The Empress Arrives: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 526: Walk with Me
Yinzhen coughed lightly and stood still. Zhaopin lowered her head and could only see the corner of his clothes with dragon pattern.

Zhaopin closed her eyes, then raised her head and took a few steps back in panic.

"I'm being rude, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

There was no one around Yinzhen, not even Su Peisheng, which was something Zhaopin had never expected.

Just looking at the direction Yinzhen came from, it seemed to be Kunning Palace.

Yinzhen looked a little disappointed and nodded.

"Get up and walk with me."

So Zhaopin took the opportunity to send Jingshuang and Jinglu away, and followed Yinzhen gently and attentively.

Jingshuang and Jinglu looked at the emperor and their mistress's receding backs, and wanted to follow them unwillingly, but they didn't dare.

Zhaopin was one step behind Yinzhen, and Yinzhen said.

"You are the youngest daughter of the Feiyanggu family. How come I have never heard of you before?"

Zhaopin looked behind her quietly and saw that Jingshuang and Jinglu did not dare to follow her, so she replied in a low voice.

"I was born late, and I heard that when my elder sister entered the palace as a concubine, she was also the same age as I am now.

But I was not lucky enough to spend much time with my elder sister. When my elder sister entered the palace to serve her, I was less than two years old. "

Yinzhen said as he walked.

"You have heard so much? Is there anything else about Queen Chunyuan?"

Zhaobin thought for a moment and replied.

"There's not much left. All I know is the rumors in the palace about how loving the Emperor is to his elder sister.

I just saw the direction the emperor was coming from and knew the rumors were true.
There are few men in the world who are as loyal as Your Majesty. I can only sigh for your elder sister."

Yinzhen stopped and looked at Zhaopin with an amusement look on his face.

"Do you know that in this harem, guessing my thoughts at will is extremely disrespectful?
You just met me and you're guessing my feelings for Queen Chunyuan, huh?"

Zhaopin pretended to kneel down, but was held back by Yinzhen. Zhaopin raised her eyes to look at Yinzhen, then had to take another step back and said.

"Your Majesty is willing to walk with me alone, which means he doesn't dislike me.

The Emperor also allowed me to talk about Empress Chunyuan, and I didn't realize that my behavior was becoming more and more improper.

The reason why I dare to make such a bold guess is because what the Emperor did is too obvious.

You are coming from Kunning Palace. Everyone in the palace knows that Kunning Palace is the palace of the late queen.

I have heard since I was young that the Emperor and the late Empress were deeply in love, so what is there for me not to understand?"

Yinzhen suddenly laughed, turned around and continued walking forward.

"You are very smart, and very much like your sister. I am talking about your eldest sister."

Zhaopin followed Yinzhen's footsteps and spoke cautiously.

"I am so bold. I met the emperor today and I have the opportunity to say something.
The Empress is the current Empress, but the Emperor doesn't seem to care."

Yinzhen said.

"You really talked more today than usual, even when you were sleeping with me.
You have never spoken so much to me. Did the Queen ask you to test my feelings?"

Zhaopin bit her lip and shook her head. She never expected that Yinzhen, who was walking in front of her, could not see her.

"I dare not, nor do I care to do this. I am not afraid to say too much in front of the emperor.

Since I entered the palace, I have regarded the emperor as my husband.

Since you are my husband, I will not do anything that would undermine the emperor's dignity.

The Emperor asked me if it was the Empress who asked me to test His Majesty's feelings. I thought that my husband was the person I should be closest to right now, and the Empress was just the Empress.

I am the daughter of the Ulanara clan, but since I entered the palace, I have been the emperor's person."

Zhaopin's words were very straightforward, especially the sentence "she is the emperor's person", which emphasized the tone.

Yinzhen did not comment and just walked forward.

Su Peisheng came running hurriedly from the front, followed by several guards.

"I pay my respects to His Majesty, and Your Majesty has asked me to find you!
Why did you go out by yourself? I was really scared!"

Yinzhen said.

"The entire Forbidden City belongs to me. What are you afraid of? How can I lose it?"

Su Peisheng said.

"The Empress Dowager of Yonghe Palace invites you to have a chat. She has asked Zhuxi to wait for a long time in the Emperor's Yangxin Palace."

Yinzhen turned around, took Zhaopin's hand, and said to Su Peisheng.

"Go and tell the Queen Mother, I have something else to do. I will visit her another day."

Su Peisheng looked at Yinzhen holding Zhaopin's hand with some surprise, and seeing Zhaopin looking shy, he hurriedly nodded "hey hey" and went to reply to Zhuxi in a hurry.

Only after Su Peisheng left did Yinzhen let go of Zhaopin's hand.

"I will go back to the Yangxin Palace to review memorials first. You can go back now. I will ask the Fengluan Chunen Car to pick you up tonight."

A blush appeared on Concubine Zhao's face. She respectfully saw Yinzhen off and stood there in a daze for a long time before slowly walking back to her own Yanx Palace.

At night, the Fengluan Chun'en carriage took Concubine Zhao to the emperor's bedchamber. Upon hearing the news, Concubine Zhen, who lived in the same Yanx Palace, tossed and turned in bed, feeling lonely all night.

Zhen Chang was less than sixteen years old when she entered the palace. Now she is nineteen years old. She has wasted three years in the palace, but still has not even had the opportunity to serve the emperor.

Zhen Chang was daydreaming when suddenly a face became clear in his mind. Thinking of how he talked to him, Zhen Chang's cheeks began to feel hot as he huddled in the quilt.

But no matter what she was thinking about, in the end she just sighed silently and fell asleep.

At the end of October, before dawn, someone from Yikun Palace came hurriedly to report that Concubine Hua was about to give birth.

Su Peisheng was so frightened that he didn't care that Concubine Shen was still sleeping with him in the Yangxin Palace. He quickly stood outside the door and said to Yinzhen.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty~"

Yinzhen was half asleep and half awake, feeling a little impatient.

"It's not time to go to court yet."

Su Peisheng said carefully.

"Your Majesty, someone just came from the Yikun Palace and said that Concubine Hua is about to give birth!"

Yinzhen woke up immediately, but Concubine Shen was a light sleeper and became more alert every time she served him in bed. After hearing what Su Peisheng said, she sat up and helped Yinzhen get dressed.

Yinzhen got up in a hurry and asked Concubine Shen to get enough sleep before going back.

How could Concubine Shen dare to do that? After waiting for Yinzhen to go out, she immediately called someone in to dress her up and went to Yikun Palace.

With the experience of Nian Shilan's delivery the previous time, everyone in Yikun Palace had prepared the delivery room early, and it was Wen Xianqing's mother, Liu, who delivered Nian Shilan again.

Basins of hot water were constantly being delivered to the delivery room. Yinzhen had already sent Su Peisheng to inform the court officials that he would not attend court today.

He sat in the Yiku Palace, drinking tea and waiting while twisting the beads in his hands. Su Peisheng knew that Yinzhen was extremely anxious.

Yinzhen thought of what happened on the day Nian Shilan gave birth to Hongli, and felt very scared, so he ordered that no one was allowed to visit the Yikun Palace, and added many guards to guard it.

He wants Nian Shilan to give birth without worries and come out safely!
