Chapter 125: Happy Fragrance, 1 Arrow 3 Kills
"Songzhi, the emperor punished me for Zhen Huan. Does that mean I am no longer in his heart?"
Hua Fei leaned against the wall somewhat hopelessly, her eyes filled with deep despair.
She could not accept that one day she would no longer be favored by the emperor. If such a day really came, it would be better for her to die now.
She would rather die than lose the emperor's love.
"My lady, how could that be possible?"
"The Emperor cares the most about you, Madam. You are the only one who owns Huan Yi Xiang. No one has even heard of the so-called Concubine Wan."
Seeing Concubine Hua so sad, Songzhi wanted to say something to comfort her, but she didn't know what to say for a moment.
Suddenly, she noticed the smoke rising from the incense burner not far away, and she quickly spoke to comfort him with the Huan Yi incense.
"Yes, the emperor must have me in his heart."
"This Huan Yi Xiang was given to me by the Emperor alone. No one else has it."
When Concubine Hua heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up.
She stumbled to her feet, walked to the incense burner, sniffed the scent of the Huanyi incense, and immediately her frown relaxed.
This fragrance is proof that the emperor cares about me.
"Yes, my lady, please don't think too much."
"The emperor must value you the most in his heart, otherwise, if it were someone else, how could the emperor let it go so easily?"
"Besides, even though the emperor has confined the queen, it doesn't mean that others can't go out."
"Your Majesty, wait for some time, and when this matter has calmed down, write a letter to the Emperor to admit your fault. If the Emperor relents, he will surely let you go."
Songzhi hurriedly supported Concubine Hua, carefully avoiding the debris on the ground, and helped her sit down on the couch.
"You are right. The emperor will not really have the heart to lock me up for a month. I am sure that he will let me go after a while."
Concubine Hua nodded repeatedly, agreeing with what Songzhi said.
Broken Yuxuan
"Huan'er, have you heard?"
"This Concubine Hua was actually confined by the Emperor. I heard from the palace servants that a lot of porcelain was broken in the Yikun Palace."
When Shen Meizhuang heard the news, she didn't care about anything else and ran to Shui Yuxuan excitedly.
"Yes, Sister Mei."
"I thought Concubine Hua would not be punished this time, but she was actually confined for a month."
"Although it's not a severe punishment, it's still a punishment."
"We have spent so much time and effort, and finally the effort has paid off."
"I thought the emperor would be the same this time as before."
As she spoke, Zhen Huan realized that it seemed inappropriate to say this in front of Sister Mei, and she immediately lowered her head in embarrassment.
She naturally thought that the emperor decided to punish Concubine Hua after returning because of what she said that day.
This made her even more certain that the emperor really had her in his heart, and that her importance was even greater than that of Sister Mei.
Although it is not a good idea to think this way, there is no one who does not want to be the most important person in the heart of the person he loves.
"What's there to be embarrassed about? The emperor values you, and I am happy too."
"Besides, if the emperor didn't value you so much, he wouldn't have taken any real action against Concubine Hua."
Shen Meizhuang was indeed feeling a little aggrieved. After all, she almost lost her life last time when she fell into the water. However, the Emperor pretended to be ignorant and did not punish Concubine Hua at all.
This time, Huan'er was also harmed by Concubine Hua, but the Emperor punished her.
But the hatred in her heart for Concubine Hua outweighed this little bit of injustice. Compared to these petty comparisons, what she wanted to see most was that Concubine Hua would be truly punished.
This shows that Concubine Hua’s position in the emperor’s heart is not indestructible.
"Huan'er, do you know? This is the first time that Concubine Hua has been punished by the Emperor in all the years she has served him."
"This is like the arrow that Duke Zhuang of Zheng shot at the King of Zhou. It means that Concubine Hua is not as unshakable as we thought."
"As long as we find the right method, we can pull her down from the altar."
Shen Meizhuang stared at Zhen Huan with fiery eyes and said.
"That's right, Sister Mei."
"As long as the two of us sisters work together, we can definitely bring Concubine Hua down."
Zhen Huan reached out and held Shen Meizhuang's hand, nodded in agreement.
Cheng Qiangong
"Sister, have you heard?"
"Hua Fei is under house arrest."
The first thing An Lingrong did when she heard the news was to rush to Chengqian Palace.
"You walked so fast, your head is all sweaty, drink some tea and slow down."
Fu Cha Zhixi naturally knew about this matter a long time ago, so she was not in a hurry to ask An Lingrong.
Instead, he poured a cup of tea for An Lingrong and placed it in front of her. He then took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from her forehead with concern.
"My sister is so nice to me."
An Lingrong looked at her sister with a smile, picked up the tea placed in front of her and took a sip.
After he felt his throat was no longer so dry, he took a deep breath and looked at his sister and said.
"Sister, you don't know. I thought the matter was over."
"I didn't expect the emperor would actually punish Concubine Hua. Even though it was just house arrest, it's already very rare."
An Lingrong looked at Fu Cha Zhixi with some excitement and said.
"The Emperor really values Lady Wan."
"Before, Concubine Shen almost lost her life, but the emperor didn't react much. But now it's Concubine Wan's turn, it's different."
An Lingrong couldn't help but shook her head. This emperor was too partial.
"Perhaps the Emperor feels that Concubine Hua has gone too far. After all, this time the commotion is much bigger than the last time."
"Besides, this is not the first time that Concubine Hua has done such a thing. Maybe the Emperor is settling old and new scores at the same time."
Fu Cha Zhixi didn't quite agree with An Lingrong's words. She had a vague guess in her heart that the emperor did this because of her.
No, to be precise, it was because of the Fucha family behind him.
His third brother is still following Nian Gengyao to fight in the northwest, and his father is also following the emperor's footsteps in the court.
Moreover, before issuing the decree to Concubine Hua, Su Peisheng also brought over a phoenix pendant, which was obviously the emperor's way of comforting herself.
She guessed that the emperor had probably discovered the trick, but he didn't want to make things worse, so he sent the jade pendant in the hope that she would stop.
Dealing with Concubine Hua can be considered as giving an explanation to the Fucha family. After all, it is easy to find out that it was Concubine Hua who did it.
But whether she is actually Concubine Hua or not, perhaps it is not important to the emperor.
In this way, their Fucha clan would inevitably confront the Nian family, and at the same time, it would also eliminate the possibility of her third brother colluding with Nian Gengyao.
Killing three birds with one stone. The emperor is worthy of being the emperor. He will never do business at a loss.
