The Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua: I Want to Be the Queen

"The Empress Dowager has lost her virtues and is unworthy of being a mother to the country. Ulanara Yixiu is vicious and evil. She will be moved out of the cold palace from today and handed over to the clan affairs office to be demoted to a commoner.

"Hua Fei is a woman of great virtue, gentleness and kindness, and she has won my heart. She has devoted herself to educating the prince and has made outstanding contributions. I hereby promote her to the rank of Imperial Concubine and grant her the power to assist in the management of the six palaces. I hope she can set an example for all the concubines in the harem."

These two imperial edicts were like a thunderclap, causing an uproar in the palace.

The dethronement of the Empress is a foregone conclusion, and now the Emperor has demoted Yixiu to a commoner. There is no chance or possibility of a reversal at all!

Hua Fei, relying on her virtue and contribution to educating the prince, became a noble concubine and was given the power to manage the six palaces.

This is huge good news for me. After all, I am now the highest-ranking concubine in the harem!

But I still feel it’s not enough!

Because the Third Prince is still alive, and I can’t just be the only one in power, otherwise I’ll be the one who dies an ugly death!

So when the emperor came to my place, I prepared a table full of delicious dishes for him. In the middle was the emperor's favorite roasted lamb, and the dishes placed in other places were all vegetarian dishes that were very light in appetite!

After the emperor sat down, I gently picked up the mutton for him and said with a smile:

"Your Majesty, your favorite roasted lamb!"

"Why don't you call me Shiro today?"

After hearing the emperor's words, I looked at him with resentment and said:

"I am terrified. Your Majesty has placed me in such a high position. My every word and action is in the eyes of everyone. If I am not careful, it will be disrespectful to the royal family. I don't want to lose the right to accompany Your Majesty because of this. Your Majesty knows that I don't want these powerful positions. I just want to accompany Your Majesty."

After hearing this, the Emperor smiled and said, "I have wronged you, so it is only right that I make it up to you! Moreover, every time I said I wanted to reward you, you declined. If you hadn't brought the Fourth Prince to save me this time, I wouldn't know where I would be! Isn't this worthy of my reward? Could it be that Shi Lan wanted me to be unkind and unjust?"

"I understand your Majesty's intention, so let's not talk about it! Silang, eat the mutton first!"

After hearing what I said, the emperor smiled, and then started eating the mutton with a satisfied look on his face!

But after finishing the mutton, the emperor glanced at the table, then smiled and said to me:

"Shilan, why are the dishes so uniform today, just to highlight this roasted lamb?"

When I saw that the emperor was paying attention to the food, I immediately said with a smile:

"Don't be anxious, Shiro. There are still vegetables!"

I clapped my hands, and the kitchen brought out a few more meat dishes and placed them next to the roasted lamb.

I smiled and said to the Emperor:

"Your Majesty, look, four portions are just right, not too many, not too few, and all four corners are complete. And now your attention is not only on the mutton, right?"

After I finished speaking, the emperor smiled, pointed at me and said:

"You, you are just too smart!"

Then he took a bite of duck meat, and then tentatively said to me:

"There are indeed several old people from the royal palace in this palace. Concubine Duan has the longest seniority and is with Princess Wen Yi. She is also old and has been ill for many years. Giving her a rank as a consolation will not help her achieve anything. What do you think, my beloved concubine?"
