Chapter 38 Concubine Hua Understands Me Best

Nian Shilan smiled and raised her glass proudly, "My brother is serving the former dynasty, and I am serving the emperor wholeheartedly in the harem. That is natural."

Prince Guo also raised his glass to toast, "I wish my brother a long life of health and peace for the Qing Dynasty!"

The emperor teased him, saying that it was very rare that he was neither late nor absent from the banquet today.

[My wife's brother came here specifically to see his new sister-in-law today, so he can't skip the party or be late.]

[Don't worry, your trip today was not in vain. The emperor will take you to Yimei Garden to see your new sister-in-law later.]

New sister-in-law?

The emperor could not understand what Hua Fei meant by "his brother-in-law", nor did he understand what his new sister-in-law meant.

A cold light flashed in the queen's eyes:

Does this mean that Zhen Huan deserves the title of "sister-in-law"?

Not to mention that she is not favored now, what if she is favored in the future?

A concubine is a concubine, a queen is a queen, and she will always be a concubine who cannot hold her head up in front of me all her life!

Fortunately, there were no plum blossoms tonight, so the Queen and Nian Shilan could listen to the music and enjoy the dance in peace.

After several rounds of singing and dancing, some people left their seats to toast each other, while others took advantage of the chaos to leave the palace banquet.

Sun Miaoqing and Fang Jiachunyi usually sit at the last seat.

Fang Jia Chunyi is Chun Changzai who used to live in Suiyuxuan. Because Zhen Huan was infected with the plague, she moved to Yanxi Palace. She comes from a good family and has a lively personality.

How can the women in the harem be simple?

Sun Miaoqing didn't like her, always thinking that she was pretending to be innocent, but in fact she was a master of tea.

She's a top-notch scheming bitch.

If she was really simple, she would have died in two episodes like Xia Dongchun.

But she easily avoided the first round of palace fighting by saying that she was too young to serve the emperor in the emperor's bedchamber, making everyone ignore the existence of her opponent.

Later, seeing that Zhen Huan was favored, she immediately reported to the Queen and moved back to Suiyuxuan. She also said in front of the sensitive and inferior An Xiaoniao, "Sister Wan and I both love to be lively, so we naturally get along better."

Netizens also have double standards.

Similarly, the Emperor and Zhen Huan were alone in the room. When Huanbi entered the room holding lotus flowers, she was seen as a lowly maid with impure thoughts. When Fang Jiachun rushed in holding red plums, she was seen as naive and ignorant of worldly affairs.

It was such a simple Concubine Chun, who successfully attracted the emperor's attention and served him in bed with her words "Your Majesty, you have forgotten that I will be seventeen after the New Year."

Sun Miaoqing was very curious. If Zhen Green Tea knew that she was used as a ladder by Chun Green Tea to get to the top, what would she feel?

Not only that, she became even more direct later on, mentioning sex matters in front of Zhen Huan and An Xiaoniao. This is something that few ladies from wealthy families with strict feudal social classes would do, and even modern women would rarely tell others about their husbands' sex affairs in public.

But she refused to do so and even secretly said that Xiaoniao's embroidery was petty.

It’s a pity that she died early, otherwise it’s not certain whether the one who walked to the end with a smile would be Zhen Huan?

Sun Miaoqing did not bear grudge against her because she died early. After all, she pretended to be a foodie and could be won over with a few plates of snacks.

It's not a big deal.

According to the rules of the palace, ladies of different ranks would have different dishes in front of them.

At this moment, Sun Miaoqing's eyes were full of scheming. She was overwhelmed by the delicious dishes that were served one after another. Her thoughts were indeed a little impure——

She wants to be on top.

Because Sun Miaoqing, who only had one more title than her, had two more dishes than her, not to mention her sisters who were noble ladies, concubines, and imperial consorts.

Sun Miaoqing had something important to do tonight, and she glanced at Chun Changzai with disdain: You say Xiaoniao is petty, but the one who looks like she has never seen the world is truly petty.

She brought the extra dish to Chun Changzai and said, "Chun Er, I drank two extra glasses of wine and feel a little dizzy. If anyone asks, just say I can't hold my liquor and I'm going out for some fresh air and will be back soon."

