Chapter 73 Red Dress Marries Dead Wife
How could Concubine Hua be suspicious?
Just because the emperor not only didn't let him bring Zhen Huan here alone, but brought her here as well?
Or was there something else that alerted her?
The Queen remained calm and decided to deal with all the changes by remaining unchanged.
Nian Shilan looked at the queen and launched an all-round personal attack on her in her heart.
【Why is there no response at all? 】
If it was the first time the Queen heard it, she would have shown some clues, but now, she was already used to it.
It doesn't matter.
[That's not right. If the Queen could hear my thoughts, wouldn't she know that I was testing her? ]
Did you just find out?
The Queen smiled inwardly: Rebirth has indeed made Concubine Hua smarter, but not much.
Temptation is not like this.
She leaned leisurely against the pool wall, waiting expressionlessly for the emperor and Zhen Huan to arrive next door.
You will know later whether the Emperor can hear Concubine Hua's thoughts.
Nian Shilan tried a few more words in her mind, but the Queen remained completely indifferent.
[…A few years later, Zhen Huan gave birth to a pair of nephews and nieces for the dog emperor. In order to protect his little Chun Yuan, the emperor said in front of everyone that you haven't been a biological mother for a long time and don't know how tedious and tiring it is to take care of a young child.]
If Nian Shilan's other probing words were like heavy punches and sharp swords, no matter how cruel they were, then this sentence that expressed no hope was like a silver needle.
It seems to have the least lethal power, but it can penetrate into the softest part of the heart.
There was nowhere to rub her and nowhere to hide.
At the bottom of the hot spring, the queen's nails were almost digging into her flesh.
Nian Shilan didn't come to any conclusion and felt that Songzhi was right. If there was really such a person in this world who could listen to people's minds from a distance, it should be her Songzhi who had it and no one else.
[How is it possible to be reborn and listen to one's heart? I am just too nervous. ]
Nian Shilan tried to divert attention by scolding the emperor, [Biological mother... The dog emperor hadn't been a biological father for a long time. He was the fourth master of twins for the first time, so he was overjoyed and it was normal for him to talk nonsense.]
[Even though the Queen Mother said that the two children were not like him, he was still very happy.]
The queen suddenly felt relieved:
How can we expect ivory to come out of the mouth of a man who can even harm his own flesh and blood?
Fang Ruo's voice came faintly from next door, "The Queen Mother and the Empress have already entered the pool. My lady, just wait here. The Emperor will be here soon."
"Aunt Lao."
The soundproofing is not very good, so I can't make out every word spoken, but the movements and stillness are clear.
Nian Shilan and the Queen kept silent tacitly and sank into the water.
The water in the pool was up to my shoulders.
Two circles of shallow ripples spread out with the two of them as the center, colliding and dissipating layer by layer, over and over again.
The water vapor diffuses the fragrance of the petals.
The emperor next door is coming.
He was wearing a bright red wedding dress, bending down and putting his hand into the hot spring.
The sound of water suddenly appeared, and Zhen Huan compared the emperor to Emperor Cheng of Han, and said that she dared not be Zhao Hede.
Even with just these simple words, the emperor was suspicious and felt that she had crossed the line, so he was angry and did not allow her to discuss state affairs.
Zhen Huan was clever and could appease the emperor with just a few words.
"My Concubine Wan is indeed eloquent, far superior to Feiyan and Hede who are only beautiful..."
Hua Fei couldn't hear clearly what he said, but she repeated his words completely in her mind.
Not only did he repeat it, he also commented on it.
[I can't say about her beauty, but your Concubine Wan is indeed smarter than Zhao Feiyan. At least she has the ability to make you the fourth master, unlike Feiyan and Hede, who were spoiled all their lives but ended up without even a child.]
[Don't worry. After you die, the world will belong to them and their son. Are you surprised? Are you surprised?]
Concubine Hua!
It’s Concubine Hua!
Empress Hua is nearby!
Zhen Huan didn't dare to look up, and was even worried that her heartbeat was accelerating. The abnormal ripples in the water aroused her suspicion, so she deliberately sank into the water.
emperor:"……"
It has to be said that from childhood to adulthood, the Queen Mother is the one who is most likely to cause trouble to herself.
"...I am more fortunate than Emperor Cheng of Han." The emperor continued to say what he had just said.
[Lucky… Wearing red and white robes to marry your deceased wife, who can compare with you in luck? ]
Even with a wall between them, it couldn't stop Concubine Hua's noisy heart.
You're here so just come and soak in her hot spring, why are you talking so much?
emperor:"……"
Wearing red and white robes to marry his deceased wife?
Zhen Huan was not wearing any silk now, but wherever she looked, the emperor was wearing a red robe.
So who am I in the eyes of the emperor?
[The favors of the Yujiao Room in Tangquan Palace are not as great as those of this concubine, even though I rely on my family status.]
[Zhen Huan, Zhen Huan, you are so smart, haven't you ever thought that there are many talented and beautiful people in the palace, why is it that you, who just entered the palace, have received such an honor? ]
Zhen Huan also wanted to know, and had always wanted to know.
She sat in the water without moving.
The emperor, who had always been obsessed with purity, simply sat on the steps and did not move after hearing this.
[That day when he first saw you in Yu Garden, you were standing alone in the shadow of the apricot blossoms. It wasn’t that you were indifferent and distant, it wasn’t that you were isolated and independent, it wasn’t that you were incomparable, it was that you were just right, like the purest.]
It turned out that the emperor pretended to be a prince to meet me, not because of interest or love.
He is neither stingy nor overly generous.
It was just because I happened to look so much like his deceased wife.
[You said that you are the emperor and your husband, and that all women in the world want to be with their husbands until old age. The emperor said that you have a pure heart and that such ordinary feelings are extremely rare in the harem.]
[Is it rare? ]
[What the harem lacks the least is this kind of ordinary feelings, right? ]
[Don’t say that I want to give him my whole heart, doesn’t the old lady, the Queen, want to do the same? ]
The Queen was originally quite sad, but when Hua Fei mentioned herself, she insisted on adding the word "old woman", and immediately all her emotions disappeared.
Really annoying.
[“I wish I had this ring, so we could be together day and night”, when the emperor wanted to kill the empress, the old woman was still wearing the token of love that the emperor gave her when she first entered the palace. Did he ever take such a mundane gesture seriously?]
Can you jump over yourself?
The Queen now heard from Concubine Hua her own infatuation and felt extremely disgusted.
My God, Concubine Hua entered the palace so late, how did she know that the emperor gave her a bracelet and gave her that excuse?
Is she reborn?
You won’t go to King Yan’s Palace after you die and see the life of the women in the harem, right?
Hua Feisi was not disturbed at all, and she continued to think.
