Episode 36
Prince Dun requested that his late biological mother, Imperial Concubine Wen Xi, be given the title of Imperial Concubine. Nian Gengyao also mentioned this matter at this time. The emperor knew that the two were colluding and was furious, but he believed that it was not the final step to eradicate them.Good timing.
The emperor told Zhen Huan about the past. Concubine Wen Xi competed with Concubine Shu for favor and failed, and was despised by the late emperor.Zhen Huan asked all the concubines to be granted the title of Prince Dun's biological mother, and she also took into consideration the dignity of Prince Quanguo's biological mother, and at the same time respected the title of the Queen Mother.In order to appease the Nian family, Zhen Huan personally requested the emperor to restore her position as concubine Hua, and was determined to compromise.
When the queen learned that Zhen Huan was interfering in government affairs, she advised the emperor to be careful. However, the emperor believed that Prince Dun and other affairs were family matters and expressed his trust in Zhen Huan.Nian Gengyao regained his favor, Nian Gengyao went to the palace to meet Zhen Huan, and met Zhen Huan by chance. Naturally, the arrogant Nian Gengyao would not take a little concubine in his eyes, and he would never let go of those who framed the Nian family.
The queen saw that Zhen Huan's power was getting stronger and stronger, and she became anxious.The emperor adopted Zhen Huan's advice and restored Nian Shilan's title of Concubine Hua; but Concubine Hua was already worried about gain and loss like a frightened bird at this time.The emperor came to Zhen Yuandao and told him that he was secretly assisting him in collecting charges against Nian Gengyao, and suggested that he go to the palace to visit his daughter. Zhen Yuandao declined the emperor's proposal to avoid suspicion.
The emperor told the Queen Mother that Zhen Huan had contributed a lot to the Jin Dynasty's concubine. The Queen Mother reminded the emperor that the concubines in the harem were not allowed to interfere in politics, and warned the emperor to treat the six palaces equally to avoid unnecessary trouble.Meizhuang learned from the Queen Mother that it was Zhen Huan who suggested that the emperor resume his position as Concubine Hua. He was very angry and ignored Zhen Huan.
