After Huanbi was reborn, she became the prince's favorite
Chapter 69: 9 State Qingyan Provokes Trouble
As the night deepened, the dormitory of Bitong Academy was still relatively cool. Occasionally, a few gusts of wind blew in through the window screens, adding a touch of comfort and coolness.
Zhen Huan called Huanbi in, gave her two sets of clothes, and some jewelry, saying:
"Prince Guo will also be at the luncheon tomorrow, so you should dress up nicely. These two pieces of light pink brocade are both elegant and modest, and you can give one to Liu Zhu later."
If Huanbi was a little worried in the past about whether the young lady would develop feelings for the prince, now she is completely relieved.
"Thank you for your thoughtfulness, my lady. I don't know how to repay you."
Huanbi was grateful to Zhen Huan from the bottom of her heart. In the past few days, the young lady was feeling uncomfortable due to pregnancy, and could not eat or sleep well. The emperor could not come to see her, and Concubine Hua was always keeping an eye on them. The young lady had a hard time, but she still thought about her feelings. She really treated herself as her own sister.
Zhen Huan seemed to be able to guess her thoughts and smiled faintly, "In this palace, the only one who has a blood relationship with me is you, besides the child in my belly.
I know you've lived a tolerant life in the past, and I may not be able to help you with other things, but when it comes to your lifelong event, as your eldest sister, I will do my best to do everything I can for you.
Huanbi, although Yurao is the one closest to me, it is you who has been through all the ups and downs with me in this life. In my heart, you are no less important than Yurao.
Now that I have entered the palace, although the emperor dotes on me, he may not be very sincere to me. I only hope that you and Yu Rao can find someone who shares the same mind, support each other, and live in love with him.
This is not only the hope of me as your eldest sister, but also my blessing to you.
The prince is a romantic and talented man, but he never oversteps the boundaries. This is why he is the dream lover of many women in the capital, which shows how noble his character is.
When you two get to know each other better and your friendship deepens, I will ask the Emperor to marry you to the prince."
After Zhen Huan finished speaking, she looked up at Huanbi quietly, but unexpectedly, Huanbi was already in tears.
She gently hugged Zhen Huan and was so moved that she sobbed.
"Eldest sister is so concerned about Huanbi, Huanbi doesn't know how to express this gratitude. Huanbi has decided that until these things are settled, Huanbi must stay by your side."
Zhen Huan smiled and patted her on the back, then asked:
"If these things never end, will you let the prince wait for you forever?
Silly girl, I still have Jinxi and Liuzhu to deal with. If you waste your whole life on me, how can the prince forgive me? I'm afraid even the emperor won't allow Prince Guo to remain single forever."
Huanbi was amused by her, wiped away her tears and replied: "I am relieved about Liuzhu and the others, but Huanbi grew up with my elder sister. If I can't accompany my elder sister to finish these hard days, I will not be at ease even if I get married."
Seeing how determined she was, Zhen Huan pretended to agree and didn't mention the matter again.
"Okay, it's getting late, go and have some rest. If you cry your eyes out, won't it be embarrassing to see the prince tomorrow?"
Huanbi thought about it and agreed, so she took her clothes and packed them up.
The next morning, after breakfast, all the palaces began to get busy. Concubine Hua not only dressed gorgeously and elegantly herself, but also gave Songzhi several sets of gorgeous clothes so that she could choose the best one to wear.
Songzhi looked at herself in the mirror, who was completely different from the past, and was happy and afraid, "My queen, will this make the emperor unhappy?"
Hua Fei rolled her eyes in anger.
"If I tell you to wear it, then wear it. Being a human being is like making clothes. What's the fun if you can't do it with a bang?
You are the one who goes out from my Nianshilan Palace, so you must not lose face for me because of things like clothes and appearance.
The Queen has always been frugal, and as she grows older, no matter how she dresses up, she can no longer attract the Emperor's attention. Shen Meizhuang is no longer concerned about the Emperor, but is devoted to serving the Queen Mother, so she is dignified and simple. As for Zhen Huan, because she is pregnant, I heard that she has been looking very bad recently and has lost a lot of weight.
Others don't have the ability to seduce the emperor. If you don't dress up quickly and catch the emperor's eyes and heart now, will you wait until the emperor finds you boring and forgets about you before you dress up in red and green?"
Songzhi was completely convinced by Concubine Hua's grand speech. It would be more accurate to say that it was suppression rather than persuasion. The Empress had spent so much time and effort on her talk, so how could she dare to say no?
"Yes, I understand. I will do whatever you say."
When the sun was high overhead, the concubines came to Jiuzhou Qingyan one by one, and the princes had already sat down in order.
When Huanbi supported Zhen Huan and just walked to the door, she saw Prince Guo who was chatting happily with the princes. She watched from afar, supporting the young lady with her left hand and touching the tassels on her bun with her right hand.
I wonder what the prince would think of me when I see myself dressed like a little girl? Just thinking about it makes her blush.
Entering the main hall, Zhen Huan took a seat according to her rank. She had just chatted with Mei Zhuang and Ling Rong for a few words when the Emperor and Empress arrived.
The emperor said a few words of blessing, and the princes and concubines toasted in turn. Singing and dancing rang out in the center of the hall, creating a lively scene.
Prince Dun looked at the circle of concubines opposite him. There seemed to be one he had never seen before. He jokingly asked, "Has the emperor got another beauty?"
No other prince would dare to say this. Prince Dun relied on his noble birth and because the emperor had experienced nine sons competing for the throne, he was very kind to his surviving brothers. Therefore, he spoke rudely in front of the emperor many times. If it were not for the emperor's magnanimity, he would have lost his head countless times.
Zhen Huan looked at him and cursed him in her heart, "Stupid!"
Without waiting for the emperor to answer, Prince Dun continued, "The emperor's new favorite is a Han Chinese, right? She is beautiful, but she is not original and petty, unlike the bold and unrestrained Manchu women like me!"
Concubine Qi couldn't stand it anymore, so she raised her glass and said to Prince Dun: "So what if it's a good intention? It's not good to lose respect."
Prince Dun's wife coughed twice, signaling him to stop talking, and then he shut up.
At this time, Zhen Huan suddenly stood up and said to Song Zhi with a smile: "Sister, you are always good at speaking, but why did you remain silent today after what Prince Dun said? Could it be that you agree with the prince's opinion?"
Songzhi's name was suddenly called and she was obviously stunned for a moment. She looked at the emperor and then at Concubine Hua. Both of them looked unhappy.
She cleared her throat and said:
"Compared with the noble lady Wan, I feel ashamed. I know that my status is humble. It is only because the emperor values me that I am able to serve him. Therefore, as long as the emperor is happy, I don't care whether I am generous or stingy. I am very happy."
"No wonder the Emperor likes my sister so much. Just based on your clever words, I like you very much too.
"However, my sister is so good at understanding the emperor's intentions, why has she still been a concubine for so long? I think that with your talent, beauty and determination, you must be a noble or a concubine to live up to your reputation!"
After Zhen Huan finished speaking, she looked up and laughed.
Concubine Hua was very pleased to see Zhen Huan like this. It seemed that Concubine Cao's words that day were true. She cleared her throat and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Wan has been rude many times. Don't you care about it?"
The emperor put down his wine glass, narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked in disbelief, "Repeatedly? Do you mean more than once?"
