Episode 70
The queen took the opportunity to accuse Zhen Huan, believing that Ying Guiren was recommended by Zhen Huan's second sister Yu Yin to serve the emperor in the palace, and Zhen Huan was inseparable from this matter.The emperor was very angry with Hongshi and Yinggui for their pretentiousness, but he could not bring justice to his son for the sake of a woman, so he rebuked Yinggui for trying to seduce the prince, and gave Bai Ling to put him to death, and at the same time took back Zhen Huan's power to co-manage the Sixth Palace. On the surface,Ignoring Zhen Huan actually allowed her to temporarily avoid the limelight and comfort her in private.
Hongshi thought about his mistake in Fengxian Hall, but was slapped and scolded by the emperor for having evil intentions, causing the innocent Yinggui to die in vain, and his impression in the emperor's mind became even worse.Concubine Jing originally wanted to overthrow the queen, but she didn't want to be bitten by the queen and felt guilty.Zhen Huan is pregnant again, and the predicament can be solved, but she is worried that the Prince of Guo County will be implicated.The emperor was worried day and night about the matter of establishing an heir. Although he did not want to interfere too much in the harem, he was very worried about the collusion between the former dynasty and the harem. In order to ensure the stability of the political situation, he decided to secretly establish a heir.
When the palace was closed to worship the ancestors, the emperor asked everyone to understand Concubine Xi's difficulties and asked the queen to lay off a group of maids to avoid too much gossip in the palace.Zhen Huan, Huang Guifei, and Jing Guifei talked. Huang Guifei told the past between Queen Yi Xiu and the two sisters who passed away, Chun Yuan. Zhen Huan suddenly remembered Ling Rong's last words, and the three of them couldn't help but suspect that Chun Yuan's death was related to the queen.Longyue happened to overhear the conversation between the three people. Concubine Jing taught her to protect her biological mother, Empress Xi, at all times and not to let the queen bully her.
Zhen Huan became pregnant again, but due to years of physical weakness, even Wen Shichu said that she would not be able to keep the child in her belly, so she decided to take advantage of this opportunity to overthrow the queen.On the birthday of the late emperor, the queen arranged for the third elder brother to prepare well. The emperor was very happy to hear that the third elder brother had fulfilled his filial piety for the late emperor. However, he also heard that he liked to make friends with the ministers of the previous dynasty. He had a grudge and sent the prince to sacrifice to the late emperor Jingling.Not to mention.
The emperor came to Yongshou Palace to visit and brought red coral as tribute. Zhen Huan deliberately said that the fetus in her belly was very lively and active. She also asked the emperor to ask the empress, imperial concubine, concubine Jing and others to pray for the child in her belly.
The concubines were invited to the Yongshou Palace. In order to avoid suspicion, the queen complained of illness and refused to attend the appointment. However, the emperor personally invited her warmly and had to take the risk to come to the Zhen Huan Palace.Zhen Huan secretly drank the abortion medicine and asked the queen, the imperial concubine, the concubine Jing and her to personally hang the blessing bag in her palace. Longyue followed curiously.
