Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

Inside the house, green smoke curled up from the incense burner.

Concubine Zhen gently put the freshly prepared spices on the table, looked up at Xi Xiang who was standing not far away, and asked with a complicated expression.

"Did she really say that?"

Xixiang responded respectfully.

"The servant girl dare not lie to the empress, everything the servant girl said is true.

The red bean really picked the bowl of chicken soup cooked by the empress at once.

She also said the taste of the bowl of chicken soup reminded her of her sister. "

Hearing this, Concubine Zhen has not spoken for a long time.

The ingredients she used to stew the soup were exactly the same as those used by the cooks, so it stands to reason that the chicken soup they stewed should also taste the same.

However, that woman could easily choose the bowl of chicken soup she made from the four bowls of chicken soup.

It would be too far-fetched to say it was a coincidence.

Xi Xiang was full of confusion, but she didn't dare to interrupt the concubine's thoughts, so she could only lower her head and wait quietly.

After a long time, she heard the imperial concubine ask a question.

"Did she say anything else?"

Xi Xiang said truthfully: "She said that she misses the days when she was with her sister very much."

Concubine Zhen looked down at the spices in the porcelain cup.

Chicken soup is just a means for her to test.

Judging from the results, the woman did not lie, she was probably Hua Manman.

But Concubine Zhen still couldn't make up her mind to believe that she was the second younger sister.

Xi Xiang waited for a long time, and suddenly heard the imperial concubine mutter something.

"Is there really anyone in this world who can come back from the dead?"

There were only the two of them in the room, and Xi Xiang guessed that the imperial concubine should be asking her, so she answered honestly.

"My servant has never seen such a thing as resurrection from the dead with my own eyes, but I heard that the regent king had been resurrected from the dead, and he was brought back to life in front of the saint and the empress dowager. Many people in the palace know about this, so they probably won't There are fakes."

These words awakened Concubine Zhen.

yes! At the beginning, the imperial doctors said that the regent was dead, but within a few days, he came back to life.

She was at the scene at the time and witnessed the scene with her own eyes. It cannot be fake!

Since the regent can bring the dead back to life, why can't Hua Manman?

Concubine Zhen's heart gradually became biased.

She raised her right hand.

Xi Xiang immediately walked over, held the hand of the imperial concubine, and helped her stand up.

The master and servant walked out.

...

After Xi Xiang left, Hua Manman ran to the window quickly, trying to push the window, but found that the window was closed from the outside.

No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't push the window open.

There was no way, Hua Manman could only lie on the window and shouted outside.

"Xiaohua, Tongzi, are you still there?"

Soon there was the familiar meowing of a cat outside the window.

Meow~

The meowing sound entered Huamanman's ears, and it automatically became the sound of the system.

"I'm here!"

Hua Manman: "I can't open this window, can you open it for me?"

As long as she can open the window, she can climb out of the window and escape from this place.

There was the sound of metal being struck outside the window, followed by the meowing of the Sanhua cat.

Meow meow meow!

"The outside of the window is locked, and I don't have a key, so I can't open it."

Huamanman is very disappointed.

It seems that Concubine Zhen has learned her previous lesson and locked the window this time, making it impossible for her to escape.

But soon she cheered up again.

There is no unparalleled road, she can always find a way to escape!

Hua Manman: "Where are Mrs. Zhong Amber and Goudan? How are they doing?"

System: "Don't worry, they've all left the palace. If nothing else happens, Mrs. Uncle should have sent Goudan out of the city."

Hualong let out a long sigh of relief.

"That's good."

As long as Li Xun can leave Tianjing City, he can join Princess Rouwan.

At that time, Princess Rouwan will take him to find Li Ji.

System: "What do you do next?"

Hua Manman replied with one word——

"Wait."

The system is puzzled: "What are you waiting for?"

Hua Manman: "Wait for her to come to me."

Before the system could ask who "she" was, footsteps sounded outside the door.

someone is coming!

Hua Manman immediately returned to the bedside and sat down, putting on an anxious look.

The door was pushed open from the outside.

Xi Xiang helped Concubine Zhen and walked in.

Hua Manman got up quickly: "Imperial Concubine!"

Concubine Zhen's eyes wandered past her face.

No matter how many times I look at it, she and the second sister look different.

But the strange thing is that there is a very familiar aura about her.

Every time she sees her, Concubine Zhen can't help but think of her second sister.

Perhaps, this is the fetters of blood.

Concubine Zhen opened her mouth slowly: "I heard that you miss your sister very much, Bengong? In fact, I also have a younger sister. I miss her very much. Because she has a lively personality, like a puppy, Bengong There is also a puppy at home, named Dabai."

Hua Manman blinked his eyes and said in a daze.

"My sister didn't have a dog before. I remember that my sister had a cat, and her name was not Dabai, but Xiaobai."

Concubine Zhen naturally remembered that she had never thought about dogs.

She made a mistake on purpose and wanted to test the other party.

The other party's reaction was very natural, and there was no trace of lying at all.

Concubine Zhen was even more convinced of her identity.

"I had quarreled with my younger sister before, and slapped my younger sister when I lost control of my emotions. I felt guilty for a long time for this."

Hua Manman became more and more confused: "Didn't I slap my sister?"

Concubine Zhen looked at her steadily.

"Back then, King Dongyang and Concubine Xian launched a palace coup, and Bengong and Qiong'er were imprisoned in Chaoyang Palace. Qiong'er fell ill, but somehow recovered later. Do you know why?"

What else could it be?

Naturally, it was because Li Qiong took the Resurrection Pill.

But Hua Manman couldn't say that.

She could only keep silent.

Concubine Zhen: "At first, I thought that it was God who cared for Qiong'er to make him recover from his serious illness. After thinking about it carefully, I realized the clue. Qiong'er's condition quickly improved after the second sister came, and The second younger sister doesn't look surprised at all, and the second younger sister seems to be hiding a lot of secrets."

At the end, she showed a meaningful expression.

Hua Manman guiltily avoids her sight.

Concubine Zhen: "If you are really the second younger sister, I have something to ask you."

Hua Manman: "What's the matter?"

Concubine Zhen: "Since you didn't die, why didn't you come back to find Bengong? If you weren't forced to nowhere, wouldn't you never plan to confess the truth to Bengong?"

Her words were neither fast nor slow, but anyone who knew her well could tell that she was really angry.

Hua Manman: "You are living a very good life now, I don't want to disturb your life rashly."

Concubine Zhen laughed out loud as if she heard some funny joke.

"Oh! I blame myself day and night because of your death, but you still think I'm doing well?"
