"Sister, what's wrong with you?"

An Lingrong had just made a casual joke, but she hadn't expected that Zhen Huan's face would turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye as soon as she finished speaking.

This reaction was undoubtedly an attempt to cover up something, and it made An Lingrong feel a little confused.

Zhen Huan is not the kind of person who shows her emotions. She has always been smooth-talking in front of others. Even in front of herself and Shen Meiyu, she is very concerned about her image. Why would she react like this when she was just being joked by herself?

"nothing……"

In response to An Lingrong's question, Zhen Huan dodged her gaze but did not give a direct answer. Instead, she shook her head to indicate that she was fine.

But with the previous "doubts" in place, even if Zhen Huan denied it, An Lingrong's doubts would not be easily dispelled.

But since Zhen Huan was unwilling to tell her, there was no need for An Lingrong to dig into the matter. She just smiled and nodded, then started talking to Zhen Huan about other things as if nothing had happened.

"By the way, has the Fourth Prince come to see you before?"

Zhen Huan was indeed feeling uneasy now. Seeing that An Lingrong looked normal, she felt a little uncomfortable, so she changed the topic to the Fourth Prince Hongli.

"Yes." An Lingrong followed Zhen Huan's words and briefly mentioned that the Fourth Prince had come to pay his respects to her and Shen Meiyu.

"It is as expected." Zhen Huan put down the white porcelain plum blossom cup in her hand, sighed, and said, "I was outside the Qinzheng Palace at the time, and I saw him from a distance. He recognized me as 'Wan Guiren' at a glance. At first, I thought this child was really pitiful, but after listening to Jin Xi's explanation, I realized that there were many unspeakable things in it..."

At that time, Zhen Huan asked Cui Jinxi why it was so difficult for the Fourth Prince to even meet Yongzheng. Cui Jinxi told her everything she knew and explained the Fourth Prince Hongli's background.

After learning the reason why the emperor hated his son, Zhen Huan felt relieved, but her sympathy for the Fourth Prince did not diminish.

In fact, in Zhen Huan's heart, she felt that Yongzheng was a little too unkind in this regard.

The emperor's immoral behavior after drinking was his own fault. Even if he was framed by the Eighth Prince and others, what does this have to do with the Fourth Prince?

Yongzheng simply hated the palace maid Li, who came from a humble background. At the same time, he "hated everyone because of him", and he also disliked the Fourth Prince.

But what is the child's fault?

It's a pity that Zhen Huan only thought about these words in her heart and she definitely didn't dare to say them out loud in front of the emperor.

In the past few days, Zhen Huan was busy appeasing the Emperor, so naturally she had no time to care about the Fourth Prince.

Later I heard that the Fourth Prince actually went to Fanyin Pavilion to find An Lingrong and Shen Meizhuang.

Upon learning about this, Zhen Huan had no reaction, but Huanbi beside her felt a little indignant for her.

Now, looking at Zhen Huan and An Lingrong talking and laughing there, Huanbi curled the corners of her mouth slightly, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

An Lingrong also understood Huanbi's temper very well, and knew that she always had a bit of "looking down on everyone" in her heart.

Therefore, after noticing the slight change in Huanbi's expression, An Lingrong said nothing, but the smile on her face became more meaningful.

Zhen Huan is a person with a meticulous mind. She and An Lingrong seem to be chatting, but in fact they are talking about the undercurrents among the concubines.

So, when Zhen Huan saw the change in An Lingrong's smile, her eyelids twitched slightly and she almost subconsciously turned her head to look to the side.

Very good, just as I thought, Huanbi has started to have her old problems again!

"Huanbi."

Zhen Huan suppressed her helplessness and greeted Huanbi instead.

"My lord, I am here, but I don't know what you want me to do?"

When Huanbi heard Zhen Huan suddenly call her name, her heart skipped a beat. She quickly adjusted her state and waited for Zhen Huan's next instruction.

"I suddenly remembered that I didn't take something. Please go back and get it."

Zhen Huan gave Huanbi a light instruction and motioned her to leave quickly.

But Huanbi hadn't reacted yet and asked, "My lady, are you talking about the purse you embroidered a few days ago?"

"That's right!"

Zhen Huan knew that Huanbi must have failed to control her facial expression again, causing An Lingrong to notice something, so she wanted to find an excuse to get rid of her quickly. However, Huanbi kept asking questions here, which immediately made her a little annoyed.

"Sister is actually also trying to learn needlework?"

An Lingrong said to Zhen Huan, "It is midsummer now, there are many insects and ants, and we are in a garden with dense vegetation. I have sewn a purse, but would you like to use it as a scent bag for the emperor?"

"You are the only one who has so many clever ideas!"

Zhen Huan rolled her eyes at her and denied it directly, "I didn't prepare it for the emperor. Besides, the emperor has so many people serving him, how could he be short of a sachet like mine? I prepared it for some people, but she doesn't know it yet!"

The “some people” who were named touched their noses and then started laughing.

"I know you have a wonderful knitting skill. It would be a shame for me to do this in front of you, so I would like to ask for your guidance."

Zhen Huan smiled and said, "Sister, you won't be stingy with your advice, right?"

"how could be."

An Lingrong shook her head and followed Zhen Huan down the stairs.

……

"Humph! It's just a fluke that you got a dragon fetus. Why are you so proud?"

On the way back to get the purse as ordered by Zhen Huan, Huanbi felt more and more aggrieved the more she thought about it.

She clearly didn't say anything, she just thought about it in her mind, but she was still discovered!

And even if she was discovered, Zhen Huan had no intention of defending herself. Instead, she frequently showed her kindness to An Lingrong.

This reaction not only further intensified Huanbi's rebelliousness, but also made her even more angry.

"oops!"

Because she was worried, Huanbi didn't pay much attention to the road. Suddenly, she stumbled and bumped into someone who was also running hurriedly.

Because the other party did not notice Huanbi at the first time, he naturally had no time to dodge and could only allow her to hit him heavily.

Then, Huanbi was knocked to the ground and became furious. She wanted to see who was the blind person who bumped into her.

But when she looked closely, Huanbi discovered that the person who bumped into her was actually A Jin, the attendant of Prince Guo!

"It's you!"

"It's you!"

The two looked at each other and spoke almost at the same time, saying exactly the same thing.

However, Huanbi was embarrassed and surprised, while Ajin's face was red and he looked very shy.

"Hey! I won't talk to you anymore!"

Huanbi didn't want to continue making a fool of herself, so she got up from the ground and left in a hurry without even having time to brush off the dust on her clothes.
