Chapter 132 Consort Fucha
Looking at the Empress's pale face and swaying body...
Huichun said with great concern, "Your Highness, your health is of utmost importance!"
The Empress, suppressing the surging blood in her chest, gritted her teeth and forced herself to speak:
"I am fine. Let's have someone clean this place up first."
After saying that, she slowly closed her eyes, trying to calm the surging emotions in her heart.
Hui Chun dared not disobey the Empress's order, and hurriedly had someone fetch water to clean the water-stained dressing table mirror.
Even the Queen's handkerchief, which had been used to wipe away blood, was taken away and cleaned up.
The Empress, having calmed down, looked at Huichun.
"The people who used to serve Huanbi have all been sent back to the Imperial Household Department."
They've been assigned to other places. Do you think you could take this opportunity to send a few people to Suiyuxuan?
Hui Chun replied, "Yes, this servant will arrange it immediately."
The Empress desperately tried to conceal the fact that she was vomiting blood, but Nian Shilan soon found out.
Upon learning this, Nian Shilan couldn't wait to share the news with Fucha Peiyun.
Nian Shilan, along with Songzhi and others, hurriedly led their people to Fucha Peiyun's Yanxi Palace.
When Nian Shilan arrived at Yanxi Palace, Fucha Peiyun was playing with building blocks with Hongchang.
Nian Shilan swaggered into the hall and, upon seeing Fucha Peiyun, smiled and said:
"I received some good news today, have you heard?"
Fucha Peiyun knew what Nian Shilan was talking about.
However, she wouldn't mention that she had already heard about this and came to sweep Nian Shilan.
Fucha Peiyun looked up, chuckled, and put down the building blocks in her hand.
Let Ye Lanyi continue playing with Hongchang.
"What good news?"
After Nian Shilan sat down, she leaned close to Fucha Peiyun and whispered:
"Yesterday, Zhen Huan regained favor and became Consort Wan. That old woman, the Empress, heard about it early this morning."
He was so angry he vomited blood.
Empress Fucha Peiyun remarked, "The Empress's temper is getting worse and worse."
Nian Shilan raised her eyebrows smugly.
"That's right! That old woman always puts on an act of being virtuous and generous."
She didn't want anyone in the harem to be unaware of her background.
Hmph, now he's so angry at Zhen Huan that he's vomiting blood, it's truly gratifying!
The poor empress was so angry that she vomited blood, and not even the imperial physician dared to be summoned.
"Being an empress is truly frustrating."
Then, Nian Shilan changed the subject and said, "Speaking of Zhen Huan, I truly admire her."
She not only dared to have an affair with Prince Guo
And they actually had the audacity to pin the illegitimate child she had with Prince Guo on that old man's head.
Such skills are not something an ordinary woman possesses.
Upon hearing this, Fucha Peiyun covered her mouth and chuckled softly, teasingly saying:
"Since you admire Zhen Huan so much, sister..."
Could it be that my sister also intends to follow her example and add another green hat to the Emperor's head?
Upon hearing this, Nian Shilan was first taken aback, then burst into laughter, the sound echoing throughout the palace.
After laughing, Nian Shilan lowered her voice and said
"What is there that I wouldn't dare to do?"
Unfortunately, there are very few handsome men in the palace for me to choose from.
Even if I wanted to, what could I do?
As she spoke, she helplessly spread her hands, a hint of regret on her face.
After a pause, Nian Shilan leaned closer to Fucha Peiyun with great interest and asked in a low voice:
"What? Who have you taken a fancy to?"
Are you planning to cuckold that old man?
Tell me quickly, who is it that has managed to stir your heart?
Fucha Peiyun said very frankly:
"No, just as you said, there are very few men outside the palace who can move freely."
"No one I like has appeared yet."
Nian Shilan's lips curled slightly upwards, a sly smile suddenly appearing on her face, and she said softly:
"Tell me, what will happen when the Empress hears that Zhen is pregnant?"
Will she get so angry that she vomits blood again?
That old man has always shown a great deal of favoritism towards Zhen Huan!
As soon as news of Zhen Huan's pregnancy spreads...
It's likely that Zhen Huan will be promoted to Consort Wan again, or even directly to Imperial Concubine Wan!
Wouldn't our high and mighty Empress be furious?
Hahahaha…
Fucha Peiyun also laughed and said:
"The Empress will probably go mad then!"
Nian Shilan crossed her arms and continued triumphantly:
"It's really something to look forward to,"
I can't wait to see the Empress's furious face.
It would be best to anger her to death; that way, the palace would be rid of one of its most troublesome figures!
After saying that, she burst into unrestrained laughter again.
Time flies, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
That day, when Zhen Huan was having lunch, she had just picked up a piece of fish...
She felt nauseous and wanted to vomit. Seeing this, Jinxi quickly told Xiao Yunzi...
Wen Shichu was invited to the Imperial Hospital to come to Suiyu Pavilion for Zhen Huan to have her pulse taken.
Wen Shichu already knew that Zhen Huan was three months pregnant, but he still couldn't help trembling when he took her pulse.
