Zhen Huan was still completely unaware of this. She was still touching the hairpin on her head with a shy smile and said:

"I specially asked a craftsman from the Imperial Household Department to make this. It is a blessing for me and this hairpin that the emperor finds it beautiful!"

After hearing this, the emperor was sure that it was not given by someone else. Unlike the last time when the birthday horoscope was used to frame someone, it was Zhen Huan herself who admitted that she had someone do it!

At this time, the emperor praised expressionlessly:

"You are very good!"

Even at this time, Zhen Huan was still thinking that she would be promoted immediately!

So he completely ignored the emperor's expression and tone at the moment, and kept showing his other sincerity to the emperor!

He didn't even notice Su Peisheng's anxious look at him!

At this time, Cui Jinxi kept her head down, but as she listened to Zhen Huan's words, she did not think that the emperor's mind had changed, so she did not see Su Peisheng's eyes!

Zhen Huan still smiled and said to the emperor:

"Your Majesty, the piece you played last time, Chang Xiang Si, is indeed a good zither. I have played it several times in the past few days and even learned a piece of music. I plan to play and sing it for Your Majesty. Would Your Majesty be willing to listen?"

When hearing this, the emperor immediately thought of the time when I wore a hairpin and played the piano for him in my palace. However, it is impossible for ordinary people to know what happens in my palace. Even up to now, only the emperor and I know these things!

But at this time, Zhen Huan knew that she should still wear Queen Chun Yuan's favorite hairpin and play the piano to win favor. The emperor then thought of what I told him before, that someone wanted to replace Queen Chun Yuan!

Then the emperor said angrily:

"How dare you! Do you know what you are doing now?"

After hearing the emperor's words, Zhen Huan immediately knelt down in fear, then admitted her mistake and said:

"Your Majesty, rest your anger."

"Calm down? How can I calm down after what you are doing now? Do you know what the hairpin on your head is?"

"And your clothes and your zither, do you think you can replace Queen Chunyuan like this?"

After hearing this, Zhen Huan began to take off her clothes and hairpins anxiously, but the more anxious she was, the slower her movements became!

The clothes were not so easy to take off, and the hairpins were even harder to take off because they were tangled up in the air!

When the Emperor saw this, he thought that Zhen Huan herself was unwilling to take it off, so he pulled it off himself, threw it aside and said:

"You actually want to wear this hairpin and parade around in public. It's already a blessing for you to be able to stay by my side because of Chun Yuan. Now you want to use Chun Yuan to rise to higher positions? What wishful thinking!"

Zhen Huan's self-esteem at this moment was shattered by the emperor's words and actions!

Zhen Huan looked at the emperor with tears in her eyes and said:

"Your Majesty, please calm down. I have no intention of offending Queen Chunyuan, but this hairpin and the dress are purely coincidental. I was careless. Your Majesty, please calm down!"

"But Your Majesty, have you really only regarded me as the shadow of Queen Chunyuan to comfort yourself from the beginning?"

After hearing this, the emperor snorted coldly and said:

"You are blessed to be like her!"

Zhen Huan was disheartened at this time. In this life, Zhen Huan did not have a pure love relationship with the emperor, nor did she have the emperor's favor of holding her in the palm of his hand. So in this life, Zhen Huan did not question the emperor, but gave up directly!
