The Legend of Zhen Huan: Entering the Palace to Become the Queen Mother

Chapter 161: Concubine Duan appears with sinister intentions

"Yes, Sister Zhen, I felt something was wrong at the time. Concubine Cao has always been close to Concubine Hua, so how could she suddenly get together with Concubine Xin?"

An Lingrong spoke.

"But these are just my guesses. For details, we still need to ask a trustworthy doctor to take a good look at Sister Shen first."

"you're right."

Zhen Huan nodded in agreement.

"But for now, the only imperial physician we can trust in the palace is Imperial Physician Wen Shichu. But Imperial Physician Wen has gone out of the palace and won't be back for a while."

Zhen Huan said with some distress.

"When did Doctor Wen leave the palace?"

An Lingrong suddenly realized that something was wrong and asked with a frown.

"It seems that he went there shortly before the banquet."

Zhen Huan turned to look at Liuzhu with some uncertainty.

"Yes, that's right, my lady. Doctor Wen left the palace before the banquet."

Liuzhu nodded very firmly.

"Could it be that they planned for Doctor Wen to leave the palace in advance, just to make sure that there is no trustworthy doctor around us two? In this way, if a doctor who seems to have a clean background appears, it will be easier for us to trust him."

The more Zhen Huan spoke, the more frightened she became. If this was true, then Concubine Hua's methods were far too cruel.

"Sister Mei, this."

Zhen Huan didn't know what to say and looked at Shen Meizhuang with concern.

"No problem. I have long known how vicious Concubine Hua is. Discovering these things now only proves that her methods have become more sophisticated."

Shen Meizhuang changed her previous loss and cheered up again. Now was not the time to be sad. She had to find a way to solve this problem as soon as possible.

"I don't think so. Hua Fei's methods are indeed cruel, but this time the method is not something Hua Fei can use."

An Lingrong shook her head. She didn't think that Concubine Hua had the brains to design such a meticulous plan.

"That's right. Concubine Hua's methods are really not that sophisticated. She just relies on her power and status to oppress other concubines who are not as good as her."

"This scheme was designed with almost all factors in mind, even Imperial Doctor Wen was included in the plan. This shows how meticulous the person behind this is."

Shen Meizhuang said with disgust in her eyes.

"In that case, it can only be Concubine Cao."

"The only capable person left by Concubine Hua's side is Concubine Cao. Concubine Cao only said a few simple words to arouse the emperor's suspicion of me, so it is very likely that she is the mastermind behind this plot."

Zhen Huan thought for a moment and then began to analyze.

"It's all my fault. When she insisted on dragging us to the banquet, I should have thought that Concubine Cao would never come to the palace unless there was something important. How could she invite us so suddenly?"

Zhen Huan said with some annoyance.

"Huan'er, how can you be blamed for this? At that time, no one knew that Concubine Cao was secretly plotting these conspiracies. Concubine Cao was so humble to invite us to the banquet. As concubines in the palace, we can't just offend her so directly."

Seeing this, Shen Meizhuang quickly spoke to comfort her.

"Okay, two sisters, stop blaming each other for this matter."

"What's wrong with us being victims? It's all Hua Fei and the others' fault. They have evil intentions. How can you blame us?"

An Lingrong said with a smile.

"Lingrong is right, Huan'er, don't think like that."

"Now at least with Ling Rong's reminder, we are prepared for this matter. No matter what the other party wants to do, we won't be caught off guard."

Shen Meizhuang looked at An Lingrong with gratitude and said.

"This matter really all depends on Lingrong's carefulness, otherwise we would have really been tricked and we wouldn't even know what happened."

Zhen Huan also looked at An Lingrong with gratitude, and couldn't help but touch her chest.

After the three of them discussed the matter again, Sister Mei finally decided to ask her family for help and ask them to help find a reliable and trustworthy doctor.

After confirming whether you are pregnant, you can make plans for the future based on this.

In fact, An Lingrong told Zhen Huan and Shen Meiyu about this matter, firstly because of the friendship between them, and secondly because she wanted to use this matter to attract the attention of the entire harem so that her sister could prepare for the birth of her child with peace of mind.

She would naturally not refuse something that could kill two birds with one stone. After all, she was just expressing her own guesses.

Soon it was time for Wen Yi's first birthday party, and the garden was exceptionally lively. Not only did the concubines from the harem attend, but the royal family also came with their wives. For a moment, the banquet was extremely grand.

Fu Cha Zhixi is about to give birth, so naturally she will not attend the one-year-old birthday party. She asks Su Qin to find a pair of golden unicorns from the warehouse and send them to Princess Wen Yi as a gift.

As for the Queen, she really wanted to use this banquet to call Fucha Zhixi out of her tortoise shell.

After all, Wufutang had Madam Fucha in charge, together with Aunt Fangqiu and Eunuch Chai, one guarding the inside and the other guarding the outside, and they surrounded the entire courtyard like an iron barrel. The queen tried several times but failed every time, and finally had to give up in disappointment.

The Queen originally wanted to use some means to force Fu Cha Zhixi to come out to the banquet, but Fu Cha Zhixi had already made preparations in advance. Before the banquet began, she informed the Emperor in advance that she was not feeling well and decided not to attend the banquet.

Helplessly, under the verbal coercion and inducement of Jianqiu, Fu Cha Zhixi directly brought up the emperor, and the other party had to give up.

When the Queen saw Jianqiu coming back alone, she knew that he must have failed. She felt a little annoyed, but thinking about the foreshadowing she had laid in advance, she was able to put her mind at ease.

As for the other concubines, they all knew that Fucha Zhixi was about to give birth, so they naturally thought that she would not be present.

When Concubine Cao saw the disappointed expression on Jianqiu's face, she keenly realized that the other party was probably going to call Xiangpin, but it seemed that she had failed.

Concubine Cao did not want the other party to come to the banquet. After all, the protagonist of this banquet was someone else, and she did not want an unknown factor to affect her entire plan.

After the opening singing and dancing heated up the atmosphere of the banquet, Concubine Duan was finally helped in by her personal palace maid.

Concubine Duan's eyes swept through the banquet, especially the new concubines, and she soon noticed Zhen Huan's presence.

Her eyes flickered, and she said in an ambiguous tone, "Your Majesty is so lucky. These are the new sisters who have entered the palace. They all have extraordinary temperaments."

Zhen Huan naturally also noticed the slightly stagnant gaze of Concubine Duan on her face, and she felt a little strange.

But when she wanted to investigate more carefully, the other party had already withdrawn his gaze.
