Chapter 490 [The Legend of Zhen Huan 25]

"Come on, aunt, accompany me to see what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of Concubine Xiang?" Youyou raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a smile, and said to Fanghua beside her.

"Okay, I have nothing to do anyway, so I will accompany the master to join in the fun." Fanghua responded with a smile.

In the front hall of Chengqian Palace, Zi Yuan brought Xiang Guiren into the palace and said softly, "Guo Ren, please wait here for a while, drink some tea, and taste some snacks. The Queen will come to see you later."

Xiang Guiren was worried and looked a little uneasy. She nodded gently and responded politely, "Thank you, young lady. I will wait here for a moment."

At this moment, a voice came from outside the door: "The Concubine Shu is here!"

Youyou was seen wearing a gorgeous purple palace dress, supported by two maids on each hand and walking slowly. She had a pretty face and elegant temperament, and attracted everyone's attention as soon as she appeared.

Youyou walked up to Concubine Xiang, looked at her, raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and asked calmly: "Concubine Xiang, why did you come to see me today? I don't think I have much experience with you in my memory."

When Concubine Xiang heard that Youyou was coming, she stood up quickly, bowed to her respectfully and said, "Your concubine pays homage to the Queen. May the Queen be blessed with good health!" Then she performed a standard bow to show her respect for Youyou.

However, Youyou smiled and responded, "Lady Xiang, although the emperor has made me the queen, the canonization ceremony has not yet been held, so I am still a concubine. So, please don't call me the queen yet, wait until the official canonization."

Hearing what Youyou said, Xiang Guiren immediately knelt on the ground and said in fear and trepidation: "It was my fault. I just thought that since Your Majesty has been made Queen, you will be called this sooner or later, so I called it out in advance. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Youyou asked someone to help Xiang Guiren up and said gently, "Xiang Guiren, please stand up quickly and don't kneel down every time you see me. If the emperor sees you, he might think that I bullied you."

Xiang Guiren was filled with gratitude and said, "Thank you for your understanding, it is all my fault for causing you to misunderstand."

"Lady Xiang, is there something you want to talk to me about?" Youyou leaned lazily on the chair, looking at the person in front of her with a half-smile, her eyes full of inquiry.

Xiang Guiren's face was filled with fear. She knelt on the ground tremblingly, lowering her head and not daring to look directly at her: "Your Majesty, I just want to ask for your protection. I don't ask for anything else, I just hope that Wen Yi can grow up safely. If possible, I can put Wen Yi on your lap."

Hearing this, Youyou raised her eyebrows, curled her lips slightly, and revealed a sneer: "What does Xiang Guiren mean? Do you want Wen Yi to become the legitimate daughter? It's not like I can't have children, so why should I adopt one?"

After hearing this, Xiang Guiren's face turned pale, and she quickly shook her head to deny it, "No, no, no, your Majesty has misunderstood. This concubine did not mean that. I just hope that Wen Yi can get your blessing and grow up safely."

Youyou narrowed her eyes slightly, sizing up Xiang Guiren, a trace of disdain and disgust flashed in her eyes: "Xiang Guiren, I remember that you were someone close to Concubine Hua before, but now you come to me for help. It's really ridiculous! What I hate most is people who betray their masters. Xiang Guiren, don't you know that what I hate most is people who betray their masters? Xiang Guiren has committed this mistake. If you follow Hua Gui well, I can still look up to you. As a result, I am afraid that after I accept you, you will stab me in the back."

After saying that, Youyou stood up, looked at Xiang Guiren coldly, and turned and left.

"Ziyuan, please see me off. I need to rest now."

When Xiang Guiren heard this, her face turned pale, and her heart was filled with despair and helplessness. She knew she had no way out and could only leave silently.

"My lord, please come in." Zi Yuan said lightly, with a distant and indifferent tone in her voice.

Concubine Xiang was helped out of Chengqian Palace by her personal maid.

Youyou returned to the inner room, and Fanghua said, "I was wondering what Lady Xiang was planning. It turns out that she had this idea, to raise the illegitimate princess by the side of the queen. Even if she is not recorded as a legitimate princess, she is almost the same as a legitimate princess."

"Master, you might as well not meet Concubine Xiang. You can't meet such a person." Zi Xuan said.

"I got it. Zixuan, go to Yikun Palace and report this matter to Concubine Hua. After all, it was her own people who wanted to stab her in the back. Ask her to discipline them and also ask her to pay attention to the people around her, so that she doesn't get sold out one day without knowing it." Youyou said.

"Yes, your majesty." Zi Xuan replied, then turned and left.

"Master, are you doing this to show your goodwill to Concubine Hua?" Fanghua asked doubtfully.

"Of course not. I just don't want to see Concubine Hua being betrayed by her confidants." Youyou said lightly.

"Master, do you think Concubine Hua will appreciate your kindness? She won't think you are showing off to her, will she?" Fanghua asked with a puzzled look on her face.

"I believe that Concubine Hua will definitely understand what I mean, and her brother should have sent her a letter from home, asking her not to go against me." Youyou answered confidently.

"The master is smart." Fanghua couldn't help but admire.

At the same time, in the Yangxin Palace, Su Peisheng hurried over to report: "Your Majesty, Concubine Xiang went to the Empress's palace."

Yinzhen frowned, feeling very strange: "Lady Xiang, what is she doing at Qingqing's place?" This person has never met Youyou before, and suddenly she went to show her courtesy, so she must have some ulterior motive. No, I have to go over and see. Youyou doesn't understand the intrigues in the palace, so I have to go and help her deal with it. Thinking of this, Yinzhen decisively ordered: "Su Peisheng, go to Chengqian Palace."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Su Peisheng responded quickly and turned around to make arrangements.
