Chapter 287: Dancing on the palm, flower viewing banquet begins
"I am the mother of a country, so I must be dignified and virtuous, and set a good example for women all over the world."
The Queen did not indulge Hua Fei and directly used her position as Queen to suppress Hua Fei.
After all, no matter how arrogant Concubine Hua is, she is still a concubine in terms of title. To put it nicely, she is Concubine Hua, but to put it bluntly, she is a concubine.
No matter how reluctant she was, she had to pay her respects to her because she was the queen.
"You've been coming to Jingren Palace quite often recently. Why don't you stay in Suiyuxuan to accompany Concubine Wan?"
The Queen looked at Chun Changzai who was eating snacks with her head down and asked with a smile.
"Aren't you always the one who loves to stick to your sister Wan the most?"
"My Queen, I like Concubine Wan because she can protect me, but now I realize that in this harem, only the Queen is the one I can rely on the most."
Chun Chang-jae pretended to be innocent and naive and looked at the queen and spoke.
During this period, Zhen Huan was severely suppressed by Concubine Hua, and the Emperor was not in the palace. For a time, the entire share of Sui Yuxuan was deducted, and everyone's life became difficult.
In addition, Concubine Hui is also ill now, so Zhen Huan focuses more on Sister Mei and naturally neglects her younger sister Chun'er. She did not notice Chun'er's predicament at the first time, allowing the Queen to seize the opportunity to show her kindness in time, which completely makes Chun'er's heart turn to the Queen.
"You, although you are younger than most concubines, are now the emperor's proper concubine. You should stop saying such childish things."
The queen smiled and looked at Chun Changzai and said.
"The Queen is kind to me. I regard her as my own sister, so I tell her everything."
Chun'er smiled a little embarrassedly and spoke to the queen in a rather childish tone.
"Chun Changzai, I heard that you like flying kites very much. The weather is nice now. Why do you want to stay with me in Jingren Palace and waste your time?"
The queen looked at Chun'er and spoke meaningfully.
"Your Majesty, I don't quite understand what you mean."
Chun'er looked at the queen in confusion and asked.
"Just being able to fly a kite is not enough to attract the emperor. It would be best if you can dance. The emperor likes women who can dance the most."
"In ancient times, there was Zhao Feiyan who could dance on her palm. If you can dance on this kite, you will surely attract the emperor's attention. Don't you think so?"
The queen looked at Chun'er and spoke with a smile.
"But the Queen's kite is so fragile, how can people dance on it?"
Chun Er asked with some confusion.
"It has to be light enough, of course."
"Since I said so, it is naturally possible."
"But learning this dance may require you to endure some hardship. Are you willing?"
The queen looked deeply at Chun'er and asked.
"I am willing to do anything as long as I can regain the emperor's favor."
Chun'er no longer wanted to stay behind Zhen Huan and survive. When she wanted to use her, she would be thrown a bone. When she didn't want to, she would be like an unwanted stray dog, snatching leftovers from others.
Since you'd be a dog no matter who you follow, why not follow a master of higher status?
No matter how favored Zhen Huan is, she is just a noble lady. Even if the Queen is no longer favored by the Emperor, she is still the Queen. Her status and position are not comparable to Zhen Huan's.
"Okay, in that case, I'll give you this opportunity, you must seize it firmly."
The Queen looked at Chun'er with admiration and spoke.
"Don't worry, Madam. I will do my best."
Chun'er looked at the queen and said confidently.
On this side, Fu Cha Zhixi felt inexplicably uneasy after receiving the Queen's invitation to the flower-viewing banquet.
Although Lingrong is pregnant now, the Queen should not know about it. But why did the Queen still hold this flower-viewing banquet?
Or did the Queen know that Lingrong was pregnant, so this flower-viewing banquet was aimed at Lingrong's belly?
"Suqin, go to the Yanxi Palace and ask Lady An to refuse this flower viewing banquet."
Fu Cha Zhixi decided to follow her inner thoughts and asked Ling Rong to directly cancel the flower-viewing banquet.
If the Queen insisted on forcing An Lingrong to participate, it would prove that there was something wrong with the Queen's flower-viewing banquet. If she was mentally prepared, she would not fall into the trap so easily.
If the Queen doesn't mind whether An Lingrong comes or not, it means that the Queen is not here for Lingrong. In this case, it would be better for Lingrong not to go, so as to avoid accidentally hurting the baby in her belly.
"Yes, my dear, I will go right away."
Suqin was a little confused as to why the queen gave such an order, but she was not the type to ask too many questions, so she nodded and walked out.
The flower-viewing banquet soon arrived, and An Lingrong found an excuse to turn down the invitation. The Queen did not react too much, but just asked Jianqiu to come over and say a few polite words.
When Fu Cha Zhixi arrived, almost everyone else had already arrived, except Concubine Hua.
Because it was the Queen's invitation, almost all the concubines in the palace came, except Huipin who was not fully recovered yet and Lingrong who pretended to be unwell.
A group of beautiful women dressed exquisitely stand among the flowers. Such a scene is truly pleasing to the heart.
"Sister Xuanfei."
Concubine Jing took the initiative to come over and greet Fucha Zhixi.
"Sister Jingfei."
Fu Cha Zhixi also gave Concubine Jing a faint smile.
"How is Wen Yi now?"
Seeing that Concubine Jing didn't know how to start the conversation, Fu Cha Zhixi took the initiative to start the conversation.
"Thank you for your concern, sister. I can hardly hold Wen Yi anymore. This child is growing up so fast. He has grown so big in the blink of an eye. Sometimes I can't even react."
Speaking of Wen Yi, Concubine Jing's whole personality softened a little. Now that she had a cute and well-behaved child like Wen Yi by her side, she felt that her Xianfu Palace was not so lonely anymore.
"Yes, children grow up very quickly. I still remember that Fu Zhen was just a little ball when he was born, but now he is a big one. My hands become soft after holding him for a long time."
Hearing this, Fu Cha Zhixi also felt the same way. Watching a child related to her by blood grow up day by day was an experience she had never had before, and it made her marvel at the wonder of life.
She actually gave birth to a human being!
This person could actually grow up to be the same size as me.
This is really amazing.
"My dear, there are many flowers over there. Let's go and have a look."
Huanbi smiled and spoke to Zhen Huan.
"It's rare for the Queen to hold a flower viewing banquet, my lady should be happy."
When Huanbi turned around, she saw Zhen Huan's uncertain look and couldn't help but remind her in a low voice.
"Well, you're right."
"I don't know what's wrong with me lately. I'm always easily distracted and in a trance."
Zhen Huan couldn't help but frowned and spoke in confusion.
