Chapter 284 Mei Zhuang wakes up and finds out the truth behind her illness
"Yes, but today when Concubine Jing heard the news, she was stunned for a long time."
"I guess Concubine Jing didn't expect the Emperor would suddenly make her a concubine."
Zhen Huan smiled and told her what had just happened, so that the depressed Sister Mei could relax a little.
"It is indeed a bit sudden, but now that Concubine Hua is so powerful, the emperor should be worried that Concubine Xuan can't suppress Concubine Hua alone. After all, Concubine Hua has been in the palace for a long time, and Concubine Xuan's qualifications are not as good as Concubine Hua's."
Although Shen Meizhuang was ill, her mind seemed much clearer than before, and she had a clearer view of the structure of the harem.
Whether the emperor is asking himself to learn how to manage the harem or now appointing Jingpin as Jingfei, these are all measures taken by the emperor to check and balance Huafei.
However, I was unable to understand the twists and turns at the time and blindly regarded all of this as the emperor's favor and trust in me.
But I am just a concubine who has just entered the palace, or to put it bluntly, a concubine. How much can the emperor value me?
If she really valued herself, how could she allow a mere noble to go against the arrogant and domineering Concubine Hua?
She didn't believe that the emperor would not have guessed that her learning to manage the affairs of the harem would make Concubine Hua dissatisfied with her and even want to kill her.
But the emperor still did it. Perhaps he didn't even consider whether he could survive under Hua Fei's torture. It would be enough as long as there was someone who could help him check and balance Hua Fei.
If they fail, even if they are retaliated by Concubine Hua, will the emperor still be willing to fight against Nian Gengyao for the women in the harem?
She now understood clearly that the reason why Concubine Hua was favored was largely because of Nian Gengyao.
The emperor could not afford to offend Nian Gengyao, so he could only compromise. Anyway, he was not the one who had to compromise, but there were many concubines who did so.
Even if she is gone, wouldn't there be few families in the court who want to send their daughters to the palace?
"I think so too. After all, Concubine Xuan has always been too lazy to argue with others. If no one offends her, she doesn't care about other people in the harem."
Zhen Huan also spoke with emotion.
"How can such a Concubine Xuan achieve the Emperor's goal of balancing Concubine Hua?"
But the emperor still pushed her to such a high position, and although she seemed to be favored by the emperor, she was still just a small noble.
Maybe it’s because of the Sixth Prince.
Zhen Huan was not willing to admit that she was not as important as Concubine Xuan in the Emperor's heart, so she subconsciously attributed everything to the child.
If she could get pregnant, the emperor would certainly be willing to make her a concubine.
When Zhen Huan thought of this, she couldn't help but reach out and touch her lower abdomen.
Seeing this, Shen Meizhuang sighed slightly in her heart.
Now she has freed herself from the emperor's illusory favor, but Huan'er is still trapped in it.
"By the way, the emperor will be out of the palace for a while because of the students boycotting the exam in Henan."
"Without the Emperor above Concubine Hua, it may be difficult for the Empress to suppress Concubine Hua alone. Sister Mei, you are just getting better now, so you must be careful."
Zhen Huan was worried that after Concubine Hua took action against her, she would look for an opportunity to take action against Sister Mei.
After all, Sister Mei is recovering now. If Concubine Hua wants to attack Sister Mei, she can blame it all on the epidemic and let Sister Mei die.
"Don't worry, I don't leave my house now, so I don't think Hua Fei will pay any attention to me. What's more, Jingpin has been named Jingfei, so I think the one Hua Fei hates the most is Jingfei."
Shen Meizhuang knew very well that Concubine Hua probably wouldn't remember her at the moment, but she had to be on guard.
After all, besides Concubine Hua, there may be other people in the palace who have bad intentions.
She really had to be careful. After all, although she no longer craved the emperor's favor, it didn't mean that she didn't want to live.
She was still waiting to see what would happen to Concubine Hua after Nian Gengyao's downfall.
"But don't worry, I know what's going on. Plus, the doctor who's taking care of me is Doctor Wen. With him around, you don't have to worry."
When talking about Wen Shichu, Mei Zhuang couldn't help but smile slightly.
Wen Shichu could be considered her savior. If it weren't for Doctor Wen's careful care, she might not have survived.
If Doctor Wen hadn't discovered that there was something wrong with the teacup, I would probably have died long ago.
Unexpectedly, Concubine Hua was so meticulous. She did not directly change the teacup she drank water from. Instead, she first brewed the teacup used by the person suffering from the plague before bringing it to her.
After drinking the tea that contained the epidemic and being ordered around by Concubine Hua, she was exhausted every day. As a result, she was naturally infected with the epidemic very quickly, and her condition was even more serious than that of ordinary people.
Even with the prescription developed by Imperial Doctors Lin and An, her condition was not suppressed. If it weren't for Imperial Doctor Wen's superb medical skills and meticulous thinking to help find the traitor, she would probably have died in this epidemic.
However, she didn't want to tell Huan'er about these things for the time being, just as Huan'er would not tell her that her father had been demoted.
They were all reluctant to tell each other about such things. After all, it would do nothing other than make the other party worry and annoyed. It would be better to keep these things secret.
"Master Wen is here, and I haven't thanked you properly for taking care of my sister during this period of time."
When Zhen Huan turned around, she saw Doctor Wen walking in with a medicine box. She quickly smiled and spoke.
"I dare not take credit for this. These are all the contributions of the wise men in the Imperial Hospital. I have only done my bit."
Wen Shichu's eyes lit up when he saw Zhen Huan. Huan looked a little haggard, which made him feel more worried.
"Doctor Wen is a very skilled doctor. My sister was able to recover so quickly. You deserve a lot of credit. Don't be so modest."
Zhen Huan smiled and looked at Doctor Wen and said.
Doctor Wen nodded somewhat embarrassedly, then without further ado, he walked straight to the bedside, placed the pulse pillow on it, and carefully took Huipin's pulse.
"Lord Wen came in without informing me. This is really rude of me."
Shen Meizhuang looked at Wen Shichu and spoke a little embarrassedly.
"Sister, although you are weak now, your appearance is still as beautiful as ever. You can even be called a sick beauty."
Zhen Huan teased with a smile.
This blocked the words of comfort that Wen Shichu was about to say.
