Comprehensive film and television: The favorite concubine is in power

Chapter 288: Guar Jia Wen Yuan 17

Yinzhen looked at her with serious eyes, and his expression was not as usual. Anyone with a discerning eye could see the emperor's suspicion.

No matter how long she had served the emperor, An Lingrong always felt timid in front of him. Now that he was looking at her, cold sweat had soaked her clothes.

An Lingrong knelt down and pleaded guilty: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. It's just that I thought the matter was not clear at the time. If I rashly presented it to you, I'm afraid it would be a joke. So I'll let the Empress investigate and tell Your Majesty when I have confirmed the news."

Yixiu also said: "Your Majesty, I thought that there was insufficient evidence in this matter, so I asked someone to investigate it and then report it to you."

After they said that, Yinzhen didn't keep harping on the matter. He waved his hand and ordered, "Go on."

Yixiu and An Lingrong then continued to explain the matter clearly, with the Queen adding a few words from time to time, trying to take this opportunity to completely suppress Zhen Huan.

"Your Majesty, the ylang-ylang flowers that I use in my palace are known to many people in the palace. If I really wanted to use this to win your favor, I shouldn't have made a big fuss about it and let everyone know about it."

"And the ylang-ylang flower has always been known to calm the mind and concentrate the spirit. I was not in a good mood at the time, so Doctor Wen asked me to borrow the ylang-ylang flower to achieve the effect of calming the mind. I have never known how to use incense, so how could I have thought that the ylang-ylang flower had such an effect?"

Zhen Huan looked at Yin Zhen, her eyes full of true love, and silently shed tears and said: "I already know that I was wrong in the beginning. I was pregnant at the time. How could I use my child's life to seek the emperor's favor? Your Majesty, please believe me, I am not that kind of person."

Having been with Zhen Huan for such a long time, Yinzhen still had some understanding of her personality, so he looked at her and said, "I know what kind of person Wanpin is. I have always been clear about it."

An Lingrong just whispered: "It's just that Concubine Qi was deeply favored by the emperor at that time, so it's possible that sister couldn't get over it for a while."

Yinzhen frowned slightly, wondering why Wen Yuan was involved in this matter.

"Anpin, since you are talking about the matter between me and Wanpin, please don't involve other innocent people."

An Lingrong froze for a moment, then looked at Zhen Huan subtly. Look, the emperor liked you back then, and now he can like someone else, not to mention someone who was promoted from a noble lady to a concubine within a year.

Compared with the Concubine Wan back then, she is even worse.

Zhen Huan had an indifferent expression, and her eyes looked at An Lingrong coldly, as if there was a frost of ten thousand years in them, which made An Lingrong feel cold all over.

Zhen Huan turned to look at An Lingrong and said, "Lingrong, we have been sisters for many years. You and I entered the palace together that day, but I didn't expect it would be like this today."

Yinzhen leaned on the cushion and watched the scene in the hall coldly.

He knew that there were factional struggles in the palace. In the past, there were the Queen's party, Se-ran's party, and Huan-huan's party. Now that Se-ran has left, the Queen can't wait to take action against others.

He closed his eyes and felt extremely upset. They quarreled endlessly, insisting that what happened that day was not done by Wanpin. However, Yinzhen was still a little disappointed.

This matter concerns the emperor's health, and Yixiu clearly wants to make a big deal out of it and put all the blame on Zhen Huan, but Zhen Huan keeps saying that she is innocent and tries to find loopholes in their words.

The situation was at a stalemate, so Yinzhen asked Su Peisheng to investigate and make a decision after the matter was thoroughly investigated.

After finally leaving Jingren Palace, Zhen Huan frowned and hoped that Yu Su Peisheng could get to the bottom of the matter. She asked Xiao Yunzi to keep an eye on everyone in the palace and not let any dirty people get in.

Shen Meizhuang hurried over, looked at Zhen Huan and held her hand worriedly: "Huan'er!"

She could not hide her anxiety, her brows were tightly furrowed, and a hint of sharpness appeared on her dignified and beautiful face.

"Is it Lingrong?"

Zhen Huan nodded absentmindedly and sighed softly, "Yes, Ling Rong had already been the Queen's person before we knew it."

"Great! So it was An Lingrong who made the scar-removing glue, right?! Imperial Doctor Wen told me at the time that he was afraid of scarring you, and he planned to wait until you were out of confinement before doing it, but I didn't expect..."

Zhen Huan opened her eyes slightly: "What?"

She seemed a little bit unbelievable. She didn't expect that An Lingrong had already taken action against her so long ago.

Shen Meizhuang hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell Zhen Huan, "That day, Doctor Wen only said that there was something in the scar-removing glue, but he didn't say it clearly. It was just that I saw that you had such an accident that day, so I went to ask him about it. I didn't expect that there was a lot of musk in it, which was mixed in the ointment and could not be seen at all."

Zhen Huan couldn't believe it. She never expected that An Lingrong had already started to attack her at that time. Then why did she tell her that the pastries sent by Concubine Qi were different? Why did she plead for her in Yikun Palace that day?

So... it was all fake? She had been secretly at odds with her for a long time, why... why didn't she say anything?

Instead, she didn't even notice that the sisters around her had changed their faces.

Zhen Huan suddenly felt sick in her chest. Shen Meizhuang was so shocked that she stood up and patted her back, asking worriedly, "Huan'er? Huan'er, are you okay?!"

"She...really disgusts me!"

Zhen Huan recalled the moments she had spent with An Lingrong. After she regained her favor, An Lingrong even used her own blood as medicine. It turned out that she did all this to show her, and secretly she had already been loyal to the Queen.

Zhen Huan was distraught for a while, but it was a good thing that this incident allowed her to see a person clearly.

Looking at her appearance, Shen Meizhuang said softly: "This is good. This way we can see her clearly and know who we should be on guard against."

"Now that I think about it, I actually feel that she was so good at disguising herself that I couldn't see through her at all."

What kind of character does such a person have? Zhen Huan didn't dare to think about it, nor did she want to guess.

Shen Meizhuang comforted her, "It's fine now. We just won't have any contact with her in the future."

Zhen Huan looked at Shen Meizhuang, "This situation really chills my heart, Sister Mei, now the only people I can trust in the palace are you and Concubine Jing."

Concubine Jing has a relationship of interest with them, but no matter how strong it is, it can never compare to the affection between Shen Meizhuang and her.

"Yes, we two can at least come up with a solution together." Shen Meizhuang nodded and looked at Zhen Huan and asked the purpose of her visit today: "Huan'er, I have already understood the matter with Concubine Jing. Was the incident that day really planned by Lingrong?"

Zhen Huan recalled and nodded, "There would be no one else except her. She is an expert in spices and she mentioned the ylang-ylang flower that day. I can't think of anyone else except her."