Seeing this, Zhen Huan quickly warned Wen Shichu with her eyes.
After wiping himself, Wen Shichu hurriedly congratulated Zhen Huan.
"Congratulations, Consort Wan! You're pregnant, you're over a month along!"
Immediately, all the servants in the Suiyu Pavilion began to congratulate Zhen Huan on her pregnancy.
Not long after, the good news of Consort Wan's pregnancy spread throughout Suiyu Pavilion.
The clever little Yunzi ran to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to report the good news to the Emperor.
When the chubby orange emperor learned of this, he was overjoyed and delighted.
He couldn't wait to put down his busy official duties and rush to Suiyu Pavilion.
He just wanted to see with his own eyes the current state of his beloved Huanhuan.
When the Emperor stepped into Suiyu Pavilion, he was greeted by Zhen Huan's blissful expression.
She leaned back on the tatami mat, one hand gently resting on her slightly protruding belly.
Her face radiated maternal glow and anticipation for the future.
This made the chubby orange cat momentarily unable to tell whether it was Wanwan or Huanhuan.
Zhen Huan was delighted to see the big, fat orange.
"Si Lang, you've arrived."
Big Fat Orange came to her senses and said happily, "Huanhuan, you're pregnant with our child again."
Zhen Huan stroked her belly and said, "Yes."
"This is truly a joyous occasion, Huanhuan! I hereby promote you to the rank of Consort Wan!" said the chubby orange.
Once you have safely given birth to your child, I will bestow upon you the title of Consort.
This time, Zhen Huan did not refuse. "Your Majesty, I thank you for your grace."
only……"
Seeing Zhen Huan hesitate, the chubby orange cat hurriedly asked, "But what?"
Zhen Huan: "Both Huanbi and I are pregnant. I have been promoted to the rank of concubine, but Huanbi..."
The chubby orange cat felt a little uncomfortable hearing Huanbi's words, but for Huanhuan's sake...
"Then let's promote Huanbi to the rank of Huanbi Chenghuan Changzai, and once she has safely given birth to her child, she will be promoted to the rank of Guiren."
Zhen Huan said, "On behalf of Huanbi, I thank Your Majesty."
Upon hearing this news, the Empress was so enraged that she vomited blood again.
I wish I could rush to Suiyu Pavilion and tear Zhen Huan to pieces.
In her extreme rage, the queen's vision blurred, and she lost consciousness.
Fortunately, Huichun reacted quickly and caught the Empress.
After moving the Empress to the bed, Huichun hesitated for a long time before finally sending someone to the Imperial Hospital to fetch a royal physician.
Hui Chun specially invited Li Zhi, who took her pulse and his expression became serious.
"The Empress was already suffering from chronic illness, and the repeated shocks she endured have severely damaged her health."
If I don't take good care of myself in the future, I'm afraid it will shorten my lifespan.
Hui Chun hurriedly asked, "When will Her Majesty the Empress wake up?"
Li Zhi pondered for a moment and then said:
"Your Majesty, I will prescribe some medicine. After Your Majesty takes it, you should be able to wake up tonight."
However, you must avoid any further stimulation during this period.
Hui Chun readily agreed and hurriedly sent someone to prepare the medicine.
Hui Chun then instructed Li Zhidao, "Imperial Physician Li, Her Majesty the Empress's old illness has relapsed today."
Li Zhi replied, "Your humble servant understands."
Meanwhile, Zhen Huan was having a private conversation with Huan Bi in Suiyu Pavilion.
"Eldest sister, I am able to obtain this position today because of you."
Huanbi expressed her gratitude.
Zhen Huan held her hand and said, "We sisters will support each other and only hope that we can give birth to our children safely."
Huanbi said, "Once my elder sister gives birth safely and becomes Consort Wan, perhaps Father and the others can come back."
Zhen Huan said, "The prince's maternal family can't be criminals, so the emperor should let Father and the others come back."
That night, the Empress slowly awoke, her eyes filled with hatred.
After calling out to Huichun, the Empress whispered a few words in Huichun's ear.
Hui Chun listened and nodded.
After Zhen Huan regained favor, both Fucha Peiyun and Nian Shilan were waiting to see the Empress make a fool of herself.
As expected, the Empress fainted from anger once the news of Zhen Huan's pregnancy spread.
This news made Nian Shilan smile very happily.
Nian Shilan looked at Fucha Peiyun and asked, "How do you think the Empress will retaliate against Zhen Huan?"
"Zhen Huan has a face similar to Chun Yuan's; I don't believe the Empress will stop."
Fucha Peiyun: "The Empress's schemes have repeatedly failed before, so she probably won't act rashly this time."
They will lie low for a short time, then seize the opportunity to strike decisively.
Nian Shilan: "What you said makes sense."
I'm very curious what the Empress will do. This palace is utterly boring.
"I can only watch the Empress's antics from the sidelines."
Aside from the Empress, the people most dissatisfied with Zhen Huan's return to the Emperor's favor were the newcomers like Guarjia and Wen Yuan.
After Guarjia Wenyuan and others entered the palace, it was these newcomers who vied for the emperor's favor.
