Chapter 367: Guar Jia Wen Yuan 51

Caiyue's face was pale, her lips trembled, and she finally uttered a complete sentence after a long while: "Zhen promised...Zhen promised her..."

"What's wrong with Huan'er? Tell me quickly!" Shen Meizhuang was extremely anxious, and an ominous premonition came to her mind.

"Wan she...she...was raped by the emperor...by the emperor..." Caiyue burst into tears. Her intermittent words made Shen Meizhuang's heart sink to the bottom in an instant.

"What happened to the emperor? Tell me!" Shen Meizhuang's voice became sharp because of fear.

Caiyue took a deep breath and said with all her might, "Zhen Da Ying...was beaten to death by the Emperor..."

"what?!"

Shen Meizhuang felt as if struck by lightning. Her eyes went dark, her body swayed, and she almost fainted.

Caiyue quickly supported her, patted her back gently, and comforted her: "My lady, take care of yourself!"

Shen Meizhuang slumped in the chair powerlessly, with Jinxi's words echoing in her mind: beaten to death with sticks... beaten to death with sticks... That bright and lively woman, the one who had a deep sisterly relationship with her, Huan'er, had actually died like this?

impossible! This is absolutely impossible!

Shen Meizhuang only felt that her vision was getting darker and Caiyue's scream seemed to come from the horizon, distant and unreal.

"Young Master, Young Master!" Caiyue shook Shen Meizhuang's shoulders vigorously, trying to wake her up.

"Don't scare me, my servant!"

Shen Meizhuang's eyelashes trembled, and she finally slowly opened her eyes. She looked at Caiyue blankly, and after a while she found her voice and asked hoarsely: "Caiyue, you said... Huan'er..."

"My lady, I know you are sad, but you have to take care of yourself! Zhen promised her... She has already passed away, and it will be useless for you to be sad!"

As Caiyue spoke, tears began to flow.

Shen Meizhuang leaned weakly on the back of the chair, tears silently sliding down her cheeks. How could this happen?

Huan Er was fine a few days ago, how come she suddenly...

"Where is the emperor? What did the emperor say?" Shen Meizhuang grabbed Caiyue's arm tightly, her nails almost digging into her flesh.

Caiyue felt pain but dared not cry out. She could only endure the pain and said, "The Emperor... The Emperor... was furious and ordered that Concubine Zhen... be beaten to death in front of the Yangxin Palace. I'm afraid she has already been dragged away twice!"

"Beating to death..." Shen Meizhuang murmured to herself. The pretty and bright face of Zhen Huan appeared in her mind, but now she had turned into a handful of earth.

"Why is the emperor so cruel..." Shen Meizhuang burst into tears.

"I heard... I heard that it was... the Imperial Concubine..." Caiyue hesitated for a moment, but still told her the news she had heard.

"Zhen agreed to run away from the cold palace, saying that she was going to plead for mercy for the Zhen family, but she offended the Imperial Concubine and the Emperor's child, so..."

"Imperial Concubine..." Shen Meizhuang murmured. The graceful and elegant face appeared in her mind, and her heart felt cold.

"Yes." Caiyue said in a low voice.

"The Imperial Concubine is pregnant with the Emperor's heir, and she is extremely precious. Zhen promised to offend her, so the Emperor is naturally furious..."

Shen Meizhuang smiled bitterly, yes, the royal heir, another royal heir!

Wasn't it because Huan'er was pregnant with the royal heir that she had a miscarriage caused by the vicious Concubine Hua, which ultimately resulted in two deaths?

Now, the same tragedy is happening again, and she can only watch helplessly!

"My lady." Cai Yue saw Shen Meizhuang's pale face and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"

Shen Meizhuang shook her head and said weakly, "I'm fine, I'm just a little tired and want to be alone for a while."

Seeing this, Caiyue said no more and quietly retreated. Before leaving, she did not forget to considerately close the door for Shen Meizhuang.

Shen Meizhuang sat alone in the empty room, feeling cold all over, as if she was in an ice cellar.

Why? Why do good people always get no good rewards? Why did Huan'er end up in such a tragic way?

Is it true that there is no true love at all in this harem?

Do not!

Shen Meizhuang stood up suddenly, a gleam of determination flashing in her eyes.

She can't just sit there and wait to die, she wants to avenge Huan'er, she wants those who killed Huan'er to pay the price they deserve!

Shen Meizhuang clenched her fists, her nails digging deep into her palms, but the pain was not even one ten-thousandth of what she felt in her heart. She wanted revenge, for Huan'er and for herself!

But she knew that in this harem where people are eaten without leaving any bones, it was far from enough to just rely on courage and resentment. She needed an opportunity, an opportunity to turn Guarjia Wenyuan and even the entire harem upside down.

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Yinzhen was reviewing memorials to the emperor while Wen Yuan was leaning on the couch, bored, fiddling with her nails from time to time.

Suddenly, as if she remembered something, she straightened up abruptly and said in a tender voice, "Your Majesty, it's getting hot. When are we going to the Old Summer Palace to escape the heat?"

Yinzhen paused with his pen, raised his eyes to look at Wen Yuan, and seeing her charming and sweet eyes, his heart suddenly softened.

He put down the memorial in his hand, walked to her side with a smile, pinched her upturned nose, and said lovingly: "Your little head is always thinking about playing. The Old Summer Palace has been packed up, and I have the same idea. Let's set off the day after tomorrow, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Wen Yuan immediately smiled and threw herself into Yinzhen's arms, saying coquettishly, "Your Majesty is the best! I knew that Your Majesty loves me the most!"

Yinzhen was pleased with her behavior, laughed out loud, and hugged her tightly in his arms.

The next morning, a huge procession set out from the palace and headed for the Old Summer Palace.

Although Yinzhen said that she was noisy, his eyes were full of doting and he patiently answered every one of her questions.

Yinzhen was indeed very considerate. He was afraid that Wen Yuan would have a bumpy journey, so he ordered people to carefully protect her all the way, fearing that she would get bumped or bruised.

Wen Yuan, however, did not care and was still full of energy. She would lift the curtain to look at the scenery, and then pester Yinzhen to eat candied fruit, serving the emperor till he was completely delighted.

"Your Majesty, what kind of flower is that? It's so beautiful!" Wen Yuan asked excitedly, pointing to a golden sea of ​​flowers outside the window.

Yinzhen reluctantly put down the memorial in his hand and followed her gaze, only to see a field of golden rapeseed flowers shining brightly in the sun. "That's rapeseed, not some rare variety."

"Rapeseed flowers?" A hint of doubt flashed in Wen Yuan's eyes.

"What kind of flower is rapeseed? Can it be eaten?"

Yinzhen was amused by her innocent question and scratched her nose lovingly.

"You little greedy cat, all you think about is eating. Rapeseed flowers are of course not edible, but they can be used to extract oil."

"Oil pressing?" Wen Yuan was even more confused.

"Why use beautiful flowers to extract oil? What a pity!"