"good."

Chun Changzai agreed straightforwardly, picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

Xin Changzai was always warm-hearted and curious about everything. After drinking a glass of wine with Cao Guiren, she turned around and didn't see Sun Miaoqing, so she asked casually, "Where is Gong Changzai?"

Chun Changzai chewed the fish in his mouth twice: What did Sister Gong say just now?

Oh, I remember now.

"She said she felt too depressed in the palace and wanted to vent her anger on someone. She will be back soon."

Xin Changzai: "..."

The maid Luzhu was holding a spring grass green cloak in her hand and standing on tiptoe at the side entrance of Yimei Garden, looking around. When she saw her master coming, she hurried forward.

"How is the Suiyuxuan?"

"Don't worry, my dear. No one is coming out from there."

Sun Miaoqing tied on her green tent and took up her small purse, which contained a small statue she had prepared before entering the palace.

In this feudal era, imperial power is heaven.

God has given her this opportunity, so she naturally wants to take advantage of it and grab all the love she can get.

Since Zhen Huan likes to avoid being favored, she might as well be a concubine in Suiyuxuan for the rest of her life.

However, she has already slept with the emperor, so there is still a difference between her and Zhen Huan. There is no point in leaving any blank space or suspense, so tonight, she wants to complete this plot on the spot.

So that Yu Ying'er doesn't have to appear and dominates the entire first month of the year.

Naturally, Sun Miaoqing believed that what she was doing was not for the emperor's favor, but to have a child. She was confident that she could keep the child from the aborted CEO, give birth to the Sixth Prince, and stabilize her second half of life.

"Stay here and don't let anyone see you. If anyone from Suiyuxuan comes over, find a way to lure her away."

Sun Miaoqing specifically instructed: "Just imitate the meow of a cat."

That bitch Zhen Huan is most afraid of cats.

Lu Zhu nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, my lady. You dragged me to rehearse many times before we went to Beijing. I know what to do and nothing will go wrong."

Sun Miaoqing glanced around and walked into the garden carrying a lantern.

At the family banquet in the Qianqing Palace, the emperor was slightly drunk and saw Sun Miaoqing leaving just now. She seemed to be wearing the Hongmei palace dress today.

Then he remembered that Concubine Hua had mentioned Yimei Garden, so he asked casually:

"Have all the plum blossoms in the palace bloomed?"

[Nothing can make one think of someone, it is clear that it has nothing to do with the red plums, the emperor just loves Chun Yuan too much, does he want to go out for a walk alone again? ]

Nian Shilan is becoming more and more suspicious. Are these people destined to end up in their predetermined positions no matter how hard they try or how they change?

The Queen's hand that was drinking the wine hesitated slightly: It seems that the Emperor had left everyone alone and went to Yime Garden in his previous life.

"It blooms in the bitter cold," said the Queen.

"I want to go and see it."

The Queen couldn't help rolling her eyes as she blinked. She was about to speak when she heard Nian Shilan's inner voice:

【Look at you, hammer! 】

"Um?"

The drunk emperor was confused about reality for a moment and looked at Nian Shilan, "What did you say?"

Nian Shilan was stunned: [Hmm? Did I say anything? ]

When the empress heard what the emperor said, she also suspected that Hua Fei had spoken out her inner thoughts again: This idiot! She always loves to speak out what she thinks!

She continued calmly, trying to smooth things over for Concubine Hua, "It's freezing cold, Your Majesty, please take care of yourself."

Nian Shilan knew this was the outcome, so she interrupted the queen and said, "How can I let you down if you bloom in the early frost? Your Majesty, please stop talking."

The emperor couldn't help but look at her a little more when Nian Shilan said what he wanted to say the most:

She seems so arrogant and boastful on weekdays, but I never expected that she is the one who understands herself best at critical moments.

He stood up, called out to Su Peisheng, ordered no one to follow him, and then went out.

Su Peisheng wanted to follow but didn't dare to, so he came to ask the Queen for her opinion. The Queen looked at Nian Shilan.

"What does Concubine Hua think?"