Or perhaps it's Consort Hui, Imperial Noble Consort, Noble Consort Shu, Noble Consort Jing, and other high-ranking concubines.
They've all stopped vying for favor; each of them can get a share of the pie.
Before Zhen Huan regained favor, whether it was Guarjia Wen Yuan or other newcomers...
They could all still receive some favor from the emperor, and each had the opportunity to gain the emperor's favor.
But who would have thought that once Zhen Huan regained the emperor's favor, the situation would change dramatically in an instant.
The emperor's favoritism towards Zhen Huan was truly alarming to them.
After Zhen Huan appeared, the Emperor went to Suiyu Pavilion almost every night, completely forgetting about everyone else.
She was just a disgraced concubine.
Now, however, she has transformed into the glamorous Consort Wan.
These newcomers could only see the emperor once every ten days or half a month.
This can't go on; Guarjia Wenyuan can't sit still any longer.
Guarjia Wenyuan became anxious upon seeing Zhen Huan become Consort Wan.
The Empress had previously wanted Guarjia Wenyuan to live in Suiyu Pavilion.
Jaws-Jia Wenyuan had long witnessed the Empress's methods.
I know the Empress is definitely plotting something again.
Guarjia Wenyuan dared not do as the Empress wished.
I'm afraid of falling into the Queen's trap.
But she also has to deal with Zhen Huan.
However, Guarjia Wenyuan knew she wasn't very clever.
He then sent Jinglan to invite Lin Wanqing and the others to Changchun Palace.
Jinglan hurriedly accepted the order and went to invite Lin Wanqing and the others to Changchun Palace.
Once everyone had arrived, Guarjia Wenyuan couldn't wait to speak first:
"My dear sisters, Zhen Huan is truly enjoying the utmost favor these days!"
If we don't figure out a way to deal with this, I'm afraid things will get tough from now on.
Upon hearing this, Lin Wanqing, who was sitting to the side, frowned and said:
"I've heard that Consort Wan has always been the Emperor's darling."
If she hadn't fallen out of favor because of her father's affair, she might have been made a concubine long ago.
Now that she has regained the emperor's favor and is enjoying great popularity, how easy is it to bring her down!
Guarjia Wenyuan, however, snorted coldly, and said indignantly:
"Are we just going to stand by and watch her favor the harem and do nothing?"
Since she regained favor, she hasn't even left us a drop of soup; it's absolutely outrageous!
At this moment, Wu Changzai, who had been silent all along, suddenly interjected:
"As far as I know, Consort Wan's pregnancy this time does not seem to be very stable."
Wu Yining's words surprised Guarjia Wenyuan.
As expected, a barking dog is a silent one; she should be wary of her.
Upon hearing this, Liu Changyi looked surprised and quickly waved his hand, saying:
"Sister Wu, don't talk nonsense."
Even if Consort Wan's pregnancy is unstable, plotting to harm the imperial heir is a heinous crime. We must never take such a risky step!
Upon hearing this, Guarjia Wenyuan's lips curled slightly upward, she raised an eyebrow, and explained unhurriedly:
"Look how scared you are! When did I ever say I wanted her to have a miscarriage?"
What I mean is, since Zhen Huan is so favored,
"Our best course of action would be to unite and devise a plan to win the Emperor's favor."
Everyone looked at her with suspicion, and Guarjia Wenyuan continued:
"Sisters, think about it, we are much younger than Zhen Huan!"
The reason why the emperor couldn't forget her was simply because he remembered their past friendship.
Now that Consort Wan is pregnant, she simply cannot wholeheartedly serve the Emperor.
After glancing around at everyone, Guarjia Wenyuan continued slowly and deliberately:
"In my humble opinion, we might take turns going to the Imperial Garden, a place the Emperor passes by every day, to create a chance encounter."
Then, take the opportunity to showcase your talents and skills to him. This will surely attract the Emperor's attention.
Upon hearing this, Wu Changzai's eyes lit up instantly, and she excitedly echoed, "
Sister's plan is brilliant! If any of us are fortunate enough to receive His grace...
At that time, she can naturally provide assistance and support to the other sisters.
Liu Changzai frowned slightly, a hint of worry on his face, and said softly:
"That's true, but what if the Emperor is only thinking about Consort Wan right now and ignores us?"
What should I do if they simply don't want to talk to me?
After all, Consort Wan was no simple character; her methods were sophisticated.
She managed to make a comeback after falling out of favor twice.
Such abilities are beyond the reach of most of us.
Listening to the discussions of the crowd, Lin Wanqing couldn't help but feel hesitant.
To be honest, she was really afraid that she would offend Consort Wan because of this.
This Consort Wan is indeed not to be underestimated.
Her cunning and strategic thinking are far beyond what ordinary women can achieve.
If we truly become enemies with them, I'm afraid things won't be easy for us in the future...
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Wanqing slowly spoke:
"My ladies, this matter requires careful consideration. Consort Wan is currently enjoying the Emperor's favor..."
If they knew about our scheme, they would probably hold a grudge.
