Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1100 Zhen Huan Enlarged to 26

Concubine Hui didn't know that she had been sentenced to "death" by Big Fat Ju. Concubine Wan, who lived in the palace, was extremely anxious. However, she was pregnant now and had no right to persuade Concubine Hui to be cautious. She could only worry secretly.

Huanbi saw her master's difficulties and worries, and couldn't help rolling her eyes at the East Palace. She advised Wan Guiren: "My lady, I know you are worried about the one in the East Palace, but you have to take care of yourself first. You are pregnant with the heir to the throne, and you shouldn't be working hard for less than three months."

Concubine Wan also knew that she should relax a little, but Concubine Hui was not an ordinary person. Now she was blatantly threatening and bribing the imperial physician to ask for that damn secret recipe for having a child. She couldn't believe that her sister Mei would do this.

So I finally went to his house and prepared my words, intending to take the opportunity to persuade him.

Concubine Hui was only happy about Concubine Wan's pregnancy. She was of course very welcoming to see Concubine Wan coming to her house. Without waiting for Concubine Wan to bow, she quickly took her hands and carefully led her to sit down. She also specially changed the cup of honey water and Poria cocos cake.

Concubine Hui spoke to Concubine Wan warmly, "Huan'er, you are pregnant now, so tea is not good to drink. This honey water is just right. Fuling cake is also a warming and nourishing ingredient. I asked someone to personally watch over it, so there will be no problem."

Seeing that Hui Guiren was so concerned about her, Wan Guiren felt that she should give her some advice. "Sister Mei, don't just take care of me. You should also take good care of your body. Who knows, this prince might come like this."

Concubine Hui also felt that she had gone too far before. When Concubine Wan mentioned this, she couldn't help but blush, "Okay, Huan'er, I am indeed worried about the offspring, but it is mostly for our future. In this palace, all the favors are empty. Only children can be relied on. I was also anxious for a moment."

Since Concubine Hui had said all the good and bad things about her herself, Concubine Wan didn't know how to start talking anymore. She could only put aside her plan to persuade her for the time being, and the two of them talked intimately about needlework.

When Concubine Wan returned to the west palace, Huanbi couldn't help but sigh, "Let alone others, I'm afraid that the Empress and Concubine Hui are the only ones in the palace who won't be unhappy because the young lady is pregnant."

In fact, there were other people who would not be unhappy because Concubine Wan was pregnant, but Huanbi was too arrogant. She looked down on even Concubine Hui, who was on good terms with Concubine Wan. She was even more picky about other concubines. Even Queen Jiang Xinxin was told by Huanbi, "I heard that the Queen was also born out of wedlock."

The concubines and palace servants in the harem were all waiting to see Concubine Hui's show, but Fatty Ju could not tolerate being implicated by Concubine Hui and losing face, so the fact that Concubine Hui was secretly taking medicine was soon exposed.

Of course, Liu Bin, the imperial physician who was bribed by the Nian family, was secretly punished early on. Although Concubine Hui was not accused of faking pregnancy to win favor, she completely lost her ability to be a mother from then on.

Big Fat Ju demoted Shen Meizhuang to a commoner and sent her to the cold palace on the charge that Concubine Hui had colluded with the imperial physician to commit misconduct. He also dealt with the other two imperial physicians bribed by the Nian family. This move of killing the chicken to scare the monkey was not concealed at all. The previous dynasty could not help but talk about it, and the censor impeached the Nian family.

Concubine Hua has been very proud recently. Shen Meiyu was "exiled" to the cold palace so smoothly by her. Even Concubine Wan's kneeling and begging for mercy with her belly bulging was of no use. Although she lost three imperial doctors, she was not actually seriously injured. In fact, her second brother became more and more capable in the previous dynasty. Now he has taken charge of all military and political power in Sichuan and Shaanxi provinces. He is truly second to none.

So when she saw the indignant look on Concubine Wan's face during the greetings, she could not stand it at all and directly scolded her, "What kind of look is Concubine Wan looking at me with? Your good sister, the commoner Shen Meizhuang, behaved inappropriately herself. Could it be that this is my fault?"

