The Empress Arrives: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 364: An San Gets Beaten
Xiao Linzi said.

"Master, there is one more thing. Li Ke said that the Seventeenth Master fell off his horse that day.

The servant sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs to report the matter is estimated to be related to Qixiang Palace. "

Xiao Linzi told Nian Shilan about what happened when An San followed the servant that day.

Nian Shilan asked.

"Li Ke didn't follow?"

Xiao Linzi scratched his head and said.

"Li Ke said that a patrolling group of guards happened to come over at that time, so he hid himself first.

After that, the eunuch was never seen again. "

Nian Shilan turned around and looked at Xiao Linzi and said.

"Go and find Li Ke. I think he has been eating too well these days and has forgotten everything he was taught in the Dark Guard Camp."

Xiao Linzi responded and immediately ran to find Li Ke.

Xiao Linzi said silently in his heart, Master, you just wish yourself good luck.

When An San received the order and appeared in front of Nian Shilan, Nian Shilan was standing in the courtyard of Yikun Palace, playing with a soft whip.

Seeing An San kneeling in front of her, Nian Shilan suddenly swung out the whip.

The whip went straight for An San's face. After An San's brain reacted, he immediately retracted his killing move and changed from offense to defense, dodging in a rather embarrassing way.

"Your Majesty, please calm down! I am late! Your Majesty, you will not kill me!

Ouch! It hurts! Madam, please calm down! "

Nian Shilan sneered.

"How dare you hide!"

Upon hearing this, An San curled up his body and rolled on the ground like a ball of meat, ready to be whipped.

This action made Nian Shilan laugh in anger. She withdrew her hand and threw the whip to Xiao Linzi who had already hidden far away.

Xiao Linzi took the whip thrown by Nian Shilan and watched with glee as An San was hit twice with two whips.

The resentful An San met Xiao Linzi's eyes. The sharpness that flashed across his eyes scared Xiao Linzi so much that he quickly ran back to Nian Shilan.

"Master, calm down!"

Nian Shilan clapped her hands, dusted her clothes elegantly, and spoke lightly to An San who was kneeling on the ground.

"Do you know why I hit you?"

An San thought for a long time, wondering if it was because he was greedy and ate too many delicacies?
The Yikun Palace is so big, there shouldn’t be any shortage of food for me, right?
But he really couldn't figure out why he was beaten, so he told the truth.

"I don't know, please tell me clearly, Madam!"

Nian Shilan dismissed his attendants and left only Xiao Linzi by his side before speaking.

"I was just testing to see if you had forgotten everything the Dark Guards taught you.

A small Qixiang Palace, is it possible that you can't enter it?"

An San then realized that he was whipped twice because he did not follow up on what happened that day.

He complained in his heart, it was because of the guards that day!

But then he thought again, that day he was in a hurry to eat the roast goose that Xiao Linzi prepared for him.

He thought he was just a small eunuch and would not cause any big waves.

He is a killer trained by the Secret Guard Battalion, so he can easily kill anyone he wants!

The reason why I was picked by Concubine Hua was entirely because I held back!

No, the one I am loyal to is the Emperor. Strictly speaking, Concubine Hua is not my master!
An San thought this and that at times, but in the end he thought, forget it, it was his fault for eating so many delicious foods in Yikun Palace.

If you receive a reward from someone, you will be grateful; if you receive a reward from someone, you will be grateful. Just take the beating.

At least Concubine Hua showed some mercy and didn't beat him hard.

An San thought of this and raised his head with a tragic look on his face.

"I know I was wrong! I will go and keep an eye on Qixiang Palace now!"

Nian Shilan was very satisfied with An San's appearance at this moment. She did not miss the time when An San was daydreaming just now.

Nian Shilan knew very well that this secret guard was loyal to Yinzhen.

But from now on, Nian Shilan wants him to know that she is also his master!

"Okay, get up. Since you know you're wrong, you should use your brain when you do things from now on. I've asked the kitchen to make your favorite pearl eight-treasure duck today, and I'll ask Xiao Linzi to send it to your room later."

An San stood up and stood aside with his head down, feeling sad.

I felt like I had fallen into some kind of trap, but I couldn't tell why.

Since Fu Changzai had a miscarriage, Jingpin visited Fu Changzai almost every day.

That day, Concubine Jing came to Chuxiu Palace again.

"This servant pays respects to Madam Jingpin. May Madam Jingpin be blessed with good fortune."

Fu Changzai's maid Ximei paid her respects to Jingpin.

Jingpin nodded and walked straight towards Fuchang's inner room.

Ximei Road.

"Please forgive me, Madam Jingpin. Our young master is still asleep. Please allow me to go in and wake her up, and then you can go in."

Concubine Jing paused and stopped.

"It's already noon, and your young master is still sleeping?

But what's wrong with your body? Have you asked the imperial physician to come and see you?"

Ximei lowered her eyebrows and eyes and said obediently.

"Thank you for your concern, Madam. Our young master has not been sleeping well these past two nights.
I slept a little during the day.

The young master said it was not a big deal and would be fine after two days of rest."

Jingpin pondered for a moment before speaking.

"Oh~ If you can't sleep well at night, you should ask the imperial physician to check it out.

This morning, I cooked this Qianjin Yiqi Soup.
Aged ginseng is specially added to it.

Since your young master is still asleep, I won’t disturb you.

Keep this soup and heat it up for your young lady when she wakes up.

After a miscarriage, the body is most vulnerable to qi deficiency, so it is time to replenish it.”

After Jingpin finished speaking, without waiting for Ximei to speak, she asked Ruyi to put down the soup and turned to leave Chuxiu Palace.

Ximei's gentle voice came from behind.

"Your servant respectfully sends off Lady Jingpin~"

Fu Changzai was leaning on the bed in the inner room, with a diamond-patterned quilt covering her below the waist.

He wore a sable-skin coat on his upper body, with no decoration on his head except for a sapphire blue headband to protect his forehead from the wind.

She held a bowl of bird's nest in her hands, staring intently at the patterns embroidered on the bed curtains.

Ximei brought the tonic soup sent by Jingpin and stood beside Fuchang's bed.

"My lady, this is the nourishing soup sent by Concubine Jing. She said it is good for your health."

Fu Changzai turned around, looked at the porcelain cup with a painting of a rich peony, and said lightly.

"I don't want to drink. Drinking this stuff all day won't make me any better."

Ximei Road.

"Empress Jingpin has been coming here quite frequently these days, and has been sending gifts quite frequently as well.

In addition to the gifts from the Emperor and the Empress,
Almost all of them were sent by Concubine Jing."

Fu Changzai smiled sadly, stared straight into Ximei's eyes and said.

"Look, aren't these things in our palace much richer now?"

Ximei was frightened by Fu Changzai's eyes and dared not say a word.

Happiness often lies in taking care of oneself.

"These are all exchanged for my children. The emperor has many women around him, and many of them are able to give birth.

So he gave me the reward just to appease me and stop me from making trouble.

The Queen rewards me with gifts because of the Emperor, otherwise who would I be?
As for Concubine Jing, she felt guilty and wanted to forgive Princess Kangle.

But I never blamed Princess Kang Le at all from beginning to end.
Besides, given my status, I dare not blame the princess of our Qing Dynasty.

You see, Jingpin took it for granted that I would bear a grudge, and that’s why she used these things every day to try to shut me up.”
