Zhen Huan was immersed in the conversation with Yongzheng, her attention was all on the dialogue between the two parties, and naturally she had no time to pay attention to anything else.

Although An Lingrong was accompanying him, she was also keeping an eye on the movements everywhere so that she could react in the first place.

Therefore, when Concubine Hua's procession entered the Imperial Garden, An Lingrong and Su Peisheng were the first to notice this sudden change.

It seems that Concubine Hua must have received the news and knew that the emperor was chatting with the beauty in the imperial garden, so she couldn't sit still!

An Lingrong narrowed her eyes, knowing that something exciting was about to happen.

Because Yongzheng was here, she was not worried that Concubine Hua's anger would affect herself and Zhen Huan.

No matter how much Yongzheng valued Hua Fei, as an emperor, he would never allow Hua Fei to attack his other two concubines in front of him.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Hua is here!"

At the same time, after Su Peisheng confirmed that it was Concubine Hua who had arrived, he immediately reminded Yongzheng who was reciting poems with Zhen Huan.

Su Peisheng looked a little worried, and he obviously felt that Concubine Hua had come with ill intentions.

Everyone in the palace was well aware of Concubine Hua's temper. As the emperor's trusted eunuch, Su Peisheng had dealt with her before. He knew that this empress was very good at being jealous, and her coming this time would definitely cause some disturbances again!

"Why is Concubine Hua here?"

After hearing Su Peisheng's words, Yongzheng's attention returned to reality from his and Zhen Huan's small world.

Yongzheng frowned and felt a little displeased at the sudden arrival of Concubine Hua.

He suppressed his anger and led his men out of Yikun Palace because he didn't want to see Concubine Hua's arrogant attitude again.

As a result, as soon as he arrived at the Imperial Garden, Concubine Hua rushed over without stopping. It can be seen that Concubine Hua knew his whereabouts very well!

When he thought of this, Yongzheng felt a strange feeling in his heart.

"I don't know. Maybe your Majesty thought the weather was nice and wanted to go out for a walk!"

Su Peisheng always changes his attitude according to the situation, and at this moment he also saw the dissatisfaction hidden in the emperor's tone, but he still helped to say some polite words.

Even if Concubine Hua really bribed people around Yongzheng to find out the emperor's whereabouts, and Yongzheng was suspicious of this, Su Peisheng had to consider Yongzheng's face. After all, there were still two maids, Zhen Huan and An Lingrong, present!

"Forget it, let Concubine Hua come over."

Yongzheng didn't really want Su Peisheng to answer his questions, he just needed a step to step down.

It would be inappropriate to ask Zhen Huan and An Lingrong this question, so the only one left would be Su Peisheng.

"Whoo!"

Su Peisheng was waiting for the emperor to say this. Now with Yongzheng's approval, he also knew how to deal with Concubine Hua, so he nodded, bowed, and slowly took his leave. After leaving the pavilion, he trotted all the way to greet Concubine Hua.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Hua has arrived. May I and Sister An leave?"

Zhen Huan also noticed Hua Fei's arrival from the previous conversation between Yongzheng and Su Peisheng. At this time, when she saw the huge procession of imperial guards approaching, she asked Yongzheng a question.

"You don't want to see Concubine Hua?"

Yongzheng looked at Zhen Huan. Although he knew that Zhen Huan and the others were afraid of Concubine Hua, or that there were few people in the entire palace who could like Concubine Hua, he wanted to tease Zhen Huan in his heart, so he made a joke on purpose.

"This, the Empress Hua is so beautiful and graceful, and I am just a weakling, not even one ten-thousandth as good as the Empress Hua. I am really ashamed of myself!"

Zhen Huan was speechless for a moment because of Yongzheng's words, and then under An Lingrong's suggestion, she gave an answer that could be called "perfect".

"You are very talented and have a natural beauty. Why are you so unconfident?"

Yongzheng liked Zhen Huan because she looked similar to Queen Chunyuan. However, an unintentional chat today made Yongzheng discover that Zhen Huan's talent was also outstanding among the women in the harem.

For Yongzheng, this was like discovering an unknown treasure, which naturally made him very happy.

Similarly, Yongzheng would certainly not tolerate others questioning the things he liked.

After saying this to Zhen Huan, Yongzheng saw that she and An Lingrong were frowning and worried. After thinking for a while, he said, "You don't have to worry so much. I'm here. Concubine Hua won't embarrass you!"

The reason why Yongzheng said this was that he felt that Concubine Hua's aggressive character had already penetrated into the hearts of everyone in the harem. Zhen Huan and An Lingrong were fine at first, but after learning that Concubine Hua had come to the Imperial Garden, they became nervous and unnatural. The reason behind this could not be wrong.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhen Huan had already thought about retreating and only wanted to get the emperor's consent, so she quickly pulled An Lingrong away from this place of trouble.

However, the emperor had no intention of letting them go. Knowing that she could not disobey Yongzheng, Zhen Huan had no choice but to thank him for his grace.

Then, she gave An Lingrong a look of extreme helplessness.

An Lingrong naturally felt what Zhen Huan wanted to convey, so she shook her head slightly at her, signaling Zhen Huan to stay calm.

In fact, An Lingrong was not worried that she and Zhen Huan would become innocent victims of Concubine Hua's misfortune.

No matter what, Yongzheng is sitting here!

Even if Concubine Hua is so crazy that she doesn't care about the emperor's thoughts, it depends on whether Yongzheng can continue to tolerate her.

While the two were having a secret interaction, Hua Fei also brought Song Zhi and Zhou Ninghai, under the guidance of Su Peisheng, to the pavilion where Yongzheng and others were.

"Your Majesty, I was just thinking of going out for a walk, but I didn't expect you to be in the Imperial Garden. What a coincidence!"

Facing the emperor before the New Year, Concubine Hua did not dare to be too presumptuous. She observed all the necessary etiquette and her tone was full of surprise, as if she had really met the emperor by chance.

"Well, I feel a little bored. I don't want to go back to the Yangxin Palace to review memorials, so I'm going to take a walk in the Imperial Garden."

Yongzheng then explained and asked Hua Fei, "Why, did you also become bad in Yikun Palace?"

"No, I came here because I thought about how the emperor works hard for the country every day and I had no appetite before, so I lost my appetite. That's why I wanted to go out for a walk."

After Hua Fei finished speaking, a look of worry immediately appeared on her face, as if she was very worried about Yongzheng's health.

However, when An Lingrong heard this, she felt that Concubine Hua was indeed a person who would not lie.

Although this reason seems to be remarkable at first glance and does not seem to make people feel that there is anything wrong with it, on the contrary, one can also appreciate Hua Fei's love and concern for Yongzheng.

But if you think about it carefully, Hua Fei's words are full of loopholes.

First, she said that she was worried about the emperor, who couldn't eat, and she also lost her appetite, so she planned to take a stroll in the Imperial Garden.

So isn't this action intended to stimulate one's appetite?

With this behavior, was he worried about the emperor or was he worried about not being able to eat?

Besides, if she really wanted to stimulate her appetite through exercise like walking, she would definitely not have come all the way here riding on the concubine's chariot!
