After Huanbi was reborn, she became the prince's favorite

Looking at Huanbi's leaving back, Zhen Huan remembered that Huanbi once told her that if she encountered any uncertainties, she would stand behind the young lady and pull her clothes as a reminder. This could also be regarded as a secret signal between the two of them.

Thinking of this, Zhen Huan smiled. This girl was getting smarter and smarter. If it weren't for Huanbi, she really didn't know how to deal with what happened these times.

In Jingren Palace, the Queen sent everyone away, leaving only Jianqiu.

She looked at the teacup on the table and said guiltily, "Pour out the tea quickly before anyone finds out."

Jianqiu picked up the teacup and was about to go out, but the queen stopped her again, "Wait, it's not safe outside, pour the tea into that flowerpot." She pointed to the flowerpot on the windowsill.

Jianqiu responded calmly, but her hand holding the teacup began to tremble involuntarily, and her heartbeat quickened. She held the cup with both hands and poured the tea into the flowerpot, and a few drops of tea fell onto the table because of her trembling hands.

"Wipe it off quickly! It will be bad if someone finds it." The queen stared at the flowerpot, afraid that someone would break in.

Jianqiu did as she was told, then picked up the teapot and poured several cups of tea to rinse the teacup until the cup was filled with the aroma of tea leaves.

The queen regained her usual dignity, picked up a fruit gracefully and looked at it for a while before she spoke: "No one is allowed to tell anyone about what happened today, otherwise neither you nor I will survive."

Jian Qiu bowed and said, "I will definitely remember that no one else will know about this except you and me."

The queen suddenly smiled complacently, looked at her sister's clothes on the table, reached out to take them and spread them on her legs, rubbing the satin lightly with her fingertips, and whispered:

"Sister, you are really my good sister. Because of you, I knew what Wu Shi San was and learned how to make this medicine. I didn't expect that this medicine would come in handy again today. Wu Shi San is colorless and has a light taste. People who are not proficient in medicinal materials cannot smell it."

After she finished speaking, she picked up her usual teacup and took a sip, recalling that Xia Dongchun had come to Jingren Palace early this morning, and the Queen had asked Jianqiu to invite her in to drink a cup of medicated tea. Soon the other concubines also arrived, and the medicine had begun to take effect.

After taking this medicine, people's temperament is likely to become irritable, uncontrollable, and prone to quarrels with others. If used too much, hallucinations will occur. Naturally, the queen only used a little bit to make Xia Dongchun unable to control his emotions.

Thinking of this, her pupils slightly dilated as she looked at Jianqiu, and she seemed to be talking to herself:

"Xia Dongchun is so stupid. I'm afraid she won't know until she dies that the baby in her belly died from Wu Shi San."

Jianqiu stepped forward, grovelling, and said with a raised eyebrow: "Thanks to the proper arrangement by the queen, otherwise, if it were another imperial physician, he might not be willing to work for us. If it weren't for him, the medicine in Xia Dongchun's body might have been discovered."

The Queen's eyes suddenly became as sharp as a knife, staring at Jianqiu, as if she could see through her. "Zhang Mi is just a small imperial physician. His son wants to marry my daughter, Ulanara, and he will have to pay a little. If he doesn't work more diligently, how can I agree to Yu'er marrying him?"

The Queen said this, but she was not confident in her heart, because Yu'er and Zhang Lin were already married. She continued:

"Whether it's because Yu'er didn't love herself and brought shame to the Ulanara clan, or because Zhang Lin was too cunning and coaxed and deceived Yu'er, this matter has now become a hot topic. If Yu'er doesn't marry her, which noble family will be willing to marry such a broken woman in the future? I suppressed the father and son of the Zhang family so that she would have an easier time if she married him."

Jianqiu nodded in agreement, her mouth seemed to be motionless, but the sound came out. "Yes, the Ulanara clan now relies entirely on the planning and arrangements of the queen. The queen has taken Zhang Mi under her wing, so the Zhang family dare not treat Miss Yu badly. The queen really has good intentions!"

The queen snorted, with a bit of disdain in her eyes, "From childhood to adulthood, everyone in the family has doted on my sister. My sister is of nobler birth than me, more beautiful than me, and more talented and virtuous than me. Everyone thinks that my sister can lead the Ulanara clan to rise to prominence, but they are all wrong! Now only I am their greatest reliance.

At that time, I had just married the emperor, who was still a prince, and my sister dressed very elegantly and beautifully, saying that she came to see me, so naturally the emperor fell in love with her.

I know this was arranged by my family. They thought I was a concubine's daughter and, seeing that the emperor at the time was very likely to become the new emperor, they pushed my sister out, thinking that I was not capable of the responsibility.

In the eyes of the emperor, my sister is better than me in every way, haha! My sister is good at everything, she can do everything, but she can't live, what a pity! They all calculated wrong, only I am the one who laughs last! It can only be me!"

When she spoke of the latter part, the queen's face turned red, her eyes became vicious, and her voice became sharp, as if something was about to explode.

Jianqiu was not afraid, her eyes were full of heartache.

Having followed the Queen all the way, she was the only one who knew best how deeply the Queen loved the Emperor. For the sake of the Emperor and the glory of the Ulanara family, the Queen had to learn to be a virtuous woman, put aside her own emotions and desires, and manage the harem for the Emperor. Only she knew how tired the Queen was after persisting for so many years.

So as long as the queen said something, no matter whether it was good or bad, Jianqiu would do it for her without hesitation.

Jian Qiu said with hatred, "The only person in this world who can be with the emperor till the end is the Empress. The former Concubine Hua, now the Concubine Wan, is just a flash in the pan! They are nothing in front of the Empress!"

The queen gradually returned to her usual self, her mood became much calmer, she squinted at the flowers on the table and said:

"Go and deliver some gifts to Suiyuxuan. Concubine Wan's pregnancy is inseparable from my help. She is a smart woman and will understand my intentions when she sees the gifts."

In Yikun Palace, Concubine Hua had already eaten a plate of pickles. Songzhi came in and saw Concubine Hua torturing herself like this. She cried and asked the servants to take the plate away.

"My lady, these pickles hurt your stomach, you can't eat them anymore!"

Concubine Hua pushed her away and began to dry heave. "I'm vomiting. Look, I can vomit. Does this mean I'm pregnant? Songzhi, go ask Imperial Doctor Jiang to feel my pulse!"

Songzhi and Zhou Ninghai exchanged glances and hurried forward to support the queen. Songzhi cried distressedly and comforted her, "Queen, you are tired."

Hua Fei suddenly came to her senses and realized that, yes, she just vomited and she was not pregnant.

No, everyone can get pregnant, including her. After thinking for a while, she asked Zhou Ninghai to tell her brother to find a doctor outside to see her.

The emperor and the empress dowager agreed after knowing about it, but the doctor outside had already been bribed by the empress dowager.

The doctor comforted Hua Fei with a few words, saying that she could still get pregnant. Hua Fei was very happy and rewarded the doctor with a plate of silver ingots on the spot.
