The Empress Arrives: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 201 The Concubine Hua Arrives
The palace maids of Yonghe Palace received an order from Empress Dowager De and brought out a red envelope to present to Princess Kangle, expressing their deepest apologies.

"The Queen Mother is not feeling well and is afraid that her illness will spread to the princess. The Queen Mother said that she hopes the princess will be healthy, safe and happy."

Jingguiren thanked him for his kindness and said.

"On behalf of the princess, I thank the Queen Mother for her grace. I hope the Queen Mother will be healthy and happy."

After saying this, he turned around and planned to take the princess back to the palace. After being out for so long, the little baby was already a little sleepy.

He had only taken a few steps when two young men in gorgeous clothes came towards him.

Only after a careful look did Lady Jing realize that they were the Fourteenth Prince Yunti and the Seventeenth Prince Yunli.

The Fourteenth Prince was born to Empress Dowager De and was a full brother of Yinzhen from the same mother. However, Yinzhen thought that he was still young and it was not appropriate for him to live in a separate household too early, so he was still raised in the residence of the princes.

When Yunli saw Jing Guiren, he had no intention of paying any attention to her, but Yunli had already bowed his hands in greeting.

"Yun Li greets Lady Jing. Did Lady Jing just come out from the Empress Dowager's place?"

The noble man returned the gift and smiled.

"I brought Princess Kangle to pay New Year's greetings to the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother was unwell, so I was about to take the princess back to the palace."

When Yunzhi heard this, he stretched his neck to look at the princess in the wet nurse's arms. The wet nurse hurriedly showed the princess's little face to the Fourteenth Prince.

"So this is the girl my mother was talking about. She has a fair and tender face."

As he spoke, he reached out to pinch the princess's face. The seven-month-old baby saw the person in front of him reaching out his hand and thought that the person was teasing her. As soon as she smiled, she was pinched by Yunli. She felt pain instantly and started crying with a pouty mouth.

Jing Guiren was already unhappy when she heard him speak, but she didn't expect that he would reach out and pinch the princess's face. Even though Yunli quickly slapped his hand away, the princess's face was still pinched red.

"Brother Fourteen! Why did you hit her so hard? She's just a baby!"

Yunli could not help but utter angrily, and Concubine Jing hurriedly hugged the princess to comfort her. Seeing the princess in her arms with half of her face flushed, Concubine Jing wanted to beat Yunli severely.

Yunzhi saw the princess crying and chuckled.

"This little girl has such a tender face, and her voice is quite loud when she cries."

Then he turned around and scolded Yunli.

"I am your elder brother, and you yell at me. Is this what your mother, Concubine Shu, taught you?"

Yunli was a child at heart, and he fought with Yunzhi. The young eunuchs who followed them also started fighting. There were also those who liked to watch the fun and practiced Taiping boxing for fun.

It was not until the guards patrolling near Yonghe Palace heard the noise and rushed over that they pulled Yunli away from Yunzhi, who was riding on him and punching and kicking him.

Yunli was still calling out.

"My biological brother is the Emperor! If you dare to attack me, I will ask my brother to kill you! And your damn mother! You taught you to be like this! You all deserve to die!"

The servants around were so scared that they knelt on the ground. Yunli was about to rush forward with red eyes, but was stopped by Dalek.

"Are you all dead? Go and invite the Emperor!"

Dalek scolded the guards who followed him, and one smart guard hurried to the Yangxin Palace.

Concubine Jing hurriedly asked the wet nurse to take the princess back to the palace, and sent someone to Yiku Palace.

The palace maids in Yonghe Palace heard the noise outside and had already reported it to Empress Dowager De. Empress Dowager De was so angry that she fainted.

When Yinzhen and Nian Shilan heard what had happened and rushed over, the imperial physician was already taking Empress Dowager De's pulse.

Yunzhi and Yunli were dissatisfied with each other, and if the guards had not stopped them, they would have fought again.

"The Emperor has arrived! Empress Hua has arrived!" As soon as Yinzhen and Nian Shilan stepped into the Yonghe Palace, Yunzhi broke free from the shackles of the guards and flew at Yinzhen's feet.

