TV Series: When the Villain Chooses to Stand by

Chapter 149

After being treated by the imperial physician, Concubine Hua finally regained consciousness.

"How are you? Are you feeling better? Are you still feeling unwell?" The emperor came forward, held Hua Fei's hand and expressed his concern.

Hua Fei quickly pulled her hand back, covered her chest, and coughed a few times, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am fine."

The imperial physician also said that all he needed to do was rest well.

The emperor finally had time to ask what had happened. Besides anger, there was also a hint of impatience on his face.

There was chaos just now, but now that Concubine Hua is no longer in danger of her life, conspiracy theories began to come to the emperor's mind.

The Yiku Palace is heavily guarded, and Concubine Hua is not the kind of person who likes to pretend to be cultured.

It's good enough that she doesn't mind that the carp is unpalatable, but why does she watch it in the middle of the night?

Was this incident staged by Concubine Hua herself, trying to frame someone in order to win favor? Such things are not uncommon.

If it is true, I don’t know whether Hua Fei did it cleanly. It will be a headache if I have to clean up the mess for her later.

Upon learning that everything was an accident, the emperor was shocked and immediately wanted to deal with the palace maids who followed Concubine Hua.

"If you don't even care about your master's safety, what use are you?"

"emperor!"

"I beg your Majesty to forgive me. It was all my impulse. How could they stop me? Please have mercy and don't punish them."

Looking at Concubine Hua's sickly plea, the emperor felt very guilty for his previous guess.

How could such a straightforward and generous Nian Shilan do such a thing? Even if he did something out of line, it was because he cared too much about himself.

"Well, I'll just fine you one month's salary."

Amidst the sounds of thanks from the audience, the two looked at each other affectionately.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Hua has been injured this time and needs to be properly nursed back to health."

Doctor Shen's words broke the warm atmosphere, and the emperor gave him a dissatisfied look.

He knew that this man had some abilities. It was thanks to him that the plague in the southwest was contained. However, he was stubborn and inflexible, and he didn't even have good eyesight.

However, the emperor has always been more tolerant of talented people, and he just pursed his lips and did not scold him.

He turned around to comfort Concubine Hua, "You should have a good rest. I will come to see you tomorrow!"

After seeing everyone off, Concubine Hua turned over and sat up.

"Songzhi, hurry up and serve the dinner. I'm starving because of this play."

Songzhi knew at a glance that Concubine Hua was fine, and she went out with a smile to prepare the meal.

Eating the soft, glutinous and tender crystal pork elbow, Concubine Hua finally felt like she was alive again. "Luckily you rescued me in time. Falling into the water is really scary."

"Songzhi, the people who serve me will be rewarded three times their salary."

"Don't worry, Madam. I will make all the arrangements. Now you can finally have a good rest."

"Yes, it's finally quiet."

Concubine Hua was ill and needed to recuperate, and Zhen Huan's favor returned to the palace. Other newcomers were also favored, but they were far less favored than her.

That day, An Lingrong came to see Zhen Huan with a newly embroidered round fan, and happened to meet Shen Meiyu in Sui Yuxuan.

"Sister Mei is here too, what a coincidence! It saves me from making another trip."

"Lingrong, come quickly. What good things have you brought us?"

After taking the box handed over by Baojuan, they opened it on the spot.

The fan given to Zhen Huan was an ivory-handled round fan embroidered with pomegranates, cats and butterflies, while the one given to Shen Meizhuang was embroidered with chrysanthemums and parrots, and the handle was made of rosewood.

It was obvious that this gift was carefully thought out. Zhen Huan fiddled with the fan pendant underneath and kept praising it.

"Lingrong's craftsmanship is truly excellent. It must have taken a lot of effort to embroider something so exquisitely."

Although Zhen Huan is afraid of cats, she likes this cute style very much.

Shen Meizhuang picked it up and looked at it carefully. She also liked this gift very much and directly handed the original fan to Caiyue.

"Yes, the embroidery is so lifelike. Looking at it this way, the things we gave you look so tacky!"

Seeing that they liked An Lingrong, she was also happy. "My two sisters treat me so well. I don't have anything good to offer. I can only ask for help."

"This isn't even a good thing. Lingrong's standards are really getting higher and higher now!"

"My sister is making fun of me again!"

Zhen Huan's teasing made An Lingrong's ears turn red quickly.

Her relationship with Xia Dongchun is a completely different one, and both of them occupy an extremely important position in her heart.

"When the weather gets warmer in a few days, we will go to the Old Summer Palace. I heard that the scenery there is particularly beautiful."

"How about we go boating together on the lake then?"

……

The three of them had a tacit understanding when they were together. They never mentioned the emperor and only talked about daily interesting things.

"What are the sisters talking about? I can hear their laughter outside, it's so lively!"

Just as they were discussing what to bring to the garden, Chun'er's voice suddenly came from outside.

The palace maid behind her was carrying a large box, and wisps of cool air came out through the gaps.

"Sister Wan's place is really lively. I was really bored staying alone, so I heard the noise and came over uninvited with some iced fruits."

"Isn't it disturbing you?"

"We are just sisters sitting together and talking, there is nothing wrong with interrupting."

Zhen Huan pulled Chun'er to sit next to her, not noticing that the smile on An Lingrong's face had become much more forced.

As soon as Chun'er entered the room, she saw the round fan in Zhen Huan's hand, and seeing the box next to it, she immediately guessed that it was sent by An Lingrong.

She picked up Zhen Huan's fan with an innocent look and looked at it.

"The embroidery is indeed exquisite, but the people below are so reckless. Don't they know that Sister Wan is afraid of cats?"

"Sister, you can't let such a careless and reckless palace maid off easily."

For the first time, Zhen Huan's words were blocked in her stomach, and she nodded towards An Lingrong with an apologetic look on her face.

That look seemed to want to explain something, but nothing came out.

An Lingrong smiled indifferently and didn't take the matter to heart.

She had long noticed Chun Changzai's hostility, a kind of disdain without any reason.

Faced with these malicious gazes, An Lingrong had long learned not to care. Such a mentality would not get her far in the harem.

She leaned over and told Shen Meizhuang about the interesting things that happened in the Yanx Palace.

I don’t know when it started, but keeping small animals in the harem became a new trend.

Noble Lady Fucha naturally refused to be outdone and had a black and white dumpling selected from Sichuan and sent to the palace.

"Sister Mei, if you have time, go take a look. That iron-eating beast is so cute and adorable!"

"She's so small, she'll hug people's legs and act like a spoiled brat, and when it rains she'll curl up in a tree."

"It looks just like a sesame-filled glutinous rice ball. Just looking at it makes my heart melt."

Shen Meizhuang also became interested, "She's so cute! I must take a good look at her when I get back."

"Bring some apples when you go, sister, you'll have an unexpected reward!"
