Chapter 288 The Legend of Zhen Huan Original Female Lead 72
Su Peisheng: This emperor is really double-standard. Why didn’t you say this when the imperial concubine was crying?
"I asked you which palace you are from. What's wrong? Are you mute?!" His tone was cold, without a trace of emotion.
Chu Huan who was standing by saw it all and sneered in her heart, "Oh, this An Lingrong, her skill in pretending to be weak is really perfect. It's a pity that she has run into trouble today."
But...the queen can't wait any longer?
This Yinzhen is not a man who is gentle and considerate to women. What's more, she has to show her good performance here today to let him see what true "gentleness" is.
"Your Majesty, this sister looks unfamiliar. It's possible that you don't remember her because you are busy." Chu Huan said softly. As she spoke, she gently stroked Yinzhen's chest, as if she was comforting an angry lion.
Yinzhen was indeed calmed down by her gentle tone. He looked down at the lovely girl in his arms and softened his tone: "Huan'er is right. I am busy with many things every day. How can I remember so many people?"
When An Lingrong heard Yinzhen address Chu Huan, her nails almost dug into her flesh.
Huan'er? The Emperor actually called her Huan'er? !
The flame of jealousy burned fiercely in An Lingrong's heart. She bit her lower lip, trying hard not to lose her composure.
An Lingrong secretly groaned in her heart. The emperor really had forgotten who she was, and it seemed that this new imperial concubine was really capable.
She concealed the resentment in her eyes and spoke softly, "I promised An Shi that, with the Emperor's mercy, I would be given the title of An Changzai..."
"An Changzai? Who is An Changzai?" Yinzhen interrupted her impatiently, as if she was some dirty thing that he could not avoid.
"Your Majesty..." An Lingrong's tears came suddenly, and the crystal clear tears slid down her cheeks like pearls with a broken string. Seeing this, Su Peisheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart: With such acting skills, it would be a pity if she didn't go to sing.
An Lingrong was still trying hard to hold back her tears, trying to arouse a little sympathy from Yinzhen.
This tearful look might seem pitiful to others, but in Yinzhen's eyes, it just looked extremely artificial.
He hated such pretentious women the most, but there were a lot of them in the harem.
"Enough!" Yinzhen snorted impatiently.
"Are you crying? I'm not dead yet!"
An Lingrong was so frightened that she trembled all over. She quickly stopped crying, knelt on the ground trembling, and dared not say another word.
"Your Majesty, rest your anger."
Upon seeing this, Chu Huan spoke softly, her voice so gentle that it seemed like it could squeeze water out of it.
As she spoke, she casually reached out and stroked the pearl hairpin on her temples, revealing the emerald green jade bracelet on her wrist.
This bracelet was given to her by Yinzhen a few days ago, who said it was a unique treasure in the palace and that seeing the bracelet was like seeing the person.
An Lingrong naturally also saw the bracelet, and her jealousy grew even stronger.
She was selected to enter the palace, so logically speaking, her seniority should be older than this imperial concubine. So why hasn't she ever seen the emperor since she entered the palace?
As for Chu Huan, she was made a noble concubine as soon as she arrived, and now she is the only one favored by the emperor. Even she, a concubine, has to call herself "sister" in front of her. It is simply outrageous!
Chu Huan naturally noticed the jealousy in An Lingrong's eyes, but she didn't care. Instead, she smiled.
"Your Majesty, you see, An Da Ying is so frightened that she dares not speak. Please don't punish her, okay?" Chu Huan shook Yinzhen's arm, her tone coquettish, as if she was acting like a spoiled child.
Yinzhen couldn't stand her like this, and immediately softened his heart and spoke in a much more gentle tone: "You are too kind, that's why you let these ungrateful people get on your head."
"Your Majesty is right. I will pay attention to it in the future." Chu Huan responded obediently.
But she sneered in her heart. Pay attention? Of course she would pay attention, but not to these jumping clowns, but to pay attention to...
"Let's go, don't dirty my eyes!"
Yinzhen waved his sleeves impatiently, as if An Lingrong was something disgusting.
An Lingrong didn't dare to say anything else. She could only bite her lip and retreat pitifully.
"Let's go, I'll take you to a good place." Yinzhen said, taking Chu Huan's hand and leading her to the depths of the Old Summer Palace without giving her a chance to refuse.
An Lingrong watched the two men leave, her fists clenched so tightly that her teeth were almost broken.
You Chu Hua, you are so arrogant just because of your beauty! She secretly swore that one day, she would return the humiliation she suffered today a hundredfold!
Deep in the Old Summer Palace, there is a clear lake with rippling waves on the surface. A few mandarin ducks are playing in the water, and the scenery is breathtaking.
Yinzhen ordered people to prepare the pleasure boat, and he helped Chuhuan onto the boat.
The pleasure boat slowly sailed into the lake, and the breeze blew, bringing with it the fragrance of lotus. Yinzhen ordered people to serve fine wine and delicious food, and the two sat opposite each other and drank.
But Chuhua's portion was juice. Chuhua had just recovered from a serious illness, so Yinzhen would not let her drink alcohol.
"The fish in this lake are not even half as agile as Chu Huan." Yinzhen raised his glass and stared at Chu Huan with burning eyes, as if he wanted to suck her in completely.
Chu Huan smiled softly, her eyes seductive: "Your Majesty always makes fun of me. I am not as good as your Majesty says."
"If I say you are good, you are the best in the world." Yinzhen said, putting a peeled grape to Chuhuan's lips.
"Come, have a taste. These are the new tribute grapes this year. They are the sweetest and most delicious."
Chu Huan opened her mouth slightly and took the grape into her mouth. A stream of sweet juice instantly burst out in her mouth. She squinted her eyes in satisfaction, like a lazy cat.
"Your Majesty, you are so good to me." Chu Huan snuggled in Yinzhen's arms, her tone soft and tender, which made Yinzhen's heart flutter.
"Silly girl, you are my woman. If I don't treat you well, who should I treat well?" Yinzhen gently stroked Chuhuan's long hair, his eyes full of pampering.
The pleasure boat floated slowly on the lake, and the affection between the two people gradually warmed up along with the beauty of the lake.
"Your Majesty, what do you see that?" Chu Huan pointed at a lotus bush not far away and asked in surprise.
Yinzhen followed her gaze and saw a few lotus buds swaying gently in the breeze.
"They are just a few lotus flowers. What's so good about them?" Yinzhen said indifferently.
"Your Majesty, please take a closer look. Is that lotus different from the others?" Chu Huan said, with a cunning gleam in her eyes.
Yinzhen was aroused by her curiosity and looked at the lotus flowers again. He was stunned when he saw them.
I saw a few words faintly emerging on the petals of the lotus flowers.
"Holding your hand, and growing old with you." Yinzhen read out every word with a hint of disbelief in his voice.