"Royal brother, you are finally here! Royal brother, please make the decision for me! Look, General Seventeen has beaten me like this!"

Yinzhen frowned and looked at Yunli. His face was bruised and his eyes were swollen, and the luxurious satin on his body was torn left and right.

Looking at Yunli again, I saw that except for a little redness and swelling at the corners of his eyes, there were no other injuries on his face. Apart from the wrinkles on his clothes from the fight, everything else was fine.

When Yunli saw that Yunzhi was the first to complain, he realized belatedly that the emperor was Yunzhi's biological brother, and he had the support of Empress Dowager De, so he was afraid that he would suffer.

But Yunli was really angry that Yunzhi mocked and touched a little baby. Yunli looked at Yunzhi who was kneeling at Yinzhen's feet with hatred, like an angry little leopard.

"Stand up and talk! It's not nice for a man to cry!"

Yinzhen sat down and scolded Yunli who was lying on the ground.

Yunli climbed up, wiped his snot and tears with his hands, and bowed to Yinzhen.

"I am here to pay my respects to my brother. I did not want to disturb my brother. I came here with my seventeenth brother to pay my respects to my mother. But I did not expect that my seventeenth brother would hit me after a disagreement!"

Yinzhen took the fragrant tea offered by the servant beside him and said.

"Yunli is not a reckless person, and you two have a good relationship on a daily basis. How could he hit you for no reason? You must have done something. Tell me, what happened?"

Yunyu rolled his eyes and softened his tone.

"When I saw the noble lady passing by the palace gate of my mother, I wanted to greet her when she got closer. As a younger brother, I should also respect my brother's concubine. But before I could even open my mouth, my Seventeenth Brother accused me of being disrespectful to the noble lady.

I was so angry that I responded to him, and he punched me! I know it was my fault today, and I should have greeted you as soon as I saw you, but how could Seventeenth Brother hit me, his elder brother. "

As soon as Yinzhen saw Yunli, he knew he was not telling the truth, and then he looked at Yunli's clenched fists.

"Old Seventeen, tell me what's going on."

Yunli fell to his knees and told the story of how Yunzhi had humiliated Princess Kangle and pinched her face until it turned red.

Yinzhen paused as he twisted the rosary beads, and the beads in his hand made a creaking sound. Yunli stopped talking and refused to say anything more.

Nian Shilan saw that Yunli seemed to have something else to say and knew that he had some concerns.

"Seventeen, you can say whatever you want to say in the past. If you have anything to say today, take advantage of the fact that the emperor and I are here and say it all at once. The emperor will make the final decision on right and wrong. If you don't say anything, even if you are wronged, no one will stand up for you."

Yunli raised his eyes to look at Nian Shilan. When he met her concerned eyes, the twelve-year-old boy felt a lump in his throat and started to burst into tears.

"Fourteenth brother, he even insulted my mother."

Yunli choked with sobs, Nian Shilan couldn't bear it and looked at Yinzhen.

Yinzhen put away the rosary in his hand, leaned forward, and reached out to pull Yunli's arm.

"I am sorry for wronging you, Seventeenth Brother. Stand up now. I will definitely give you justice."

Nian Shilan was extremely surprised and could not help but look at Yunli and spoke.

"Fourteenth brother is so powerful. At such a young age, he spoke rudely to the baby and even strangled her. If it weren't for Seventeenth brother's protection, would you have wanted to kill the princess?! Have you ever thought that she is the emperor's first daughter! Princess Kangle of the Qing Dynasty!"

"Hua Fei is so arrogant. How come you are not arrogant enough in Yikun Palace, and now you are also arrogant in Yonghe Palace? It is not your turn to speak here! My son is not someone you, a concubine, can reprimand!"

As soon as Empress Dowager De woke up, she heard that the Emperor and Concubine Hua had arrived. She was worried that her little son had been wronged, so she was hurriedly helped out by the servants. As soon as she came out, she heard Concubine Hua scolding Yunzhi.

How could Empress Dowager De tolerate this!
