Chapter 234 The Legend of Zhen Huan Original Female Lead 17
Su Peisheng trembled with fear, and it was obvious that the emperor was really angry this time. He knelt down quickly and said tremblingly: "Well, I will check it out right away!"
Su Peisheng quickly found out that it was Concubine Li who had seen the Queen Mother, and Concubine Li followed Concubine Hua's lead, so it must have been Concubine Hua who was behind this.
Su Peisheng lowered his head and hurried back to the Yangxin Palace, reporting what he had found to Yinzhen: "Your Majesty, it was Concubine Li who went to Shoukang Palace a few days ago..."
Su Peisheng didn't dare to say anything more. Everyone knew that Concubine Li was under the care of Concubine Hua, so she always followed Concubine Hua's lead.
This matter was probably also caused by Concubine Hua. Perhaps it was because the Emperor failed to follow her wish to dine in the Yikun Palace last time and she had not entered the harem for a long time, so Concubine Hua became a little anxious.
After hearing this, Yinzhen's face became even gloomier. He was silent for a moment before he said coldly, "Hua Fei, you are becoming more and more presumptuous!"
Su Peisheng knelt on the ground trembling, not daring to speak, just waiting for Yinzhen's next instructions.
Yinzhen rubbed his brows, his eyes sinister: "Hua Fei relies on the power of the Nian family to become more and more arrogant in the palace. Do you really think I can't control her?"
He thought of Chu Huan's pretty face, and a surge of tenderness suddenly welled up in his heart.
No, he had to pave the way for Chu Huan and couldn't let her be bullied by the vicious woman Hua Fei.
"Your Majesty, you are finally here! It is almost dark, how can I enjoy my meal in peace?"
Concubine Hua was dressed in a bright red palace dress, leaning at the door of Yiku Palace with a coquettish look on her face, her tone full of resentment.
Yinzhen glanced at her calmly, and said in a neutral tone: "My beloved concubine, what you said is true. I am busy with many things every day. How can I accompany you to eat every day? If you are hungry, eat first, and you don't have to wait for me."
Hua Fei's heart skipped a beat. Why did the tone sound a little wrong? Although the emperor didn't come often in the past, he would always coax her with kind words every time he came. What happened today?
She rolled her eyes and asked softly, "Your Majesty, what did I do wrong to make you angry?"
Yinzhen sneered: "My beloved concubine is in charge of the six palaces. She is in a high position and has great power. How could she do something wrong?"
Concubine Hua became even more uneasy. It was clear from the emperor's tone that he was saying something else!
She was about to ask again, but Yinzhen ignored her and walked straight into the Yikun Palace.
"Your Majesty, please wait for me!" Concubine Hua hurriedly followed in.
The dinner was placed on the table, but it wasn't hot at all, obviously it had been left out for a while.
Yinzhen didn't even look at it. He walked straight to a chair beside him, sat down, picked up the teacup, and took a sip.
Seeing this, Concubine Hua became even more uneasy and asked cautiously, "Your Majesty, are you still angry with me? I know I was wrong, please don't be angry with me."
Yinzhen put down his teacup and looked up at her with a deep, unfathomable gaze: "My beloved, what have you done wrong? Why would I be angry with you?"
Hua Fei was frightened by his gaze, but she still pretended to be calm and said, "Your Majesty, please don't scare me. If you are unhappy, just tell me directly. I will definitely change."
"Forget it. I still have some memorials to review. I'll go back first!"
Concubine Hua was so angry that her eyebrows were raised, her eyes were wide open, and she pointed at Yinzhen's back, unable to speak for a long time.
"What's wrong with the emperor? He has never treated me like this before!" Concubine Hua stamped her feet and talked to herself at Yinzhen's back.
"Your Majesty, please don't be angry. It's not worth it if you get sick from anger." Seeing this, Song Zhi hurried forward to comfort her.
"Humph! How can it be easy for me not to be angry?"
Songzhi thought for a moment and said, "My lady, in my opinion, the emperor's attitude today is not necessarily a bad thing. Think about it, if he was really cold to you, he would have left just now. Why would he stay to have dinner with you? I think the emperor is upset. If you coax him, this matter may be over!"
Concubine Hua stopped and thought for a moment, then smiled faintly at Songzhi: "You are right! If he is really annoyed, won't he never come to my Yikun Palace again in the next few years?"
"Your Majesty, please don't be angry! The Emperor must be troubled by something unpleasant today, so don't take it to heart." Songzhi said as she gently rubbed Concubine Hua's temple.
"Hmph, I'd like to see what kind of person or thing could make the Emperor disregard his dignity like this!" Concubine Hua's eyebrows were raised, her eyes were wide open, and her chest was heaving violently with anger. She almost knocked the phoenix crown on her head, which was fluttering with pearls and jade, to the ground.
"Your Majesty, please calm down and be careful not to hurt yourself. The Emperor still supports you in his heart." Song Zhi consoled her carefully, fearing that she would ignite the ancestor's anger again and burn herself.
Hua Fei snorted coldly and pushed Song Zhi's hand away. "On my side? Would you treat me like this if you were on my side? I specially asked the kitchen to cook his favorite venison and prepared the new tribute of Longjing before the rain this year. But he refused to even offer me a cup of hot tea and just walked away! Does he really think that my Yikun Palace is a place of trouble and he should avoid it as much as possible?"
"Your Majesty, don't think too much. The Emperor is very busy..."
"Busy with affairs of state? Just because he is busy with affairs of state, can he leave me here? Just because he is busy with affairs of state, can he just throw our Nian family's reputation on the ground and trample on it? Songzhi, go and check for me! Which vixen's palace did the emperor visit today!" Hua Fei was furious. She grabbed Songzhi's arm, her sharp nails almost digging into her flesh.
Songzhi gasped in pain, but dared not cry out. She could only endure the pain and whispered, "Yes, Madam, I will go check it out right away. Please calm down first and be careful not to hurt yourself..."
"What are you still standing there for? Go quickly!" Concubine Hua roared, scaring Songzhi so much that she ran out crawling.
On this side, Concubine Hua was furious in the Yiku Palace, while on the other side, Yinzhen had already returned to the Yangxin Palace.
As soon as he sat down, he saw Su Peisheng walking in cautiously with a bowl of black medicine.
"Your Majesty, this is the calming soup that the imperial physician has just prepared. Please drink it while it's hot." Su Peisheng leaned forward and gently placed the soup on the table.
Yinzhen frowned and said unhappily, "Why should I drink the tranquilizing soup when I am not sick? Take it away!"
"Your Majesty, you haven't been sleeping well these past few days, and you always wake up in the middle of the night. The imperial physician said..."
"I said don't use it, so take it away!" Yinzhen interrupted Su Peisheng impatiently, with a barely perceptible hint of annoyance in his tone.
Since he ascended the throne, his temper has become more and more violent, and his previous forbearance and his character of not changing even when faced with a catastrophe are gone.
Su Peisheng was so frightened that he trembled, quickly picked up the medicine and left. He knew in his heart that the emperor's anger was not directed at this bowl of medicine.
