The Empress Arrives: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 469 Very Different
Songzhi thanked him happily and said.

"Your Majesty is kind and kind, and we servants are blessed to follow you. Don't worry,
Those who have received money are very tight-lipped. "

Nian Shilan nodded. He always clearly rewarded and punished servants who did their jobs diligently.

she said again.

"Mrs. Shen was too impatient this time and fell into the Queen's trap again.

This has caused complaints from the entire palace, and I’m afraid life will be difficult in the future.

Look back and see if she is free, and call me over."

Songzhi asked curiously.

"Your Majesty has not asked about the affairs of the harem these days, why do you feel pity for Concubine Shen?

Concubine Shen is on good terms with Concubine Zhen, but you don’t like Concubine Zhen.”

Nian Shilan's voice suddenly softened, as if she was talking to herself.

"This is what I owe her."

Songzhi didn't understand, but she didn't dare to ask any more questions.

When Zhen Chang went to look for Concubine Shen, he saw her in a daze in the room and didn't even notice that he had entered the room.

Caiyue reminded gently.

"My lady, Miss Zhen is here."

Shen Guiren came to her senses and saw that it was indeed Zhen Changzai. She forced a smile on her face.

"Now that you are here, take a seat."

Zhen Changzai walked slowly to the table and took Shen Guiren's hand.

"Sister, what's wrong? I heard you were not busy today, so I came to see you.

As soon as I walked in, I saw that you seemed to be worried. Can you tell your sister about it? "

When Concubine Shen saw that Concubine Zhen was asking her, she spoke to her anxiously.

"Sister, you came at the right time. Today, you are alone, so I can speak directly to you about many things.

These days, the Empress has ordered a reduction in palace expenses, and everyone blames me for showing off in front of the Emperor.
If you don't care about other people's lives, you and Lingrong will inevitably be eliminated. Do you hate me?"

Zhen Changzai guessed the reason why Concubine Shen was in a trance when she came in, but she still looked surprised.

"What are you talking about, sister? You are following the orders of the Queen to help Concubine Duan.

Even if you came up with such an idea, it was to save money for the harem.
How could I hate you? What did my sister hear that she shouldn't have?

Before I came here, I heard that my sister was summoned to Qingliang Palace by Concubine Hua. Did she make things difficult for you?
When the sisters in the palace chatted, they would sometimes talk about how Concubine Hua was extravagant both in the palace and in the garden.

Could it be that Concubine Hua is making things difficult for my sister because of the reduction in the regular dishes?"

Zhen Chang was expecting Concubine Shen to say "yes". She didn't believe that Concubine Hua would turn a blind eye to such a matter concerning her own money.

Everyone has witnessed how exquisite Concubine Hua's expenses were in the past.

But Shen Guiren's answer disappointed her.

"No. When Concubine Hua asked me to go, she only asked a few questions about the harem.

Not only did she not blame me, but she comforted me and told me not to worry.

It was just that I heard some gossip on the way back and I took it to heart.

Huan'er, I originally thought that one of us would be able to come out on top.
This is the only way to help the other, but I am so useless.
I can't get what I want for a long time, and I can't help you. Do you blame me? "

Zhen Changzai smiled and held Shen Guiren's hand tightly.

"Sister, you also said that you tried so hard to climb up so that my life would be better.

Everyone in the palace laughs at me for not being favored by the emperor in the two years since I entered the palace, but I know that my sister is always behind me.
She has taken good care of me and tolerated me a lot, so how dare I blame my sister?

Even though you are still as busy as a top now and I have few opportunities to talk to you, in my heart, you will always be the good sister who grew up with me and experienced everything with me.

If even you are afraid of my blame, wouldn't we be hurting ourselves?"

Concubine Shen's eyes were instantly filled with tears, and she tried hard not to let them fall.

"Huan'er, I knew you would stand by my side.

Today I met with Concubine Hua, and she asked me to stay out of the spotlight for a while.
Find an excuse, and think about how to serve the emperor in your spare time.
See if we can have a boy or girl soon. Concubine Hua said,
I am so busy every day that I rarely have the opportunity to see the emperor.
I am afraid that the honors and favors in the future will be scarce, and it will be even more difficult to climb up."

Zhen Changzai said hurriedly.

"Sister, are you going to listen to Concubine Hua? I think this is inappropriate."

Concubine Shen looked at Concubine Zhen with tears in her eyes.

"What's wrong with that? You've always been smarter than me, why don't you analyze it for me?"

Zhen Chang is on the road.

"Sister, just think about it. In the past, it was Concubine Hua who assisted the Empress in managing the six palaces.
She was used to being surrounded by people and being bossed around.

Now, due to her health condition, she can no longer be so powerful in the harem.
There must be dissatisfaction in their hearts.”

Concubine Shen wiped away her tears and said hurriedly.

"That's not the case, Concubine Hua..."

But before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Zhen Changzai.

"Sister, listen to me. I know you got some benefits from following Concubine Hua.

But now you are following Concubine Duan, who is a serious person.

She doesn't easily stand out, and doesn't want to offend anyone. This kind of personality is actually not suitable for managing the harem.

The Empress Dowager values ​​you and wants you to help Concubine Duan. In fact, this is what the Empress Dowager intended.

She must have seen that her sister had outstanding talents and wanted to train her so that she could be of great use in the future.

Sister, look around the palace. The Queen has always been kind to us, but Concubine Hua always goes against her.

The Empress's majesty was almost overshadowed by Concubine Hua, who asked her sister to stay away.
Perhaps he didn't want to see his sister become successful in the future and be used by the Queen.

I heard that when the emperor returns, there will be new people entering the palace.

Perhaps among these newcomers, there are also some that Concubine Hua needs to be cautious about.

That's why I'm so afraid that my sister will go through training with the Queen."

Concubine Shen stared at the eloquent Concubine Zhen in amazement. Concubine Zhen, who had always been in perfect harmony with her since childhood, now had a different opinion from her.

But she also knew that given Zhen Changzai's personality, she would stand on the Queen's side, and nothing she said would be of any use.

So Concubine Shen nodded insincerely.

"What my sister said makes sense, I will consider it.

For now I will keep my troops under control and try to understand what the Queen is thinking.

As for Concubine Hua, she is no longer in charge of the matter.

What's the harm if I don't listen to her opinion?

By the way, since I entered the palace, I have been busy every day and neglected you a lot.

You are always with Lingrong, why don't you see Lingrong today?"

Zhen Changzai showed a lonely look and said.

"Ling Rong has had the opportunity to serve the Emperor several times these days. She greeted the Empress during the day and went back.

She always said she was tired, so she locked herself in the room all day to catch up on her sleep, and I didn't want to disturb her.

Although Lingrong is still with me, she is very different from me."
