An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan

"How is Concubine Hua doing?"

In the Qinzheng Hall, Yongzheng did not review the memorials from the court, but asked the Queen about Concubine Hua's current health condition.

"Your Majesty, Imperial Doctor Zhang has already written a prescription and asked someone to get the medicine. I went to see Concubine Hua in person and saw that she had taken the medicine and is now sleeping peacefully."

The Queen looked virtuous and kind, and there was no sign that she was fighting with Concubine Hua in private. At this time, she put on a proper attitude and persuaded the Emperor not to worry too much about Concubine Hua.

"After all, the Nian family made great contributions to my ascension to the throne, and Concubine Hua has been by my side since I was in the Qiandi Palace..."

As he said this, Yongzheng seemed to recall the bright and beautiful appearance of Concubine Hua when she had just married into the palace, and his guilt became even stronger.

"Yes……"

Seeing the emperor acting like a love saint, the queen's mouth twitched slightly, then she lowered her head and spoke in a respectful tone.

"Forget it. I took this opportunity to bring you to the Old Summer Palace to escape the summer heat. I wanted to take some time off from my busy schedule. Although you are the master of the six palaces, you were not able to take any time off due to your health problems. That's why I asked Concubine Hua to help you share your worries. But Concubine Hua is not feeling well now. Queen, you have to work harder!"

Yongzheng tapped his fingers on the table and immediately decided to restore some of the queen's rights.

"what?"

The queen did not expect that Yongzheng would suddenly say such words to her. After hearing this, she was visibly stunned.

Listening to the emperor's tone, the queen felt that he must be feeling "guilty" towards Concubine Hua again.

She was just wondering what the emperor was going to do to make up for it this time, but the emperor suddenly asked her to take charge?

Yongzheng's sudden counterattack hit Concubine Hua who was not present, and also made the Queen feel a sense of unreality as if in a dream.

"what happened?"

Yongzheng ignored the Queen's surprise and said calmly, "Hua Fei is not young anymore. Since you are not in good health now, you should take good care of yourself. The Queen is the head of the six palaces. These are your responsibilities. Besides, Qi Fei and others can help you with the work. I think you won't be overwhelmed."

"Your Majesty is right. This is originally the responsibility of this concubine."

Although she was confused and at a loss for a moment, the queen quickly adjusted herself and assured the emperor with a smile, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will make all the arrangements for you sisters and ensure that Your Majesty has no worries in the Old Summer Palace."

In fact, although what the emperor said before was somewhat unexpected, the meaning revealed in it was very clear.

Since he brought everyone out to escape the summer heat and have fun, he naturally didn't want to worry about trivial matters.

As for Concubine Hua, although she felt guilty, Yongzheng understood the crux of the problem.

Even if he wants to make compensation, he will start from other aspects.

However, as an emperor, he would not show any mercy when it came to those who deserved to be punished.

After the queen understood the emperor's intention, she instantly knew how to respond to him in order to satisfy Yongzheng.

"Well, I know the Queen's ability, so you can go back first."

Yongzheng nodded, indicating that the queen could leave.

After the Queen left, Yongzheng called Su Peisheng and asked him to call Doctor Zhang over, as he had something to ask him.

Su Peisheng naturally followed the emperor's orders unconditionally.

Soon, Doctor Zhang was brought before Emperor Yongzheng.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"

Being suddenly called by the Emperor, Doctor Zhang felt a little uneasy. He stumbled while performing the ceremony and almost made a mistake.

"Don't be nervous, I just have something to ask you."

Yongzheng waved his hand at Doctor Zhang, motioning him to stand up and speak, and then said, "When you examined Concubine Hua's pulse earlier, did you find anything wrong?"

"Your Majesty, just as I told you before, the reason why Concubine Hua is feeling unwell this time is simply because of improper diet, which has disrupted the balance between the spleen and stomach, resulting in such symptoms. According to my diagnosis and treatment, I have already prescribed the corresponding medicine. You just need to take the medicine on time and recuperate properly, and there will be no serious problem."

Seeing that Yongzheng was still asking him about Concubine Hua, Doctor Zhang answered more cautiously, but he repeated the same excuse he had made before.

"You should understand that this is not what I want to ask."

Yongzheng looked at Doctor Zhang deeply, then said, "The Huan Yi Xiang is a replica of an ancient recipe, which is precious and rare. It has always been prepared by someone in your Imperial Hospital. Has anything gone wrong?"

Back then, he ascended the throne successfully with the assistance of Nian Gengyao and Longkodo.

The relationship between Yongzheng and Longkodo originated from the blood relationship between him and his adoptive mother, Empress Xiaoyiren. As for the contacts between him and the Nian family, it was because Concubine Hua married into Prince Yong's mansion and became a concubine, which made Nian Gengyao and him become in-laws.

Because of this, although Yongzheng relied on these two important ministers on the surface, he was also extremely wary of them in his heart.

Just like after he ascended the throne, even though he held a beauty contest, he did not allow the daughter of the Tonggiya clan to enter the palace. In order to ensure the stability of his imperial power, Yongzheng would never allow a child with Aisin-Gioro and royal blood to be born.

This is also why after he and the Queen Mother made a plan, he distributed Huan Yi Xiang to Concubine Hua, with the aim of eliminating all crises from the root.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty. These matters are handled by me and the judge personally. There will be absolutely no accidents!"

What you fear is bound to come true. Even when he was summoned by Su Peisheng, Zhang Tai was still worried that Yongzheng was going to ask about the situation with Concubine Hua. Now that he saw the other party mention Huan Yixiang, he broke out in a cold sweat and quickly assured the emperor that there was no deviation in the whole process.

"That's good."

Yongzheng nodded and said, "Although we are now in the Old Summer Palace, the temporary palace is not as big as the Forbidden City, but Concubine Hua is used to using Huan Yi incense. If she stops using it suddenly, she will probably feel uncomfortable. You should hurry up and make some more."

This Huan Yi Xiang was originally a miraculous recipe that Emperor Yongzheng ordered people to search for. If it was used for a long time, it would be difficult for women to get pregnant, and even if they were pregnant, they would easily have miscarriage.

This method was planned by Yongzheng in order to prevent accidents. He also consulted many doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau at that time. After learning that this incense might have unknown side effects, he went through a struggle between his conscience and his own desires, and finally chose to use it on Concubine Hua. He was destined not to turn back on this matter.

Just as the Empress Dowager had asked before, Yongzheng still said that everything was the same as before.

Concubine Hua is in poor health now. Although the imperial physician said that this was an accident, Yongzheng was also worried that this was one of the side effects of Huan Yi Xiang.

Considering that he had not given this spice to Concubine Hua for some time, Yongzheng did not hesitate even though he knew it might be like drinking poison to quench thirst.
