made Yinzhen feel a little sympathetic towards her. The atmosphere around them also became heavy because of her words.

Yinzhen was moved by Concubine Hua's deep affection. He asked softly, "Since you have such a profound understanding of "Loudong Fu", can you recite it to me?"

Hua Fei nodded and recited slowly with tears in her eyes: "The jade mirror is covered with dust, and the phoenix box is destroyed with fragrance.

The skillful combing of the lazy cicada's hair, the casual threading of the light edge of the clothes.

I feel lonely in the Hui Palace, but my thoughts are fixed on the Orchid Palace.

……

Old joy is like a dream, the past is lamentable.

Thinking of the end of your kindness, I feel sad that my life is so short.

Who would have thought that the emperor's heart was unsteady and could not be questioned;

Who would have thought that my fate would be so unfortunate?

……

Who would have thought that sadness would only get worse when one is in a good situation?

Concentrate on thinking and soothing your heart, even at a banquet you forget to eat;

……

I swear to be like the mountains and seas and to be everlasting, like the sun and the moon and to have no rest.

......"

As Hua Fei recited, her voice gradually became choked. When she recited to the part "How can I be jealous of her mediocrity and filled with envious anger? She took away my favor and banished me to the secluded palace," she had already choked with sobs and could no longer continue.

Tears glistened in her eyes, and she looked at Yinzhen affectionately and sadly, as if every drop of tears was telling of her helplessness and pain.

Hua Fei's sorrowful look moved everyone present. They sighed and lamented Hua Fei's tragic experience and deep affection.

Yinzhen was also moved by Hua Fei's deep affection. He walked to Hua Fei's side and gently patted her shoulder to comfort her.

Prince Dun could not help but feel sympathy for Concubine Hua. He stood up and said to Yinzhen respectfully, "Your Majesty, Concubine Hua's affairs are your Majesty's harem affairs. I should not say much. But Concubine Hua has served Your Majesty for a long time. She has always been conscientious and dedicated over the years. I have never heard of her making any major mistakes. If there is any inadequacy in her service, please forgive her for her hard work in accompanying Your Majesty for many years."

Yinzhen was moved by Hua Fei's deep affection and Prince Dun's request. He stared at Hua Fei, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. He couldn't help but sighed to Hua Fei: "It's really not easy for you."

He pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "Get up, I will go to Qingliang Palace to see you in a few days."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Hua's face lit up with joy, her eyes sparkling with tears, and she was deeply moved.

She quickly stood up to thank him, her voice choking with sobs: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will definitely fulfill my duty and live up to your grace."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the concubines at the banquet changed one after another, especially the Queen. Her face, which was already slightly unhappy, was now even more shrouded in a layer of gloom.

After the banquet, Zhen Huan and An Lingrong walked side by side in the front, followed by Cao Qinmo.

"Sister Cao is really thoughtful." Zhen Huan praised softly.

"What do you mean, sister Wan?" Cao Qinmo asked with a smile.

"If sister hadn't started with the 'Jinghong Dance', how could you have cleverly introduced Concubine Hua's 'Loudong Fu'?" Zhen Huan replied calmly.

Cao Qinmo pretended to be confused and said, "I am completely confused by what Sister Wan said."

"Since Sister Cao doesn't understand the meaning, I, your sister, am even more confused." Zhen Huan sighed softly.

"Sister Wan, you should concentrate on taking care of the dragon fetus that An promised you. After all, this is what the emperor is most concerned about." Cao Qinmo reminded.

"Of course." Zhen Huan agreed, and then the two of them left.

"Sister, is there anything important?" An Lingrong asked softly with a hint of concern on her face.

Zhen Huan nodded slightly, her expression solemn, "Rong'er, what I'm concerned about is the spices. Have you prepared them according to my requirements?"

An Lingrong responded, "Don't worry, sister. I have prepared the spices according to your instructions. I have also been taking the conditioning medicine prescribed by Doctor Wei on time."

"This is a prescription carefully adjusted by Wei Lin. After using it and sleeping with him, it will definitely help you conceive an heir to the throne." Zhen Huan took out a prescription.

"Sister, is this medicine really that magical?" An Lingrong asked with a hint of curiosity.

"I found this with great difficulty. I have asked Wei Lin to come over. He will prescribe the prescription for you later. You must seize the opportunity tonight. Once you miss it, the situation in the harem may change again." Zhen Huan warned earnestly.

An Lingrong nodded and said firmly: "Sister, I understand. I will definitely not let you down and will seize the opportunity tonight."

As night fell, Huanbi quietly walked into the house and reported softly: "My lady, Miss An has gone to the Qinzheng Palace."

Zhen Huan nodded slightly and said calmly, "Yes."

Huanbi seemed a little worried and continued, "My lady, since An agreed to be pregnant, the emperor has rarely come to Bitong Academy. Aren't you worried?"

Zhen Huan sighed softly and said firmly, "What's the use of worrying? Don't worry, Lingrong and I and Sister Mei are like sisters, so we will naturally help each other."

After hearing this, Huanbi felt relieved and replied respectfully, "I understand."

The next morning, Su Peisheng came to Bitong Academy to convey the imperial decree, saying that Yinzhen wanted to summon Zhen Huan.

Zhen Huan dressed up a little and followed Su Peisheng to the Qinzheng Palace.

After arriving at the Qinzheng Palace, Zhen Huan stood at the door and only heard some faint sounds coming from the road.

"The court is currently in the midst of a military operation in the southwest. General Nian Gengyao commands a large number of troops and is extremely important to the safety of the country. I hope the emperor can think carefully and make a prudent decision."

"Although Concubine Hua has made mistakes, the court is currently in need of personnel. For the sake of the overall situation, perhaps we can consider temporarily forgiving her and adopting expedient measures."

……

Yinzhen pondered for a moment, and finally spoke slowly: "I know what to do with these things, you can leave for now."

Several ministers responded respectfully: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhen Huan stood aside, knowing in her heart that these were all messages that Yinzhen had intentionally let her hear.

She found it a little funny, but she also understood the hidden meaning behind it.

Afterwards, several ministers came out one after another. When they saw Zhen Huan, they bowed and greeted her.

Zhen Huan responded with a smile, and then, led by Xiao Xia Zi, walked into the inner hall.