"It's because the Queen is too kind that she allows little nobles like you to take advantage of your pregnancy to steal the favors everywhere!"

Noble Lady Fucha and Noble Lady Guaerjia had been taking advantage of their pregnancies to become spoiled recently, but after being given a stern look by Concubine Hua today, they immediately became clear-headed.

Wan Guiren was not so easily frightened by Hua Fei. She smiled and said, "The Queen is fair and generous in her dealings. This is the role model of the harem. No one can compare to her."

"I have known Sister Mei since childhood, so of course I understand her style of doing things. It is impossible for her to collude with the imperial physician to cause trouble in the harem. I am afraid that someone is deliberately plotting this. I only regret that my health is getting worse day by day, and I don't have the energy to clear Sister Mei's grievances."

"But I have heard that the truth will eventually come to light. I just don't know if the mastermind behind this will be able to bear the charge of deceiving the emperor by then."

Hua Fei felt guilty for a moment, but thinking about the fact that the Emperor punished the imperial physician who was bribed by the Nian family, even if it was in the past, she immediately became righteous again, "Wan Guiren is good at talking, and she dared to use the Emperor's banner to threaten the concubines in Jingren Palace. I wonder how she will behave in front of the Emperor."

Jiang Xinxin came out, and everyone saluted together. However, Concubine Hua was still as she was when she was in the palace. She was reluctant to bend her knees any more, and just stood up lazily and casually.

Jiang Xinxin's face darkened immediately. "General Nian is really powerful. It was not enough for him to sell official positions in the previous dynasty. He also took care of Concubine Hua who was disrespectful to the Empress in the harem. It's also because I, a queen with no one in my family, am weak that I can't accept Concubine Hua's courtesy."

"However, I think it's because Concubine Hua was not brought up with rules and disciplines when she was in the boudoir, so this is the reason. It seems that I have repeatedly reprimanded the women of the Nian family for doing something wrong. Those who refuse to change after repeated admonitions should be beaten to death with a stick."

Hua Fei was so angry that she started to cry. She gritted her teeth and squatted down to salute again, "Your concubine greets the Queen. May the Queen be blessed with good health."

Jiang Xinxin still felt it was not enough, and said with a smile: "Don't force yourself, your rank as Concubine Hua is still a little low, how about I go to the Yangxin Palace and ask for permission to depose myself, so that Concubine Hua can be the queen?"

Now that was good, everyone else quickly knelt down to apologize, and Hua Fei had no choice but to kneel down too after realizing it belatedly.

Jiang Xinxin was really fed up, and waved her hand unhappily to let everyone leave, "Okay, leave now, that's all for today, come back on the first, fifteenth, and end of the month."

Concubine Hua really wanted to leave, but unfortunately Jiang Xinxin had just ordered to change the date of the greeting. If she left directly, she would not be able to go to the Yangxin Palace.

Concubine Qi hurriedly led her people out of Jingren Palace. After leaving the palace, the group dared to talk a little. No matter what, Noble Lady Fucha and Noble Lady Guaerjia would never dare to cause trouble again by relying on their pregnancies.

Hua Fei took a few deep breaths and tried to pretend to admit her fault. "Please forgive me, Queen. It's all my fault. I will definitely change for the better in the future."

Jiang Xinxin sneered, "Don't, I still like your previous rebellious look. I wish I could take charge of the Phoenix Seal right away and let the ladies inside and outside the palace pay homage to me."

Hua Fei clenched her hands to suppress her temper. She didn't dare to explode at this time. She could only continue to endure, "It's all my fault. I didn't mean to say anything wrong in front of the Queen. Please forgive me, Queen."

Jiang Xinxin would not let Concubine Hua off just because she bowed her head for a moment. "Jianqiu, inform the six palaces that Concubine Nian was disrespectful to the Queen. She will be stripped of her title and confined to Yikun Palace for a month. No one is allowed to visit her."

Concubine Nian almost bit off her back teeth, but she could only obey the order respectfully.
