She always plays cards out of the ordinary

Chapter 126: Legend of Zhen Huan 71

"Empress Dowager, this child naturally belongs to the Fucha family, not the Ulanara family. In this matter, the interests of this concubine, the Queen, and you are the same.

None of us wants Zhaopin to give birth to a prince and ascend to the throne. In that case, why miss this opportunity? Why not take this opportunity to suppress Zhaopin, abort her child, and eliminate a great enemy for the queen. "

The Queen Mother listened to Zhen Huan's words quietly for a while before speaking.

"It was you who caused Concubine Qi to cause trouble in the Yanxi Palace, right? What do you want from me?"

Zhen Huan was delighted and took several steps forward on her knees.

"Please, Queen Mother, save my life."

The Queen Mother found it a little funny. She didn't expect Zhen Huan to be so naive.

"Do you think I will protect you just because of what you did? You just saw the emperor's attitude and found that you couldn't escape, so you came to me."

The Queen Mother's words made sense, but Zhen Huan knew too well what would happen to useless people, so she quickly confessed her feelings.

"The Queen is imprisoned, and Concubine Zhao also needs someone to counterbalance her. Zhen Huan is willing to serve the Queen at her whim."

It must be said that Zhen Huan's words really touched the heart of the Queen Mother. The Queen was imprisoned, Concubine Hua was demoted, and Concubine Qi was even demoted to a concubine.

There is almost no high-ranking concubine in the palace who can rival Zhaopin. The entire harem is almost dominated by Zhaopin. This is not acceptable.

The Queen Mother thought about it and said something casually.

"One person is too weak."

Zhen Huan instantly understood what the Queen Mother meant. She felt that she was not favored enough and could not speak in front of the Emperor. Although Zhen Huan felt a little sour in her heart, she still promised.

"Sister Mei and I are like sisters, and we have always stood together. If Sister Mei knew that she could often listen to the Queen Mother's teachings, she would be very happy."

The Queen Mother then nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, I promise you that I will protect you after the incident. But you must remember your words. This is not a shelter."

Upon hearing this, Zhen Huan immediately kowtowed to the Queen Mother to express her gratitude.

"Yes, thank you very much, Queen Mother. Thank you very much, Queen Mother."

"That's enough. I'm tired too. Please kneel down and pay your respects."

After the Queen Mother finished speaking, she returned to her bedroom with the help of Aunt Zhuxi.

Zhen Huan kept bowing in thanks, quietly listening to the Queen Mother's receding footsteps.

Only after confirming that the Queen Mother had completely left did Zhen Huan kneel down on the ground, gasping for breath.

She won the bet, not only saving herself but also gaining the support of the Queen Mother and the Empress.

Given the Queen Mother's fear of Concubine Zhao, she would definitely recommend herself and Sister Mei to the Emperor. Zhen Huan knew that she was not far from being favored.

Shen Meizhuang had been waiting outside the palace and had not gone back, for she was worried that something unexpected might happen along the way.

After seeing Zhen Huan come out with a smile on her face, Shen Meizhuang felt relieved. Due to the current situation, the two said nothing and supported each other back to Sui Yuxuan.

At this point, Shen Meizhuang confirmed, "But it worked?"

A smile spread in Zhen Huan's eyes and she nodded heavily.

Shen Meizhuang patted her chest. "Amitabha, this is great. Don't you know how worried I am out there? As long as the Queen Mother is willing to protect you, I think even if the Emperor finds out, he won't do anything to you."

Zhen Huan stood up, poured a cup of tea for Shen Meizhuang, and handed it to her personally.

She knew that she was in real danger this time. If Shen Meizhuang had not been willing to speak for her in front of the Queen Mother, she might not even be able to enter Shoukang Palace.

"I would also like to thank Sister Mei for intervening on my behalf. Sister Mei is so kind, Zhen Huan will never forget it."

Shen Meizhuang took a few sips of tea before putting down the cup. She was so nervous this morning that she didn't even drink water.

"The palace is already dangerous, and we two sisters should support each other. Why do we need to be so polite?"

Zhen Huan knew that Sister Mei had always been kind to her without asking for anything in return, and she silently kept in mind Shen Meizhuang's kindness. She decided that after she gained favor and was promoted to a higher position in the future, she would definitely repay Sister Mei.

The Queen Mother was obviously not a reckless person. After knowing this matter, she did not immediately go to the Emperor, but waited for Zhen Huan to get into trouble.

Not only that, she also used the few remaining manpower to push this matter forward, making sure that the whole thing would spread so that it could become a big deal.

At the same time, the emperor also had to discover Zhen Huan hiding behind the scenes. It was not known whether the Queen Mother's actions worked or Yinzhen's control over the harem was strong enough.

Anyway, the details of the incident were soon laid out on the desk in the Yangxin Palace.

Yinzhen watched how Zhen Huan, a mere maid, could easily manipulate the former Concubine Qi, and he didn't know whether he should lament Li's stupidity or Zhen Huan's audacity.

However, thinking about how Shen Meizhuang was willing to be a supporting role to help her, and even the fact that Concubine Shen brought Concubine Wan to the Empress Dowager's Shoukang Palace two days ago, the Emperor also knew about it.

Yinzhen placed the pile of information heavily on the desk and said, "My Concubine Wan is really smart!"

After Yinzhen finished speaking, he thought that this incident could serve as an example to scare the monkeys, so he called Su Peisheng.

"Bring Concubine Wan, Li Yingying, and Shen Guiren to the Yangxin Palace. As for Concubine Zhao, forget it. Go ask her if she is willing to come. If she is not willing, don't force her."

Su Peisheng was grateful for the emperor's favor towards Concubine Zhao in his heart. He turned around and asked someone to bring Concubine Wan and the others over, while he went to the Yanx Palace in person to invite Concubine Zhao.

When Fu Cha Xinyun learned that the matter was going to be investigated, he took people there without saying a word.

After all, Concubine Qi... Uh no, Li Da Ying is just the gun on the surface, the figure hidden behind it has not yet appeared.

I don't know how the emperor is investigating. However, Fucha Xinyun is still quite confident in this emperor. After all, there are very few emperors like Fatty Ju who are so confused and afraid of this and that.

"Yutong Yulan, hold me, let's go to the Yangxin Palace to take a look at the monsters in this palace."

***

When Zhen Huan was brought to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, she couldn't help but feel fortunate that she had already taken refuge with the Queen Mother. Otherwise, given the Emperor's emphasis on Concubine Zhao, she would have been in real trouble.

Li Da Ying came in before her. She was obviously not used to her new identity yet. Seeing that Zhen Huan had no intention of greeting her, she pointed at Zhen Huan first.

"What are you here for?"

Of course, Zhen Huan is also a suspect now. She doesn't dare to provoke him in the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, so she didn't take this opportunity to teach Li Da Ying a lesson, but she also didn't pay any attention to Li Da Ying.

The two ignored each other until Shen Meizhuang and Fu Cha Xinyun arrived at the same time, breaking the deadlock in the hall.
