She always plays cards out of the ordinary

Chapter 111: Legend of Zhen Huan 56

Nian Shilan recalled that she seemed to have heard of this before, "Forget it, how about I invite the emperor over?"

Lipin nodded, "That's fine, but is the emperor willing to come? During this period, the emperor went to Zhaopin's Yanxi Palace whenever he had time. I don't know if he can snatch the emperor over?"

Nian Shilan glanced at Lipin and said, "If you can't speak, shut up. The emperor is not an object, how can you say he is being robbed?"

"But what I said was also true. It's not like no one was trying to intercept you on the road, it's just that the emperor didn't go."

Seeing that her queen and Concubine Li had been talking for a long time without coming to any conclusion, Songzhi thought of General Nian.

"Madam, why don't you write a letter to General Nian? Perhaps the general has a solution?"

Nian Shilan stopped turning around and said, "Yes, I can ask my brother. He will definitely help me regain his favor."

"Then Madam, please write the letter quickly. I will ask Zhou Ninghai to arrange for someone to deliver it."

Upon hearing this, Nian Shilan ignored Lipin who was waiting on the side and went directly to another room to write a letter. Songzhi thought that her queen didn't have many helpers now, so she still had to win over Lipin.

She immediately led Lipin to sit next to her, "Please sit down, Madam Lipin. My queen was so happy that she forgot to tell you. Please don't blame me. Please sit here for a while and try the water chestnut cake from our Yikun Palace. The cakes in our palace are famous throughout the palace."

Lipin didn't care that she was abandoned by Nian Shilan. She had never had any status in Nian Shilan's eyes. Now, being flattered by Songzhi, she was instantly happy.

"It's alright, go ahead and do your work. I'll be waiting for Concubine Nian here, and have some tea and snacks while I'm at it."

After Songzhi settled Lipin, she came out to find Zhou Ninghai, "The queen has written a letter. Please have someone deliver it to the Nian Mansion later."

Zhou Ninghai was somewhat embarrassed when he heard this. "I'm afraid this is not easy to handle."

Song Zhi's eyes widened. "How could it be? Could it be that all our people were sent out of the palace?"

Zhou Ninghai waved his hand, "Not really, it's just that most of them are gone, and the rest are difficult to handle."

Songzhi thought of Nian Shilan's happy expression just now. If she went to spoil her fun at this time, she would definitely end up in trouble.

"Then you should think of a solution quickly. You can't let the queen not even be able to send a letter, right?"

Seeing that Songzhi was worried, Zhou Ninghai stammered and suggested another solution.

"This... there is another way, which is to send it out through the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Recently, because the emperor has been conducting a strict investigation of the harem a few days ago, everyone is very cautious. Therefore, if you want them to help, it will cost a lot of money."

Songzhi didn't care, "We spend money if we want. As long as we can restore the queen's favor, we will have the opportunity to collect money in the future."

Seeing Songzhi's confident look, Zhou Ninghai didn't dare to refuse anymore. In fact, there was one thing he didn't say, which was that when the queen was still Concubine Hua, not only was she the most favored in the six palaces, she was also in charge of some palace affairs. In the past, those people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs had to call her brother and grandpa when they saw her.

Now that the queen has been demoted to a junior concubine and has lost the power to assist in managing the six palaces, if I go to find them, I will have to call them grandpa.

Zhou Ninghai thought about how powerful he used to be. Now he went to ask others for help and wondered how people would laugh at him.

Without paying attention to Zhou Ninghai's thoughts, Songzhi went in after giving instructions. She had to serve the empress.

A few days later, when Zhen Huan was in the Imperial Garden, she met Concubine Qi who was admiring the flowers. Zhen Huan wanted to take this opportunity to retreat, but as soon as she turned around, she was discovered by Concubine Qi.

When Concubine Qi saw the person who turned around and left, she immediately became unhappy, "Stop, who is that person in front of you? He saw me and ran away without knowing how to greet me?"

Cuiguo followed behind Concubine Qi. Although she was not very familiar with Zhen Huan, she had an impression of Huanbi. This was mainly because when she paid her respects to the Queen before, she found that Huanbi, a palace maid, was dressed like a lady. Later, when the Queen was imprisoned, she would occasionally meet Huanbi when she went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to collect her monthly allowance.

So Cuiguo recognized Huanbi as soon as she saw her, "Madam, that is Wan Changzai from Suiyuxuan."

When Concubine Qi heard this, her first reaction was that Cuiguo had such a good eye, and her second reaction was that Zhen Huan, a mere maid, didn't even greet her.

Seeing Zhen Huan coming over here, Concubine Qi also asked Cuiguo, "Cuiguo, when did your eyesight become so good? You can tell that it's Concubine Wan from such a distance?"

Cuiguo replied a little embarrassedly, "Madam, I didn't recognize Wan Changzai, I recognized her personal maid Huanbi. Madam, you don't know, Huanbi is very famous among us maids.

She often wears things that only young ladies can wear, and she acts rather arrogantly, never greeting us palace maids, so everyone recognizes her. As soon as I saw her clothes, I knew it was Huanbi, because in the whole palace, only Huanbi can wear the floating brocade that young ladies rarely wear.

"What, Fu Guang Jin?"

Concubine Qi thought that she didn't even own any of this batch of floating brocade, and yet it was worn by a maid, which was a slap in her face.

"Haha, a little maidservant who is always here is dressed better than her master. She is really brave. Today I want to meet this Miss Huanbi."

As soon as Concubine Qi finished speaking, Zhen Huan and others came to her, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to Concubine Qi."

"Stand up, I heard that there is a very beautiful maid named Huanbi beside Concubine Wan. Who is Huanbi? Lift your head and let me see it."

Zhen Huan was somewhat surprised that Concubine Qi actually knew Huanbi, but she couldn't give Huanbi a look at this moment, so she could only hope that Huanbi wouldn't make any mistake.

When Huanbi heard Concubine Qi praising her, she was secretly delighted. After all, as Zhen Huan's sister, she thought that she was no worse than Zhen Huan except for her status.

Huanbi had a barely perceptible joy on her face, "Your servant greets Her Majesty the Concubine Qi."

Concubine Qi walked around Huanbi, praising her while shaking her head.

"Incredible, incredible. The Feng Shui of Suiyuxuan is really good for people. The two maids beside Wan Chang are both very good-looking, especially Miss Huanbi. When she puts on this floating brocade and a ruby hairpin, if I hadn't told you, I would have thought there was another sister in the palace."

When Zhen Huan heard Concubine Qi mention "Floating Light Brocade", she glanced at Huanbi's clothes and then remembered that she had given Huanbi several pieces of clothes before, but she didn't seem to have any clothes with "Floating Light Brocade".

Zhen Huan had obviously forgotten the package that An Lingrong sent her. Jing Xi mentioned it at that time, but Zhen Huan would rather accept Shen Meiyu's help than accept charity from An Lingrong, a lower-ranking person.

Therefore, when Huanbi mentioned it, she gave it to her directly. Zhen Huan really didn't remember the origin of this floating brocade for a moment, but this kind of material is obviously not something that Huanbi, a palace maid, can wear. If Concubine Qi wanted to, she could definitely punish Huanbi for her presumption.

"Huanbi, kneel down!"
