Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

Wu Jin set out from Yinyu Palace and went to Zichen Palace first. He pushed open the window of Emperor Chongzhao's bedroom, jumped in, climbed onto the emperor's bed, and stepped on him to wake him up.

Emperor Chongzhao opened his eyes in a daze.

A black cat sat upright on his chest, brushing its tail across his mouth and nose. When it saw that he had opened his eyes, it meowed softly and reservedly.

Emperor Chongzhao was bewildered: "Wu Jin? Why are you here? Didn't you change to sleeping at night and strolling during the day? Why did you change back to such a good habit?"

As he said this, he reached out and picked up the cat, ready to cuddle it on his pillow.

Wugin broke free and meowed again in annoyance.

Emperor Chongzhao finally reacted: "Are you hungry?"

Wu Jin meowed softly, then rubbed Emperor Chong Zhao's face with his head.

Emperor Chongzhao laughed and called Jianzhong, "Come in."

The young eunuch, who had just started his night duty a few days ago, was very conscientious and rushed in in a hurry: "What do you want, Your Majesty?"

"Wu Jin is hungry. Go get him some food. Oh, he only eats meat and fish, and can't have oil or salt. If you're not sure, go ask Lao Xia."

After Emperor Chongzhao gave detailed instructions, he pointed at Jianzhong and said to Wu Jin, "This is Jianzhong, he is also my man, you can go to dinner with him without worry.

"If you don't want to go back home after dinner, come find me again and sleep here, okay?"

Wu Jin meowed softly and long, then followed Jianzhong out happily.

After finishing his meal, Wu Jin stretched in the yard, then jumped onto a tree, and after three climbs and two leaps, he reached the roof.

Jianzhong watched it hop leisurely away from below, then turned happily back to his bedroom.

Sure enough, Emperor Chongzhao did not go to bed, but sat on the bed reading a book. When he saw him coming back, he threw away the book, looked at him and asked, "Where is the cat?"

Jianzhong smiled and replied, "He's full, happy, and running around. I saw him heading towards the East Palace. I guess he missed his old house and wanted to go back for a look."

Emperor Chongzhao smiled, lay down, and casually ordered: "Go and ask it tomorrow why it is so hungry that it comes to me for food in the middle of the night."

Jianzhong agreed, blew out the lights and went out without mentioning it again.

Wu Jin went around in a circle before arriving at Qinghui Pavilion.

The side hall was pitch dark and everyone was asleep.

There was still a light on in a room behind the main hall.

Wu Jin quietly went around and squatted at the door, eavesdropping.

"Second Miss, I was sent by the Master to serve you. My whole family is in the main room. I must listen to the Master and Concubine Rong.

“I suggest you listen to the eldest master instead of the second lady.

"After all, if you really do what the Second Madam said, you will not end up well, and it will also affect Concubine Rong and she will not end well either.

“His Majesty doesn’t know who you are yet, and neither does anyone in the palace know who you are.

"If you can take good care of Concubine Rong and wait for her to give birth smoothly, firstly, you will have done a great deed; secondly, people will not be wary of you anymore, and it will be easy for them to do the things that the Second Madam taught you to do.

"Don't think that Concubine Wang is easy to talk to. Concubine Rong didn't say it, but Mei Shumei Ran has already reminded you:

"In the whole palace, except for our Concubine Rong, Concubine Wang has never treated anyone kindly.

"What about Liu Shang? What about the Ministry of Internal Affairs? She has killed assassins with her own hands! You must not underestimate her!"

The voice of a little girl was well-reasoned and sincere.

Another young woman's voice rang out: "Okay, you mean well, I'll remember that."

The maid said in a worried voice: "Second Miss, you have just entered the palace and are unfamiliar with everything. No matter what happens, please hold off and take your time.

"Second Miss, things will turn out well if you take it slow."

The young woman remained steady: “Don’t worry.

"I just don't want to be randomly married off, and I entered the palace only to use my sister's help to find a better future for myself.

“I accept what my mother and aunt say, but that doesn’t mean I will rush to do it.

"There are few talented people in our family. My elder brother and younger brother are not very successful. They are the only ones who are successful. As my elder sister said today, being older is not necessarily better.

"Sister is already the backbone of our family. I will not destroy the Great Wall myself.

"Only if she is well can I be well too. If she is not well, not only me, but also my brothers, uncles, father, and even the side branches of the Mei family may not be well!

"——I understand these better than you."

The maid breathed a sigh of relief, but then she was puzzled: "Second Miss is so smart, why is she so stupid at home..."

The girl paused.

The young woman continued her words slowly and softly, "Now you are my maid, and we are tied together.

"When one prospers, all prosper; when one suffers, all suffer.

"It doesn't matter what I am like at home, you just need to see how I am now and how I will be in the future."

Wu Jin couldn't help but raised his paw to wash his face.

So unexpected!

But in this way, wouldn’t the thing that adults are most worried about not happen?

Yeah, good thing!

Wu Jin turned happily and leapt into the clouds.

But it didn't know that the conversation in the room continued after it left.

"Anxiang, you just said that Concubine Wang treats Concubine Rong the best and trusts her the most in the palace, is that right?"

"Yes, second lady."

"I just don't believe that she, a concubine who hasn't been favored for four years, can be pregnant with another concubine without any grudges..."

Wang Xifeng hadn't gone to bed yet. She was waiting for Wu Jin's reply.

Fortunately, it seems to be good news.

“Za Maobi, the master asked you to go and find out about Mei Ruoqin, but what are you doing looking at Mei Ruojin?!

"Mei Ruojin can love her however she wants, the worst that can happen is that I'll take her life.

"What you are concerned about is Mei Ruoqin's attitude! With such a big incident happening today, she will definitely not be able to sleep!"

Jin Ercai jumped up and down on the shelf, looking down on Wu Jin.

Wu Jin breathed at him, glared at it fiercely and said, "Meow!"

The lights in Mei Ruoqin's bedroom are off?

Wang Xifeng seemed to be thinking about something.

Given Mei Ruoqin's thoughtful personality, her words today could not be taken seriously, not to mention that she had gone to see Geng Ronghua after leaving her palace.

Geng Ronghua's good intentions in the morning were humiliated by her mother's behavior. After she had gone to the side hall, Mei Ruoqin should have comforted Geng Ronghua, and then -

Then she would definitely think about it over and over again.

How could he fall asleep so early?

unless……

Wang Xifeng's face darkened.

Unless she didn't take the snacks that Xiaoyuan sent in the morning seriously and gave them to the palace servants!

It seems that I have been too busy recently and neglected the time spent with Mei and Geng.

"That's all. Let's leave it at that for today. Tomorrow, Wu Jin will go to Qinghui Pavilion and take a look around."

Wang Xifeng said softly.

Jin Ercai tilted his head and said, "I can't hear anything even if I go there during the day!"

"Sometimes, your attitude towards Wu Jin is your attitude towards me."

Wang Xifeng spoke leisurely, and added, "Qinghui Pavilion is not only the main hall, but also the side halls."

You have to look at them carefully.
